- Re:
- Credit Agreement dated effective as of June 24, 2004 (as amended, modified, restated, or supplemented, the "Agreement") by and among CORNELL COMPANIES, INC. as the Borrower (the "Borrower"), the several lenders party thereto from time to time (the "Lenders"), and the Administrative Agent.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
1. Guarantee. For value received, and in consideration of Borrower entering into the Agreement, the undersigned (collectively, the "Guarantor"), do hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally guarantee (a) payment, when due, of any and all indebtedness and other amounts of every kind, howsoever created, arising, or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, now or hereafter existing or owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, by Borrower under the Notes as defined in the Agreement, (including, without limitation, amounts that would become due but for operation of any applicable provision of Title 11 of the United States Code (including, without limitation, 11 U.S.C. §§ 502 and 506)), together with all pre- and post-maturity interest thereon (including, without limitation, all post-petition interest if Borrower voluntarily or involuntarily files for bankruptcy protection) (all such obligations being hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Liabilities") and (b) the performance by Borrower of its obligations under the Agreement and the Security Documents (the "Loan Papers") pursuant to the terms thereof (the "Obligations"). The Guarantor has a substantial, direct or indirect, financial interest in the benefits and advantages which will result from the Agreement. The Guarantor hereby agrees that, upon any Default, the Guarantor will forthwith pay the Liabilities as limited by this paragraph immediately upon written demand or perform the Obligations.
2. Guarantee Continuing, Absolute, Unlimited. This Guarantee is a continuing, absolute, and unlimited guarantee of payment and the Guarantor is a primary obligor and not a surety. The Liabilities and Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance on this Guarantee. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to proceed first against Borrower or any other person, firm or corporation or against any property securing any of the Liabilities or Obligations before resorting to the Guarantor for payment or performance. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Guarantee shall be construed as a guarantee of payment without regard to the enforceability of any of the Liabilities or Obligations or the rejection of the Agreement in bankruptcy, and notwithstanding any claim, defense (other than payment or performance by Borrower or the Guarantor) or right of setoff which Borrower or the Guarantor may have against any Lender or the Administrative Agent, including any such claim, defense, or right of setoff based on any present or future law or order of any government (de jure or de facto), or of any agency thereof or court of law purporting to reduce, amend, or otherwise affect any of the Liabilities or Obligations of Borrower or any other obligor, or to vary any terms of payment thereof, and without regard to any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor. The Guarantor agrees that this Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent of the Liabilities or any part thereof is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Lender or the Administrative
1
Agent upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of Borrower, or otherwise, as though such payment to such Lender or the Administrative Agent had not been made. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Guarantor's obligation to fully pay or perform the Liabilities and any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall not be impaired, modified, released, or limited in any way by any impairment, modification, release, or limitation of the liability of Borrower or its bankruptcy estate, resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of any debtor relief law or from the decision of any court interpreting the same.
3. Guarantee Not Affected by Change in Security or Other Actions. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may, from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Guarantor, take any or all of the following actions without impairing or affecting (except insofar as the Liabilities are reduced or modified thereby), the Guarantor's obligations under this Guarantee or releasing or exonerating the Guarantor from any of its liabilities hereunder:
(a) retain or obtain a security interest in any property to secure any of the Liabilities or any obligation hereunder;
(b) retain or obtain the primary or secondary liability of any party or parties, in addition to the Guarantor, with respect to any of the Liabilities;
(c) extend the time or change the manner, place or terms of payment of, or renew or amend any note or other instrument evidencing the Liabilities or any part thereof, or amend in any manner any agreement relating thereto, in each case in accordance with the terms of each such agreement;
(d) release or compromise, in whole or in part, or accept full or partial payment for, any of the Liabilities hereby guaranteed, or any liability of any nature of any other party or parties with respect to the Liabilities or any security therefore;
(e) enforce the Administrative Agent's or the Lenders' security interest, if any, in all or any properties securing any of the Liabilities or any obligations hereunder in order to obtain full or partial payment of the Liabilities then outstanding; or
(f) release or fail to perfect, protect, or enforce the Administrative Agent's or the Lenders' security interest, if any, in all or any properties securing any of the Liabilities or any obligation hereunder, or permit any substitution or exchange for any such property.
4. Waivers. The Guarantor hereby expressly waives to the extent permitted by law:
(a) notice of acceptance of this Guarantee;
(b) notice of the existence or incurrence of any or all of the Liabilities in accordance with the Loan Papers;
(c) presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and all other notices whatsoever (except the written demand referred to in Section 1 hereinabove);
(d) any requirement that proceedings first be instituted by the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower;
(e) all diligence in collection or protection of or realization upon the Liabilities or any part thereof, or any obligation hereunder, or any collateral for any of the foregoing;
(f) any rights or defenses based on the Administrative Agent's or a Lender's election of remedies, including any defense to the Administrative Agent's or Lender's action to recover any deficiency after a non-judicial sale; and
2
(g) the occurrence of every other condition precedent to which the Guarantor might otherwise be entitled.
5. Definitions. As used in this Guarantee, capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein will have the meanings given them in the Agreement.
6. Representations, Warranties and Agreements of Guarantor. The Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:
(a) Existence, Good Standing, Authority and Compliance. The Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, organized, or otherwise formed. Except where failure will not have a Material Adverse Effect, the Guarantor (a) is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction where the nature and extent of its business and properties require due qualification and good standing, (b) possesses all requisite authority, permits and power to conduct its business as is now being, or is contemplated by this Guarantee to be, conducted, and (c) is in compliance with all applicable laws, except in each case where the failure to so qualify, to possess such authority, permits or power or to comply with such law would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(b) Authorization and Contravention. The execution and delivery by the Guarantor of this Guarantee or related document to which it is a party and the performance by it of its obligations thereunder (a) are within its corporate, organizational or partnership power, (b) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, organizational, or partnership action, (c) require no action by or filing with any tribunal (other than any action or filing that has been taken or made on or before the date of this Guarantee or which would not cause a material adverse event), (d) do not violate any provision of its charter, bylaws, resolutions, or partnership agreement, (e) do not violate any provision of law or order of any tribunal applicable to it, other than violations that individually or collectively will not have a Material Adverse Effect, (f) do not violate any material agreements to which it is a party, other than a violation which would not have a Material Adverse Effect, (g) do not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than the Lender Liens) on any asset of the Guarantor, (h) are in furtherance of the corporate, organizational, or partnership purposes of the Guarantor and (i) do not require the consent or approval of the shareholders, members, or partners of the Guarantor.
(c) Binding Effect. Upon execution and delivery by all parties thereto, this Guarantee will constitute a legal and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable debtor relief laws and general principles of equity.
(d) Consideration. Guarantor represents and warrants that the value of the consideration received and to be received by it is reasonably worth at least as much as its liability under this Guarantee, and such liability may reasonably be expected to benefit Guarantor directly or indirectly. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY CONTRARY PROVISION IN THIS GUARANTEE, GUARANTOR'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY HEREUNDER IS LIMITED, TO THE EXTENT, IF ANY, REQUIRED SO THAT ITS LIABILITY IS NOT SUBJECT TO AVOIDANCE UNDER ANY DEBTOR RELIEF LAW.
(e) Solvency. As of the date of this Guarantee, the Guarantor is, and after giving effect to this Guarantee, will be, solvent.
7. Events of Default. Events of Default shall be as set forth and defined in the Credit Agreement.
3
8. Remedies Upon Default. Without limiting any other rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders provided for elsewhere in this Guarantee or the Loan Papers, or by any requirement of law, or in equity, or otherwise:
(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Lenders may without any notice to (except as expressly provided herein or in and during the continuance of any Loan Paper) or demand upon Guarantor, which are expressly waived by Guarantor (except as to notices expressly provided for herein or in any Loan Paper), proceed to protect, exercise and enforce the rights and remedies of the Lenders against Guarantor hereunder or under the Loan Papers and such other rights and remedies as are provided by requirement of Law or equity.
(b) The rights provided for in this Guarantee and the Loan Papers are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.
(c) The order and manner in which the Lenders' rights and remedies upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default are to be exercised shall be determined by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, and all payments received by the Administrative Agent shall be applied first to the costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees incurred by the Administrative Agent and Lenders) of the Administrative Agent and Lenders, then to the payment of all accrued and unpaid amounts due under any Loan Papers to and including the date of such application. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no application of payments will cure any Default, or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Papers, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or under any requirement of Law or in equity.
9. Payments. Each payment by the Guarantor to the Administrative Agent under this Guarantee shall be made by transferring the amount thereof in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim.
10. Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Guarantor agrees to pay on demand: (i) all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Guarantee and any other documents to be delivered hereunder, including the reasonable fees and out of pocket expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent as to its rights and responsibilities under this Guarantee, and any modification, supplement or waiver of any of the terms of this Guarantee, (ii) all reasonable costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent hereunder, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent, in connection with a default or the enforcement of this Guarantee and (iii) reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with third party professional services reasonably required by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Papers such as appraisers, environmental consultants, accountants or similar Persons; provided that except during the continuance of any Default hereunder, the Administrative Agent will first obtain the consent of the Guarantor to such expense, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without prejudice to the survival of any other obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, the obligations of the Guarantor under this Section shall survive the termination of this Guarantee.
11. Subrogation. The Guarantor shall not be subrogated to, in whole or in part, and agrees not to exercise any rights of subrogation with respect to, the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or those of any subsequent assignee or transferee of any of the Liabilities until all the Liabilities to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and every such subsequent assignee or transferee shall have been paid in full. The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Guarantee and any satisfaction and discharge of Borrower by virtue of any payment, court order, or law.
4
12. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, or any abandonment or discontinuance of any steps to enforce such right, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. No notice to or demand on the Guarantor in any case shall entitle the Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. The remedies herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law, at equity or in any other agreement.
13. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations, warranties and covenants contained herein or made in writing by the Guarantor in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Guarantee, and the termination of the Loan Papers and will bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto, whether so expressed or not.
14. Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and each Lender agree to keep any information delivered or made available by the Guarantor to it which is clearly indicated to be confidential information, confidential from anyone other than Persons employed or retained by the Administrative Agent who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loan Papers; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from disclosing such information (a) to any Lender, (b) pursuant to subpoena or upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (c) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent or any Lender, (d) which has been publicly disclosed, (e) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower, the Guarantor or their respective Affiliates may be a party, (f) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (g) to any Lender's legal counsel and independent auditors. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Guarantor of any information that it is required or requested to deliver pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section 14 and, if the Guarantor is a party to any such litigation, clause (e) of this Section 14.
15. Separability. Should any clause, sentence, paragraph or Section of this Guarantee be judicially declared to be invalid, unenforceable or void, such decision will not have the effect of invalidating or voiding the remainder of this Guarantee, and the parties hereto agree that the part or parts of this Guarantee so held to be invalid, unenforceable or void will be deemed to have been stricken herefrom and the remainder will have the same force and effectiveness as if such part or parts had never been included herein.
16. Execution in Counterparts. This Guarantee may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
