Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Note Purchase Agreement dated as of May 1, 2006 (the “Note Agreement”) between Alliance Data Systems Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and you pursuant to which the Company issued $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Senior Notes, consisting of $250,000,000 6.00% Senior Notes, Series A, due May 16, 2009 and $250,000,000 6.14% Senior Notes, Series B, due May 16, 2011 (collectively, the “Notes”). You are referred to herein individually as a “Holder” and collectively as the “Holders.” Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Note Agreement, as amended by this First Amendment to Note Purchase Agreement (this “First Amendment”).
The Company has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of May 17, 2007 with Aladdin Holdco, Inc. and Aladdin Merger Sub, Inc. pursuant to which Aladdin Merger Sub, Inc. will merge with and into the Company. After completion of the Blackstone Merger, the Company will be an affiliate of The Blackstone Group. The Company requests that the Holders consent to amendments to the Note Agreement relating to the prepayment of the Notes in connection with the Blackstone Merger.
In consideration of the premises and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Company and the Holders agree as follows:
1. | AMENDMENT OF NOTE AGREEMENT |
1.1 Amendment of Section 8.2. The following Section 8.2(c) is added to the Note Agreement to read in its entirety as follows:
(c) Prepayment in Connection with the Blackstone Merger.
(i) Mandatory Prepayment. Having heretofore given notice to the holders of the Control Event in respect of the pending Blackstone Merger, promptly after the effective date of the First Amendment, and in any event within 5 days, the Company shall give notice of prepayment of all Notes pursuant to Section 8.2(c), which notice shall not be rescindable except in the event that the Company provides a certificate from a Responsible Officer to each holder certifying that efforts to effect the Blackstone Merger have ceased or been abandoned, with an estimated prepayment date of November 14, 2007 or such other date as the Blackstone Merger is scheduled to occur; provided such date is not later than January 1, 2008 (the date on which prepayment is made, the “Blackstone Prepayment Date”), and shall prepay all, but not less than all, of the Notes held by each holder (in this case only, “holder” in respect of any Note registered in the name of a nominee for a disclosed beneficial owner (any such disclosed beneficial owner being identified on Schedule I to the First Amendment) shall mean such beneficial owner) on the Blackstone Prepayment Date, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes accrued to the date of prepayment and the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount (in aggregate, the “Prepayment Amount”). Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 8.2(c)(i) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.2, except that payment by the Company to the holders will be made to The Bank of New York (or such other bank as the Company shall so select with notice to the Holders (the “Paying Agent”), which shall act as paying agent for the purposes of dispensing payment to the holders in accordance with Schedule A to the Note Agreement. Upon payment of the Prepayment Amount by the Company to the Paying Agent, the debt represented by the Notes shall be satisfied and discharged and the provisions of Sections 7, 8, 9 and 10 shall cease to have effect; provided that if the First Amendment shall cease to be effective in accordance with Section 2 of the First Amendment, the provisions of Section 7, 8, 9 and 10 shall automatically be reinstated.
(ii) Notices. Two Business Days prior to the Blackstone Prepayment Date, the Company will send to each holder notice under this Section 8.2(c) specifying the proposed Blackstone Prepayment Date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder, and the interest to be paid on the proposed Blackstone Prepayment Date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated using the Reinvestment Yield on the date prior to such notice and assuming that the Settlement Date in respect of the Notes will be the date of the proposed Blackstone Prepayment Date set forth in such notice), setting forth the details of such computation.
(iii) Deferral. The obligation of the Company to prepay Notes pursuant to Section 8.2(c)(i) is subject to and conditioned upon the occurrence of the Blackstone Merger and shall be void and of no force and effect in the event the Blackstone Merger does not occur. In the event that the Blackstone Merger does not occur on or prior to the proposed Blackstone Prepayment Date set forth in a notice, the prepayment shall be
2
deferred until and shall be made on the date on which the Blackstone Merger occurs (and, so long as a new notice is not required pursuant to the terms of the immediately following sentence, the Make-Whole Amount need not be recalculated and shall be the same amount as set forth in the most recent notice provided to holders of the Notes in accordance with Section 8.2(c)(ii)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the prepayment has not been made within 5 Business Days after such proposed Blackstone Prepayment Date by virtue of the deferral provided for in this Section 8.2(c)(iii), two Business Days prior to any new proposed Blackstone Prepayment Date, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes a new notice and certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount (calculated as provided in Section 8.2(c)(ii)) and the interest to be paid as of such new proposed Blackstone Prepayment Date. The Company may continue to defer the Blackstone Prepayment Date as provided in this Section 8.2(c)(iii) for so long as the First Amendment remains effective.
(iv) Deemed Change in Control Offer. A prepayment notice by the Company under this Section 8.2(c) shall be deemed to satisfy the obligations of the Company under Section 8.3 and rescind any previous offer made by the Company under Section 8.3 with respect to the Blackstone Merger.
1.2 Defined Terms. The following new definitions are added to Schedule B, in the appropriate alphabetical order:
“Blackstone Merger” means the merger of Aladdin Merger Sub, Inc. with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation pursuant to the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of May 17, 2007 by and among Aladdin Holdco, Inc., Aladdin Merger Sub, Inc. and the Company.
“Blackstone Prepayment Date” is defined in Section 8.2(c).
“First Amendment” means the First Amendment to Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 22, 2007 among the Company and the holders of the Notes.
2. | EFFECTIVE DATE |
