Each capitalized term used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to such term in the Existing Credit Agreement.
RECITALS
A.Pursuant to the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents, the Lenders have provided Revolving Commitments to Borrower in an aggregate amount equal to nine hundred million dollars ($900,000,000.00), which Loans borrowed pursuant to such Revolving Commitments may bear interest, and are permitted to incur fees, commissions or other amounts, based on CDOR Rate in accordance with the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents.
B.An Early Opt-In Election has occurred with respect to CDOR Rate and the applicable parties to the Existing Credit Agreement have determined, in accordance with the Existing Credit Agreement, that CDOR Rate should be replaced with Term XXXXX Reference Rate (together with the applicable Benchmark Replacement Adjustment) as the Benchmark Replacement therefor, in accordance with the definition thereof, for purposes of the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including for settings of Benchmark rates that occur on or after the Benchmark Transition Start Date (which date shall be the Transition Date as defined below), pursuant to a Benchmark Replacement amendment being implemented in accordance with the Benchmark Replacement provisions set forth in Section 5.2(b) of the Existing Credit Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Xxxxxxxx and Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:
1.AMENDMENT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Existing Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Existing Credit Agreement and each other applicable Loan Document are each hereby amended and modified to give effect to the CDOR to XXXXX Replacement (defined below) on and as of the Third Modification Effective Date (defined below).
2.NOTICE. This Agreement shall constitute all required notices pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement from Administrative Agent to Borrower and Lenders of, relating to or in connection with the CDOR to XXXXX Replacement, including, without limitation, (i) the Early Opt-In Election, (ii) the Benchmark Replacement Date and the Benchmark Transition Start Date, (iii) the implementation of Term XXXXX Reference Rate as a Benchmark Replacement, (iv) the implementation of the Term XXXXX Adjustment as the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, and (v) certain Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, in each such case, in connection with the adoption and implementation of Term XXXXX (including any applicable Benchmark Replacement Adjustment), the use and administration thereof and/or otherwise to effect the CDOR to XXXXX Replacement.
3.DISCONTINUATION OF CDOR. Notwithstanding any provision of the Existing Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, whether or not CDOR is operational, reported, published on a synthetic basis or otherwise available in the market as of the Transition Date, subject to Section 7 of this Agreement: (a) pursuant to clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” in the Existing Credit Agreement, Term XXXXX Reference Rate (defined below) constitutes the Benchmark Replacement for CDOR for all purposes under the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (such replacement, the “CDOR to XXXXX Replacement”); (b) the Term XXXXX Adjustment constitutes the
Exhibit 10.1
Benchmark Replacement Adjustment in connection with the CDOR to XXXXX Replacement; (c) no Loans shall, from and after the Transition Date bear interest based on CDOR; (d) any request for a disbursement, from and after the Transition Date, of any Loans that are to bear interest based on CDOR shall be ineffective, to the extent that any such disbursement would, but for the provisions of this Agreement, reference a setting of CDOR on or after the Transition Date; and (e) any right or option the Borrower may have to request Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars at a rate of interest based on CDOR shall be of no further force or effect, from and after the Transition Date.
4.CDOR TO XXXXX REPLACEMENT. Following the Transition Date, subject to Section 7 of this Agreement, (a) the “Benchmark” with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts denominated in Canadian Dollars or calculated with respect thereto, means Term XXXXX Reference Rate, provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to such benchmark rate (i.e., Term XXXXX Reference Rate), then the “Benchmark” with respect to Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts denominated in Canadian Dollars means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate (as applicable to the foregoing) pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(i) of the Existing Credit Agreement, (b) the use of CDOR Rate in the definitions of “Alternative Currency Interest Period,” “Alternative Currency Interest Rate,” and “Benchmark” are each hereby deleted and replaced with “Term XXXXX,” (c) the use of CDOR Rate in Section 2.1(b) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with “Adjusted Term XXXXX,” (d) the use of CDOR Rate in Section 5.2(b)(iv) is hereby deleted and replaced with “Term XXXXX Reference Rate,” (e) unless the context otherwise requires, references to “CDOR” in the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be references to Adjusted Term XXXXX, and (f) the following revisions shall be made:
The defined term “RFR Business Day” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
““RFR Business Day” means, for any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts denominated in, or calculated with respect to, (a) Dollars, any day except for (i) a Saturday, (ii) a Sunday or (iii) a day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in United States government securities, (b) Canadian Dollars, any day except for (i) a Saturday, (ii) a Sunday, or (iii) a day on which banks are closed for general business in Toronto, and (c) Sterling, any day except for (i) a Saturday, (ii) a Sunday or (iii) a day on which banks are closed for general business in London; provided, that for purposes of notice requirements in this Agreement, in each case, such day is also a Business Day.”
Section 2.1(b)(iv) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“(iv) (I) 7:00 a.m. Pacific time at least three (3) RFR Business Days prior to a borrowing of Revolving Loans that are to be Multicurrency Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars and (II) 11:00 a.m. Eastern time at least five (5) RFR Business Days prior to a borrowing of Revolving Loans that are to be Multicurrency Loans denominated in Sterling, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing or Alternative Currency Credit Notice.”
Section 2.9(a) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“(a) Optional. Subject to Section 5.4, the Borrower may prepay any Loan at any time without premium or penalty. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice (or at least three (3) RFR Business Days for Multicurrency Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, or five (5) RFR Business Days for Multicurrency Loans denominated in Sterling) (or in each case, such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) of the prepayment of any Loan (which notice shall specify the Type and Class of Loan being repaid); provided that such notice may be revocable at the Borrower’s discretion. Each voluntary prepayment of Loans denominated in Dollars or any Alternative Currency of the same Class shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (or in the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans or all Term Loans of a given Class, as applicable, then outstanding).”
Section 2.10(b) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
Exhibit 10.1
“(b) Multicurrency Loans. So long as no Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any Multicurrency Loan, select a new Interest Period for such Multicurrency Loan. Each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period. Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower giving to the Administrative Agent an Alternative Currency Credit Notice not later than 2:00 p.m. at least (I) three (3) RFR Business Days prior to the date of any such Continuation for Multicurrency Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, and five (5) RFR Business Days prior to the date of any such Continuation for Multicurrency Loans denominated in Sterling. Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by facsimile, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the Multicurrency Loan, Class and portion thereof subject to such Continuation, and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder. If no Alternative Currency Interest Period is specified in the Alternative Currency Credit Notice with respect to an Alternative Currency to which an Alternative Currency Interest Period applies, then Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Alternative Currency Interest Period of one month’s duration. Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Multicurrency Tranche Lender of such proposed Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any applicable Multicurrency Loan in accordance with this Section, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, continue as a Multicurrency Loan with an Interest Period of one month unless such Multicurrency Loan is repaid, with all interest accrued thereon, on the last day of the applicable Interest Period; provided, however, that if an Event of Default exists, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, or earlier if required by the Administrative Agent subject to Section 5.4, Convert into a Base Rate Loan, denominated in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Multicurrency Loan so Converted, notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 2.10(b) or the Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section.”
5.Intentionally Omitted.
6.Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes for Adjusted Term XXXXX Benchmark. In connection with the use or administration of Adjusted Term XXXXX, or any rates derived from the foregoing or in connection with the foregoing or any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion in consultation with the Borrower will have the right to make further Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any of the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower and Lenders of the effectiveness of any further Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term XXXXX Reference Rate, or any rates derived from the foregoing or in connection with the foregoing or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict or impact the ability or right of the Administrative Agent to make any future modifications, supplements, amendments, technical, administrative or operational changes or other conforming changes that the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion in consultation with the Borrower determines may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of Term XXXXX (as may be adjusted by the applicable Benchmark Adjustment) and to permit the use and administration thereof by the Administrative Agent to the extent permitted pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
7.Delayed Transition for Prior Interest Period. The provisions in Sections 3 through 6 of this Agreement shall not apply with respect to any (i) period or determination of CDOR that (I) is or was set prior to the Transition Date and (II) is held constant for a specifically designated period (e.g., an Interest Period in effect as of the date hereof) and is not reset on a daily or substantially daily basis (disregarding day count, weekend or holiday conventions), and (ii) retroactive margin, yield, fee or commission increases available to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders as a result of any inaccuracy in any financial statement or compliance certificate that, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher interest margin or yield with respect to any Loan accruing interest based on the CDOR or any higher fee or commission for any applicable period, and in each case, the defined terms used therein and provisions with respect thereto (in each case, as in effect immediately prior to giving effect to the provisions of this Agreement on the Transition Date) shall continue in effect solely for such purpose; provided that, with respect to any such CDOR applicable to the Loans described in clause (i) of this Section 7, such CDOR shall only continue in effect in accordance with its terms until the then-current Interest Period therefor has concluded.
Exhibit 10.1
8.CERTAIN DEFINED TERMS. For the purposes of this Agreement, each of the following capitalized terms shall have the meaning given to such term below:
“Adjusted Term XXXXX” means, for purposes of any calculation, the rate per annum equal to (a) Term XXXXX for such calculation plus (b) the Term XXXXX Adjustment; provided that if Adjusted Term XXXXX as so determined shall ever be less than the Floor, then Adjusted Term XXXXX shall be deemed to be the Floor.
