SECTION 1. | AMENDMENTS. |
Section 1.1. Section 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be and is hereby amended by replacing such Section in its entirety with the following:
Section 10.2. Merger, Consolidation, Etc. Neither the Parent nor the Issuer will, nor will they permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, consolidate with or merge with any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets in a single transaction or series of transactions to any Person unless:
(a) the successor formed by such consolidation or the survivor of such merger or the Person that acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the assets of the Parent, the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor as an entirety, as the case may be, shall be a solvent corporation or limited liability company, or limited partnership organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof including the District of Columbia (such successor, the “Successor”), and, if the Parent (other than in a transaction including the Issuer), the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor (other than in a transaction involving the Parent, the Issuer or another Subsidiary Guarantor) as
applicable, is not such Successor, (i) such Successor shall have executed and delivered to each holder of any Notes its assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition of this Agreement (in a transaction involving the Parent or Issuer), the Affiliate Guaranty (in a transaction involving a Guarantor), and the Notes (in a transaction involving the Issuer) and (ii) such Successor shall have caused to be delivered to each holder of any Notes an opinion of nationally recognized independent counsel, or other independent counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders, to the effect that all agreements or instruments effecting such assumption are enforceable in accordance with their terms and comply with the terms hereof;
(b) the Parent and each other Subsidiary Guarantor under any Affiliate Guaranty that is outstanding at the time such transaction or each transaction in such a series of transactions occurs reaffirms its obligations under such Affiliate Guaranty in writing at such time pursuant to documentation that is reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders; provided that such documentation is not required in any transaction in which a Subsidiary Guarantor consolidates with or merges with any other Subsidiary Guarantor or conveys, transfers or leases all or substantially all of its assets in a single transaction or series of transactions to another Subsidiary Guarantor; and
(c) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction or each transaction in any such series of transactions, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
Without limiting the provisions of Section 9.7(b), no such conveyance, transfer or lease of substantially all of the assets of the Parent, the Issuer or such other Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have the effect of releasing the Parent, the Issuer or such other Guarantor, as the case may be, or any successor corporation, limited liability company or limited partnership that shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Section 10.2 from its liability under this Agreement or the Notes or the Affiliate Guaranties, as the case may be.
Section 1.2. Section 10.6 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be and is hereby amended by replacing such Section in its entirety with the following:
Section 10.6. Financial Covenants. (i) The Parent and the Issuer shall not, directly or indirectly, permit:
(a) Maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio to exceed sixty percent (60%); provided that, if any Material Acquisition shall occur and the Consolidated Leverage Ratio shall have been less than sixty percent (60%) for at least one full fiscal quarter immediately preceding the proposed Consolidated Leverage Ratio Covenant Holiday, then, at the election of the Issuer upon delivery of prior written notice to the holders of Notes, concurrently with or prior to the delivery of a compliance certificate pursuant to Section 7.2 and provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio covenant level shall be increased to sixty-five (65%) for the fiscal quarter in which such Material Acquisition is consummated and the three (3) fiscal quarters immediately following the fiscal quarter in which such Material Acquisition is consummated (any such increase a “Consolidated Leverage Ratio Covenant Holiday”); provided further that not more than two (2) Consolidated Leverage Ratio Covenant Holidays may be elected by the Issuer during the term of this Agreement; and provided further that the Company shall be obligated to pay the Incremental Interest during any Consolidated Leverage Ratio Covenant Holiday as provided for in clause (ii) below;
(b) Maximum Secured Leverage Ratio. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the Secured Leverage Ratio to exceed forty percent (40%);
STAG INDUSTRIAL OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.
THIRD AMENDMENT TO APRIL 2014 NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
(c) Maximum Unencumbered Leverage Ratio. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the Unencumbered Leverage Ratio to exceed sixty percent (60%); provided that, if any Material Acquisition shall occur and the Unencumbered Leverage Ratio shall have been less than sixty percent (60%) for at least one full fiscal quarter immediately preceding the proposed Unencumbered Leverage Ratio Covenant Holiday, then, at the election of the Issuer upon delivery of prior written notice to the holders of the Notes, concurrently with or prior to the delivery of a compliance certificate pursuant to Section 7.2, and provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the maximum Unencumbered Leverage Ratio covenant level shall be increased to sixty-five (65%) for the fiscal quarter in which such Material Acquisition is consummated and the three (3) fiscal quarters immediately following the fiscal quarter in which such Material Acquisition is consummated (any such increase an “Unencumbered Leverage Ratio Covenant Holiday”); provided further that not more than two (2) Unencumbered Leverage Ratio Covenant Holidays may be elected by the Issuer during the term of this Agreement; and provided further that the Company shall be obligated to pay the Incremental Interest during any Unencumbered Leverage Ratio Covenant Holiday as provided for in clause (ii) below;
(d) Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the Interest Coverage Ratio for the Parent, on a consolidated basis, for the fiscal quarter then ended, to be less than one hundred and fifty percent (150%); and
(e) Minimum Unsecured Interest Coverage Ratio. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the Unsecured Interest Coverage Ratio to be less than or equal to one hundred and seventy‑five percent (175%).
(ii) Incremental Interest. (A) If the Consolidated Leverage Ratio or the Unencumbered Leverage Ratio exceeds, or both exceed, sixty percent (60%) as permitted by Section 10.6(a) or (c), as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(a), the interest rate payable on the Notes shall be increased by 0.25% per annum (the “Incremental Interest”). Such Incremental Interest shall begin to accrue on the first day of the fiscal quarter following the fiscal quarter in respect of which such Officer’s Certificate was delivered, and shall continue to accrue until the Issuer has provided an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to Section 7.2(a) demonstrating that, as of the last day of the fiscal quarter in respect of which such Officer’s Certificate is delivered, neither the Consolidated Leverage Ratio nor the Unencumbered Leverage Ratio, is more than sixty percent (60%). In the event such Officer’s Certificate is delivered evidencing that neither the Consolidated Leverage Ratio nor the Unencumbered Leverage Ratio is more than sixty percent (60%), the Incremental Interest shall cease to accrue on the last day of the fiscal quarter in respect of which such Officer’s Certificate is delivered.
(B) The Issuer shall pay to each holder of a Note the amount attributable to the Incremental Interest (the “Incremental Interest Payment”) which shall be the product of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Notes held by such holder (or its predecessor(s) in interest) as of the first day that Incremental Interest begins to accrue pursuant to Section 10.6(ii)(A) above, (ii) 0.25% (to reflect the Incremental Interest) and (iii) 0.25 (to reflect that the Incremental Interest is calculated quarterly). The Incremental Interest Payment due, if any, shall be paid in conjunction with the semiannual interest payments due under the Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to each holder of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(C) For avoidance of doubt, no Incremental Interest will be used in calculating any Make-Whole Amount. Furthermore, any Incremental Interest due as a result of a Consolidated Leverage Ratio Holiday is not cumulative with any Incremental Interest due as a result of an Unencumbered Leverage
STAG INDUSTRIAL OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.
THIRD AMENDMENT TO APRIL 2014 NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Ratio Holiday and vice versa; therefore, the maximum Incremental Interest due hereunder is 0.25% per annum.
(D) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Primary Credit Facility includes provisions related to a Consolidated Leverage Ratio Covenant Holiday or an Unencumbered Leverage Ratio Covenant Holiday (including any substantially similar concepts and any related definitions, the “Bank Covenant Holiday Provisions”) and such Bank Covenant Holiday Provisions are, after the date of Closing, deleted or made more favorable to the lenders thereunder, such deletion or favorable amendments will be incorporated herein, mutatis mutandi, as if set forth fully in this Agreement, effective beginning on the date on which such deletion or amendment occurs.
(iii) Only for so long as such covenants are also included in any Primary Credit Facility, the Parent and the Issuer shall not, directly or indirectly, permit:
(a) Maximum Secured Recourse Debt. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the Secured Recourse Debt Ratio to exceed seven‑and‑one‑half percent (7.5%);
(b) Minimum Fixed Charge Ratio. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the Fixed Charge Ratio for the Parent, on a consolidated basis, for the fiscal quarter then ended, annualized, to be less than or equal to one hundred and fifty percent (150%);
(c) Minimum Tangible Net Worth. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter, the Tangible Net Worth of Parent, on a consolidated basis, to be less than the sum of (i) $996,305,000, plus (ii) seventy‑five percent (75%) of net proceeds of any Equity Issuances received by Parent or Issuer after December 18, 2014 (other than proceeds received within ninety (90) days after the redemption, retirement or repurchase of ownership or equity interests in Issuer or Parent, up to the amount paid by Issuer or Parent in connection with such redemption, retirement or repurchase, where, for the avoidance of doubt, the net effect is that neither Issuer nor Parent shall have increased its Tangible Net Worth as a result of any such proceeds); and
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, if any of Sections 10.6(iii)(a), (b) or (c) are subsequently amended or modified in the Primary Credit Facility, such amendment or modification shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this Agreement, mutatis mutandi, as if set forth fully in this Agreement, effective beginning on the date on which such amendment or modification is effective in the Primary Credit Facility, provided, further, that in the event that any fee is paid to any party under the Primary Credit Facility solely to effectuate any such amendment or modification, the holders of the Notes shall have received an equivalent fee on a pro rata basis prior to or concurrently with the effectiveness of any such amendment or modification. “Equivalent fee” means an amount equal to the percentage determined by dividing the fee paid under the Primary Credit Facility by the principal outstanding amount under the Primary Credit Facility multiplied by the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes.
Section 1.3. Schedule B of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be and is hereby amended by deleting and replacing the following definitions as set forth below:
“Acceptable Ground Lease” means a ground lease with respect to an Acceptable Property executed by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor, as lessee, that (i) has a remaining lease term (including extension or renewal rights) of at least twenty‑five (25) years, calculated as of the date the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor acquired such Acceptable Property and for which approval has been obtained, to the extent any approval is required under any Material Credit Facility, or (ii) has a bargain purchase option (as defined in accordance with GAAP).
