The Borrowers may request one or more Fixed Rate Loans (by way of Advance or Conversion) provided that (i)(x) with respect to any Advance, the Borrower has identified such Loan as a Fixed Rate Loan in the applicable Underlying Financing Specification executed in connection with a Fixed Rate Loan each of the Approved Financings to be funded with the proceeds of such Fixed Rate Loan and (y) with respect to any Conversion, the Borrower has identified such Loan as a Fixed Rate Loan in an amendment to the applicable Underlying Financing Specification previously executed in connection with each Loan to be
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
42
converted and each of the Approved Financings to be funded with the proceeds of such Fixed Rate Loan (such financings described in clauses (x) and (y), the “Fixed Rate Approved Financings”); and (ii) with respect to each Fixed Rate Loan and each corresponding Fixed Rate Approved Financing the Blended Rate shall not exceed eighty percent (80%). With respect to a Fixed Rate Approved Financing, in the event that the Blended Rate for such financing exceeds 80%, the Borrowers shall promptly cause the Applicable Valuation Percentage on the Floating Rate Portion of such financing to be reduced such that, after such reduction, the Blended Rate is equal to or less than 80%; provided that in the event that a reduction in the Applicable Valuation Percentage does not or will not result in the Blended Rate being at or below 80%, the Borrowers shall, no later than five (5) Business Days from the date on which the Blended Rate exceeded 80%, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Fixed Rate Loan Portion of the Fixed Rate Approved Financing in an amount equal to the amount necessary to reduce the Blended Rate to 80% or less (any such prepayment of a Fixed Rate Loan shall be applied to such Fixed Rate Loan on a pro rata basis). The Borrowers shall submit a new Borrowing Base Certificate at the time that such Applicable Valuation Percentage is so reduced. The Borrowers shall pay the outstanding principal amount of each Fixed Rate Loan on each date set forth on the amortization schedule attached to the Underlying Financing Specification for such Fixed Rate Loan in the aggregate principal amount set forth opposite each such date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, in no event shall a Fixed Rate Loan be converted to a Base Rate Loan, Eurodollar Rate Loan or an Alternative Margin Loan.
2.5. Increase in Commitments. Borrower Agent may request an increase in Commitments from time to time upon notice to Administrative Agent, as long as the requested increase is in a minimum amount of $50,000,000 and is offered on the same terms as existing Commitments; provided that Administrative Agent may impose additional fees in connection with any increased Commitment. Administrative Agent may accept or reject any Borrower Agent request for an increase in Commitments in its sole and absolute discretion. If Administrative Agent is willing to increase the Commitments, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lenders of the requested increase and, within twenty (20) Business Days thereafter, each Lender shall notify Administrative Agent if and to what extent such Lender commits to increase its Commitment. Any Lender not responding within such period shall be deemed to have declined an increase. Administrative Agent may allocate, in its discretion, the increased Commitments among committing Lenders. Provided the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 or 6.3, as applicable, are satisfied, total Commitments shall be increased by the requested amount (or such lesser amount committed by Lenders) on a date agreed upon by Administrative Agent and Borrower Agent, but no later than forty-five (45) days following Borrowers’ increase request. Administrative Agent, Borrowers, and new and existing Lenders shall execute and deliver such documents and agreements as Administrative Agent deems appropriate to evidence the increase in and allocations of Commitments. Borrowers shall pay all agreed-upon fees and transaction expenses associated with each increase in Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.5. On the effective date of an increase, all outstanding Loans and other exposures under the Commitments shall be reallocated among Lenders, and settled by Administrative Agent if necessary, in accordance with Lenders’ adjusted shares of such Commitments.
2.6. Termination or Reduction of Commitments. On the earlier of (a) the Revolver Termination Date, (b) the date on which the aggregate principal amount of all Advances made
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
43
under the Loan Facility (without regard to any prepayment or repayments hereunder) is equal to or greater than $500,000,000 (the “Maximum Advance Limitation”), and (c) the occurrence of any event set forth in Sections 12.2.1(a) or (b) (the date of any such event, the “Commitment Termination Date”) the Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero (or with respect to clause (b) above reduced as set forth in the definition of Commitments) and no further Loans shall be made hereunder.
SECTION 3. INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES
3.1. Interest.
3.1.1. Rates and Payment of Interest.
(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof payable in arrears on each Payment Date at a rate of interest equal to the Eurodollar Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus the Margin, (ii) each Fixed Rate Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof payable in arrears on each Payment Date at a rate of interest equal to the Weighted Average Life Swaps as determined by the Administrative Agent as of the date each Fixed Rate Loan is advanced by the Lenders and as set forth in the related Underlying Financing Specifications (the “Fixed Rate”) plus the Margin and (iii) each Base Rate Loan made pursuant to Sections 3.5 or 3.6 shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof at a rate of interest equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Margin (in each case, the “Applicable Interest Rate”). In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan and the last Payment Date with respect to such Loan shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan shall be excluded.
(b) During an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Borrower, or during any other Event of Default if Administrative Agent or Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, Obligations, including any interest payments on the Loans and any fees or other amounts outstanding hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) at a rate in lieu of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans, equal to the Eurodollar Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus a margin of 5.00% per annum (the “Default Rate”), payable on demand to Administrative Agent on behalf of Lender. Each Borrower acknowledges that the cost and expense to Administrative Agent and Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that the Default Rate is fair and reasonable compensation for this. For the avoidance of doubt, during the continuance of both an Insolvency Proceeding and an Event of Default referred to in the preceding sentence, the maximum additional interest under this clause (b) shall be limited to 5.00% per annum in excess of the Applicable Interest Rate (without giving effect to the “Margin” portion of such definition and calculation) otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans.
(c) Interest shall accrue from the date an Advance is made or Obligation is incurred or payable, until paid in full by Borrowers. If a Loan is repaid on the
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
44
same day made, one day’s interest shall accrue. Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable by Borrowers in arrears, (i) on the tenth day of each calendar month during the term hereof (each a “Payment Date”); (ii) on any date of prepayment, with respect to the principal amount of Loans being prepaid; and (iii) on the Revolver Termination Date. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans and Fixed Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.
3.1.2. With respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrower may request that the Interest Period with respect to such Loan be subject to a Daily/Monthly Interest Change by delivery of a Notice of Daily/Monthly Interest Change. The Notice of Daily/Monthly Interest Change with respect to any such requested Daily/Monthly Interest Change shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than three (3) Business Days’ prior to the requested date of such Daily/Monthly Interest Change. If the date of any such Daily/Monthly Interest Change occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, Borrowers agree that any such Daily/Monthly Interest Change shall be conditioned upon Administrative Agent receipt of, and the Borrowers hereby agree to pay, all breakage costs incurred by each Lender as a result of such Daily/Monthly Interest Change, as determined by each Lender in its sole discretion.
3.2. Fees.
3.2.1. Unused Line Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of Lenders, a fee equal to the product of (x) the Unused Line Fee Rate divided by 360, multiplied by (y) the actual daily amount by which the Borrowing Base then in effect as of each such date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement exceeds the Outstanding Amount as of such date. Such fee shall accrue at all times during the term hereof, and shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date and on the, last day of the term of this Agreement.
3.2.2. Administrative Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for its own account, an administrative management fee in the amount of $33,500 per annum, payable in advance on the Loan Document Effective Date, and a like payment of $33,500 due and payable on each annual anniversary of the Loan Document Effective Date during the term of this Agreement.
3.2.3. Commitment Documents. All fees set forth in the Engagement Letter, the Agent Commitment Document and the Placement Fee Letter shall be paid as and when due and as set forth in such Engagement Letter, Agent Commitment Document or the Placement Fee Letter, including, without limitation, the Structuring Fee (as defined in the Engagement Letter) and the Placement Fee (as defined in the Placement Fee Letter).
3.3. Computation of Interest, Fees. Each determination by Administrative Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration. All fees payable under Section 3.1.2 are compensation for services and are
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
45
not, and shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention of money. A certificate as to amounts payable by Borrowers under Sections 3.4 (other than Extraordinary Expenses), 3.6, 3.7, 3.9 or 5.7, submitted to Borrower Agent by Administrative Agent or the affected Lender, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and Borrowers shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within ten (10) days following receipt of the certificate.
3.4. Reimbursement Obligations.
3.4.1. Extraordinary Expenses. Borrowers shall pay all Extraordinary Expenses. All amounts payable by Borrowers under this Section 3.4.1 shall be due and payable on demand.
3.4.2. Periodic Expenses. Borrowers shall reimburse Administrative Agent and each Lender for all reasonable and documented out-of pocket, third-party, legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other reasonable and documented, out-of pocket, third-party fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral, any Loan Document, any Advance (and the funding thereof), any Additional Collateral Event and any transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of Administrative Agent’s Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any insurance required under the Insurance Requirements or to verify Collateral, whether prepared by Administrative Agent’s personnel or a third party; (c) subject to the limits of Section 11.1.3, each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Obligor or Collateral; whether prepared by Administrative Agent’s personnel or a third party (d) subject to Sections 3.4.3 and 7.1.3, the due diligence and approval of any Nominated Financing including any Nominated Financing that is declined by Administrative Agent for financing under this Agreement; and (e) administration of and actions relating to any Intercompany Document or Underlying Financing Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of the applicable Borrower’s Liens on any collateral securing any Intercompany Loan, to maintain any insurance required under any Intercompany Documents, or to verify any collateral securing any Intercompany Loan. All amounts payable by Borrowers under this Section 3.4.2 shall be due and payable as provided in Section 3.3.
3.4.3. Specified Expenses. Any fees, costs and expenses payable by Borrowers under Section 3.4.2 which are Specified Expenses shall be subject to a maximum fee expense payable by Borrowers in an amount to be agreed by Administrative Agent and Borrowers. All amounts payable by Borrowers under this Section 3.4.3 shall be due and payable as provided in Section 3.3.
3.5. Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrowers through Administrative Agent, any obligation of such
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
46
Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) Borrowers shall, at its option, either prepay all Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert, pursuant to written notice by Borrowers the Administrative Agent, all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof until Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
3.6. Inability to Determine Rates. If in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (a) Administrative Agent determines that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (b) Required Lenders determine that for any reason the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the actual cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrowers and each Lender, together with information in reasonable detail to support such determination. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers may revoke in writing any pending request for an Advance of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for an Advance of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.
3.7. Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.
3.7.1. Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:
(a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.7.5;
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
47
(b) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, and (B) Taxes described in clauses (a) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(c) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lender, Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
3.7.2. Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
3.7.3. [Reserved]
3.7.4. Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.7 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.7.4 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
3.7.5. Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
48
determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided Borrowers shall have received at least ten (10) days’ prior notice (with a copy to Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice ten (10) days prior to the relevant Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice.
3.8. Breakage. If the Borrower prepays the principal amount any Fixed Rate Loan (other than regularly scheduled principal payments as and when required), then such prepayment shall be accompanied by, and the Borrowers hereby agree to pay, all breakage costs incurred by the Lenders as a result of such prepayment.
3.9. Funding Losses.
3.9.1. Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent) from time to time, each Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:
(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);
(b) any failure by such Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by such Borrower;
(c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by such Borrower pursuant to Section 14.4; or
(d) any failure of a Borrower to borrow a Fixed Rate Loan on the date or in the amount set forth in the Notice of Borrowing delivered to the Administrative Agent in respect of a Fixed Rate Loan, any prepayment of a Fixed Rate Loan on a date other than a scheduled amortization date or Payment Date or, if made on a scheduled amortization date or Payment Date, in an amount greater than the scheduled principal and interest due on the corresponding amortization or Payment Date;
including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained (but excluding any loss of anticipated profit). Such Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.
3.9.2. Loss Calculation. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by such Borrower to Lenders under this Section 3.9, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Applicable Interest Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
49
3.10. Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (as used in this Section 3.10, “Maximum Rate”). If Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude Voluntary Prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
SECTION 4. LOAN ADMINISTRATION
4.1. Notice of Borrowing.
4.1.1. For each request for an Advance or Conversion, Borrower Agent shall deliver to Administrative Agent a fully executed Notice of Borrowing at least five (5) Business Days prior to the requested Credit Date; provided, that with respect to a request for a Fixed Rate Loan Borrower Agent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a fully executed Notice of Borrowing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the requested Credit Date. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify and include (A) the amount of the Advance, which amount when aggregated with all other Advances in respect of the Approved Financing shall not exceed the BB Nominal Value for the Approved Financing in respect of which such Advance is being made (B) the requested Credit Date for such Advance, (C) a certification that all conditions precedent to an Advance have been (or as of the requested Credit Date will be) satisfied, (D) a Borrowing Base Certificate (which certificate must be dated no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the actual Credit Date for such Advance), (E) with respect to any Approved Subsequent Credit Date, the aggregate principal amount previously Advanced in respect of such Approved Financing, (F) the portion of the Advance, if any, that consists of a Fixed Rate Loan, (G) in connection with any Conversion, each existing Loan and the amount of any such Loan to be converted to an Alternative Margin Loan or a Fixed Rate Loan (together with all information set forth in Exhibit B-2), (H) the portion of the Advance, if any, that will be used by the Applicable Borrower Subsidiary to fund a draw request under a Delayed Draw Financing and (I) with respect to each Delayed Draw Financing, a true and complete copy of the request for borrowing delivered by the Underlying Borrower requesting that an advance be made under each such Delayed Draw Financing and its corresponding Underlying Financing Agreement. The Borrowers shall deliver a new Borrowing Base Certificate (replacing the certificate delivered with the Notice of Borrowing) to Administrative Agent if the requested Advance is not made by Lenders within five (5) Business Days after the date on which the Borrowing Base Certificate referred to in clause (D) above (or any replacement thereof) was delivered. Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such Notice of Borrowing, Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders of the requested borrowing and each Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
50
4.1.2. Each Lender shall make its Applicable Percentage of each Advance available to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Credit Date, by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars, at the Principal Office designated by Administrative Agent. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions precedent specified in this Agreement, including without limitation, the conditions set forth in Section 2.1 and Section 4.3 and if applicable, the delivery of a new Borrowing Base Certificate pursuant to Section 4.1.1, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each Loan available to Borrowers on the Credit Date requested by the Borrowers in the Notice of Borrowing, by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars equal to the proceeds of such Loans received by Administrative Agent from Lenders to be credited to the Loan Proceeds Account (as defined in Depositary Agreement) at the Principal Office designated by Administrative Agent or to such other account as may be designated in writing to Administrative Agent by Borrower Agent.
4.1.3. Any disbursements of the Loan Facility must occur within the period beginning on the Loan Document Effective Date and ending on the Revolver Termination Date. The initial Advance or in respect of an Approved Additional Collateral Event, the inclusion of the Approved Financing in the Borrowing Base must occur during the Loan Availability Period for such Approved Financing. Borrower Agent may only request either (a) one (1) Advance or (b) one (1) Additional Collateral Event in any seven (7) day period.
4.2. Defaulting Lender.
4.2.1. Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:
(a) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 15.1.1.
(b) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 12 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.4 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrowers against such
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
51
Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 or Section 6.3, as applicable, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 4.2.1(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(c) (i) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees payable under Section 3.2.1 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans funded or committed by it. (ii) With respect to any fee payable under Section 3.2.1 not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (i) above, Borrowers shall not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
4.2.2. Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrowers and Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
4.3. Amount of Loans. The aggregate principal amount of all Advances disbursed in connection with any one Approved Financing shall not be less than $10,000,000 nor greater than $33,500,000, or in such other amount as may be approved by Administrative Agent from time to time as set forth in a Underlying Financing Specification. In no event may the aggregate amount Advanced in respect of any one Approved Financing exceed the BB Nominal Value for such loan.
4.4. Borrower Agent. Each Borrower hereby designates Borrower HASI (“Borrower Agent”) as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for Loans, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of Borrower Materials, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with Administrative Agent or any
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
52
Lender. Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any notice of borrowing) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower. Administrative Agent and Lenders may give any notice or communication with any Borrower hereunder to Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower. Each of Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.
4.5. One Obligation. The Loans and other Obligations constitute one general obligation of Borrowers and are secured by Collateral Agent’s Lien on all Collateral; provided, however, that each Agent and each Lender shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Borrower to the extent of any Obligations jointly or severally owed to such Lender by such Borrower.
4.6. Effect of Termination. On the Revolver Termination Date, the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable. Until Full Payment of the Obligations, all undertakings of Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents shall continue, and Administrative Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. No Agent shall be required to terminate its Liens unless it receives a written agreement, satisfactory to it, protecting Administrative Agent and Lenders from dishonor or return of any Payment Item previously applied to the Obligations. Sections 2.3, 3.4, 3.7, 3.9, 5.4, 5.7, 5.10.1, 5.10.2, 5.11, 13, 15.2, this Section 4.6, and each indemnity or waiver given by an Obligor or Lender in any Loan Document, shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations.
SECTION 5. PAYMENTS
5.1. General Payment Provisions.
5.1.1. General. All payments to be made by Borrowers shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrowers hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
5.1.2. Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Advance of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Advance of Base Rate Loans, prior to
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
53
12:00 noon on the date of such Advance) that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Advance, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.1.2 (or, in the case of an Advance of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.1.2) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Advance available to Administrative Agent, then such Lender and Borrowers severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at (a) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (b) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to each Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Advance to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Advance. Any payment by Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent.
5.1.3. Payments Accompanied by Interest. All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of any Loan on a date when interest is due and payable with respect to such Loan) shall be applied to the payment of interest then due and payable before application to principal.
5.1.4. Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders hereunder that Borrowers will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to Lenders the amount due. In such event, if Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of Lenders severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A notice from Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower Agents with respect to any amount owing under this Section 5.1.4 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
5.1.5. Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to Administrative Agent funds for any Advance to be made by such Lender as provided
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
54
in the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, and such funds are not made available to Borrowers by Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Advance set forth in Section 6.2 or Section 6.3, as applicable, are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
5.1.6. Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 15.2.3 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 15.2.3 on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 15.2.3.
5.1.7. Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.
5.1.8. Consent to Charge of Borrower Collateral Accounts. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to instruct Collateral Agent to, upon the failure by Borrowers to pay any amount due hereunder when the same becomes payable, instruct the Depositary to, pursuant to the terms of Depositary Agreement, charge Borrower Collateral Accounts in order to cause timely payment of such unpaid amounts to be made to Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose).
5.1.9. Priority. All payments received by any Borrower in connection with any Intercompany Loan shall be applied to Obligations in the same order of priority as set forth in Section 5.5.
5.1.10. Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, such Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:
(a) 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
(b) the provisions of this Section 5.1.10 shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by or on behalf of a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
55
express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender)or (ii) 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, other than an assignment to a Borrower or its Related Borrower Subsidiary (as to which the provisions of this Section 5.1.10 shall apply).
5.1.11. Related Borrower Party Setoff; Counterclaim. Each Borrower, on behalf of itself and each Related Borrower Subsidiary, consents to the foregoing Section 5.1.10 and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to such foregoing arrangements may exercise against any Borrower Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower Party in the amount of such participation.
5.2. Repayment of Loans. The Outstanding Amount as well as all other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents shall be due and payable on the Revolver Termination Date, unless payment is sooner required or accelerated hereunder in which case such Outstanding Amount shall be due and payable on such sooner or accelerated date.
5.2.1. Mandatory Prepayments.
(a) If on any date the Aggregate Usage exceeds the then applicable Borrowing Base (including if due to the exclusion of a Watched Loan from the calculation of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 9.1), Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce the Aggregate Usage to the then applicable Borrowing Base amount as follows:
If on any date the Aggregate Usage:
(i) is greater than 105% of the current Borrowing Base amount as determined by reference to a Borrowing Base Certificate (the “Initial Borrowing Base Certificate”), then Borrowers shall, no later than the earlier of (A) five (5) Business Days from either the Administrative Agent’s written approval of the Initial Borrowing Base Certificate pursuant to Section 9.1.3 or its delivery of a revised certificate in response to the Initial Borrowing Base Certificate and (B) the first Business Day of the calendar month that immediately succeeds the month in which the Initial Borrowing Base Certificate was delivered to the Administrative Agent (the “Prepay Period”) prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in an amount necessary to reduce the Aggregate Usage to an amount less than or equal to 100% of such Borrowing Base amount; provided that Borrowers may request that an Approved Financing not previously included within the Initial Borrowing Base Certificate calculation, be added to the Borrowing Base as Eligible Collateral prior to the expiration of the Prepay Period. In the event that such Approved Financing if added to the Borrowing Base using an agreed BB Nominal Value and BB Adjusted Value, would cause the Borrowing Base to equal or exceed the Aggregate Usage, as evidenced by a new Borrowing Base Certificate that has been approved by Administrative Agent (the “Supplemental Borrowing Base Certificate”), and such new Approved Financing
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
56
is subsequently added to the Borrowing Base (following the satisfaction of conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement including, without limitation Section 6.2) as an Approved Additional Collateral Event prior to the expiration of the Prepay Period, the Borrowers will no longer be obligated to prepay the Loans as a result of the original over-advance; provided that if, following the approval of the Supplemental Borrowing Base Certificate and addition to the Borrowing Base of such new Approved Financing the Aggregate Usage would still exceed the Borrowing Base amount as determined pursuant to the Supplemental Borrowing Base Certificate, Administrative Agent may immediately thereafter apply any and all funds in the Borrower Collateral Accounts to prepay the Loans until such time (but in no event later than the expiration of the Prepay Period) as the Aggregate Usage is equal to or less than the Borrowing Base amount; provided further that, nothing herein shall relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to repay the Loans no later than the expiration of the Prepay Period if the inclusion of an Approved Financing and/or sweeping of the Borrower Collateral Accounts do not otherwise reduce the Aggregate Usage to an amount less than or equal to the Borrowing Base as determined by reference to the Initial Borrowing Base Certificate or the Supplemental Borrowing Base Certificate if an Approved Financing was added to the Borrowing Base prior to the end of the Prepay Period. To the extent the provisions of this Section 5.2.1(a)(i) are applicable, Borrowers shall indicate to Administrative Agent on each date a Borrowing Base Certificate is delivered whether Borrowers will elect to provide new Approved Financings or otherwise prepay the Loans; or
(ii) is greater than 100% but equal to or less than 105% of the then current Borrowing Base amount as determined by reference to the most recently delivered Borrowing Base Certificate, then, Borrowers shall cause all amounts on deposit in the Borrower Collateral Accounts to be applied on (I) the earlier of the (x) Payment Date immediately following the delivery of such Borrowing Base Certificate and (y) the date that is five (5) Business Days after the approval by the Administrative Agent of such Borrowing Base Certificate or Administrative Agents delivery of a revised certificate in response to such Borrowing Base Certificate and (II) on each Payment Date thereafter, in each case, to prepay the principal amount of the Loan Facility in accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement until such time as the Aggregate Usage is equal to or less than 100% of the then current Borrowing Base amount,
(b) If the Interest Service Coverage Ratio as of the end of any Interest Coverage Calculation Period is less than the Interest Service Coverage Ratio Threshold for such Interest Coverage Calculation Period, Borrowers shall, no later than five (5) Business Days after the last day of such period, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in an amount sufficient to cause such Interest Service Coverage Ratio to be at least equal to such Interest Service Coverage Ratio Threshold, as evidenced by a new Borrowing Base Certificate that has been delivered by the Borrowers to Administrative Agent following such payment, and subsequently approved by Administrative Agent.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
57
(c) All of the Loans shall become due and payable in full and the Borrowers shall repay all Loans in full immediately upon the consummation of a merger or consolidation of any Guarantor Party (as defined in the Guaranty) in accordance with Section 15(b)(xii)(A) of the Guaranty or an acquisition by any Guarantor Party (as defined in the Guaranty) in accordance with Section 15(b)(xiv)(A) of the Guaranty.
(d) (1) An Alternative Margin Loan shall become due and payable in full and the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of such Alternative Margin Loan in full, on the date on which the Alternative Margin Approved Financing in respect of such Alternative Margin Loan is removed from, or is otherwise no longer calculated as part of, the Borrowing Base and (2) a Fixed Rate Loan shall become due and payable in full and the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of such Fixed Rate Loan in full, on the date on which all of the Fixed Rate Approved Financings in respect of such Fixed Rate Loan are removed from, or are otherwise no longer calculated as part of, the Borrowing Base.
(e) If on any date the outstanding principal amount of a Fixed Rate Loan exceeds the Fixed Rate Borrowing Base in respect of such Fixed Rate Loan then the Borrowers shall, no later than five (5) Business Days from such date, prepay the outstanding principal amount of such Fixed Rate Loan in an amount necessary to reduce the outstanding principal amount of such Fixed Rate Loan to an amount less than or equal to such Fixed Rate Borrowing Base as evidenced by a Borrowing Base Certificate approved by the Administrative Agent.
(f) If on any date the outstanding principal amount of an Alternative Margin Loan exceeds the Alternative Margin Borrowing Base in respect of such Alternative Margin Loan then the Borrowers shall, no later than five (5) Business Days from such date, prepay the outstanding principal amount of such Alternative Margin Loan in an amount necessary to reduce the outstanding principal amount of such Alternative Margin Loan to an amount less than or equal to such Alternative Margin Borrowing Base as evidenced by a Borrowing Base Certificate approved by the Administrative Agent.
(g) Any such Mandatory Prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 5.5.
5.2.2. Voluntary Prepayments.
(a) On any Payment Date, Borrowers may, at its option, prepay the Loans, together with accrued interest thereon, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium except as set forth in Section 3, including without limitation Sections 3.8 and 3.9 (“Voluntary Prepayment”).
(b) All such Voluntary Prepayments shall be made upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written or telephonic irrevocable notice given to Administrative Agent by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date required and, if given by telephone, promptly confirmed by delivery of written irrevocable notice thereof to Administrative Agent (and Administrative Agent will promptly transmit such original notice by facsimile or telephone to each Lender). Any such Voluntary Prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 5.5.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
58
5.3. Payment of Other Obligations. Obligations other than Loans and Extraordinary Expenses, shall be paid by Borrowers as provided in the Loan Documents or, if no payment date is specified on demand.
5.4. Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. None of Administrative Agent or Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Obligor or against any Obligations. If any payment by or on behalf of Borrowers is made to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or if Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises a right of setoff, and any of such payment or setoff is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or a Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person, then the Obligation originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or setoff had not occurred.
5.5. Application and Allocation of Payments.
5.5.1. Payments Generally. Payments made by Borrowers hereunder shall be applied in accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement. Prior to an Event of Default and once received in accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement, (i) the aggregate amount of any Mandatory Prepayment required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.2.1(a) shall be applied to the Loans as follows: first, to the outstanding principal amount of each Alternative Margin Loan in an amount equal to the Alternative Margin Prepayment Amount for each such Alternative Margin Loan, and second, all remaining proceeds of such Mandatory Prepayment to the outstanding principal amount of all other Loans and (ii) the aggregate amount of any Mandatory Prepayment required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.4 and Sections 5.2.1(d), (e) or (f) shall be applied directly to the Alternative Margin Loan or Fixed Rate Loan being repaid, as applicable. Any proceeds of any other Mandatory Prepayment or Voluntary Prepayment not otherwise specifically referred to in this Section 5.5.1 shall, in each case, be applied to the Loans on a pro rata basis. Any prepayment of a Fixed Rate Loan paid in accordance with Section 5.2.1(e) shall be applied pro rata to the respective installments of principal thereof as set forth in the applicable Underlying Financing Specification for such loan. Any portion of the Fixed Rate Loan Portion that is repaid may not be reborrowed.
5.5.2. Post-Default Allocation. During an Event of Default, monies to be applied to the Obligations, whether arising from payments by Obligors, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, shall be allocated by Administrative Agent in its discretion.
5.5.3. Reduction of Principal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Outstanding Amount shall be reduced in connection with and in an amount equal to any Voluntary Prepayment or Mandatory Prepayment of the Loan.
5.5.4. Erroneous Application. Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by a Secured Party, the Secured Party agrees to return it).
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
59
5.5.5. Account Stated. Administrative Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, loan account(s) evidencing the Debt of Borrowers hereunder. Any failure of Administrative Agent to record anything in a loan account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder. Entries made in a loan account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein. If any information contained in a loan account is provided to or inspected by any Person, the information shall be conclusive and binding on such Person for all purposes absent manifest error, except to the extent such Person notifies Administrative Agent in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt or inspection, that specific information is subject to dispute.
5.5.6. Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of Loans made by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then such Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:
(a) 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
(b) the provisions of this Section 5.5.6 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by or on behalf of such Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender).
Each 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 Borrowers’ rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Borrower in the amount of such participation.
5.6. Evidence of Debt; Register; Lender’s Books and Records.
5.6.1. Evidence of Debt. The Advances made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Advances made by Lenders to Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
60
or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.
5.6.2. Register. Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender and the Loans of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers or Lenders (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.6.2, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the Outstanding Amount, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers and Lenders, absent manifest error; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan. Each Borrower hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as such Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 5.6.2, and each Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”
5.7. Taxes.
5.7.1. Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Tax Payment.
(a) All payments of Obligations by Obligors shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If Applicable Law (as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion exercised in good faith) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by Administrative Agent or an Obligor, then Administrative Agent or such Obligor shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding based on information and documentation provided pursuant to Section 5.8.2.
(b) If Administrative Agent or any Obligor is required by the Code to withhold or deduct Taxes, including backup withholding and withholding Taxes, from any payment, then (i) Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount that it determines is to be withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority pursuant to the Code, and (ii) to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.
(c) If Administrative Agent or any Obligor is required by any Applicable Law other than the Code to withhold or deduct Taxes from any payment, then (i) Administrative Agent or such Obligor, to the extent required by Applicable Law, shall timely pay the full amount to be withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority, and (ii)
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
61
to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.
5.7.2. Payment of Other Taxes. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at Administrative Agent’s option, timely reimburse Administrative Agent for payment of, any Other Taxes.
5.7.3. Tax Indemnification.
(a) Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Recipient against any Indemnified Taxes (including those imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.7) payable or paid by a Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to a Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Administrative Agent against any amount that a Lender fails for any reason to pay indefeasibly to Administrative Agent as required pursuant to this Section 5.7. Each Borrower shall make payment in accordance with Section 3.4 for any amount or liability payable under this Section 5.7. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Agent by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b) Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a several basis, (i) Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent Borrowers have not already paid or reimbursed Administrative Agent therefor and without limiting Borrowers’ obligation to do so), (ii) Administrative Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participant register as required hereunder, and (iii) Administrative Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent or an Obligor in connection with any Obligations, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Lender shall make payment after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section 5.7. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
5.7.4. Evidence of Payments. If Administrative Agent or an Obligor pays any Taxes pursuant to this Section 5.7, then upon request, Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrower Agent or Borrower Agent shall deliver to Administrative Agent, respectively, a copy of a receipt issued by the appropriate Governmental Authority evidencing the payment, a copy of any return required by Applicable Law to report the payment, or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent or Borrower Agent, as applicable.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
62
5.7.5. Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by Applicable Law, at no time shall Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, nor have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of a Lender. If a Recipient determines in its discretion that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrowers or with respect to which Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.7, it shall pay Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrowers with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that Borrowers agree, upon request by the Recipient, to repay the amount paid over to Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient if the Recipient is required to repay such refund to the Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Recipient shall be required to pay any amount to Borrowers if such payment would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position 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. In no event shall Administrative Agent or any Recipient be required to make its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) available to any Obligor or other Person.
5.7.6. Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.7 and Section 5.8 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by or replacement of a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, and the repayment, satisfaction, discharge or Full Payment of any Obligations.
5.8. Lender Tax Information.
5.8.1. Status of Lenders. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower Agent and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower Agent or 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 such documentation set forth in Section 5.8.2(a), (b) and (d) below) shall not be required if in 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.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)

5.8.2. Documentation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Borrower is a U.S. Person:
(a) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower Agent and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower Agent or Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;
(b) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower Agent and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower Agent or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income Tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such Tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

5.10.2. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (other than Bank of America) requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender (other than Bank of America) or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender (other than Bank of America) pursuant to Section 5.7 and, in each case, such Lender (other than Bank of America) has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 5.10.1, Borrowers may replace such Lender (other than Bank of America) in accordance with Section 14.4.
5.10.3. No Waiver. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.10, any replacement of an affected Lender shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that any Borrower, any Agent or any other Lender shall have against such affected Lender.
5.10.4. Changes to Commitment. No amount of the applicable Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 5.10, performance by each Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, as a result of any Default in the making of an Advance (a “Funding Default”) or the operation of this Section 5.10. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 5.10 are in addition to other rights and remedies that each Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default and that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default.
5.11. Nature and Extent of Each Borrower’s Liability.
5.11.1. Joint And Several Liability. Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to each Agent and Lenders the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations and all agreements under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligations hereunder constitute a continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of the Obligations, and that such obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or be bound; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 5.11) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by Agent or any Lender with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by any Agent or any Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor; (e) any election by any Agent or any Lender in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of Agent or any Lender against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (h) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
66
5.11.2. Waivers.
(a) Each Borrower expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel Agents or Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed against any Obligor, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Borrower. Each Borrower waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Full Payment of all Obligations and waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to revoke any guaranty of any Obligations as long as it is a Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower, Agents and Lenders that the provisions of this Section 5.11 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, Agents and Lenders would decline to make Loans. Each Borrower acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section 5.11 is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.
(b) Agents and Lenders may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral or any Real Estate by judicial foreclosure or nonjudicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.11. If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, any Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each Borrower consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Borrower might otherwise have had. Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of any Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. Each Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such Borrower’s rights of subrogation against any other Person. Agents may bid all or a portion of the Obligations at any foreclosure, trustee or other sale, including any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agents but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether any Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.11, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which any Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.
5.11.3. Extent of Liability; Contribution.
(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability under this Section 5.11 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such Borrower’s Allocable Amount.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
67
(b) If any Borrower makes a payment under this Section 5.11 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower’s Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Borrowers, then such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, the other Borrower for the amount of such excess, ratably based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. The “Borrower Allocable Amount” for any Borrower shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 5.11 without rendering such payment voidable under any Fraudulent Transfer Law. No Borrower’s guaranty hereunder shall extend to Obligations under a Hedging Agreement to the extent such guaranty would violate Applicable Law.
(c) Nothing contained in this Section 5.11 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay Loans made directly or indirectly to that Borrower (including Loans advanced to any other Borrower and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower), and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder. Agents and Lenders shall have the right, at any time in their discretion, to condition Loans upon a separate calculation of borrowing availability for each Borrower and to restrict the disbursement and use of such Loans to such Borrower.
5.11.4. Joint Enterprise. Each Borrower has requested that Agents and Lenders make this Loan Facility available to Borrowers on a combined basis, in order to finance Borrowers’ business most efficiently and economically. Borrowers’ business is a mutual and collective enterprise, and the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent upon the successful performance of the integrated group. Borrowers believe that extension of the Loan Facility will enhance the business of each Borrower and ease administration of the Loan Facility, all to their mutual advantage. Borrowers acknowledge that Agents’ and Lenders’ willingness to extend credit and to administer the Collateral on a combined basis hereunder is done solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at Borrowers’ request.
5.11.5. Subordination. Each Borrower hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off, that it may have at any time against any other Obligor, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of all Obligations.
5.12. Fraudulent Transfer Laws. Anything contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Obligations of Borrowers hereunder, solely to the extent that such Borrower did not receive proceeds of Loans from any borrowing hereunder, shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its Obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under §548 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 548, or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of Borrowers, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
68
Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of Borrowers in respect of intercompany Debt to any other Obligor or Affiliates of any other Obligor to the extent that such Debt would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Obligor hereunder) and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation or contribution of Borrowers pursuant to (i) Applicable Law or (ii) any agreement providing for an equitable allocation among an Obligor and other Affiliates of any Obligor of Obligations arising under guaranties by such parties.
5.13. Subrogation. Until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in Cash, each Borrower shall withhold exercise of any right of subrogation, contribution or any other right to enforce any remedy which it now has or may hereafter have against any other Obligor. Each Borrower further agrees that, to the extent the waiver of its rights of subrogation, contribution and remedies as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any such rights such Borrower may have against any other Obligor, and any collateral or security therefor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Collateral Agent may have against the other Obligor, or any such collateral or security (or the underlying assets therefor).

SECTION 13. AGENT
13.1. Appointment and Authority. Each of Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 13 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and neither Borrowers nor any other Obligor shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
13.2. Exculpatory Provisions.
13.2.1. No Duty. Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent:
(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
13.2.2. Required Lenders. Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of Required Lenders (or such
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
121
other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 15.1 and 12.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to Administrative Agent by Borrowers or a Lender.
13.2.3. Reliance. Administrative Agent 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, (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 herein or therein or the occurrence of any 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 Section 6 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Administrative Agent.
13.3. Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent 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 the proper Person. Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the 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, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts 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 experts.
13.4. Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 13 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

13.5. Resignation of Administrative Agent.
13.5.1. Resignation. Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lenders and Borrowers; provided that Bank of America will not resign as Administrative Agent unless otherwise required by law or in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to it; provided, further, that any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock shall continue to be Administrative Agent hereunder without further act on the part of any Secured Party or Obligor. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrowers, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
13.5.2. Removal. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to Borrower Agent and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with Borrowers, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
13.5.3. Effect of Resignation or Removal. With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 5.7.6 and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative 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 13.5). The fees payable by Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 13 and Section 15.2
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
123
shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
13.6. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon any Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
13.7. No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, or a Lender hereunder.
13.8. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.
13.8.1. Authorization. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower or Guarantor, 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 Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a) 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 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 Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and Advances of Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders and Administrative Agent under Sections 3.1.2, 3.4 and 15.2) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b) 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 Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 3.1.2, 3.4 and 15.2.

124
13.8.2. No Reorganization Authorization. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize 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 Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
13.9. Collateral and Guaranty Matters.
13.9.1. Further Authorization. Without limiting the provisions of Section 13.8, Lenders irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion:
(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon Commitment Termination Date and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), (ii) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) subject to Section 15.1, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by Required Lenders; and
(b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 11.2.2.
13.9.2. Confirmation of Release Authority. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, Required Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this Section 13.9.
13.9.3. Reliance. Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Borrower or Guarantor in connection therewith, nor shall Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.
SECTION 14. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS
14.1. Successors and Assigns.

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 Section 14.2 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of Administrative Agent and Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

14.2. Participations.
14.2.1. Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrowers or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or Borrowers or any of Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 15.2.3 without regard to the existence of any participation.
14.2.2. Participation Instruments. 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 to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 15.1.1 that affects such Participant. Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.7, 3.9 and 5.7 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 14.3 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.8 shall be delivered to Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 14.3; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 5.10, 14.4 and 15.13 as if it were an assignee pursuant to Section 14.3 and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.7, 3.9 and 5.7, with respect to any participation, than Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at Borrowers’ request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.10.1 or 5.10.2, with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.4 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.1.10 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c)

126
of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
14.2.3. Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Borrower Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
14.3. Assignments.
14.3.1. Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(a) the aggregate amount of the Commitments retained by Bank of America, N.A., as Lender, is at least 50.1% of all Commitments
(b)
(i) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in clause (ii) below in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund administered or managed by a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(ii) in any case not described in clause (i) above, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower Agent otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(c) Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
127
(d) No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (b)(ii) above and, in addition:
(i) the consent of Borrower Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) required pursuant to clause (b)(ii) above shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and provided, further, that consent of Borrower Agent shall not be required during the primary syndication of the credit facility provided herein; and
(ii) the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund administered or managed by a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender.
(e) The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(f) No such assignment shall be made (i) to any Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of any Borrower, (ii) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (ii), or (iii) to a natural Person.
(g) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrower Agent and Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this clause (g), then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
14.3.2. Accession; Survival. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 14.3.3, from and after the effective date specified in
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
128
each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, 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 Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption 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 3.7, 3.9, 5.7, 5.10.1, 5.10.2 and 15.2 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a Borrower Note(s) to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 14.3.2 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 Section 14.2.
14.3.3. Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Administrative Agent and 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. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
14.4. Replacement of Certain Lenders.
14.4.1. Replacement. If Borrowers are entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.10, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then Borrower Agent may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 14.1), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.7 and 5.7) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
(a) Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 14.1;
(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.9) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
129
(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.7 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.7, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(d) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws; and
(e) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

(a) waive any condition set forth in Section 6, without the written consent of each Lender;
(b) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 12.2) without the written consent of such Lender;
(c) postpone or extend any date fixed by or any Loan Document for any payment (including Mandatory Prepayments) of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document or postpone or extend any scheduled Commitment reduction without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
(d) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or (subject to clause (ii) of the proviso to this clause (d)) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender entitled to such amount; provided, however, that only the consent of Required Lenders shall be necessary (i) to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of any Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate or (ii) to amend any financial covenant hereunder (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or to reduce any fee payable hereunder;

and provided, further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent under any Loan Document; and (ii) the Agent Commitment Document may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Borrowers shall indemnify the Indemnitees against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including Borrowers and other Obligor) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including in respect of any matters addressed in Section 5.7), (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Notice related in any way to Borrowers or other Obligor, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Obligor, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by any Borrower or any other Obligor against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if Borrowers or any other Obligor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.7, this Section 15.2.2 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
15.2.3. To the extent that Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 3.4 or 15.2.2 to be paid by it to Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any of its Related Parties, each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the aggregate Outstanding Amount at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender), such payment to be made severally among them based on such Lenders’ Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought), provided, further that, the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or against any Related Party acting for Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of Lenders under this Section 15.2.3 are subject to the provisions of Section 5.1.6.
15.2.4. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, and acknowledge that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive

132
damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Section 15.2.2 above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
15.2.5. All amounts due under this Section 15.2 shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor.
15.2.6. The agreements in this Section 15.2 and the indemnity provisions herein shall survive the resignation of Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the aggregate Outstanding Amount and Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.
15.3. Notices and Communications.
15.3.1. Notice Address. All notices and other communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Borrower, at Borrower Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Loan Document Effective Date, at the address shown on its Assignment and Assumption), or at such other address as a party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 15.3. Each communication shall be effective only (a) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to the applicable address; or (c) if given by Personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to Agent pursuant to Sections 2.4, 3.5, 3.7, 3.9, 4.1, 5.2, 5.7, 5.10.1, 11.1.1, 13.2 and 14.3 shall be effective until actually received by the individual to whose attention at Agent such notice is required to be sent. Any written communication that is not sent in conformity with the foregoing provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the noticed party. Any notice received by Borrower Agent shall be deemed received by all Borrowers.
15.3.2. Electronic Communications; Voice Mail. Electronic mail and internet websites may be used only for routine communications, such as delivery of Borrower Materials, administrative matters, and distribution of Loan Documents. Administrative Agent and Lenders make no assurances as to the privacy and security of electronic communications. Electronic and voice mail may not be used as effective notice under the Loan Documents.
15.3.3. Platform. Borrowers hereby acknowledge that (a) Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Lenders the Borrower Materials by posting the Borrower Materials on Debt Domain, IntraLinks, Syndtrak or another similar
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
133
electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Borrowers or their Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. Borrowers hereby agree that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent and Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Borrowers or their securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 15.13); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.” THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Borrowers, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Borrowers’, any other Obligor’s or Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet; except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment has determined that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arising out of Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party.
15.3.4. Non-Conforming Communications. Agents and Lenders may rely upon any communications purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower even if they were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not confirmed, or if the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from a later confirmation. Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses arising from any electronic or telephonic communication purportedly given by or on behalf of a Borrower.
15.4. Performance of Borrowers’ Obligations. Each Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at Borrowers’ expense, pay any amount or do any act required of a Borrower under any Loan Documents or otherwise lawfully and reasonably requested by Administrative Agent to (a) enforce any Loan Documents or collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
134
of Collateral Agent’s Liens in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien. All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of any Agent under this Section 15.4 shall be reimbursed to such Agent by Borrowers on demand, with interest from the date incurred until paid in full, at the Default Rate applicable to Loans. Any payment made or action taken by Agents under this Section 15.4 shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.
15.5. Credit Inquiries. Administrative Agent and Lenders may (but shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Obligor.
15.6. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law. If any provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.
15.7. Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms. The provisions of the Loan Documents are cumulative. The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several limitations or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided. Except as otherwise provided in another Loan Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document, the provision herein shall govern and control.
15.8. Counterparts; Execution. Any Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall become effective when Administrative Agent has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto. Delivery of a signature page of any Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement.
15.9. Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption or in any amendment or other modification hereof (including waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
15.10. Entire Agreement. Time is of the essence with respect to all Loan Documents and Obligations. The Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, among the parties relating to the subject matter thereof.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
135
15.11. Relationship with Lenders. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender. Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt. It shall not be necessary for Administrative Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes. Nothing in this Agreement and no action of Administrative Agent, Lenders or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute Administrative Agent and any Secured Party to be a partnership, joint venture or similar arrangement, nor to constitute control of any Obligor.
15.12. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, Borrowers and each Obligor acknowledge and agree, and acknowledges their respective Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents and Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrowers and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents and Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of Borrowers have consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) Borrowers are capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Agents and each Lender are and have been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Agents nor any Lender have any obligation to Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Agents and Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrowers and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Agents nor any Lender have any obligation to disclose any of such interests to Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Agents or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
15.13. Confidentiality. Each of Agents and Lenders shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information, except that Information may be disclosed (except and to the extent restricted by any letter agreement entered into on the date hereof) (a) to its Affiliates, and to its and their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (provided such Persons are informed of the confidential nature of the Information and instructed to keep it confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates; (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or other legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Documents or Obligations; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as this Section 15.13, to any transferee or any actual or prospective party (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to an Obligor or an Obligor’s obligations; (g) with the consent of Borrower Agent; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 15.13 or (ii) is available to any Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
136
source other than Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent and Lenders may publish or disseminate general information (but not details concerning individual Underlying Financings) concerning this credit facility for league table, tombstone and advertising purposes, and may use any Borrower’s logos, trademarks or product photographs in advertising materials. As used herein, “Information” means all information received from an Obligor or Underlying Borrower relating to it or its business that is not identified as being Public when delivered. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information pursuant to this Section 15.13 shall be deemed to have complied if it exercises a degree of care similar to that which it accords its own confidential information. Each of Agents and Lenders acknowledges that (x) Information may include material non-public information; (y) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information; and (z) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law.
15.14. GOVERNING LAW. UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES EXCEPT SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW AND FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS.
15.15. Consent to Forum.
15.15.1. Forum.

EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ALL CLAIMS, OBJECTIONS AND DEFENSES THAT IT MAY HAVE REGARDING ANY SUCH COURT’S PERSONAL OR SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS. WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO ANY OTHER MODE OF SERVICE, EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS CORPORATION SERVICE COMPANY AS ITS AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK; EACH BORROWER AGREES THAT FAILURE BY ITS AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS TO NOTIFY SUCH BORROWER OF THE SERVICE OF PROCESS WILL NOT INVALIDATE THE PROCEEDINGS CONCERNED; AND EACH BORROWER CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS RELATING TO ANY SUCH PROCEEDINGS BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED, CERTIFIED OR FIRST CLASS MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO SUCH BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN. A final judgment in any proceeding of any such court shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or any other manner provided by Applicable Law.
Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)
137
15.15.2. Other Jurisdictions. Nothing herein shall limit the right of Administrative Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against any Borrower in any other court, nor limit the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to preclude enforcement by Agents of any judgment or order obtained in any forum or jurisdiction.
15.16. Waivers by each Borrower.

Each Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to Administrative Agent and Lenders entering into this Agreement and that they are relying upon the foregoing in their dealings with Borrowers. Each Borrower has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with legal counsel. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.
15.17. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act , it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act. Borrowers shall, promptly following a request by Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

Amended & Restated Loan Agreement (PF)

On the A&R Effective Date, the loan facility described in the Original Loan Agreement shall be amended, supplemented, modified and restated in its entirety by the facility described herein, and all Obligations of Borrowers outstanding as of such A&R Effective Date shall be deemed to be Obligations under the Loan Facility, without any further action by any Person.
