(a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date, request an increase in any Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed for all Revolving Credit Facilities the Incremental Amount from one or more Revolving Credit Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such increased Revolving Credit Commitments in their own discretion; provided that on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Revolving Credit Commitments (assuming for purposes of this Section 3.3 that such
3
increased Revolving Credit Commitments established at such time are fully funded) and the use of proceeds thereof, the Borrower is in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 9.1, as of the latest Measurement Period; and provided further that;
(ii) the increased Revolving Credit Commitments shall have the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect and subject to such increase (other than fees, maturity (which may be no earlier than the Revolving Facility Termination Date for the Original Revolving Credit Commitments) and interest rate margins, which shall be as agreed between the Borrower and those lenders providing the additional Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 3.3);
2.3 Amendments to Section 5.5. Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting a new clause (f) thereto as follows, pursuant to clause (d) of the third to last paragraph of Section 12.1 of the Credit Agreement:
(f) If on any date, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the sum of (x) the L/C Obligations, plus (y) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time plus (z) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans under a Facility then outstanding would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment for such Facility (the “Revolving Credit Exposure”) on such date, the Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of any such Swing Line Loans and Revolving Credit Loans on such date (and, to the extent after giving effect to such prepayment, the Revolving Credit Exposure still exceeds such Total Revolving Credit Commitment, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent (or an account in the name of the Administrative Agent with another institution designated by the Administrative Agent)) such that the aggregate amount so prepaid by the Borrower and cash collateral so deposited in an account with the Administrative Agent (or an account in the name of the Administrative Agent with another institution designated by the Administrative Agent) shall be sufficient to reduce the Revolving Credit Exposure to an amount not to exceed such Total Revolving Credit Commitment on such date together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans prepaid. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 5.5(f) to the Borrower and the Lenders.
Section 3. Replacement Revolving Facility.
3.1 Replacement Revolving Commitments.
(a) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver in writing of each condition precedent set forth in Section 4 hereof, and in reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Replacement Amendment, each Replacement Revolving Lender hereby agrees (x) to provide its respective Replacement Revolving Commitment to the Borrower in a principal amount not to exceed the amount set forth opposite such Replacement Revolving Lender’s name in Schedule A attached hereto and (y) that on the Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date all of its Revolving Credit Commitment under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be Refinanced and replaced in their entirety with its respective Replacement Revolving Commitment hereunder. The Administrative Agent has notified each Replacement Revolving Lender of its allocated Replacement Revolving Commitment, and each Replacement Revolving
4
Lender is a signatory to this Replacement Amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender under the Existing Credit Agreement that is not signatory to this Replacement Amendment (such Revolving Credit Commitments, the “Remaining Commitments”) shall not be Refinanced or replaced by a Replacement Revolving Commitment hereunder, shall be unchanged in all respects by this Replacement Amendment and is not a Series B Replacement Revolving Commitment.
(b) Class of Revolving Credit Loans. The Replacement Revolving Commitments hereunder will constitute a new class of Revolving Credit Commitments and shall be a separate “Facility” for purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the terms set forth herein and in the Credit Agreement and will constitute “Revolving Credit Commitments” and “Commitments”. The amendments pursuant to this Replacement Amendment constitute a “Replacement Revolving Facility Amendment” under the Credit Agreement and with effect from the Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date, any Loans made pursuant to the Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be “Revolving Credit Loans”. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date, there shall continue to be a single Swing Line Commitment and L/C Commitment, shared ratably by Lenders with Remaining Commitments and Lenders with Replacement Revolving Commitments in accordance with their Commitments.
(c) Agreements of the Replacement Revolving Lenders. Each Replacement Revolving Lender agrees that (i) effective on and at all times after the Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date, such Replacement Revolving Lender will be bound by all obligations of a Lender and a Revolving Credit Lender under the Credit Agreement and (ii) on the Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date, (A) for the avoidance of doubt, immediately after the effectiveness thereof, the allocation of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, L/C Obligations and Swing Line Exposure as of the Replacement Revolving Credit Effective Date shall be unchanged from the allocations under the Original Revolving Credit Commitments immediately prior to giving effect to the Replacement Revolving Commitments hereunder, (B) each Replacement Revolving Commitment shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Credit Commitment and each loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Credit Loan and other than as provided herein have the same terms as all other Revolving Credit Loans and (C) each Replacement Revolving Lender shall become a Revolving Credit Lender with respect to the Replacement Revolving Commitments and all matters relating thereto. Each Replacement Revolving Lender (i) confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with copies of the financial statements referred to therein and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Replacement Amendment; (ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or agent thereunder and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender and a Revolving Credit Lender. To the extent any loss or expense is incurred as
5
a consequence of the transactions contemplated hereby, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders party hereto hereby waive the benefits of Section 5.14 of the Credit Agreement with respect to its Revolving Credit Loans.
(d) Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Replacement Revolving Commitments (i) to refinance and replace each Replacement Revolving Lender’s existing Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) to finance the working capital needs and general corporate purposes of Parent, Holdings, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and (iii) to pay fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing and the preparation and negotiation of this Replacement Amendment.
(e) Credit Agreement Governs. Except as otherwise stated herein (which modifications are permitted by Section 3.4 of the Credit Agreement), the terms of the Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be the same as the terms of the Original Revolving Credit Commitments as set forth in the Credit Agreement.
(f) Pari Passu; Maturity. The Replacement Revolving Commitments shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Original Revolving Credit Commitments and mature on the same date that the Original Revolving Credit Commitments mature. For the avoidance of doubt, the Replacement Revolving Commitments shall share in mandatory prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans under Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement on a pro rata basis with the Original Revolving Credit Commitments and in voluntary prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans under Section 5.4 of the Credit Agreement on a pro rata basis with the Original Revolving Credit Commitments, except for mandatory prepayments in connection with the termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Facility, which termination or reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments may be made on a non-pro rata basis among Facilities in accordance with Section 5.3 of the Credit Agreement.
Section 4. Conditions Precedent.
