Certain Obligations Respecting Subsidiaries Except as permitted by Section 9.05 hereof, the Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that the Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries at all times own (subject only to the Lien of the Security Documents and Liens permitted by Section 9.06) at least the same percentage of the issued and outstanding shares of each class of stock of each of such Restricted Subsidiaries the stock of which is subject to the Lien of the Security Documents as is owned on the date of this Agreement or, in the case of New Wholly Owned Subsidiaries which are Restricted Subsidiaries created or acquired after the date of this Agreement (other than any Wholly Owned Subsidiaries of such Persons), the stock of which are required to be subject to the Lien of the Security Documents, 100% of each class of stock of each of such Subsidiaries (each of the Subsidiaries referred to above being herein called, a “Pledged Subsidiary”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and except as permitted by Section 9.05, none of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of stock in any Pledged Subsidiary owned by it, nor permit any Pledged Subsidiary to issue any shares of stock of any class whatsoever to any Person (other than to the Borrower or another Obligor). In the event that any such additional shares of stock are issued by any Pledged Subsidiary, the respective Obligor agrees forthwith to deliver to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Documents the certificates evidencing such shares of stock, accompanied by undated stock powers executed in blank and shall take such other action as the Administrative Agent shall request to perfect the security interest created therein pursuant to the Security Documents. Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, the Borrower shall not and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to enter into any indenture, agreement, instrument or other arrangement (other than this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) that, directly or indirectly, prohibits or restrains, or has the effect of prohibiting or restraining, or imposes conditions upon the incurrence or payment of Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, or the declaration or payment of dividends to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.
01 of the Credit Agreement Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
Credit Agreement; Guarantee and Collateral Agreement The Administrative Agent shall have received (i) this Agreement, executed and delivered by the Administrative Agent, Holdings, the Borrower and each Person listed on Schedule 1.1A and (ii) the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, executed and delivered by Holdings, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor.
Additional Guarantors and Grantors Subject to any applicable limitations set forth in the Security Documents, the Borrower will cause each direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiary (excluding any Excluded Subsidiary) formed or otherwise purchased or acquired after the Original Closing Date (including pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition) and each other Domestic Subsidiary that ceases to constitute an Excluded Subsidiary to, within 30 days from the date of such formation, acquisition or cessation, as applicable (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion), and Borrower may at its option cause any Subsidiary to, execute a supplement to each of the Guarantee, the Pledge Agreement and the Security Agreement in order to become a Guarantor under the Guarantee and a grantor under such Security Documents or, to the extent reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, enter into a new Security Document substantially consistent with the analogous existing Security Documents and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Collateral Agent and take all other action reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to grant a perfected security interest in its assets to substantially the same extent as created by the Credit Parties on the Original Closing Date (including, without limitation, in the case of a Foreign Subsidiary causing such Foreign Subsidiary to execute guarantees and security agreements compatible with the laws of such Foreign Subsidiary’s jurisdiction in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent). Notwithstanding anything in any Credit Document to the contrary, as of the 2014 July Repricing Effective Date: (i) FDR Limited, Money Network Financial, LLC and TeleCheck Services, Inc. are each released as Guarantors under the Credit Documents, (ii) FDR Limited shall be deemed a Foreign Subsidiary for purposes of any requirement relating to the pledge of Equity Interests in FDR Limited and (iii) unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent otherwise prior to the time such release would apply, any Guarantor shall be automatically cease to be a Guarantor under the Credit Documents and in such capacity will be automatically released from the Guarantees (and for the avoidance of doubt each other Security Document) to the extent such Guarantor ceases to be a wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower and the value of such Guarantor at such time (when aggregated with the value (at the time of release) of all prior Guarantors that have ceased to be Guarantors pursuant to this clause (iii)), does not exceed (a) 10% of Consolidated EBITDA as of the most recently ended Test Period plus (b) the amount of Investments that would be permitted to be made pursuant to Section 10.5 (other than clause (g)(i)(c) thereto) with respect to such Subsidiary (as such Subsidiary exists after ceasing to be a Guarantor), it being understood such usage shall reduce the amounts that would otherwise available for such Investments. It is understood and agreed that this paragraph does not authorize the release of all or substantially all of the Guarantors under the Guarantees or the release of all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Security Documents.

Credit Union Lien and Security Interest To the extent you owe the Credit Union money as a borrower, guarantor, indorser or otherwise, the Credit Union has a lien on any or all of the funds in any account in which you have an ownership interest at the Credit Union, regardless of the source of the funds. The Credit Union may apply these funds in any order to pay off your indebtedness without further notice to you. If the Credit Union chooses not to enforce its lien, the Credit Union does not waive its right to enforce the lien at a later time. In addition, you grant the Credit Union a consensual security interest in your accounts and agree the Credit Union may use the funds from your accounts to pay any debt or amount owed the Credit Union, except obligations secured by your dwelling, unless prohibited by applicable law. All accounts are nonassignable and nontransferable to third parties.

(b) Such Obligor will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall reasonably be requested by the Lender to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Obligor will, and will cause each Person that is required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor to, take such action from time to time (including executing and delivering such assignments, security agreements, control agreements and other instruments) as shall be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to create, in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, perfected security interests and Liens in substantially all of the personal property of such Obligor and its Subsidiaries as collateral security for the Obligations; provided that any such security interest or Lien shall be subject to the relevant requirements of the Security Documents.
