Article 2
Amounts And Terms Of The Advances
Section 2.01The Advances.
(a)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make one or more loans in Dollars to Borrowers (each, an “Advance”) from time to time during the Availability Period, each in an amount equal to the Requested Amount for such Advance multiplied by such Xxxxxx’s Funding Percentage (up to an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Xxxxxx’s unfunded Commitment), by making immediately available funds available to Administrative Agent on the date of such Advance. After Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds on the date of such advance, and upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Article 4, Administrative Agent shall make such funds as it has received available to Borrowers by depositing such funds into the Funding Account; provided that Administrative Agent shall, at Borrowers’ request, net any Advance due to Borrowers against any amount
36


payable hereunder in accordance with each Xxxxxx’s respective Funding Percentage. Borrowers may, at any time, terminate all or any part of the Commitments by notifying Administrative Agent in writing and making any payments required under Section 2.04.
(b)Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in Article 4 and the other terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, Borrowers may from time to time borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Advances.
Section 2.02Requests For Advances.
(a)(i) To request an Advance, a Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent and each Lender of such request no later than 11:00 a.m. on the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the date of such proposed Advance.
(ii) Notice of a request for each Advance (a “Borrowing Notice”) shall be in writing in substantially the form of Exhibit A, specifying therein: (x) the proposed date of such Advance, which shall be a Business Day, (y) the aggregate amount of such Advance, which shall be an amount not less than $50,000,000 (or if less, the Undrawn Amount), (the “Requested Amount”), and (z) the Funding Account in respect of a Borrower giving such Borrowing Notice. If a Borrowing Notice is not given by the time referred to in Section 2.02(a)(i) above, it shall be deemed to have been given on the next succeeding Business Day.
(b)Each Borrowing Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrowers.
(c)Any delivery of a Borrowing Notice shall be deemed to be a repetition of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 3.
(d)For the avoidance of doubt, each Borrower has the ability to draw on the full amount of any Commitment and the Lenders can rely on a Borrowing Notice from any Borrower without confirming such with the other Borrower.
Section 2.03Termination Of Agreement and Facility. Unless previously terminated, the Commitment shall terminate on the last day of the Availability Period.
Section 2.04Repayment Of Advances.

Section 2.05Interest.
(a)Ordinary Interest. Subject to Section 2.05(b), on each Interest Payment Date, interest on the unpaid principal amount of any Advance, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate, will be added, as of each Interest Payment Date, to the outstanding principal amount of the Advances on a Pro Rata Basis; provided that if (x) Borrowers elect, by written notice to Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days’ prior to any Interest Payment Date to pay all or any portion of the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date in cash or (y) as a result of paying such interest in kind, the Net PIK Amount would exceed the product of the Total Drawn Amount (exclusive of the Net PIK Amount) multiplied by eighteen (18) percent, such interest or the relevant portion thereof will be payable in cash, in arrears, on the relevant Interest Payment Date; provided further that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.05(b) shall be payable in cash within one (1) Business Day of demand and (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Advance, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment. The total amount of interest due on each such day shall be computed by Administrative Agent on the immediately preceding Business Day. The Interest Rate shall be computed by Administrative Agent based on a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed in the Interest Period for which interest is payable; provided that if the Interest Rate is calculated based upon the Prime Rate, the Interest Rate shall be computed by Administrative Agent based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and the actual number of days elapsed in the Interest Period for which interest is payable.
(b)Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may, or upon the request by the Required Lenders, shall, by notice to Borrowers, declare that (i) all Advances shall bear interest at 2% plus the Interest Rate or (ii) in the case of any other amount outstanding hereunder, such amount shall accrue at 2% plus the Interest Rate.
(c)Conforming Changes. In connection with the use or administration of SOFR or Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Margin Loan Documentation, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation.

On the Second Increase Effective Date, Borrowers paid an upfront fee to each Lender in an amount equal to the Upfront Fee Percentage multiplied by the respective Second Incremental Commitment of such Lender (the “Second Incremental Facility Upfront Fee”). The Upfront Fee, the First Incremental Facility Upfront Fee and the Second Incremental Facility Upfront Fee shall be fully earned when paid and shall be non-refundable for any reason whatsoever, and regardless of when or whether the
38

(b)Undrawn Fee. Borrower shall pay each Lender an undrawn fee (the “Undrawn Fee”), which shall accrue on a daily basis on such Lender’s outstanding Commitment from the Closing Date through the last date of the Availability Period at a rate equal to the Undrawn Fee Percentage (regardless of whether the conditions set forth in Article 4 are met on any such day), calculated on the basis of the actual days elapsed and a year of 360 days, and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date in Cash.

Subject to Article 4, any such prepayment may be reborrowed at any time during the Availability Period.
(b)Borrowers shall prepay all obligations in an aggregate amount equal to the Total Accrued Loan Amount on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, the second (2nd) Business Day immediately following notice by Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit G of the occurrence of a Mandatory Prepayment Event; provided that, if the Total Accrued Loan Amount is equal to the accrued and unpaid Undrawn Fee, then Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to require Borrowers to prepay such obligations on the Interest Payment Date immediately following such notice.

If Administrative Agent or any Lender delivers a Collateral Call Notice to Borrowers, Borrowers shall, prior to the Cure Time, either:
(i)(x) voluntarily prepay the Total Accrued Loan Amount and/or (y) deposit Cash and/or Cash Equivalents constituting Acceptable Collateral into the Collateral Accounts on a Pro Rata Basis, collectively in such amount necessary, after giving effect to such prepayment and/or deposit, to cause the LTV Level (determined based on the Aggregate Collateral Share Value as of the date the Collateral Call Trigger Event occurred) to be less than the Maintenance LTV Level; or

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining the Advances hereunder (or of maintaining its Commitment) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then Borrowers will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such reasonable additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Advances 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 and liquidity), then from time to time upon written request from a Lender, 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; provided that no Lender shall be entitled to obtain such compensation unless it is the general policy or practice of such Lender (as determined by such Lender) to request compensation for similar amounts from similar borrowers under comparable provisions of similar loan facilities (to the extent such Lender has the right to request such compensation thereunder).
(c)A certificate of the relevant Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.09(a) or (b) shall be delivered to Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(d)Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.09 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days
44


prior to the date that such Xxxxxx 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; provided further that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
(e)Survival. All of Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 2.09 shall survive termination of the Facility and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
Section 2.10Taxes.
(a)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrowers, as applicable, under any Margin Loan Documentation shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by such withholding agent, then such withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrowers shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.10), each Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(b)Payment of Other Taxes by Borrowers. Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the relevant Lender timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.
(c)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.10, such Borrower shall deliver to the relevant Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to such Lender.
(d)Indemnification by Xxxxxxxxx. Borrowers shall indemnify any Lender, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.10) payable or paid by such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender 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. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by such Xxxxxx prepared in good faith by such Lender or Administrative Agent (or by Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender), accompanied by a written statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)Status of Lender.
(i)If any Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Margin Loan Documentation, it shall deliver to Borrowers, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrowers, such
45


properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, such Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrowers, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrowers as will enable Borrowers 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 2.10(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in such 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.
(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)if such Lender is a U.S. Person, it shall deliver to Borrowers 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 Borrowers), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or successor forms) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding;
(B)if such Lender is a Foreign Lender, it shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Borrowers) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrowers), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)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 Margin Loan Documentation, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor forms) 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 Margin Loan Documentation, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor forms) 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;
(2)executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor forms);
(3)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to any Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”)
46


and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor forms); or
(4)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or successor forms), accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor forms), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9 (or successor forms), and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Borrowers) 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 Borrowers), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrowers to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)if a payment made to any Lender under any Margin Loan Documentation would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrowers at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrowers such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers as may be necessary for Borrowers to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Xxxxxx’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
If a Lender is a different entity than Administrative Agent, such Xxxxxx also agrees to share with Administrative Agent a copy of any Tax form or documentation it provided to Borrowers, and the requirements to deliver any Tax form or documentation to Borrowers shall apply mutatis mutandis to the delivery of such form of documentation to Administrative Agent. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrowers in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(f)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes (including any Tax credit in lieu of refund) as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.10 (including by the
47


payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.10 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such Lender, shall repay to such Lender the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will such Lender be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Lender 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 giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(g)Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, (i) for any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Xxxxxx’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.07(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, in connection with any Margin Loan Documentation, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Margin Loan Documentation or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.10(g).
(h)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.10 shall survive the assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, Lender, the termination of the Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Margin Loan Documentation.
(i)Borrower Tax Forms. Each Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent, upon reasonable request, an applicable IRS Form W-8 or W-9 indicating its U.S. tax status and/or any other Tax form or other documentation that will avoid or minimize any withholding Tax upon receipt of any payment from a foreclosure sale or other disposition of, or otherwise with respect to, any Collateral.
(j)Administrative Agent Tax Forms. On or prior to the date on which the Administrative Agent becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and, to the extent it remains legally entitled to do so, from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrowers), the Administrative Agent will deliver to Borrowers either (i) executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that Administrative Agent is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax or (ii) (x) with respect to any amounts received on its
48


own account, an executed copy of an applicable IRS Form W-8 (or any successor form) and (y) with respect to any amounts received for or on account of any Lender, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8 IMY (or any successor form) certifying that it is a U.S. branch that has agreed to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal tax purposes or a “qualified intermediary” and assuming primary withholding responsibility under Chapters 3 and 4 of the Code and primary IRS Form 1099 reporting and backup withholding responsibility with respect to payments received by it from Borrowers in its capacity as Administrative Agent, as applicable. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers at any time that it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide the certification described in the immediately preceding sentence.
Section 2.11Illegality.
(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify Borrowers that any Law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to perform its obligations to make or maintain Advances hereunder, the obligation of such Lender to make the Advances shall be terminated and all of such Xxxxxx’s Advances, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to such Lender shall become due and payable either on the last day of the then current Interest Period, if such Xxxxxx may lawfully continue to maintain the Advances to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain the Advances.
(b)If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Advances whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR or Term SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR or Term SOFR, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers (through the Administrative Agent) (such notice, an “Illegality Notice”), (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue SOFR Advances or to convert Base Rate Advances to SOFR Advances shall be suspended, and (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Advances the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, in each case, until such Xxxxxx notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrowers shall prepay or, if applicable, convert all SOFR Advances to Base Rate Advances (the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Advance to such day, or immediately, if all affected Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Advance, in each case, until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by each affected Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or Term SOFR. Upon any such prepayment or conversion following receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.09.
Section 2.12Break-Funding. In the event of the payment of any principal of an Advance other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), or the failure to borrow, continue or prepay any Advance on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, Borrowers shall upon
49


demand compensate any Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of an Advance, such loss, cost or expense to such Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Advance had such event not occurred, at the reference interest rate that would have been applicable to such Advance, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow or continue, for the period that would have been the initial Interest Period for such Advance), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of such Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be delivered to Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. All of Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 2.12 shall survive termination of the Facility or repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
Section 2.13Evidence Of Debt.
(a)Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to Xxxxxx from time to time hereunder. Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Advance made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder, and (iii) the amount of any sum received by Administrative Agent hereunder from each Borrower and each Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.
(b)The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.13(a) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided that the failure of any Lender or Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrowers to repay such obligations in accordance with their terms.
(c)No promissory note shall be required to evidence the Advances by any Lender to Borrowers. Upon the request of any Lender, Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note, payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by such Lender, which shall evidence the Advances to Borrowers by such Xxxxxx in addition to such records. Thereafter, the Advances evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.
Section 2.14Payments And Computations.
(a)All payments to be made by Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the day when due in Dollars to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender its share, determined on a Pro Rata Basis (or other applicable basis as provided herein), of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender. All payments received by Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. New York City time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.
50


(b)Whenever any payment hereunder would be due on a day other than a Business Day (except in the case of a payment made to cure a Collateral Call Trigger Event), such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or any fees, as the case may be.
(c)All payments (including prepayments and any other amounts received hereunder in connection with the exercise of any Lender’s rights after an Event of Default) made by Borrowers to Administrative Agent under any Margin Loan Documentation shall be applied to amounts then due and payable, ratably in accordance with the percentage of any such amounts owed to each Lender, in the following order: (i) to any expenses and indemnities payable by Borrowers to Lenders or Agents under any Margin Loan Documentation; (ii) to any accrued and unpaid interest and fees due under this Agreement; (iii) to principal payments on the outstanding Advances; and (iv) to the extent of any excess, to the payment of all other Obligations under the Margin Loan Documentation.
Section 2.15Accelerating Lenders.
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (but subject to clause (b) below), if one or more Lenders become Accelerating Lenders:
(i)each Accelerating Lender, solely for purposes of determining the rights and obligations of such Lender vis a vis Borrowers, shall be deemed to be:
(A)Administrative Agent and Calculation Agent hereunder; and
(B)the sole Lender hereunder for all purposes and, for the avoidance of doubt, no other Lender’s consent shall be necessary for any modification of such rights and obligations; and
(ii)solely for purposes of determining the rights and obligations of all Lenders that are not Accelerating Lenders among themselves and vis a vis Borrowers:
(A)each Accelerating Lender shall be deemed to no longer be a Lender hereunder and, for the avoidance of doubt, such Accelerating Lender’s consent shall not be necessary for any modification of such rights and obligations; and
(B)if Administrative Agent or Calculation Agent is an Accelerating Lender, a replacement therefor shall be selected from among Lenders that are not Accelerating Lenders as if such Agent had resigned.
(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, following one or more Lenders becoming Accelerating Lenders, no Borrower, for the avoidance of doubt, shall make any payments of its Obligations or post any Collateral except on a Pro Rata Basis (without regard to Section 2.15(a)). For the avoidance of doubt, the application of proceeds received by an Applicable Lender in respect of an exercise of its remedies under the Margin Loan Documentation shall not be considered a payment by Borrowers for purposes of this Section 2.15(b).
Section 2.16Periodic Rebalancing.
51


(a)Subject to Section 2.15, if as of any Interest Payment Date, following the making of any Advance or following any repayment or prepayment of any Advance, the Collateral is not held on a Pro Rata Basis for any reason, then on, or as promptly as practicable following, such Interest Payment Date, the making of such Advance or such repayment or prepayment, the Applicable Lenders shall cause any transfers of Collateral from the Collateral Accounts that they control to Collateral Accounts controlled by other Applicable Lenders as may be necessary, as determined by Administrative Agent, to ensure that the Collateral is held on a Pro Rata Basis. Each Applicable Xxxxxx agrees to cooperate in good faith with Administrative Agent to effect such rebalancing, including, for the avoidance of doubt, by submitting written instructions to each Custodian to effect such transfers. Each Borrower hereby consents to such transfers. For the avoidance of doubt, any rebalancing pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall not occur with respect to Incremental Commitments until Advances in respect of such Incremental Commitments are made.
(b)In connection with the extension of any new Advances under Section 2.01 or any transfer of Collateral Shares to a Collateral Account pursuant to this Section 2.16 or otherwise, Borrowers shall comply and use reasonable efforts to cause each Custodian to comply, with any request of the Applicable Lender that controls such Collateral Account or is making such new Advances, as the case may be, to transfer such Collateral Shares or any Collateral Shares securing such new Advances, as the case may be, to a separate sub-account under the relevant Collateral Account controlled by such Applicable Lender.
Section 2.17Increase in Commitments.
(a)Borrowers Request. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrowers may, during the Availability Period, on one or more occasions, by written notice to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each Lender), elect to enter into an Incremental Facility Amendment and request additional commitments to make Advances hereunder in an amount not in excess of the Incremental Cap (such requested additional commitments, “Proposed Incremental Commitments”). Except as Borrowers and any Lender may separately agree, no Lender shall be obligated to provide any Proposed Incremental Commitment, and the determination to provide any Proposed Incremental Commitment shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of each Lender and shall be binding on any Lender only upon execution of the relevant Incremental Facility Amendment. Borrowers shall be obligated to offer the opportunity to each existing Lender to participate in any Proposed Incremental Commitment, in an amount up to each such existing Lender’s Incremental Commitment Percentage multiplied by the amount of such Proposed Incremental Commitment, before making any offer to any prospective Additional Lender to participate in such Proposed Incremental Commitment, and to hold such offer to each existing Lender open for a period of ten (10) Business Days. If Lenders decline to participate in such Proposed Incremental Commitment sufficient in the aggregate to achieve the full amount of such Proposed Incremental Commitment (it being understood that Lenders may elect to participate in only a portion of such Proposed Incremental Commitment), then Borrowers may establish Commitments for new Lenders in an amount up to the Proposed Incremental Commitment after taking into account any portion of the Proposed Incremental Commitment in which Lenders elected to participate, provided that each new Lender (1) is (a) an Approved Lender, (b) an Affiliate of any Lender (other than a special purpose vehicle, securitization vehicle or other similar Person) or (c) an Approved Fund of any Lender, (2) is not a natural person, a Borrower or an of Affiliate of a Borrower and (3) makes the Purchaser Representations for the benefit of each existing Lender (any such new Lender, an “Additional Lender”). Each existing Lender or Additional Lender providing a portion of any Incremental Commitment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent and Borrowers all
52


such documentation (including the relevant Incremental Facility Amendment) as may be reasonably required by Administrative Agent to evidence and effectuate such Incremental Commitment, and Administrative Agent shall update Schedule I hereto to that effect. On the effective date of such Incremental Commitment, the Additional Lenders shall become Lenders for all purposes in connection with this Agreement.
(b)Terms of Incremental Facility Amendment. The terms and provisions of Incremental Commitments shall be as set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment and shall be substantially identical to the terms and conditions of the other Commitments and the other analogous Margin Loan Documentation; provided that the Spread with respect to Incremental Commitments may be lower. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to enter into any Incremental Facility Amendment and/or any amendment to any other Margin Loan Documentation as may be necessary in order to establish classes or sub-classes in respect of the Advances or commitments pursuant to this Section 2.17 and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent and Borrowers (i) in connection with the establishment of such classes or sub-classes, in each case, on terms consistent with this Section 2.17 and (ii) to ensure, at the option of the Borrowers, that any Advances pursuant to Incremental Commitments are “fungible” with other Advances. Lenders further hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to enter into any Incremental Facility Amendment and/or any other Margin Loan Documentation to effect the provisions of this Section 2.17, including (i) the pledge of the Collateral to secure Borrowers’ obligations in connection with such Incremental Facility Amendment or (ii) the establishment of one or more separate Collateral Accounts with the Custodian, and will cooperate in transferring the Collateral to any such accounts to ensure that the Collateral is held on a Pro Rata Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, any transfer of the Collateral shall not occur with respect to Incremental Commitments until Advances in respect of such Incremental Commitments are made.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and any applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, each existing Lender and any Additional Lender with an Incremental Commitment agrees to make Advances in Dollars to Borrowers up to the amount of such existing Lender’s Incremental Commitment and Additional Lender’s Incremental Commitment, respectively, as set forth in such Incremental Facility Amendment, by making immediately available funds available to Administrative Agent on the date of such Advance.
Borrowers shall notify the Lenders in writing of any proposed Incremental Facility Amendment at least five (5) Business Days prior to its execution, and each Lender shall notify Borrowers within two (2) Business Days of confirmed receipt by such Lender of such written notice whether such Lender deems such proposed Incremental Facility Amendment to be a material amendment adversely affecting the rights of such Lender in the Collateral (a “Material Amendment”).
This Section 2.17(b) shall supersede any provision in Section 9.01 to the contrary.
(c)Equal and Ratable Benefit. The Incremental Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall constitute loans and Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, the Margin Loan Documentation, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the security interests created by the relevant Margin Loan Documentation. The Borrowers shall take any actions reasonably required by Administrative Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Lien and security interests granted by the relevant
53


Margin Loan Documentation continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any Incremental Commitments.
Section 2.18Benchmark Replacement Setting.
(a)Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Margin Loan Documentation, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Margin Loan Documentation in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement is Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.
(b)Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Margin Loan Documentation, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation.
(c)Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.18(d) and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.18, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.18.
(d)Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Margin Loan Documentation, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not
54


displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the administrator of such Benchmark or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
(e)Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrowers may revoke any request for a SOFR Advance of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Advances to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for the borrowings of or conversion to Base Rate Advances. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.
Section 2.19Erroneous Payments.
(a)If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender (any such Lender or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(b)Without limiting the immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment,
55


prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:
(i)(A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and
(ii)such Lender shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.19(b).
(c)Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Margin Loan Documentation, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.
(d)In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Advances (but not its Commitments) of the relevant class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Advances (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrowers) deemed to execute and deliver an agreement necessary to effectuate such assignment (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating such assignment by reference pursuant to an electronic platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (iv) the
56


Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Advances subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Advances acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Advance (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold an Advance (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Secured Party under any Margin Loan Documentation with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).
(e)The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrowers, except, in each case, to the extent that such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment (“Loan Party Funds”) unless the Borrowers elect in their sole discretion (which election evidenced by a written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent) that such Loan Party Funds are deemed not to have been applied to discharge all or any portion of the Erroneous Payment.
(f)To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.
(g)Each Lender, other Payment Recipient, the Administrative Agent and each Borrower hereby agrees that, if an Erroneous Payment has been made with Loan Party Funds, then no Default, Event of Default or Mandatory Prepayment Event shall have occurred or be continuing as a result of any delay in any payment that is required under any Margin Loan Documentation solely to the extent arising as a result of the Erroneous Payment until the Erroneous Payment made with Loan Party Funds is remitted to all correct recipients thereof as intended by the Borrowers (in which case such corrected payment shall be deemed to cure any Default, Event of Default or Mandatory Prepayment Event arising as a result of such Erroneous Payment made with Loan Party Funds).
(h)Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 2.19 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Margin Loan Documentation.

58


(a)Borrowers have heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent the CHI Financial Statements.

(b)No event, change or condition has occurred that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, on the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of CHI and its consolidated Subsidiaries since the closing date of the most recent financial quarter with respect to which CHI’s financial statements are available.
Section 3.05Share Transactions. None of the Borrowers or Affiliates of the Borrowers have created, granted, incurred, or permitted to exist, any Lien on any Shares owned by the Borrowers or such Affiliates, other than, with respect to the Collateral Shares, Permitted Liens.

There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of a Borrower or the Guarantor, threatened against or affecting such Borrower.

(b)Borrower 1 (or its Affiliates) acquired and paid the full purchase price for the CDAY Shares which are Collateral Shares on or before April 30, 2018 and has continuously owned such Collateral Shares since it acquired them and the holding period (as determined in accordance with Rule 144) of such Borrower as to such Collateral Shares (in the hands of such Borrower and in the hands of any Applicable Lender exercising its remedies under the Margin Loan Documentation) began on such date.

(d)Each Advance contemplated hereunder is entered into by Borrowers in good faith and at arm’s length and is a bona fide loan. Such Advance is not entered into with an expectation that any Borrower would default in its obligations thereunder. The Lien created under the Margin Loan Documentation (including without limitation, the pledge of the Collateral Shares) is a “bona fide pledge” with recourse (all within the meaning of Rule 144(d)(3)(iv)) to secure Borrowers’ obligations under the Margin Loan Documentation, which obligations provide for full recourse to Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Guarantee Agreement. Such Margin Loan Documentation is not entered into by Borrowers with the intent of facilitating a disposition of the Shares subject to the Margin Loan Documentation.

No Advance, use of proceeds or other Transaction will violate Anti-Corruption Laws or applicable Sanctions.
Section 3.17Material Nonpublic Information. As of the date hereof, the Closing Date, the First Increase Effective Date, the Second Increase Effective Date, the Third Amendment Effective Date, the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, the Sixth Amendment Effective Date and any date on which a Borrower delivers a Borrowing Notice, none of the Borrowers or their Affiliates is in possession of any Material Nonpublic Information with respect to an Issuer or the Shares of such Issuer that could have a material adverse effect on such Issuer or such Shares.

(a)For the avoidance of doubt, following the delivery of an Event of Default Notice or following the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default of the type set forth in Section 7.01(h), each Lender may choose to exercise any remedies provided for herein or in any other Margin Loan Documentation, or refrain from exercising such remedies, in its sole discretion with respect to the Collateral subject to its control under a Control Agreement (including by virtue of an agency relationship with any Applicable Lender). No Lender shall have any fiduciary or other duties to the other Lenders in connection with the exercise of remedies against the Collateral securing the Obligations owing to such Lender or otherwise and no Lender shall interfere with such exercise of remedies or claim (or support any claim by any third-party) that a sale or other disposition of any Lender’s Collateral by or on behalf of such Lender was not commercially reasonable.
(b)In connection with any assignment by a Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, each Borrower agrees to, as promptly as practicable, (i) establish a separate Collateral Account with the Custodian, (ii) enter into a Control Agreement (in a form substantially identical to the other relevant Control Agreements) in favor of the assignee with respect to such Collateral Account, (iii) enter into a joinder to the Security Agreement granting a Lien in favor of the assignee over such assignee’s Applicable Percentage of the Collateral of each type, (iv) if reasonably requested by the relevant Custodian, enter into a customer account agreement or other agreement with such intermediary and (v) make appropriate amendments to this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation to reflect any administrative or technical changes as are reasonably requested by the assigning Lender, the assignee or Administrative Agent, which do not adversely affect Borrowers’ rights or obligations hereunder. In connection with any assignment by a Lender of all of its Advances hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof, Borrowers agree that such Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under the other Margin Loan Documentation may be assigned to the assignee.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Margin Loan Documentation, each Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) during the continuance of an Event of Default and (except in the case of an Event of Default of the type set forth in Section 7.01(h)) following the delivery of an Event of Default Notice, such Lender shall have the right individually to require the relevant Custodian (or the Applicable Lender acting as agent of such Lender for purposes of perfection, if applicable) to realize upon any of the Collateral subject to such Lender’s control and to apply the proceeds thereof to the repayment of such Xxxxxx’s Advances outstanding and any other Obligations owing to such Lender and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by such Lender on its Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), such Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition.
(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Margin Loan Documentation, when all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) owing to any Lender have been paid in full in cash, upon request of Borrowers, such Lender shall
76


(without notice to, or vote or consent of, any other Lender) take such actions as shall be reasonably required to release its security interest in all Collateral under such Lender’s control.
(e)Each Lender agrees that it will not challenge or question or support any other Person in challenging or questioning in any proceeding the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien of any Applicable Lender under any Collateral Document or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other provisions of this Agreement.
(f)Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Obligations granted on the Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the UCC, or any other applicable Law or the Security Agreement or Control Agreements or any defect or deficiencies in, or failure to perfect or lapse in perfection of, or avoidance as a fraudulent conveyance or otherwise of, the Liens securing any of the Obligations, the subordination of such Liens to any other Liens, or any other circumstance whatsoever, whether or not any bankruptcy proceeding has been commenced by or against any Borrower, each Lender hereby agrees that any Lien on the Collateral securing any Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of any Lender shall be pari passu and secured equally and ratably.
(g)Each Xxxxxx agrees with, and solely for the benefit of, each other Lender that it will not take any Bankruptcy Action with respect to Borrowers.
Article 8
Agents
Section 8.01Authorization and Authority. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Royal Bank of Canada to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent and Calculation Agent under the Margin Loan Documentation and authorizes each Agent to take such actions on such Xxxxxx’s behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 8 are solely for the benefit of Agents and Lenders, and Borrowers shall not have rights as third-party beneficiaries or otherwise of any of such provisions.
Section 8.02Agent Individually.
(a)Each Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not such Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include each Person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrowers or Affiliates thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders.
(b)Each Lender understands that each Person serving as an Agent, acting in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates (collectively, an “Agent’s Group”) are engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research) (such services and businesses are collectively referred to in this Section 8.02 as “Activities”) and may engage in the Activities with or on behalf of Borrowers or their Affiliates. Furthermore, an Agent’s Group may, in undertaking the Activities, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment
77


businesses for its own account or on behalf of others (including Borrowers and Affiliates of Borrowers and including holding, for its own account or on behalf of others, equity, debt and similar positions in Borrowers or Affiliates of Borrowers), including trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of one or more of Borrowers and Affiliates thereof. Each Lender understands and agrees that in engaging in the Activities, an Agent’s Group may receive or otherwise obtain information concerning Borrowers and Affiliates of Borrowers (including information concerning the ability of Borrowers to perform the obligations of Borrowers hereunder or under the other Margin Loan Documentation) which information may not be available to any of the Lenders that are not members of an Agent’s Group. No Agent nor any member of such Agent’s Group shall have any duty to disclose to any Lender or use on behalf of the Lenders, and shall not be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, any information whatsoever about or derived from the Activities or otherwise (including any information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrowers or any Affiliate thereof) or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with the Activities, except that an Agent shall deliver or otherwise make available to each Lender such documents as are expressly required by this Agreement to be transmitted by an Agent to Lenders.
(c)Each Lender further understands that there may be situations where members of an Agent’s Group or their respective customers (including Borrowers and Affiliates of Borrowers) either now have or may in the future have interests or take actions that may conflict with the interests of any one or more Lenders (including the interests of Lenders hereunder). Each Lender agrees that no member of an Agent’s Group is or shall be required to restrict its Activities as a result of the Person serving as an Agent being a member of such Agent’s Group, and that each member of an Agent’s Group may undertake any Activities without further consultation with or notification to any Lender. None of (i) the Margin Loan Documentation, (ii) the receipt by an Agent’s Group of information (including Information) concerning Borrowers or Affiliates of Borrowers (including information concerning the ability of Borrowers to perform obligations of Borrowers hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation) nor (iii) any other matter shall give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including any duty of trust or confidence) owing by an Agent or any member of such Agent’s Group to any Lender including any such duty that would prevent or restrict an Agent’s Group from acting on behalf of customers (including Borrowers or Affiliates of Borrowers) or for its own account.
Section 8.03Duties of Agents; Exculpatory Provisions.
(a)An Agent’s duties hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation are solely ministerial and administrative in nature and no Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, an Agent (i) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, but shall be required to act or refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written direction of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein), provided that an Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent or any of its Affiliates to liability or that it determines in good faith is contrary to this Agreement or applicable Law, (ii) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing and (iii) except as expressly set forth herein, shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrowers or any Affiliates of Borrowers that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
78


(b)No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.01, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, including for the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent sending an Event of Default Notice at the direction of any Lender, if such Agent believes in good faith that the related Event of Default is of a type that would entitle such Lender to issue such direction) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Facility Adjustment Event, Potential Facility Adjustment Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default or the event or events that give or may give rise to any Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default unless and until any Borrower or any Lender shall have given written notice to such Agent describing such Facility Adjustment Event, Potential Facility Adjustment Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default and such event or events.
(c)No Agent nor any member of an Agent’s Group shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty, representation or other information made or supplied in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith or the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the information contained therein, (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 Facility Adjustment Event, Potential Facility Adjustment Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Margin Loan Documentation or any other agreement, instrument or document or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created hereby or thereby or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 2.15 or Article 4 or elsewhere herein, other than (but subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to an Agent.
(d)Nothing in this Agreement shall require an Agent or any of its Related Parties to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any Person on behalf of any Lender and each Lender confirms to Agents that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by an Agent or any of its Related Parties.
Section 8.04Authority. For so long as such Applicable Lender controls a Collateral Account, each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints each Applicable Lender as its agent to act on its behalf for purposes of Section 2.14 and the Security Agreement and authorizes each Applicable Lender to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are contemplated by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Applicable Lender shall act solely as an agent of the other Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or fiduciary relationship or trust with or for any Borrower or Guarantor. The provisions of this Section 8.04 are solely for the benefit of Lenders, and Borrowers shall not have rights as third-party beneficiaries of any such provision.
Section 8.05Reliance by Agent. Each 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. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement
79


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 any Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless an officer or authorized representative of an Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated hereby shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Xxxxxxxxx), 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.
Section 8.06Delegation of Duties. An Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Margin Loan Documentation by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by such Agent, and such 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; provided, in each case, that no such delegation to a sub-agent or a Related Party shall release an Agent from any of its obligations hereunder. Each such sub-agent and the Related Parties of an Agent and each such sub agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 8 and Margin Loan Documentation (as though such sub-agents were an “Agent” hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.
Section 8.07Resignation of Agent. An Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Xxxxxxx and Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrowers (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and not have been cured or waived), in which case no such consultation shall be required), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, New York. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Xxxxxxx and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (such 30-day period, the “Lender Appointment Period”), then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. In addition and without any obligation on the part of the retiring Agent to appoint, on behalf of the Lenders, a successor Agent, the retiring Agent may at any time upon or after the end of the Lender Appointment Period notify Xxxxxxxxx and Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted appointment as successor Agent and of the effective date of such retiring Agent’s resignation which effective date shall be no earlier than three (3) Business Days after the date of such notice. Upon the resignation effective date established in such notice and regardless of whether a successor Agent has been appointed and accepted such appointment, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as an Agent hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation but shall not be relieved of any of its obligations as a Lender and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Xxxxxxx appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. The successor shall be consented to by Borrowers at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default that has not been cured or waived (which consent of Borrowers shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as an Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties as an Agent of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations as an Agent hereunder and/or under the other Margin Loan
80


Documentation but shall not be relieved of any of its obligations as a Lender (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 8.07). The fees payable by Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Margin Loan Documentation, the provisions of this Article 8 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 Agent was acting as an Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time any Agent ceases to be a Lender hereunder, such Agent shall be deemed to have provided its notice of resignation, which notice shall be automatically effective as of the date such Agent ceased to be a Lender hereunder.
Section 8.08Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders.
(a)Each Lender confirms to Agents, each other Lender and each of their respective Related Parties that it (i) possesses (individually or through its Related Parties) such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable, without reliance on Agents, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, of evaluating the merits and risks (including tax, legal, regulatory, credit, accounting and other financial matters) of (x) entering into this Agreement, (y) making its portion of the Facility and (z) taking or not taking actions hereunder, (ii) is financially able to bear such risks and (iii) has determined that entering into this Agreement and making its portion of the Facility is suitable and appropriate for it.
(b)Each Lender acknowledges that (i) it is solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation, (ii) it has, independently and without reliance upon Agents, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, made its own appraisal and investigation of all risks associated with, and its own credit analysis and decision to enter into, this Agreement based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate and (iii) it will, independently and without reliance upon Agents, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, continue to be solely responsible for making its own appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with, and its own credit analysis and decision to take or not take action under, this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation and whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a Lender or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder, based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning Borrowers and Affiliates of Borrowers) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, which may include, in each case:
(i)the financial condition, status and capitalization of Borrowers;
(ii)the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with this Agreement;
(iii) determining compliance or non-compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Advances and the form and substance of all evidence delivered in connection with establishing the satisfaction of each such condition; and
81


(iv) the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of any other information delivered by Agents, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement, the other Margin Loan Documentation, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with this Agreement.
Section 8.09Removal of Administrative Agent. At any time, if (a) following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall fail to send an Event of Default Notice when required at the request of the Required Lenders, or, in the case of an Event of Default of the type that gives any Lender the right to send an Event of Default Notice under Section 7.01, any Lender, by 7:00 p.m. on the date such request is sent to Administrative Agent (or by 9:00 a.m. on the date following such request, if such request is made after 5:00 p.m.) or (b) following the occurrence of a Collateral Call Trigger Event on any Scheduled Trading Day, Administrative Agent shall fail to send a Collateral Call Notice by 7:00 p.m., in each case, the Required Lenders shall have the right to remove Administrative Agent and appoint a successor, which shall be one of the Lenders party hereto on the date hereof. Any such removal and appointment shall be effective upon notice by such proposed successor Administrative Agent to the removed Administrative Agent and Borrowers on behalf of the Required Lenders, whereupon (i) the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as an Agent hereunder and under the Margin Loan Documentation, but shall not be relieved of any of its obligations as a Lender and (ii) the successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties as an Administrative Agent.
Article 9

(f)permit the assignment or transfer by any Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under any Margin Loan Documentation to which it is a party;
(g)permit the release of any Collateral other than in accordance with the Margin Loan Documentation;
(h)modify the definition of “Applicable Percentage,” “Funding Percentage,” “Incremental Commitment Percentage” or “Pro Rata Basis” or otherwise affect the manner in which payments are shared, or Collateral is allocated, ratably among Lenders;
(i)modify Section 2.08 (other than clause (a) thereof), Section 2.15, Section 5.13 or Section 6.11;

(k)amend or modify any part of the Fee and Ratio Letter;
(l)release Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement (other than in accordance with the terms of the Guarantee Agreement); or
(m)materially impair or diminish, or circumvent, any term or provision specified above (including, without limitation, by modifying any defined term used therein or any provision referenced therein);
provided further that (i) the provisions set forth in Article 8 shall not be waived, amended, modified or supplemented, nor any consent granted to any deviation thereto, without the consent of each Agent affected thereby, (ii) if the terms of any Advances made on any date differ from the terms of the Advances made on any other date, no waiver, amendment, modification, supplement, or consent granted to any deviation from the terms of the Margin Loan Documentation shall uniquely affect any tranche of Advances without the consent of Required Lenders and (iii) Sections 2.09, 2.10, 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13 shall not be amended or waived in a way that adversely affects any Lender without such Lender’s consent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender agrees with each other Lender and with Borrowers that no amendment, termination or supplement shall be made to any Security Agreement, Issuer Agreement or Control Agreement, and no new Margin Loan Documentation
83


shall be entered into with any Lender (subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to Section 2.15), unless a substantially identical amendment, termination or supplement is made to each other Security Agreement, Issuer Agreement or Control Agreement, or substantially identical Margin Loan Documentation is entered into with each other Lender (or, in the case of Section 2.15, each other Lender is already party to substantially identical Margin Loan Documentation), as the case may be.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon the occurrence of any Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event, Calculation Agent shall, in a commercially reasonable manner (a) adjust one or more of the terms or provisions of the Facility as Calculation Agent reasonably determines necessary to account for the effect of the Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event on the Facility (unless Calculation Agent determines that no such adjustment is necessary), and (b) determine the effective time of the adjustment (taking into account, among other factors, volatility, correlation, liquidity and free float of the Shares or any other Collateral, the credit profile of Issuers or the issuer of such other Collateral and Transfer Restrictions, in each case, relative to the applicable Shares or, if applicable, any other Collateral prior to giving effect to the relevant event). Following the occurrence of any Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event, Calculation Agent shall notify each Lender of the adjustments to the terms or provisions of the Facility that it proposes to make in respect thereof, and the proposed effective time therefor (or its determination that no such adjustment is necessary). If, within three Business Days of receiving such notice, Required Lenders notify Calculation Agent that they disagree with such proposed adjustments or effective time (or Calculation Agent’s determination that no such adjustment is necessary), and include in such notice an alternative set of adjustments that Required Lenders propose to make in respect of such Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event and a proposed effective time therefor, then Calculation Agent shall notify Borrower that such alternative adjustments apply as of such effective time. Any such adjustments pursuant to this paragraph shall be binding on all parties to the Margin Loan Documentation and all such parties shall enter into such documentation required or reasonably requested by Administrative Agent to reflect such adjustments.
Notwithstanding the foregoing (and without limitation of the proviso to the definition of “Potential Facility Adjustment Event”), upon the occurrence of any Facility Adjustment Event or Potential Facility Adjustment Event, the adjustments, if any, in respect thereof pursuant to the two immediately preceding paragraphs will not, solely as a result of such adjustment, directly cause a Mandatory Prepayment Event to have occurred and be continuing immediately after giving effect thereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent and the Borrowers may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Margin Loan Documentation or to enter into additional Margin Loan Documentation as the Agent deems appropriate in order to implement any Benchmark Replacement or any Conforming Change or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 2.18 in accordance with the terms thereof.

(a)No failure or delay by any Agent or Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Margin Loan Documentation shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of each Agent or Lender hereunder and under any other Margin Loan Documentation are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that such Agent or Lender would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Margin Loan Documentation or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.01, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Borrower in any case shall entitle such Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of an Advance shall not be construed as a waiver of any Event of Default, regardless of whether any Agent or Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Event of Default at the time.
(b)The Advances are made with full recourse to Borrowers and constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated Indebtedness of Borrowers.
(c)Each Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Margin Loan Documentation, collectively, is intended to constitute a “securities contract” as such term is defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code and that each delivery, transfer, payment and grant of a security interest made or required to be made hereunder or contemplated hereby or made, required to be made or contemplated in connection herewith is a “transfer” and a “margin payment” or a “settlement payment” within the meaning of Section 362(b)(6) and/or (27) and Sections 546(e) and/or (j) of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, all obligations under or in connection with the Margin Loan Documentation represent obligations in respect of “termination values,” “payment amounts” or “other transfer obligations” within the meaning of Sections 362 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code. The parties further acknowledge and agree that the Margin Loan Documentation collectively constitutes a “master netting agreement” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code.
Section 9.04Costs And Expenses; Indemnification; Damage Waiver.
(a)Costs and Expenses. Borrowers shall pay promptly (i) all actual, reasonable and documented costs and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lenders and each Agent, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for all Agents and Lenders, in connection with the credit facility (but excluding any costs relating to the syndication thereof) provided for herein, the preparation and administration
87


of the Margin Loan Documentation or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of the Margin Loan Documentation (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), and (ii) all reasonable costs and reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Xxxxxxx and each Agent, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Agent or Lender (whether outside counsel or the allocated costs of its internal legal department), in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Margin Loan Documentation, including its rights under this Section 9.04, or in connection with the Advances made hereunder, including all such expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Advances.
(b)Indemnification by Xxxxxxxxx. Borrowers shall indemnify each Agent and Xxxxxx (and any sub-agent thereof) and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person, an “Indemnitee”) 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, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower or any Related Party of any Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery or administration of this Agreement, any other Margin Loan Documentation or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the enforcement or protection of their rights hereunder and thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any hedging activities by any Indemnitee), any other Margin Loan Documentation or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Advance or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (iii) 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 Borrower or any other Related Party of any Borrower, 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 any of its Related Parties or (y) arise out of any dispute among Indemnitees (other than a dispute involving claims against Administrative Agent or any Calculation Agent, in each case, in their respective capacities as such) that did not involve actions or omissions of any Borrower or any Affiliate of any Borrower. This Section 9.04 shall not apply to Taxes, other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages or liabilities in respect of a non-Tax claim. With respect to expenses of counsel that are indemnifiable hereunder, the Borrowers shall provide an indemnity only if all Indemnitees that obtain indemnification hereunder with respect to a substantially-related claim engage a single counsel in each relevant jurisdiction unless the interest of such Indemnitees are materially adverse to one another or to the extent it would be advisable with respect to applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements or with related policies and procedures applicable to such Indemnitees to engage separate counsel.
(c)Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Margin Loan Documentation or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Section 9.04(b) shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through
88


telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Margin Loan Documentation or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent such charges result from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(d)Post-Default Hedging Costs. After (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default and (ii) acceleration of Obligations of any Lender, Borrowers shall pay, on demand, each Lender’s costs (including the cost of put options and such Lender’s reasonable estimate of the cost of borrowing Shares in connection with Share Hedging Transactions), charges, losses (including market losses), fees, expenses, Taxes or duties of any kind (including, for these purposes, a reduction in rebate received by such Lender in respect of its own borrowing of securities) in connection with such Lender’s (i) Advances or (ii) acquisition, establishment, re-establishment, substitution, maintenance, unwinding or disposition of, or realization or recovery of the proceeds of (or partial proceeds of) any transaction(s), position(s) or asset(s) that such Lender deems necessary (in its sole discretion) to hedge the market risk of the Collateral (including, solely to the extent applicable, any risk or potential damage as a result of unavailability of the public resale of the Collateral Shares in compliance with the conditions of Rule 144), with respect to each hedge entered into after the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default that has not been waived or deemed not to occur pursuant to the last sentence of Section 7.01, in each case regardless of whether such funding is obtained from third parties, an Affiliate of such Lender or such Lender’s internal sources. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Borrowers shall not be responsible for any costs, charges, fees, expenses, Taxes or duties of any kind related to any hedging activities of such Lender in connection with this Facility other than as set forth in this Section 9.04(d). “Share Hedging Transactions” means “short sales” of Shares (including stock borrow transactions and synthetic short positions in the Shares) and option contracts, futures contracts, forward contracts, swap agreements or other derivative transactions relating to Shares, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any such transaction for which the underlier is a broad-based index or basket of securities.
(e)Payments. All amounts due under this Section 9.04 shall be payable immediately upon demand therefor.
(f)Survival. The agreements in this Section 9.04 shall survive the termination of the Facility and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.
Section 9.05Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower is made to any of Administrative Agent or Lenders (or Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders), or Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or any Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.
Section 9.06Governing Law; Submission To Jurisdiction.
89


(a)Governing Law. The Margin Loan Documentation shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, laws of the State of New York without giving effect to its conflict of laws provisions other than Section 5 1401 of the New York General Obligations Law.
(b)Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. Federal or New York State court sitting in New York, New York in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Margin Loan Documentation, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation shall affect any right that any Agent or Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation against any Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(c)Waiver of Venue. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation in any court referred to in Section 9.06(b). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(d)Service of Process. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.02(a). Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.
(e)WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER MARGIN LOAN DOCUMENTATION OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER MARGIN LOAN DOCUMENTATION BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.06(E).
Section 9.07Successors and Assigns.
(a)The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any rights or obligations of Borrowers hereunder, or under any other Margin Loan Documentation, without the prior written consent of
90


each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). 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 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees that make the Purchaser Representations for the benefit of each “Lender” hereunder all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Advances); provided that, except in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of such Lender (other than a special purpose vehicle, securitization vehicle or other similar Person), an Approved Fund or an Approved Lender, each Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that it shall be reasonable for a Borrower to withhold consent from a proposed assignee or transferee with which such Borrower or its Affiliates do not have a commercial relationship); provided further that any consent of a Borrower otherwise required under this Section 9.07(a) shall not be required if a payment or bankruptcy Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided further that, solely to the extent such assignment would cause such Xxxxxx’s Applicable Percentage to be reduced from at or above 50% immediately prior to such assignment to below 50% immediately after giving effect to such assignment, such assigning Lender shall offer each Original Lender and/or any of its Affiliates a right of first refusal to acquire the interests, rights and obligations of such Lender by assignment ratably in accordance with such Original Lender’s ratable share based upon the relative amount of such Xxxxxx’s Advances and if any such Original Lender and/or any of its Permitted Affiliates do not accept such offer within ten (10) Business Days, then it shall be deemed to have waived its right of first refusal. Subject to notification of an assignment, the assignee shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned, have the rights and obligations of the related assigning Lender under this Agreement, and such Lender shall, to the extent of the interest assigned, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an assignment covering all of such 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 2.09, 2.10, 2.12, 9.04 and 9.14). Each Borrower hereby agrees to execute any amendment and/or any other document that may be necessary to effectuate such an assignment. Borrowers shall maintain a copy of each assignment delivered to Borrowers and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Xxxxxxx and their respective successors and assigns, and the commitments of, and principal amounts of and interest on the Obligations owing to, each assignee pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Lenders and the assignees 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 each Lender or assignee (but only as to its own holdings), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(b)Any Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than Borrowers or any Affiliates of Borrowers) (a “Participant”) that make the Purchaser Representations for the benefit of each Lender hereunder in all or a portion of such Xxxxxx's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Margin Loan Documentation (including all or a portion of the Advances); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under the Margin Loan Documentation shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to Borrowers for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrowers shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iv) such Lender shall maintain a register of all Participants detailing each Participant’s entitlement to principal and interest and (v) if the participation
91


provides the Participant with control rights with respect to the Lender’s rights under this Agreement, (A) such Participant shall be an Affiliate of such Lender (other than a special purpose vehicle, securitization vehicle or other similar Person), an Approved Fund or an Approved Lender or (B) each Borrower shall have given its prior written consent to such participation (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that it shall be reasonable for a Borrower to withhold consent from a proposed participant with which such Borrower or its Affiliates do not have a commercial relationship). Subject to Section 9.07(c), Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11, and 2.13 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Section 9.07(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.14 as though it were a Lender.
(c)A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.09 and Section 2.10 than a Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrowers’ prior written consent or results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Participant will comply with Section 2.10(e) as though it were a Lender, except that such Tax forms shall be provided to Lender and not Borrowers. A participating Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Margin Loan Documentation (the “Participant Register”); provided that Lender shall not 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 Margin Loan Documentation) 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 Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(b) (or any amended or successor version) or in order to obtain the consent set forth in Section 9.07(b)(v). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and any 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.
(d)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, and this Section 9.07 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(e)No Lender may acquire credit protection or similar derivative arrangement, including a total return swap, with respect to an Advance if such instrument provides the seller thereof with control rights with respect to the Lender’s rights under this Agreement unless (i) such seller is an Affiliate of such Lender (other than a special purpose vehicle, securitization vehicle or other similar Person), an Approved Fund or an Approved Lender or (ii) each Borrower has given its prior written consent thereto (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that it shall be reasonable for a Borrower to withhold consent to a proposed seller of credit protection with which such Borrower or its Affiliates do not have a commercial relationship).
92


Section 9.08Severability. Any provision of any Margin Loan Documentation held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 9.09Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Margin Loan Documentation and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to any Agent or Lender constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Article 4, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each Agent and Xxxxxx and when each Agent and Lender shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or e-mail transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually-executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “execute,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the 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.
Section 9.10Survival Of Representations. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers or CHI in the Margin Loan Documentation and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Margin Loan Documentation and the making of any Advances, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Advance or any other Obligation under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or unsatisfied. The provisions of Sections 2.09, 2.10 and 2.12 and Article 9 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Advances or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
Section 9.11Confidentiality. Subject to Section 5.06, each Agent and Xxxxxx agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below) pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, except that Information may be (1) used by any Agent or Lender, its affiliates, agents and/or hedging counterparties in connection with, or upon, the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Margin Loan Documentation or any action or proceeding relating
93


to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder or (2) disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Agent or Lender (in which case the disclosing party agrees to inform Borrowers promptly of such disclosure, unless such notice is prohibited by applicable Law and except in connection with any request as part of a regulatory examination of an audit or examination conducted by bank accountants), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (in which case the disclosing party agrees to inform Borrowers promptly of such disclosure to the extent permitted by Law and except in connection with a regulatory examination of an audit or examination conducted by bank accountants), (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.11, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations hereunder, (g) with the consent of Borrowers or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.11 or (ii) becomes available to such Agent or Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than any Borrower or its Affiliates. For the purposes of this Section 9.11, “Information” means all information received from CHI, any Borrower or its Affiliates relating to CHI, Borrowers or Affiliates of Borrowers or the business of Borrowers hereunder or pursuant hereto, other than any such information that is available to an Agent or Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by a Borrower or its Affiliates, provided that in the case of information received from a Borrower or its Affiliates after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.11 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
Section 9.12No Advisory Or Fiduciary Relationship. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Margin Loan Documentation), each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (a)(i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by any Agent or Lender are arm’s-length commercial transactions between such Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and such Agent or Lender and its Affiliates, on the other hand, (ii) such Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate and (iii) such Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Margin Loan Documentation; (b)(i) each Agent and Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing herein or otherwise by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for such Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any other Person and (ii) each Agent and Lender has no obligation to such Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Margin Loan Documentation; and (c) each Agent and Lender and its Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of such Borrower and its
94


Affiliates, and each Lender has no obligations to disclose any of such interests to such Borrower or any of its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against each Agent and Lender or its Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
Section 9.13Right Of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Agent and Lender and each of their respective Affiliates (each, a “Set-off Party”) is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Set-off Party to or for the credit or the account of Borrowers against any of and all the obligations and liabilities of Borrowers, irrespective of whether or not the relevant Set-off Party shall have made any demand under the Margin Loan Documentation and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Set-off Party under this Section 9.13 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Set-off Party may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrowers promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
Section 9.14Judgment Currency. If a judgment, order or award is rendered by any court or tribunal for the payment of any amounts owing to any Agent or Lender under this Agreement or any other Margin Loan Documentation or for the payment of damages in respect of a judgment or order of another court or tribunal for the payment of such amount or damages, such judgment, order or award being expressed in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than Dollars, Borrowers agree (a) that the obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any such amounts owing shall be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following such Agent’s or Lender’s receipt of any sum adjudged in the Judgment Currency, such Agent or Lender may purchase Dollars with the Judgment Currency and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless such Agent or Lender against any deficiency in terms of Dollars in the amounts actually received by such Agent or Lender following any such purchase (after deduction of any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, Dollars). The indemnity set forth in the preceding sentence shall (notwithstanding any judgment referred to in the preceding sentence) constitute an obligation of Borrowers separate and independent from its other obligations hereunder, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Agent or Xxxxxx, and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 9.15USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Agent and Lender is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), as amended (the “Patriot Act”) and hereby notifies Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of such Persons and other information that will allow such Agent or Lender to identify such Persons in accordance with the Patriot Act. Borrowers agree to promptly provide each Agent and Lender with all of the information requested by such Agent or Lender to the extent such Agent or Lender deems such information reasonably necessary to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act, and any other information or documentation reasonably requested by such Agent or Lender in connection with “know your customer” requirements and such Agent or Lender’s customary client on-boarding process.
Section 9.16Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Advance, together with all fees, charges and
95


other amounts which are treated as interest on such Advance under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by any Lender holding such Advance in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Advance hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Advance but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.16 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Advances or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
Section 9.17Disclosure. Borrowers hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Agent and Xxxxxx and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with Borrowers or Affiliates of Borrowers.

Section 9.19Joint and Several Liability. The Advances are made with full recourse to each Borrower and constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated Indebtedness of each Borrower, and each Borrower is jointly and severally liable for the Obligations as a primary obligor in respect thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, unless expressly set forth herein or under any other Margin Loan Documentation, any payment or delivery obligation owed to or owed by any Borrower hereunder or under any other Margin Loan Documentation shall be made without duplication with any payment or delivery obligation owed to or owed by any other Borrower. The Obligations of each Borrower are independent of the Obligations of the other Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Borrower to enforce this Agreement, irrespective of whether any action has been brought against the other Borrower or whether the other Borrower is joined in any such action.
Section 9.20Conflicts. The parties acknowledge that (a) there is no hedging arrangement relating to any Advance between any Lender or any of its Affiliates on one hand and any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates on the other hand, (b) there is no understanding between any Lender or any of its Affiliates on one hand and any Borrower or any Affiliate of a Borrower on the other hand regarding any hedging related to any Advance by any Lender or its Affiliates and (c) there is no arrangement or understanding for any Lender or its Affiliates to provide, and each Lender agrees not to provide and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Affiliates not to provide, any Borrower with any information regarding how, when or whether such Lender or its Affiliates xxxxxx, or will hedge, any Advance; provided that neither any Borrower nor any Affiliate of a Borrower will request such information from such Lender or any Affiliate of such Lender. Each Borrower will not seek to control or influence how, when or whether any Lender will make any “purchases or sales” (within the meaning of Rule
96


10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B)(3) under the Exchange Act) under any Advance entered into under this Agreement, including any Lender’s decision to enter into any hedging transactions or to conduct foreclosure sales of any shares of Pledged Shares made in accordance with the terms of the Advance Documents. The Borrower acknowledges that: (i) during the term of the Advances, any Lender and its affiliates may buy or sell Shares or other securities or buy or sell options or futures contracts or enter into swaps or other derivative securities in order to establish, adjust or unwind its hedge position with respect to its portion of the Advances; (ii) any Lender and its affiliates may also be active in the market for the Shares other than in connection with any hedging activities in relation to its portion of the Advances; (iii) any Lender shall make its own determination as to whether, when or in what manner any hedging or market activities in Shares or other securities shall be conducted and shall do so in a manner that it deems appropriate; and (iv) any market activities of any Lender and its affiliates with respect to the Shares may affect the market price and volatility of the Shares, as well as the LTV Level, each in a manner that may be adverse to the Borrower.
Section 9.21U.S. QFC Contractual Stay Requirements.
(a)Recognition of U.S. Regimes. In the event one or more of the Covered Parties becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of this Agreement, any transaction under this Agreement or any related Credit Enhancement (each, a “Relevant Agreement”) and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, such Relevant Agreement (“Relevant Interests”) from one or more of the Covered Parties will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Relevant Agreement and Relevant Interests were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event one or more of the Covered Parties or any Covered Affiliate becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights with respect to any Relevant Agreement against the Covered Party or Relevant Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Relevant Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. The requirements of this Section 9.20(a) apply notwithstanding Section 9.20(b).
(b)Limitation on Exercise of Certain Default Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Relevant Agreement or any other agreement, the parties expressly agree that each Borrower shall not be permitted to exercise any Default Right against the Relevant Covered Parties with respect to any Relevant Agreement that is related, directly or indirectly, to a Covered Affiliate becoming subject to an Insolvency Proceeding, other than a Default Right that arises as a result of the Relevant Covered Parties becoming subject to an Insolvency Proceeding or the Relevant Covered Parties not satisfying a payment or delivery obligation pursuant to such Relevant Agreement or another contract between the Relevant Covered Parties and any Borrower that gives rise to a Default Right under such Relevant Agreement. After a Covered Affiliate has become subject to an Insolvency Proceeding, if any Borrower seeks to exercise any Default Right with respect to any Relevant Agreement with the Relevant Covered Parties, such Borrower shall have the burden of proof, by clear and convincing evidence, that the exercise of such Default Right is permitted thereunder.
(c)Effective Date. The provisions of this Section 9.20 will come into effect on the later of the date of this Agreement and the Applicable Compliance Date.
(d)Definitions. For the purposes of this Section 9.20, the following definitions apply:
97



    “Applicable Compliance Date” means: (a) July 1, 2019, if any Borrower is a “financial counterparty” other than a “small financial institution” (as such terms are defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, the QFC Stay Rules); or (b) otherwise, January 1, 2020.

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, the QFC Stay Rules, including without limitation any right of a party to liquidate, terminate, cancel, rescind, or accelerate an agreement or transactions thereunder, set off or net amounts owed, exercise remedies in respect of collateral or other credit support or related property, demand payment or delivery, suspend, delay, or defer payment or performance, alter the amount of, demand the return of or modify any right to reuse collateral or margin provided, otherwise modify the obligations of a party, or any similar rights.
