THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of September 29, 2020 is entered into among the VARIOUS ENTITIES LISTED ON SCHEDULE I HERETO (each, an “Originator”; and collectively, “Originators”), TRIUMPH GROUP, INC., individually (“Triumph”) and as initial Servicer (as defined below), and TRIUMPH RECEIVABLES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”).
DEFINITIONS
Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit I to the Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), among the Company, as Seller, Triumph, as initial Servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), the various Purchasers, LC Participants and Purchaser Agents from time to time party thereto, PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrator and as LC Bank, and PNC Capital Markets LLC, as Structuring Agent. All references herein to months are to calendar months unless otherwise expressly indicated.
This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety, as of the Closing Date, the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of August 7, 2008 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Prior Agreement”), among each of the parties hereto. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Prior Agreement shall, subject to this paragraph, be superseded hereby in their entirety. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, (a) all indemnification obligations of the Originators under the Prior Agreement shall survive the Prior Agreement, (b) all sales of Receivables and Related Rights under the Prior Agreement by the Originators to the Company are hereby ratified and confirmed and shall survive the Prior Agreement and (c) the security interests granted by the Originators pursuant to Section 1.5 of the Prior Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall survive the Prior Agreement as security for all obligations of the Originators under the Prior Agreement until such obligations have been finally and fully paid and performed. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, each reference to the Prior Agreement in any other Transaction Document shall mean and be a reference to this Agreement. Nothing contained herein, unless expressly herein stated to the contrary, is intended to amend, modify or otherwise affect any other instrument, document or agreement executed and/or delivered in connection with the Prior Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, all amounts outstanding or owing by the Company under the Company Notes remain outstanding or owing by the Company.
BACKGROUND:
1. The Company is a special purpose limited liability company, all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of which are owned by Triumph;
2. The Originators generate Receivables in the ordinary course of their businesses;
3. The Originators wish to sell Receivables to the Company, and the Company is willing to purchase Receivables from the Originators, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;
4. The Originators and the Company intend this transaction to be a true sale of Receivables by each Originator to the Company, providing the Company with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables, and the Originators and the Company do not intend the transactions hereunder to be characterized as a loan from the Company to any Originator.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE AND SELL
SECTION 1.1 Agreement To Purchase and Sell. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Originator, severally and for itself, agrees to sell to the Company, and the Company agrees to purchase from such Originator, from time to time on or after the Initial Closing Date, but before the Purchase and Sale Termination Date (as defined in Section 1.4), all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to:
(a) each Receivable of such Originator that existed and was owing to such Originator at the closing of such Originator’s business on June 30, 2008 (the “Cut-off Date”);
(b) each Receivable generated by such Originator from and including the Cut-off Date to but excluding the Purchase and Sale Termination Date;
(c) all rights to, but not the obligations of, such Originator under all Related Security with respect to any of the foregoing Receivables;
(d) all monies due or to become due to such Originator with respect to any of the foregoing;
(e) all books and records of such Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing;
(f) all Collections and other proceeds and products of any of the foregoing (each as defined in the UCC) that are or were received by such Originator on or after the Cut-off Date, including, without limitation, all funds which either are received by such Originator, the Company or the Servicer from or on behalf of the Obligors in payment of any amounts owed (including, without limitation, invoice price, finance charges, interest and all other charges) in respect of any of the above Receivables or are applied to such amounts owed by the Obligors (including, without limitation, any insurance payments that such Originator, the Company or the Servicer applies in the ordinary course of its business to amounts owed in respect of any of the above Receivables, and net proceeds of sale or other disposition of repossessed goods or other collateral or property of the Obligors in respect of any of the above Receivables or any other parties directly or indirectly liable for payment of such Receivables); and
2
(g) all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) in and to each lock-box address and all Lock-Box Accounts, into which any Collections or other proceeds with respect to such Receivables may be deposited, and any related investment property acquired with any such Collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC) ((a) through (g), collectively, the “Collateral”).
All purchases hereunder shall be made without recourse, but shall be made pursuant to, and in reliance upon, the representations, warranties and covenants of the Originators set forth in this Agreement. No obligation or liability to any Obligor on any Receivable is intended to be assumed by the Company hereunder, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. The Company’s foregoing commitment to purchase Receivables and the proceeds and rights described in clauses (c) through (g) (collectively, the “Related Rights”) is herein called the “Purchase Facility.”
SECTION 1.2 Timing of Purchases.
(a) Initial Closing Date Purchases. Each Originator’s entire right, title and interest in (i) each Receivable that existed and was owing to such Originator at the Cut-off Date, (ii) all Receivables created by such Originator from and including the Cut-off Date, to and including the Initial Closing Date, and (iii) all Related Rights with respect thereto were automatically deemed to have been sold by such Originator to the Company on the Initial Closing Date.
(b) Subsequent Purchases. After the Initial Closing Date, until the Purchase and Sale Termination Date, each Receivable and the Related Rights generated by each Originator shall be, and shall be deemed to have been sold by such Originator to the Company immediately (and without further action) upon the creation of such Receivable.
SECTION 1.3 Consideration for Purchases. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to make Purchase Price payments to the Originators in accordance with Article III.
SECTION 1.4 Purchase and Sale Termination Date. The “Purchase and Sale Termination Date” shall be the earliest to occur of (a) the date the Purchase Facility is terminated pursuant to Section 8.2 and (b) the Final Payout Date.
SECTION 1.5 Intention of the Parties. It is the express intent of each Originator and the Company that each conveyance by such Originator to the Company pursuant to this Agreement of the Receivables and Related Rights, including without limitation, all Receivables, if any, constituting general intangibles as defined in the UCC, and all Related Rights be construed as a valid and perfected sale and absolute assignment (without recourse except as provided herein) of such Receivables and Related Rights by such Originator to the Company (rather than the grant of a security interest to secure a debt or other obligation of such Originator) and that the right, title and interest in and to such Receivables and Related Rights conveyed to the Company be prior to
3
the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including, without limitation, lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such Originator. Notwithstanding for foregoing, it is the intent of such Originator and the Company that (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC; and (ii) each Originator hereby grants to the Company as of the date of this Agreement, a security interest in, to and under all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to: (A) the Receivables and the Related Rights now existing and hereafter created by such Originator transferred or purported to be transferred hereunder, (B) all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto, (C) all books and records of such Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing, (D) all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) of such Originator in and to each lock-box address and account (including, without limitation, all related Lock-Box Accounts) to which Collections or other proceeds with respect to such Receivables are sent, all amounts on deposit therein, and any related investment property acquired with any such collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC) and (E) all proceeds and products of any of the foregoing to secure all of such Originator’s obligations hereunder.
ARTICLE II
PURCHASE REPORT; CALCULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE
SECTION 2.1 Purchase Report. On the Closing Date and on the 24th day of each calendar month thereafter (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next occurring Business Day) (each such date, a “Monthly Purchase Report Date”), the Servicer shall deliver to the Company and each Originator a report in substantially the form of Exhibit A (each such report being herein called a “Purchase Report”) setting forth, among other things:
(a) Receivables purchased by the Company from each Originator on the Closing Date (in the case of the Purchase Report to be delivered on the Closing Date);
(b) Receivables purchased by the Company from each Originator during the period commencing on the Monthly Purchase Report Date immediately preceding such Monthly Purchase Report Date to (but not including) such Monthly Purchase Report Date (in the case of each subsequent Purchase Report); and
(c) the calculations of reductions of the Purchase Price for any Receivables as provided in Section 3.3 (a) and (b).
SECTION 2.2 Calculation of Purchase Price. The “Purchase Price” to be paid to each Originator for the Receivables that are purchased hereunder from such Originator shall be determined in accordance with the following formula:
PP | = | OB x FMVD | ||
where: |
|
| ||
PP | = | Purchase Price for each Receivable as calculated on the relevant Payment Date. |
4
OB | = | The Outstanding Balance of such Receivable on the relevant Payment Date. | ||
FMVD | = | Fair Market Value Discount, as measured on such Payment Date, which is equal to the quotient (expressed as percentage) of (a) one divided by (b) sum of (i) one, plus (ii) the product of (A) the Prime Rate on such Payment Date, and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Days’ Sales Outstanding (calculated as of the last Business Day of the calendar month next preceding such Payment Date) and the denominator of which is 365. |
“Payment Date” means (i) the Closing Date and (ii) each Business Day thereafter that the Originators are open for business.
“Prime Rate” means a per annum rate equal to the “Prime Rate” as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal or if such information ceases to be published in The Wall Street Journal, such other publication as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.
ARTICLE III
PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE
SECTION 3.1 Initial Purchase Price Payment. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that the Originators have received payment in full of the aggregate Purchase Price due from the Company under the Prior Agreement for all sales of Receivables and Related Rights occurring thereunder prior to the date hereof in accordance with the terms of the Prior Agreement.
SECTION 3.2 Subsequent Purchase Price Payments. On each Payment Date subsequent to the Closing Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the Receivables generated by such Originator on such Payment Date:
(a) First, in cash to the extent the Company has cash available therefor (and such payment is not prohibited under the Receivables Purchase Agreement) and/or, if requested by an Originator and permitted under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, by causing the LC Bank to issue one or more Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 3.5 and on the terms and conditions for issuing Letters of Credit under the Receivables Purchase Agreement; and
(b) Second, to the extent any portion of the Purchase Price remains unpaid, the principal amount outstanding under the promissory note in the form of Exhibit B issued to such Originator (each such promissory note, as it may be amended, restated, supplemented, endorsed or otherwise modified from time to time, together with all promissory notes issued from time to time in substitution therefor or renewal thereof in accordance with the Transaction Documents, each being herein called a “Company Note”) shall be automatically increased by an amount equal to such remaining Purchase Price.
5
For the avoidance of doubt, no portion of the Purchase Price shall be deemed to remain unpaid for purposes of the foregoing to the extent that a Letter of Credit has been issued and applied as a credit against the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.5.
The Servicer shall make all appropriate record keeping entries with respect to each of the Company Notes to reflect the foregoing payments and reductions made pursuant to Section 3.3, and the Servicer’s books and records shall constitute rebuttable presumptive evidence of the principal amount of, and accrued interest on, each of the Company Notes at any time. Each Originator hereby irrevocably authorizes the Servicer to xxxx the Company Notes “CANCELED” and to return such Company Notes to the Company upon the final payment thereof after the occurrence of the Purchase and Sale Termination Date.
SECTION 3.3 Settlement as to Specific Receivables and Dilution.
(a) If, (i) on the day of purchase of any Receivable from an Originator hereunder, any of the representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.10, 5.15 and 5.17 are not true with respect to such Receivable or (ii) as a result of any action or inaction (other than solely as a result of the failure to collect such Receivable due to a discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding or other credit related reasons with respect to the relevant Obligor) of such Originator, on any subsequent day, any of such representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.10, 5.15 and 5.17 is no longer true with respect to such Receivable, then the Purchase Price, with respect to such Receivable shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and shall be accounted to such Originator as provided in clause (c) below; provided, that if the Company thereafter receives payment on account of Collections due with respect to such Receivable, the Company promptly shall deliver such funds to such Originator.
(b) If, on any day, the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable purchased hereunder is reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected or returned goods or services, or any revision, cancellation, allowance, discount or other adjustment made by any Originator, the Company or the Servicer (of any Affiliate thereof) or any setoff or dispute between any Originator or the Servicer and an Obligor as indicated on the books of the Company (or, for periods prior to the Closing Date, the books of such Originator), then the Purchase Price with respect to such Receivable shall be reduced by the amount of such net reduction and shall be accounted to such Originator as provided in clause (c) below.
(c) Any reduction in the Purchase Price of any Receivable pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above shall be applied as a credit for the account of the Company against the Purchase Price of Receivables subsequently purchased by the Company from such Originator hereunder; provided, however if there have been no purchases of Receivables from such Originator (or insufficiently large purchases of Receivables) to create a Purchase Price sufficient to so apply such credit against, the amount of such credit:
6
(i) to the extent of any outstanding principal balance under the Company Note payable to such Originator, shall be deemed to be a payment under, and shall be deducted from the principal amount outstanding under, the Company Note payable to such Originator; and
(ii) after making any deduction pursuant to clause (i) above, shall be paid in cash to the Company by such Originator in the manner and for application as described in the following proviso;
provided, further, that at any time (y) when a Termination Event or an Unmatured Termination Event exists under the Receivables Purchase Agreement or (z) on or after the Purchase and Sale Termination Date, the amount of any such credit shall be paid by such Originator to the Company by deposit in immediately available funds into a Lock-Box Account for application by the Servicer to the same extent as if Collections of the applicable Receivable in such amount had actually been received on such date.
SECTION 3.4 Reconveyance of Receivables. In the event that an Originator has paid to the Company the full Outstanding Balance of any Receivable pursuant to Section 3.3, the Company shall reconvey such Receivable to such Originator, without representation or warranty, but free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges, and encumbrances created by the Company.
SECTION 3.5 Letters of Credit.
(a) Any Originator may request that the Purchase Price for Receivables sold on a Payment Date be paid by the Company procuring the issuance of a Letter of Credit by the LC Bank. Upon the request of an Originator, and on the terms and conditions for issuing Letters of Credit under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (including any limitations therein on the amount of any such issuance), the Company agrees to cause the LC Bank to issue, on the Payment Dates specified by such Originator, Letters of Credit on behalf of the Company (and, if applicable, on behalf of, or for the account of, such Originator or an Affiliate of such Originator that is acceptable to the LC Bank in its sole discretion) in favor of the beneficiaries elected by such Originator or Affiliate of such Originator, with the consent of the Company. The aggregate stated amount of the Letters of Credit being issued on any Payment Date on behalf of such Originator or an Affiliate of such Originator shall constitute a credit against the aggregate Purchase Price otherwise payable by the Company to such Originator on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 3.2. To the extent that the aggregate stated amount of the Letters of Credit being issued on any Payment Date exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price payable by the Company to such Originator on such Payment Date, such excess shall be deemed to be (i) a reduction in the outstanding principal balance of (and, to the extent necessary, the accrued but unpaid interest on) the Company Note payable to such Originator, to the extent the outstanding principal balance (and accrued interest) is greater than such excess and/or (ii) a reduction in the Purchase Price payable on the Payment Dates immediately following the date any such Letter of Credit is issued. In the event that any such Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 3.5 (i) expires or is cancelled or otherwise terminated with all or any portion of its stated amount undrawn, (ii) has its stated amount decreased (for a reason other than a drawing having been made thereunder) or (iii) the Company’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect thereof is reduced
7
for any reason other than by virtue of a payment made in respect of a drawing thereunder, then an amount equal to such undrawn amount or such reduction, as the case may be, shall either be paid in cash to such Originator on the next Payment Date (but only to the extent that such payment is not prohibited under the Receivables Purchase Agreement) or, if the Company does not then have cash available therefor, shall be deemed to be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Company Note payable to such Originator. Under no circumstances shall such Originator (or any Affiliate thereof (other than the Company)) nor, for the avoidance of doubt, the Servicer have any reimbursement or recourse obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit.
(b) In the event that an Originator requests that any purchases be paid for by the issuance of a Letter of Credit hereunder, such Originator shall on a timely basis provide the Company with such information as is necessary for the Company to obtain such Letter of Credit from the LC Bank, and shall notify the Company, the Servicer, each LC Participant and the Administrator of the allocations described in clause (a) above. Such allocations shall be binding on the Company and such Originator, absent manifest error.
(c) The Originators agree to be bound by the terms of each applicable Letter of Credit Application referenced in the Receivables Purchase Agreement and that each Letter of Credit shall be subject either to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, and any amendments or revisions thereof adhered to by the LC Bank or the International Standby Practices (ISP98-International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590), and any amendments or revisions thereof adhered to by the LC Bank, as determined by the LC Bank, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

Each Originator agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that the Company, the Servicer, the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent may reasonably request in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Receivables and Related Rights purchased by the Company hereunder, or to enable the Company to exercise or enforce any of its rights hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

Without limiting the foregoing, and subject to the exclusions set forth in the preceding sentence, each Originator, severally for itself alone and Triumph, jointly and severally with each Originator, shall indemnify each Purchase and Sale Indemnified Party for Purchase and Sale Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from:
(a) the transfer by such Originator of an interest in any Receivable to any Person other than the Company;

25
(f) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding of an Obligor or other credit related reasons) of the Obligor to the payment of any Receivable or purported Receivable generated by such Originator sold or otherwise transferred or purported to be transferred hereunder (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Receivable’s or the related Contract’s not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the services related to any such Receivable or the furnishing of or failure to furnish such services;
(g) any product liability claim arising out of or in connection with services that are the subject of any Receivable generated by such Originator;
(h) the failure by such Originator to pay when due any taxes, including, without limitation, sales, excise or personal property taxes; and

(b) In the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, readjustment, reorganization or other similar event relating to the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, partial or complete, and whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than as permitted by the Purchase and Sale Agreement (such proceedings being herein collectively called “Bankruptcy Proceedings”), the Senior Interests shall first be paid and performed in full and in cash before Originator shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or distribution in respect of this Company Note.

Exhibit B-3
Senior Interest Holders) forthwith. Holder will xxxx its books and records so as clearly to indicate that this Company Note is subordinated in accordance with the terms hereof. All payments and distributions received by the Administrator in respect of this Company Note, to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be applied by the Administrator (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) first to the payment of any and all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) paid or incurred by the Senior Interest Holders in enforcing these Subordination Provisions, or in endeavoring to collect or realize upon this Company Note, and any balance thereof shall, solely as between Originator and the Senior Interest Holders, be applied by the Administrator (in the order of application set forth in Section 1.4(d) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement) toward the payment of the Senior Interests; but as between the Company and its creditors, no such payments or distributions of any kind or character shall be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect of the Senior Interests;

(g) Holder shall not, without the advance written consent of the Administrator and Purchaser, commence, or join with any other Person in commencing, any Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect to the Company until at least one year and one day shall have passed since the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash;

(i) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, at its sole discretion, without notice to Holder, and without waiving any of its rights under these Subordination Provisions, take any or all of the following actions: (i) retain or obtain an interest in any property to secure any of the Senior Interests; (ii) retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligations of any other obligor or obligors with respect to any of the Senior Interests; (iii) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Senior Interests, or release or compromise any obligation of any nature with respect to any of the Senior Interests; (iv) amend, supplement, amend and restate, or otherwise modify any Transaction Document; and (v) release its security interest in, or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for all or any part of any rights or property securing any of the Senior Interests, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), or release, compromise, alter or exchange any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such rights or property;
(j) Holder hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of these Subordination Provisions by any of the Senior Interest Holders; (ii) notice of the existence, creation, non-payment or non-performance of all or any of the Senior Interests; and (iii) all diligence in enforcement, collection or protection of, or realization upon, the Senior Interests, or any thereof, or any security therefor;
(k) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Documents to which such Persons are party, but without notice to Holder, assign or transfer any or all of the Senior Interests, or any interest therein; and, notwithstanding any such assignment or transfer or any subsequent assignment or transfer thereof, such Senior Interests shall be and remain Senior Interests for the purposes of these Subordination Provisions, and every immediate and successive assignee or transferee of any of the Senior Interests or of any interest of such assignee or transferee in the Senior Interests shall be entitled to the benefits of these Subordination Provisions to the same extent as if such assignee or transferee were the assignor or transferor; and
(l) These Subordination Provisions constitute a continuing offer from the holder of this Company Note to all Persons who become the holders of, or who continue to hold, Senior Interests; and these Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders, and the Administrator may proceed to enforce such provisions on behalf of each of such Persons.
10. General. No failure or delay on the part of Originator in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
Exhibit B-5
power or right. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Company Note shall in any event be effective unless (i) the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by the Company and Holder and (ii) all consents required for such actions under the Transaction Documents shall have been received by the appropriate Persons.
11. Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Company Note to the contrary, the Company shall never be required to pay unearned interest on any amount outstanding hereunder and shall never be required to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at a rate in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest rate that may be contracted for, charged or received under applicable federal or state law (such maximum rate being herein called the “Highest Lawful Rate”). If the effective rate of interest which would otherwise be payable under this Company Note would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, or if the holder of this Company Note shall receive any unearned interest or shall receive monies that are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the effective rate of interest payable by the Company under this Company Note to a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then (i) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable by the Company under this Company Note shall be reduced to the amount allowed by applicable law, and (ii) any unearned interest paid by the Company or any interest paid by the Company in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be refunded to the Company. Without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received by Originator under this Company Note that are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to Originator (such Highest Lawful Rate being herein called the “Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate”) shall be made, to the extent permitted by usury laws applicable to Originator (now or hereafter enacted), by amortizing, prorating and spreading in equal parts during the actual period during which any amount has been outstanding hereunder all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received by Originator in connection herewith. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to Originator on any date shall be computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate pursuant to the provisions of the foregoing sentence and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to Originator would be less than the amount of interest payable to Originator computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate, then the amount of interest payable to Originator in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate until the total amount of interest payable to Originator shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to Originator if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to the provisions of the foregoing sentence.
12. Governing Law. THIS COMPANY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHERWISE APPLICABLE CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK).
13. Captions. Paragraph captions used in this Company Note are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Company Note.
