Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (a) This Agreement shall amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Existing Credit Agreement is merged and incorporated into this Agreement and (b) this Agreement shall supersede and control any inconsistent provision in the Existing Credit Agreement. All references in the Loan Documents (including the Existing Loan Documents) to the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby modified and shall now be deemed to refer to this Agreement. All references in the Loan Documents (including the Existing Loan Documents) to the Obligations, the Notes, the Loan Documents and other terms defined herein are hereby modified and shall now be deemed to refer to such terms and items as defined or described in this Agreement. The Guaranty shall guarantee the Notes and the Guaranteed Obligations as defined and described in this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing and in confirmation of the Liens intended to be granted pursuant to the Loan Documents (including any Existing Loan Documents), each Loan Party grants, conveys, and assigns to the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Lenders, a lien against and security interest in all collateral (if any) described in such Loan Documents as security for the Guaranteed Obligations. Except as modified hereby or by any other Loan Document (whether dated as of or prior to the Agreement Date) which expressly modifies any of the Existing Loan Documents, all of the terms and provisions of the Existing Loan Documents (including schedules and exhibits thereto), and the indebtedness, duties and obligations thereunder, are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement shall not, however, constitute a novation of the Loan Parties’ indebtedness, duties and obligations under or with respect to the Existing Loan Documents, the Existing Loans thereunder or the Existing Letters of Credit issued thereunder.
(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, on the Agreement Date (i) all outstanding Existing Loans shall continue to be Revolving Loans hereunder and each applicable Existing Lender shall be deemed to sell, and each New Lender and each Existing Lender whose Revolving Commitments are increasing on the Agreement Date shall be deemed to purchase, an interest therein as required to establish Revolving Loans for each of the Revolving Lenders based on such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage, and the Administrative Agent shall make such transfers of funds as are necessary in order that the outstanding balances of such Revolving Loans and any other Revolving Loans funded on the Agreement Date, reflect the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders hereunder; (ii) all Existing Letters of Credit shall continue to be Letters of Credit hereunder and each applicable Existing Lender that is a Revolving Lender shall be deemed to sell, and each New Lender and each Existing Lender whose Revolving Commitments are increasing on the Agreement Date shall be deemed to purchase, an interest therein as required to establish the Letter of Credit participations therein in accordance with its respective Revolving Commitment Percentage; (iii) there shall have been credited to the Existing Lenders all accrued but unpaid interest due on the Existing Loans and Existing Letters of Credit to but excluding the Agreement Date; and (iv) there shall have been credited to the Existing Lenders all accrued but unpaid fees under the Existing Loans and Existing Letters of Credit owing to but excluding the Agreement Date and all other amounts, costs and expenses then owing to any of the Existing Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent under the Existing Loan Agreement, regardless of whether such amounts would otherwise be due and payable at such time pursuant to the terms of the Existing Loan Agreement.
(c) On the Effective Date, the commitment of each Lender that is a party to the Existing Credit Agreement, but not a party to this Agreement (other than for purposes of this Section 13.22) (an “Exiting Lender”), shall be terminated, all outstanding obligations owing to such Exiting Lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement on the Effective Date shall be paid in full as provided in this Section, and each Exiting Lender shall cease to be a Lender under this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything else provided herein or otherwise, any rights of an Exiting Lender under the Loan Documents that are intended by their express terms to survive termination of the Revolving Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of obligations under any Loan Document shall survive for such Exiting Lender hereunder.
Execution and Delivery of Agreement Each of the parties shall be entitled to rely on delivery by fax transmission of an executed copy of this agreement by the other party, and acceptance of such fax copies shall create a valid and binding agreement between the parties.
