(vii) all present and future claims, demands, causes and choses in action in respect of any or all of the foregoing described in clauses (i) through (vi) above and all payments on or under and all proceeds of every kind and nature whatsoever in respect of any or all the foregoing, including all proceeds of the conversion of any or all of the foregoing, voluntary or involuntary, into cash or other liquid property, all cash proceeds, accounts, accounts receivable, notes, drafts, acceptances, chattel paper, checks, deposit accounts, insurance proceeds, investment property, payment intangibles, general intangibles, condemnation awards, rights to payment of any and every kind and other forms of obligations and receivables, instruments and other property which at any time constitute all or part of or are included in the proceeds of any of the foregoing. The property described in clauses (i) through (vii) above is referred to herein collectively as the “Initial Purchased Property.”
Initial Purchase Price (a) Prior to Closing, the Company shall prepare (and, if requested by Purchaser, in consultation with Purchaser), and at least four Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser, a written statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth:
(i) the Company’s good faith estimate and supporting calculations of (I) the Cash Amount (the “Estimated Cash Amount”), (II) the Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”), (III) the Indebtedness Amount (the “Estimated Indebtedness Amount”) and (IV) the Transaction Expenses Amount (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount”);
(ii) payment instructions for the payment of the Closing Consideration;
(iii) a list of and, as applicable, payment instructions for the payment of, each of the Transaction Expenses included in the Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount; and
(iv) the calculation of the Initial Purchase Price and Closing Consideration derived therefrom.
(b) During the preparation of the Closing Statement (if requested by Purchaser) and after the delivery of the Closing Statement, Purchaser and its Representatives shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and to discuss with the Company and its Representatives (a) the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ working papers and the working papers of the Company’s independent accountants, if any, relating to the preparation of the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Estimated Cash Amount, Estimated Net Working Capital, Estimated Indebtedness Amount and Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount and (b) the relevant books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the Cash Amount, the Net Working Capital, the Indebtedness Amount or the Transaction Expenses Amount; and the Company and its Representatives shall reasonably assist Purchaser and its representatives in their review of the Closing Statement and the preparation thereof and reasonably cooperate with respect thereto. In the event Purchaser notifies the Company in writing prior to the Closing that it disputes any amount set forth in the Closing Statement, Purchaser and the Company shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as practicable prior to the Closing Date. If, prior to the Closing, Purchaser and the Company agree in writing to any component on the Closing Statement, then such components of the Closing Statement shall be modified as so agreed. The Closing shall not be delayed if Purchaser and the Company are unable, after any such cooperation, to agree on all of the components of the Closing Statement and, except as otherwise agreed to by Purchaser and the Company in writing, the parties shall use the Closing Statement as delivered by the Company for purposes of determining the Closing Consideration (without limiting any of the provisions of this Agreement, including Article II).
(c) From 12:00 a.m. on the Closing Date and until the Closing, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any dividend or distributions of Cash or incur any Indebtedness or Transaction Expenses (other than as a result of the Financing or as already fully reflected in the Closing Statement) or use any Cash to pay any Transaction Expenses or to repay any Indebtedness. If, as a result of a breach by the Company of any of its covenants contained in this Section 1.02(c), Cash, Transaction Expenses or Indebtedness shall have changed between 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date and the time immediately preceding the Closing, then any such changes shall be included in the calculation of Cash Amount, Transaction Expenses Amount and/or Indebtedness Amount (as the case may be) for purposes of the Closing Statement.
(d) For purposes of this Agreement,
Defaulting Initial Purchaser (a) If, on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser defaults on its obligation to purchase the Securities that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities by other persons satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Initial Purchaser, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers to purchase such Securities on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser, either the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or the Company may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Initial Purchasers may be necessary in the Time of Sale Information, the Offering Memorandum or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Time of Sale Information or the Offering Memorandum that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this Section 9, purchases Securities that a defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase.
Initial Purchasers See the introductory paragraph to this Agreement.
Defaulting Initial Purchasers If, on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall be obligated to purchase the Notes that such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase on the Closing Date (the “Remaining Notes”) in the respective proportions that the principal amount of the Notes set opposite the name of each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser in Schedule I hereto bears to the total number of the Notes set opposite the names of all the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers in Schedule I hereto; provided, however, that the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall not be obligated to purchase any of the Notes on the Closing Date if the total amount of Notes which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase on such date exceeds 10% of the total amount of Notes to be purchased on the Closing Date, and no non-defaulting Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase more than 110% of the amount of Notes that it agreed to purchase on the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement. If the foregoing maximums are exceeded, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or those other purchasers satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers and the Company who so agree, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase, in such proportion as may be agreed upon among them, all the Remaining Notes. If the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or other Initial Purchasers satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers do not elect to purchase the Remaining Notes, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses to the extent set forth herein. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the Company for damages caused by its default. If other purchasers are obligated or agree to purchase the Notes of a defaulting or withdrawing Initial Purchaser, the Company or the Representative may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes in the Transaction Documents or in any other document or arrangement that, in the opinion of counsel for the Company or Counsel for the Initial Purchasers, may be necessary.
Optional Purchase (a) On any Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class A Note Balance plus the Class B Note Balance plus the Class C Note Balance has been or will, after giving effect to the application of Available Funds on such Distribution Date, be less than or equal to 10% of the sum of the initial Class A Note Balance plus the initial Class B Note Balance plus the initial Class C Note Balance, the Servicer shall have the option, upon no less than twenty (20) days prior written notice prior (or such lesser number of days permissible by the Clearing Agency and reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) to the related Distribution Date to the Issuer, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies, to reacquire the Trust Property, other than the Trust Accounts. The Indenture Trustee shall provide notice of the Optional Purchase to the Noteholders within 5 Business Days of its receipt of the Servicer’s notice. To exercise such option, the Servicer shall deposit pursuant to Section 5.04 in the Collection Account an amount equal to: (x) the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Loans, plus (y) the fair market value of any other property held by the Trust (other than the Trust Accounts), plus (z) sufficient funds to pay interest on the Notes through the date of redemption after giving effect to the application of Available Funds on such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not exercise such option unless the purchase price paid by the Servicer and other funds held by the Issuer are sufficient to pay the full amount of principal and interest due and payable on each class of the Notes, and all amounts due and payable to the Indenture Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Owner Trustee under the Basic Documents. Upon such deposit the Servicer shall succeed to all interests in and to the Trust (other than the Trust Accounts).
(b) Notice of any termination of the Trust shall be given by the Servicer to the Board of Trustees, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Rating Agencies as soon as practicable after the Servicer has received notice of the occurrence of an event of termination under Section 9.1(a) of the Trust Agreement.
Preferential Purchase Rights (a) Seller shall transmit all required notices with respect to preferential right to purchase provisions relative to any Property (“PPRs”) set forth in Schedule 4.1(n), promptly after the execution of this Agreement but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after execution of this Agreement by the Parties. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall notify Buyer if any PPRs are exercised or if the requisite period has elapsed without said rights having been exercised.
(b) If a Person to whom a notice of a PPR has been given elects to purchase the Properties covered by such PPR in accordance with the Applicable Contract, then such Properties may be sold to such holder of the PPR subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and such Properties will not be sold to the Party originally executing this Agreement as “Buyer” (subject to the remaining provisions in this Section) and the Purchase Price will be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Property in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(iv). Upon the consummation of the sale of any Properties to the holder of such PPR, such Properties shall be deemed excluded from the transactions contemplated hereby for all purposes.
(c) If by Closing, the time frame for the exercise of a PPR applicable to a Property has not expired and Seller has not received notice of an intent not to exercise or a waiver of the PPR, such Property shall be excluded from the sale under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and the Purchase Price will be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Property in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(iv).
(d) If, after the Closing, the holder of a PPR with respect to any Property excluded pursuant to this Section 6.9 fails to consummate the purchase of such Property in accordance with the terms and conditions of such PPR or if the time frame in which to exercise PPR expires without exercise, then, within ten (10) Business Days of Seller’s providing Buyer with notice thereof, Buyer shall purchase (at a purchase price equal to the Allocated Value thereof, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2 through the date of such assignment), and Seller shall assign to Buyer pursuant to an assignment in substantially the same form as the Assignment, such Property.
Default by an Initial Purchaser If any one or more Initial Purchasers shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Initial Purchasers) the Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Initial Purchasers do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser or the Company. In the event of a default by any Initial Purchaser as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser of its liability, if any, to the Company or any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.
Offering by Initial Purchasers Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to and agrees with the Issuer that:
(a) It is a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Act (a “QIB”), and an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of the Act and acknowledges that it is purchasing the Securities pursuant to a private sale exemption from registration under the Act.
(b) It has not offered or sold, and will not offer or sell, any Securities except (i) to those it reasonably believes to be qualified institutional buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the Act) and that, in connection with each such sale, it has taken or will take reasonable steps to ensure that the purchaser of such Securities is aware that such sale is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (ii) in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Exhibit A hereto. Each of the Initial Purchasers will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it acquires, offers, sells or delivers Securities or has in its possession or distributes the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Final Memorandum, any Issuer Written Communication or any such other material, in all cases at its own expense, except as provided in Section 5(m).
(c) Neither it nor any person acting on its behalf has made or will make offers or sales of the Securities in the United States by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) in the United States or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a) of the Act.
(d) Each Initial Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Issuer and, for the purposes of the opinions to be delivered to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 6(a) through 6(d), (i) counsel for the Companies and counsel for Holdings and (ii) counsel for the Initial Purchasers, respectively, may rely upon the accuracy of the representations and warranties of such Initial Purchaser, and compliance of such Initial Purchaser with its agreements, contained in paragraphs 4(a) through (c), above, and such Initial Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.
