----------------------------
THIS FIVE YEAR GUARANTY AGREEMENT, dated as of December 23, 1997 (the
"Guaranty Agreement"), is given by
JP FOODSERVICE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Parent"), and THOSE
SUBSIDIARIES of the Borrowers identified on the signature pages hereto (together
with each other subsidiary which may become a party hereto by execution of a
Guarantor Joinder Agreement, the "Guarantors"); in favor of
----------
NATIONSBANK, N.A., a national banking association, in its capacity as agent
(in such capacity, hereinafter referred to as the "Administrative Agent") for
--------------------
the various lenders from time to time parties to that certain Five Year Credit
Agreement dated as of December 23, 1997 (such Credit Agreement, as the same may
be modified or amended from time to time, being hereinafter referred to as the
"Credit Agreement") among Xxxxxx-Xxxxxx, Inc. and JP Foodservice Distributors,
----------------
Inc. (the "Borrowers"), the Lenders party thereto, NationsBank, N.A., as
---------
Administrative Agent, NationsBanc Xxxxxxxxxx Securities, Inc. and Chase
Securities, Inc., as Co-Arrangers, The Chase Manhattan Bank, as Syndication
Agent, and Bank of America, NT & SA, as Documentation Agent (capitalized terms
used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings provided in the
Credit Agreement).
RECITALS:
--------
1. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed, subject to
certain terms and conditions, to make available certain credit facilities to the
Borrowers.
2. As a condition precedent to making such credit facilities available to
the Borrowers, the Lenders have required, among other things, the Parent and
each of the Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the
Borrowers to guarantee all of the Borrowers' obligations arising under the
Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents referred to therein.
3. Other than the Parent, each of the Guarantors is a Restricted
Subsidiary of a Borrower.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the execution and delivery by
the Lenders of the Credit Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration,
receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged, the Guarantors hereby agree as follows:
1. Guarantee of Payment. The Guarantors hereby irrevocably and
--------------------
unconditionally guarantee, jointly and severally, to the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders the prompt payment, when due, by acceleration or otherwise, of
the Borrowers' Obligations. For the purposes hereof the "Borrowers'
Obligations" means all indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of the
Borrowers under the Credit Agreement or any other of the Credit Documents to
which either Borrower is a party, now existing or hereafter arising, due or to
become due, direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, howsoever evidenced, held or acquired, as such
Borrowers' Obligations may be modified, extended, renewed or replaced from time
to time. The guaranty of the Guarantors as set forth in this Section 1 is a
guaranty of payment and not of collection.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any of
the other Credit Documents, the liability of each Guarantor with respect to the
Borrowers' Obligations guaranteed hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum
Guaranteed Amount for such Guarantor. For purposes hereof:
(i) "Maximum Guaranteed Amount" shall mean, for any Guarantor as of any
date of determination thereof, the sum of (a) with respect to each
Extension of Credit (or portion thereof) the proceeds of which are used to
make a Direct Transfer to such Guarantor, the outstanding amount of such
Extension of Credit (or such portion thereof), together with accrued and
unpaid interest thereon, plus (b) with respect to each Extension of Credit
----
(or portion thereof) the proceeds of which are not used to make a Direct
Transfer to such Guarantor, the lesser of (1) the outstanding amount of all
such Extensions of Credit (or such portions thereof), together with accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, as of the earlier of the date that enforcement
is sought against such Guarantor hereunder or the date of the commencement
of a case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in which such Guarantor is a
debtor, or (2) 95% of the Adjusted Net Worth of such Guarantor at the time
of such Extension of Credit, after deducting therefrom the amount
determined pursuant to clause (a) above.
(ii) "Extension of Credit" shall mean the making of any Loan or the
issuance, or extension of the maturity date, of any Letters of Credit.
(iii) "Direct Transfer" shall mean, in respect of any Guarantor, (a) all
loans, advances or capital contributions made to or for the benefit of such
Guarantor with proceeds of any Extension of Credit, (b) all debt securities
or other obligations of such Guarantor acquired from such Guarantor or
retired by such Guarantor with proceeds of any Extension of Credit, (c) the
fair market value of all property acquired with proceeds of any Extension
of Credit and transferred, absolutely and not as collateral, to such
Guarantor and (d) all equity securities of such Guarantor acquired from
such Guarantor with proceeds of any Extension of Credit.
(iv) "Adjusted Net Worth" shall mean, with respect to any Guarantor as of
any date of determination thereof, the excess of (a) the amount of the
"present fair saleable value" of the assets of such Guarantor as of such
date of determination, over (b) the amount of all "liabilities, contingent
or otherwise", of such Guarantor as of such date of determination, as such
quoted terms are determined in accordance with applicable Federal and state
laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors. In determining
the Adjusted Net Worth of any Guarantor for purposes of calculating the
Maximum Guaranteed Amount for such Guarantor in respect of any Extension of
Credit, the liabilities of such Guarantor to be used in such determination
pursuant to clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall in any event include
the liabilities of such Guarantor hereunder in respect of all Extensions
2
of Credit other than the Extension of Credit in respect of which such
calculation is being made.
2. Release of Collateral, Parties Liable, etc. Each of the Guarantors
-------------------------------------------
agrees that the time or place of payment of the Borrowers' Obligations may be
changed or extended, in whole or in part, to a time certain or otherwise, and
may be renewed or accelerated, in whole or in part; that the Borrowers may be
granted indulgences generally; that any provisions of the Credit Documents or
any other documents executed in connection with this transaction may be
modified, amended or waived; that any party liable for the payment of the
Borrowers' Obligations may be granted indulgences or released; and that any
deposit balance for the credit of the Borrowers or any other party liable for
the payment of the Borrowers' Obligations may be released, in whole or in part,
at, before and/or after the stated, extended or accelerated maturity of the
Borrowers' Obligations, all without notice to or further assent by the
Guarantors, or any of them, who shall remain bound thereon, notwithstanding any
such extension, renewal, acceleration, modification, indulgence or release.
3. Waiver of Rights. Each of the Guarantors expressly waives: (a)
----------------
notice of acceptance of this Guaranty Agreement by the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders and of all extensions of credit to the Borrowers by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender; (b) presentment and demand for payment of
any of the Borrowers' Obligations; (c) protest and notice of dishonor or of
default to such Guarantor or to any other party with respect to the Borrowers'
Obligations or with respect to any security therefor; (d) all other notices to
which such Guarantor might otherwise be entitled; (e) demand for payment under
this Guaranty Agreement; and (f) any right to assert against the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, as a defense, counterclaim, set-off or cross-claim, any
defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim or claim which such
Guarantor may now or hereafter have against the Administrative Agent or any
Lender or the Borrowers, but such waiver shall not prevent such Guarantor from
asserting against the Administrative Agent or any Lender in a separate action,
any claim, action, cause of action, or demand that such Guarantor might have,
whether or not arising out of this Guaranty Agreement.
4. Primary Liability of Guarantors. Each of the Guarantors agrees that
-------------------------------
this Guaranty Agreement may be enforced by the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders without the necessity at any time of having recourse to the Borrowers
under the Credit Agreement or otherwise, and each of the Guarantors hereby
waives the right to require the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to proceed
against the Borrowers or any other person (including a co-guarantor) or to
require the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to pursue any other remedy or
enforce any other right. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that it shall
have no right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity whatsoever for the
Borrowers' Obligations, so long as any amounts payable to the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders in respect of the Borrowers' Obligations shall remain
outstanding and until all of the Commitments under the Credit Agreement shall
have been terminated. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that nothing
contained herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or the Lenders from
suing the Borrowers with respect to their obligations under the Credit Agreement
or from exercising any other rights available to the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders under the Credit Agreement if neither the Borrowers nor the
3
Guarantors timely performs the obligations of the Borrowers thereunder, and the
exercise of any of the aforesaid rights shall not constitute a discharge of any
Guarantor's obligations hereunder; it being the purpose and intent of each of
the Guarantors that such Guarantor's obligations hereunder shall be absolute,
irrevocable, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances.
Neither the Guarantors' obligations under this Guaranty Agreement nor any remedy
for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in
any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release or
limitation of the liability of the Borrowers, by reason of either Borrower's
bankruptcy or insolvency or by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of
all or any portion of the Borrowers' Obligations. Each of the Guarantors
acknowledges that the term "Borrowers' Obligations" as used in this Guaranty
Agreement includes any payments made by either Borrower to the Administrative
Agent or any Lender and subsequently recovered by such Borrower or a trustee for
such Borrower pursuant to such Borrower's bankruptcy or insolvency and that the
guaranty of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall be reinstated to the extent
of such recovery.
5. Reasonable Attorneys' Fees. If at any time or times hereafter the
--------------------------
Administrative Agent or the Lenders employ counsel to pursue collection, to
intervene, to xxx for enforcement of the terms hereof or of the Credit Agreement
or any other of the Credit Documents, or to file a petition, complaint, answer,
motion or other pleading in any suit or proceeding relating to this Guaranty
Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other of the Credit Documents, then in
such event, all of the reasonable attorneys' fees relating thereto shall be an
additional liability of the Guarantors to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders hereunder, payable on demand.
6. Set-off. Each Guarantor agrees that in the event such Guarantor fails
-------
to pay its obligations hereunder when due and payable under this Guaranty
Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have all rights of set-off to the
extent available under, and to the extent exercised in accordance with,
applicable law.
7. Term of Guarantee; Representations and Warranties. This Guaranty
-------------------------------------------------
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Borrowers'
Obligations are fully and indefeasibly paid, performed and discharged. This
Guaranty Agreement covers the Borrowers' Obligations whether presently
outstanding or arising subsequent to the date hereof including all amounts
advanced by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in stages or installments.
Each Guarantor warrants and represents to the Administrative Agent (i) that such
Guarantor is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, (ii) that such
Guarantor has all corporate powers and all material governmental licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business as now
conducted, (iii) that the execution and delivery by such Guarantor of this
Guaranty Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which it is a party and the
performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder and thereunder are
within the corporate power of such Guarantor, have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action, require no action by or in respect of, or filing
with, any governmental body, agency or official (except for any such action or
filing that has been taken and is in full force and effect) and do not
contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or
regulation or of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or other
organizational documents) of such Guarantor or of any material agreement,
4
judgment, injunction, order, decree, or other material instrument binding upon
such Guarantor or result in the creation or imposition (other than pursuant to
the Credit Documents) of any Lien on any asset of such Guarantor and (iv) that
this Guaranty Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which such Guarantor
is a party constitute valid, binding and enforceable agreements of such
Guarantor and, when executed and delivered, will constitute valid and binding
obligations of such Guarantor.
8. Further Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor agrees that
--------------------------------------
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will have no obligation to investigate
the financial condition or affairs of the Borrowers for the benefit of such
Guarantor nor to advise such Guarantor of any fact respecting, or any change in,
the financial condition or affairs of the Borrowers which might come to the
knowledge of the Administrative Agent or any Lender at any time, whether or not
the Administrative Agent or any Lender knows or believes or has reason to know
or believe that any such fact or change is unknown to such Guarantor or might
(or does) materially increase the risk of such Guarantor as guarantor or might
(or would) affect the willingness of such Guarantor to continue as guarantor
with respect to the Borrowers' Obligations.
9. Additional Liability of Guarantors. If any Guarantor is or becomes
----------------------------------
liable for any indebtedness owing by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender by endorsement or otherwise other than under this Guaranty
Agreement, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or reduced hereby
but shall have all and the same force and effect it would have had if this
Guaranty Agreement had not existed and such Guarantor's liability hereunder
shall not be in any manner impaired or reduced thereby.
10. Cumulative Rights. All rights of the Administrative Agent and the
-----------------
Lenders hereunder or otherwise arising under any documents executed in
connection with or as security for the Borrowers' Obligations are separate and
cumulative and may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently, or not
pursued, without affecting or limiting any other right of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender and without affecting or impairing the liability of any of
the Guarantors.
11. Usury. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein contained, no
-----
provision of this Guaranty Agreement shall require or permit the collection from
any Guarantor of interest in excess of the maximum rate or amount that such
Guarantor may be required or permitted to pay pursuant to any applicable law.
In the event any such interest is collected, it shall be applied in reduction of
such Guarantor's obligations hereunder, and the remainder of such excess
collected shall be returned to such Guarantor once such obligations have been
fully satisfied.
12. The Administrative Agent. In acting under or by virtue of this
------------------------
Guaranty Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all the
rights, authority, privileges and immunities provided in Article XI of the
Credit Agreement, all of which provisions are incorporated by reference herein
with the same force and effect as if set forth herein. Each of the Guarantors
hereby releases the Administrative Agent from any liability for any act or
omission
5
relating to this Guaranty Agreement, except such as may result from the
Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
13. Restricted Subsidiaries. In the event that a Guarantor shall cease to
-----------------------
be a Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement,
then such Guarantor shall, automatically and without further act on the part of
the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, be released from its obligations under
this Guaranty Agreement.
14. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty Agreement shall be binding on
----------------------
and enforceable against each Guarantor and its successors and assigns; provided
--------
that none of the Guarantors may assign or transfer any of its obligations
hereunder without prior written consent of the Required Lenders; provided
--------
further, that, except as otherwise permitted by Section 13 hereof and Section
-------
8.18 of the Credit Agreement, none of the Guarantors may be released from their
obligations under this Guaranty Agreement to the extent any such release would
constitute a substantial portion of the benefits provided by the Guarantors
taken as a whole without the consent of each Lender affected thereby. This
Guaranty Agreement is intended for and shall inure to the benefit of the
Administrative Agent and each Lender and each and every person who shall from
time to time be or become the owner or holder of any of the Borrowers'
Obligations, and each and every reference herein to "Administrative Agent" or
"Lender" shall include and refer to each and every successor or assignee of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender at any time holding or owning any part of or
interest in any part of the Borrowers' Obligations. This Guaranty Agreement
shall be transferable and negotiable with the same force and effect, and to the
same extent, that the Borrowers' Obligations are transferable and negotiable, it
being understood and stipulated that upon assignment or transfer by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender of any of the Borrowers' Obligations the
legal holder or owner of the Borrowers' Obligations (or a part thereof or
interest therein thus transferred or assigned by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender) shall (except as otherwise stipulated by the Administrative Agent or any
such Lender in its assignment) have and may exercise all of the rights granted
to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Guaranty Agreement to the
extent of that part of or interest in the Borrowers' Obligations thus assigned
or transferred to said person. Each Guarantor expressly waives notice of
transfer or assignment of the Borrowers' Obligations, or any part thereof, or of
the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder. Failure to give
notice will not affect the liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder.
15. Application of Payments. Each of the Administrative Agent and the
-----------------------
Lenders may apply any payments received by it from any source against that
portion of the Borrowers' Obligations (principal, interest, court costs,
attorneys' fees or other) in such priority and fashion as it may deem
appropriate.
16. Modifications. Subject to the terms of Section 12.07 of the Credit
-------------
Agreement, this Guaranty Agreement and the provisions hereof may be changed,
discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by each of the
Guarantors affected thereby and the Administrative Agent.
6

------------
made without set-off or counterclaim. All payments by the Guarantors hereunder

organized or operating in connection with this Guaranty Agreement or any
political subdivision thereof or (ii) as a result of a present or former
connection between the jurisdiction of the governmental or taxing authority
imposing such taxes and the Lender. If the Guarantors shall be required to
withhold or deduct Taxes (other than U.S. Taxes as defined in Section 4.05 of
the Credit Agreement) from any sum payable hereunder, (i) the sum payable shall
be increased as may be necessary so that the amount received is equal to the sum
which would have been received had no withholdings or deductions been made, (ii)
the Guarantors shall make such necessary withholdings or deductions and (iii)
the Guarantors shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant
authority according to applicable law so that the Lenders shall not be required
to make any deduction or payment of Taxes. Notwithstanding anything contained
in this Section, the Guarantors shall not be required to make payment hereunder
to the extent such amounts relate to any period prior to the date that is 90
days prior to the date that the Guarantors first receive notice from such Lender
requesting payment of any such additional amounts.
7
19. Severability. In the event that any provision hereof shall be deemed
------------
to be invalid by reason of the operation of any law or by reason of the
interpretation placed thereon by any court, this Guaranty Agreement shall be
construed as not containing such provision, but only as to such jurisdictions
where such law or interpretation is operative, and the invalidity of such
provision shall not affect the validity of any remaining provision hereof, and
any and all other provisions hereof which are otherwise lawful and valid shall
remain in full force and effect.
