FIRST AMENDMENT OF CREDIT AGREEMENT
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT OF CREDIT AGREEMENT (this "AMENDMENT") is entered into
to be effective as of February 26, 1999, between PROTECTION ONE ALARM
MONITORING, INC., a Delaware corporation ("BORROWER"), each of the banks or
other lending institutions which is a signatory to this Amendment (collectively,
"LENDERS"), NATIONSBANK, N.A., a national banking association, as Administrative
Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors in such
capacity, "ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT"), FIRST UNION NATIONAL BANK, a national banking
association, as Syndication Agent (in such capacity, together with its
successors in such capacity, "SYNDICATION AGENT"), and TORONTO DOMINION (TEXAS),
INC., as Documentation Agent (in such capacity, together with its successors in
such capacity, "DOCUMENTATION AGENT").
R E C I T A L S
A. Borrower, Lenders, Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent, and
Documentation Agent are parties to the Credit Agreement dated as of December 21,
1998 (as renewed, extended, modified, and amended from time to time, the "CREDIT
AGREEMENT"), providing for a $500,000,000 line of credit.
B. Capitalized terms used herein shall, unless otherwise indicated, have
the respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.
C. Borrower, Lenders, Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent, and
Documentation Agent desire to modify certain provisions contained in the Credit
Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower, Lenders, Administrative
Agent, Syndication Agent, and Documentation Agent agree as follows:
1. AMENDMENTS TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.
(a) SECTION 1.1 is hereby amended to add the following definitions:
DOLLAR-EQUIVALENT, at any time, means, (a) any amount denominated in
Dollars, and (b) for any amount denominated in a Foreign Currency, an
amount of Dollars into which Administrative Agent determines that it could
convert the relevant amount of that Foreign Currency by using the
applicable-quoted-spot rate reported on the appropriate page of the Reuters
Screen at 11:00 a.m. (London time) three (3) Business Days before the day
on which the calculation is made.
FOREIGN CURRENCY means any freely-convertible lawful currency
acceptable to Administrative Agent, so long as (a) such currency is dealt
with in the London interbank deposit market, (b) such currency is freely
transferable and convertible into Dollars in the London foreign exchange
market, and (c) no central bank or other governmental authorization in the
country of issue of such currency is required to permit use of such
currency by Administrative Agent for issuing LCs or honoring drafts
presented under LCs in such currency; PROVIDED THAT if, after the issuance
of an LC in a Foreign Currency, the Foreign Currency denominated in such LC
ceases to be lawful currency freely-convertible into Dollars and is
replaced by a European single or common currency (the "EURO"), then
thereafter the Foreign Currency for purposes of such LC shall be the Euro.
(b) SECTION 1.1 is hereby amended to delete the definition of "LC
Exposure" in its entirety and replace such definition with the following:
LC EXPOSURE means, at any time and without duplication, the SUM
of (a) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate undrawn portion of all
uncanceled and unexpired LCs, PLUS (b) the Dollar Equivalent of the
aggregate unpaid reimbursement obligations of Borrower in respect of
drawings of drafts under any LC; PROVIDED THAT LC Exposure shall
exclude the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate undrawn portion of any
uncanceled or unexpired LCs that have been cash collateralized or for
which back-up letters of credit have been provided pursuant to
SECTION 2.2.
(c) SECTION 2.2 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:
2.2 LC SUBFACILITY.
(a) CONDITIONS. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and applicable Law, Administrative Agent agrees to issue LCs upon
Borrower's application therefor (denominated in Dollars or, upon Borrower's
request and subject to this SECTION 2.2, in a Foreign Currency) by
delivering to Administrative Agent a properly completed Notice of LC and an
LC Agreement with respect thereto no later than 10:00 a.m. Dallas, Texas
time three (3) Business Days before such LC is to be issued; PROVIDED THAT
(i) on any date of determination and after giving effect to any LC to be
issued on such date, the Commitment Usage (calculated at the then-current
Dollar-Equivalent of such amount) shall never exceed the Total Commitment
then in effect, (ii) on any date of determination and after giving effect
to any LC to be issued on such date, the LC Exposure (calculated at the
then-current Dollar-Equivalent of such amount) shall never exceed
$25,000,000, (iii) at the time of issuance of such LC, no Potential Default
or Default shall exist, (iv) each LC requested by Borrower must be in an
amount not less than $1,000,000 (or, in the case of an LC denominated in a
Foreign Currency, the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000), and (v) each LC
must expire NO LATER than the EARLIER of the fifteenth (15th) day prior to
the Termination Date or one (1) year from its issuance; PROVIDED THAT any
LC may provide for automatic renewal for successive twelve (12) month
periods (but no renewal period may extend beyond the fifteenth (15th) day
prior to the Termination Date) unless Administrative Agent has given prior
notice to the applicable beneficiary of its election not to extend such LC.
(b) PARTICIPATION. Immediately upon the issuance by Administrative
Agent of any LC, Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have sold and
transferred to each other Lender, and each other such Lender shall be
deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from
Administrative Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest
and participation, to the extent of such Lender's Pro Rata Part, in such LC
(calculated from time to time at the Dollar-Equivalent of such LC), and all
Rights of Administrative Agent in respect thereof (OTHER THAN Rights to
receive certain fees provided for in SECTION 2.2(c)). Upon the issuance,
renewal, or extension of an LC, Administrative Agent shall provide copies
of such LC to each other Lender.
(c) REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION. In order to induce Administrative
Agent to issue and maintain LCs and Lenders to participate therein,
Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent (i) on the date on
which Administrative Agent notifies Borrower of the date and amount of any
draft presented under any LC, the amount in Dollars (calculated at the
then-current Dollar-
-2-
Equivalent of such amount) of any draft paid or to be paid by
Administrative Agent, and (ii) promptly, upon demand, the amount of
any fees (in addition to the fees described in SECTION 5) which
Administrative Agent customarily charges to a Person similarly situated in
the ordinary course of its business for amending LC Agreements, for
honoring drafts, and taking similar action in connection with letters of
credit; PROVIDED THAT (A) if Borrower has not reimbursed Administrative
Agent for any drafts paid or to be paid within twenty-four (24) hours of
demand therefor by Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent is
hereby irrevocably authorized to fund such reimbursement obligations in
Dollars (calculated at the then-current Dollar-Equivalent of such amount)
as a Borrowing under the Facility to the extent of availability under the
Facility, and the proceeds of such Borrowing under the Facility shall be
advanced directly to Administrative Agent in payment of Borrower's
reimbursement obligation with respect to the draft under the LC, and (B) if
for any reason, funds are not advanced pursuant to the Facility, then
Borrower's reimbursement obligation shall continue to be due and payable.
Borrower's obligations under this SECTION 2.2(c) shall be absolute and
unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any
setoff, counterclaim, or defense to payment which Borrower may have at any
time against Administrative Agent (except to the extent resulting from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent) or any
other Person, and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions
of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation,
any of the following circumstances: (1) any lack of validity or
enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; (2) the
existence of any claim, setoff, defense, or other Right which Borrower may
have at any time against a beneficiary named in a LC, any transferee of any
LC (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Credit
Party (except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Credit Party), or any other Person, whether in
connection with this Agreement, any LC, the transactions contemplated
herein, or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction
between Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such LC); (3) any draft,
certificate, or any other document presented under the LC proving to be
forged, fraudulent, invalid, or insufficient in any respect or any
statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; and (4) the
occurrence of any Potential Default or Default. To the extent any funding
of a draft has been made by Lenders pursuant to SECTION 2.2(e) or under the
Facility, Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute any such payments
received from Borrower with respect to such draft to all Lenders funding
such draft according to their Pro Rata Part. Interest on any amounts
remaining unpaid by Borrower (and unfunded by a Borrowing under the
Facility) under this CLAUSE at any time from and after the date such
amounts become payable until paid in full shall be payable by Borrower to
Administrative Agent at the Default Rate. In the event any payment by
Borrower received by Administrative Agent with respect to an LC and
distributed to Lenders on account of their participations therein is
thereafter set aside, avoided, or recovered from Administrative Agent in
connection with any receivership, liquidation, or bankruptcy proceeding,
each Lender which received such distribution shall, upon demand by
Administrative Agent, contribute to Administrative Agent such Lender's
ratable portion of the amount (calculated at the then-current
Dollar-Equivalent of such amount) set aside, avoided, or recovered,
together with interest at the rate required to be paid by Administrative
Agent upon the amount required to be repaid by it.
(d) GENERAL. If any draft shall be presented for honor under any
LC, then Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower of the date
and amount (calculated at the then-current Dollar-Equivalent of such
amount) of such draft; PROVIDED THAT failure to give any such notice shall
not affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder. Administrative Agent
shall make payment upon presentment of a draft for honor unless it appears
that presentment on its face does not comply
-3-
with the terms of such LC, regardless of whether (i) any default or
potential default under any other agreement has occurred, and
(ii) the obligations under any other agreement have been performed
by the beneficiary or any other Person (and Administrative Agent
shall not be liable for any obligation of any Person thereunder).
The Credit Parties shall not be responsible for, and Borrower's
reimbursement obligations for honored drafts shall not be affected
by, any matter or event whatsoever (including, without limitation,
the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereof,
even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any respect invalid,
fraudulent, or forged), or any dispute among any Company, the beneficiary
of any LC, or any other Person to whom any LC may be transferred, or any
claims whatsoever of any Company against any beneficiary of any LC or any
such transferee; PROVIDED THAT nothing in this Agreement shall constitute a
waiver of Borrower's Rights to assert any claim based upon the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of any Credit Party.
(e) OBLIGATION OF LENDERS. If Borrower fails to reimburse
Administrative Agent as provided in SECTION 2.2(c) within twenty-four
(24) hours after receiving notice of a draft pursuant to SECTION 2.2(d),
then Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such
failure, of the date and amount (calculated at the then-current
Dollar-Equivalent of such amount) of the draft paid, and of such Lender's
Pro Rata Part thereof. Each Lender shall promptly and unconditionally make
available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds such
Lender's Pro Rata Part of such unpaid reimbursement obligation (calculated
at the then-current Dollar-Equivalent of such amount), which funds shall be
paid to Administrative Agent on or before the close of business on the
Business Day on which such notice was given by Administrative Agent (if
given at or prior to 1:00 p.m., Dallas, Texas time) or on the next
succeeding Business Day (if notice was given after 1:00 p.m., Dallas, Texas
time). All such amounts payable by any such Lender shall include interest
thereon accruing at the Federal Funds Rate from the day the applicable
draft is paid by Administrative Agent to (but not including) the date such
amount is paid by such Lender to Administrative Agent. The obligations of
Lenders to make payments to Administrative Agent with respect to LCs shall
be irrevocable and are not subject to any qualification or exception
whatsoever (other than the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of
Administrative Agent) and shall be made in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without
limitation, any of the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or
enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; (ii) the
existence of any claim, setoff, defense, or other Right which Borrower may
have at any time against a beneficiary named in a LC, any transferee of any
LC (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Credit
Party, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any
LC, the transactions contemplated herein, or any unrelated transactions
(including any underlying transaction between Borrower and the beneficiary
named in any such LC); (iii) any draft, certificate, or any other document
presented under the LC proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid, or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
inaccurate in any respect; and (iv) the occurrence of any Potential Default
or Default.
(f) DELIVERY AND CANCELLATION. Borrower acknowledges that each LC
will be deemed issued upon delivery to its beneficiary or Borrower. If
Borrower requests any LC be delivered to Borrower rather than the
beneficiary, and Borrower subsequently cancels such LC, then Borrower
agrees to return it to Administrative Agent together with Borrower's
written certification that it has never been delivered to such beneficiary.
If any LC is delivered to its beneficiary pursuant to Borrower's
instructions, then no cancellation thereof by Borrower shall be effective
without written consent of such beneficiary to Administrative Agent and the
return of such LC to Administrative
-4-
Agent. Borrower hereby agrees that if Administrative Agent becomes
involved in any dispute as a result of Borrower's cancellation of any LC,
then it shall indemnify the Credit Parties for all losses, costs,
damages, expenses, and reasonable attorneys' fees suffered or incurred
by the Credit Parties as a direct result thereof.
(g) DUTIES OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Administrative Agent agrees
with each Lender that it will exercise and give the same care and attention
to each LC as it gives to its other letters of credit, and Administrative
Agent's sole liability to each Lender with respect to such LCs (OTHER THAN
liability arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
Administrative Agent) shall be to distribute promptly to each Lender who
has acquired a participating interest therein such Lender's ratable portion
of any payments made to Administrative Agent by Borrower pursuant to
SECTION 2.2(c). Each Lender and Borrower agree that, in paying any draw
under any LC, Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility to
obtain any document (OTHER THAN any documents required by the respective
LC) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such
document or the authority of the Person delivering any such document. The
Credit Parties and their respective Representatives shall not be liable to
any other Credit Party or any Obligor for the use which may be made of any
LC or for any acts or omissions of any beneficiary thereof in connection
therewith. Any action, inaction, error, delay, or omission taken or
suffered by Administrative Agent or any of its Representatives under or in
connection with any LC, the draws, drafts, or documents relating thereto,
or the transmission, dispatch, or delivery of any message or advice related
thereto, if in good faith and in conformity with such Laws as
Administrative Agent or any of its Representatives may deem applicable and
in accordance with the standards of care specified in the UNIFORM CUSTOMS
AND PRACTICE FOR DOCUMENTARY CREDITS issued by the International Chamber of
Commerce, as in effect on the date of issue of such LC, shall be binding
upon Obligors and the Credit Parties and shall not place Administrative
Agent or any of its Representatives under any resulting liability to any
Credit Party or any Obligor. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by
Administrative Agent under or in connection with any LC if taken or omitted
in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct shall not create
for Administrative Agent any resulting liability to any Credit Party or any
Obligor.
(h) CASH COLLATERAL. On the Termination Date or upon any demand
from time to time by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders at any
time while a Default exists, Borrower shall provide to Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, either (i) cash collateral, or
(ii) back-up letters of credit reasonably acceptable to Administrative
Agent, in an aggregate amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the LC
Exposure (calculated at the then-current Dollar-Equivalent of such amount)
existing on the date of such demand. Such cash (and all interest thereon)
and letters of credit shall constitute collateral for all LCs. Any cash
collateral deposited, and all interest earned thereon, shall be held by
Administrative Agent and invested and reinvested at the expense and the
written direction of Borrower, in United States Treasury Bills with
maturities of no more than ninety (90) days from the date of investment.
In the absence of any such direction from Borrower, Administrative Agent
shall invest the funds held in the cash collateral account (so long as the
aggregate amount of such funds exceeds any relevant minimum investment
requirement) in one or more types of investments with such maturities as
Administrative Agent may specify, pending application of such funds on
account of any other Obligation, as the case may be. All such investments
shall be made in Administrative Agent's name for the account of the Credit
Parties, subject to the ownership interest therein of Borrower.
Administrative Agent may liquidate any investment held in the cash
collateral account in order to apply the proceeds of such investment on
account of any of the Obligation if such Obligation is then due and payable
without regard to whether
-5-
such investment has matured and without liability for any penalty or other
fee incurred (with respect to which Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse
Administrative Agent) as a result of such application.
(i) INDEMNIFICATION. IN ADDITION TO AMOUNTS PAYABLE AS ELSEWHERE
PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER HEREBY AGREES TO PROTECT, INDEMNIFY,
PAY, AND SAVE EACH CREDIT PARTY HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL
CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES, OR LOSSES OF, OR OWED TO THIRD
PARTIES, AND ANY AND ALL RELATED COSTS, CHARGES, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING
REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES), WHICH ANY CREDIT PARTY MAY INCUR OR BE SUBJECT
TO AS A CONSEQUENCE, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, OF (A) THE ISSUANCE OF ANY LC, OR
(B) THE FAILURE OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO HONOR A DRAFT UNDER SUCH LC AS A
RESULT OF ANY ACT OR OMISSION, WHETHER RIGHTFUL OR WRONGFUL, OF ANY PRESENT
OR FUTURE GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY; PROVIDED THAT BORROWER SHALL HAVE NO
LIABILITY TO INDEMNIFY ANY CREDIT PARTY IN RESPECT OF ANY LIABILITY ARISING
OUT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH PARTY OR ANY
REPRESENTATIVES OF SUCH PARTY. THE PROVISIONS OF AND UNDERTAKINGS AND
INDEMNIFICATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 2.2(i) SHALL SURVIVE THE
SATISFACTION AND PAYMENT OF THE OBLIGATION AND TERMINATION OF THIS
AGREEMENT.
(j) LC AGREEMENTS. Although referenced in any LC, terms of any
particular agreement or other obligation to the beneficiary are not in any
manner incorporated herein. Drafts under any LC shall be deemed part of
the Obligation. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the
terms of this Agreement and any LC Agreement, the terms of this Agreement
shall be controlling.
2. AMENDMENT OF CREDIT AGREEMENT AND OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
(a) All references in the Loan Documents to the Credit Agreement shall
henceforth include references to the Credit Agreement as modified and amended by
this Amendment, and as may, from time to time, be further modified, amended,
restated, extended, renewed, and/or increased.
(b) Any and all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents are

Obligation, and (c) agrees to perform such acts and duly authorize, execute,

certificates as the Credit Parties may reasonably request in order to create,
perfect, preserve, and protect those guaranties, assurances, and Liens.

performance by Borrower or any other Obligor of the Amendment Documents;
-6-
(c) the Loan Documents, as amended by the Amendment Documents, are valid and
binding upon Borrower and the other Obligors and are enforceable against
Borrower and the other Obligors in accordance with their respective terms,
except as limited by Debtor Relief Laws and general principles of equity; (d)
the execution, delivery, and performance by Borrower and the other Obligors
of the Amendment Documents do not require the consent of any other Person and
do not and will not constitute a violation of any Governmental Requirement,
order of any Governmental Authority, or material agreements to which Borrower
or any other Obligor is a party thereto or by which Borrower or any other
Obligor is bound; (e) all representations and warranties in the Loan
Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date

different specific date, or (ii) the facts on which any of them were based
have been changed by transactions contemplated or permitted by the Credit
Agreement; and (f) both before and after giving effect to the Amendment
Documents, no Potential Default or Default exists.

not be effective unless and until:
(a) the Credit Parties shall have received the Amendment Documents, in
form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent;
(b) the representations and warranties in this Amendment are true and
correct in all material respects on and as of the date of this Amendment, except
to the extent that (i) any of them speak to a different specific date, or (ii)

contemplated or permitted by the Credit Agreement; and
(c) both before and after giving effect to this Amendment, no Potential
Default or Default exists.
