The Credits
SECTION 2.01    Commitments and Loans.
(a)[Reserved].
(b)New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans.    During the New Money DDTL Commitment Period, subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender having a Commitment severally agrees to make term loans (each, a “New Money Delayed Draw Term Loan”) to the Borrower on each New Money DDTL Funding Date in an amount not to exceed to such Xxxxxx’s Commitment on such date (or such lesser amount as may be requested by the Borrower). The Commitments shall terminate on the earliest of (i) the Termination Date, (ii) with respect to the applicable Commitment, the date such Commitment is terminated pursuant to Section 7.01 and (iii) with respect to any applicable portion of the Commitment, the date that the Borrower borrows New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans with respect to such Commitment (such earliest date, the “New Money DDTL Termination Date”). On the Closing Date, the Borrower shall make an initial Borrowing of New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to $12,250,000 (the “Interim New Money Delayed Draw Term Loan”). On the Final Order Entry Date, the Borrower shall make an additional Borrowing of New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to $15,150,000 (the “Final New Money Delayed Draw Term Loan”). At any time on or after the Severance Order Entry Date, and prior to the New Money DDTL Termination Date, the Borrower may make one or more additional Borrowings of New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed the lesser of (x) the amount of severance payments due and payable and approved by the Severance Approval Order and (y) $4,200,000(each, a “Severance New Money Delayed Draw Term Loan”); provided, that the aggregate amount of New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans that may be made prior to the New Money DDTL Termination Date shall not exceed $31,600,000. Any New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans (if and when funded) shall have the same terms as and shall be treated as a single class with all other New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans funded prior thereto for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except that interest on any New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans shall commence to accrue from the date of funding thereof. Amounts prepaid or repaid in respect of the New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans may not be reborrowed. For the avoidance of doubt, the maximum principal amount of New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans that can be made pursuant to this Section 2.01(b) is $31,600,000.
(c)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in consideration for providing the New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans, subject to entry of the Interim Order, on the Interim Order Entry Date, Indebtedness under the Pre-Petition Bridge Note in the


aggregate principal amount of $10,900,000 held by Pre-Petition Holders (after giving effect to, and assuming the settlement of, any pending assignments of such Pre-Petition Notes on the Interim Order Entry Date) shall be automatically substituted and exchanged for (on a cashless basis by) loans hereunder (the “Interim Roll-Up Loans”), which Interim Roll-Up Loans shall constitute and be deemed Loans outstanding hereunder on the Closing Date (the “Interim Roll-Up Date”)) (the foregoing substitution and exchange of Pre-Petition Notes into Interim Roll-Up Loans shall be referred to herein, generally, as the “Interim Roll-Up”). Amounts borrowed, deemed borrowed or exchanged under this Section 2.01(c) and, following the Interim Roll-Up, repaid or prepaid, may not be reborrowed.
(d)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in consideration for providing the New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans, subject to entry of the Final Order, on the Final Order Entry Date, Indebtedness under the Pre-Petition February 2023 Note, the Pre-Petition January 2023 Note, and the Pre-Petition December 2022 Note and certain Indebtedness under the Pre-Petition November 2022 Note in the aggregate principal amount of $31,600,000 held by Pre-Petition Holders (after giving effect to, and assuming the settlement of, any pending assignments of such Pre-Petition Notes on the Final Order Entry Date) shall be automatically substituted and exchanged for (on a cashless basis by) loans hereunder (the “Final Roll-Up Loans” and, together with the Interim Roll-Up Loans, the “Roll-Up Loans”), which Final Roll-Up Loans shall constitute and be deemed Loans outstanding hereunder on the Final Order Entry Date (the “Final Roll-Up Date”) (the foregoing substitution and exchange of Pre-Petition Notes into Roll-Up Loans shall be referred to herein, generally, as the “Final Roll-Up” and, together with the Interim Roll-Up, the “Roll-Up”). Amounts borrowed, deemed borrowed or exchanged under this Section 2.01(c) and, following the Roll-Up, repaid or prepaid, may not be reborrowed.
(e)The outstanding principal amount of the Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other accrued amounts in respect thereof, shall be due and payable on the Termination Date.
SECTION 2.02    Notice of Borrowing To request the borrowing of the Loans on a New Money DDTL Funding Date, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice prior to (a) with respect to the Interim New Money Delayed Draw Term Loan, 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date of the proposed borrowing, (b) with respect to the Final New Money Delayed Draw Term Loan requested thereafter, 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed borrowing and (c) with respect to any Severance New Money Delayed Draw Term Loan requested thereafter, 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed borrowing. Such notice (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be revocable if any of the conditions in Section 4.01 or 4.02 that are not reasonably within the control of the Borrower are not satisfied or waived. Such Notice of Borrowing shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made, (ii) the proposed date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) that the proceeds of the Loans shall be disbursed directly into the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit F. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender written notice (which may be given by email) of the proposed borrowing of Loans, of such Xxxxxx’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters covered by the related Notice of Borrowing.
SECTION 2.03    Disbursement of Funds.
(a)Subject to Article IV, no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a New Money DDTL Funding Date, each Lender will make available its pro rata portion based on its Commitment of the Loans to be made on such date in the manner provided below.
(b)Each Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the Borrower in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the office or account from time to


time designated by the Administrative Agent to be the account of the Administrative Agent used for such purpose, and, upon receipt of all requested funds (unless the Borrower agrees otherwise), subject to the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 4.01 or 4.02, as applicable, or the waiver thereof in accordance with Section 9.01, the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate of the amounts so made available in U.S. Dollars. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable New Money DDTL Funding Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Loans to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Xxxxxx has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Xxxxxx and the Administrative Agent has made available same to the Borrower, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the greater of (A) the Federal Funds Rate and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the then-applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.08, for the respective Loans. To the extent any Lender fails to fund the Administrative Agent by the time set forth above, the Administrative Agent may make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of the funds that have actually been made available to it (which amount shall bear interest from the date specified in the applicable notice of Borrowing (notwithstanding the obligation of any such Lender to reimburse the Borrower any account of any delay in funding)). The Administrative Agent shall have no liability for any action taken pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.
(c)Nothing in this Section 2.03 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Xxxxxx xxxxxxxxx (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder).
(d)The New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be made available to the Borrower by depositing the proceeds thereof into the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account.
SECTION 2.04    [Reserved].
SECTION 2.05    Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(d)The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 2.05 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be conclusive absent manifest error of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loan made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that in the event of any conflict between the accounts maintained by any Xxxxxx and those maintained by the Administrative Agent, the accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent shall control, absent manifest error.
(e)Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B or otherwise reasonably acceptable to such Lender.
SECTION 2.06    Asset Sale; Debt Incurrence.

(ii)[Reserved].

(i)Subject to Section 2.06(c)(ii), on each occasion that a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event occurs, the Borrower shall, within one Business Day after the receipt of Net Proceeds therefrom, prepay, in accordance with Section 2.06(b)(ii) below, a principal amount of Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds from such Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event.
(ii)Subject to Section 2.06(c)(i), each prepayment of Loans required by this Section 2.06(b) in connection with a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event shall be


applied pro rata to all Lenders, based upon the outstanding principal amounts owing to each such Lender under all Loans then outstanding.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) at any time (x) prior to the Discharge of New Money DDTL Obligations, the Borrower shall apply all such Net Proceeds to prepay, repay or repurchase New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans and (y) following the Discharge of New Money DDTL Obligations, the Borrower shall apply such Net Proceeds to prepay, repay or repurchase Roll-Up Loans and (ii) no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.06 to the extent that such prepayment would violate applicable Requirements of Law.
(d)All prepayments under this Section 2.06 shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon.
(e)The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.06 at least one Business Day prior to such prepayment. Each such notice shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment.

(c)At any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all Loan Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto plus 4.00% from and including the date of such Event of Default to but excluding the date on which such amount is paid (or satisfied) in full (after as well as before judgment).
(d)Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date on which such Loan is made to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable (i) on each Interest Payment Date (x) in cash with respect to the New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans and the Interim Roll-Up Loans and (y) in kind with respect to the Final Roll-Up Loans, and (ii) on any prepayment (on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand, in cash.
(e)All computations of interest hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
SECTION 2.09    [Reserved].


SECTION 2.10    Increased Costs, etc.
(a)In the event that a Change in Law occurring at any time after the Closing shall subject any Lender to any Tax (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnifiable under Section 2.17, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (ii)-(iv) of Excluded Taxes or (iii) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(b)If, after the Closing Date, any Change in Law relating to capital adequacy of any Lender or compliance by any Lender or its parent with any Change in Law relating to capital adequacy occurring after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy),
Then from time to time, promptly (but in any event no later than ten days) after written demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent for such reduction or increase in Tax, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any applicable Requirement of Law as in effect on the Closing Date. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10, will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, although the failure to give any such notice shall not, subject to Section 2.13, release or diminish the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10 upon receipt of such notice.

Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Section 2.10 or 2.17.
SECTION 2.13    Notice of Certain Costs. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any notice required by Section 2.10 or 2.17 is given by any Lender more than 180 days after such Lender has knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or other additional amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation under Section 2.10 or 2.17 as the case may be, for any such amounts incurred or accruing prior to the 181st day prior to the giving of such notice to the Borrower; provided that if a Change in Law that gives rise to such additional amounts is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Each such notice shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment made under Section 2.14(a) by notice to the Administrative Agent a reasonable time prior to the specified effective time of such prepayment if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of all or any portion of the Loans, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed.

As consideration for Lenders making available the Interim New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans hereunder, the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, pro rata in accordance with their Commitment to provide the Interim New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans, on the Closing Date, an initial funding fee (the “Initial Funding Fee”) in an aggregate amount equal to three percent (3.00%) of the Commitments to provide Interim New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans (prior to giving effect to the making of such Interim New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans on the Closing Date). The entire amount of the Initial Funding Fee shall be fully earned, and shall be due and payable in full, on the Closing Date.

The entire amount of the Subsequent Funding Fee shall be fully earned, and shall be due and payable in full, on each such New Money DDTL Funding Date.
SECTION 2.16    Method and Place of Payment.

(b)Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) may, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.
SECTION 2.17    Net Payments.
(a)Any and all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes; provided that if any applicable Withholding Agent shall determine (in such Withholding Agent’s good faith discretion) that it is or may be required by applicable Requirements of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent may make such deductions or withholdings as are determined by the applicable Withholding Agent in such Withholding Agent’s good faith discretion to be required by any applicable Requirement of Law, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, and (iii) to the extent withholding or deduction is required to be made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower or such Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions and withholdings have been made (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. After any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party or the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 2.17, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, as the case may


be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by law to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lenders, as the case may be.
(b)The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes (whether or not such Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority).

(d)Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not any payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of any payments to be made to such Lender by any Credit Party pursuant to any Loan Document or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than as required pursuant to Section 2.17(e)(i)(A), (B) or (C)), shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(e)Without limiting the generality of Section 2.17(d), each Non-U.S. Lender with respect to any Loan made to the Borrower shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so:
(i)deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement, two copies of (A) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any applicable successor form) (together with a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1, Exhibit D-2, Exhibit D-3 or Exhibit D-4 hereto, as applicable (a “Non-Bank Tax Certificate”), representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not a “10 percent shareholder” (within the meaning

(ii)deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of any such form or certification (or any applicable successor form) promptly after such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete or invalid, after the occurrence of any event requiring a material change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such Non-U.S. Xxxxxx’s inability to do so.
Each Person that shall become a Participant pursuant to Section 9.06 or a Lender pursuant to Section 9.06 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section 2.17(e); provided that in the case of a Participant such Participant shall furnish all such required forms and statements to the Person from which the related participation shall have been purchased.

In addition, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, each Agent shall deliver to the Borrower (x)(I) prior to the date on which the first payment by the Borrower is due hereunder or (II) prior to the first date on or after the date on which such Agent becomes a successor Agent pursuant to Section 8.09 on which payment by the Borrower is due hereunder, as applicable, two copies of a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 certifying its exemption from U.S. Federal backup withholding or a properly completed and executed applicable IRS Form W-8 certifying its non-U.S. status and its entitlement to any applicable treaty benefits, and (y) on or before the date on which any such previously delivered documentation expires or becomes obsolete or invalid, after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent documentation previously delivered by it to the Borrower, and from time to time if reasonably requested by the Borrower, two further copies of such documentation.

(f)If any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax for which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), then the Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the


Borrower or such Guarantor for such amount (net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and without interest other than any interest received thereon from the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund) as the Lender, Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith to be the proportion of the refund as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no worse net after-Tax position (taking into account expenses or any Taxes imposed on the refund) than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld, or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid; provided that the Borrower or such Guarantor, upon the request of the Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower or such Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in the event the Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. In such event, such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant Governmental Authority (provided that such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may delete any information therein that it deems confidential). None of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be obliged to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Credit Party in connection with this clause (f) or any other provision of this Section 2.17.
(g)[Reserved].
(h)Without limiting the generality of Section 2.17(d), each U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of an IRS Form W-9 (or substitute or successor form), properly completed and duly executed, certifying that such U.S. Lender is exempt from United States federal backup withholding (i) on or prior to the Closing Date (or on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement), (ii) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or invalid, (iii) after the occurrence of a change in the U.S. Xxxxxx’s circumstances requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and (iv) from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent.
(i)If a payment made to any Lender or any Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or such Agent were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender or such Agent shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Xxxxxx’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(i), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(j)For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “applicable law” or “Requirements of Law” includes FATCA.


(k)The agreements in this Section 2.17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
SECTION 2.18    Limit on Rate of Interest.
(a)No Payment Shall Exceed Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obliged to pay any interest or other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement in excess of the amount or rate permitted under or consistent with any applicable law, rule or regulation.
(b)Payment at Highest Lawful Rate. If the Borrower is not obliged to make a payment which it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of Section 2.18(a), the Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.
(c)Adjustment if Any Payment Exceeds Lawful Rate. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents would obligate the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by any applicable law, rule or regulation, then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower to the affected Lender under Section 2.08.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from the Borrower an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to the Borrower.
SECTION 2.19    Pro Rata Sharing. Except as expressly set forth herein, whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement is insufficient to pay in full all amounts then due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the following order: first, to the payment of fees and expenses due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and its Affiliates under and in connection with this Agreement, except any amounts payable to any such Person in its role as Xxxxxx, as provided in clause “second” of this Section 2.19; second, to the payment of all expenses due and payable under Section 9.05, ratably among the Lenders in accordance with the aggregate amount of such payments owed to each Lender; third, to the payment of interest and amounts under Sections 2.10 and 2.17, if any, then due and payable on the New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans and the Interim Roll-Up Loans ratably among the Lenders holding such Loans in accordance with the aggregate amount of interest owed to each such Lender; fourth, to the payment of the principal amount of the New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans and the Interim Roll-Up Loans that is then due and payable, ratably among the Lenders holding such Loans in accordance with the aggregate principal amount owed to each such Lender; fifth, to the payment of interest and amounts under Sections 2.10 and 2.17, if any, then due and payable on the Final Roll-Up Loans ratably among the Lenders holding such Loans in accordance with the aggregate amount of interest owed to each such Lender; sixth, to the payment of the principal amount of the Final Roll-Up that is then due and payable, ratably among the Lenders holding such Loans in accordance with the aggregate principal amount owed to each such Lender.
SECTION 2.20    [Reserved].


SECTION 2.21    Adjustments; Set-off.
(a)If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender entitled to such payment, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase for cash at face value participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders entitled thereto ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (a) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
(b)Subject to the last paragraph of Section 7.01, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by the Orders and applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Credit Party. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

SECTION 6.13    Existence; Business and Properties. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to:
(a)Do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence except, in the case of any Subsidiary, except as otherwise permitted by Article V or Article VI.
(b)Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) do or cause to be done all things necessary to obtain, preserve, renew, extend and keep in full force and effect the permits, franchises, authorizations, intellectual property, licenses and rights with respect thereto necessary to the normal conduct of its business and (ii) at all times maintain and preserve all material property necessary to the normal conduct of its business and keep such property in good repair, working order and condition.
SECTION 6.14    Maintenance of Insurance.
(a)The Borrower shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to (i) maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance (subject to customary deductibles and retentions) in such amounts and against such risks as are customarily maintained by similarly situated companies engaged in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations and (ii) cause the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors to be listed as insured and the Collateral Agent to be listed as co-loss payee on property and property casualty policies and as an additional insured on liability policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the insurance maintained by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date, as evidenced by the insurance certificates and endorsements set forth in Schedule 6.14, shall be deemed to satisfy the obligations of the Borrower under clause (i) of this Section 6.14, so long as and to the extent such insurance remains in full force and effect.
(b)[Reserved].
(c)In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 6.14, it is understood and agreed that:
(i)none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective agents or employees shall be liable for any loss or damage insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 6.14, it being understood that (A) the Credit Parties shall look solely to their insurance companies or any other parties other than the aforesaid parties for the recovery of such loss or damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their agents or employees. If, however, the insurance policies, as a matter of the internal policy of such insurer, do not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then the Borrower, on behalf of itself and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries, hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to waive, and further agrees to cause each of its Subsidiaries to waive, its right of recovery, if any, against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their agents and employees; and
(ii)the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the Administrative Agent under this Section 6.14 shall in no event be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders that such insurance is adequate for the purposes of the business of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries or the protection of their properties.
SECTION 6.15    Payment of Taxes, etc. In accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and subject to any required approval by the Bankruptcy Court (it being understood that no Debtor shall be


obligated to make any payments hereunder that may, in its reasonable judgment, result in a violation of any applicable law, including the Bankruptcy Code, without an order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing such payments), the Borrower shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to, pay, discharge or otherwise satisfy its obligations in respect of all Tax liabilities, assessments and governmental charges, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, except where (i) the amount or validity thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof has set aside on its books adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP or (ii)  the failure to make payment could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 6.16    Compliance with Laws. Except as otherwise excused or prohibited by the Bankruptcy Code, and subject to any required approval by the Bankruptcy Court, the Borrower shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to, comply with all laws, rules, regulations and judgments, writs, injunctions, decrees and orders of any Governmental Authority, whether now in effect or hereafter enacted, applicable to it or its property (including without limitation the USA Patriot Act and any Environmental Law), except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; provided that this Section 6.16 shall not apply to laws related to Taxes, which are the subject of Section 6.15.
SECTION 6.17    After-Acquired Property. For the avoidance of doubt, upon the acquisition by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any after-acquired property (other than Excluded Assets), or upon any additional Subsidiary becoming a Subsidiary that has after-acquired property (other than Excluded Assets), such property shall be Collateral secured by valid, binding, continuing, enforceable, fully-perfected first-priority senior Liens under Section 6.12 pursuant to the Orders, as applicable.
SECTION 6.18    Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if granting a security interest in any property pursuant to the foregoing paragraph requires the consent of a third party, the Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent with respect to such security interest for the benefit of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties.
SECTION 6.19    ERISA. Promptly after the Borrower knows or has reason to know of the occurrence of an ERISA Event that, individually or in the aggregate (including in the aggregate such events previously disclosed or exempt from disclosure hereunder, to the extent the liability therefor remains outstanding), would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer or any other senior officer of the Borrower setting forth details as to such occurrence and the action, if any, that the Borrower or such ERISA Affiliate is required or proposes to take, together with any notices (required, proposed or otherwise) given to or filed with or by the Borrower, such ERISA Affiliate, the PBGC, a Plan participant (other than notices relating to an individual participant’s benefits) or the Plan administrator with respect thereto. Promptly following any request therefor, the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent copies of (i) any documents described in Section 101(k) of ERISA that the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries may request with respect to any Multiemployer Plan and (ii) any notices described in Section 101(l) of ERISA that the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries may request with respect to any Multiemployer Plan; provided that if the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has not requested such documents or notices from the administrator or sponsor of the applicable Multiemployer Plan, the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiaries shall promptly make a request for such documents or notices from such administrator or sponsor and shall provide copies of such documents and notices promptly after receipt thereof.


SECTION 6.20    Budget Variance. With respect to any Variance Test Period, the Credit Parties shall not permit (in each case tested on the date on which the Borrower delivers a Variance Report pursuant to Section 6.01(j)) the positive variance (as compared to the Approved Budget) of aggregate operating disbursements (excluding Other Disbursements) made by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for such Variance Test Period to exceed 15.0%. The permitted variances set forth in this Section 6.20 shall be referred to herein as the “Permitted Variances”.

The Borrower shall upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, on a date to be mutually agreed upon by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders following the end of each fiscal year, the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year and the end of each of the first two months of each fiscal quarter, in each case of Borrower (but, in any event, no earlier than the Business Day following the delivery of annual, quarterly or monthly financial statements, as applicable, pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or (b), for such fiscal year, fiscal quarter or month, as the case may be), to participate in a conference call with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to discuss the financial condition and results of operations of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal quarter or month (and for the period from the beginning of the current fiscal year to the end of such fiscal quarter or month) or for such fiscal year, as the case may be.
SECTION 6.22    Books, Records and Inspections.
(a)The Borrower will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, permit officers and designated representatives of the Administrative Agent or officers and designated representatives of the Required Lenders (as accompanied by the Administrative Agent), to visit and inspect any of the properties or assets of the Borrower or such Subsidiary in whomsoever’s possession to the extent that it is within such party’s control to permit such inspection (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such inspection to be permitted to the extent that it is not within such party’s control to permit such inspection), and to examine the financial records of the Borrower and any such Subsidiary and discuss the affairs, finances, accounts and condition of the Borrower or any such Subsidiary with its and their officers and independent accountants therefor, in each case of the foregoing upon reasonable advance notice to the Borrower, all at such reasonable times and intervals during normal business hours and to such reasonable extent as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may desire (and subject, in the case of any such meetings or advice from such independent accountants, to such accountants’ customary policies and procedures). The Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders shall give the Borrower the opportunity to participate in any discussions with the Borrower’s independent public accountants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.22, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary will be required to disclose, permit the inspection, examination or making copies or abstracts of, or discussion of, any document, information or other matter (i) that constitutes non-financial trade secrets or non-financial proprietary information, (ii) in respect of which disclosure to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or their respective representatives or contractors) is prohibited by any Requirement of Law or any binding agreement or (iii) that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege or constitutes attorney work product.
(b)The Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiaries to, maintain financial records in accordance with GAAP.
SECTION 6.23    Limitations on Amendments. The Borrower will not amend or modify any Junior Indebtedness or any documentation governing the Pre-Petition Notes or its organizational documents, except to the extent that any such amendment or modification is not adverse to the interests of the Lenders.
SECTION 6.24    DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account.


(a)The Borrower shall, from and after the Closing Date, (i) establish and maintain the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account, (ii) enter into a blocked account agreement or similar control agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (the “Blocked Account Agreement”) with the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the financial institution with which the Borrower maintains the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account and (iii) deposit (or cause to be deposited) and hold all proceeds of the New Money Delayed Draw Term Loans into the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account on the Business Day on which such proceeds are received by the Borrower or any other Credit Party. From and after the Closing Date, the Borrower shall ensure that this Section 5.15(a) is satisfied at all times (subject to Section 5.15(c)). Unless an Event of Default (other than to fund the Carve Out Reserve, as defined in the Orders) has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may withdraw funds from the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account; provided that the Borrower shall apply such funds (or cause such funds to be applied) in accordance with the then current Approved Budget (subject only to Permitted Variances).
(b)The Blocked Account Agreement relating to the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account shall require that, subject to the Orders (including the Remedies Notice Period as defined therein), following (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default and (ii) the delivery of notice of springing control by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower and the other parties to the Blocked Account Agreement (which the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, provide upon its becoming aware of such Event of Default) (an “Acceleration Period”), the Administrative Agent may (or upon the request of the Required Lenders shall) instruct the financial institution with which the Borrower maintains the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account to transfer, by ACH or wire transfer no less frequently than once per Business Day, all available cash balances, cash receipts and Cash Equivalents to an account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent Account”). All amounts received in the Administrative Agent Account shall be applied (and allocated) by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 7.02). In such event, the Borrower and each other Credit Party agrees that it will not otherwise direct the proceeds of the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account.
(c)The Administrative Agent Account shall at all times be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent. Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) such Credit Party has no right of withdrawal from the Administrative Agent Account, (ii) the funds on deposit in the Administrative Agent Account shall at all times continue to be collateral security for all of the applicable Loan Obligations, and (iii) the funds on deposit in the Administrative Agent Account shall be applied as provided in Section 7.02. In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.24, any Credit Party receives or otherwise has dominion and/or control of any amount required to be transferred to the Administrative Agent Account pursuant to Section 6.24(b), such amount shall be held in trust by such Credit Party for the Administrative Agent, and shall promptly be deposited into the Administrative Agent Account or otherwise transferred in such manner as the Administrative Agent may request. Any amount held or received in the Administrative Agent Account (including all interest and other earnings with respect thereto, if any) at any time that all Events of Default have been cured and no Acceleration Period exists, shall be remitted to the DIP Term Loan Proceeds Account.

Documents by or through agents, sub-agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Subagent”) and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties; provided that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative Agent. If any Subagent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Subagent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Subagent.

No Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement, the Orders or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders or any participant for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any of the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement, the Orders or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by such Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Borrower or any other Credit Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder or (c) subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties; regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 8.04    Reliance by Agents. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or instruction believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may deem and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement, the Orders or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement, the Orders and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, including in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, instructions from legal counsel to the Required Lenders (which as of the Closing Date, is Xxxxx Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans; provided that the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or in the opinion of its counsel, may expose it to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirements of Law. The Agents shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate,


consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent, or otherwise authenticated by a proper person. The Agents may also rely upon any statement made to it orally and believed by it to have been made by a proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Agents may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Required Lenders), independent accountants and other advisors selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or advisors.
SECTION 8.05    Notice of Default. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall give notice thereof to the Lenders and the Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement requires that such action be taken only with the approval of the Required Lenders or each individual Lender, as applicable.
SECTION 8.06    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and each other Credit Party and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and any other Credit Party. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets, operations, properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Credit Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. The Agents shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in


any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document. Whenever in the administration of this Agreement, or pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, the Agents shall deem it necessary or desirable (in each case, in its sole discretion) that a matter be proved or established with respect to Borrower or the Guarantors in connection with the taking, suffering or omitting of any action hereunder by the, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively provided or established by an Officers’ Certificate and such certificate shall be full warranty to such Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted in reliance thereon. In no event shall the Agents be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, future changes in applicable law or regulation, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Agents shall use reasonable efforts consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.
SECTION 8.07    Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (each in its capacity as such) and their respective Related Parties (acting in their capacity as Related Parties to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent acting in their capacity as such) (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party and without limiting the obligation of any Credit Party to do so), ratably according to their respective portions of the Commitments or Loans, as applicable, outstanding in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the Loans in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Loans) occur, be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or any of their Related Parties for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s or Related Party’s, as applicable, gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 8.07. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time occur (including at any time following the payment of the Loans), this Section 8.07 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any fees, costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice rendered in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders shall not affect the Borrower’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. If any indemnity furnished to


any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Xxxxxx’s pro rata portion thereof; and provided, further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, as determined in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 8.07 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder, or the earlier resignation or removal of the Agents.
SECTION 8.08    Agents in Their Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and any other Credit Party as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.
SECTION 8.09    Successor Agents. Each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) or (b) is continuing, to appoint a successor. If, in the case of a resignation of a retiring Agent, no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Xxxxxxx and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the retiring Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except in the case of the Collateral Agent holding collateral security on behalf of any Secured Parties, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section 8.09. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder, and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Orders and/or the Security Documents, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower (following the effectiveness of such appointment) to such Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article VIII (including Section 8.07) and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its Subagents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as an Agent.
SECTION 8.10    Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment


or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Loan Obligations and the termination of this Agreement, or the earlier resignation or removal of the Agents.
SECTION 8.11    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Loan Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 9.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding and (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 9.05. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Loan Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or in any such proceeding.
The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Loan Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Loan Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which any Credit Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law.  In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Loan Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Loan Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim


amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase).  In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders otherwise contained in this Agreement, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign the relevant Loan Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Lenders, as a result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have received a pro rata portion of any equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account of the assignment of the Loan Obligations to be credit bid, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action (and without regard to the limitations on assignments set forth herein), and (iv) to the extent that Loan Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Loan Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Loan Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Loan Obligations that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Loan Obligations, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article.
SECTION 8.12    Collateral Matters.(a) The Lenders and all other Secured Parties (by accepting the benefit of the Collateral) irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion or in accordance with the instructions and Officers’ Certificates delivered to the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon payment in full of all Loan Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and expense reimbursement claims to the extent no claim therefor has been made), (ii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 9.01, (iii) pursuant to the Orders and/or the Security Documents or (iv) pursuant to Section 9.19. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property in accordance with this Section; provided that the Collateral Agent shall rely conclusively on Officers’ Certificates and instructions delivered by the Borrower or any other Credit Party in connection herewith.
(b)    Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the Secured Parties with respect to the Orders and/or the Security Documents. Subject to Section 9.01, without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, may (a) execute any documents or instruments necessary in connection with a disposition of assets to a Person that is not the Borrower or any Subsidiary permitted by this Agreement, (b) release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of such disposition of assets to a Person that is not the Borrower or any Subsidiary or with respect to which Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 9.01) have otherwise consented or (c) release any Guarantor from the Guarantee with respect to which Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 9.01) have otherwise consented.


(c)     The Agents shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall an Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral, including the filing of any UCC financing or continuation statements.

SECTION 8.13    Collateral Matters. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that VIL will be serving as Collateral Agent for the Secured Parties. Each Lender hereby consents to VIL and any successor serving in such capacities and agrees not to assert any claim (including as a result of any conflict of interest) against VIL, or any such successor, arising from the role of the Collateral Agent under the Security Documents so long as the Collateral Agent is either acting in accordance with the express terms of such documents or otherwise has not engaged in gross negligence or willful misconduct.
SECTION 8.14    Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Requirement of Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the IRS or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by any applicable Credit Party and without limiting the obligation of any applicable Credit Party to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties, additions to Tax and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.14.

SECTION 9.03    No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.
SECTION 9.04    Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans hereunder.
SECTION 9.05    Payment of Expenses; Indemnification. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Agents for all their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and execution and delivery of, and any amendment, waiver, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of outside legal counsel for the Lenders and the Agents (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other changes of Xxxxx Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, as primary outside legal counsel for the Lenders and the Agents) and the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of FTI Consulting, Inc., as financial advisor to the Lenders, (b) to pay or reimburse each Agent for all its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (unless there is an actual or perceived conflict of interest in which case each such Person may retain its own counsel), (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Agent from, any and all recording and filing fees and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Lender and Agent and their respective Related Parties from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent relating to any proceeding relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Transactions or any related transactions, whether or not such proceedings are brought by the Borrower, any of its Related Parties or any other third Person, including reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel for the Agents and their Related Parties (taken as a whole), and one primary counsel for the Lenders and their Related Parties (taken as a whole), and, if necessary, by a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for the Agents and their Related Parties (taken as a whole) and a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for the Lenders and their Related Parties (taken as a whole) (unless there is an actual or perceived conflict of interest in which case each such Person may retain its own counsel), with respect to the (i) execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents or (ii) any violation of, noncompliance with or liability under any Environmental Law or any actual or alleged presence, release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials, in each case, involving, attributable to, or otherwise relating to, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its property (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Agent


or any Lender or any of their respective Related Parties with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent (1) found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified or (ii) any material breach of any Loan Document by the party to be indemnified (other than a material breach by any Agent in its capacity as such unless such material breach resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Agent or its Related Parties) or (2) arising from disputes, claims, demands, actions, judgments or suits not arising from any act or omission by the Borrower or its Affiliates, brought by an indemnified Person against any other indemnified Person (other than disputes, claims, demands, actions, judgments or suits involving claims against any Agent in its capacity as such). No Person entitled to indemnification under clause (d) of this Section 9.05 shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through internet, electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems (including IntraLinks or SyndTrak Online) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent that such damages have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified or any of its Related Parties (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision), nor shall any such Person have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date). The agreements in this Section 9.05 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder, and the earlier resignation or removal of any Agent. This Section 9.05 shall not apply with respect to any Taxes other than Taxes that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever resulting from a non-Tax claim.
SECTION 9.06    Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.
(a)The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.06. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 9.06), and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
(b)(i)    Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below and the limitations on assignments set forth in paragraphs (e) and (g) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) by:
(A) providing written notice to the Borrower and, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, obtaining the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment of any Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and
(B) obtaining the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent


of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.
(ii)    Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A) [reserved];
(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;
(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance manually; and
(D) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form approved by the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Questionnaire”) and applicable tax forms (including those described in Sections 2.17(d), (e), (h) and (i), as applicable).
For the purposes of this Section 9.06(b), the term “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered, advised or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers, advises or manages a Lender.
At the Borrower’s reasonable request, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower a list of each assignment made during the immediately preceding month, which list shall include the applicable assignor, Assignee, the interest assigned and the date of each assignment. The delivery of such list shall satisfy the delivery requirement set forth in Section 9.06(b)(i)(A).
(iii)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 9.06, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.17 and 9.05). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.06 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 9.06.
(iv)    The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal and stated interest amounts of the Loans (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for


inspection by the Borrower, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v)    Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), all applicable tax forms, the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.06 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraphs (i)(A) and/or (i)(B) of this Section 9.06, the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment, whether or not evidenced by a promissory note, shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
(c)(i)    Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than to natural persons) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it), provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, provided that (x) such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (ii) or (iii) of the second sentence of Section 9.01(b) that directly affects such Participant and (y) no other agreement with respect to amendment, modification or waiver may exist between such Lender and such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 9.06, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10 and 2.17 (subject to the limitations and requirements of those Sections and Sections 2.12 and 9.07) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.06.
(ii)    Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal and stated interest amounts of each Participant’s interest in the Loans held by it (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each party hereto shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or other Loan Obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other Loan Obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.
(iii)    A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).


(d)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, and this Section 9.06 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In order to facilitate such pledge or assignment, the Borrower hereby agrees that, upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time, the Borrower shall provide to such Lender, at the Borrower’s own expense, a Note, substantially in the form of Exhibit B.
(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower.
SECTION 9.07    Replacements of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances.
(a)[Reserved].
(b)If any Lender requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.17 (other than Section 2.17(b)), then, provided that no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall, upon five (5) days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Lender, have the right to replace such Lender by deeming such Lender to have assigned its Loans and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that (1) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (2) all Loan Obligations (other than any disputed amounts pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.13 or 2.17, as the case may be) owing to such Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Lender concurrently with such assignment and the Borrower shall pay any premium that would have been due if the Loans were prepaid, and (3) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. No action by or consent of the replaced Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such replaced Xxxxxx and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.06 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein). Any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Xxxxxx.
(c)If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.01(b) requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then, provided that no Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to the proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination) then exists, the Borrower shall, upon five (5) days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Lender, have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by deeming such Non-Consenting Lender to have assigned its Loans and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that: (1) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (2) all Loan Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment and the Borrower shall pay any premium that would have been due if the Loans were prepaid, and (3) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting Lender


shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.06 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein).
SECTION 9.08    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 9.09    Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
