The Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are parties to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 8, 2020 (as amended, modified and supplemented and in effect from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"). The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Calculation Agent are parties to the Second Amended and Restated Margining Agreement dated as of January 8, 2020 referred to therein.
The Borrower has requested Xxxxxxx Sachs Bank USA, as sole Lender and Administrative Agent, to amend the Credit Agreement and the Margining Agreement in certain respects, all on and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
Accordingly, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Definitions. Except as otherwise defined in this Amendment, terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as defined therein. This Amendment shall constitute a Transaction Document for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
Section 2. Transaction Modifications. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in Section 5 below and Section 11.5 of the Credit Agreement, but effective as of the date hereof, the Credit Agreement shall be modified as follows:
2.01. References Generally. References in the Credit Agreement (including references to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby) to "this Agreement" (and indirect references such as "hereunder", "hereby", "herein" and "hereof") shall be deemed to be references to the Credit Agreement as modified hereby.
2.02. Commitment Freeze; Voluntary Prepayment.
(a) From and after the date hereof, the Borrower agrees that it shall not borrow any further Loans under the Credit Agreement other than Loans (in an aggregate outstanding principal amount at any time not exceeding the Maximum FFCO Amount) meeting the following criteria:
(1) Loans the proceeds of which are used by the Borrower Entities solely to pay the acquisition cost of Future Funding Collateral Obligations Acquired in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby (other than with respect to satisfying clause (dd) of the Collateral Obligation Criteria) (such Loans, "FFCO Acquisition Loans"); provided that:
(x) such Loans are otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement; and
(y) no such Loan shall cause the remaining amount of Loans available to be drawn under this clause (a) at such time to be less than the Dollar Equivalent of the Aggregate Excess Exposure Amounts of all such Future Funding Collateral Obligations (including all Future Funding Collateral Obligations that the Borrower Entities have Committed to Acquire but which Acquisitions have not yet settled); and
(2) Loans the proceeds of which are used by the Borrower Entities solely to make advances under such Future Funding Collateral Obligations as and when required under the terms of the Credit Agreement.
(b) On the Amendment Effective Date the Borrower shall effect a Voluntary Prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to U.S.$33,000,000. On the second Business Day after the Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall effect a Voluntary Prepayment of the Loans (out of cash on deposit, first, in the Margin Account and, then, in the Principal Collection Account) in an amount equal to the sum of:
(1) the aggregate amount of cash on deposit in the Margin Account (if any); plus
(2) the amount of cash on deposit in the Principal Collection Account in excess of the sum of:
(x) the Dividend Reserve Amount;
(y) U.S.$1,100,000 (the amount in this clause (y) being the Dollar Equivalent of the Aggregate Equity Exposure Amount as at the Amendment Effective Date); and
(z) the net amounts payable by the Borrower under outstanding trade payables and receivables outstanding as of the Amendment Effective Date and counsel fees payable by the Borrower under the March 2020 Omnibus Amendment.
2.03. Cash Sweep; Priority of Payment Changes; Acquisitions; Etc.
(a) On each Payment Date, no amounts shall be payable pursuant to clause (14) of the Interest Priority of Payments or clause (11) of the Principal Priority of Payments, and all amounts otherwise available for distribution under such clauses shall be used exclusively to repay principal of the Loans until the Loans are paid in full. For each Payment Date on which amounts are applied pursuant to the Principal Priority of Payments, funds on deposit in the Principal Collection Account (in the relevant Specified Currencies) in an amount equal to the FFCO Reserve Amount at such time shall be reserved and not distributed pursuant to the Priority of Payments on such Payment Date.
(b) Other than pursuant to Section 7(d)(5) of the Credit Agreement, no Equity Distributions may be made by the Borrower after the date hereof without consent of the Administrative Agent; and no distributions may be made pursuant to Section 7(d)(5) of the Credit Agreement other than a single distribution in April 2020 (to be used, for the avoidance of doubt, solely to fund a dividend by the Fund to its equity holders) and such future distributions as may be permitted by the Administrative Agent, and, for such purposes, clause (z) therein shall be deemed to read as follows:
"(z) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the amount of all distributions made under this clause (5) in April 2020 (the "April 2020 Dividend") shall not exceed U.S.$12,000,000 (such amount, the "Dividend Reserve Amount"), which shall be permitted to be made on April 3, 2020 notwithstanding the notice provisions set forth in clause (x) above."

(c) No further Acquisitions of Collateral Obligations (other than those expressly permitted under Section 1.5 hereof) by any Borrower Entity will be permitted after the date hereof other than any Acquisition of Collateral Obligations (in each case excluding Future Funding Collateral Obligations) that the Borrower Entities receive as a capital contribution (provided that no such Collateral Obligations received as a capital contribution after the Amendment Effective Date shall be included in the calculation of the Adjusted Collateral Value under the Margining Agreement), and Section 8 of the Principal Priority of Payments is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
"(8) [reserved]".
2.04. Additional Events of Default. Section 9 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to add the following Events of Default (and in connection therewith the period at the end of Section 9(q) is hereby replace with "; or"):
"(r) a Qualified Equity Raise is not effected on or prior to June 22, 2020; or
(s) at any time after the closing of a Qualified Equity Raise, the Fund has less than U.S.$50,000,000 in unencumbered cash and cash equivalents; provided that this clause (s) shall not apply if the Fund has contributed not less than U.S.$50,000,000 to the Borrower and the Borrower has effected (or is in the process of effecting) a Voluntary Prepayment of the Loans hereunder with the full proceeds of such contribution; or
(t) at any time after the closing of a Qualified Equity Raise, any assets acquired by the Fund that are funded with the proceeds of such Qualified Equity Raise (or with proceeds of such assets) shall be subject to any Lien; or
(u) the occurrence of a "Participation Default" under and as defined in the Participation Agreement."
2.05. Exit Fee. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay to the Lenders, on the date on which the Loans are fully repaid and all Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement have expired, a fee (the "Exit Fee") in an aggregate amount equal to the product of (a) the Exit Fee Rate and (b) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding on March 23, 2020. Such Exit Fee shall be payable under the Priority of Payments pari passu with the principal of the Loans and shall constitute "Obligations" for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. As used herein, "Exit Fee Rate" means (a) if the Loans are fully repaid and all Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement have expired, in each case on or prior to March 23, 2021; 1%, and (b) in all other cases, 2%.
2.06. Additional Pledged Assets.
(a) The Borrower shall not, prior to the date on which the Release Conditions are satisfied, Dispose or commit to Dispose of any Additional Pledged Asset, or amend or terminate the Participation Agreement, in each case without the express prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion).
(b) If the Release Conditions have been satisfied, the security interest created under the Collateral Documents with respect to the Additional Pledged Assets shall automatically terminate, and the Collateral Agent shall (at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower) take such actions as shall be requested in writing by the Borrower to effect such release of its security interest in the Additional Pledged Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, upon satisfaction of the Release Conditions the Additional Pledged Assets shall no longer constitute "Collateral" and the Borrower shall be entitled to Dispose of the Additional Pledged Assets in its discretion as the owner of such assets.
- 3 -
2.07. Future Funding Collateral Obligations. The Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following as Section 1.5 thereof:
"1.5. Future Funding Collateral Obligations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, until otherwise notified by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower in writing, the Borrower Entities may Acquire Future Funding Collateral Obligations on and subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) The Advance Rate for each Future Funding Collateral Obligation shall be 50% (and no Future Funding Collateral Obligation shall be a second lien Collateral Obligation or a Junior Secured Collateral Obligation).
(b) At the time a Borrower Entity Commits to Acquire a Future Funding Collateral Obligation:
(1) cash shall be on deposit in the Principal Collection Account in the relevant Specified Currency in an amount equal to the Aggregate Equity Exposure Amount at such time (determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Acquisition) plus (if the April 2020 Dividend has not yet been made) the Dividend Reserve Amount;
(2) after giving effect to such Acquisition and any related FFCO Acquisition Loan, the remaining amount of Loans available to be drawn under this Agreement (determined giving effect to the limits thereon pursuant to the March 2020 Omnibus Amendment ) shall not be less than the Dollar Equivalent of the Aggregate Excess Exposure Amounts of all such Future Funding Collateral Obligations (including all Future Funding Collateral Obligations that the Borrower Entities have Committed to Acquire but which Acquisitions have not yet settled) at such time; and
(3) such Acquisition shall otherwise comply with all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, clause (dd) of the definition of "Collateral Obligation Criteria" in the Credit Agreement) and the other Transaction Documents.
(c) On the last day of the Availability Period, the Borrower shall cause to be on deposit in the Principal Collection Account an amount equal to the Aggregate Exposure Amount at such time (in the relevant Specified Currencies).
(d) Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Administrative Agent in writing, no withdrawal shall be made from the Principal Collection Account (other than withdrawals at the direction of the Investment Manager that will be used contemporaneously solely to fund Equity Exposure Amounts and the April 2020 Dividend) unless, after giving effect thereto, funds are on deposit therein in an amount equal to the Aggregate Equity Exposure Amount at such time (in the relevant Specified Currencies) plus (if the April 2020 Dividend has not yet been made) the Dividend Reserve Amount. The amount required to be on deposit in the Principal Collection Account is referred to herein as the "FFCO Reserve Amount". The Investment Manager shall instruct the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Administrator in respect of the FFCO Reserve Amount (and the applicable currency thereof), provided that any changes to the amount thereof or any uses thereof shall require confirmation by the Administrative Agent. For administrative purposes, the Collateral Agent may establish one or more sub-accounts of the Principal Collection Account for the deposit and maintenance of the FFCO Reserve Amount.
(e) Funds so reserved in the Principal Collection Account under clause (d) above will be invested in overnight funds that are Eligible Investments in accordance with the written instructions of the Investment Manager (which may be in the form of standing instructions) (and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the protections set forth in Section 6.1(b) with respect to such investments).
- 4 -
(f) Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower will not at any time permit the Dollar Equivalent (at their respective Initial FX Rates) of the Aggregate Exposure Amount to exceed the Maximum FFCO Amount minus the aggregate principal amount of FFCO Acquisition Loans theretofore made.
(g) If at any time the Borrower makes a borrowing of Loans or makes a withdrawal from the Principal Collection Account and in each case the proceeds thereof will be used to fund Exposure Amounts under a Future Funding Collateral Obligation, the Borrower shall, as a condition to such borrowing or such withdrawal, deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent a duly executed funding notice delivered by or on behalf of the Obligors on such Future Funding Collateral Obligation."
