2.5 CDOR Benchmark Transition Event. The following is hereby added to the Credit Agreement as a new Section 5.2(b)(vii):
(vii) CDOR Benchmark Transition Event. On May 16, 2022, Refinitiv Benchmark Services (UK) Limited (“RBSL”), the administrator of CDOR, announced in a public statement (the “CDOR Announcement”) that the calculation and publication of all tenors of CDOR will permanently cease immediately following a final publication on Friday June 28, 2024. No successor administrator for RBSL was identified in such Announcement. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the CDOR Announcement resulted in the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to CDOR pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to notify any parties of such Benchmark Transition Event.
2.6 Guarantors. Section 8.14 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(a) Subject to Section 8.14(c), within one hundred twenty (120) days, unless extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, of (1) any Person becoming a Material Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) after the Effective Date, (2) any Studio Service Subsidiary being designated as an Unencumbered Studio Service Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) by the Borrower after the Second Amendment Effective Date pursuant to Section 4.2(b) or (3) the addition of a Property to the Unencumbered Pool that is owned by a Subsidiary not already a Guarantor (or Borrower), the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent each of the following in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (A) an Accession Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and (B) the items that would have been delivered under subsections (iv)(A), (v) through (viii), and (xiv) through (xvi), of Section 6.1(a) if such Subsidiary had been a Material Subsidiary or an Unencumbered Studio Service Subsidiary, as applicable, on the Effective Date; provided, however, promptly (and in any event within one hundred twenty (120) days, unless extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) upon any Excluded Subsidiary ceasing to be subject to the restriction which prevented it from becoming a Guarantor on the Effective Date or delivering an Accession Agreement pursuant to this Section, as the case may be, such Subsidiary shall comply with the provisions of this Section 8.14. For the purpose of clarity, each Unencumbered Pool
-12-
Exhibit 10.1
Property must be owned by a Guarantor or the Borrower, except during any period in which the owner of any Unencumbered Pool Property is not required to provide a Guaranty pursuant to Section 8.14(c), in which case such Unencumbered Pool Property need only be owned by a Subsidiary of the Borrower or the Borrower.
(b) The Borrower may request in writing that the Administrative Agent release, and upon receipt of such request the Administrative Agent shall release, a Guarantor from the Guaranty so long as: (i) subject to Section 8.14(c), such Guarantor does not own (or will not own as of such release) any Unencumbered Pool Property, nor any direct or indirect equity interest in any Subsidiary that owns an Unencumbered Pool Property and such Guarantor is not then designated as an Unencumbered Studio Service Subsidiary; (ii) such Guarantor is not otherwise required to be a party to the Guaranty under the immediately preceding subsection (a) or the last two sentences of the following subsection (c); (iii) no Default or Event of Default then exists or would occur as a result of such release, including, without limitation, a Default or Event of Default resulting from a violation of any of the covenants contained in Section 10.1; (iv) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and each other Loan Party in the Loan Documents to which any of them is a party, shall be true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent otherwise qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date of such release with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent otherwise qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances expressly permitted under the Loan Documents or waived or consented to by the applicable Lenders in writing in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.7; and (v) the Administrative Agent shall have received such written request at least ten (10) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior to the requested date of release. Delivery by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent of any such request shall constitute a representation by the Borrower that the matters set forth in the preceding sentence (both as of the date of the giving of such request and as of the date of the effectiveness of such request) are true and correct with respect to such request.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.14 above, for so long as Xxxxxx REIT maintains an Investment Grade Rating, no Material Subsidiary, Unencumbered Studio Service Subsidiary or owner of any Unencumbered Pool Property (or any other Subsidiary) shall be required to become a Guarantor and any Material Subsidiary, Unencumbered Studio Service Subsidiary or owner of any Unencumbered Pool Property (or any other Subsidiary) that has provided a Guaranty that is eligible to be released from such Guaranty pursuant to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of the preceding subsection (b) may be released from the Guaranty (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall in no event include Xxxxxx REIT), unless such Person, or any Subsidiary that directly or indirectly owns any Equity Interest in such Person, provides a Guaranty of Indebtedness to a Person other than to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties (as defined in the Guaranty). In the event Xxxxxx REIT fails to maintain an Investment Grade Rating, then each Material Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), each Unencumbered Studio Service Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) and each owner of any Unencumbered Pool Property that is not then a Guarantor that is a party to the Guaranty hereunder shall comply with all the terms and conditions of Section 8.14(a) above within thirty (30) days of such failure, unless extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. In the event a Material Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), an Unencumbered Studio Service Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) or an owner of any Unencumbered Pool Property or any Subsidiary that directly or indirectly owns any Equity Interest in such
-13-
Exhibit 10.1
owner, that is not then a Guarantor that is party to the Guaranty hereunder provides a Guaranty of Indebtedness to a Person other than to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties (as defined in the Guaranty), then such Material Subsidiary, Unencumbered Studio Service Subsidiary, owner of any Unencumbered Pool Property and/or such Subsidiary that directly or indirectly owns any Equity Interest in such owner, as applicable, shall comply with all the terms and conditions of Section 8.14(a) above within thirty (30) days of executing such third party Guaranty, unless extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.
2.7 Financial Covenants.
(a) Section 10.1(a) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Ratio of Total Liabilities to Total Asset Value. The Borrower shall not permit the ratio of (i) Total Liabilities to (ii) Total Asset Value, to exceed 0.60 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter; provided that such ratio may increase to up to 0.65 to 1.00 for up to (I) four (4) consecutive calendar quarters immediately following an Acquisition that has occurred prior to the effectiveness of all of the Private Placement Amendments, or (II) two (2) consecutive calendar quarters immediately following a Material Acquisition that has occurred following the effectiveness of all of the Private Placement Amendments, (it being understood and agreed that any permitted increase in such ratio as a result of clause (I) for any Acquisition that occurred prior to the effectiveness of all of the Private Placement Amendments shall terminate upon the effectiveness of all of the Private Placement Amendments), in all such cases of the foregoing clauses (I) and (II), not more than twice during the term of this Agreement. For purposes of this covenant, (A) Total Liabilities shall be adjusted by deducting therefrom the amount of unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents in excess of $30,000,000 to the extent that there is an equivalent amount of Indebtedness included in Total Liabilities that matures within twenty-four (24) months from the applicable date of the calculation, and (B) Total Asset Value shall be adjusted by deducting therefrom the amount by which Total Liabilities is adjusted pursuant to clause (A) above.
(b) Section 10.1(b) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Ratio of Unsecured Indebtedness to Unencumbered Asset Value. The Borrower shall not permit the ratio of (i) Unsecured Indebtedness of Xxxxxx REIT and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis (which shall include Xxxxxx REIT’s Ownership Share of Unconsolidated Affiliates in accordance with Section 1.2), to (ii) Unencumbered Asset Value, to exceed 0.60 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter; provided that such ratio may increase to up to 0.65 to 1.00 for up to (I) four (4) consecutive calendar quarters immediately following an Acquisition that has occurred prior to the effectiveness of all of the Private Placement Amendments, or (II) two (2) consecutive calendar quarters immediately following a Material Acquisition that has occurred following the effectiveness of all of the Private Placement Amendments (it being understood and agreed that any permitted increase in such ratio as a result of clause (I) for any Acquisition that occurred prior to the effectiveness of all of the Private Placement Amendments shall terminate upon the effectiveness of all of the Private Placement Amendments), in all such cases of the foregoing clauses (I) and (II), not more than twice during the term of this Agreement. For purposes of this covenant, (A) Unsecured Indebtedness shall be adjusted by deducting therefrom the amount of unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents in excess of $30,000,000 to the extent that there is an equivalent amount of Unsecured
-14-
Exhibit 10.1
Indebtedness that matures within twenty-four (24) months from the applicable date of the calculation, and (B) Unencumbered Asset Value shall be adjusted by deducting therefrom the amount by which Unsecured Indebtedness is adjusted pursuant to clause (A) above (to the extent such cash and Cash Equivalents were included in such calculation of Unencumbered Asset Value).
2.8 Commitment Reduction and Replacement of Schedule 1.1(a). In accordance with Section 2.13 of the Credit Agreement upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, the aggregate unused amount of the Revolving Commitments is hereby permanently reduced by $100,000,000.00, which reduction shall be applied pro rata to the Commitments of each Class (and the reduction of the Commitments of each such Class shall be applied pro rata to the Commitments of each Revolving Lender of such Class) such that immediately following the effectiveness of this Section, (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving USD Tranche Commitment equals $675,000,000.00, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Multicurrency Tranche Commitment equals $225,000,000, and (iii) the amount of each such Class of Commitments held by each Revolving Lender of such Class is as shown on Schedule 1.1(a) attached to this Amendment. The current Schedule 1.1(a) attached to the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the Schedule 1.1(a) attached to this Amendment.
