Limitation on Asset Sales The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:
(1) the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets that are sold or otherwise disposed of, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors or a senior officer of the Company; and
(2) at least 75% of the consideration received by the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary from the Asset Sale is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that in the case of the sale of all of the IMC Salt Business Unit and Xxxxx, in the alternative, up to 35% of the consideration received by the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary in the sale may be in the form of Capital Stock of the Person that will hold the IMC Salt Business Unit and Xxxxx following the Asset Sale if the remainder is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided, further, that the requirement in this clause (2) shall not apply in the case of the sale of all or any part of the IMC Chemicals Business Unit. For the purposes of clause (2) above, the amount of any Indebtedness shown on the most recent applicable balance sheet of the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, other than Indebtedness that is by its terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee, that is assumed by the transferee of any such assets will be deemed to be cash. Additionally, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, must apply the Net Cash Proceeds from each Asset Sale to:
(1) repay Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement;
(2) repay (including by purchase) secured obligations;
(3) repay (including by purchase) any Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor; and/or
(4) make an investment in or expenditures for assets (including Capital Stock of any entity) (a) that replace the assets that were the subject of the Asset Sale or (b) that will be used in the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as existing on the Issue Date or in businesses reasonably related thereto (“Replacement Assets”). Any Net Cash Proceeds that the Company does not apply, or decides not to apply, in accordance with the preceding paragraph will constitute a “Net Proceeds Offer Amount.” The 366th day after an Asset Sale or any earlier date on which the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to apply the Net Cash Proceeds in accordance with the preceding paragraph is a “Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date.” When the aggregate Net Proceeds Offer Amount is equal to or exceeds $25.0 million, the Company must make an offer to purchase (the “Net Proceeds Offer”) on a date that is not less than 30 days nor more than 45 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, from
(a) all Holders of Notes and
(b) all holders of other Indebtedness (“Other Indebtedness”) that (x) is not, by its terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and (y) contains provisions requiring that an offer to purchase such Other Indebtedness be made with the proceeds from the Asset Sale, on a pro rata basis, the maximum principal amount of Notes and Other Indebtedness that may be purchased with the Net Proceeds Offer Amount. The offer price for Notes in any Net Proceeds Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes, if any, to the date of purchase. The following events will be deemed to constitute an Asset Sale and the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale must be applied in accordance with this Section 4.10:
(1) in the event any non-cash consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company 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), or
(2) in the event of the transfer of substantially all, but not all, of the assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as an entirety to a Person in a transaction permitted under Section 5.01, and as a result thereof the Company is no longer an obligor on the Notes, the successor corporation shall be deemed to have sold the assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries not so transferred for purposes of this Section 4.10, and shall comply with the provisions of this Section 4.10 with respect to such deemed sale as if it were an Asset Sale. In addition, the fair market value of such assets of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries deemed to be sold shall be deemed to be Net Cash Proceeds for purposes of this Section 4.10. Notwithstanding the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraphs, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may consummate an Asset Sale without complying with such provisions to the extent that (a) at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale constitutes Replacement Assets and (b) such Asset Sale is for fair market value. Any cash consideration that does not constitute Replacement Assets that is received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with any Asset Sale permitted under this paragraph will constitute Net Cash Proceeds and will be subject to the provisions described in the preceding paragraphs. The Company shall mail a notice of a Net Proceeds Offer by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the record Holders as shown on the register of Holders within 30 days following the Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date, with a copy to the Trustee, containing all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer and shall state the following terms:
(1) that the Net Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.10, that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment; provided, however, that if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Other Indebtedness tendered in a Net Proceeds Offer plus accrued interest at the expiration of such offer exceeds the aggregate amount of the Net Proceeds Offer, the Company shall select on a pro rata basis, the Notes and Other Indebtedness to be purchased (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, as applicable, or multiples thereof shall be purchased) and that the Net Proceeds Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 business days or such longer periods as may be required by law;
(2) the offer price (including the amount of accrued interest) and the Net Proceeds Offer date of payment (“Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date”) (which shall be not less than 30 nor more than 45 days following the applicable Net Proceeds Offer Trigger Date and which shall be at least five business days after the Trustee receives notice thereof from the Company);
(3) that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest;
(4) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment therefor, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date;
(5) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer will be required to surrender such Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the business day prior to the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date;
(6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the second business day prior to the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of the Notes such Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; and
(7) that Holders whose Notes are purchased only in part will be issued new Notes in a principal amount equal to the unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided, however, that each Note purchased and each new Note issued shall be in an original principal amount of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof. On or before the Net Proceeds Offer Payment Date, the Company shall (a) accept for payment Notes or portions thereof (in integral multiples of $1,000) validly tendered pursuant to the Net Proceeds Offer, (b) deposit with the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 2.15 U.S. Dollars sufficient to pay the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, of all Notes to be purchased and (c) deliver to the Trustee Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Company. Upon receipt by the Paying Agent of the monies specified in clause (b) above and a copy of the Officers’ Certificate specified in clause (c) above, the Paying Agent shall promptly mail to the Holders of Notes so accepted payment in an amount equal to the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, out of the funds deposited with the Paying Agent in accordance with the preceding sentence. The Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail to such Holders new Notes equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. Upon the payment of the purchase price for the Notes accepted for purchase, the Trustee shall return the Notes purchased to the Company for cancellation. Any monies remaining after the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer shall be returned within three business days by the Trustee to the Company except with respect to monies owed as obligations to the Trustee pursuant to Article Seven. For purposes of this Section 4.10, the Trustee shall act as the Paying Agent. To the extent the amount of Notes tendered pursuant to any Net Proceeds Offer is less than the amount of Net Cash Proceeds subject to such Net Proceeds Offer, the Company may use any remaining portion of such Net Cash Proceeds not required to fund the repurchase of tendered Notes for general corporate purposes and such Net Proceeds Offer Amount shall be reset to zero. The Company 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 this Section 4.10, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the provisions of this Section 4.10 by virtue thereof.
Limitation on Transfer The Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant or the Participant’s Permitted Transferee(s), as determined in accordance with the terms of the Plan (including without limitation the requirement that the Participant obtain the prior written approval by the Committee of any proposed Transfer to a Permitted Transferee during the lifetime of the Participant). Each Permitted Transferee shall be subject to all the restrictions, obligations, and responsibilities as apply to the Participant under the Plan and this Stock Option Grant Agreement and shall be entitled to all the rights of the Participant under the Plan, provided that in respect of any Permitted Transferee which is a trust or custodianship, the Option shall become exercisable and/or expire based on the Employment and termination of Employment of the Participant. All Shares obtained pursuant to the Option granted herein shall not be transferred except as provided in the Plan and, where applicable, the Management Investor Rights Agreement.
