(c) Disclosure. No (i) representation or warranty of the Borrower or
----------
any Subsidiary to the Banks contained in this Agreement, the other Credit
Documents, or any other document, certificate, or written statement
furnished to the Banks by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
Seventh Amendment (including the warrant agreement executed in connection
therewith but excluding the AA Review and the Kagan Study), when taken as a
whole, (ii) statement contained in the PPM, when taken as a whole, except
that the representations and warranties contained in this clause (ii) shall
not apply to statements in or omissions from the PPM made in reliance upon
and in conformity with information relating to the Banks furnished to the
Borrower in writing by the Banks expressly for use therein, or (iii)
statement contained in any filing made by the Borrower with the SEC on or
after April 30, 1998, taking each such SEC filing as a whole, in each case
contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact (known to any such Person in the case of any document not
furnished by it) necessary in order to make the statements contained herein
or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same
were made. The financial projections that have been delivered to the Banks
as part of the PPM were prepared in good faith, there is a reasonable basis
for such projections, and such projections represent the Borrower's good
faith best estimates of its and its Subsidiaries' future performance.
(d) Debt Instruments. Schedule XIX attached hereto contains a
-----------------
complete list of all loan agreements, promissory notes, letters of credit,
security agreements, or other financing documents (other than trade
accounts payable) to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a
party as the debtor, account party, guarantor, or co-obligor, as the case
may be, or by which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their
assets (including equipment subject to any equipment lease), is bound, in
each case, in respect of amounts owing of $250,000, or more, together with
a description of the salient terms thereof. True and complete copies of
each such agreement, document or instrument, as amended and as in effect on
the Seventh Amendment Effective Date, have been delivered to the Banks
making C Term Loans on the C Term Loan Borrowing Date on or before the
Seventh Amendment Effective Date. After giving effect to the Seventh
Amendment, there are no existing defaults by the Borrower or its
Subsidiaries under or with respect to any such debt instrument set forth on
Schedule XIX and no event has occurred with respect thereto which (whether
with notice, lapse of time, or both, or the happening or occurrence of any
other event) would constitute a default by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries
under or with respect to any such debt instrument.
(e) Revenue-Sharing Agreements. The Borrower has entered into
--------------------------
revenue-sharing agreements (the "Revenue-Sharing Agreements") with various
motion picture production companies, studios, or distribution Affiliates
thereof, as previously described to the Banks. Any written information
previously delivered
E-108
by the Borrower to the Banks with respect thereto is accurate in all
material respects. With respect to each such Revenue-Sharing Agreement, (i)
it is valid, legally binding and enforceable against the Borrower and, to
the Borrower's knowledge, each other party thereto, in accordance with its
terms, (ii) neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor, to the
Borrower's knowledge, any other party to such Revenue-Sharing Agreement, is
in material breach thereof or material default thereunder, (iii) there does
not exist any event that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or
both, would constitute a material breach of or a material default under
such Revenue-Sharing Agreement, and (iv) neither the Borrower nor any of
its Subsidiaries has received or given notice of any such breach, default
or event. To the Borrower's knowledge, after due inquiry, except as
otherwise specifically disclosed in any written information previously
delivered by the Borrower to the Banks with respect to the Revenue-Sharing
Agreements, each Revenue-Sharing Agreement contains terms that, taken as a
whole, are not materially less favorable to the Borrower than the
respective revenue-sharing agreements currently in effect between such
motion picture productions companies, studios, or distribution Affiliates
thereof, on the one hand, and either Blockbuster Inc. or Hollywood
Entertainment Corp., on the other.
(f) Rentrak Agreement. Prior to the Seventh Amendment Effective
-----------------
Date, the Borrower provided to the Agent a complete and accurate copy of
the agreement between Rentrak Corporation ("Rentrak"), the Borrower and
Moovies entered into in or about March 1998 with respect to the resolution
of the liabilities of Moovies to Rentrak in connection with the Merger.
There are no other agreements with respect to such liabilities that have
not been provided to the Agent. The Borrower has disclosed to the Agent
and the Banks the pending litigation between the Borrower and Rentrak,
including the counter-claims made therein, the Borrower has asserted and
believes that all amounts due from Moovies or the Borrower or any
Subsidiary pursuant to such agreement or otherwise have been paid in full,
and there are no further amounts due from Moovies or the Borrower or any
Subsidiary to Rentrak. Since the consummation of the Merger, neither the
Borrower nor its Subsidiaries have purchased, leased or otherwise acquired
any products or services from, or in any other way engaged in any material
transaction with, Rentrak.
(g) Accounts Payable. Subject to the disclosures concerning
----------------
litigation and disputes of claims therein, the accounts payable aging
schedules of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries provided to the Agent and
the Banks prior to the Seventh Amendment Effective Date are complete and
accurate in all material respects and accurately set forth the information
purported to be contained therein concerning the respective amounts of the
Borrower's and its Subsidiaries' consolidated accounts payable due for the
periods indicated. As of May 31, 1999, except as set forth on Schedule XX,
the Borrower's and its Subsidiaries' consolidated accounts payable did not
exceed $27,250,000, which amount includes less than $500,000 owed to Xxxxxx
and does not include any amounts due under the Xxxxxx Note.
E-109
The accounts payable shown on the Borrower's and its Subsidiaries'
consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 1999, February 28, 1999, and
March 31, 1999, and on the accounts payable aging schedule as of May 31,
1999 provided to the Agent and the Banks include all amounts claimed by
Sight & Sound to have been owed by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to
Sight & Sound as of such respective dates, without deduction or offset for
any cooperative advertising, rebates or volume discounts claimed by the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and such amount included in the accounts
payable on such aging schedule is $7,504,000. The Borrower and its
Subsidiaries have asserted and currently believe are entitled to no less
than $3,000,000 in cooperative advertising funds, rebates and volume
discounts from Sight & Sound offsetting such account payable.
