Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On June 24, 2009 (the “Closing Date”), Terremark Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), completed its previously announced offering of $420,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 12.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (the “Notes”), which are guaranteed (the “Guarantees” and, together with the Notes, the “Securities”) by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). Additionally, the Notes are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, including the pledge of 100% of all outstanding capital stock of each of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of all outstanding capital stock of substantially all the Company’s foreign subsidiaries (such security interests and pledges, together, the “Security Interests”). The Securities were offered and sold in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers in the United States in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.
     The Securities were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated June 24, 2009 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Indenture is described under Item 2.03 below, which is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
     The Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be sold except in a transaction registered under, or exempt from, the registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. On the Closing Date, the Company and the Guarantors entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company and the Guarantors have agreed for the benefit of the holders of the Securities to use their best efforts to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and cause to become effective a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) with respect to a registered offer to exchange the Securities for an issue of the Company’s senior secured notes (the “Exchange Notes”) guaranteed by the Guarantors (the “Exchange Note Guarantees” and, together with the Exchange Notes, the “Exchange Securities”) with terms identical to the Notes, except that the Exchange Notes will not bear legends restricting transfer and will not contain terms providing for the payment of additional interest as described below and in the Registration Rights Agreement. In addition, we have agreed to file, in certain circumstances, a shelf registration statement covering resales of the Securities.
     If the exchange offer for the Notes is not completed on or prior to the 210th day following the Closing Date, the interest rate on the Notes will increase by 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period thereafter, and the amount of such additional interest will increase by an additional 0.25% per annum for each subsequent 90-day period, up to a maximum of 1.0% per annum over the original interest rate on the Notes (“Additional Interest”). Additional Interest will also become payable if any of the following occurs: (i) our failure to file with the Commission the Exchange Offer Registration Statement on or prior to the 90th day following the Closing Date; (ii) our failure to file with the Commission a shelf registration statement on or prior to the 30th day following the occurrence of an event requiring that we file a shelf registration statement; (iii) if on or prior to the 180th day following the Closing Date, neither the Exchange Offer Registration Statement nor a shelf registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission; (iv) if on or prior to the 210th day following the Closing Date a shelf registration statement, if required in lieu of Exchange Offer Registration Statement, has not been declared effective by the Commission; or (v) if either the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or a shelf registration statement that has been declared effective ceases to be effective. Additional Interest shall cease to accrue and become payable: (i) following our cure of any of the foregoing conditions, as applicable; (ii) on any Exchange

Securities; (iii) on Securities that cease to be outstanding; or (iv) after the Securities (x) become freely transferable without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act by persons that are not our affiliates (provided that the one-year holding period specified by Rule 144(d)(1)(ii) has been satisfied), (y) do not bear any restrictive legends and (z) do not bear a restrictive CUSIP number.
     On the Closing Date, in connection with the grant of the Security Interests to U.S. Bank National Association, as collateral trustee (the “Collateral Trustee”), for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, the Company and the Guarantors entered into each of (i) that certain Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”)with the Collateral Trustee; (ii) that certain Intellectual Property Security Agreement with the Collateral Trustee (the “IP Security Agreement”); and (iii) that certain Collateral Trust Agreement with the Trustee, the Collateral Trustee and the other Secured Debt Representatives from time to time party thereto (the “Collateral Trust Agreement”), which Collateral Trust Agreement sets forth the terms on which the Collateral Trustee will receive, hold, administer, maintain, enforce and distribute the proceeds of all liens on the collateral securing the Notes and the Guarantees.
     The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement, Security Agreement, IP Security Agreement and Collateral Trust Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, Security Agreement, IP Security Agreement and Collateral Trust Agreement, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1, Exhibit 10.2, Exhibit 10.3 and Exhibit 10.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and each of which is incorporated by reference in this Item 1.01.
Item 1.02   Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On the Closing Date, we used a portion of the net proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes to repay in full (the “Repayment”) all amounts outstanding under our $150,000,000 first lien credit agreement (the “First Lien Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, Credit Suisse, Societe Generale and the lenders from time to time party thereto and our $100,000,000 second lien credit agreement (the “Second Lien Credit Agreement” and, together with the First Lien Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”) among the Company and Credit Suisse, together with all interest accrued thereon. Upon effecting the Repayment, each of the Credit Agreements were terminated. Also terminated were the documents and instruments related to the Credit Agreements pursuant to which we had granted for the benefit of the lenders under the Credit Agreements a first priority security interest, in the case of the First Lien Credit Agreement, and a second priority security interest, in the case of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, in substantially all of our and our domestic subsidiaries’ assets, including a pledge of 66% of all of the equity interests in substantially all of our foreign subsidiaries (such related documents and instruments, the “Related Documents”). Those provision of the Credit Agreements and the Related Documents that expressly provide for the survival of obligations thereunder will survive the termination of such agreements.
     In connection with the Repayment, we paid a 2.0% call premium in an amount equal to approximately $2.2 million in respect of the amounts outstanding under the Second Lien Credit Agreement. Additionally, we paid approximately $8.4 million in connection with the termination of certain interest rate swap agreements that we had entered into in connection with the Credit Agreements.

Item 2.03   Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
     The Notes issued as described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K are our general secured obligations, secured by first-priority liens on the collateral securing the Notes and rank equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior secured indebtedness that is secured on an equal basis with the Notes. To the extent that any liens on the collateral securing the Notes were not perfected as of the Closing Date, the Company must use its reasonable best efforts to promptly perfect such security interests; provided that the Company must in any event perfect such interests no later than 60 days following the Closing Date. The Notes bear interest at 12.0% per annum, payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2009.
     At any time prior to June 15, 2012, we may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes at a redemption price equal to 112.000% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, with the net cash proceeds of certain sales of our capital stock; provided that (i) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes remains outstanding immediately after such redemption, and (ii) the redemption occurs within 120 days of the date of the closing of such sale of our capital stock.
     At any time prior to June 15, 2013, we may redeem all or a part of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus a “make-whole” premium, or Applicable Premium (as defined in the Indenture), as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.
     Additionally, on or after June 15, 2013, we may redeem all or a part of the Notes on any one or more occasions, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the notes to be redeemed) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on June 15 of each of the years indicated below:
         
Year   Percentage
2013
    106.000 %
2014
    103.000 %
2015 and thereafter
    100.000 %
     The terms of the Indenture generally limit our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) make restricted payments; (ii) incur additional debt and issue preferred or disqualified stock; (iii) create liens; (iv) create or permit to exist restrictions on our ability or the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to make certain payments or distributions; (v) engage in sale-leaseback transactions; (vi) engage in mergers or consolidations or transfer all or substantially all of our assets; (vii) make certain dispositions and transfers of assets; and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.
     Following the first day that the Notes are assigned an investment grade rating by both Moody’s and S&P, and provided that no default has occurred and is continuing, certain of the restrictions described above will be suspended, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the incurrence of debt, restricted payments, transactions with affiliates and certain restrictions on mergers, consolidations and sales of assets.

     Pursuant to the Indenture, we may incur certain additional indebtedness, including up to $50.0 under credit facilities that may be used for any purpose, rank pari passu with the Notes and which may be secured by parity liens on the collateral securing the Notes. Also, we may incur up to $75.0 million of additional junior indebtedness for the purpose of financing the purchase price or cost of construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment, including the acquisition of the capital stock of an entity that becomes a restricted subsidiary. Any or all of such $75.0 million of additional indebtedness may be secured by parity liens on the collateral securing the Notes, provided that our secured leverage ratio does not exceed 3:75 to 1 on a pro-forma basis as if we had incurred such indebtedness at and as of the beginning of our most recently completed four fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available. Irrespective of our leverage ratio, any or all of such $75.0 million of additional indebtedness may be secured by junior liens on the collateral securing the Notes.
     Any additional indebtedness permitted by the Indenture may rank pari passu with the Notes, provided that our fixed charge coverage ratio would have been at least 2.0 to 1 on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom) as if such indebtedness had been incurred at and as of the beginning of our most recently completed four fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available.
     In the event of a change in control, we will be required to commence and consummate an offer to purchase all Notes then outstanding at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest (if any), to the date of repurchase. Additionally, if we or a Guarantor sell assets, all or a portion of the net proceeds of which are not reinvested in accordance with the terms of the Indenture or are not used to repay certain debt, we will be required to offer to purchase an aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, in an amount equal to such remaining net proceeds, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest and Additional Interest (if any), to the payment date.
     The Indenture provides for customary events of default, which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), among others: nonpayment of principal or interest; breach of covenants or other agreements in the Indenture; defaults under or failure to pay certain other indebtedness; the failure by us or our restricted subsidiaries to pay certain final non-appealable judgments; the failure of certain security interests in the collateral securing the Notes to be in full force and effect; the failure in certain instances of any Guarantee to be in full force and effect; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Indenture, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all the Notes immediately due and payable.
     The foregoing description of the Indenture and the Notes is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Indenture and the form of Note, which are filed as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and each of which is incorporated by reference in this Item 2.03.

THE NOTES
2.01. Form and Dating.
          (a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be issued in registered, global form without interest coupons and only shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; provided that Notes may be issuable in denominations of less than $1,000 solely to the extent necessary to accommodate book-entry positions created in such amounts by the Depositary.
          The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.
          (b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (and shall include the Global Note Legend and the OID Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.07 hereof.
          (c) Regulation S Global Notes. Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of the Legended Regulation S Global Note, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with the Trustee, as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for the accounts of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. Following the termination of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the Legended Regulation S Global Note shall automatically be exchanged for beneficial interests in Unlegended Regulation S Global Notes pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Global Notes may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided.

37


 

          (d) Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Cedel Bank” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Notes that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.
Section 2.02. Execution and Authentication.
          Two Officers of the Company shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.
          If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.
          A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. Such signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.
          The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. The Company may, subject to Article Four of this Indenture and applicable law, issue Additional Notes under this Indenture, including Exchange Notes; provided that the Notes issued on the Closing Date and any such Additional Notes shall be fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Notes issued on the Closing Date and any Additional Notes subsequently issued shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture.
          The Trustee shall, upon a written order of the Company signed by two Officers of the Company (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue on the date hereof of $420.0 million. At any time and from time to time after the execution of this Indenture, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate Notes for original issue in aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order. The Authentication Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated.
          The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Company.

38


 

2.03. Methods of Receiving Payments on the Notes.
          If a Holder has given wire transfer instructions to the Company, the Company shall pay, or cause the Paying Agent to pay, all principal, interest and premium and Additional Interest, if any, on that Holder’s Notes in accordance with those instructions. All other payments on Notes shall be made at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of New York unless the Company elects to make interest payments by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders.
2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent.
          (a) The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.
          (b) The Company initially appoints DTC to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.
          (c) The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.
2.05. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.
          The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium or Additional Interest, if any, or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or one of its Subsidiaries) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or one of its Subsidiaries acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

39


 

2.06. Holder Lists.
          The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a).
Section 2.07. Transfer and Exchange.
          (a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes shall be exchanged (or exchangeable, in the case of a Default or Event of Default covered by clause (iii) below) by the Company for Definitive Notes if (i) DTC (A) notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Notes and the Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after receiving such notice or that it (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and the Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after becoming aware of such condition; (ii) the Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes; or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (i), (ii) or (iii) above, Definitive Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests therein will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures). Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.08 and 2.11 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.07 or Section 2.08 or 2.11 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, except for Definitive Notes issued subsequent to any of the preceding events in (i), (ii) or (iii) above and pursuant to Section 2.07(c) or (e) hereof. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.07(a); however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.07(b) or (c) hereof.
          (b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act.

If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.

Section 2.11. Temporary Notes.
          (a) Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes.

The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment.

Section 2.14. CUSIP Numbers.
          The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

          (c) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated by the Company based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated by the Company at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to this Section 4.09 will not be deemed to be exceeded with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness due solely to the result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.
          (d) The Company shall not Incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinate in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company unless such additional Indebtedness is also contractually subordinate in right of payment to the Notes on substantially identical terms. The Company shall not permit any Guarantor to Incur any Indebtedness that is contractually subordinate in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of such Guarantor unless it is contractually subordinate in right of payment to such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee on substantially identical terms. For purposes of the foregoing, no Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor solely by reason of any Liens or guarantees arising or created in respect thereof or by virtue of the fact that the holders of any secured Indebtedness have entered into intercreditor agreements giving one or more of such holders priority over the other holders in the collateral held by them.
Section 4.10. Asset Sales.
          (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale of any Collateral unless:
     (i) the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the Collateral sold or otherwise disposed of;
     (ii) the Fair Market Value is set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee;

72


 

     (iii) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale of the Collateral by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Permitted Assets constituting Collateral or a combination thereof. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:
     (A) any liabilities, as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities, liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee and liabilities to the extent owed to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability; and
     (B) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that within 180 days are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion; and
     (iv) the consideration (to the extent they are not Excluded Assets) received from such Asset Sale is concurrently added to the Collateral securing the Notes.
          Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale of Collateral, the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may apply those Net Proceeds:
     (i) to repay or prepay Parity Lien Debt (other than the Notes) (and, in the case of revolving loans and other similar obligations, permanently reduce the commitment thereunder) on a pro rata basis, but only up to an aggregate principal amount equal to such Net Proceeds to be used to repay Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (i) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness to be repaid, prepaid, defeased, redeemed, purchased or otherwise retired and the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of all Parity Lien Debt, based on amounts outstanding on the date of closing of such Asset Sale; provided that the Company uses the remaining Net Proceeds to repay Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (i) to make an offer to purchase (an “Asset Sale Offer”) from the Holders of the Notes on a pro rata basis, an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to such remaining Net Proceeds at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the payment date; or
     (ii) to make a capital expenditure on Permitted Assets constituting Collateral or acquire Permitted Assets; provided, however, that such assets are concurrently with their acquisition added to the Collateral securing the Notes;
provided that, in the case of clause (ii) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as such commitment requires that such Net Proceeds shall be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment and such commitment is not terminated or abandoned. Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.

73


 

          Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph shall constitute “Collateral Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, or, at the Company’s option, earlier, the Company shall make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Parity Lien Debt that may be purchased out of the Collateral Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer shall be equal to 100% of principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase (subject to the rights of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest payable on the relevant interest payment date), and shall be payable in cash. If any Collateral Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Collateral Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Parity Lien Debt tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds, the Notes and such other Parity Lien Debt shall be purchased on a pro rata basis based upon the principal amount of the Notes and the other Parity Lien Debt tendered. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.
          (b) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale (other than an Asset Sale of Collateral) unless:
     (i) the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of;
     (ii) the Fair Market Value is set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee; and
     (iii) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Permitted Assets or a combination thereof. For purposes of this provision, each of the following shall be deemed to be cash:
     (A) any liabilities, as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities, liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee and liabilities to the extent owed to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability; and
     (B) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that within 180 days are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion.

74


 

          Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale (other than an Asset Sale of Collateral) pursuant to Section 4.10(b) above, the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may apply those Net Proceeds:
     (i) to repay or prepay secured Indebtedness or any Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Guarantor, in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and, if such Indebtedness is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto,
     (ii) to make a capital expenditure, or
     (iii) to acquire Permitted Assets.
provided that, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as such commitment requires that such Net Proceeds shall be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment and such commitment is not terminated or abandoned. Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.
          Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph shall constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million or earlier at the Company’s option, the Company shall make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer shall be equal to 100% of principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase (subject to the rights of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest payable on the relevant interest payment date), and shall be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Company shall purchase the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.
Section 4.11. Transactions with Affiliates.
          (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless:

75


 

     (i) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company; and
     (ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee:
     (A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $2.5 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.11 and (x) that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company or (y) a copy of an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing; and
     (B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $20.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing.
          (b) The following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a):
     (i) any employment or consulting agreement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary and payments pursuant thereto and the issuance of Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) to directors and employees pursuant to stock option or stock ownership plans;
     (ii) transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;
     (iii) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns directly, or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;
     (iv) payment of reasonable and customary compensation or fees to any directors, or the execution of customary expense reimbursement, indemnification or similar arrangements with any directors and officers, of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;

76


 

     (v) sales or issuances of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates, directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company;
     (vi) Permitted Investments (other than pursuant to clause (3) of the definition of Permitted Investments) and Restricted Payments that are permitted by the provisions of Section 4.07 of this Indenture; and
     (vii) transactions pursuant to written agreements entered into or assumed in connection with acquisitions of other businesses with Persons who were not Affiliates prior to such acquisitions and such transactions are approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company.
Section 4.12. Liens.
          The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien to secure Indebtedness, Obligations in respect thereof or trade payables, on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens; provided that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Liens (in addition to Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness on property or assets that are not Collateral if:
          (a) in the case of any Liens securing Indebtedness that is expressly subordinate or junior in right of payment to the Notes, the Notes are secured by a Lien on such property or assets that is senior in right of priority to such liens; and
          (b) in the case of all Liens securing other Indebtedness, the Notes are equally and ratably secured by a Lien on such property or assets.
Section 4.13. Business Activities.
          The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than a Permitted Business except to such extent as would not be material to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
Section 4.14. Offer to Repurchase upon a Change of Control.
          (a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company has previously or concurrently mailed a redemption notice with respect to all outstanding Notes as described in Section 3.07 hereof, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”). In the Change of Control Offer, the Company shall offer a payment (a “Change of Control Payment”) in cash equal to not less than 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice to the Trustee and each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the change of control payment date specified in the notice (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures described in Section 3.08.

77

     (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;
     (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and
     (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes accepted for purchase together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company.
          (c) The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
          (d) The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.
          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.14, the Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.14 and all other provisions of this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer.
          (f) Notes repurchased by the Company pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall have the status of Notes issued but not outstanding or shall be retired and canceled at the option of the Company. Notes purchased by a third party pursuant to Section 4.14(e) shall have the status of Notes issued and outstanding.
Section 4.15. Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.
          The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transaction; provided that the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may enter into a Sale and Leaseback Transaction if:
          (a) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, could have (i) Incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction and (ii) Incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.12 hereof;

78


 

          (b) the gross cash proceeds of that Sale and Leaseback Transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the property that is the subject of that Sale and Leaseback Transaction; and
          (c) the transfer of assets in that Sale and Leaseback Transaction is permitted by, and the Company applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with, Section 4.10 hereof.
Section 4.16. Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.
          (a) The Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation; provided that:
     (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary so designated (including any guarantee by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary) shall be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and that such Investment would be permitted under Section 4.07 hereof;
     (ii) any guarantee by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof of any Indebtedness of the Subsidiary being so designated shall be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (or both, if applicable) at the time of such designation, and such Incurrence of Indebtedness would be permitted under Section 4.09 hereof; and
     (iii) such Subsidiary does not hold any Liens on any property of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof;
provided, further, that such designation shall only be permitted if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

     (i) such designation shall be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period;
     (ii) all outstanding Investments owned by such Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be made as of the time of such designation and such designation shall only be permitted if such Investments would be permitted under Section 4.07;

Section 4.17. Payments for Consent.
          The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.
Section 4.18. Additional Guarantees.
          (a) If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Domestic Subsidiary on or after the Issue Date, then that newly acquired or created Domestic Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and execute joinders to the Security Documents.
          (b) If any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company guarantees any Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor, then such Restricted Subsidiary shall promptly become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and a joinder agreement to the Security Documents providing for a Note Guarantee and deliver and Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee that such supplemental Indenture and Security Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered and constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations.
          (c) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, any Note Guarantee shall provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged under the circumstances described under Section 11.05 hereof.
Section 4.19. Impairment of Security Interest.
          (a) Subject to the rights of the holders of Permitted Liens, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, take or knowingly or negligently omit to take, any action, which action or omission would or could reasonably be expected to have the result of materially impairing the security interest with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, subject to Section 10.08(a) hereof.

80


 

          (b) The Company shall not amend, modify or supplement, or permit or consent to any amendment, modification or supplement of, the Security Documents in any way that would be adverse to the Holders of the Notes in any material respect, except as described in the Security Documents or as permitted under Section 9.02 hereof.
Section 4.20. After-Acquired Property.
          (a) Promptly following the acquisition by the Company or any Guarantor of any After Acquired Property, the Company or such Guarantor shall execute and deliver such mortgages, deeds of trust, security instruments, financing statements and certificates and Opinions of Counsel as shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the Collateral Trustee a perfected security interest in such After Acquired Property and to have such After Acquired Property added to the Collateral including, but not limited to those items set forth in Section 4.22 hereof, mutatis mutandis, and the Leasing Deliverables, where applicable, in each case, in respect of such After Acquired Property and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such After Acquired Property to the same extent and with the same force and effect.

Section 4.21. Perfection of Liens Securing Collateral; Further Assurances; Insurance.
          (a) On the Issue Date, the Company and the Guarantors shall have used their reasonable best efforts to perfect the security interests created in the Security Documents in the Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Debt Representatives and holders of Secured Debt Obligations; provided, that to the extent any such security interest was not perfected by the Issue Date, the Company and the Guarantors shall use reasonable best efforts to have all security interests perfected, to the extent required by the Security Documents, promptly following the Issue Date, but in any event shall perfect such Lien no later than 60 days following the Issue Date.

81


 

          (b) The Company and the Guarantors shall execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all further action that may be required under applicable law, or that the Trustee or the Collateral Trustee may reasonably request, in order to grant, preserve, protect and perfect the validity and priority of the security interests created or intended to be created by the Security Documents in the Collateral. In addition, from time to time, the Company shall reasonably promptly secure the obligations under this Indenture and the Security Documents by pledging or creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected security interests with respect to the Collateral. Such security interests and Liens shall be created under the Security Documents and other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee.
          (c) The Company and each of the Guarantors shall do or cause to be done all acts and things that may be required, or that the Collateral Trustee from time to time may reasonably request, to assure and confirm that the Collateral Trustee holds, for the benefit of the Secured Debt Representatives and holders of Secured Debt Obligations, duly created and enforceable and perfected Liens upon the Collateral (including any property or assets that are acquired or otherwise become Collateral after the Notes are issued), in each case, as contemplated by, and with the Lien priority required under, the Secured Debt Documents; provided that the Company and the Guarantors shall not be required to provide, and the Collateral Trustee shall not request, any additional Mortgages in respect of any additional real property constituting Collateral which has a Fair Market Value of less than $5.0 million.
          (d) Upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Trustee or any Secured Debt Representative at any time and from time to time, the Company and each of the Guarantors shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver such security documents, instruments, certificates, notices and other documents, and take such other actions as may be reasonably required, or that the Collateral Trustee may reasonably request, to create, perfect, protect, assure or enforce the Liens and benefits intended to be conferred, in each case as contemplated by the Secured Debt Documents for the benefit of the holders of Secured Debt Obligations.

The Company will promptly reimburse the Trustee and Collateral Trustee for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee or Collateral Trustee in connection therewith, including all reasonable fees and charges of any advisors, auditors, consultants, attorneys or representatives acting for the Trustee or for the Collateral Trustee.
Section 4.22. Real Estate.
          (a) On or prior to the Issue Date, or as reasonably practicable after the Issue Date, but in no event later than 60 days after the Issue Date (such time and date, the “Mortgage Closing Date”), the Issuer and the Guarantors will deliver to the Collateral Trustee, with respect to the Initial Mortgaged Property, in each case subject to Section 4.21(c), the following:

     (B) evidence that counterparts of the Initial Mortgages have been duly executed, acknowledged and delivered and are in form suitable for filing or recording in all filing or recording offices that the Collateral Trustee may reasonably deem necessary or reasonably desirable in order to create a valid first and subsisting Lien on the property (subject to Liens permitted under the Note Documents) described therein in favor of the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the holders of Secured Debt Obligations and that all filing and recording taxes and fees have been paid;

     (C) fully paid American Land Title Association Lender’s Extended Coverage title insurance policies (“Mortgage Policies”) with respect to the Initial Mortgaged Property, substantially in the same form and with the same endorsements (to the extent available at customary rates) as those policies issued in connection with the Original Financing (except to the extent additional endorsements would be customarily provided for similarly situated real property) and in amounts reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Trustee, issued by First American Title Company or title insurers reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Trustee, insuring the Mortgages to be valid first and subsisting Liens on the property described therein, free and clear of all defects (including, but not limited to, mechanics’ and materialmen’s Liens) and encumbrances, excepting only Permitted Liens, and providing for such other affirmative insurance (including endorsements for mechanics’ and materialmen’s Liens) as the Collateral Trustee may deem necessary or reasonably desirable;
     (D) to the extent required for issuance of a Mortgage Policy containing customary coverage for survey matters, American Land Title Association/American Congress on Surveying and Mapping form surveys, for which all necessary fees (where applicable) have been paid, and dated no more than 60 days before the day of delivery of the applicable Mortgage (or as of such date as may be required by the issuer of the applicable Mortgage Policy), certified to the Collateral Trustee and the issuer of the Mortgage Policies in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee by a land surveyor duly registered and licensed in the state in which the property described in such survey is located and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Trustee, showing all buildings and other improvements, the location of any easements noted in the Mortgage Policies, rights of way, building set-back lines and other dimensional regulations (each to the extent plottable) and the absence of encroachments, either by such improvements to or on such property, and other defects, which cannot otherwise be insured over in the Mortgage Policies, other than encroachments and other defects reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Trustee;

     (F) favorable opinions of local counsel to the Company or the respective Guarantor granting each Initial Mortgage in states in which the real property to be covered by an Initial Mortgage is located, with respect to the enforceability and perfection of the Mortgages and any related fixture filings, each in form no less favorable, in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Trustee, than the opinions rendered by such local counsel with respect to the Mortgages executed and delivered in connection with the Original Financing, and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee (including that the relevant mortgagor is validly existing and in good standing, corporate power, due authorization, execution and delivery, no conflicts and no consents); and

84


 

     (G) such other consents, agreements and confirmations of lessors and third parties as the Collateral Trustee may reasonably deem necessary, and evidence that all other actions reasonably requested by the Collateral Trustee that are necessary in order to create valid first and subsisting Liens on the property described in the Mortgage has been taken.
          (b) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Company and the Guarantors shall only be required to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Leasing Deliverables related to the granting of a Mortgage with respect to leasehold interests in real property subject to this Section 4.22. If, after using such commercially reasonable efforts, the Company or a Guarantor, as the case may be, is unable to obtain the Leasing Deliverables, the leasehold interest shall be considered to be an Excluded Asset hereunder.
Section 4.23. Covenant Suspension.
          (a) Following the first day (the “Suspension Date”) that:
     (i) the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating from both of the Rating Agencies; and
     (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture
(together, the “Suspension Conditions”), the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, and 5.01(a)(iv) of this Indenture with respect to the Notes (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”).
          (b) In the event that the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of Section 4.23(a) and, on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”), either or both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their ratings or downgrade their ratings assigned to the Notes below the required Investment Grade Ratings, then the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants until the Suspension Conditions are again satisfied with respect to future events. The period of time between the Suspension Date and the Reversion Date is referred to in this description as the “Suspension Period.” Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default under this Indenture shall be deemed to have occurred as a result of a failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during the Suspension Period. During any Suspension Period, the Company may not designate any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary unless the Company would have been permitted to designate such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if a Suspension Period had not been in effect for any period.

85


 

          (c) On the Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred during the Suspension Period shall be classified to have been Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or one of the clauses set forth in 4.09(b) (to the extent such Indebtedness would be permitted to be Incurred thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness Incurred prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness would not be so permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or Section 4.09(b), such Indebtedness shall be deemed to have been outstanding on the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 4.09(b)(ii). Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 shall be made as though Section 4.07 had been in effect since the Issue Date and throughout the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period shall reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07(a) and the items specified in subclauses (C)(1) through (C)(5) of Section 4.07(a) shall increase the amount available to be made under Section 4.07(a). For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4.10, the amount of Excess Proceeds and Collateral Excess Proceeds shall be deemed to be reset to zero.

     (A) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the applicable grace or cure period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or
     (B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity,
and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default which remains outstanding or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $15.0 million or more, provided that if any such default is cured or waived or any such acceleration is rescinded, or such Indebtedness is repaid, within a period of 20 days from the continuation of such default beyond the applicable grace or cure period or the occurrence of such acceleration, as the case may be, such Event of Default under this Indenture and any consequential acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment or decree;
     (vi) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final non-appealable judgments (to the extent not paid or covered by insurance provided by a reputable carrier) aggregating in excess of $15.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days.
Section 6.02. Acceleration.
          (a) In the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(ix) or Section 6.01(a)(x) hereof, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately by notice in writing to the Company specifying the Event of Default. Upon receipt of any such declaration by the Company, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind and annul an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

89


 

Section 6.03. Other Remedies.
          (a) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, and Additional Interest, if any, with respect to, the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.
          (b) The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.
Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults.
          The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Additional Interest, if any, on, premium, if any, or the principal of, the Notes.
          (a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the requisite percentage of Holders have consented to any such waiver and attaching copies of such consents. In case of any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Notes, respectively. This Section 6.04 and Section 9.02 shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA and such Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the TIA is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture and the Notes, as permitted by the TIA. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
Section 6.05. Control by Majority.
          The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes.

90


 

Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits.
          (a) A Holder of Notes may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Notes unless:

     (ii) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;
     (iii) such Holder or Holders offer the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liability or expense;
     (iv) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and
     (v) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with the request.
     Such limitations do not apply to the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of the principal of, premium or Additional Interest, if any, or interest on, such Note or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment, on or after the due date expressed in the Notes, which right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.
          (b) A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note.
Section 6.07. Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.
          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, interest on, and Additional Interest, if any, with respect to, the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.
Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee.
          If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(i) or (a)(ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, interest, and Additional Interest, if any, remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent lawful, interest and Additional Interest, if any, and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

91


 

Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.
          The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other securities or property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

     Third: the balance, if any, to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.
          (b) The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

92


 

Section 6.11. Undertaking for Costs.
          In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than ten percent in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

     (vi) as to the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary, if securing the Notes with the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary as provided by the Security Documents would give rise to an obligation of the Company to prepare audited financial statements of such Subsidiary in order to comply with Regulation S-X, but only if such obligation did not arise as a result of the transfer of assets to such Subsidiary, the transfer of assets to another Subsidiary or any recapitalization of any Subsidiary by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

NOTE GUARANTEES
Section 11.01. Guarantee.
          (a) Subject to this Article Eleven, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, and fully and unconditionally, guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of, this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes, if lawful (subject in all cases to any applicable grace period provided herein), and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.
          (b) The Guarantors hereby agree that, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Subject to Section 6.06 hereof, each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.
          (c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to any of the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

113


 

          (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Six hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee.
Section 11.02. Limitation on Guarantor Liability.
          Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to such Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article Eleven, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.
Section 11.03. Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee.
          (a) To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by its President, its Chief Financial Officer, one of its Senior Vice Presidents, one of its Vice Presidents or one of its Assistant Vice Presidents.
          (b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Note Guarantee on the Notes.
          (c) If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

     (i) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and
     (ii) either:
     (A) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture and its Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or
     (B) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.10 hereof.
          (b) In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance governed by Section 11.04(a)(ii)(A), upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by a Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for a Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.
Section 11.05. Release of a Guarantor.
          (a) The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor (and the security interest in the Collateral owned by such Guarantor) will be released:
     (i) in connection with any sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise) of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor following which such Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer complies with the provisions of Section 4.10 hereof;

If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the then outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the then outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date.

          (f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so itself with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

     1. Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 12% per annum from the date hereof until maturity and shall pay the Additional Interest, if any, payable pursuant to Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below. The Company shall pay interest and Additional Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of original issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be December 15, 2009. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the interest rate on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Additional Interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
     2. Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) and Additional Interest, if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the record date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium and Additional Interest, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and Additional Interest, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of and interest, premium and Additional Interest, if any, on, all Global Notes and to any Holder of Notes which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. If a payment date is a date other than a Business Day at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.
     3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, the Trustee under the Indenture shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Indenture pursuant to which this Note is issued provides that an unlimited aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes may be issued thereunder.
     5. Optional Redemption. (a) Except as set forth in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Paragraph 5, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Notes prior to June 15, 2013.

A1-5


 

     6. Repurchase at Option of Holder. (a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of the Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to not less than 101.000% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, subject to the right of Holders of the Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the “Change of Control Payment Date,” which date will be no earlier than the date of such Change of Control). The Change of Control Offer shall be made in accordance with Section 4.14 of the Indenture.
          (b) In accordance with Section 4.10 of the Indenture, the Issuer will be required to offer to purchase the Notes upon certain asset sales.
     7. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption. Also, the Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. Transfer may be restricted as provided in the Indenture.
     8. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as its owner for all purposes.
     9. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 of the Indenture, any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder.
     10. Defaults and Remedies. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that together constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately by notice in writing to the Company specifying the Event of Default. Holders of the Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture and the Security Documents. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Indenture, and its consequences, and waive any related existing Default or Event of Default (except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Additional Interest, if any, premium, if any, or on the principal of the Notes) if certain conditions are satisfied.

A1-6


 

     11. Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.
     12. No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, member, manager or partner of the Company or any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.
     13. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.
     14. Additional Rights of Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes.

E-2


 

     (e) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.

     (a) A Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless:

[Reverse Side of Note]
TERREMARK WORLDWIDE, INC.

12% Senior Secured Notes due 2017
          Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.
     1. Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 12% per annum from the date hereof until maturity and shall pay the Additional Interest, if any, payable pursuant to Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below. The Company shall pay interest and Additional Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of original issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be December 15, 2009. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, at the interest rate on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest and Additional Interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
     2. Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) and Additional Interest, if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the record date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium and Additional Interest, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and Additional Interest, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of and interest, premium and Additional Interest, if any, on, all Global Notes and to any Holder of Notes which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. If a payment date is a date other than a Business Day at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.
     3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, the Trustee under the Indenture shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

4


 

     4. Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of June 24, 2009 (“Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Indenture pursuant to which this Note is issued provides that an unlimited aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes may be issued thereunder.
     5. Optional Redemption. (a) Except as set forth in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Paragraph 5, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Notes prior to June 15, 2013. On or after June 15, 2013, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes on any one or more occasions, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest (and Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on June 15 of each of the years indicated below:

          (b) At any time prior to June 15, 2012, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued hereunder at a redemption price of 112.000% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, thereon to the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that:
     (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries); and
     (2) the redemption occurs within 120 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.
          (c) At any time prior to June 15, 2013, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the applicable redemption date (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

5


 

     6. Repurchase at Option of Holder. (a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of the Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to not less than 101.000% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, subject to the right of Holders of the Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the “Change of Control Payment Date,” which date will be no earlier than the date of such Change of Control). The Change of Control Offer shall be made in accordance with Section 4.14 of the Indenture.
          (b) In accordance with Section 4.10 of the Indenture, the Issuer will be required to offer to purchase the Notes upon certain asset sales.
     7. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption. Also, the Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. Transfer may be restricted as provided in the Indenture.
     8. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as its owner for all purposes.
     9. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 of the Indenture, any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder.
     10. Defaults and Remedies. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that together constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately by notice in writing to the Company specifying the Event of Default. Holders of the Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture and the Security Documents. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest, if any) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Indenture, and its consequences, and waive any related existing Default or Event of Default (except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Additional Interest, if any, premium, if any, or on the principal of the Notes) if certain conditions are satisfied.

     11. Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.
     12. No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, member, manager or partner of the Company or any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.
     13. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.
     14. Additional Rights of Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes. In addition to the rights provided to Holders under the Indenture, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes shall have all the rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of June 24, 2009, between the Company, the Guarantors and the parties named on the signature pages thereof or, in the case of Additional Notes, Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes shall have the rights set forth in one or more registration rights agreements, if any, between the Company, the Guarantors and the other parties thereto, relating to rights given by the Company and the Guarantors to the purchasers of Additional Notes (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders.

Dear Sirs:
     Terremark Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), proposes to issue and sell to Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Jefferies & Company, Inc., RBC Capital Markets Corporation, Piper Jaffray & Co. and TD Securities (USA) LLC (collectively, the “Initial Purchasers”), upon the terms set forth in a purchase agreement of even date herewith (the “Purchase Agreement”), $420,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 12.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (the “Initial Securities”) to be unconditionally guaranteed (the “Guaranties”) by the subsidiary guarantors of the Company named in Schedule A hereto (the “Guarantors” and together with the Issuer, the “Company”). The Initial Securities will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of June 24, 2009, (the “Indenture”) among the Issuer, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”). As an inducement to the Initial Purchasers, the Company agrees with the Initial Purchasers, for the benefit of the holders of the Initial Securities (including, without limitation, the Initial Purchasers), the Exchange Securities (as defined below) and the Private Exchange Securities (as defined below) (collectively the “Holders”), as follows:
     1. Registered Exchange Offer. The Company shall, at its own cost, prepare and, not later than 90 days after (or if the 90th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) the date of original issue of the Initial Securities (the “Issue Date”), file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to a proposed offer (the “Registered Exchange Offer”) to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Initial Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the “Exchange Securities”) of the Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the Initial Securities (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial Securities and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act within 180 days (or if the 180th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the Issue Date of the Initial Securities and shall keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 30 days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the “Exchange Offer Registration Period”).

1


 

     If the Company effects the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company will be entitled to close the Registered Exchange Offer 30 days after the commencement thereof provided that the Company has accepted all the Initial Securities theretofore validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Registered Exchange Offer.
     Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly commence the Registered Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof) electing to exchange the Initial Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such Holder’s business and has no arrangements with any person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of the several states of the United States.
     The Company acknowledges that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, (i) each Holder which is a broker-dealer electing to exchange Securities, acquired for its own account as a result of market making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Securities (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and (ii) an Initial Purchaser that elects to sell Exchange Securities acquired in exchange for Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in connection with such sale.
     The Company shall use its best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that (i) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer or an Initial Purchaser, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers and the Initial Purchasers have sold all Exchange Securities held by them (unless such period is extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) and (ii) the Company shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any Exchange Securities for a period of not less than 90 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer.
     If, upon consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, any Initial Purchaser holds Initial Securities acquired by it as part of its initial distribution, the Company, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, shall issue and deliver to such Initial Purchaser upon the written request of such Initial Purchaser, in exchange (the “Private Exchange”) for the Initial Securities held by such Initial Purchaser, a like principal amount of debt securities of the Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects (including the existence of restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the securities laws of the several states of the United States, but excluding provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) to the Initial Securities (the “Private Exchange Securities”). The Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities are herein collectively called the “Securities”.

2


 

     In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall:
     (a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents;
     (b) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than 30 days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders;
     (c) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee;
     (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and
     (e) otherwise comply with all applicable laws.
     As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Company shall:
     (x) accept for exchange all the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the Private Exchange;
     (y) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all the Initial Securities so accepted for exchange; and
     (z) cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder of the Initial Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the Initial Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange.
     The Indenture will provide that the Exchange Securities will not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture and that all the Securities will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a class separate from one another on any matter.
     Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and in the Private Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Initial Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities, from the date of original issue of the Initial Securities.
     Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (ii) such Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an “affiliate,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Company or if it is an affiliate, such Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Securities and (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities.

     Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company will ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
     2. Shelf Registration. If, (i) because of any change in law or in applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission, the Company is not permitted to effect a Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by Section 1 hereof, (ii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within 210 days of the Issue Date, (iii) any Initial Purchaser so requests with respect to the Initial Securities (or the Private Exchange Securities) not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer and held by it following consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, or (iv) any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer or, in the case of any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) that participates in the Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder does not receive freely tradeable Exchange Securities on the date of the exchange, the Company shall take the following actions:
     (a) The Company shall, at its cost, as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 30 days after so required or requested pursuant to this Section 2) file with the Commission and thereafter shall use its best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective automatically upon filing) a registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a “Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof) by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the “Shelf Registration”); provided, however, that no Holder (other than an Initial Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder.
     (b) The Company shall use its best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of two years (or for such longer period if extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) from the Issue Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii)(a) are freely transferable without restriction by persons that are not affiliates of the Company pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereto or otherwise where no conditions of Rule 144 are then applicable (other than the holding period requirement in paragraph (d)(1)(ii) of Rule 144 so long as such holding period requirement is satisfied, (b) do not bear any restrictive legends and (c) do not bear a restrictive CUSIP number. The Company shall be deemed not to have used its best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Securities during that period, unless such action is required by applicable law.
     (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements

4


 

of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
     3. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the extent applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply:
     (a) The Company shall (i) furnish to each Initial Purchaser, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein and, the Company shall use its best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as such Initial Purchaser reasonably may propose; (ii) include the information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section and in Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and include the information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; (iii) if requested by an Initial Purchaser, include the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement; (iv) include within the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchasers, which shall contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff of the Commission with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by the staff of the Commission or such positions or policies, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchasers based upon advice of counsel (which may be in-house counsel), represent the prevailing views of the staff of the Commission; and (v) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include in the prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement (or, if permitted by Commission Rule 430B(b), in a prospectus supplement that becomes a part thereof pursuant to Commission Rule 430B(f)) that is delivered to any Holder pursuant to Section 3(d) and (f), the names of the Holders, who propose to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as selling securityholders.
     (b) The Company shall give written notice to the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and any Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the Company has received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made):
     (i) when the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
     (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;
     (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, of the issuance by the Commission of a notification of objection to the use of the

5


 

form on which the Registration Statement has been filed, and of the happening of any event that causes the Company to become an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Commission Rule 405.
     (iv) of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
     (v) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in the Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
     (c) The Company shall make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
     (d) The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment or supplement thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference). The Company shall not, without the prior consent of the Initial Purchasers, make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Commission Rule 405.
     (e) The Company shall deliver to each Exchanging Dealer and each Initial Purchaser, and to any other Holder who so requests, without charge, at least one copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if any Initial Purchaser or any such Holder requests, all exhibits thereto (including those incorporated by reference).
     (f) The Company shall, during the Shelf Registration Period, deliver to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of the Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement.
     (g) The Company shall deliver to each Initial Purchaser, any Exchanging Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such persons may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any Initial Purchaser, if necessary, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer Registration Statement.

     (h) Prior to any public offering of the Securities, pursuant to any Registration Statement, the Company shall register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders of the Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or (ii) take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.
     (i) The Company shall cooperate with the Holders of the Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.
     (j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly prepare and file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any such Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement provided for in Section 2(b) above and the Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(j). During the period during which the Company is required to maintain an effective Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will prior to the three-year expiration of that Shelf Registration Statement file, and use its best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective automatically upon filing) within a period that avoids any interruption in the ability of Holders of Securities covered by the expiring Shelf Registration Statement to make registered dispositions, a new registration statement relating to the Securities, which shall be deemed the “Shelf Registration Statement” for purposes of this Agreement.
     (k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide a CUSIP number for the Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, and provide the applicable trustee with printed certificates for the Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.
     (l) The Company will comply with all rules and regulations of the Commission to the extent and so long as they are applicable to the Registered Exchange Offer or the Shelf Registration and will make generally available to its security holders (or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such 12-month period.

     (m) The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the Company shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture.
     (n) The Company may require each Holder of Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request.
     (o) The Company shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as any Holder of the Securities shall reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration.
     (p) In the case of any Shelf Registration, the Company shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by the Holders of the Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and (ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable such persons, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act; provided, however, that the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall be coordinated on behalf of the Initial Purchasers by you and on behalf of the other parties, by one counsel designated by and on behalf of such other parties as described in Section 4 hereof.
     (q) In the case of any Shelf Registration, the Company, if requested by any Holder of Securities covered thereby, shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion and updates thereof relating to the Securities in customary form addressed to such Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, thereof and dated, in the case of the initial opinion, the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement (it being agreed that the matters to be covered by such opinion shall include, without limitation, the due incorporation and good standing of the Company and its subsidiaries; the qualification of the Company and its subsidiaries to transact business as foreign corporations; the due authorization, execution and delivery of the relevant agreement of the type referred to in Section 3(o) hereof; the due authorization, execution, authentication and issuance, and the validity and enforceability, of the applicable Securities; the absence of material legal or governmental proceedings involving the Company and its subsidiaries; the absence of governmental approvals required to be obtained in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, the offering and sale of the applicable Securities, or any agreement of the type referred to in Section 3(o) hereof; the compliance as to form of such Shelf Registration Statement and any documents incorporated by reference therein and of the Indenture with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act, respectively; and (A) as of the date of the opinion and as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or most recent post-effective amendment thereto, as the case may be, the absence from such Shelf Registration Statement and the prospectus included therein, as then amended or supplemented, and from any documents

8


 

incorporated by reference therein and (B) as of an applicable time identified by such Holders or managing underwriters, the absence from such prospectus taken together with any other documents identified by such Holders or managing underwriters, in the case of (A) and (B), of an untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any such incorporated documents, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time that such documents were filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act); (ii) its officers to execute and deliver all customary documents and certificates and updates thereof requested by any underwriters of the applicable Securities and (iii) its independent public accountants to provide to the selling Holders of the applicable Securities and any underwriter therefor a comfort letter in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in comfort letters in connection with primary underwritten offerings, subject to receipt of appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72.
     (r) In the case of the Registered Exchange Offer, if requested by any Initial Purchaser or any known Participating Broker-Dealer, the Company shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver to such Initial Purchaser or such Participating Broker-Dealer a signed opinion in the form set forth in Section 7(c) of the Purchase Agreement with such changes as are customary in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement and (ii) its independent public accountants to deliver to such Initial Purchaser or such Participating Broker-Dealer a comfort letter, in customary form, meeting the requirements as to the substance thereof as set forth in Section 7(a) of the Purchase Agreement, with appropriate date changes.
     (s) If a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Initial Securities by Holders to the Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall mark, or caused to be marked, on the Initial Securities so exchanged that such Initial Securities are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be; in no event shall the Initial Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied.
     (t) In the event that any broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the meaning of the Conduct Rules (the “Rules”) of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company will assist such broker-dealer in complying with the requirements of such Rules, including, without limitation, by (i) if such Rules, including Rule 2720, shall so require, engaging a “qualified independent underwriter” (as defined in Rule 2720) to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement relating to such Securities, to exercise usual standards of due diligence in respect thereto and, if any portion of the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is an underwritten offering or is made through a placement or sales agent, to recommend the yield of such Securities, (ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of underwriters provided in Section 5 hereof and (iii) providing such information to such broker-dealer as may be required in order for such broker-dealer to comply with the requirements of the Rules.
     (u) The Company shall use its best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby.

9


 

     4. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1 through 3 hereof (including the reasonable fees and expenses, if any, of Shearman & Sterling LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, incurred in connection with the Registered Exchange Offer), whether or not the Registered Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration is filed or becomes effective, and, in the event of a Shelf Registration, shall bear or reimburse the Holders of the Securities covered thereby for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Initial Securities covered thereby to act as counsel for the Holders of the Initial Securities in connection therewith.
     5. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of the Securities, any Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Commission Rule 433 (“Issuer FWP”), relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating to a Shelf Registration in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration Statement, the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Securities was required to be delivered (including through satisfaction of the conditions of Commission Rule 172) by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer under the Securities Act in connection with such purchase and any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer results from the fact that there was not conveyed to such person, at or prior to the time of the sale of such Securities to such person, an amended or supplemented prospectus or, if permitted by Section 3(d), an Issuer FWP correcting such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer; provided further, however, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to such Indemnified Party. The Company shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders.
     (b) Each Holder of the Securities, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any actions in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have to the Company or any of its controlling persons.

10


 

     (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action, and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
     (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the exchange of the Securities, pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(d), the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

11


 

     (e) The agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
     6. Additional Interest Under Certain Circumstances. (a) Additional interest (the “Additional Interest”) with respect to the Initial Securities shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (v) below a “Registration Default”):
     (i) If on or prior to the 90th day following the date of original issuance of the Initial Securities, the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission;
     (ii) If on or prior to the 30th day following the occurrence of an event requiring the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission;
     (iii) If on or prior to the 180th day following the date of original issuance of the Initial Securities, neither the Exchange Offer Registration Statement nor the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission;
     (iv) If on or prior to the 210th day following the date of original issuance of the Initial Securities, neither the Registered Exchange Offer has been consummated nor, if required in lieu thereof, the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission; or
     (v) If after either the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement is declared (or becomes automatically) effective (A) such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective; or (B) such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable (except as permitted in paragraph (b)) in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein. Additional Interest shall accrue on the Initial Securities over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Securities from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured; provided that no Additional Interest will accrue or be payable on (1) any Exchange Securities, (2) on Initial Securities that cease to be outstanding or (3) after the Initial Securities (a) become freely transferable without restriction by persons that are not affiliates of the Company pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereto or otherwise where no conditions of Rule 144 are then applicable (other than the holding period requirement in paragraph (d)(1)(ii) of Rule 144 so long as such holding period requirement is satisfied, (b) do not bear any restrictive legends, and (c) do not bear a restrictive CUSIP number. Additional Interest shall accrue at a rate of 0.25% per annum during the 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration Default. The rate at which Additional Interest shall accrue will increase by 0.25% per annum at the end of such first 90-day period immediately following the date on which the first Registration Default shall occur, but in no event shall such rate exceed 1.00% per annum.

12


 

     (b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 6(a)(v)(B) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events, with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; provided, however, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30 days, Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured.
     (c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to clauses (i) through (v) of Section 6(a) above will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Initial Securities. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Initial Securities, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360.
     (d) “Transfer Restricted Securities” means each Security until (i) the date on which such Transfer Restricted Security has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) following the exchange by a broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer of a Initial Security for an Exchange Note, the date on which such Exchange Note is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a copy of the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, or (iii) the date on which such Initial Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement.
     7. Rules 144 and 144A. The Company shall use its best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Initial Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Initial Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). The Company will provide a copy of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of Initial Securities identified to the Company by the Initial Purchasers upon request. Upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act.
     8. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering (“Managing Underwriters”) will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering.
     No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

ANNEX A
     Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date (as defined herein), it will make this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See “Plan of Distribution.”
Annex A

 


 

ANNEX B
     Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Securities, where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See “Plan of Distribution.”
Annex B

 


 

ANNEX C
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
     Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until         ,        , all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus.(1)
     The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.
     For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the Company will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
 
    (1)  In addition, the legend required by Item 502(e) of Regulation S-K will appear on the back cover page of the Exchange Offer prospectus.

SECURITY AGREEMENT
     SECURITY AGREEMENT dated June 24, 2009 (this “Agreement”) made by Terremark Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the other Persons listed on the signature pages hereof and the Additional Grantors (as defined in Section 24) (the Company and the Persons so listed and the Additional Grantors being, collectively, the “Grantors”), to U.S. Bank National Association, (“US Bank”), as collateral trustee (in such capacity, together with any successor collateral trustee appointed pursuant to the Collateral Trust Agreement (as hereinafter defined), the “Collateral Trustee”) for the Parity Lien Representatives and the holders of Parity Lien Obligations (each as defined in the Collateral Trust Agreement and collectively, together with the Collateral Trustee, the “Secured Parties”).
     PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:
     (1) The Company and the other Grantors have entered into an indenture dated as of June 24, 2009 as amended, amended and restated, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time (the "Indenture”) with The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”) for the holders of the Company’s Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (including any additional notes that may be issued under the Indenture from time to time and any exchange notes issued in respect of such notes and additional notes, the "Notes"). The Grantors (other than the Company) have guaranteed the obligations of the Company in respect of the Notes pursuant to a note guarantee set forth in the Indenture.
     (2) The Company and the other Grantors may enter into other Parity Lien Documents in respect of additional Parity Lien Obligations to be incurred in the future.
     (3) In order to induce the Trustee to enter into the Indenture and the Parity Lien Representatives and the other holders of the Parity Lien Obligations to enter into the other Parity Lien Documents, the Grantors have agreed to grant, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, a continuing security interest in and to the Collateral to the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties to secure the Parity Lien Obligations.
     (4) Each Grantor is the owner of the shares of stock or other Equity Interests (the “Initial Pledged Interests”) set forth opposite such Grantor’s name on and as otherwise described in Part I of Schedule II hereto and issued by the Persons named therein and of the indebtedness (the “Initial Pledged Debt”) set forth opposite such Grantor’s name on and as otherwise described in Part II of Schedule II hereto and issued by the obligors named therein.
     (5) The Grantors have opened deposit accounts (the “Deposit Accounts”) with banks, in the name of the applicable Grantor and subject to the terms of this Agreement, as described in Schedule VII hereto.
     (6) The Company is the beneficiary under certain letters of credit as described in Schedule IX.
     (7) It is a condition precedent to the entry into the Parity Lien Documents by the Parity Lien Representatives and the other holders of Parity Lien Obligations that the Grantors shall have granted to the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties the security interest in the Collateral granted under this Agreement.

     (8) The Collateral Trustee has agreed, pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Company, the other Grantors, the Collateral Trustee, the Trustee and the other parties party thereto (as amended, amended and restated and otherwise modified from time to time, the “Collateral Trust Agreement”) to accept the grant of a security interest under this Agreement as security for the Parity Lien Obligations (referred to herein as “Secured Obligations”).
     (9) Each Grantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the transactions contemplated by the Indenture and the other Parity Lien Documents.
     (10) Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are used in this Agreement as defined in the Indenture or the Collateral Trust Agreement. Further, unless otherwise defined in this Agreement or in the Indenture or the Collateral Trust Agreement, terms defined in Article 8 or 9 of the UCC (as defined below) and/or in the Federal Book Entry Regulations (as defined below) are used in this Agreement as such terms are defined in such Article 8 or 9 and/or the Federal Book Entry Regulations. “UCC” means the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect, from time to time, in the State of New York; provided that, if perfection or the effect of perfection or non-perfection or the priority of any security interest in any Collateral is governed by the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in a jurisdiction other than the State of New York, “UCC” means the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in such other jurisdiction for purposes of the provisions hereof relating to such perfection, effect of perfection or non-perfection or priority. The term “Federal Book Entry Regulations” means (a) the federal regulations contained in Subpart B (“Treasury/Reserve Automated Debt Entry System (TRADES)”) governing book-entry securities consisting of U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds and Subpart D (“Additional Provisions”) of 31 C.F.R.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral shall include (and Excluded Assets shall be deemed to exclude) (x) the right to receive all proceeds derived from the sale, assignment, transfer or transfer of control of Excluded Assets (unless such right independently constitutes Excluded Assets) and (y) proceeds of Excluded Assets (unless such proceeds independently constitute Excluded Assets)

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures, as to each Grantor, the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by such Grantor to any Secured Party under the Parity Lien Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving any Grantor.

     Section 3. Grantors Remain Liable.

With respect to certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral that are currently in possession of a prior collateral agent, within 10 days of the date hereof, such certificates or instruments shall be delivered to the Collateral Trustee, or if such certificates or instruments cannot be located, an affidavit of loss in respect of such certificates in a mutually agreed form shall be delivered to the Collateral Trustee and new certificates evidencing such pledged equity and such pledged debt shall be issued by the Company and each other applicable Grantor and shall be delivered to the Collateral Trustee. The parties acknowledge that the Collateral Trustee shall not have any responsibility with respect to such certificates or instruments until taking possession thereof in accordance with the terms herein. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any event or condition which, under the terms of any Parity Lien Document, causes or permits the holders of any Parity Lien Obligations to cause such Parity Lien Obligations to become immediately due and payable (with the giving of notice or passage of time or both) (a “Parity Lien Event of Default”), the Collateral Trustee shall have the right (i) at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations and (ii) at any time in its discretion and without notice to any Grantor, to transfer to or to register in the name of the Collateral Trustee or any of its nominees any or all of the Security Collateral, subject only to the revocable rights specified in Section 14(a).
     (b) With respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any right, title or interest and that constitutes an uncertificated security, such Grantor will cause the issuer thereof (or, if the issuer thereof is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor, will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer thereof) either (i) to register the Collateral Trustee as the registered owner of such security or (ii) to agree in an authenticated record with such Grantor and the Collateral Trustee that such issuer will comply with instructions with respect to such security originated by the Collateral Trustee without further consent of such Grantor, such authenticated record to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee. With respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any right, title or interest and that is not an uncertificated security, upon the request of the Collateral Trustee upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Parity Lien Event of Default, such Grantor will notify each such issuer of Pledged Interests pledged by such Grantor that such Pledged Interests is subject to the security interest granted hereunder.

     (c) With respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any right, title or interest and that constitutes a security entitlement in which the Collateral Trustee is not the entitlement holder, such Grantor will cause the securities intermediary with respect to such security entitlement either (i) to identify in its records the Collateral Trustee as the entitlement holder of such security entitlement against such securities intermediary or (ii) no later than 60 days after the date hereof (or such later date as may be specified by the Collateral Trustee in its sole discretion), to agree in an authenticated record with such Grantor and the Collateral Trustee that such securities intermediary will comply with entitlement orders (that is, notifications communicated to such securities intermediary directing transfer or redemption of the financial asset to which such Grantor has a security entitlement) originated by the Collateral Trustee without further consent of such Grantor, such authenticated record to be in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto or otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee.
     (d) No Grantor will change or add any securities intermediary that maintains any securities account in which any of the Collateral is credited or carried, or change or add any such securities account, without first complying with the above provisions of this Section 4 in order to perfect the security interest granted hereunder in such Collateral.
     (e) Upon delivery of a written request of the Collateral Trustee upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Parity Lien Event of Default, such Grantor will notify each such issuer of Pledged Debt that such Pledged Debt pledged by such Grantor is subject to the security interest granted hereunder.
     Section 5. Maintaining the Account Collateral. So long as any Secured Obligation , if applicable, any Hedging Obligation (as defined in any Parity Lien Document) secured by the Collateral or commitment to advance funds to a Grantor which if advanced would constitute Secured Obligations shall be in effect:
     (a) No later than sixty (60) days after the date hereof, as such date may be extended on the terms permitted by the Indenture or Collateral Trust Agreement, at all times thereafter, each Grantor will maintain all Account Collateral only with the Collateral Trustee or with a bank (the “Pledged Account Bank”) that has agreed, in a record authenticated by the Grantor, the Collateral Trustee and the Pledged Account Bank, to (A) comply with instructions originated by the Collateral Trustee directing the disposition of funds in the Account Collateral without the further consent of the Grantor following the occurrence of a Parity Lien Event of Default and (B) waive or subordinate in favor of the Collateral Trustee all claims of the Pledged Account Bank (including, without limitation, claims by way of a security interest, lien or right of setoff or right of recoupment) to the Account Collateral, which authenticated record shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, or shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee (an “Account Control Agreement”); provided that, with respect to any newly created Account Collateral, each Grantor will be required to comply with the foregoing requirements with respect to such newly created Account Collateral no later than sixty (60) days after the creation of such Account Collateral; provided further, that no Account Control Agreement shall be required in respect of deposit, checking or securities accounts the individual balance of which does not exceed $2,500,000 and does not exceed, when aggregated with the balance of all other such deposit, checking and securities accounts for which no corresponding Account Control Agreement is in effect, $10,000,000.

     (b) Each Grantor agrees that it will not add any bank that maintains a deposit account for such Grantor or open any new deposit account with any then existing Pledged Account Bank unless, (A) the Collateral Trustee shall have received at least 10 days’ prior written notice of such additional bank or such new deposit account and (B) the Collateral Trustee shall have received, in the case of a bank or Pledged Account Bank that is not the Collateral Trustee, an Account Control Agreement authenticated by such new bank and such Grantor, or a supplement to an existing Account Control Agreement with such then existing Pledged Account Bank, covering such new deposit account (and, upon the receipt by the Collateral Trustee of such Account Control Agreement or supplement, Schedule VII hereto shall be automatically amended to include such Deposit Account). Upon a Grantor’s termination of any bank as a Pledged Account Bank or termination of any Account Collateral, such Grantor shall promptly give notice of such termination to the Collateral Trustee and deliver to the Collateral Trustee and the Trustee a certificate of an acceptable officer of such Grantor detailing the Account Collateral to be terminated and certifying that such termination is permitted under the Secured Debt Documents (and, upon such termination, Schedule VII hereto shall be automatically amended to delete such Pledged Account Bank and Deposit Account); provided, however, that, unless the Collateral Trustee has given its express consent, no Grantor may (1) terminate any bank as a Pledged Account Bank with respect to any Cash Collateral Account, (2) terminate any Cash Collateral Account, or (3) terminate any bank as a Pledged Account Bank if a Parity Lien Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
     (c) Upon any termination by a Grantor of any Deposit Account by such Grantor, or any Pledged Account Bank with respect thereto, such Grantor will immediately (i) transfer all funds and property held in such terminated Deposit Account to another Deposit Account listed in Schedule VII or to a Cash Collateral Account and (ii) notify all Persons obligated at any time to make any payment to such Grantor for any reason that were making payments to such Deposit Account to make all future payments to another Deposit Account listed in Schedule VII hereto or to a Cash Collateral Account, in each case so that the Collateral Trustee shall have a continuously perfected security interest in such Account Collateral, funds and property. Each Grantor agrees to terminate any or all Account Control Agreements upon request by the Collateral Trustee.
     (d) The Collateral Trustee shall have sole right to direct the disposition of funds with respect to any Cash Collateral Account; and it shall be a term and condition of any Cash Collateral Account, notwithstanding any term or condition to the contrary in any other agreement relating to any Cash Collateral Account, that no amount (including, without limitation, interest on Cash Equivalents credited thereto) will, except on the Collateral Trustee’s instructions, be paid or released to or for the account of, or withdrawn by or for the account of, the Company or any other Person from any Cash Collateral Account.
     (e) If a Parity Lien Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Trustee may, at any time and without notice to, or consent from, the Grantor, (i) transfer, or direct the transfer of, funds from the Account Collateral to satisfy the Grantor’s obligations under the Parity Lien Documents and (ii) transfer, or direct the transfer of, funds from the Deposit Accounts to a Cash Collateral Account.
     Section 6. Release of Amounts. So long as no Parity Lien Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Trustee will pay and release, or direct the applicable Pledged Account Bank to pay and release, to the Company or at its order or, at the request of the Company, to the Trustee to be applied to the Secured Obligations of the Company under the Parity Lien Documents, such amount, if any, as is then on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account to the extent permitted to be released under the terms of the Parity Lien Documents.

(a) Each Grantor will, at its own expense, maintain insurance with respect to the Equipment and Inventory of such Grantor in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with such insurers, as are required with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries by the Parity Lien Documents. Each policy of each Grantor for liability insurance shall provide for all losses to be paid on behalf of the Collateral Trustee and such Grantor as their interests may appear, and each policy for property damage insurance shall provide for all losses (except for losses of less than $200,000 per occurrence) to be paid directly to the Collateral Trustee.

     (c) So long as no Parity Lien Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all insurance payments received by the Collateral Trustee in connection with any loss, damage or destruction of any Inventory or Equipment will be released by the Collateral Trustee to the applicable Grantor for the repair, replacement or restoration thereof, subject to such terms and conditions with respect to the release thereof as the Collateral Trustee may reasonably require; provided, however, that in connection with any request for release, the Collateral Trustee shall have received a certificate of an acceptable officer of the Company detailing the items to be released and certifying that such release is permitted under the terms of the Secured Debt Documents. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Parity Lien Event of Default, all insurance payments in respect of Equipment or Inventory shall be paid to the Collateral Trustee and shall, in the Collateral Trustee’s sole discretion, (i) be released to the applicable Grantor to be applied as set forth in the first sentence of this subsection (c) or (ii) be held as additional Collateral hereunder or applied as specified in Section 22(b).
     Section 12. Post-Closing Changes; Bailees; Collections on Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts. (a) No Grantor will change its name (as defined in Section 9-503 of the UCC), type of organization, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number or location (as defined in Section 9-307 of the UCC) from those set forth in Section 8(a) of this Agreement without first giving at least 10 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Trustee and taking all action required by law and/or upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Trustee (which request it will not be required to provide) for the purpose of perfecting or protecting the security interest granted by this Agreement. Each Grantor agrees that it will give the Collateral Trustee notice of any change in the location of the Equipment and Inventory (other than Equipment or Inventory out for repair, in transit or on consignment in the ordinary course of business) or the place where it keeps the copies of the Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts to which such Grantor is a party and all originals of all chattel paper that evidence Receivables of such Grantor from the locations therefor specified in Sections 8(a) and 8(b) within 10 Business Days after such change. No Grantor will authenticate a security agreement (determined as provided in Section 9-203(d) of the UCC) for obligations in excess of $200,000 without giving the Collateral Trustee 10 Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and taking all action reasonably required by the Collateral Trustee to ensure that the perfection and first priority nature of the Collateral Trustee’s security interest in the Collateral (subject to Liens permitted under the Parity Lien Documents) will be maintained. Each Grantor will hold and preserve its records relating to the Collateral, including, without limitation, the Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts. If the Grantor does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, it will forthwith notify the Collateral Trustee of such organizational identification number.

     (c) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (c), each Grantor will continue to have the right to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due such Grantor under the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts. In connection with such collections, such Grantor may take (and, during a Parity Lien Event of Default at the Collateral Trustee’s direction, will take) such action as such Grantor or, during a Default, the Collateral Trustee may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts; provided, however, that the Collateral Trustee shall have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Parity Lien Event of Default and upon written notice to such Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify each person obligated under any Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts (each, an “Obligor”) of the assignment of such Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts to the Collateral Trustee and to direct such Obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the Collateral Trustee and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts, to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done, and to otherwise exercise all rights with respect to such Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. After receipt by any Grantor of the notice from the Collateral Trustee referred to in the proviso to the preceding sentence, (i) all amounts and proceeds (including, without limitation, instruments) received by such Grantor in respect of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts of such Grantor shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Trustee in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement) to be deposited in a cash collateral account maintained with the Collateral Trustee or such other cash collateral account as may be acceptable to the Collateral Trustee in its sole discretion (which cash collateral account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Trustee) and either (A) released to such Grantor, or at its order, on the terms set forth in Section 6 so long as no Parity Lien Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (B) if any Parity Lien Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, applied as provided in Section 22(b) and (ii) such Grantor will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable or amount due on any Assigned Agreement or Related Contract, release wholly or partly any Obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon. No Grantor will permit or consent to the subordination of its right to payment under any of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts to any other indebtedness or obligations of the Obligor thereof.
     Section 13. As to Intellectual Property Collateral. (a) With respect to each item of its material Intellectual Property Collateral, each Grantor agrees to take, at its expense, all commercially reasonable steps, including, without limitation, in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental authority, to (i) maintain its registrations for such Intellectual Property Collateral that is or becomes registered in full force and effect, and (ii) pursue the prosecution and maintenance of each such material patent, trademark, or copyright registration or

No Grantor shall, without providing to the Collateral Trustee a certificate of an acceptable officer of such Grantor detailing the material Intellectual Property to be discontinued or abandoned and certifying that such action is permitted under the Secured Debt Documents and without the written consent of the Collateral Trustee, discontinue use of or otherwise abandon any material Intellectual Property Collateral, or abandon any right to file an application for patent, trademark, or copyright, unless such Grantor shall have previously determined that such use or the pursuit or maintenance of such Intellectual Property Collateral is no longer necessary or advisable in the conduct of such Grantor’s business and that the loss thereof would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, in which case, such Grantor will give prompt notice of any such abandonment to the Collateral Trustee.
     (b) Each Grantor agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Trustee if such Grantor becomes aware (i) that any item of material Intellectual Property Collateral may have become abandoned, placed in the public domain, invalid or unenforceable, or of any adverse determination or development regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any material Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to register the same or to keep and maintain and enforce the same, or (ii) of any adverse determination or the institution of any proceeding (including, without limitation, the institution of any proceeding in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding any item of material Intellectual Property Collateral.
     (c) In the event that any Grantor becomes aware that any item of material Intellectual Property Collateral is being infringed or misappropriated by a third party, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Trustee and shall take such actions, at its expense, as such Grantor (and, if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Trustee) deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances to protect or enforce such Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, if deemed advisable by such Grantor, suing for infringement or misappropriation and seeking an injunction against continued infringement or misappropriation.
     (d) Each Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to use proper statutory notice in connection with its use of each item of its material registered Intellectual Property Collateral. Subject to Section 13(a), no Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of its owned and registered Intellectual Property Collateral may lapse or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain, unless such Grantor shall have previously determined that such use or the pursuit or maintenance of such Intellectual Property Collateral is no longer necessary or advisable in the conduct of such Grantor’s business.
     (e) Each Grantor shall take all steps which it (or, if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Trustee) deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances to preserve and protect each item of its material Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, maintaining the quality of any and all products or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks.

     (b) Upon the occurrence of a Parity Lien Event of Default, each Grantor will, promptly upon request by the Collateral Trustee, (i) notify (and such Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Trustee to notify) the issuer and each nominated person with respect to each of the Related Contracts consisting of letters of credit that the proceeds thereof have been assigned to the Collateral Trustee hereunder and any payments due or to become due in respect thereof are to be made directly to the Collateral Trustee or its designee and (ii) arrange for the Collateral Trustee to become the transferee beneficiary of letter of credit.

(a) Each Grantor agrees that it will not (i) sell, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral, other than sales, assignments and other dispositions of Collateral, and options relating to Collateral, permitted under the terms of the Parity Lien Documents, or (ii) create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral of such Grantor except for the pledge, assignment and security interest created under this Agreement and Liens permitted under the Parity Lien Documents.
     (b) Each Grantor agrees that it will (i) cause each Subsidiary that is an issuer of the Pledged Interests pledged by such Grantor not to issue any Equity Interests or other securities in addition to or in substitution for the Pledged Interests issued by such issuer, except to such Grantor, and (ii) pledge hereunder, immediately upon its acquisition (directly or indirectly) thereof, any and all additional Equity Interests or other securities.

     Section 21. The Collateral Trustee’s Duties. (a) The powers conferred on the Collateral Trustee hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Trustee shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Collateral Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property.
     (b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Trustee may from time to time, when the Collateral Trustee deems it to be necessary, with prior notice to the Grantors unless a Parity Lien Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, appoint one or more subagents (each a “Subagent”) for the Collateral Trustee hereunder with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. In the event that the Collateral Trustee so appoints any Subagent with respect to any Collateral, (i) the assignment and pledge of such Collateral and the security interest granted in such Collateral by each Grantor hereunder shall be deemed for purposes of this Agreement to have been made to such Subagent, in addition to the Collateral Trustee, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Secured Obligations of such Grantor, (ii) such Subagent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Collateral Trustee, with all rights, powers, privileges, protections, exemptions from liability, interests and remedies of the Collateral Trustee hereunder with respect to such Collateral, and (iii) the term “Collateral Trustee,” when used herein in relation to any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Trustee with respect to such Collateral, shall include such Subagent; provided, however, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Trustee.
     (c) The Collateral Trustee shall not be deemed to have actual, constructive, direct or indirect knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Secured Debt Default unless and until directed by an Act of Required Debtholders stating that a Secured Debt Default has occurred. The Collateral Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever either prior to or after such Act of Required Debtholders to inquire whether a Secured Debt Default has in fact occurred and shall be entitled to rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any such Act of Required Debtholders.
     (d) The Collateral Trustee shall be under no obligation or duty to take any action under this Agreement or any of the Parity Lien Documents or otherwise if taking such action (i) would subject the Collateral Trustee to a tax in any jurisdiction where it is not then subject to a tax or (ii) would require the Collateral Trustee to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified.
     Section 22. Remedies. If any Parity Lien Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:
     (a) The Collateral Trustee may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may: (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Trustee forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Trustee and make it available to the Collateral Trustee at a place and time to be designated by the Collateral Trustee that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the
Terremark — Security Agreement


 

26

Collateral Trustee’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Trustee may deem commercially reasonable; (iii) occupy any premises owned or leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; and (iv) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (A) any and all rights of such Grantor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provision of, the Assigned Agreements, the Receivables, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, (B) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Account Collateral and (C) exercise all other rights and remedies with respect to the Assigned Agreements, the Receivables, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten business days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Trustee shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Trustee 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.
     (b) Any cash held by or on behalf of the Collateral Trustee and all cash proceeds received by or on behalf of the Collateral Trustee in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral Trustee, be held by the Collateral Trustee as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 23) in whole or in part by the Collateral Trustee for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations, in a manner set forth in Section 3.4 of the Collateral Trust Agreement. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by or on behalf of the Collateral Trustee and remaining after payment in full of all of the Secured Obligations shall be paid over to the applicable Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
     (c) All payments received by any Grantor under or in connection with any Assigned Agreement or otherwise in respect of the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Trustee in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement).
     (d) The Collateral Trustee may, without notice to any Grantor except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against any funds held with respect to the Account Collateral or in any other deposit account.
     (e) In the event of any sale or other disposition of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral of any Grantor, the goodwill symbolized by any Trademarks subject to such sale or other disposition shall be included therein, and such Grantor shall supply to the Collateral Trustee or its designee such Grantor’s know-how and expertise relating to such Intellectual Property Collateral, and documents and things relating to any Intellectual Property Collateral subject to such sale or other disposition, and such Grantor’s customer lists and other records and documents relating to such Intellectual Property Collateral and to the manufacture, distribution, advertising and sale of products and services of such Grantor that relate to such Intellectual Property Collateral.
Terremark — Security Agreement


 

27

     (f) If the Collateral Trustee shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Security Collateral of any Grantor pursuant to this Section 22, each Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Collateral Trustee, such Grantor will, at its own expense, do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of such Security Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law.
     (g) The Collateral Trustee is authorized, in connection with any sale of the Security Collateral pursuant to this Section 22, to deliver or otherwise disclose to any prospective purchaser of the Security Collateral any information in its possession relating to such Security Collateral.
     Section 23. Indemnity and Expenses. (a) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify, defend and save each Secured Party and each of its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from, and hold harmless each Indemnified Party against, and shall pay on written demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for any Indemnified Party) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or resulting from this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
     (b) Each Grantor will upon demand pay to the Collateral Trustee the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that the Collateral Trustee may incur in connection with (i) the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of, or any consent or waiver under this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Collateral of such Grantor and (iii) the enforcement of this Agreement or the exercise, enforcement or protection of the rights of the Collateral Trustee or the other Secured Parties hereunder.
     Section 24. Amendments; Waivers; Additional Grantors; Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Collateral Trustee and, with respect to any amendment, such Grantor, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on the part of the Collateral Trustee or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.
     (b) Upon the execution and delivery, or authentication, by any Person of a security agreement supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Security Agreement Supplement”), (i) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Grantor” and shall be and become a Grantor hereunder, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Parity Lien Documents to “Grantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Grantor, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Parity Lien Documents to “Collateral” shall also mean and be a reference to the Collateral of such Additional Grantor, and (ii) the supplemental schedules I — IX attached to each Security Agreement Supplement shall be incorporated into and become a part of and supplement Schedules I — IX, respectively, hereto, and the Collateral Trustee may attach such supplemental schedules to such Schedules; and each reference to such Schedules shall mean and be a reference to such Schedules as supplemented pursuant to each Security Agreement Supplement.
Terremark — Security Agreement

     Section 27. Release; Termination. (a) Upon any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any item of Collateral of any Grantor in accordance with the terms of the Parity Lien Documents, the Collateral Trustee will, at such Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted hereby; provided, however, that (i) at the time of such request and such release no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) such Grantor shall have delivered to the Collateral Trustee, at least ten Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release describing the item of Collateral and the terms of the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition in reasonable detail, including, without limitation, the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a form of release for execution by the Collateral Trustee and a certificate of such Grantor and, if reasonably requested by the Collateral Trustee, an opinion of counsel to the effect that the transaction is in compliance with the Parity Lien Documents and as to such other matters as the Collateral Trustee may request and (iii) the proceeds of any such sale, lease, transfer or other disposition required to be applied, or any payment to be made in connection therewith, in accordance the Parity Lien Documents shall, to the extent so required, be paid or made to, or in accordance with the instructions of, the Collateral Trustee when and as required under the Parity Lien Documents.

     (b) The Account Holder will not be liable to the Grantor or the Secured Party for complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control or with an Account Direction or other direction concerning any Account originated by the Secured Party, even if the Grantor notifies the Account Holder that the Secured Party is not legally entitled to issue the Notice of Exclusive Control or Account Direction or such other direction unless the Account Holder takes the action after it is served with an injunction, restraining order, or other legal process enjoining it from doing so, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and had a reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction, restraining order or other legal process.
     (c) This Agreement does not create any obligation of the Account Holder except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in Article 4 of the N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code.

     (c) Sections 6 and 7 will survive termination of this Agreement.
     SECTION 9. Governing Law. This Agreement and each Account will be governed by the law of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of law principles that would cause the law of another jurisdiction to apply (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law).

The parties to this Agreement agree that the payment and satisfaction of all of the Secured Obligations within each Class will be secured Equally and Ratably by the Liens established in favor of the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties belonging to such Class. It is understood and agreed that nothing in this Section 2.9 is intended to alter the priorities among Secured Parties belonging to different Classes as provided in Section 2.3.
     SECTION 2.10 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Parity Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the holders of the applicable Parity Lien Obligations, and each Junior Lien Representative, for itself and on behalf of the holders of the applicable Junior Lien Obligations, acknowledges and agrees that:
     (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Parity Lien Documents and the Junior Lien Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens; and
     (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Junior Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from the Parity Lien Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

     To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the holders of Parity Lien Obligations and the holders of Junior Lien Obligations in respect of the Collateral constitute (in whole or in part) only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Sections 2.3 and 3.4, all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Company and the Guarantors in respect of the Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the holders of Junior Lien Obligations), the holders of Parity Lien Obligations shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing (or that would be owing if there were such separate classes of senior and junior secured claims) in respect of post-petition interest, including any additional interest payable pursuant to the Parity Lien Documents, arising from or related to a default, which is disallowed as a claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the holders of Junior Lien Obligations with respect to the Collateral, with the Collateral Trustee, for itself and on behalf of each of the Junior Lien Representatives and each holder of Junior Lien Obligations, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Parity Lien Representatives, for the Parity Lien Representatives and on behalf of the holders of the applicable Parity Lien Obligations, Collateral or proceeds of Collateral otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the holders of Junior Lien Obligations.

     SECTION 3.8 Additional Secured Debt.
          (a) The Collateral Trustee will, as trustee hereunder, perform its undertakings set forth in Section 3.1(a) with respect to each holder of Secured Obligations of a Series of Secured Debt that is issued or incurred after the date hereof that:
     (1) holds Secured Obligations that are identified as Parity Lien Debt or Junior Lien Debt in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.8(b);
     (2) signs, through its designated Secured Debt Representative identified pursuant to Section 3.8(b), a Collateral Trust Joinder and delivers the same to the Collateral Trustee and each other Secured Debt Representative at the time of incurrence of such Series of Secured Debt; and

The Company may only effect such designation by delivering to the Collateral Trustee an Additional Secured Debt Designation stating that:
     (1) the Company or such Guarantor intends to incur additional Secured Debt (Additional Secured Debt) which will either be (i) Parity Lien Debt permitted by each applicable Secured Debt Document to be secured by a Parity Lien Equally and Ratably with all previously existing and future Parity Lien Debt or (ii) Junior Lien Debt permitted by each applicable Secured Debt Document to be secured with a Junior Lien Equally and Ratably with all previously existing and future Junior Lien Debt;
     (2) specifying the name and address of the Secured Debt Representative for such series of Additional Secured Debt for purposes of Section 7.7.
     (3) the Company and each Guarantor has duly authorized, executed (if applicable) and recorded (or caused to be recorded) in each appropriate governmental office all relevant filings and recordations to ensure that the Additional Secured Debt is secured by the Collateral in accordance with the Security Documents, including, without limitation, the applicable Required Mortgage Amendment Deliverables (as defined in the Mortgage); and
     (4) the Company has caused a copy of the Additional Secured Debt Designation to be delivered to each then existing Secured Debt Representative.
Although the Company shall be required to deliver a copy of each Additional Secured Debt Designation and each Collateral Trust Joinder to each then existing Secured Debt Representative, the failure to so deliver a copy of the Additional Secured Debt Designation and/or Collateral Trust Joinder to any then existing Secured Debt Representative shall not affect the status of such

debt as Additional Secured Debt if the other requirements of this Section 3.8 are complied with. Each of the Collateral Trustee and the other then existing Secured Debt Representative shall have the right to request that the Company provide a copy of any legal opinion of counsel (which may be provided by internal counsel to the Company) provided to the holders of Additional Secured Debt or their Secured Debt Representatives as to the Additional Secured Debt being secured by a valid and perfected security interest.

     The Security Documents creating or evidencing the Parity Liens and the Junior Liens and Guarantees for the Parity Lien Obligations and the Junior Lien Obligations shall be in all material respects the same forms of documents other than with respect to the first lien and the second lien nature of the Obligations thereunder. So long as the Discharge of Parity Lien Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any Guarantor, the parties hereto agree that the Company shall not, and shall not permit any other Guarantor to grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any Junior Lien Obligation unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Parity Lien Obligations.

In the event there is any bona fide, good faith disagreement between the other parties to this Agreement or any of the other Security Documents resulting in adverse claims being made in connection with Collateral held by the Collateral Trustee, and the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Security Documents do not unambiguously mandate the action the Collateral Trustee is to take or not to take in connection therewith under the circumstances then existing, or the Collateral Trustee is in doubt as to what action it is required to take or not to take hereunder or under the other Security Documents, it will be entitled to refrain from taking any action (and will incur no liability for doing so) until directed otherwise in writing by a request signed jointly by the parties hereto entitled to give such direction or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

          (b) The Collateral Trustee will not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Trustee, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Company or any Guarantor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

The Collateral Trustee will not be liable to any Person for any environmental liability or any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Collateral Trustee’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to any kind of discharge or release or threatened discharge or release of any hazardous materials into the environment.

     (2) no amendment or supplement that reduces, impairs or adversely affects the right of any holder of Secured Obligations:
     (A) to vote its outstanding Secured Debt as to any matter described as subject to an Act of Required Debtholders or direction by the Required Parity Lien Debtholders or Required Junior Lien Debtholders (or amends the provisions of this clause (2) or the definitions of “Act of Required Debtholders”, “Required Parity Lien Debtholders” or “Required Junior Lien Debtholders”),
     (B) to share in the order of application described in Section 3.4 in the proceeds of enforcement of or realization on any Collateral that has not been released in accordance with the provisions described in Section 4.1, or
     (C) to require that Liens securing Secured Obligations be released only as set forth in the provisions described in Section 4.1,
will become effective without the consent of the requisite percentage or number of holders of each Series of Secured Debt so affected under the applicable Secured Debt Documents; and
     (3) no amendment or supplement that imposes any obligation upon the Collateral Trustee or any Secured Debt Representative or adversely affects the rights of the Collateral Trustee or any Secured Debt Representative, respectively, in its individual capacity as such will become effective without the consent of the Collateral Trustee or such Secured Debt Representative, respectively.
     (b) Notwithstanding Section 7.1(a) but subject to Sections 7.1(a)(2) and 7.1(a)(3):
     (1) any Security Document that secures Junior Lien Obligations (but not Parity Lien Obligations) may be amended or supplemented with the approval of the Collateral Trustee acting as directed in writing by the Required Junior Lien Debtholders, unless such amendment or supplement would not be permitted under the terms of this Agreement or the other Parity Lien Documents; and
     (2) any amendment or waiver of, or any consent under, any provision of this Agreement or any other Security Document that secures Parity Lien Obligations (except any such amendment, waiver or consent that releases Collateral with respect to which any consent of holders of Junior Lien Debt is required pursuant to this Agreement, which will be governed by the provisions set forth above) will apply automatically to any comparable provision of any comparable Junior Lien Document without the consent of or notice to any holder of Junior Lien Obligations and without any action by the Company or any Guarantor or any holder of notes or other Junior Lien Obligations.
Terremark — Collateral Trust Agreement

          (c) The Collateral Trustee will not enter into any amendment or supplement unless it has received an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such amendment or supplement will not result in a breach of any provision or covenant contained in any of the Secured Debt Documents. Prior to executing any amendment or supplement pursuant to this Section 7.1, the Collateral Trustee will be entitled to receive an opinion of counsel of the Company (which may be provided by internal counsel to the Company) to the effect that the execution of such document is authorized or permitted hereunder, and with respect to amendments adding Collateral, an opinion of counsel of the Company addressing customary perfection, and if such additional Collateral consists of equity interests of any Person, priority matters with respect to such additional Collateral (subject to customary qualifications and assumptions).
          (d) The holders of Junior Lien Obligations and the Junior Lien Representatives agree that each Security Document that secures Junior Lien Obligations (but not also securing Parity Lien Obligations) will include language substantially to the effect of the following:
     “Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Trustee pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by such Collateral Trustee hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Collateral Trust Agreement, dated as of June 24, 2009, among the Company, the Guarantors from time to time party thereto, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee under the Indenture (as defined therein) and U.S. Bank National Association, as Collateral Trustee (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the “Collateral Trust Agreement”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement will govern.”
; provided, however, that if the jurisdiction in which any such Junior Lien Document will be filed prohibits the inclusion of the language above or would prevent a document containing such language from being recorded, the Junior Lien Representatives and the Parity Lien Representatives agree, prior to such Junior Lien Document being entered into, to negotiate in good faith replacement language stating that the lien and security interest granted under such Junior Lien Document is subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
     SECTION 7.2 Voting. In connection with any matter under this Agreement requiring a vote of holders of Secured Debt, each Series of Secured Debt will cast its votes in accordance with the Secured Debt Documents governing such Series of Secured Debt. The amount of Secured Debt to be voted by a Series of Secured Debt will equal (1) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Secured Debt held by such Series of Secured Debt (including outstanding letters of credit whether or not then available or drawn), plus (2) the aggregate unfunded commitments to extend credit which, when funded, would constitute Indebtedness of such Series of Secured Debt. Following and in accordance with the outcome of the applicable vote under its Secured Debt Documents, the Secured Debt Representative of each Series of Secured Debt will vote the total amount of Secured Debt under that Series of Secured Debt as a block in respect of any vote under this Agreement.

The Company shall promptly provide each Secured Debt Representative with a copy of each Collateral Trust Joinder executed and delivered pursuant to this Section 7.20; provided, however, that the failure to so deliver a copy of the Collateral Trust Joinder to any then existing Secured Debt Representative shall not affect the inclusion of such Person as a Guarantor if the other requirements of this Section 7.20 are complied with.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Terremark verbage)
MIAMI — June 24, 2009 — Terremark Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ:TMRK) today announced the successful completion of the previously announced private placement of $420 million of its 12% senior secured notes due 2017 at an issue price of 95.134%. The offering was made to qualified institutional buyers and to certain non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in accordance with Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Terremark used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to repay in full the $254.2 million outstanding under its senior secured credit facilities and intends to use a portion of the net proceeds to repay at maturity $4.0 million principal amount of its 0.5% senior subordinated convertible notes, due June 30, 2009. The Company will use any remaining proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes to support the growth of its business, which may include capital investments to build out facilities and acquisitions of complementary businesses.
The notes and guarantees will be secured by first priority liens on substantially all of the assets of Terremark and its domestic subsidiaries.
This press release is neither an offer to sell nor the solicitation of an offer to buy the notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which, or to any persons to whom, such an offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. This press release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act.
Statements contained in this press release may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Terremark’s actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements due to a number of risks, including the ability to cross-sell across an acquired customer base, ability to increase revenue yields within facilities, ability to refinance existing debt, uncertainties and other factors, as discussed in Terremark’s filings with the SEC. These factors include, without limitation, Terremark’s ability to obtain funding for its business plans, uncertainty in the demand for Terremark’s services or products, Terremark’s ability to manage its growth, and the successful integration of operations of acquired companies. Terremark does not assume any obligation to update these forward-looking statements.
