CREDIT AGREEMENT
This Credit Agreement, dated as of August 15, 2001 (this
"AGREEMENT"), among divine, inc., a Delaware corporation ("LENDER") and Open
Market, Inc., a Delaware corporation, with offices at Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the "BORROWER").
W I T N E S S E T H:
- - - - - - - - - -
WHEREAS, Borrower, Lender and a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Lender are entering into the Agreement of Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") providing for the acquisition of Borrower by Lender;
WHEREAS, Borrower has requested Lender to make available to
Borrower the credit facility described herein, which Borrower will use for the
purposes permitted hereunder;
WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in ANNEX A
which is attached hereto and incorporated herein; the rules of construction
contained therein shall govern the interpretation of this Agreement, and all
Annexes, Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto are incorporated herein by
reference;
WHEREAS, Lender has agreed to make available to Borrower a
credit facility upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and
agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for good and valuable consideration,
the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Lender, and Borrower hereby agree
as follows.
ARTICLE 1
LOANS
1.1 FACILITY. Subject to all of the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, Lender agrees to make available a term loan credit facility of
up to the Maximum Amount during the periods described in such definition to
Borrower during the term of this Agreement.
1.2 LOANS.
(a) (i) AMOUNTS. Subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth in ARTICLE 8, Lender agrees,
upon Borrower's request from time to time on any Business Day
during the period from the Closing Date to the Termination
Date, to make loans (the "Loans") to Borrower in amounts not
to exceed the Available Amount. In connection with the
execution of this Agreement, Borrower is delivering a Notice
of Borrowing (as defined below) to be funded on the date of
this Agreement. The initial funds shall be deposited via wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the account
described on SCHEDULE 1.2 to this Agreement (the "Designated
Account").
(ii) Borrower shall execute and deliver to
Lender a note to evidence the Loans made by Lender. The note
shall be in the principal amount of the Commitment, be dated
the date hereof and be substantially in the form of EXHIBIT A
(the "NOTE"). The Note shall represent the obligation of
Borrower to pay the amount of the Commitment, or, if less, the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans to Borrower
together with interest thereon as prescribed herein. The
entire unpaid balance of the Loans and all other
non-contingent Obligations shall be immediately due and
payable in full in immediately available funds on the
Termination Date.
(b) PROCEDURE FOR BORROWING.
(1) Each Borrowing shall be made upon
Borrower's irrevocable written notice delivered to Lender in the form of a
notice of borrowing in the form of EXHIBIT B hereto ("Notice of Borrowing"),
which must be received by Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) one Business
Day prior to the requested Funding Date specifying:
(A) the amount of the Borrowing; and
(B) the requested Funding Date, which must be
a Business Day.
(2) In lieu of delivering a Notice of
Borrowing, Borrower may give Lender telephonic notice of such request for
advances to the Designated Account on or before the deadline set forth above.
Lender at all times shall be entitled to rely on such telephonic notice in
making such Loans, regardless of whether any written confirmation is received.
(c) RELIANCE UPON AUTHORITY. Lender is authorized to
transfer the proceeds of any Loans requested hereunder to the
Designated Account. Borrower may designate a replacement
account from time to time by written notice. All such
Designated Accounts must be located in the continental United
States of America and must be reasonably satisfactory to
Lender. Lender is entitled to rely conclusively on any
person's request for Loans on behalf of Borrower, so long as
the proceeds thereof are to be transferred to the Designated
Account.
NO LIABILITY. Lender shall not incur any
liability to Borrower as a result of acting upon any notice
referred to in SECTIONS 1.2(B) and (C), which Lender believes
in good faith to have been given by an officer or other person
duly authorized by Borrower to request Loans on its behalf.
The crediting of Loans to the Designated Account conclusively
establishes the obligation of Borrower to repay such Loans as
provided herein.
2
ARTICLE 2
INTEREST
2.1 INTEREST.
(a) INTEREST RATES. All outstanding Obligations shall
bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof
(including, to the extent permitted by law, on interest
thereon not paid when due) from the date made until paid in
full in cash at a rate equal to the Applicable Rate. All
interest charges shall be computed on the basis of a year of
365 days and actual days elapsed. Borrower shall pay to Lender
interest accrued on all Loans on the Termination Date.
(b) DEFAULT RATE. If any Event of Default occurs and
is continuing and Lender in its discretion so elects, then,
while any such Event of Default is continuing, all of the
Obligations shall bear interest at the rate otherwise
applicable thereto, plus two percent (2%) per annum applicable
thereto.
2.2 MAXIMUM INTEREST RATE In no event shall any interest
rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum rate legally chargeable under
applicable law with respect to loans of the type provided for hereunder (the
"Maximum Rate"). If, in any month, any interest rate, absent such limitation,
would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate for that month
shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future months, that interest rate would
otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then that interest rate shall remain at
the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals
the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been
limited by the Maximum Rate. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines
that Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the
Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall
automatically be applied to reduce, the Obligations other than interest, in the
inverse order of maturity, and if there are no Obligations outstanding, Lender
shall refund to Borrower such excess.
ARTICLE 3
PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS
3.1 LOANS. Borrower may prepay the Loans at any time,
subject to the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall repay the outstanding
principal balance of the Loans, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, on
the Termination Date. Borrower may not reborrow any amounts that are prepaid in
accordance with this SECTION 3.1.
3.2 TERMINATION OF FACILITY. Borrower may terminate this
Agreement upon at least three (3) Business Days' notice to Lender, upon the
payment in full of all outstanding Loans, together with accrued interest
thereon, and the payment in full in cash of all other Obligations then
outstanding.
3.3 PAYMENTS BY BORROWER. All payments to be made by
Borrower shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower shall be made to
Lender, at the account designated by Lender,
3
in Dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 3:00 p.m. (Chicago
time) on the date specified herein.
3.4 APPLICATION AND REVERSAL OF PAYMENTS. All such payments
not relating to principal or interest of specific Loans, or not constituting
payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of Collateral received by Lender,
shall be applied, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, FIRST, to pay any
fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Lender; SECOND, to pay
interest due in respect of all Loans; and THIRD, to pay or prepay principal of
the Loans. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and
reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the
Obligations.
3.5 INDEMNITY FOR RETURNED PAYMENTS. If after receipt of any
payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations,
Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any
Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared
fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference,
impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason,
then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived
and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment
or proceeds had not been received by such Person and Borrower shall be liable to
pay to Lender, and hereby does indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless for the
amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this SECTION
3.5 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may
have been taken by Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of
proceeds, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to
Lender's rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been
conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final and
irrevocable. The provisions of this SECTION 3.5 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.
3.6 CONVERSION. (a) Upon termination of the Merger Agreement
pursuant to Sections 8.2(d), 8.3(a) or 8.3(b) thereof (the "Conversion Date"),
all Loans and Obligations shall automatically be converted (the "Conversion")
into the number of shares of Common Stock of Borrower equal to the aggregate
amount of the Loans and Obligations (without duplication) then outstanding,
divided by the Exchange Ratio calculated as of the Conversion Date, as such
Exchange Ratio may have been adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Merger
Agreement.
(b) The Conversion shall be deemed to have been made
immediately before the close of business on the Conversion Date, so that the
rights of Lender under this Agreement and the Security Agreement shall cease at
such time (other than those rights that expressly survive the termination of
this Agreement) and Lender shall be treated for all purposes as having become
the record holder or holders of the Common Stock described in Section 3.6(a) at
such time, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received by Lender
shall be determined at such time.
(c) Borrower covenants that it will at all times reserve and
keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
issuance upon conversion of the Loans and Obligations as herein provided, such
number of shares of Common Stock as shall be issuable upon the conversion of the
entire Commitment. Borrower covenants that all shares of Common Stock which
shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued and fully-paid and
non-assessable.
4
(d) Borrower covenants that if any shares of Common Stock
required to be reserved for issuance upon conversion of the Loans and
Obligations require registration with or approval of any Governmental Authority
under any federal or state law before such shares may be issued upon conversion,
Borrower will, at its expense and as expeditiously as possible, cause such
shares to be duly registered or approved, as the case may be.
(e) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock
upon the Conversion shall be made within one (1) Business Day of the Conversion
Date without charge to Lender for any tax in respect of the issuance of such
certificates, and such certificates shall be issued in the respective names of,
or in such names as may be directed by, the holder of this Term Note.
(f) To the extent that the Loans and Obligations are not
converted into shares of Common Stock, such portion shall remain a secured debt
of Borrower payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
ARTICLE 4
TAXES
4.1 TAXES
(a) Any and all payments by Borrower to Lender under
this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be made free
and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any
Taxes. In addition, Borrower shall pay all Other Taxes.
(b) Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including
any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on
amounts payable under this Section) paid by Lender and any
liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and
expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether
or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally
asserted.
ARTICLE 5
BOOKS AND RECORDS; FINANCIAL INFORMATION; NOTICES
5.1 BOOKS AND RECORDS Borrower shall maintain, at all times,
books, records and accounts which are complete, correct and timely in all
material respects so as to permit the preparation of financial statements in
accordance in all material respects with GAAP applied consistently.
5.2 FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION. Borrower shall promptly
furnish to Lender, all such financial and other information as Lender shall
reasonably request.
5.3 NOTICES TO LENDER. Borrower shall notify Lender in writing
of the following matters at the following times:
(a) As soon as practicable, after becoming aware of
any Default or Event of Default;
5
(b) As soon as practicable, after becoming aware of
any event or circumstance which is reasonably likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect on Borrower; and
(c) Any change in Borrower's name, state of
organization, locations of Collateral, or form of
organization, or trade names under which Borrower creates
accounts or to which instruments in payment of accounts may be
made payable, in each case at least thirty (30) days prior
thereto.
ARTICLE 6
GENERAL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS
Borrower warrants and represents to Lender that except as
hereafter disclosed to and accepted by Lender in writing:
6.1 AUTHORIZATION, VALIDITY, AND ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. Borrower and each of its Restricted
Subsidiaries has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and
perform this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, to
incur the Obligations, and to grant to Lender Liens upon and security interests
in the Collateral. Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries have taken
all necessary action (including obtaining approval of its stockholders if
necessary) to authorize its execution, delivery, and performance of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement
and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is
a party have been duly executed and delivered by Borrower and such Subsidiaries,
and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower and such
Subsidiaries to the extent a party thereto, enforceable against it in accordance
with their respective terms (subject to equitable principles and the effect of
bankruptcy laws). Borrower's and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries' execution,
delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
which it is a party do not and will not conflict with, or constitute a violation
or breach of, or (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) result in the
imposition of any Lien upon the property of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
by reason of the terms of (a) any material contract, mortgage, lease, agreement,
indenture, or instrument to which Borrower or any of Borrower's Subsidiaries is
a party or which is binding upon any of Borrower or Borrower's Subsidiaries or
any of their property, (b) any Requirement of Law applicable to Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries, or (c) the certificate or articles of incorporation or
by-laws or the limited liability company or limited partnership agreement or
other constitutive and organizational documents, as applicable, of Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries.
6.2 VALIDITY AND PRIORITY OF SECURITY INTEREST. The provisions
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents create legal and valid liens on,
and security interests in, on all the Collateral in favor of Lender, and,
assuming appropriate possessions, filings and recordations are made by Lender,
such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on all the Collateral,
having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral (other than Permitted
Liens), securing all the Obligations, and enforceable against Borrower and all
third parties (subject to equitable principles and the effect of bankruptcy
laws).
6
6.3 ORGANIZATION AND QUALIFICATION. Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries is duly organized or incorporated and validly existing in good
standing under the laws of the state of its organization or incorporation or
formation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the lack of good
standing would have a Material Adverse Effect on Borrower.

Subsidiaries is in violation of any law, statute, regulation, ordinance,

have been executed by each party thereto (other than Lender)
and Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall have performed and
complied in all material respects with all covenants,
agreements and conditions contained herein and the other Loan
Documents which are required to be performed or complied with

the Liens granted to Silicon Valley Bank).
The acceptance by Borrower of Loans made shall be deemed to be

the following statements shall be true, and the acceptance by
Borrower of any Loan shall be deemed to be a statement to the

by a Responsible Officer of Borrower, on behalf of Borrower,
dated the date of such Loan, stating that:

contained in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and in the Merger Agreement are true and

Borrower that any representation or warranty is not

discretion, in writing compliance with such
representation or warranty; and
(ii) No event has occurred and is
continuing, or would result from such Loan, which
