In the event any such contract is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, then such Net Proceeds must be applied as set forth herein and, if such termination or cancellation occurs later than the 360-day period, shall constitute Excess Proceeds as set forth below. (ii) Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not applied as provided and within the time period set forth in clause (i) of this Section 2.06(b) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20,000,000, the Borrowers shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereof, make an offer (the “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Lenders (and all holders of other Pari Passu Obligations containing provisions similar to this Section 2.06(b)) to repay the maximum principal amount of Loans (and such other Pari Passu Obligations) that may be repaid out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (or, in respect of such Pari Passu Obligations, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such Pari Passu Obligations), to the date fixed for the closing of such offer. (iii) To the extent that the aggregate amount of Loans (and such Pari Passu Obligations) accepted for repayment or tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Borrowers may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose that is not prohibited by the Loan Documents; provided that pending any such application, the proceeds of the Asset Sale, whether assets, property or cash, are subject to a Lien under the Collateral Agreements. If the aggregate principal amount of Loans (and other Pari Passu Obligations) accepted for repayment or surrendered by holders thereof pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Administrative Agent shall apply the Excess Proceeds ratably to the repayment of the Loans and any other tendered Pari Passu Obligations based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Loans or such Pari Passu Obligations accepted for repayment or tendered. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. (iv) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds under clause (i) or (iii), the Company may temporarily reduce outstanding revolving credit Indebtedness of the Parent, the Borrowers, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Other Guarantor, or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in cash and Cash Equivalents. (v) The Administrative Borrower shall deliver any Asset Sale Offer required under clause (ii) by written notice of such occurrence to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver notice to each Lender to the address of such Lender appearing in the Register or otherwise in accordance with Section 10.02 with the following information: (1) that the Borrowers are making an Asset Sale Offer pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) and that all Loans and other applicable Pari Passu Obligations properly accepted for repayment or tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer will be repaid by the Borrowers; (2) the repayment date, which will be no earlier than thirty days nor later than sixty days from the date on which such notice is delivered (the “Asset Sale Offer Payment Date”); (3) that any Loan not properly accepted for repayment will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest; (4) that unless the Borrowers default in making the payment, all Loans accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Asset Sale Offer Payment Date; (5) that Lenders electing to have any Loans repaid pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer will be required to notify the Administrative Agent prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Asset Sale Offer Payment Date; (6) that Lenders will be entitled to withdraw their election to require the Borrowers to repay such Loans; provided that the Administrative Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the expiration date of the Asset Sale Offer, a facsimile transmission, electronic mail or letter setting forth the name of such Lender, the principal amount of Loans to be repaid, and a statement that such Lender is withdrawing its election to have such Loans repaid; (7) that, to the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Loans or the other Pari Passu Obligations accepted for repayment or surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Administrative Agent will apply the Excess Proceeds as set forth under the second-to-last sentence of Section 2.06(b)(iii); and (8) the other instructions, as determined by the Administrative Borrower or as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, consistent with this Section 2.06(b), that a Lender must follow in order to have its Loans repaid. The notice, if delivered in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Lender receives such notice. If (x) the notice is delivered in a manner herein provided and (y) any Lender fails to receive such notice or a Lender receives such notice but it is defective, such Lender’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the repayment of the Loans as to all other Lenders that properly received such notice without defect.
Asset Disposition If the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than a Financing Subsidiary) Disposes of any property which results in the receipt by such Person of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $2,000,000 in the aggregate since the applicable Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of such Loans owed to such Lender or Lenders equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds no later than the fifth Business Day following the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in Section 2.09(b)).
Asset Dispositions None of the Borrower Entities shall, directly or indirectly, sell, lease, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose (including via any sale and leaseback transaction) of any of its non-cash assets or property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, except for Permitted Sales and the following (“Permitted Asset Dispositions”), which Permitted Asset Dispositions may fall within any one of the following categories (whether or not such Permitted Asset Dispositions could fall within one or more other categories and, if an asset disposition could qualify for more than one category of Permitted Asset Dispositions, the Borrower may designate which category the asset disposition qualifies for without such asset disposition counting against other categories): (i) Sales of inventory in the ordinary course of their businesses; (ii) Sales or dispositions of damaged, worn, obsolete, or other unneeded assets in the ordinary course of their businesses for not less than Fair Market Value; (iii) Sales or other dispositions of Investments permitted by Section 5.02(e)(ii) for not less than Fair Market Value; provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (iv) [Intentionally Omitted]; (v) Sales or other dispositions of the entities listed on Schedule 5.02(c)(v); provided, however, that in connection with any sale or other disposition of substantially all of the Equity Securities and/or substantially all of the assets of Atlanta AG, the Borrower shall be in Pro Forma Compliance with all Financial Covenants after giving effect to such sale or disposition and no later than the date of any such sale or disposition, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate executed by the Chief Accounting Officer or Treasurer of the Borrower which sets forth the calculation of Pro Forma Compliance with all Financial Covenants set forth in Section 5.03 after giving effect to such sale or disposition; (vi) Sales or other transfers of property and assets from De Minimis US Subsidiaries dissolved pursuant to Section 5.02(d)(ii); and (vii) Sales or other dispositions for Fair Market Value, the Net Cash Proceeds of which are applied to the prepayment of the Loans or otherwise as set forth in Section 2.06(c); provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or result from such sale or other disposition, the Borrower shall be in Pro Forma Compliance with all Financial Covenants after giving effect to such Permitted Asset Disposition and no later than the date of the Permitted Asset Disposition pursuant to this clause (vii), the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Compliance Certificate which (A) states that no Default has occurred or is continuing and (B) sets forth the calculation of Pro Forma Compliance with all Financial Covenants set forth in Section 5.03 after giving effect to the Permitted Asset Disposition; and provided, further, that the Borrower’s requirement to advise the Administrative Agent as provided above shall not apply to any Relevant Sales that in the aggregate are equal to or less than $5,000,000 for such fiscal year.

Asset Sales (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: (1) the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of, as approved in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors; and (2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision only (and specifically not for the purposes of the definition of “Net Proceeds”), 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 and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets; (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); (C) any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) since the Issue Date that is at the time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (a) $300.0 million and (b) 3.5% of Consolidated Total Assets at the time of receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value; and (D) the fair market value (measured as of the date such Equity Interests or assets are received) of any Equity Interests or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2) or (4) of Section 4.10(b). (b) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply an amount equal to the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale: (1) to repay, prepay, redeem or repurchase Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) and other Obligations (other than Subordinated Indebtedness); (2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of another Related Business, or to acquire any Equity Interests of another Related Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Equity Interests, the Related Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; (3) to make a capital expenditure; (4) to acquire other assets (other than securities or current assets) that will be used or useful in a Related Business; or (5) a combination of prepayments and investments permitted by the foregoing clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4); provided that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be deemed to have applied such Net Proceeds pursuant to clause (2), (3) or (4) of this Section 4.10(b), as applicable, if and to the extent that, within 365 days after the Asset Sale that generated the Net Proceeds, the Company has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement to consummate any reinvestment described in clause (2), (3) or (4) of this paragraph, and such reinvestment is thereafter completed within 180 days after the end of such 365-day period. (c) Pending the final application of such Net Proceeds, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce borrowings under the Credit Facilities or any other revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. Subject to Section 4.10(e), on the 366th day (as extended pursuant to the provisions in the preceding paragraph) after an Asset Sale or such earlier date, if any, as the Board of Directors of the Company or of such Restricted Subsidiary determines not to apply the Net Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale as set forth in clause (1), (2), (3), (4) or (5) of Section 4.10(b) (each, a “Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date”), such aggregate amount of Net Proceeds which have not been applied on or before such Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date as permitted in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4) or (5) of Section 4.10(b) (each a “Net Proceeds Offer Amount”) shall be applied by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to make an offer to purchase (the “Net Proceeds Offer”) on a date (the “Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date”) not less than 15 nor more than 60 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, from all Holders (and, if required by the terms of any other Indebtedness of the Company ranking pari passu with the Notes in right of payment and which has similar provisions requiring the Company either to make an offer to repurchase or to otherwise repurchase, redeem or repay such Indebtedness with the proceeds from Asset Sales (the “Pari Passu Indebtedness”), from the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness) on a pro rata basis (in proportion to the respective principal amounts or accreted value, as the case may be, of the Notes and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness) an aggregate principal amount of Notes (plus, if applicable, an aggregate principal amount or accreted value, as the case may be, of Pari Passu Indebtedness) equal to the Net Proceeds Offer Amount. The offer price in any Net Proceeds Offer shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes (or 100% of the principal amount or accreted value, as the case may be, of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then such conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.10. (e) The Company may defer the Net Proceeds Offer until there is an aggregate unutilized Net Proceeds Offer Amount equal to or in excess of $200.0 million resulting from one or more Asset Sales (at which time the entire unutilized Net Proceeds Offer Amount, and not just the amount in excess of $200.0 million, shall be applied as required pursuant to Section 4.10, and in which case the Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date shall be deemed to be the earliest date that the Net Proceeds Offer Amount is equal to or in excess of $200.0 million). (f) Each Net Proceeds Offer will be sent to the record Holders as shown on the register of Holders within 25 days following the Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, with a copy to the Trustee, and shall comply with the procedures set forth in Section 3.09. Upon receiving notice of the Net Proceeds Offer, Holders may elect to tender their Notes in whole or in part in minimum denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof in exchange for cash. To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes (plus, if applicable, the aggregate principal amount or accreted value, as the case may be, of Pari Passu Indebtedness) validly tendered by the Holders thereof and not withdrawn exceeds the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, Notes of tendering Holders (and, if applicable, Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered by the holders thereof) will be purchased on a pro rata basis (based on the principal amount of the Notes and, if applicable, the principal amount or accreted value, as the case may be, of any such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered and not withdrawn). To the extent that the aggregate amount of the Notes (plus, if applicable, the aggregate principal amount or accreted value, as the case may be, of any Pari Passu Indebtedness) tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer is less than the Net Proceeds Offer Amount, the Company may use such excess Net Proceeds Offer Amount for general corporate purposes or for any other purpose not prohibited by this Indenture. Upon completion of any such Net Proceeds Offer, the Net Proceeds Offer Amount shall be reset at zero. A Net Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days or such longer period as may be required by applicable law. (g) The Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance.
Offer to Purchase upon Change of Control Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuers will make an Offer to Purchase (the “Change of Control Offer”) all of the outstanding Notes at a Purchase Price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount tendered, together with accrued interest, if any, to but not including the Purchase Date (the “Change of Control Payment”). For purposes of the foregoing, an Offer to Purchase shall be deemed to have been made if (i) within 30 days following the date of the consummation of a transaction or series of transactions that constitutes a Change of Control, the Issuers commence an Offer to Purchase all outstanding Notes at the Purchase Price (provided that the running of such 30-day period shall be suspended, for up to a maximum of 30 days, during any period when the commencement of such Offer to Purchase is delayed or suspended by reason of any court’s or governmental authority’s review of or ruling on any materials being employed by the Issuers to effect such Offer to Purchase, so long as the Issuers have used and continue to use their commercial best efforts to make and conclude such Offer to Purchase promptly) and (ii) all Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Offer to Purchase are purchased on the terms of such Offer to Purchase. The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of any applicable securities laws and any regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. On the Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful, (a) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (b) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and (c) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Issuers. The Paying Agent will promptly mail (or wire transfer) to each Holder of Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (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 such new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuers will announce the results of the Change of Control Offer to all Holders on or as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date. The Change of Control provisions described above will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, this Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the Holders to require that the Issuers repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction. The Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer contemporaneously with or upon a Change of Control in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth herein applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.7. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such conflict. In addition, an Offer to Purchase may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of launching the Offer to Purchase.
Asset Dispositions, etc The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, sell, transfer, contribute or otherwise convey, or grant options, warrants or other rights with respect to, all or substantially all of the assets of (a) the Borrower or (b) the Subsidiaries of the Borrower, taken as a whole, except sales of assets between or among the Borrower and Subsidiaries of the Borrower.

Change of Control Offer If a Change of Control Triggering Event (defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Securities as provided for herein, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of the Securities to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that holder’s Securities on the terms set forth herein. In a Change of Control Offer, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities repurchased to the date of repurchase (a “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control (defined below), but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed to holders of the Securities a notice describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Securities on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. In order to accept any Change of Control Offer, a holder shall be required to comply with instructions for tendering contained in the Company’s notice of such Change of Control Offer as well as the applicable procedures of the Depositary. On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful: (i) accept for payment all Securities or portions of such Securities 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 Securities or portions of such Securities properly tendered; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions of such Securities being repurchased. On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall pay, from funds deposited by the Company for such purpose, to each holder of Securities properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Securities, and the Trustee will authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of such holder’s Securities surrendered. The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and the third party purchases all Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Company shall not repurchase any Securities if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act or any other securities laws or regulations thereunder that are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions hereof, the Company shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Securities by virtue of any such conflict. For purposes of the Change of Control Offer, the following have the meanings ascribed to them as set forth below:
