For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate principal amount of Multicurrency Revolving Loans made to Offshore Borrowers shall reduce the availability of Multicurrency Revolving Loans made to Xxxxx- Xxxxxxxx and other Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrowers on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the extent of the Dollar Equivalent of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans outstanding.
(c) Refinancing Term Loans. (i) Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx, ACI and ACI NZ shall have the right at any time (so long as (x) no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default then exists and (y) Borrowers’ Agent shall have delivered to Administrative Agent a Compliance Certificate for the period of four full Fiscal Quarters immediately preceding the incurrence described below (prepared in good faith and in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 7.1(c) giving pro forma effect to such incurrence and evidencing compliance with the covenants referred to in such Compliance Certificate)), to incur loans from one or more existing Lenders and/or other Persons that are Eligible Assignees and which, in each case, agree to make such loans and commitments to make loans to Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx, ACI or ACI NZ as applicable (the “Refinancing Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the aggregate amount (together with accrued interest, premium and fees in respect thereof) of Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans and Tranche C Term Loans theretofore made to such Borrower and thereafter repaid (or to be repaid with the proceeds of such Refinancing Term Loans). Refinancing Term Loans may be incurred as one or more tranches (of at least $150,000,000, or if less, the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans to be refinanced) of Refinancing Term Loans as determined by Administrative Agent that are pari passu in all respects with, have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity of not less than, have a final maturity no earlier than and shall otherwise be (except as to pricing and fees) on terms and conditions substantially similar to, the applicable tranche of Term Loans such tranche of Refinancing Term Loans is to replace or refinance.
(ii) If Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx, ACI or ACI NZ desires to incur Refinancing Term Loans, Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx, ACI or ACI NZ, as applicable, will enter into an amendment with the applicable lenders (which shall upon execution thereof become Lenders hereunder if not theretofore Lenders) to provide for such Refinancing Term Loans, which amendment shall set forth any terms and conditions of the Refinancing Term Loans not covered by this Agreement as agreed by Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx, ACI or ACI NZ, as applicable, and such Lenders, and shall provide for the issuance of promissory notes to evidence the Refinancing Term Loans if requested by the lenders advancing Refinancing Term Loans (which notes shall constitute Notes for purposes of this Agreement), with such amendment to be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agents and consistent with the terms of this Section 2.1(c)(ii) and of the other provisions of this Agreement. Borrowers shall, and shall cause the other Loan Parties to, execute and deliver such documents and instruments and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with the Refinancing Term Loans. In addition, any Lenders providing Refinancing Term Loans shall become bound by the Re-Allocation Agreement in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders and Issuing Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to enter into any amendment or supplement to the Re-Allocation Agreement as the Administrative Agent deem necessary or appropriate in order to give effect to the foregoing. No consent of any Lender (other than any Lender making Refinancing Term Loans) is required to permit the Loans contemplated by this Section 2.1(c)(ii) or the aforesaid amendment to effectuate the Refinancing Term Loans. No Lender shall have any obligation, whether express or implied, to commit to provide any Refinancing Term Loans. This Section 2.1 shall supersede any provisions contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 12.1.
(d) Domestic Overdraft Account. (i) The Lenders agree that Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx and Administrative Agent may establish and maintain the Domestic Overdraft Account to be established pursuant to the Domestic Overdraft Agreement; provided that (x) the Domestic Overdraft Amount shall not exceed at any time $100,000,000, and (y) no extension of credit under the Domestic Overdraft Agreement shall be made if the Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitments equal less than zero. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject, however, to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1(b)(ii) with respect to the making of Multicurrency Revolving Loans), the Lenders and Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx further agree that Administrative Agent at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may, upon notice to Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx and Multicurrency Revolving Lenders, require each Multicurrency Revolving Lender (including Administrative Agent) on one Business Day’s notice to make a Multicurrency Revolving Loan on behalf of Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx in an amount equal to that Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share, or, in the sole and absolute discretion of Administrative Agent, require each other Multicurrency Revolving Lender to purchase a participation in amounts due with respect to the Domestic Overdraft Amount in an amount equal to that Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Domestic Overdraft Amount; provided, however, that the obligation of each such Lender to make each such Multicurrency Revolving Loan on behalf of Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx is subject to the condition that at the time such extension of credit under the Domestic Overdraft Agreement was made the duly authorized officer of Administrative Agent responsible for the administration of Administrative Agent’s credit relationship with Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx believed in good faith that (x) no Event of Default had occurred and was continuing or (y) any Event of Default that had occurred and was continuing had been waived by Requisite Lenders (or, if applicable under Section 12.1, all Lenders or all Lenders directly affected, as applicable) at the time such extension of credit under the Domestic Overdraft Agreement was made.
(ii) In the case of Multicurrency Revolving Loans made by Lenders other than Administrative Agent under Section 2.1(d)(i), each such Lender shall make the amount of its Multicurrency Revolving Loan available to Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.8.
The proceeds of such Multicurrency Revolving Loans shall be immediately delivered to Administrative Agent (and not to Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx or any other Loan Party) and applied to repay the Domestic Overdraft Amount. On the day such Multicurrency Revolving Loans are made, Administrative Agent’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Domestic Overdraft Amount being refunded shall be deemed to be paid with the proceeds of a Multicurrency Revolving Loan made by Administrative Agent and such portion of the Domestic Overdraft Amount deemed to be so paid shall no longer be outstanding.
(iii) Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx authorizes Administrative Agent to charge its account with Administrative Agent (up to the amount available in such account) in order to immediately pay Administrative Agent the amount of the Domestic Overdraft Amount to be refunded to the extent amounts received from Lenders, including amounts deemed to be received from Administrative Agent, are not sufficient to repay in full the Domestic Overdraft Amount to be refunded and provided further that Administrative Agent shall give Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx notice of such charges prior thereto or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.
(iv) Each Multicurrency Revolving Loan made in accordance with this Section 2.1(d) shall be made as a Base Rate Loan. If any portion of any such amount paid to Administrative Agent should be recovered by or on behalf of Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx from Administrative Agent in bankruptcy, by assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all Multicurrency Revolving Lenders in the manner contemplated by Section 4.5.
(v) In the event that Administrative Agent requires the other Multicurrency Revolving Lenders to purchase participations in the Domestic Overdraft Amount, payment for such participations shall be made directly to Administrative Agent at the applicable Payment Office not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the Business Day next succeeding the date notice to purchase such participations is given. Except as provided above in this Section 2.1(d) (and, in the case of the obligation to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans, except for the satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 5.1 and 5.2) each Lender’s obligation to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.1(d) and to purchase participations in the Domestic Overdraft Amount pursuant to this Section 2.1(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (v) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against Administrative Agent, any Loan Party or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (w) the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default; (x) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party; (y) any breach of this Agreement by any Loan Party or any other Multicurrency Revolving Lender; or (z) any other circumstance, happening, or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that in the event that the obligations of Lenders to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans are terminated in accordance with Article X, Lenders having a Multicurrency Revolving Commitment shall thereafter only be obligated to purchase participations in the Domestic Overdraft Amount as provided in this Section 2.1(d). In the event that any Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of any of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Loans required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.1(d) or the amount of any participations in the Domestic Overdraft Amount which are required to be purchased from Administrative Agent by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1(d), Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. Nothing in this Section 2.1(d) shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Lender to recover from Administrative Agent any amounts made available by such Lender to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.1(d) in respect of any extension of credit by Administrative Agent under the Domestic Overdraft
Agreement in the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment that such extension of credit by Administrative Agent constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Administrative Agent.
(vi) Any notice given by Administrative Agent to Lenders pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph shall be concurrently given by Administrative Agent to Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx or Borrowers’ Agent.
(e) Offshore Overdraft Accounts. (i) The Lenders agree that ACI, O-I Canada, OIEG and OI Europe may each establish and maintain an Offshore Overdraft Account with an Offshore Overdraft Provider pursuant to an Offshore Overdraft Agreement; provided that (a) (1) the Australian Overdraft Amount shall not exceed at any time the Offshore Currency Equivalent of $30,000,000, (2) the Canadian Overdraft Amount shall not exceed at any time the Offshore Currency Equivalent of $20,000,000 and (3) the aggregate of the Dutch Overdraft Amount and the Swiss Overdraft Amount shall not exceed at any time the Offshore Currency Equivalent of $60,000,000, and (b) in no event shall an Offshore Borrower request an extension of credit under an Offshore Overdraft Agreement (and no Offshore Overdraft Provider shall be obligated to extend credit under an Offshore Overdraft Agreement) if, after giving effect to such extension of credit the Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitments or such Borrower’s Available Multicurrency Revolving Sublimit would equal less than zero.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject, however, to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1(b)(ii) with respect to the making of Multicurrency Revolving Loans), Lenders and each Offshore Borrower further agree that any Offshore Overdraft Provider at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may, upon notice to the relevant Offshore Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders, require each Multicurrency Revolving Lender (including such Offshore Overdraft Provider) on three Business Days’ notice to (a) make a Multicurrency Revolving Loan in Dollars (in the case of such a Loan to O-I Canada), ADollars (in the case of such a Loan to ACI) or Euro (in the case of such a Loan to OIEG or OI Europe) in an amount equal to that Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share (determined with respect to such type of Multicurrency Revolving Commitments) of the relevant Offshore Overdraft Amount (calculated in the case of such a Loan to O-I Canada by reference to the applicable Spot Rate on the date such Multicurrency Revolving Loan is to be made) or, (b) in the event the relevant type of Multicurrency Revolving Commitment has terminated or the conditions for the making of such Multicurrency Revolving Loans under Section 5.2 are not satisfied, require each Multicurrency Revolving Lender to purchase a participation in Dollars (in the case of the Canadian Overdraft Amount), ADollars (in the case of the Australian Overdraft Amount) or Euro (in the case of the Dutch Overdraft Amount or Swiss Overdraft Amount) in amounts due with respect to the relevant Offshore Overdraft Account in an amount equal to that Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the relevant Offshore Overdraft Amount (calculated in the case of a participation in the Canadian Overdraft Amount by reference to the applicable Spot Rate on the date such participation is to be purchased); provided, however, that the obligation of each Multicurrency Revolving Lender to make each such Multicurrency Revolving Loan is subject to the condition that at the time such extension of credit under the applicable Offshore Overdraft Agreement was made the duly authorized officer of such Offshore Overdraft Provider responsible for the administration of such Offshore Overdraft Provider’s credit relationship with the relevant Offshore Borrower believed in good faith that (a) no Event of Default had occurred and was continuing, or (b) any Event of Default that had occurred and was continuing had been waived by Requisite Lenders (or, if applicable under Section 12.1, all Lenders or all Lenders with Obligations directly affected, as applicable) at the time such extension of credit under such Offshore Overdraft Agreement was made.
(iii) In the case of Multicurrency Revolving Loans or participation purchases made by Lenders other than Administrative Agent under Section 2.1(e)(ii), each such Lender shall make the amount of its Multicurrency Revolving Loan or the amount of its participation, as applicable, available to Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.8. The proceeds of such Multicurrency Revolving Loans or participation purchases shall be delivered by Administrative Agent to such Offshore Overdraft Provider (and not to any Borrower or other Loan Party) as soon as practicable and applied to repay the relevant Offshore Overdraft Amount. On the day such Multicurrency Revolving Loans are made or such participations are purchased, such Offshore Overdraft Provider’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Offshore Overdraft Amount being refunded shall be deemed to be paid with the proceeds of a Multicurrency Revolving Loan made by such Offshore Overdraft Provider and such portion of the Offshore Overdraft Amount deemed to be so paid shall no longer be outstanding.
(iv) Each Offshore Borrower authorizes the Offshore Overdraft Provider to charge such Offshore Borrower’s accounts with such Offshore Overdraft Provider (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay such Offshore Overdraft Provider the amount of the Offshore Overdraft Amount to be refunded to the extent amounts received from Lenders, including amounts deemed to be received from such Offshore Overdraft Provider, are not sufficient to repay in full the Offshore Overdraft Amount to be refunded; provided that such Offshore Overdraft Provider shall give such Offshore Borrower notice of such charges prior thereto or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.
(v) Each Multicurrency Revolving Loan made in accordance with the foregoing shall be made (x) if denominated in Dollars, as a Base Rate Loan or (y) if denominated in any other Alternative Currency, as a Eurocurrency Loan. If any portion of any such amount paid to any Offshore Overdraft Provider should be recovered by or on behalf of such Offshore Borrower from such Offshore Overdraft Provider in bankruptcy, by assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all Lenders in the manner contemplated by Section 4.5.
(vi) Except as provided above in this Section 2.1(e) (and, in the case of the obligation to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans, except for the satisfaction of the conditions specified in Sections 5.1 and 5.2), each Lender’s obligation to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.1(e) and the obligation of each Multicurrency Revolving Lender to purchase participations in any Offshore Overdraft Amount pursuant to this Section 2.1(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against such Offshore Overdraft Provider, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (b) the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default; (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party; (d) any breach of this Agreement by any Borrower or any other Lender; or (e) any other circumstance, happening, or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that in the event that the obligations of Lenders to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans are terminated in accordance with Article X, Multicurrency Revolving Lenders shall thereafter only be obligated to purchase participations in the relevant Offshore Overdraft Amount as provided in this Section 2.1(e). In the event that any Lender fails to make available to the relevant Administrative Agent the amount of any of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Loans required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.1(e) or to Administrative Agent the amount of any participations in the relevant Offshore Overdraft Amount which are required to be purchased from such Offshore Overdraft Provider by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1(e), such Offshore Overdraft Provider shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest at the customary rate set by such Offshore Overdraft Provider for the correction of errors among banks
in the relevant jurisdiction for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. Nothing in this Section 2.1(e) shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Lender to recover from any Offshore Overdraft Provider any amounts made available by such Lender to such Offshore Overdraft Provider pursuant to this Section 2.1(e) in respect of any extension of credit by such Offshore Overdraft Provider under the relevant Offshore Overdraft Agreement in the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment that such extension of credit by such Offshore Overdraft Provider constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Offshore Overdraft Provider.
(vii) Any notice given by any Offshore Overdraft Provider to the relevant Lenders pursuant to Section 2.1(e)(ii) shall be concurrently given by such Offshore Overdraft Provider to Administrative Agent and the applicable Offshore Borrower or Borrowers’ Agent.
(viii) Not later than the end of the first and third week of each month, and promptly upon request by Administrative Agent, each Offshore Overdraft Provider shall deliver to Administrative Agent a written report in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent setting forth activity with respect to the applicable Offshore Overdraft Account since the last such report and the applicable Offshore Overdraft Amount outstanding as of the end of the period covered by such report.
(ix) Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, and no consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, shall modify, terminate or waive in any manner adverse to any Offshore Overdraft Provider any provision of this Section 2.1(e) or any other provision of this Agreement directly relating to the Offshore Overdraft Accounts or the Offshore Overdraft Amounts (including any provision directly relating to the repayment of the Offshore Overdraft Amounts with the proceeds of Multicurrency Revolving Loans or directly relating to the obligations of Lenders to purchase participations in the Offshore Overdraft Amounts) without the written concurrence of the applicable Offshore Overdraft Providers.
2.2 Evidence of Indebtedness; Repayment of Loans.
(a) Evidence of Indebtedness. At the request of any Lender (which request shall be made to Administrative Agent), each respective Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of and interest on all the Loans made to it by such Lender shall be evidenced, (1) if Term Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by such Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.2(a)(1) hereto, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith and (2) if Revolving Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by such Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.2(a)(2) hereto, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith.
(b) Notation of Payments. Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it, the Applicable Currency and tranche of such Loan and each payment in respect thereof and will, prior to any transfer of any of its Notes, endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation shall not affect any Borrower’s or any guarantor’s obligations hereunder or under the other applicable Loan Documents in respect of such Loans.
(c) Repayment of Loans. Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders (i) in respect of Revolving Loans of such Borrower, on the applicable Revolver Termination Date (or such earlier date as, and to the extent that, such Revolving Loan becomes due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan made to it by each such
Revolving Lender, in the Applicable Currency and (ii) in respect of Term Loans of such Borrower under a particular Term Facility, on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date (or such earlier date as, and to the extent that, such Term Facility becomes due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), the unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan made to it under such Term Facility by each such Term Loan Lender, in the applicable Currency. Each Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest in immediately available funds (in the Applicable Currency) at the applicable Payment Office on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Term Loans made to it from time to time from the Closing Date until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 3.1.
2.3 Minimum Amount of Each Borrowing; Maximum Number of Borrowings. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing by any Borrower hereunder shall be not less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount and, if greater, shall be in Minimum Borrowing Multiples above such minimum (or, if less, the then Total Available Dollar Revolving Commitment or the Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitment). More than one Borrowing may be incurred on any date, provided that at no time shall there be outstanding more than (i) six (6) Borrowings of Eurocurrency Loans with weekly Interest Periods in the aggregate by any Borrower (other than Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx or any Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrower) nor more than one (1) Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans with a weekly Interest Period by Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx or any Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrower nor (ii) unless approved by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, twenty-five (25) Borrowings of Eurocurrency Loans at any time.
2.4 Borrowing Options. The Term Loans and the Revolving Loans shall, at the option of the applicable Borrower except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, be (i) Base Rate Loans, (ii) Eurocurrency Loans, or (iii) part Base Rate Loans and part Eurocurrency Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Base Rate Loans may only be incurred with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars, and the Term Loans and Revolving Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies shall be Eurocurrency Loans. Any Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment by causing a foreign branch or affiliate with reasonable and appropriate capacities to fund the applicable currency and without any increased cost to Borrowers to make or continue any Loan, provided that in such event the funding of that Lender’s Loan shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, be considered to be the obligations of or to have been made by that Lender and the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay that Lender’s Loan shall nevertheless be to that Lender and shall be deemed held by that Lender, for the account of such branch or affiliate.
2.5 Notice of Borrowing. Whenever any Borrower desires to make a Borrowing of any Loan hereunder, it shall give Administrative Agent at its Notice Address (i) in the case of Dollar denominated Loans, at least one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing), given not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time), of each Base Rate Loan, and at least three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) given not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time), of each Eurocurrency Loan to be made hereunder, (ii) in the case of Alternative Currency Loans (other than ADollar denominated Loans), at least three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) given not later than 12:00 p.m. (London time); or (iii) in the case of ADollar Loans, at least four Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) given not later than 12:00 p.m. (Melbourne, Australia time); provided, however, that a Notice of Borrowing with respect to Borrowings to be made on the Closing Date may, at the discretion of Administrative Agent, be delivered later than the time specified above but no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to the Closing Date. Each such notice (each a “Notice of Borrowing”), which shall be in the form of Exhibit 2.5 hereto, shall be irrevocable, shall be deemed a representation by such Borrower that all conditions precedent to such Borrowing have been satisfied and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the
Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing stated in the relevant currency, (ii) the date of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the Facility under which the Loans being made pursuant to such Borrowing are to be Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans, Tranche C Term Loans, Dollar Revolving Loans or Multicurrency Revolving Loans, as applicable, (iv) whether such Loans are to be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans and (v) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, the Interest Period and Applicable Currency to be applicable thereto. Administrative Agent shall as promptly as practicable give each Lender that would be required to fund a portion of a proposed Borrowing written or telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) of such proposed Borrowing, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof and of the other matters covered by the Notice of Borrowing. Without in any way limiting any Borrower’s obligation to confirm in writing any telephonic notice, Administrative Agent or the respective Issuing Lender (in the case of Letters of Credit) may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice believed by Administrative Agent in good faith to be from a Responsible Officer of such Borrower prior to receipt of written confirmation. Administrative Agent’s records shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on each Borrower with respect to evidence of the terms of such telephonic Notice of Borrowing. Each Borrower hereby agrees not to dispute Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Lender’s record of the time of telephonic notice.
2.6 Public Offer.
(a) Arrangers’ Representations, Warranties and Undertakings. The Arrangers undertake, represent and warrant to ACI as follows:
(i) on behalf of ACI, the Arrangers have made invitations (in the form of a Confidential Information Memorandum and Lender Presentation) to become a Lender under the Tranche B Term Loan Facility and the Multicurrency Revolving Facility to at least ten parties, each of whom, as at the date the relevant invitation is made, the Arrangers’ relevant officers involved in the transaction contemplated by this Agreement on a day-to-day basis believe carries on the business of providing finance or investing or dealing in securities in the course of operating in financial markets for the purposes of Section 128F(3A)(a)(i) of the Tax Act;
(ii) at least 10 of the parties to whom the Arrangers have made invitations referred to in clause (i) above are not, as at the date the invitations are made, to the knowledge of the relevant officers of the Arrangers involved in the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, Associates of any of those 10 offerees or the Arrangers; and
(iii) the Arrangers have not made and will not make offers or invitations referred to in clause (i) to parties whom its relevant officers involved in the transaction contemplated by this Agreement on a day-to-day basis are aware are Offshore Associates of ACI.
(b) Lender’s Representations and Warranties. Each Person that is a Lender under the Tranche B Term Loan Facility and/or the Multicurrency Revolving Facility as of the Closing Date represents and warrants to ACI that if it received an invitation to become a Lender under the Tranche B Term Loan Facility and/or the Multicurrency Revolving Facility, at the time it received such invitation it was carrying on the business of providing finance, or investing or dealing in securities, in the course of operating in financial markets.
(c) Information. Each Arranger, and each Lender under the Tranche B Term Loan Facility and/or Multicurrency Revolving Facility, agrees to provide to ACI when reasonably requested by ACI any factual information in its possession or which it is reasonably able to provide
to assist ACI to demonstrate (based upon tax advice received by ACI) that Section 128F of the Tax Act has been satisfied with respect to the Tranche B Term Loan Facility and/or the Multicurrency Revolving Facility where to do so will not in such Arranger’s or Lender’s reasonable opinion breach any law or regulation or any duty of confidence.
(d) Co-Operation if Section 128F requirements not satisfied. If, for any reason, the requirements of Section 128F of the Tax Act have not been satisfied in relation to interest payable on Loans by ACI (except to an Offshore Associate of ACI), then on request by the Agent, an Arranger or ACI, each party shall co-operate and take steps reasonably requested with a view to satisfying those requirements.
(e) Certain Tax Provisions. Non-compliance by any Lender with this Section 2.6 will not relieve ACI of its obligations under Section 4.7(a).
2.7 Conversion or Continuation. Any Borrower may elect (i) on any Business Day to convert Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof to Eurocurrency Loans and (ii) at the end of any Interest Period with respect thereto, to convert Loans denominated in Dollars that are Eurocurrency Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to continue such Eurocurrency Loans or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period and (iii) at the end of any Interest Period with respect thereto, to continue Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans for each Interest Period therefor must be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Minimum Borrowing Amount for Eurocurrency Loans or Minimum Borrowing Multiples in excess thereof. Each conversion or continuation of Loans of a Facility shall be allocated among the Loans of the Lenders in such Facility in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.7 hereto (a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) and shall be made by giving Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Notice Address given not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) (12:00 p.m. London time in the case of a continuation of an Alternative Currency Loan) specifying (i) the amount and type of conversion or continuation, (ii) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurocurrency Loans, the Interest Period therefor, and (iii) in the case of a conversion, the date of conversion (which date shall be a Business Day). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Loans, and no continuation in whole or in part of Eurocurrency Loans other than Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, shall be permitted at any time at which an Unmatured Event of Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Borrowers shall not be entitled to specify an Interest Period in excess of one month for any Alternative Currency Loan if an Unmatured Event of Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. If, within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.7, Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the applicable Borrower containing a permitted election to continue any Eurocurrency Loans for an additional Interest Period or to convert any such Loans, then, upon the expiration of the Interest Period therefor, such Loans will be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans or, in the case of an Alternative Currency Loan, Eurocurrency Loans in the same Applicable Currency with an Interest Period of one month. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable.
2.8 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 9:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each applicable Lender will make available its Pro Rata Share of Loans, of the Borrowing requested to be made on such date in the Applicable Currency and in immediately available funds, at the Payment Office (for the account of such non-U.S. office of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may direct in the case of Eurocurrency Loans) and Administrative Agent will make available to the applicable Borrower at its Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York
time). Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of the Borrowing to be made on such date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender on the date of Borrowing, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower and, if so notified, the applicable Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the applicable Borrower interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the rate for Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, as the case may be, applicable during the period in question; provided, however, that any interest paid to Administrative Agent in respect of such corresponding amount shall be credited against interest payable by Borrower to such Lender under Section 3.1 in respect of such corresponding amount. Any amount due hereunder to Administrative Agent from any Lender which is not paid when due shall bear interest payable by such Lender, from the date due until the date paid, at the Federal Funds Rate for amounts in Dollars (and, at Administrative Agent’s cost of funds for amounts in any Alternative Currency) for the first three days after the date such amount is due and thereafter at the Federal Funds Rate (or such cost of funds rate) plus 1%, together with Administrative Agent’s standard interbank processing fee. Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Loans, amounts due with respect to its Letters of Credit (or its participations therein) and any other amounts due to it hereunder first to Administrative Agent to fund any outstanding Loans made available on behalf of such Lender by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.8 until such Loans have been funded (as a result of such assignment or otherwise) and then to fund Loans of all Lenders other than such Lender until each Lender has outstanding Loans equal to its Pro Rata Share of all Loans (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). Such Lender shall not have recourse against such Borrower with respect to any amounts paid to Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the preceding sentence, provided that, such Lender shall have full recourse against such Borrower to the extent of the amount of such Loans it has so been deemed to have made. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights which such Borrower may have against the Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
2.9 Utilization of Revolving Commitments in an Alternative Currency.
(a) Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount with respect to any (i) Credit Event comprised of a borrowing of Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency as of the requested Credit Event date, (ii) outstanding Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency as of the last Business Day of each Interest Period for such Loan, (iii) Multicurrency Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, as of each Determination Date, (iv) outstanding Revolving Loans and Unpaid Drawings denominated in an Alternative Currency as of any redenomination date pursuant to this Agreement, and (v) the Offshore Overdraft Amount as of receipt of any notice with regard to any Overdraft Agreement (other than the Domestic Overdraft Agreement) pursuant to Section 2.1(e)(viii) (each such date under clauses (i) through (v) a “Computation Date”). Upon receipt of any Notice of Borrowing, with respect to any
Revolving Loans, Administrative Agent shall, as promptly as practicable, notify each applicable Revolving Lender thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing. In the case of a Borrowing comprised of Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such notice will provide the approximate amount of each Lender’s Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, and Administrative Agent will, upon the determination of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Borrowing as specified in the Notice of Borrowing, promptly notify each Lender of the exact amount of such Lender’s Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing.
(b) A Borrower shall be entitled to request that Multicurrency Revolving Loans hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency constituting a eurocurrency (other than Dollars), in addition to the eurocurrencies specified in the definition of “Alternative Currency” herein, that in the reasonable opinion of each of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders is at such time freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets and is freely transferable and freely convertible into Dollars (an “Agreed Alternative Currency”). The applicable Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent any request for designation of an Agreed Alternative Currency in accordance with Section 12.3, to be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the date of any Borrowing hereunder proposed to be made in such Agreed Alternative Currency. Upon receipt of any such request Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Multicurrency Revolving Lenders thereof, and each applicable Multicurrency Revolving Lender will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to such request within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof. Each Multicurrency Revolving Lender may grant or accept such request in its sole discretion. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrowers’ Agent of the acceptance or rejection of any such request.
(c) In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Multicurrency Revolving Loans denominated in an Agreed Alternative Currency, the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders shall be under no obligation to make such Loans in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency as part of such Borrowing if Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days prior to the day of such Borrowing that such Lender cannot provide Loans in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency (or if any Multicurrency Revolving Lender has failed to respond to a request for an Agreed Alternative Currency pursuant to clause (b) above), in which event Administrative Agent will give notice to Borrowers’ Agent no later than 9:00 a.m. (London time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested date of such Borrowing that the Borrowing in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by Administrative Agent to the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders. If Administrative Agent shall have so notified Borrowers’ Agent that any such Borrowing in a requested Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, the applicable Borrower may, by notice to Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) two (2) Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, withdraw the Notice of Borrowing relating to such requested Borrowing. If a Borrower does so withdraw such Notice of Borrowing, the Borrowing requested therein shall not occur and Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each Multicurrency Revolving Lender. If such Borrower does not so withdraw such Notice of Borrowing, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each Multicurrency Revolving Lender and such Notice of Borrowing shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing that requests a Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the originally requested Borrowing in the Notice of Borrowing; and in such notice by Administrative Agent to each Lender will state such aggregate amount of such Borrowing in Dollars and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.
(d) In the case of a proposed continuation of Revolving Loans denominated in an Agreed Alternative Currency for an additional Interest Period pursuant to Section 2.7, the
Multicurrency Revolving Lenders shall be under no obligation to continue such Loans if Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) four (4) Business Days prior to the day of such continuation that such Lender cannot continue to provide Loans in the Agreed Alternative Currency, in which event Administrative Agent will give notice to Borrowers’ Agent not later than 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the requested date of such continuation that the continuation of such Loans in the Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by Administrative Agent to the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders. If Administrative Agent shall have so notified Borrowers’ Agent that any such continuation of Loans is not then available, any Notice of Continuation/Conversion with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn and such Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Loans. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrowers’ Agent and the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders of any such redenomination and in such notice by Administrative Agent to each Lender will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Alternative Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Lender’s Revolver Pro Rata Share thereof.
2.10 Additional Facility.
(a) Any Borrower (other than OI Europe or O-I Canada) shall have the right at any time (so long as (x) no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default then exists; provided, that, in the case of Additional Facilities (as defined below) incurred to consummate an Acquisition permitted pursuant to Section 8.3, no Event of Default under Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(i) then exists and (y) Company shall have delivered to Administrative Agent a Compliance Certificate for the period of four (4) full Fiscal Quarters immediately preceding the incurrence described below (prepared in good faith and in a manner and using such methodology which is consistent with the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.1) giving pro forma effect to such incurrence and the application of the proceeds thereof (excluding the cash proceeds of such incurrence and, with respect to any Additional Revolving Commitment, assuming a borrowing of the maximum amount of Loans available thereunder) and evidencing compliance with the covenant set forth in Article IX); provided, that, in the case of Additional Facilities (as defined below) incurred to consummate an Acquisition permitted pursuant to Section 8.3, such Compliance Certificate may, at Company’s election, be delivered at the time of entry into definitive documentation for an Acquisition permitted pursuant to Section 8.3 evidencing compliance with the covenant set forth in Article IX (on a Pro Forma Basis giving pro forma effect to such incurrence and the application of the proceeds thereof (excluding the cash proceeds of such incurrence and, with respect to any Additional Revolving Commitment, assuming a borrowing of the maximum amount of Loans available thereunder)) as of the last day of the Fiscal Quarter immediately preceding the entry into such definitive documentation, and from time to time after the Closing Date to incur from one or more existing Lenders and/or other Persons that are Eligible Assignees and which, in each case, agree to make such commitments and loans to such Borrower, in Dollars or in an Alternative Currency, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed an amount equal to the sum of (A)(i) $1,250,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof in an Alternative Currency at the time of funding) minus (ii) the total amount of Accordion-Reducing Permitted Secured Debt incurred through such date plus (B) the amount of any optional prepayment of any Loan, including any Loan under any Additional Facility (other than, in each case, incurred pursuant to clause (C) below) (accompanied, to the extent such prepayments are of Loans under any Revolving Facility and/or any Additional Revolving Commitments, by a permanent commitment reduction in the like amount under such Revolving Facility and/or Additional Revolving Commitments) so long as, in the case of any such optional
prepayment, such prepayment was not funded with the proceeds of a contemporaneous refinancing with new long-term Indebtedness plus (C) an amount such that, at the time of the incurrence of the applicable Additional Facility (after giving effect to the full utilization of the applicable Additional Facility and the application of the proceeds thereof, excluding the cash proceeds of such incurrence) the Secured Leverage Ratio (calculated as though the total amount of Accordion-Reducing Permitted Secured Debt incurred through such date was outstanding on such date) does not exceed 2.00:1.00 (such amount, the “Incremental Cap”) (it being acknowledged that each Additional Facility under this Section shall be incurred under clause (C) if clause (C) is available at the time of such incurrence up to the maximum amount available, and any additional amounts incurred at any time that clause (C) is unavailable shall be incurred under clauses (A) and/or (B), and any simultaneous incurrence under clauses (A) and/or (B) shall not be given pro forma effect for purposes of determining the Secured Leverage Ratio with respect to any incurrence under clause (C)), which may be incurred as (i) commitments to increase any tranche of Revolving Commitments (“Additional Revolving Commitments”), (ii) one or more tranches of additional term loans substantially similar to the Term Loans of a particular Term Facility (the “Additional Term Loans”) that are pari passu in all respects to the Term Loans made under such Term Facility that would provide that the Additional Term Loans would have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity of not less than the Term Loans with the then longest Weighted Average Life to Maturity and a final maturity date no earlier than the latest Term Loan Maturity Date and/or (iii) increases to one or more existing Term Facilities (collectively, “Additional Facilities”); provided, that no Additional Term Loans, Additional Revolving Commitments or Additional Facilities shall be guaranteed by entities other than the Loan Parties (other than OI Europe) and the terms and conditions of any Additional Term Loans shall be substantially similar to those applicable to the existing Term Facilities (other than as to pricing, fees and other economic terms, and provided, that the applicable Borrower shall have the right to unilaterally provide the existing Term Loan Lenders with additional rights and benefits (such rights and benefits “Additional Incremental Rights”) and the “substantially similar” requirement of this proviso and compliance therewith shall be determined after giving effect to such additional rights and benefits); provided further, that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Additional Facilities may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Additional Facilities.
(b) In the event that a Borrower desires to create an Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments, such Borrower will enter into an amendment with the lenders (who shall by execution thereof become Lenders hereunder if not theretofore Lenders) to provide for such Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments, which amendment shall set forth any terms and conditions of the Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments not covered by this Agreement as agreed by the applicable Borrower and such Lenders, and shall provide for the issuance of promissory notes to evidence the Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments if requested by the Lenders making advances under the Additional Facility or providing Additional Revolving Commitments (which notes shall constitute Notes for purposes of this Agreement), with such amendment to be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent to the extent the terms thereof are inconsistent with the terms of this Section 2.10(b) and of the other provisions of this Agreement. In addition, any Lenders providing commitments or Term Loans under any Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitment shall become bound by the Re-Allocation Agreement in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders and Issuing Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into any amendment or supplement to the Re-Allocation Agreement as the Administrative Agent deems necessary or appropriate in order to give effect to the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no consent of any Lender (other than any Lender making loans or whose commitment is increased under the Additional Facility or Additional
Revolving Commitments) is required to permit the Loans or commitments contemplated by this Section 2.10(b) or the aforesaid amendment to effectuate the Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments. No Lender shall have any obligation, whether express or implied, to commit to provide any Additional Facility or Additional Revolving Commitments.
(c) On the effective date of any Additional Revolving Commitments, the participations held by the Revolving Lenders in the LC Obligations, with respect to the applicable tranche of Revolving Commitments immediately prior to such increase will be reallocated so as to be held by the Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment percentages after giving effect to such Additional Revolving Commitments. If, on the date of an Additional Revolving Commitment, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding under the applicable tranche of the Revolving Commitments, the applicable Borrowers shall prepay such Revolving Loans in accordance with this Agreement on the date of effectiveness of such Additional Revolving Commitment (but the applicable Borrowers may finance such prepayment with a concurrent borrowing of Revolving Loans under the applicable tranche of the Revolving Commitments from the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Revolver Pro Rata Share after giving effect to such Additional Revolving Commitment).
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10(a), (b) or (c) or any other provision of any Loan Document:
(i) If the proceeds of any Additional Facility are intended to be applied to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, (A) the requirements of clause (x) of Section 2.10(a) above shall, at the election of Company, be determined as of the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into, (B) the representations and warranties required to be made in connection with the initial Loans made under such Additional Facility pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(i) shall, at the election of Company, be limited to the Specified Representations and (C) to the extent that such Additional Facilities are to be incurred in reliance on clause (C) of Section 2.10(a) above, the Secured Leverage Ratio test specified therein shall, at the election of Company, be determined as of the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into.
(ii) If Company has made an election under clause (i)(C) of this Section 2.10(d) for any Limited Condition Acquisition permitted pursuant to Section 8.3, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, mergers, dispositions, Investments, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Subordinated Debt, or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant date of determination and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated except to the extent such calculation on a Pro Forma Basis would result in a lower ratio than if calculated without giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions in connection therewith.

Each such notice shall specify (A) the proposed issuance date and expiration date, (B) the name(s) of each obligor with respect to such Letter of Credit, (C) the applicable Borrower as the account party, (D) the name and address of the beneficiary (which Person shall be acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender), (E) the Stated Amount in Dollars or, if applicable, the Alternative Currency, of such proposed Letter of Credit, (F) whether such Letter of Credit is to be a Standby Letter of Credit or Commercial Letter of Credit and (G) the purpose of such Letter of Credit, which must be a purpose permitted by Section 2.11(a) and such other information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request. In addition, each Letter of Credit request shall contain a general description of the terms and conditions to be included in such proposed Letter of Credit (all of which terms and conditions shall be acceptable to the respective Issuing Lender). Unless otherwise specified, all Letters of Credit will be governed by the Uniform Customs and Practices for Documentary Credit Operations as in effect on the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Notice of Issuance shall include any other documents as the respective Issuing Lender customarily requires in connection therewith. From time to time while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and

Each such request for amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be made by facsimile, confirmed promptly in an original writing (each a “Letter of Credit Amendment Request”) and shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender: (i) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (ii) the proposed date of amendment of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (iv) such other matters as the Issuing Lender may require. The Issuing Lender shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if: (A) the Issuing Lender would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms of this Agreement, or (B) the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit. In the case of Standby Letters of Credit, each Issuing Lender shall, promptly after the issuance of or amendment or modification to such a Letter of Credit, give Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower written notice of the issuance, amendment or modification of such Letter of Credit, accompanied by a copy of such issuance, amendment or modification. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Agent shall give each Multicurrency Revolving Lender or Dollar Revolving Lender, as applicable, written notice of such issuance, amendment or modification, and if so requested by any such Lender, Administrative Agent shall provide such Lender with copies of such issuance, amendment or modification. As to any Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Lender other than DB, the respective Issuing Lender shall furnish to Administrative Agent, on the first Business Day of each week, by facsimile a report detailing the aggregate daily total outstanding Commercial Letters of Credit for such Issuing Lender during the prior week.
(d) Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Payments.
(i) The applicable Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse the respective Issuing Lender, by making payment to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds in Dollars at the Payment Office, for the Dollar Equivalent of any payment or disbursement made by such Issuing Lender under and in accordance with any Letter of Credit (each such amount so paid or disbursed until reimbursed, an “Unpaid Drawing”), no later than one Business Day after the date on which such Borrower receives notice of such payment or disbursement (if such Unpaid Drawing was in an Alternative Currency, then in the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Unpaid Drawing), with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such Issuing Lender, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but excluding the date such Issuing Lender is reimbursed therefor by such Borrower at a rate per annum which shall be the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin for Revolving Loans with respect to Multicurrency Letters of Credit in Dollars, provided, however, that, anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) unless such Borrower shall have notified Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following receipt of such notice that the applicable Issuing Lender will be reimbursed for the amount of such Unpaid Drawing with funds other than the proceeds of Revolving Loans such Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing to Administrative Agent requesting each Multicurrency Revolving Lender or Dollar Revolving Lender, as applicable, to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans or Dollar Revolving Loans, as applicable, which are Base Rate Loans, on the date on which such Unpaid Drawing is honored in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Unpaid Drawing and Administrative Agent shall, if such Notice of Borrowing is deemed given, promptly notify the
applicable Lenders thereof and (ii) unless any of the events described in Section 10.1(i) shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of Section 2.11(e) shall apply), each such Multicurrency Revolving Lender or Dollar Revolving Lender, as applicable, shall, on the date such drawing is honored, make Multicurrency Revolving Loans or Dollar Revolving Loans, as applicable, which are Base Rate Loans in the amount of its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Dollar Equivalent of such Unpaid Drawing, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for the amount of such Unpaid Drawing; and provided, further, that, if for any reason, proceeds of Multicurrency Revolving Loans or Dollar Revolving Loans are not received by the applicable Issuing Lender on such date in an amount equal to the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of such drawing, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender, on the Business Day immediately following the date such drawing is honored, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of such drawing over the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Multicurrency Revolving Loans or Dollar Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received, plus accrued interest on such amount at the rate set forth in Section 3.1(a) or (g), as applicable; provided, however, to the extent such amounts are not reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day following such payment or disbursement, interest shall thereafter accrue on the amounts so paid or disbursed by such Issuing Lender (and until reimbursed by the applicable Borrower) at a rate per annum which shall be the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin (plus an additional 2% per annum), such interest also to be payable on demand. The respective Issuing Lender shall give the applicable Borrower prompt notice of each Drawing under any Letter of Credit, provided that the failure to give any such notice shall in no way affect, impair or diminish any Loan Party’s obligations hereunder.
(ii) The obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.11(d) to reimburse the respective Issuing Lender with respect to drawings on Letters of Credit (each, a “Drawing”) (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which such Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing Lender, Agent or any Lender (including in its capacity as issuer of the Letter of Credit or as LC Participant), or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Drawing, the respective Issuing Lender’s only obligation to Borrowers being to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not create for such Issuing Lender any resulting liability to any Borrower or any other Loan Party.
(e) Letter of Credit Participations. Immediately upon the issuance by any Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to (i) each Multicurrency Revolving Lender with respect to each Multicurrency Letter of Credit and (ii) each Dollar Revolving Lender with respect to each Dollar Letter of Credit, in each case, other than such Issuing Lender (each such Lender, in its capacity under this Section 2.11(e), an “LC Participant”), and each such LC Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Revolving Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share (with respect to Multicurrency Letters of Credit) and such Dollar Revolver Lender’s Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share (with respect to Dollar Letters of Credit), as the case may be, in such Letter of Credit, each substitute Letter of Credit, each Drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement with respect thereto (although Letter of
Credit fees shall be payable directly to Administrative Agent for the account of the LC Participant as provided in Section 2.11(g) and the LC Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of the issuing fees), and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. Upon any change in the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders or the Dollar Revolving Commitments of the Dollar Revolving Lenders, it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings relating to Letters of Credit, there shall be an automatic adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.11(e) to reflect the new Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of the assignor and assignee Lender or of all Lenders with Multicurrency Revolving Commitments or Dollar Revolving Commitments, as the case may be. In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall have no obligation relative to the LC Participants other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not create for such Issuing Lender any resulting liability to any Loan Party or any Lender.
(f) Draws Upon Letter of Credit; Reimbursement Obligations. In the event that any Issuing Lender makes any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it and the applicable Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(d), such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each LC Participant of such failure, and each such LC Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender, the amount of such LC Participant’s applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of such payment in Dollars or, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, in such Alternative Currency and in same day funds; provided, however, that no LC Participant shall be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction on the part of such Issuing Lender. If Administrative Agent so notifies any LC Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) or, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, 11:00 a.m. (London time) on any Business Day, such LC Participant shall make available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Issuing Lender such LC Participant’s applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such LC Participant shall not have so made its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of the amount of such payment available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Issuing Lender, such LC Participant agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender at the Federal Funds Rate. The failure of any LC Participant to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Issuing Lender its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it shall not relieve any other LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share
or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of any payment under any such Letter of Credit on the day required, as specified above, but no LC Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other LC Participant to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender such other LC Participant’s applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of any such payment.
(i) Whenever any Issuing Lender receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuing Lender any payments from the LC Participants pursuant to this Section 2.11(f), such Issuing Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall pay to each LC Participant which has paid its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, thereof, in Dollars or, if in an Alternative Currency, in such Alternative Currency and in same day funds, an amount equal to such LC Participant’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.
(ii) The obligations of the LC Participants to make payments to each Issuing Lender with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it shall be irrevocable and not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:
(A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;
(B) The existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), Administrative Agent, any LC Participant, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);
(C) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect to any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;
(D) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or
(E) the occurrence of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default.
(g) Fees for Letters of Credit.
(i) Issuing Lender Fees. The applicable Borrower agrees to pay the following amount to the respective Issuing Lender with respect to the Letters of Credit issued by it for the account of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries:
(A) with respect to payments made under any Letter of Credit, interest, payable on demand, on the amount paid by such Issuing Lender in respect of each such payment from the date of the payments through the date such amount is reimbursed by such Borrower (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c)) at a rate determined in accordance with the terms of Section 2.11(d)(i);
(B) with respect to the issuance or amendment of each Letter of Credit and each payment made thereunder, documentary and processing charges in accordance with Issuing Lender’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be; and
(C) an issuing fee equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum of the Stated Amount outstanding and undrawn LC Obligations payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter, on demand together with customary issuance and payment charges.
(ii) Participating Lender Fees. Each Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent in the currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated for distribution to each LC Participant (A) in respect of all Multicurrency Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower outstanding such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of a commission equal to the then Applicable Eurocurrency Margin for Multicurrency Revolving Loans with respect to the Effective Amount under such outstanding Letters of Credit (the “Multicurrency LC Commission”) payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, on the Revolver Termination Date for the Multicurrency Revolving Facility and thereafter, on demand and (B) in respect of all Dollar Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower outstanding such Lender’s Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share of a commission equal to the then Applicable Eurocurrency Margin for Dollar Revolving Loans with respect to the amount outstanding under such Letters of Credit (the “Dollar LC Commission”) payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter, on demand. Each of the Multicurrency LC Commission and the Dollar LC Commission shall be computed on a daily basis from the first day of issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days.
Promptly upon receipt by the respective Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent of any amount described in clause (i)(A) or (ii) of this Section 2.11(g), such Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender that has reimbursed such Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 2.11(d) its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share of such amount. Amounts payable under clause (i)(B) and (C) of this Section 2.11(g) shall be paid directly to such Issuing Lender.
(h) Indemnification. In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and hold each Issuing Lender harmless, on an after-Tax basis, from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) which any Issuing Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of the Letters of Credit, other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to such Issuing Lender or (ii) the failure of the applicable Issuing Lender to honor a Drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Government Acts”), provided that OI Europe shall only be responsible to so indemnify with respect to Letters of Credit issued for its own account. As between any Borrower and each Issuing Lender, such Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, no Issuing Lender shall be responsible: (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any Drawing under such Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning
or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a Drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any Drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of the applicable Issuing Lender’s rights or powers hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.11(h) shall not apply to Taxes, except any Taxes that represent claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses arising from any non-Tax claim.
In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, and in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not put any Issuing Lender under any resulting liability to any Borrower or any other Loan Party.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Borrower shall have any obligation to indemnify any Issuing Lender in respect of any liability incurred by such Issuing Lender to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction. The right of indemnification in the first paragraph of this Section 2.11(h) shall not prejudice any rights that any Borrower may otherwise have against each Issuing Lender with respect to a Letter of Credit issued hereunder.
(i) Increased Costs. If at any time after the Closing Date any Change in Law shall (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy, or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by any Issuing Lender or participated in by any Lender, (ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes and (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or (iii) impose on any Issuing Lender or any Lender any other conditions relating, directly or indirectly, to this Agreement or any Letter of Credit; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Issuing Lender or any Lender or any such other Recipient of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Issuing Lender, or Lender or other Recipient hereunder or reduce the rate of return on its capital with respect to Letters of Credit, then, upon demand to the applicable Borrower by the respective Issuing Lender, Lender or other Recipient (a copy of which demand shall be sent by such Issuing Lender, Lender or other Recipient to Administrative Agent), the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Issuing Lender, Lender or other Recipient such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Issuing Lender, Lender or other Recipient for such increased cost or reduction in the amount receivable or reduction on the rate of return on its capital. Each Recipient, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.11(i), will give prompt written notice thereof to the applicable Borrower, which notice shall include a certificate submitted to the applicable Borrower by the respective Recipient (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such Recipient to Administrative Agent), setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such additional amount or
amounts necessary to compensate such Recipient, although failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish any Loan Party’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11(i). The certificate required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 2.11(i) shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on the Loan Parties.
(j) Existing Letters of Credit. The letters of credit set forth under the caption “Letters of Credit Outstanding on the Closing Date” on Schedule 2.11(j) annexed hereto and made a part hereof which were issued pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement and which remain outstanding as of the Closing Date are referred to as the “Existing Letters of Credit”. Each Borrower, each Issuing Lender and each of the Lenders hereby agree with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit that such Existing Letters of Credit, for all purposes under this Agreement shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit (as indicated on Schedule 2.11(j)), governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees to participate in each Existing Letter of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender in an amount equal to its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, of the Stated Amount of such Existing Letter of Credit.
(k) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Commitments. If the expiration date with respect to Letters of Credit in respect of a particular Revolving Facility occurs prior to the expiry date of any Letter of Credit issued under such Revolving Facility, then, at the Company’s option, (i) if one or more classes of Extended Revolving Commitments in respect of which the expiration date applicable to Letters of Credit issued thereunder shall not have so occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall, to the extent such Letters of Credit could have been issued under such other class or classes of Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of this Agreement at such time, automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the applicable Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Loans and fund participations in respect thereof pursuant to Sections 2.11(d) and (f)) under (and ratably participated in by the applicable Lenders pursuant to) the Commitments in respect of such non-terminating class or classes of Extended Revolving Commitments up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and subject to the other applicable requirements of this Section 2.11 and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i), the Company shall cash collateralize any such Letter of Credit on terms reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lenders. The sublimit for Letters of Credit under a Revolver Extension Series shall be agreed solely with each Issuing Lender and set forth in the applicable Extension Amendment.
2.12 Pro Rata Borrowings. Borrowings of Loans under this Agreement shall be loaned by the applicable Lenders pro rata on the basis of their applicable Commitments under the applicable Facility. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its Commitments hereunder.
2.13 Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Reallocation of Defaulting Lender Commitment, Etc. If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding Letter of Credit Exposure and any outstanding obligations under Sections 2.1(d) and 2.1(e) regarding Overdraft Amounts of such Defaulting Lender:
(i) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Letter of Credit Exposure and obligations under Sections 2.1(d) and 2.1(e) regarding Overdraft Amounts
of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the limitation in the proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments under the applicable Revolving Facility; provided that (a) after giving effect to such reallocation, (x) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s total of the Revolving Credit Exposure may not in any event exceed the Revolving Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation, (y) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s total of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure may not in any event exceed the Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation and (z) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s total of the Dollar Revolving Credit Exposure may not in any event exceed the Dollar Revolving Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation and (b) subject to Section 12.20, neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Overdraft Providers or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender; and
(ii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure and obligations under Sections 2.1(d) and 2.1(e) regarding Overdraft Amounts cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the applicable Borrower will, not later than two Business Days after demand by Administrative Agent (at the direction of any Issuing Lender and/or any Overdraft Provider, as the case may be), (a) cash collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lenders and the Overdraft Providers in respect of such Letter of Credit Exposure and the obligations under Sections 2.1(d) and 2.1(e) regarding Overdraft Amounts of such Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such Letter of Credit Exposure and obligations under Sections 2.1(d) and 2.1(e) regarding Overdraft Amounts or (b) in the case of such obligations under Sections 2.1(d) and 2.1(e) regarding Overdraft Amounts, prepay in full the unreallocated portion of the obligations under Sections 2.1(d) and 2.1(e) regarding Overdraft Amounts of such Defaulting Lender.
(b) Fees.
(i) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any Commitment Fee accruing during such period pursuant to Section 3.2(b) and the Borrowers shall no longer be required to pay the portion of the Commitment Fee accruing during such period that would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender.
(ii) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any Letter of Credit fees accruing during such period (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees to the extent provided herein); provided that (x) to the extent that all or a portion of the Letter of Credit Exposure of a Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13(a)(i), such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments, and (y) to the extent any portion of such Letter of Credit Exposure cannot be so reallocated, such Letter of Credit fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuing Lenders based on their pro rata share of the undrawn face amount of Letters of Credit outstanding; provided that if at any time and so long as the Borrowers shall have cash collateralized Letter of Credit Exposure of a Defaulting Lender as required pursuant to Section 2.13(a)(ii), then the Borrower shall no longer be required to
pay Letter of Credit fees in respect of such cash collateralized amounts in respect of the Letter of Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender.
(c) Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitment. So long as no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers may terminate the unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than three Business Days’ prior notice to Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof); provided that (i) prior to any such termination, the Borrower shall have repaid in full all outstanding Revolving Loans (without any reduction of the Revolving Commitments) and all accrued but unpaid interest and fees hereunder owing to all Lenders and (ii) such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Overdraft Providers or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender; provided further that in the case of the termination of a Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment, if such Defaulting Lender is a Issuing Lender with one or more outstanding Letters of Credit, then the Borrowers shall be required to fully cash collateralize such Letters of Credit.
(d) Reallocation of Payments. If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, except in connection with a termination of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.13(c) above, any amount paid by the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be retained by Administrative Agent in a segregated non-interest-bearing account until (subject to Section 2.13(e)) the earlier of (x) termination of the applicable Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrowers under such Revolving Facility and (y) the Revolver Termination Date applicable to such Defaulting Lender and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrowers under such Revolving Facility to all Lenders owing on such Revolver Termination Date and will be applied by Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders or the Overdraft Providers (pro rata as to the respective amounts owing to each of them) under this Agreement, third as the Borrowers’ Agent may request (so long as no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default then exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent, and fourth after the earlier of (x) termination of the applicable Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrowers under such Revolving Facility and (y) the Revolver Termination Date applicable to such Defaulting Lender and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrowers under such Revolving Facility to all Lenders owing on such Revolver Termination Date, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. For the sake of clarity, it is understood and agreed that any payment by the Borrowers on account of the obligations of a Defaulting Lender shall be and be deemed to be a payment by the Borrowers to such Defaulting Lender (and no interest will thereafter accrue on such amount) whether or not such payment is paid to such Defaulting Lender or deposited in the above- referenced non-interest bearing account.
(e) Cure. If Borrowers’ Agent, Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Overdraft Providers agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.13(d)), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase such portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of the other Lenders
(together with any break funding incurred by such other Lenders) and/or make such other adjustments as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the total Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, Dollar Revolving Commitments, Revolving Commitments, Multicurrency Revolving Loans, Dollar Revolving Loans, Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit participation obligations and Overdraft Amount participation obligations of the Lenders to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments under the applicable Revolving Facility, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(f) New Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no unreallocated portion after giving effect thereto.
2.14 Borrowers’ Agent. O-I General is hereby appointed Borrowers’ agent and in the case of ACI NZ, as its attorney, hereunder by each Borrower (in such capacity “Borrowers’ Agent”). Each Borrower hereby authorizes, directs and empowers O-I General to act for and in the name of such Borrower and as its agent hereunder and under the other instruments and agreements referred to herein (including, without limitation, with respect to any service of process to be effected with respect to such Borrower). O-I General hereby accepts each such appointment. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes O-I General to take such action on such Borrower’s behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder, under the other Loan Documents, and under the other agreements and instruments referred to herein or therein as may be contemplated being taken or exercised by such Borrower by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be incidental thereto, including, without limitation, to borrow hereunder and deliver Notices of Borrowing, Notices of Conversion or Continuation and Compliance Certificates hereunder, to convert, continue, repay or prepay Loans made hereunder, to reduce the Commitments, to pay interest, fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Loans, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the other agreements and instruments referred to herein or therein, to receive from or deliver to any Agent any notices, statements, reports, certificates or other documents or instruments contemplated herein, in the other Loan Documents or in any other agreement or instrument referred to herein and to receive from or transmit to any Agent any Loan proceeds or payments and to enter into any amendments or waivers of this Agreement (except to the extent that the execution of any such amendment or waiver by any Borrower is reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, acting on the advice of local counsel, where applicable). Each Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender shall be entitled to rely on the appointment and authorization of O-I General with respect to all matters related to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other agreements or instruments referred to herein or therein whether or not any particular provision hereof or thereof specifies that such matters may or shall be undertaken by Borrowers’ Agent. In reliance hereon, each Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender may deal with O-I General alone with the same effect as if such Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender had dealt with each Borrower separately and individually.
2.15 Extension of Term Loans; Extension of Revolving Loans.
(a) Extension of Term Loans. The Borrowers’ Agent may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans of a given Term Facility (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche”) be amended to extend the scheduled Term Loan Maturity Date with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Term Loans (any such Term Loans
which have been so amended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.15. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the applicable Borrower shall provide a notice to Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche and (y) (except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, optional prepayments and redemptions, mandatory repayments, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments, which shall be determined by the applicable Borrower and the Extending Term Lenders and set forth in the relevant Term Loan Extension Request), be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable to the Extending Term Lenders than those applicable to the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Term Loan Extension Request (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the latest Term Loan Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans)) (as reasonably determined by the applicable Borrower), including: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided, however, that at no time shall there be Term Facilities hereunder (including Additional Term Loans, Refinancing Term Loans, Replacement Term Loans and Extended Term Loans) which have more than five different Term Loan Maturity Dates; (ii) pricing, optional prepayment and redemptions and mandatory repayments with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than pricing, optional prepayments and redemptions and mandatory repayments for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the latest Term Loan Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); and (iv) Extended Term Loans may have call protection as may be agreed by the applicable Borrower and the Lenders thereof; provided that no Extended Term Loans incurred by the applicable Borrower with respect to Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans and Tranche C Term Loans may be optionally or mandatorily prepaid prior to the date on which all such Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche C Term Loans, and all other additional Term Loans, Refinancing Term Loans, Replacement Term Loans, Extended Term Loans incurred by the applicable Borrower, in each case with an earlier final stated maturity (including Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which they were amended) are repaid in full, unless such optional or mandatory prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional or mandatory prepayment of such other Term Facility; provided, further, that (A) no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time a Term Loan Extension Request is delivered to Lenders, (B) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche, (C) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter (other than by virtue of amortization or prepayment of such Indebtedness prior to the time of incurrence of such Extended Term Loans) than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche, (D) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing, and (E) any Extended Term Loans incurred with respect to Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche C Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis)
in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder with respect to any Tranche A Term Loans, Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche C Term Loans, and any other Additional Term Loans, Refinancing Term Loans, Replacement Term Loans and Extended Term Loans, incurred by the applicable Borrower, in each case as specified in the respective Term Loan Extension Request. Any Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Term Loan Extension Series”) of Extended Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Term Loans amended from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Term Loan Extension Series with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche (in which case scheduled amortization with respect thereto shall be proportionally increased). Each Term Loan Extension Series of Extended Term Loans incurred under this Section 2.15 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $100,000,000 (or, if less, the entire principal amount of the Indebtedness being extended pursuant to this Section 2.15(a)).
(b) Extension of Revolving Commitments. The Borrowers’ Agent may, at any time and from time to time, request that all or a portion of any Revolving Facility (each, an “Existing Revolver Tranche”) be amended to extend the Revolver Termination Date with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of the Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility (any such Revolving Commitments under a Revolving Facility which have been so amended, “Extended Revolving Commitments”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.11(k). In order to establish any Extended Revolving Commitments, Company shall provide a notice to Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Revolver Tranche) (each, a “Revolver Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Commitments to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche and (y) except as to interest rates, fees, optional redemption or prepayment terms, final maturity, and after the final maturity date, any other covenants and provisions (which shall be determined by Company and the Extending Revolving Lenders and set forth in the relevant Revolver Extension Request), the Extended Revolving Commitment extended pursuant to a Revolver Extension Request, and the related outstandings, shall be a “Revolving Facility” (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with such other terms substantially identical to, or taken as a whole, no more favorable to the Extending Revolving Lenders, as those applicable to the Existing Revolver Tranche subject to such Revolver Extension Request (and related outstandings) (as reasonably determined by Company), including: (i) pricing, optional prepayment or redemption terms, with respect to extensions of credit under the Extended Revolving Commitments (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the pricing, optional redemption or prepayment terms, for extensions of credit under any Revolving Facility of such Existing Revolver Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants (as determined by Company and Extending Revolving Lenders) and terms that apply solely to any period after the latest Revolver Termination Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Revolving Commitments); and (iii) (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the Revolver Termination Date of such Revolving Facility (and related outstandings) or the Extended Revolving Commitments of a given Extension Series (and related outstandings), in each case having an earlier Revolver Termination Date and (C) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments under such Revolving Facility or the Extended Revolving Commitments of a given Extension Series, in each
case having an earlier Revolver Termination Date (subject to clause (3) below)) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments of a given Extension Series after the date of obtaining such Extended Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with the Existing Revolver Tranche, (2) subject to the provisions of Section 2.11 to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit which mature or expire after a maturity date when there exist Extended Revolving Commitments of a given Extension Series, all Letters of Credit issued under the Existing Revolver Tranche shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche and Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Commitments under the applicable Revolving Facilities (and except as provided in Section 2.1, without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier Revolver Termination Date with respect to Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued), (3) the permanent repayment of Loans under, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments of a given Extension Series after the date of obtaining such Extended Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with the Existing Revolver Tranche, except that Company shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of the Existing Revolver Tranche on a greater than a pro rata basis as compared to any other such Revolving Facility with a later Revolver Termination Date and (4) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to the Existing Revolver Tranche (and related outstandings); provided, further, that (A) no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time a Revolver Extension Request is delivered to Lenders, (B) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Revolving Commitments of a given Revolver Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the Revolver Termination Date of the applicable Existing Revolver Tranche, (C) at no time shall there be Commitments under revolving credit facilities hereunder (including the Revolving Commitments and Extended Revolving Commitments of each Extension Series) which have more than five different Revolver Termination Dates and (D) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing. Any Extended Revolving Commitments amended pursuant to any Revolver Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Revolver Extension Series”) of Extended Revolving Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Revolving Commitments amended from an Existing Revolver Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Revolver Extension Series with respect to such Existing Revolver Tranche. Each Revolver Extension Series of Extended Revolving Commitments incurred under this Section 2.15 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $100,000,000 (or, if less, the entire principal amount of the Revolving Commitments being extended pursuant to this Section 2.15(b)).
(c) Extension Request. The Borrowers’ Agent shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least five Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, are requested to respond (or such shorter period as agreed by Administrative Agent), and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.15. Subject to Section 3.7(b), no Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche amended into Extended Term Loans or any of its Revolving Commitments amended into Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender holding a Loan under an Existing Term Loan Tranche (each, an “Extending Term Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under an Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Term Loans and any Revolving Lender (each, an “Extending Revolving Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Commitments under an Existing Revolver Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended
Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, in respect of which applicable Term Loan Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be amended to Extended Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, included in each such Extension Election.
(d) Extension Amendment. Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrowers, Administrative Agent and each Extending Term Lender or Extending Revolving Lender, as applicable, providing an Extended Term Loan or Extended Revolving Commitment, as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.15(a) or 2.15(b) above, respectively (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with such Extension Amendment) on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 and, to the extent reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, receipt by Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date other than changes to such legal opinion resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), as applicable, incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in Section 4.4(b) with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Term Loans of the applicable Term Facility thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Term Loans required pursuant to Section 4.4(b)), (iii) modify the prepayments set forth in Section 4.3 to reflect the existence of the Extended Term Loans and the application of prepayments with respect thereto and (iv) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.15 (including, without limitation, such amendments as may be considered necessary or appropriate to integrate any Extended Term Loan as a new Term Facility or any Extended Revolving Commitments as a new Revolving Facility), and the Requisite Lenders hereby expressly authorize Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment. In addition, any Extended Term Lender or Extended Revolving Lender
shall become bound by the Re-Allocation Agreement in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders and Issuing Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into any amendment or supplement to the Re-Allocation Agreement as the Administrative Agent deemed as appropriate, in order to give effect to the foregoing.
(e) No Prepayment. No conversion or extension of Loans or Commitments pursuant to any Extension Amendment in accordance with this Section 2.15 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory prepayment or repayment for purposes of this Agreement. This Section 2.15 shall supersede any provisions in Section 4.5 or 12.1 to the contrary.
ARTICLE III
INTEREST AND FEES
3.1 Interest.
(a) Base Rate Loans. Each applicable Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Loan from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to such Borrower (or, if such Base Rate Loan was converted from a Eurocurrency Loan, the date of such conversion) until the earlier of (i) the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Base Rate Loan or (ii) the conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a Eurocurrency Loan pursuant to Section 2.7 at a rate per annum equal to the relevant Base Rate plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin.
(b) Eurocurrency Loans. Each applicable Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of such Borrower’s Eurocurrency Loans from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to such Borrower (or, if such Eurocurrency Loan was converted from a Base Rate Loan, the date of such conversion) until the earlier of (i) the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurocurrency Loan or (ii) the conversion of such Eurocurrency Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.7 at a rate per annum equal to the relevant Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin.
(c) [Reserved.]
(d) [Reserved.]
(e) Payment of Interest. Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest accruing pursuant to Section 3.1(g) shall be payable from time to time on demand. Interest shall also be payable on all then outstanding Revolving Loans on the applicable Revolver Termination Date and on all Loans on the date of repayment (including prepayment) thereof (except that voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans made pursuant to Section 4.3 on any day other than a Quarterly Payment Date or the applicable Revolver Termination Date need not be made with accrued interest from the most recent Quarterly Payment Date, provided such accrued interest is paid on the next Quarterly Payment Date) and on the date of maturity (by acceleration or otherwise) of such Loans. During the existence of any Event of Default, interest on any Loan shall be payable on demand.
(f) Notification of Rate. Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans for any Interest Period, shall promptly notify the applicable Borrowers and the applicable Lenders thereof. Such determination shall, absent manifest error and subject to Section 3.6, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto.
(g) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified herein, effective immediately upon any failure to make principal payments on any Loans, whether by acceleration or otherwise, the principal balance of each Loan then due and outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payment on each Loan not paid when due or other amounts then due and payable shall bear interest payable on demand, after as well as before judgment at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.
(h) Maximum Interest. If any interest payment or other charge or fee payable hereunder exceeds the maximum amount then permitted by applicable law, the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to pay the maximum amount then permitted by applicable law and the applicable Borrower shall continue to pay the maximum amount from time to time permitted by applicable law until all such interest payments and other charges and fees otherwise due hereunder (in the absence of such restraint imposed by applicable law) have been paid in full. To the extent necessary to comply with applicable usury law, provisions of any Collateral Documents related to maximum rates of interest are incorporated herein by reference and shall control and supersede any provision hereof or of any other Loan Document to the contrary. In no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as defined in Section 347 (the “Criminal Code Section”) of the Criminal Code (Canada)), payable to any Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document exceed the effective annual rate of interest lawfully permitted under the Criminal Code Section. Further, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of such “interest” is determined to be contrary to the provisions of the Criminal Code Section, such payment, collection, or demand shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower and such “interest” shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in the receipt by the applicable Lender of interest at a rate not in contravention of the Criminal Code Section.
(i) Minimum Interest. The rates of interest provided for in this Agreement, including, without limitation, in this Section 3.1, are minimum interest rates. When entering into this Agreement, the parties have assumed that the interest payable at the rates set out in this Section 3.1 or in other sections of this Agreement is not and will not become subject to Swiss Withholding Tax. Notwithstanding that the parties do not anticipate that any payment of interest will be subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, they agree that, in the event that Swiss Withholding Tax should be imposed on interest payments by an obligor and if Section 4.7(a) is unenforceable for any reason, the payment of interest due by such obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after making any deduction of the Non-refundable Portion (as defined below) of Swiss Withholding Tax) results in a payment to each Lender entitled to such payment of an amount equal to the payment which would have been due had no deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax been required. For this purpose, the Swiss Withholding Tax shall be calculated on the full grossed-up interest amount. For the purposes of this Section 3.1(i), “Non-refundable Portion” of Swiss Withholding Tax shall mean Swiss Withholding Tax at the standard rate (being, as at the date hereof, 35 per cent.) unless a tax ruling issued by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration confirms that, in relation to a specific Lender based on an applicable double tax treaty, the Non-refundable Portion is a specified lower rate in which case such lower rate shall be applied in relation to such Lender. If requested by a Lender, the relevant obligor shall provide to Administrative Agent the documents required by law or applicable double taxation treaties for the Lenders to prepare claims for the refund of any Swiss Withholding Tax so deducted.
(j) Interest Act (Canada) Disclosure. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure thereunder, whenever any interest or fee to be paid hereunder or in connection herewith is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is
equivalent is the rate so used multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained (365 or 366, as applicable) and divided by 360 or such other period of time, as applicable. The rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement. Each applicable Borrower confirms that it understands and is able to calculate the rate of interest applicable to Loans based on methodology for calculating per annum rates provided for in this Agreement. Each applicable Borrower irrevocably agrees not to plead or assert, whether by way of defence or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this Agreement or any transaction documents, that interest payable under this Agreement and the calculation thereof has not been adequately disclosed to each applicable Borrower as required pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada).
3.2 Fees.
(a) Upfront Fees. Each of Company and Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx shall pay (or cause to be paid) the fees as set forth in or otherwise contemplated by the Engagement Letter at the times set forth in such letter for distribution as set forth therein.
(b) Commitment Fees; Agency Fees.
(i) Commitment Fees. U.S. Borrower agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) to Administrative Agent for pro rata distribution to each Non-Defaulting Lender having a Dollar Revolving Commitment (based on its Dollar Revolver Pro Rata Share) a commitment fee in Dollars (the “Dollar Commitment Fee”) for the period commencing on the Closing Date to and including the Revolver Termination Date for the Dollar Revolving Facility or the earlier termination of the Dollar Revolving Commitments (and, in either case, repayment in full of the Dollar Revolving Loans and payment in full, or collateralization (by the deposit of cash into the Collateral Account or otherwise) in amounts and pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lenders, of the Dollar LC Obligations), computed at a rate equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage per annum on the average daily Total Available Dollar Revolving Commitment. Unless otherwise specified, accrued Dollar Commitment Fees shall be due and payable in arrears (A) on each Quarterly Payment Date, (B) on the Revolver Termination Date for the Dollar Revolving Facility and (C) upon any reduction or termination in whole or in part of the Dollar Revolving Commitments (but only, in the case of a reduction, on the portion of the Dollar Revolving Commitments then being reduced); and
(ii) U.S. Borrower agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) to Administrative Agent for pro rata distribution to each Non-Defaulting Lender having a Multicurrency Revolving Commitment (based on its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share) a commitment fee in Dollars (the “Multicurrency Commitment Fee”) for the period commending on the Closing Date to and including the Revolver Termination Date for the Multicurrency Revolving Facility or the earlier termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments (and, in either case, repayment in full of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans and payment in full, or collateralization (by the deposit of cash into the Collateral Account or otherwise) in amounts and pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lenders, of the Multicurrency LC Obligations), computed at a rate equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage per annum on the average daily Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitment. Unless otherwise specified, accrued Multicurrency Commitment Fees shall be due and payable (A) on each Quarterly Payment Date, (B) on the Revolver Termination Date for the Multicurrency Revolving Facility and (C) upon any reduction or termination in whole or in part of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments (but only, in the case of a reduction, on the portion of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments then being reduced).
(c) Agency Fees. U.S. Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to Administrative Agent for its own account, agency and other Loan fees in the amount and at the times set forth in the Engagement Letter.
3.3 Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest on all Loans and fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days; provided that (i) interest on all Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable and (ii) interest on all Loans denominated in ADollars shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 days. Each determination of an interest rate by Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. Administrative Agent shall, at any time and from time to time upon request of Borrowers’ Agent, deliver to Borrowers’ Agent a statement showing the quotations used by Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate applicable to Loans pursuant to this Agreement. Each change in the Applicable Base Rate Margin or Applicable Eurocurrency Margin or the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage as a result of a change in the Applicable Leverage Ratio shall become effective on the date upon which such change in such ratio occurs.
3.4 Interest Periods. At the time it gives any Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, the applicable Borrower shall elect, by giving Administrative Agent written notice, the interest period (each an “Interest Period”) which Interest Period shall, at the option of the applicable Borrower, be (x) one, two or three weeks (provided that such Interest Periods shall only be available in the case of Eurocurrency Loans made to ACI NZ if requested by ACI NZ in order to accommodate a refinancing event), (y) one, two, three or six months or, (z) if available to each of the applicable Lenders (as determined by each such applicable Lender in its sole discretion) a twelve-month period; provided that:
(a) all Eurocurrency Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;
(b) the initial Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Loan shall commence on the date of such Borrowing of such Eurocurrency Loan (including the date of any conversion thereto from a Loan of a different Type) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Eurocurrency Loan shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period;
(c) if any Interest Period relating to a Eurocurrency Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;
(d) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;
(e) no Interest Period may be selected at any time when an Event of Default is then in existence; provided, that Alternative Currency Loans shall continue with Interest Periods of one month if any Event of Default is then in existence;
(f) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the applicable Term Maturity Date for any Term Loan or the applicable Revolver Termination Date for any Revolving Loan;
(g) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of Term Loans of any Facility shall be selected which extends beyond any date upon which a mandatory repayment of such Term Facility will be required to be made under Section 4.4(b) or (c) as the case may be, if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Facility, which have Interest Periods which will expire after such date will be in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Facility then outstanding less the aggregate amount of such required prepayment; and
(h) if any Borrower requests any Eurocurrency Loan having an Interest Period with a duration other than one week or one, two, three or six months (but not longer than twelve months), the applicable interest rate for such period shall be the rate determined by Administrative Agent by means of straight-line interpolation (rounded upwards, if necessary to the next 1/100th of 1%) of (i) the rate that would be applicable for the next closest Interest Period otherwise available with a duration shorter than the requested period and (ii) the rate that would be applicable for the next closest Interest Period otherwise available with a duration longer than the requested period; provided that if the requested Interest Period extends over any year-end, the higher of the two rates will apply.
3.5 Compensation for Funding Losses. The applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurocurrency Loans to the extent not recovered by the Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds and including the compensation payable by such Lender to a Participant) and any loss sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds (including, without limitation, a return on such liquidation or re-employment that would result in such Lender receiving less than it would have received had such Eurocurrency Loan remained outstanding until the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Loans but excluding Excluded Taxes) which such Lender may sustain as a result of:
(a) for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or Administrative Agent) a continuation or Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, Eurocurrency Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation (whether or not withdrawn);
(b) any payment, prepayment or conversion or continuation of any of its Eurocurrency Loans occurring for any reason whatsoever on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto;
(c) any repayment of any of its Eurocurrency Loans not being made on the date specified in a notice of payment given by such Borrower; or
(d) (i) any other failure by such Borrower to repay such Borrower’s Eurocurrency Loans by the terms of this Agreement or (ii) an election made by Borrower pursuant to Section 3.7. A written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the incurrence of additional amounts owed such Lender under this Section 3.5 and delivered to such Borrower and Administrative Agent by such Lender shall, absent manifest or demonstrable error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 3.5 shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded its relevant Eurocurrency Loan through the purchase of a Eurocurrency deposit bearing interest at the Eurocurrency Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that Loan, having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurocurrency deposit from an offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of that Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its
Eurocurrency Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section 3.5.
(e) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 3.5 shall not apply to Taxes, except any Taxes that represent losses, expenses and liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim.
3.6 Increased Costs, Illegality, Etc.
(a) In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) below, may be made only by Administrative Agent):
(i) on any Interest Rate Determination Date that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurocurrency market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurocurrency Rate; or
(ii) at any time, that any Recipient shall incur increased costs or reduction in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Loan because of (x) any Change in Law having general applicability to all comparably situated Lenders within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates since the date of this Agreement such as, for example, but not limited to: (A) the imposition of any Tax of any kind with respect to this Agreement or any Loan (other than (I) Indemnified Taxes and (II) Excluded Taxes); provided, that, if such increased costs are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have been imposed as a result of a Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, such Lender will promptly repay to the applicable Borrower the amount of any increased costs paid to such Lender by such Borrower under this Section 3.6, or (B) a change in official reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirements by any Governmental Authority (but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Eurocurrency Rate) and/or (y) other circumstances since the date of this Agreement affecting such Lender or the interbank Eurocurrency market or the position of such Lender in such market (excluding, however, differences in a Lender’s cost of funds from those of Administrative Agent which are solely the result of credit differences between such Lender and Administrative Agent); provided, that, any increased cost arising as a result of any of the foregoing other than in respect of Taxes shall apply only to Eurocurrency Loans; or
(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurocurrency Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law, directive or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the date of this Agreement which materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurocurrency market;
then, and in any such event, such Lender (or Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrowers. Thereafter, (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurocurrency Loans shall no longer be available until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Borrowers’ Agent and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by any Borrower with respect to Eurocurrency Loans (other than with respect to conversions to Base Rate Loans, which shall be calculated without regard to clause (iii) of the definition thereof) which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by such Borrower and, in the case of Alternative Currency Loans, such Loans shall thereafter bear interest at a rate equal to Administrative Agent’s cost of funds for such Alternative Currency plus the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above,
such Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within ten days of written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (any written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the reasonable basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to Borrowers’ Agent by such Lender shall, absent manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding; provided, that, no Lender shall be entitled to receive additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6 for periods occurring prior to the 135th day before the giving of such notice, except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such additional amounts is retroactive, then the 135 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof); and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, such Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 3.6(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law. In determining such additional amounts pursuant to clause (y) of the immediately preceding sentence, each Lender shall act reasonably and in good faith and will, to the extent the increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable relate to such Lender’s loans in general and are not specifically attributable to a Loan hereunder, use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable and which cover all loans similar to the Loans made by such Lender whether or not the loan documentation for such other loans permits the Lender to receive increased costs of the type described in this Section 3.6(a).
(b) Eurocurrency Loans. (i) At any time that any Eurocurrency Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.6(a)(ii) or (iii), any Borrower may (and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.6(a)(iii), shall) either (A) if the affected Eurocurrency Loan is then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, by giving Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date that the Borrowers’ Agent or the applicable Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.6(a)(ii) or (iii), cancel the respective Borrowing, or (B) if the affected Eurocurrency Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to Administrative Agent, (A) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in Dollars, require the affected Lender to convert such Eurocurrency Loan into a Base Rate Loan (which shall be calculated without regard to clause (iii) of the definition thereof) or (B) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in an Alternative Currency, prepay such Eurocurrency Loan in accordance with Section 4.3, provided, that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 3.6(b).
(ii) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in Section 3.6(a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in Section 3.6(a)(i) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the US LIBOR Screen Rate, the EURIBOR Screen Rate, the AUD LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the US LIBOR Screen Rate, the EURIBOR Screen Rate or the AUD LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrowers shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurocurrency Rate for each applicable currency that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans denominated in each such currency in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12.1, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this
Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Requisite Lenders with respect to each applicable Facility stating that such Requisite Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b), (x) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, (y) if any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall (A) if denominated in Dollars, be made as a Base Rate Borrowing (calculated without regard to clause (iii) of the definition thereof) and (B) if denominated in any Alternative Currency, shall be deemed to be ineffective; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.
(c) Capital Requirements. Without duplication of Section 3.6(a), if any Lender determines that any Change in Law concerning capital adequacy or liquidity requirements by any Governmental Authority will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within fifteen days of its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital or liquidity.
(d) Certificates for Reimbursement. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.6, will give prompt written notice thereof to Borrowers’ Agent and Administrative Agent (which notice Administrative Agent will promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders), which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish any of any Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6; provided, that, no Lender shall be entitled to receive additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6 (other than pursuant to Section 3.6(a)(ii)) for periods occurring prior to the 135th day before the giving of such notice, except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 135-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable and which will, to the extent the increased costs or reduction in the rate of return relates to such Lender’s commitments, loans or obligations in general and are not specifically attributable to the Commitments, Loans and obligations hereunder, cover all commitments, loans and obligations similar to the Commitments, Loans and obligations of such Lender hereunder whether or not the loan documentation for such other commitments, loans or obligations permits the Lender to make the determination specified in this Section 3.6. Such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.6(d), will give prompt written notice thereof to Borrowers, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts.
3.7 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Affected Lenders.
(a) Change of Lending Office. Each Lender which is or will be owed compensation pursuant to Section 3.6(a) or (c) or Section 4.7(a) or (c) will, if requested by Borrowers’ Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to cause a different branch or Affiliate to make or continue a Loan or Letter of Credit or to assign its rights
and obligations hereunder to another of its branches or Affiliates if in the judgment of such Lender such designation or assignment will avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of, such compensation to such Lender and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous in any significant respect to such Lender. Company hereby agrees to pay, or to cause the applicable Borrower to pay, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with such designation or assignment. Nothing in this Section 3.7(a) shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of any Borrower or the right of any Lender provided for herein.
(b) Replacement of Lenders. If (x) any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or otherwise defaults in its obligations to make Loans or fund Unpaid Drawings, (y) any Lender is owed increased costs under Section 3.6(a)(ii) or (iii) or Section 3.6(c) or Section 4.7(a), (b) or (c) materially in excess of increased costs owed to the other Lenders or (z) as provided in Section 12.1(b) any Lender refuses to consent to certain proposed amendments, changes, supplements, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement, Company shall have the right to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Assignee or Eligible Assignees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender or a Disqualified Institution at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”), reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, provided that (i) in the case of any replacement made pursuant to clause (y), such replacement will reduce the amount of any compensation payable by the Loan Parties under Section 3.6(a)(ii) or (iii) or Section 3.6(c) or Section 4.7(a), (b), or (c), (ii) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 3.7, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more assignment agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of, and participations in Letters of Credit and Overdraft Amounts by, the Replaced Lender (or, at the option of Borrowers’ Agent if the respective Lender’s consent is required with respect to less than all Loans, to replace only the respective Loans of the respective non-consenting Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s individual consent), (iii) Company shall have paid, or shall have caused the applicable Borrower to pay, to Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 12.8, and (iv) all obligations of all Loan Parties owing to the Replaced Lender (including, without limitation, such increased costs and excluding those specifically described in clause (ii) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement. Upon the execution of the respective assignment documentation, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by each applicable Borrowers, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and, unless the Replaced Lender continues to have outstanding Loans hereunder, the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including under Section 4.7), which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, no Lender that acts as a Issuing Lender may be replaced hereunder at any time when it has Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender (including the furnishing of a Letter of Credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer satisfactory to such Issuing Lender or the depositing of cash collateral into the Collateral Account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender) have been made with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit.
ARTICLE IV

4.1 Voluntary Reduction of Commitments. Upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing) (which notice may be conditioned upon
the happening of a future event) to Administrative Agent at the Notice Address (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each Lender), Borrowers’ Agent shall have the right, without premium or penalty, to terminate the unutilized portion of the Dollar Revolving Commitments or the Multicurrency Revolving Commitment in part or in whole, provided that (x) any such voluntary termination of the Dollar Revolving Commitment or Multicurrency Revolving Commitment shall apply to proportionately and permanently reduce the Dollar Revolving Commitment or Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of each Dollar Revolving Lender or Multicurrency Revolving Lender, as the case may be, (y) any partial voluntary reduction pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount and (z) any such voluntary termination of the Dollar Revolving Commitment or Multicurrency Revolving Commitment shall occur simultaneously with a voluntary prepayment, pursuant to Section 4.3 to the extent necessary such that the Total Dollar Revolving Commitment or Total Multicurrency Revolving Commitment, as applicable, shall not be reduced below (1) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Dollar Revolving Loans plus the aggregate amount of outstanding Dollar LC Obligations in the case of the Dollar Revolving Commitment or (2) the Effective Amount of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans plus the aggregate Effective Amount of Multicurrency LC Obligations and Overdraft Amounts, in the case of Multicurrency Revolving Commitments.
4.2 Mandatory Reductions of Term Loan Commitments. Each of the Term Loan Commitments shall automatically and permanently terminate on the Closing Date after giving effect to the Borrowing of such Term Loans.
4.3 Voluntary Prepayments. Each Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans without premium or penalty in whole or in part from time to time on the following terms and conditions:
(a) the applicable Borrower shall give Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice (which notice may be conditioned upon the happening of an event) at its Notice Address (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to prepay the Loans, whether such Loans are Term Loans (and if so, the applicable Term Facilities), Dollar Revolving Loans or Multicurrency Revolving Loans, the amount of such prepayment and the specific Borrowings to which such prepayment is to be applied, which notice shall be given by the applicable Borrower to Administrative Agent by 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at least three (3) Business Days prior in the case of Eurocurrency Loans and at least one (1) Business Day prior in the case of Base Rate Loans to the date of such prepayment and which notice shall promptly be transmitted by Administrative Agent to each of the applicable Lenders;
(b) each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or €1,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof in any other Alternative Currency); provided that no partial prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto;
(c) Eurocurrency Loans may only be prepaid pursuant to this Section 4.3 on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto or on any other day subject to Section 3.5;
(d) each prepayment in respect of any Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among the Loans comprising such Borrowing, provided, that such prepayment shall not be applied to any Loans of a Defaulting Lender at any time when the aggregate amount of Loans of any Non-

(e) each voluntary prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall be applied (i) to the particular Term Facilities as specified by the applicable Borrower in the notice delivered pursuant to Section 4.3(a) (or in the absence of such direction, among the Term Facilities on a pro rata basis) and (ii) within each Term Facility, as directed by the applicable Borrower to any or all of the remaining Scheduled Term Repayments with respect to such Term Facility (in the amounts designated by such Borrower); provided that in the absence of direction from the applicable Borrower, Administrative Agent shall apply such prepayment to the remaining Scheduled Term Repayments with respect to such Term Facility in direct order of maturity. Unless otherwise specified by the applicable Borrower, such prepayment under a Term Facility shall be applied first to the payment of Base Rate Loans and second to the payment of such Eurocurrency Loans under such Term Facility.
The notice provisions, the provisions with respect to the minimum amount of any prepayment and the provisions requiring prepayments in integral multiples above such minimum amount of this Section 4.3 are for the benefit of Administrative Agent and may be waived or modified unilaterally by Administrative Agent.
4.4 Mandatory Prepayments.
(a) Prepayment Upon Overadvance.
(i) U.S. Borrower and/or any applicable Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans under the Dollar Revolving Facility on any date on which the aggregate Effective Amount of such Loans and all Dollar LC Obligations exceeds the aggregate Dollar Revolving Commitment, in the amount of such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Dollar Revolving Loans, the aggregate Effective Amount of Dollar LC Obligations exceeds the aggregate Dollar Revolving Commitments then in effect, such Borrower shall cash collateralize Dollar LC Obligations by depositing, pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, cash with Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the positive difference, if any, between the Effective Amount of such Dollar LC Obligations and the aggregate Dollar Revolving Commitments then in effect. Administrative Agent shall establish in its name for the benefit of the Dollar Revolving Lenders a cash collateral account (the “Collateral Account”) into which it shall deposit such cash to hold as collateral security for the Dollar LC Obligations.
(ii) Each applicable Multicurrency Revolving Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility on any date on which the aggregate Effective Amount of such Loans, together with the aggregate Effective Amount of Multicurrency LC Obligations and Effective Amount of Overdraft Amounts exceeds the aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, in the amount of such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans, the aggregate Effective Amount of Multicurrency LC Obligations, plus the aggregate Effective Amount of Overdraft Amounts exceeds the aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Commitments then in effect, each applicable Borrower shall cash collateralize Multicurrency LC Obligations by depositing, pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, cash with Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the positive difference, if any, between the Effective Amount of such Multicurrency LC Obligations and the aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Commitments then in effect. Administrative Agent shall establish in its name for the benefit of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders a cash collateral
account into which it shall deposit such cash to hold as collateral security for the Multicurrency LC Obligations.
(b) Scheduled Term Repayments. The applicable Borrower shall cause to be paid Scheduled Term Repayments for the Term Loans under each Term Facility until the Term Loans are paid in full in the amounts and currencies and at the times specified in each of the Scheduled Term Repayment definition to the extent that prepayments have not previously been applied to such Scheduled Term Repayments (and such Scheduled Term Repayments have not otherwise been reduced) pursuant to the terms hereof.
(c) Mandatory Prepayment Upon Asset Sale. From and after the Closing Date, (i) on the third Business Day after the date of receipt thereof by Company or any of the other Loan Parties of any Net Proceeds in respect of any Triggering Asset Sale by Company or any such other Loan Parties, the Borrowers shall (A) prepay Term Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the portion of the Net Proceeds permitted to be applied to the Term Loans under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, and (y) the aggregate amount of Term Loans outstanding, and/or (B) if and to the extent required hereunder, permanently reduce the Dollar Revolving Commitments and the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments on a pro rata basis by an amount equal to the respective Dollar Revolving Commitments and Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, multiplied by the positive difference (if any) between the Net Proceeds permitted to be applied to the Term Loans under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and amounts applied to the Term Loans under clause (i)(A) of this clause (c), and (ii) in the event of a Triggering Asset Sale by a foreign Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Company that is not an Offshore Borrower or Offshore Guarantor, not later than the third Business Day after receipt by such Restricted Foreign Subsidiary of any Net Proceeds, if and to the extent such Net Proceeds may be repatriated or otherwise transferred (by reason of payment of intercompany note or otherwise) to a Borrower or Borrowers with Term Loans outstanding without (in the reasonable judgment of Company) resulting in a material tax or other liability to Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, such Net Proceeds shall be applied pursuant to clause (i) above; provided, that any such Net Proceeds therefrom shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that (A) no Loan Party would be obligated to make an offer to purchase any Indebtedness if such Net Proceeds were not used to repay Term Loans and (B) no Event of Default then exists and such Loan Party uses such Net Proceeds to make Investments in Restricted Subsidiaries, purchase assets or reinvest in the business of Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries within 365 days of the date of such Asset Sale; provided, further, that (A) if all or any portion of such Net Proceeds not so applied to the repayment of Term Loans are not so used (or contractually committed to be used within 180 days from the date of such commitment) within such 365 day period, such remaining portion shall be applied on the last day of the respective period as a mandatory repayment of principal of outstanding Term Loans as provided above in this Section 4.4(c) and (B) if all or any portion of such Net Proceeds are not required to be applied on the 365th day referred to in clause (i) above because such amount is contractually committed to be used and subsequent to such date such contract is terminated or expires without such portion being so used (or if such portion is not so used within 180 days from the date of such contract), then such remaining portion shall be applied on the date of such termination or expiration as a mandatory repayment of principal of outstanding Term Loans as provided in this Section 4.4(c).
(d) [Reserved].
(e) Mandatory Prepayment with Proceeds of Indebtedness. From and after the Closing Date, promptly on receipt of Net Proceeds by Company, Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx or any or the Subsidiary Guarantors from the issuance of Permitted Secured Debt issued following the Closing Date, (i) the Borrowers of Term Loans shall prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net
Proceeds and (ii) if, and to the extent required hereunder, the Dollar Revolving Commitments and the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments shall be permanently reduced on a pro rata basis by an amount equal to the positive difference (if any) between the Net Proceeds and the amounts thereof applied to the Term Loans under clause (i) of this clause (e); provided, that the Borrowers’ Agent may elect by written notice to Administrative Agent following receipt of such Net Proceeds with respect to Permitted Secured Debt, to reduce the amount of any required prepayment or commitment reduction, as the case may be, under this clause (e) by up to the maximum amount of Loans and Commitments permitted to be added to this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.10 (any Permitted Secured Debt for which such election is made being referred to as “Accordion-Reducing Permitted Secured Debt”). Any mandatory prepayment under this clause (e) shall be applied in the order set forth in Section 4.5.
(f) Mandatory Prepayment Upon Recovery Event. From and after the Closing Date, within ten (10) days following each date on which Company or any other Loan Party receives any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds from any Recovery Event, the Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the portion of the Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds permitted to be applied to the Loans under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and (B) the aggregate amount of Term Loans outstanding; provided that any such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds therefrom shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that (A) no Loan Party would be obligated to make an offer to purchase any Indebtedness if such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds were not used to repay Term Loans and (B) no Event of Default then exists and such Loan Party uses such Net Proceeds to make Investments in Restricted Subsidiaries, purchase assets or reinvest in the business of Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries within 365 days of the date on which Company or any Loan Party receives such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds; and, provided, further, that:
(i) if all or any portion of such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds not required to be applied to the repayment of Term Loans pursuant to the first proviso of this Section 4.4(f) are not so used (or contractually committed to be used within 180 days from the date of such commitment) within 365 days after the day of the receipt of such proceeds, such remaining portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as a mandatory repayment of principal of the Term Loans provided in this Section 4.4(f); and
(ii) if all or any portion of such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds are not required to be applied on the 365th day referred to in clause (i) above because such amount is contractually committed to be used and subsequent to such date such contract is terminated or expires without such portion being so used (or if such portion is not so used within 180 days from the date of such contract), then such remaining portion shall be applied on the date of such termination or expiration as a mandatory repayment of principal of outstanding Term Loans as provided in this Section 4.4(f).
(g) Repatriation of Proceeds. Notwithstanding any other provisions of Sections 4.4(c), 4.4(e) or 4.4(f) to the extent that any of or all the Net Proceeds of any asset disposition or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds of any Recovery Event are received by a Foreign Subsidiary, or to the extent that any of or all the excess cash on hand is attributable to the results of operations of, one or more Foreign Subsidiaries, or the sale of assets of, or any Recovery Event with respect to the assets of, one or more Foreign Subsidiaries (in each case, “Foreign Proceeds”) and the repatriation of such Foreign Proceeds to a Borrower would (x) result in material adverse Tax consequences to Company or any other Subsidiary or (y) would be prohibited or restricted by applicable law, rule or regulation or contract (each, a “Repatriation Limitation”), the portion of such Foreign Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied by such Borrower to repay Loans or reduce any Commitments hereunder but may be retained by the applicable Foreign
Subsidiary so long as such Repatriation Limitation exists (provided that (x) to the extent such Foreign Subsidiary is itself a Borrower, such Foreign Subsidiary shall comply with its own obligations to make any prepayments hereunder notwithstanding any such Repatriation Limitation and (y) Company hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take commercially reasonable actions required by the applicable law, rule or regulation to overcome or mitigate the effect of the Repatriation Limitation so as to permit such repatriation to the applicable Borrower or to any other Borrower not subject to such Repatriation Limitation) and once such Repatriation Limitation no longer exists, such Subsidiary shall promptly repatriate an amount equal to such Foreign Proceeds to the applicable Borrower which shall promptly (and in any event not later than 10 Business Days after such repatriation) apply such amount to the repayment of the Loans to the extent it would have otherwise been required pursuant to Section 4.4(c) and/or Section 4.4(e) and/or Section 4.4(f).
4.5 Application of Prepayments; Waiver of Certain Prepayments.
(a) Prepayments. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, all prepayments of principal made by Borrowers pursuant to Section 4.4 shall be applied (i) first to the payment of the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Term Loans until paid in full, and second, if an Event of Default then exists, to the payment of the then outstanding balance of the Revolving Loans, and the cash collateralization of LC Obligations and to the payment of the then outstanding balance of Overdraft Amounts, on a pro rata basis, with any excess being retained by the applicable Borrower; (ii) within each of the foregoing Loans under a particular Facility, first to the payment of Base Rate Loans under such Facility and second to the payment of Eurocurrency Loans under such Facility; and (iii) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, in such order as Borrowers shall request (and in the absence of such request, as Administrative Agent shall determine). Each prepayment of Term Loans made pursuant to Section 4.4(c), (e) and (f) shall be applied to the Term Loans of each Term Facility pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans of each Term Facility (in each case, within each Term Facility ratably to the remaining Scheduled Term Repayments thereof in forward order of maturity). If any prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans, denominated in Dollars, made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, such Borrowing shall immediately be converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars. All prepayments shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount so prepaid, shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to principal and shall include amounts payable, if any, under Section 3.5.
(b) Payments. All regular installment payments of principal on the Term Loans under a particular Term Facility shall be applied (i) first to the payment of Base Rate Loans under such Term Facility (if any) and second to the payment of Eurocurrency Loans under such Term Facility and (ii) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, in such order as Borrowers shall request (and in the absence of such request, as Administrative Agent shall determine). All payments shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount so paid, shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to principal and shall include amounts payable, if any, under Section 3.5.
4.6 Method and Place of Payment.
(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto, not later than 12:00 Noon (local time in the city in which the Payment Office for the payment is located) on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds in the Applicable Currency and in each case to the account specified therefor for Administrative Agent or if no account has been so specified at the Payment Office, it being understood that with respect
to payments in Dollars, written telex or telecopy notice by U.S. Borrower to Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in U.S. Borrower’s account at the Payment Office shall constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such funds held in such account. Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon or local time in the city in which the Payment Office for the payment is located on such day) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or fees ratably to the Lenders entitled to receive any such payment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If and to the extent that any such distribution shall not be so made by Administrative Agent in full on the same day (if payment was actually received by Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon or local time in the city in which the Payment Office for the payment is located on such day), Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender its ratable amount thereof and each such Lender shall be entitled to receive from Administrative Agent, upon demand, interest on such amount at the Federal Funds Rate (or the applicable cost of funds with respect to amounts denominated in an Alternative Currency) for each day from the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent pays such amount to such Lender.
(b) Any payments under this Agreement which are made by any Borrower later than 12:00 Noon (local time in the city in which the Payment Office for the payment is located) shall, for the purpose of calculation of interest, be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension, except that with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, if such next succeeding Business Day is not in the same month as the date on which such payment would otherwise be due hereunder or under any Note, the due date with respect thereto shall be the next preceding applicable Business Day.
(c) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lenders hereunder that the applicable Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for amounts in Dollars (and, at Administrative Agent’s cost of funds for amounts in any Alternative Currency) for the first three days and thereafter at the Federal Funds Rate (or such cost of funds rate) plus 1%.
4.7 Net Payments.
(a) All payments made by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document will be made without recoupment, setoff, counterclaim, or other defense. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments under any Loan Document (including, without limitation, payments on account of principal and interest, and fees) shall be made by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires an applicable withholding agent to deduct or withhold any Tax from any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan
Document, then the applicable withholding agent shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, to the extent such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the applicable Loan Party shall pay such additional amounts as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.7(a)), the applicable Recipient receives, in aggregate, an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. Each Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent within 30 days after it has made any such payment to the applicable Governmental Authority an original or certified receipt issued by such Governmental Authority (or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent) evidencing the payment to such Governmental Authority of all amounts so required to be deducted or withheld from such payment.
(b) The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(c) OI Europe shall only with respect to Indemnified Taxes imposed on it or attributable to any payments made by or on its behalf, and the other Loan Parties shall jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.7) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, however, that if a Recipient does not notify the applicable Borrower of any indemnification claim under this Section 4.7(c) within 120 days after such Recipient has received written notice of the claim of a Governmental Authority giving rise to such indemnification claim, the Loan Parties shall not be required to indemnify such Recipient for any incremental interest or penalties resulting from such Recipient’s failure to notify the applicable Borrower within such 120-day period. A certificate delivered to the applicable Borrower (showing in reasonable detail the basis for such calculation) as to the amount of such payment by a Recipient (with a copy to Administrative Agent if such Recipient is not Administrative Agent), absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon on all parties.
(d) (i) Subject to Section 4.7(e), each Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and Administrative Agent, at such times as are reasonably requested by such Borrower or Administrative Agent, any documentation prescribed by law or information required under any administrative policy or any relevant Governmental Authority, or reasonably requested by such Borrower or Administrative Agent, certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise required or reasonably necessary to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax or information reporting purposes in an applicable jurisdiction. Each Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation (including any specific documents required below in this Section 4.7(d)) or information expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the applicable Borrower and Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent) or promptly notify such Borrower and Administrative Agent of its inability to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 4.7(d)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(C) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or
submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to each Lender receiving payments in respect of any Loans, Letters of Credit, or Commitments provided to U.S. Borrower:
(A) each such Lender, other than a Non-U.S. Lender, shall deliver to U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement, two duly executed, properly completed originals or copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax,
(B) each such Lender that is a Non-U.S. Lender entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax with respect to any payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement, whichever of the following is applicable:
(I) duly executed, properly completed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E or any successor thereto claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;
(II) duly executed, properly completed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto;
(III) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”), in substantially the form of Exhibit 4.7(d)-1, to the effect that (i) such Non-U.S. Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of U.S. Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (ii) interest payments on the Loans are not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Lender’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business, and (y) duly executed, properly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E;
(IV) to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), duly executed, properly completed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, or any successor thereto, of the Non-U.S. Lender, accompanied by IRS Form W-9, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.7(d)-2 or Exhibit 4.7(d)-3, Form W-8IMY, or any other required information, or any successor forms, from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 4.7(d) if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and not a participating Lender), and one or more beneficial owners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.7(d)-4 may be provided by such Non-U.S. Lender on behalf of such beneficial owners, provided such certificates are duly executed and properly completed originals), or any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; or
(V) any other form prescribed by applicable requirements of U.S. federal income tax law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(C) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by U.S. Borrower or Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by U.S. Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for U.S. Borrower or Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender or Issuing Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine or, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (C), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.7(d), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.
(e) Each Agent, Lender, Documentation Agent and Arranger will cooperate with ACI, and will do or provide such other things as may be reasonably requested from time to time by ACI, to demonstrate that the requirements of section 128F of the Income Tax Assessment Act of 1936 (Commonwealth of Australia) were satisfied in relation to the issues of Tranche B Term Loans and Revolving Loans made to ACI and Notes issued by ACI under this Agreement, so that payment of interest under each of the above-mentioned Loans will be exempt from withholding tax under the Income Tax Assessment Act of 1936 (Commonwealth of Australia). Non-compliance by any Arranger or Documentation Agent with this paragraph shall not relieve ACI of its obligations under Sections 4.7(a) or 4.7(c).
(f) Each Lender under the Tranche C Term Facility represents and warrants to ACI NZ that as of the Closing Date and on any date that any interest (or any payment deemed by applicable law to be interest) is payable in respect of the Tranche C Term Loans that if it receives any such payment under this Agreement subject to the New Zealand resident withholding tax rules, it holds an “RWT exemption certificate” (as defined in the New Zealand Income Tax Act 2007 (New Zealand)) or otherwise has exempt status in respect of New Zealand resident withholding tax. Non-compliance by any Lender with this clause (f) shall not relieve ACI NZ of its obligations under Section 4.7(a).
(g) ACI NZ or any other Loan Party who makes a payment under this Agreement subject to the New Zealand non-resident withholding tax rules may at any time, and shall if requested by any Lender under the Tranche C Term Facility:
(i) if permitted by applicable law, register as an “Approved Issuer” (as defined in the New Zealand Income Tax Act 2007 (New Zealand)) and register this document with the New Zealand Inland Revenue Department under section 86H of the Stamp and Cheque Duties Xxx 0000 (New Zealand); and
(ii) in respect of each payment of interest (or any payment deemed by applicable law to be interest) in respect of the Tranche C Term Loans to a Lender that receives such
payments subject to the New Zealand non-resident withholding tax rules, make the relevant payment of “Approved Issuer Levy” (as defined in the Stamp and Cheque Duties Act 1971 (New Zealand)) in accordance with section 86K of the Stamp and Cheque Duties Xxx 0000 (New Zealand) in order to reduce (to the extent permitted by law) the applicable level of non-resident withholding tax to zero per cent.
(h) Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.8 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (f).
(i) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 4.7 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.7), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 4.7 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(j) For purposes of this Section 4.7, the term “Lender” shall include any Overdraft Provider or Issuing Lender, and the term “applicable law” shall include FATCA.
(k) Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.7 shall survive the resignation or replacement of any Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender.

7.10 Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries.
The Borrowers’ Agent may at any time after the Closing Date designate any Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Loan Party) as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (a) immediately before and after such designation, no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (b) immediately after giving effect to such designation, Company shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Sections 8.3 and 9.1, determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter, in each case, as if such designation had occurred on the last day of such fiscal quarter of Company and, as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any such designation, Company shall deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations demonstrating such compliance, (c) no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it was previously designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary and (d) Company shall cause each Unrestricted Subsidiary to simultaneously be designated as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” under the Existing Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx Senior Unsecured Notes, any Permitted Secured Debt, any Permitted Unsecured Debt, any Permitted European Senior Debt or any other Indebtedness the terms of which permits a similar designation.
The designation of any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Closing Date shall constitute an Investment by the applicable Loan Party therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the fair market value of the applicable Loan Party’s investment therein. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (x) the incurrence at the time of designation of any Investment, Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time, and (y) a return on any Investment by the applicable Loan Party in such Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the fair market value at the date of such designation of such Loan Party’s Investment in such Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no existing or future Borrower shall be permitted to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary.
7.11 Personal Property Securities Act.
(a) PPSA Laws Further Steps. If the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent determines that a Collateral Document (or a transaction in connection with it) is or contains a security interest for the purposes of the PPSA Laws, the Loan Party agrees to do anything (such as obtaining consents, signing and producing documents, getting documents completed and signed and supplying information) which Administrative Agent asks and considers necessary (acting reasonably) for the purposes of:
(i) ensuring that the security interest is enforceable, perfected (including, where possible, by control in addition to registration) and otherwise effective;
(ii) enabling Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to apply for any registration, or give any notification, in connection with the security interest so that the security interest has the same priority which it had prior to the introduction of the PPSA Laws; or
(iii) enabling Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to exercise rights in connection with the security interest.
(b) PPSA Laws Undertaking. If any Loan Party has granted any security interests for the purposes of the PPSA Laws and if a failure by such Loan Party to perfect some or all of those security interests would materially adversely affect the business, operation, property, condition (financial or otherwise), or prospects of the Loan Parties (taken as a whole), the Loan Party agrees to implement, maintain and comply in all material respects with, procedures for the perfection of those security interests. These procedures must include procedures designed to ensure that the Loan Party takes all reasonable steps under the PPSA Laws to perfect any such security interest with the highest ranking priority reasonably possible (such as perfecting a purchase money security interest, perfecting a security interest by control (to the extent applicable) or including the serial number in a financing statement for personal property that may or must be described by a serial number). If Administrative Agent asks, the Loan Party agrees to arrange at its expense an audit of the PPSA Laws procedures. Administrative Agent may only ask a Loan Party to do this if it reasonably suspects that such Loan Party is not complying with this clause.
(c) No PPSA Laws Notice Required Unless Mandatory. The Administrative Agent and/or or Collateral Agent (as applicable) need not give any notice under the PPSA Laws (including a notice of a verification statement or financing change statement) unless the notice is required by the PPSA Laws and cannot be excluded.
(d) NZ PPSA waivers. Each Borrower, on behalf of itself and the Guarantors, and the Collateral Agent agree that, to the extent permitted by law and in respect of each Collateral Document and each Lien created under a Collateral Document:
(i) each Borrower and Guarantor and the Collateral Agent contract out of sections 114(1)(a), 133 and 134 of the NZ PPSA; and
(ii) each Borrower and Guarantor and the Collateral Agent contract out of the Loan Party’s rights to (and each Loan Party waives its rights to):
(A) receive a statement of account under section 116 of the NZ PPSA;
(B) receive notice of the Collateral Agent’s proposal to retain personal property (as defined in the NZ PPSA) under section 120(2) of the NZ PPSA;
(C) object to the Collateral Agent’s proposal to retain any personal property (as defined in the NZ PPSA) under section 121 of the NZ PPSA;
(D) not have goods damaged when the Collateral Agent (or any person on its behalf) removes an accession under section 125 of the NZ PPSA;
(E) be reimbursed for damage caused when the Collateral Agent (or any person on its behalf) removes an accession under section 126 of the NZ PPSA;
(F) refuse permission to remove an accession under section 127 of the NZ PPSA;
(G) receive notice of the removal of an accession under section 129 of the NZ PPSA; and
(H) apply to the applicable court for an order concerning the removal of an accession under section 131 of the NZ PPSA.
7.12 Use of Proceeds. Borrowers will use all proceeds of the Loans as provided in Sections 6.8, 6.17 and 6.18. In addition, Borrowers will use all proceeds of the Tranche A Term Loan Facility, the Tranche B Term Loan Facility, the Tranche C Term Loan Facility, the Dollar Revolving Facility and the Multicurrency Revolving Facility (i) to repay the loans under the Existing Credit Agreement and pay related fees and expenses and (ii) to provide financing for general corporate purpose (including working capital requirements) of Company, the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries.
7.13 Post-Closing Matters. Company and Borrowers shall (a) on or prior to the date occurring five Business Days after the Closing Date (or such later date as Administrative Agent may approve in its sole discretion), deliver to Administrative Agent endorsements with respect to its insurance policies (to the extent required by Section 7.4) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and (b) on or prior to the date occurring three Business Days after the Closing Date (or such later date as Administrative Agent may approve in its sole discretion), deliver to Administrative Agent a copy of a favorable written opinion of Xxxxxxx Xxx, Australian counsel to ACI, with respect to the Second Australian Acknowledgment Side Deed.

(a) Each of the Lenders and each Overdraft Provider in such capacity hereby (i) appoints DB to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder, as Collateral Agent under all
Collateral Documents (for purposes of this Agreement, the term “Administrative Agent” shall include DB in its capacity as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents) to act as herein specified herein and in the other Loan Documents, including amending the Loan Documents pursuant to Section 12.1. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes and each holder of any Note by the acceptance of such Note shall be deemed to irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions hereof, the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, to give notices and take such actions on behalf of the Requisite Lenders as are consented to in writing by the Requisite Lenders) and any other instruments, documents and agreements referred to herein or therein and to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, by or through its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates.

11.2 Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation to make Loans under this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lender,” “Requisite Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, include Administrative Agent in its respective individual capacities. Administrative Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, trust or other business with, or provide debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party (or any Person engaged in a similar business with any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof) as if they were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.
11.3 Nature of Duties.
(a) Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Arrangers, Documentation Agents and Senior Managing Agents shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, unless caused by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). The duties of Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note; and nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan Document, each Arranger, Documentation Agent and Senior Managing Agent is named
as such for recognition purposes only, and in its capacity as such shall have no powers, duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; it being understood and agreed that each Arranger, Documentation Agent and Senior Managing Agent shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of Administrative Agent as, and to the extent, provided for under Section 12.4. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Arranger, Documentation Agent and Senior Managing Agent shall not, solely by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person.
(c) If Administrative Agent requests instructions from the Requisite Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from the Requisite Lenders; and Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Lender by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, neither any Lender nor the holder of any Note shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders.
(d) Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (i) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (ii) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.
11.4 Reliance. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by any Person that Administrative Agent believed to be the proper Person, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and any other Loan Document and its duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by Administrative Agent.
11.5 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub- agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article XI, as well as the indemnification provision of Section 12.4(b), shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
11.6 Resignation by Administrative Agent.
(a) Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its respective functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Loan Documents at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and, unless an Event of Default under Section 10.1(a) or 10.1(i) then exists, Borrowers’ Agent. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.
(b) Upon any such notice of resignation by Administrative Agent, the Requisite Lenders shall, upon five (5) days’ notice to Company and Borrowers’ Agent, appoint a successor Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder who shall be a commercial bank or trust and such appointment shall be subject to the consent of Borrowers’ Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (provided that approval by Borrowers’ Agent shall not be required if an Event of Default under Section 10.1(a) or 10.1(i) then exists).
(c) If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been so appointed within such thirty (30) day period, Administrative Agent, with the consent of Borrowers’ Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that the consent of Borrowers’ Agent shall not be required if an Event of Default under Section 10.1(a) or 10.1(i) then exists), shall then appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall serve as Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders (with the consent of Borrowers’ Agent as provided above) appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.
(d) If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the thirtieth (30th) day after the date such notice of resignation was given by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and the Requisite Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders (with the consent of the Borrower as provided above) appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above. However, in the case of any Collateral held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders, or in the case of Dutch Collateral Documents on its own behalf, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a replacement Collateral Agent has been appointed and until all legal steps and formalities to ensure the Collateral is validly held by such replacement Collateral Agent have been fulfilled.
(e) Upon a resignation of Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.6, Administrative Agent shall remain indemnified to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the provisions of this Article XI (and the analogous provisions of the other Loan Documents) and Section 12.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of Administrative Agent for all of its actions and inactions while serving as Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 11.6). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.
(f) Any resignation of Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.6 shall also constitute the resignation of Administrative Agent as the provider of the Domestic Overdraft Account and the resignation or removal of Administrative Agent or its Affiliate as Collateral Agent, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section 11.6 shall, upon its acceptance of, and as a condition to, such appointment, become the successor provider of the Domestic Overdraft Account and Collateral Agent for all purposes hereunder. In the event of any such resignation (i) Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx shall repay in full the Domestic Overdraft Amount and all other amounts owing to the retiring Administrative Agent under the Domestic Overdraft Agreement, and (ii) Borrowers and the retiring Administrative Agent shall terminate the Domestic Overdraft Agreement to which they are a party and Company and the successor Administrative Agent shall enter into a successor Domestic Overdraft Agreement.
11.7 Lack of Reliance on Administrative Agent. Independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, each Lender and the holder of each Note, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Company, the Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Company, the Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the financial condition of Company, the Borrowers or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the financial condition of Company, the Borrowers or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or the existence or possible existence of any Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default.
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit (as applicable). Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
11.8 No Other Duties, Etc.
(a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of Administrative Agent, Joint Bookrunners, the Arrangers, Documentation Agents or Senior Managing Agents identified herein shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.
(b) Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by Administrative Agent from any Loan Party, any Subsidiary, the Requisite Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession of
Administrative Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.
11.9 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise
(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and Administrative Agent under Sections 3.2 and 12.4) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, Receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, if Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 3.2 and 12.4.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or in any such proceeding.
11.10 Intercreditor Agreements, Collateral and Guaranty Matters.
(a) Each Lender and Issuing Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement in the form of Exhibit 5.1(j) attached hereto on behalf of and for the benefit of that Lender and Issuing Lender, and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby authorizes Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, including (without limitation) any Reaffirmation Agreement and each other Collateral Document described in Sections 5.2(i) and (j). Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Secured Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Secured Party, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Collateral Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents.
(b) The Lenders (and, by their acceptance of the benefit of the applicable Collateral Documents and certain other Loan Documents, the Secured Parties) hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent, in accordance with the terms hereof, (1) to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) automatically upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations as provided in Section 12.15, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than any Loan Party) automatically upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 8.7, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 12.1), (iv) automatically upon an Initial Collateral Release Period or a Subsequent Collateral Release Period, as applicable, as provided in this Section 11.10, (v) constituting property acquired by any Loan Party after the Closing Date financed with Indebtedness secured by a Lien permitted by Section 8.2(a)(vi), (vi) constituting property held by an Unrestricted Subsidiary upon the designation of a Subsidiary of Holdings as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms hereof, (vii) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, automatically upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee Agreements hereunder or under any other Loan Document as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder, (viii) constituting a Deposit Account in respect of which a Loan Party has granted a Lien permitted under Section 8.2(a) upon receipt of a certificate by the applicable Loan Party delivered in accordance with Section 20 of the Security Agreement or (ix) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant documentation granting such Lien, (2) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 8.10 and required by the holder of, or pursuant to the terms of any agreement governing, the obligations secured by such Liens and (3) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the applicable Guarantee Agreement if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Requisite Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to this Section 11.10. In each case as specified in this Section 11.10, the Collateral Agent will (and each Lender (and each other Secured Party) irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to), at the Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreements, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 11.10.
(c) Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Loan Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent in this Section 11.10 or in any of the Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as Lenders and that Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the
Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).
(d) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if at any time an Initial Collateral Release Period shall have occurred and be continuing, then all Collateral (other than Collateral consisting of Capital Stock) shall be released automatically and the provisions in the Collateral Documents with respect to such Collateral shall be terminated without any further action. In connection with the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall, at Borrowers’ sole expense and at Borrowers’ Agent’s request, promptly (A) execute and file in the appropriate location and deliver to Borrowers’ Agent such termination and release statements or confirmation thereof, as applicable, and (B) do such other things as are reasonably necessary to release the Liens to be released pursuant hereto promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including after a Collateral Reinstatement Event shall have previously occurred), if at any time a Subsequent Collateral Release Period shall have occurred and be continuing, then all Collateral and the Collateral Documents shall be released automatically and the provisions in the Collateral Documents with respect to such Collateral shall be terminated without any further action. In connection with the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall, at Borrowers’ Agent’s sole expense and at Borrowers’ Agent’s request, promptly (A) return to Borrowers’ Agent all certificates and instruments evidencing Collateral consisting of Capital Stock, (B) execute and file in the appropriate location and deliver to Borrowers’ Agent such termination and full or partial release statements or confirmation thereof, as applicable, and (C) do such other things as are reasonably necessary to release the Liens to be released pursuant hereto promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release.
(iii) Notwithstanding clause (ii) above, if a Collateral Reinstatement Event shall have occurred, all Collateral consisting of Capital Stock and Collateral Documents to the extent related thereto shall, at Borrowers’ Agent’s sole cost and expense, be reinstated and all actions reasonably necessary, or reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to provide to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties valid, perfected, first priority security interests (subject to Liens permitted under Section 8.2) in such Collateral (including without limitation the delivery of applicable documentation and taking of applicable actions described in Section 7.9 to the extent applicable to such Collateral) shall be taken within sixty (60) days (or such longer period as agreed to by the Collateral Agent) after such Collateral Reinstatement Event.
(e) Any execution and delivery of documents by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 11.10 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.
11.11 Intercreditor Agreement. The Lenders hereby authorize, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders at the time of execution of such agreement or arrangement, Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into any intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement and any such intercreditor agreement is binding upon the Lenders; provided, that, the consent of the Requisite Lenders shall not be required for the execution of any acknowledgment or other document in connection with the Intercreditor Agreement.
11.12 Withholding Tax Indemnity. To the extent required by any applicable law, the applicable Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender or Issuing Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 4.7(a) or (c), each Lender and each Issuing Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify each
Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for Agent) incurred by or asserted against Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of Agent to properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or Issuing Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Lender or Issuing Lender failed to notify Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or Issuing Lender by the applicable Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby authorizes each Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Issuing Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due such Agent under this Section 11.12. The agreements in this Section 11.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For purposes of this Section 11.12, the term “Lender” shall include any Overdraft Provider.
11.13 Holders. Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with Administrative Agent.

(H) without the consent of the Requisite Lenders of the applicable Facility, waive any Scheduled Term Repayment under such Facility or amend the definition of Scheduled Term Repayments for such Facility in a manner that decreases or delays any Scheduled Term Repayment (except for technical amendments with respect to additional facilities, replacements loans or commitments, or maturity extensions pursuant to Sections 2.1, 2.10 and 2.15).
(b) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by clauses (a)(i) through (iv), inclusive, of the first proviso to the third sentence of Section 12.1(a) or (G) through (H) of the second proviso to such sentence, the consent of the Requisite Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then Borrowers shall have the right to replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders (or, at the option of Borrowers if the respective Lender’s consent is required with respect to less than all Loans, to replace only the respective Loans of the respective non-consenting Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s individual consent) with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 3.7 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed amendment, modification, supplement, waiver, discharge, termination or other change.
(c) In addition to the amendments effected pursuant to the foregoing Section 12.1(a), Schedule 1.1(c) may be amended as follows:

(ii) to remove any Subsidiary as an Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrower or an Additional Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, upon (A) execution and delivery by Company of a written request providing for such amendment and (B) repayment in full of all outstanding Loans and other Obligations of such Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrower or Additional Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the execution and delivery of all documentation required by Administrative Agent to be delivered pursuant to (x) Section 2.10 in connection with an Additional Facility, (y) Section 2.1(c) in connection with any Refinancing Term Loans and (z) Section 2.15 in connection with any Extension Series, this Agreement shall be deemed amended without further action by any Lender to reflect, as applicable, any new Lenders and technical and conforming amendments to reflect the terms of such Additional Facility, Refinancing Term Loan or Extension Series (as applicable) and (in the case of any Additional Facility) any documentation to evidence any Additional Incremental Rights.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Loan Parties, the Requisite Lenders and Administrative Agent (and, if their rights or obligations are affected thereby, each other Agent and each Issuing Lender) if (i) by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.
(f) A Revolving Lender may allocate any proportion of its Revolving Credit Commitment or Revolving Credit Exposure with respect to any waiver, amendment, modification, consent or any other action pursuant to this Section 12.1 or any other Loan Document in order to vote separate portions thereof differently with respect thereto.
(g) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of Administrative Agent, Company, Borrowers and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all Term Loans outstanding under one or more Term Facilities (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder which shall constitute Term Loans hereunder under a new Term Facility (“Replacement Term Loans”); provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and the final maturity date of such Replacement Term Loans shall be no earlier than the final maturity date of such Refinanced Term Loan and (c) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of any Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing. In addition, any Lender providing Replacement Term Loans shall become bound by the Re-Allocation Agreement in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders and Issuing Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into any amendments or supplements to the Re-Allocation Agreement as the Administrative Agent deem necessary or appropriate in order to give effect to the foregoing.
(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to amendments under Section 12.1(a) requiring the approval of all of the Lenders under the Revolving Facility adversely affected thereby, if all such Lenders other than one or more Defaulting Lenders approve such amendment, the failure of such Defaulting Lenders to approve such amendment shall not prevent such amendment from becoming effective with respect to such Lenders approving such amendment (it being understood that such amendment will not be effective with respect to such Defaulting Lenders that do not approve such amendment).
(i) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended with the written consent of Administrative Agent, Company and the Borrowers to make any changes to this Agreement or any other Loan Document deemed in the best interest of the Lenders, in consultation with counsel, in connection with the joinder or addition of any Borrower or Guarantor that was not a Loan Party on the Closing Date, including in connection with the creation or perfection of a security interest in any Collateral located in a jurisdiction under which Collateral was not secured or perfected in connection with the Closing Date under the Offshore Collateral Documents, upon delivery to Administrative Agent of (1) to the extent not previously delivered, the pledge and security agreements required pursuant to Section 7.9(c), (2) an opinion of counsel which covers such matters related to such agreements as Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine with such exceptions as are reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, and (3) such other documents with respect thereto as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.1, if Administrative Agent and Company shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error, defect or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then Administrative Agent and Company shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document.
(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.1, the Re-Allocation Agreement shall not be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented and/or otherwise modified in any manner that would be materially adverse to the Loan Parties without the prior written consent of the Borrowers’ Agent.

(b) Indemnification. Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx will indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and each Lender and each director, officer, employee, agent, attorney and Affiliate of each Agent and each Lender (each such Person an “Indemnified Person” and collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against all losses, claims, damages, or liabilities and related reasonable, documented and out-of-pocket expenses, including Attorney Costs, charges and disbursements to which such Indemnified Person may become subject or which may be asserted against such Indemnified Person by any third party or by any Loan Party, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, penalties, expenses or liabilities (or actions, suits or proceedings including any inquiry or investigation or claims in respect thereof (whether or not an Agent or any Lender is a party thereto)) arise out of, in any way relate to, or result from (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials into the Environment for which any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries has any liability or which is related to any property currently or formerly owned, leased, occupied or operated by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries, any Environmental Lien, any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries or any liability which occurs by a breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants relating to environmental matters contained herein or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether brought by a third party or by a Loan Party and regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, and to reimburse each Indemnified Person upon their demand, for any Attorney Costs or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or claim; provided, however,
(i) that no Indemnified Person shall have the right to be so indemnified hereunder for any loss, claim, damage, penalties, obligations, expense or liability to the extent it arises or results from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (y) any dispute solely between the Indemnified Persons other than claims against an Indemnified Person in its capacity in fulfilling its role as an Arranger, Documentation Agent, Senior Managing Agent or Agent under a Loan Document and other than any claims arising out of any act or omission by any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction); and
(ii) that nothing contained herein shall affect the express contractual obligations of the Lenders to any Loan Party contained herein or in the other Loan Documents.
For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 12.4(b) shall not apply to Taxes, except any Taxes that represent claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses arising from any non-Tax claim.
If any action, suit or proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against any Agent, any Lender or any other Person indemnified or intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 12.4, Company or the applicable Borrower will, if requested by any Agent, any Lender or any such Indemnified Person, resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Person or Persons indemnified or intended to be indemnified. Each Indemnified Person shall, unless an Agent, a Lender or other Indemnified Person has made the request described in the preceding sentence and such request has been complied with, have the right to employ its own counsel (or (but not as well as) staff counsel) to investigate and control the defense of any matter covered by such indemnity and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that in any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, the Loan Parties shall not be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel), which counsel shall be designated by Administrative Agent provided, further, however, each Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such inquiry, action, claim or proceeding and to control the defense thereof, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Loan Parties to the extent that (i) Company or any other Loan Party shall have agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses or (ii) such Indemnified Person shall have notified Company that it has been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the other Indemnified Persons and that such common representation would adversely impact the adequacy of the proposed representation.
Any and all amounts so expended by any Agent shall be repaid to it by the Loan Parties promptly upon such Agent’s demand therefor, with interest at the Default Rate in effect from time to time during the period including the date so expended by such Agent to the date of repayment. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Indemnified Person as set forth in this Section 12.4 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Loan Parties shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law, provided that OI Europe shall not be liable to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Indemnified Person, in whole or in part, for obligations of the other Loan Parties as a result of the exercise of remedies by the Agents and the Lenders under this Section 12.4 or otherwise. The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 12.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the Loan Party’s other Obligations hereunder.
(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto, no Indemnified Person, and no Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party, shall assert, and each hereby waive, any claim against any party hereto, Indemnified Person, or Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the extension of credit under any Domestic Overdraft Account or Offshore Overdraft Account, or, in each case, the use of the proceeds thereof (other than, in the case of a Loan Party or an Affiliate of a Loan Party, in respect of any such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnified Person to a third party, or which are included in a third party claim, and for out-of-pocket expenses related thereto).
(d) Foreign Exchange Indemnity. If any sum due from any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries under this Agreement or any order or judgment given or made in relation hereto has to be converted from the currency (the “first currency”) in which the same is payable hereunder or
under such order or judgment into another currency (the “second currency”) for the purpose of (i) making or filing a claim or proof against any Loan Party with any Governmental Authority or in any court or tribunal, or (ii) enforcing any order or judgment given or made in relation hereto, such Loan Party shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Persons to whom such sum is due from and against any loss actually suffered as a result of any discrepancy between (a) the rate of exchange used to convert the amount in question from the first currency into the second currency, and (b) the rate or rates of exchange at which such Person, acting in good faith in a commercially reasonable manner, purchased the first currency with the second currency after receipt of a sum paid to it in the second currency in satisfaction, in whole or in part, of any such order, judgment, claim or proof, provided that OI Europe shall not be liable to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Indemnified Person, in whole or in part, for obligations of the other Loan Parties as a result of the exercise of remedies by the Agents and the Lenders under this Section 12.4 or otherwise. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate obligation of each Loan Party distinct from its other obligations hereunder and shall survive the giving or making of any judgment or order in relation to all or any of such other obligations.
12.5 Confirmations. Each Borrower and each holder of any portion of the Obligations agrees from time to time, upon written request received by it from the other, to confirm to the other in writing (with a copy of each such confirmation to Administrative Agent) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loan or Loans and other Obligations then outstanding.
12.6 Adjustment; Setoff.
(a) If any lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 10.1(i) hereof, or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and collateral received by any other Lender in respect of such other Lender’s Loans or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall (i) notify Administrative Agent of that fact and (ii) purchase for cash at face value from the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each other applicable Lender; provided, however, that (x) if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest and (y) this Section 12.6(a) shall not apply to (1) any payment made by a Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (2) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof. Each Loan Party agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Loans may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of setoff) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.
(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender and its Affiliates shall have the right, without prior notice to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, any such notice being expressly waived by Company, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to setoff and apply against any Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, of Company or any Loan Party to such Lender, any amount owing from such Lender to Company or any of its Subsidiaries, at or at any time after, the happening of any of the above-mentioned events, and the aforesaid right of setoff may be exercised by such Lender against Company or any Loan Party or against any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, Receivers, administrator,
administrative Receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of Company or any Loan Party, or against anyone else claiming through or against, Company or any Loan Party or such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, Receivers, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of setoff shall not have been exercised by such Lender prior to the making, filing or issuance, or service upon such Lender of, or of notice of, any such petition, assignment for the benefit of creditors, appointment or application for the appointment of a Receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or issuance of execution, subpoena, order or warrant. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Company and Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. In the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13(a) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender, the Overdraft Providers and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.
(c) Company expressly agrees, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, that to the extent Company or any other Loan Party makes a payment or payments and such payment or payments, or any part thereof, are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or are required to be repaid to a trustee, Receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state, provincial or federal law, common law or equitable cause in any jurisdiction, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Indebtedness to the Lenders or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment or payments had not been made.
12.7 Execution in Counterparts; Electronic Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
12.8 Binding Effect; Assignment; Addition and Substitution of Lenders.
(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Company, U.S. Borrower, O-I Canada, ACI, OIEG, OI Europe, ACI NZ and each other Loan Party hereto, Administrative Agent, the Lenders, all future holders of the Notes and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, except pursuant to a transaction permitted under Section 8.7, none of Company, U.S. Borrower, O-I Canada, ACI, OIEG, OI Europe, ACI NZ or any other Loan Party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder or in connection herewith or any interest herein (voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders.
(b) Each Lender may at any time sell to any Person (other than a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person, or the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or other Affiliates) (“Participants”) participating interests in all or any portion of its Commitment and Loans or
participation in Letters of Credit or any other interest of such Lender hereunder (in respect of any Lender, its “Credit Exposure”). In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, and the Loan Parties and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Company, U.S. Borrower, ACI, OIEG, OI Europe, ACI NZ and each other Loan Party hereto agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, however, that such right of setoff vis-à-vis OI Europe shall only be exercised in connection with Loans drawn for its own account and shall be subject to the obligation of such Participant to share with the Lenders, and the Lenders agree to share with such Participant, as provided in Section 12.6. Company, U.S. Borrower, ACI, OIEG, OI Europe, ACI NZ and each other Loan Party hereto also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.6 and Section 4.7 (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections, including the requirements of Section 4.7(d)) with respect to its participation in the Loans outstanding from time to time, as if such Participant becomes a Lender on the date it acquired an interest pursuant to this Section 12.8(b); provided that a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment, under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 than the participating Lender would have been entitled to receive under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to a greater payment results from a change in any law after the sale of the participation takes place. Each Lender agrees that any agreement between such Lender and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict such Lender’s right to approve or agree to any amendment, restatement, supplement or other modification to, waiver of, or consent under, this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except to the extent that any of the foregoing would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such Participant is participating (it being understood that amending the definition of any Scheduled Term Repayment (other than any Term Loan Maturity Date), shall not constitute an extension of the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note) or extend the stated maturity of any Letter of Credit in which such Participant is participating beyond the Revolver Termination Date or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees on any such Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, representations, warranties, Events of Default or Unmatured Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any Participant if the Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) release Company as a Guarantor or release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Collateral Documents (other than any such release in accordance with Section 11.10(d) or as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) supporting the Loans and/or Letters of Credit hereunder in which such Participant is participating.
(c) Each Lender that sells a participation to a Participant pursuant to Section 12.8(b) shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and interest
amounts) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary in connection with a tax audit or other proceeding to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. This Section 12.8(c) shall be construed so that the participations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.
(d) Successor Offshore Overdraft Providers. Any Offshore Overdraft Provider may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the relevant Offshore Borrower, Borrowers’ Agent and Administrative Agent. Upon (i) any such notice of resignation, upon five days’ notice to Lenders and Administrative Agent, or (ii) an assignment by such Offshore Overdraft Provider of all of its Multicurrency Revolving Commitment, such Offshore Borrower shall have the right to appoint a Lender with Multicurrency Revolving Credit Exposure as successor Offshore Overdraft Provider with respect to the applicable Borrower; provided that such appointment shall be subject to the consent of Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Upon the acceptance of any such appointment as an Offshore Overdraft Provider hereunder by a successor Offshore Overdraft Provider, the relevant Offshore Borrower shall repay in full the relevant Offshore Overdraft Amount and all other amounts owing to the resigning Offshore Overdraft Provider under the relevant Offshore Overdraft Agreement, and such Borrower and the resigning Offshore Overdraft Provider shall terminate such Offshore Overdraft Agreement and the successor Offshore Overdraft Provider shall enter into a successor Offshore Overdraft Agreement.
(e) Subject to Sections 12.8(f) and 12.8(k) below, any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees, including an Affiliate thereof (each an “Assignee”), all or any part of its Credit Exposure pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided that any assignment of all or any portion of any Lender’s Credit Exposure to an Assignee other than an Affiliate of such Lender or another Lender, or in the case of a Lender that is a Fund, any Related Fund of any Lender (i) shall be an assignment of its Credit Exposure in an amount not less than $5,000,000 (or the Effective Amount thereof for any amounts denominated in Alternative Currency) for the Dollar Revolving Facility or Multicurrency Revolving Facility and $1,000,000 for the Term Facilities (treating any Fund and its Related Funds as a single Eligible Assignee) (or if less the entire amount of Lender’s Credit Exposure with respect to such Facility), and (ii) shall require the prior written consent of Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and, provided no Event of Default then exists and is continuing, Borrowers’ Agent (the consent of Borrowers’ Agent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed provided further, that it shall be reasonable for Borrowers’ Agent to withhold consent to an assignment or transfer, if the proposed assignment or transfer would lead to a breach of the Ten Non-Qualifying Bank Creditor Rule; provided that Borrowers’ Agent shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof); provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, any Lender may at any time assign all or any part of its Credit Exposure to any Affiliate of such Lender that is a Qualifying Bank or to any other Lender (or in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, to any Related Fund of such Lender that is a Qualifying Bank). In addition to the foregoing, the consent
of the applicable Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding). Upon execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement and the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500 (provided that no such fee shall be payable upon assignments by any Lender which is a Fund to one or more Related Funds and that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment) in immediately available funds to such Administrative Agent at its Payment Office in connection with each such assignment, written notice thereof by such transferor Lender to Administrative Agent and the recording by such Administrative Agent of such assignment and the resulting effect upon the Loans and Dollar Revolving Commitment or Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of the assigning Lender and the Assignee, the Assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would have if it were a Lender hereunder and the holder of the Obligations (provided that each Borrower, each other Loan Party hereto and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with the assignor Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to the Assignee until written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the applicable Borrower and Administrative Agent by the assignor Lender and the Assignee) and, if the Assignee has expressly assumed, for the benefit of any Borrower or any other Loan Party hereto, some or all of the transferor Lender’s obligations hereunder, such transferor Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment and assumption, and except as described above, no further consent or action by any Borrower, the Lenders or Administrative Agent shall be required. At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 12.8(e) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective Assignee shall provide to the applicable Borrowers and Administrative Agent the appropriate forms, certificates and information as provided in Section 4.7(d), if applicable. Each Assignee shall take such Credit Exposure subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to any request made, waiver or consent given or other action taken hereunder, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower of written notice of such transfer, by each previous holder of such Credit Exposure. Such Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement and Schedule 1.1(a) hereto (or, with respect to Term Loans, the Register), to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Assignee as a Lender and the resulting adjustment of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement, the Maximum Commitment, the determination of its Term Pro Rata Share or Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be (in each case, rounded to twelve decimal places), the Loans, any outstanding Letters of Credit and any new Notes, if requested, to be issued, at the applicable Borrower’s expense, to such Assignee, and no further consent or action by any Loan Party or the Lenders shall be required to effect such amendments. Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, the Issuing Lenders shall continue to have all rights and obligations thereof with respect to such Letters of Credit until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder. Each Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall require the applicable Assignee to acknowledge and agree that, upon the effectiveness of such assignment, such Assignee shall become bound by the Re-Allocation Agreement.
(f) No such assignment will be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause.
In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other
conditions hereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender, each Overdraft Provider and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Overdraft Amounts in accordance with its applicable Revolving Commitments. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.
(g) Company and each Borrower authorize each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning Company, such Borrower and any of their Subsidiaries which has been delivered to such Lender by Company or any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by Company or any Borrower in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of Company or any Borrower prior to entering into this Agreement, provided that, such Transferee or prospective Transferee agrees to treat any such information which is not public as confidential in accordance with the terms of Section 12.16 hereof.
(h) A Lender can and may only assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations to a Transferee if such Transferee is a Non-Public Lender.
(i) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to secure its obligations (including, without limitation, the Notes held by it), including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to any Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board, without notice to, or the consent of, any Loan Party, provided that, no such pledge or assignment of a security interest under this Section 12.8(i) shall release a Lender from any obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Notes or Loans to any holders of obligations owed or securities issued by such Lender including any to its trustee for or representative of such holders. No such pledge or assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder.
(j) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.8 to the contrary, any Farm Credit Lender that (i) has purchased a participation from any Lender that is a Farm Credit Lender in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 on or after the Closing Date, (ii) is, by written notice to the Borrowers’ Agent and Administrative Agent (a “Voting Participant Notification”), designated by the selling Lender as being entitled to be accorded the rights of a voting participant hereunder (any Farm Credit Lender so designated being called a “Voting Participant”) and (iii) receives the prior written consent of the Borrowers’ Agent and Administrative Agent to become a Voting Participant, shall be entitled to vote (and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall be correspondingly reduced), on a dollar for dollar basis, as if such Voting Participant were a Lender, on any matter requiring or allowing a Lender to provide or withhold its consent, or to otherwise vote on any proposed action, in each case, in lieu of the vote of the selling Lender; provided, however, that if such Voting Participant has at any time failed to fund any portion of its participation when required
to do so and notice of such failure has been delivered by the selling Lender to Administrative Agent, then until such time as all amounts of its participation required to have been funded have been funded and notice of such funding has been delivered by the selling Lender to Administrative Agent, such Voting Participant shall not be entitled to exercise its voting rights pursuant to the terms of this clause (j), and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall not be correspondingly reduced by the amount of such Voting Participant’s participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Farm Credit Lender designated as a Voting Participant on Schedule 12.8(j) shall be a Voting Participant without delivery of a Voting Participant Notification and without the prior written consent of the Borrowers’ Agent and Administrative Agent. To be effective, each Voting Participant Notification shall, with respect to any Voting Participant, (A) state the full name of such Voting Participant, as well as all contact information required of an assignee as set forth in Exhibit 12.8(d), (B) state the dollar (or equivalent) amount of the participation purchased and (C) include such other information as may be required by Administrative Agent. The selling Lender and the Voting Participant shall notify Administrative Agent and the Borrowers’ Agent within three (3) Business Days of any termination of, or reduction or increase in the amount of, such participation and shall promptly upon request of Administrative Agent update or confirm there has been no change in the information set forth in Schedule 12.8(j) or delivered in connection with any Voting Participant Notification. The Borrowers and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on information provided by a Lender identifying itself or its participant as a Farm Credit Lender without verification thereof and may also conclusively rely on the information set forth in Schedule 12.8(j), delivered in connection with any Voting Participant Notification or otherwise furnished pursuant to this clause (j) and, unless and until notified thereof in writing by the selling Lender, may assume that there have been no changes in the identity of Voting Participants, the dollar (or equivalent) amount of participations, the contact information of the participants or any other information furnished to the Borrowers or Administrative Agent pursuant to this clause (j). The voting rights hereunder are solely for the benefit of the Voting Participants and shall not inure to any assignee or participant of a Voting Participant.
(k) (A) No assignment or participation shall be made to, and no Additional Facilities, Refinancing Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans shall be provided by, any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person or the applicable effective date of the Additional Facility, Refinancing Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans, as the case may be (unless the applicable Borrower has consented to such assignment or to such Person providing such Additional Facility, Refinancing Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans (as applicable) in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation or providing such Additional Facility, Refinancing Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans (as applicable)). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee or Lender with respect to any Additional Facility, Refinancing Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans (as applicable) that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such assignee or Lender with respect to any Additional Facility Refinancing Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans (as applicable) shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (y) the execution by the applicable Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement or other applicable amendment with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment or participation or provision of any or Additional Facility, Refinancing Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans (as applicable) in violation of this clause (k)(A) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (A) shall apply.
(B) If any assignment or participation is made to, or any commitments under an Additional Facility or with respect to any Refinancing Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans is provided by, any Disqualified Institution without the applicable Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (A) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, such Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and Administrative Agent, (A) terminate the Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Commitment and/or (B) require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.
(C) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrower, Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any Debtor Relief Plan, each Disqualified Institution party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such Debtor Relief Plan, (2) if such Disqualified Institution does vote on such Debtor Relief Plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Bankruptcy Code), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such Debtor Relief Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Bankruptcy Code) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).
(D) Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrowers hereby expressly authorizes Administrative Agent, to post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by the Borrowers’ Agent and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) to each Lender requesting the same.

Each transferee of any Note shall take such Note subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to any request made, waiver or consent given or other action taken hereunder, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower of written notice of such transfer, by each previous holder of such Note, and, except as expressly otherwise provided in such transfer, Administrative Agent and Borrowers shall be entitled conclusively to assume that the transferee named in such notice shall hereafter be vested with all rights and powers under this Agreement with respect to the Pro Rata Share of the Loans of the Lender named as the payee of the Note which is the subject of such transfer.
12.12 Registry. Borrowers hereby designate Administrative Agent to serve as Borrowers’ non-fiduciary agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.12 to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitment from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount (and interest amounts) of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect any Loan Party’s obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such
Commitment and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitment and Loans shall be recorded by Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by such Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 12.8. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Loan Parties, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender any Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon, if requested by the assigning or transferor Lender or new Lender, one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount then owing to such assignor or transferor Lender shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender.
12.13 Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends, restates, supersedes, and replaces in its entirety the Existing Credit Agreement. Except as expressly provided hereunder, the Obligations (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) by the Borrowers under the Existing Credit Agreement continue without interruption under this Agreement and such Obligations (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a novation of the obligations outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby. Nothing express or implied in this Agreement shall be construed as a release or discharge of Borrowers under the Existing Credit Agreement. Any payment or performance of any Obligation under the Existing Credit Agreement or any Obligation described in this Agreement during any period prior to the Closing Date shall constitute payment or performance of such Obligation under this Agreement. Any usage under any “basket” set forth in any covenant or exception in the Existing Credit Agreement shall not be included in the determination of baskets under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement hereunder constitute a termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments for purposes of any Overdraft Agreement.
12.14 Headings. The Table of Contents and Article and Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.
12.15 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate when the Commitment of each Lender has terminated and all outstanding Loans and other Obligations (other than any obligations and liabilities under Other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable holder of such Other Permitted Credit Exposure shall have been made) and Loans have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit have expired or been terminated (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to each applicable Issuing Lender); provided, however, that the rights and remedies of each Agent and each Lender with respect to any representation and warranty made by any Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the indemnification and expense reimbursement provisions contained in this Agreement and any other Loan Document, shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
12.16 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Issuing Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below) in accordance with its customary practices and procedures for handling such
information and in a prudent fashion, except that information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or the enforcement or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (it being understood that the DQ List may be disclosed to any assignee or Participant, or prospective assignee or Participant, in reliance on this clause (f)) or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Company or any other Loan Party and its obligations, (g) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from any Agent or any Lender, (h) with the consent of Company, (i) to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Facilities or market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry and service providers to Administrative Agent in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, (j) to the extent such information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this section or (y) becomes available to any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Company or (k) to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrowers and their obligations hereunder. Nothing in this provision shall imply that any party has waived any privilege that it may have with respect to advice it has received.
For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Company or any of its Subsidiaries relating to Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Company or any of its Subsidiaries. In addition, Administrative Agent may disclose to any agency or organization that assigns standard identification numbers to loan facilities such basic information describing the facilities provided hereunder as is necessary to assign unique identifiers (and, if requested, supply a copy of this Agreement but not the Schedules hereto), it being understood that the Person to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of information and instructed to make available in the course of its business of assigning identification numbers.
12.17 Concerning the Collateral and the Loan Documents.
(a) Authority. Each Lender and each other Secured Party hereby irrevocably (for itself and its assignees, Participants and successors) authorizes Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to enter into the each Collateral Document on behalf of and for the benefit of that Lender or other Secured Party and its assignees, Participants and successors, and agrees to be bound by the terms of each Collateral Document. Unless expressly provided for in Section 12.1(i) and (j), each Lender and each other Secured Party irrevocably (for itself and its assignees, Participants and successors) agrees that Administrative Agent shall not enter into or consent to any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision contained in the Collateral Documents without the prior consent of the Requisite Lenders. Each Lender and each other Secured Party agrees
irrevocably (for itself and its assignees, Participants and successors) that it and its assignees, Participants and successors shall not have any right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties upon the terms of the Collateral Documents.
(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no provision of this Agreement shall render any Offshore Borrower liable for the Obligations of Company, Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx or any Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrower.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if a “secured creditor” (as that term is defined under the BIA) is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not to include a Person to whom obligations are owed on a joint or joint and several basis, then O-I Canada’s and any Canadian Guarantor’s Obligations, to the extent such Obligations are secured, only shall be several obligations and not joint or joint and several obligations.
(d) Each Lender and each other Secured Party agrees that any action taken by Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the express terms, hereof, a different proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions hereof or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by any Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where so required, such different proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders and each other Secured Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders and each other Secured Party with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with the Loan Documents relating to the Collateral; (ii) execute and deliver each Loan Document relating to the Collateral and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) act as collateral trustee for the Lenders and each other Secured Party for purposes stated therein to the extent such action is provided for under the Loan Documents, provided, however, Administrative Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs each Lender and each other Secured Party to act as collateral sub-agent for Administrative Agent and the Lenders for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens with respect to Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ respective deposit accounts maintained with, and cash and Cash Equivalents held by, such Lender and each other Secured Party; (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral; (v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and liens created or purported to be created by the Loan Documents, and (vi) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, exercise all remedies given to any Agent or the Lenders and each other Secured Party with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.
12.18 Dutch Parallel Debt
(a) For the purpose of ensuring the validity and enforceability of any Dutch Collateral Documents and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Collateral Agent (the “Dutch Parallel Debt”), as creditor in its own right and not as representative of the other Dutch Secured Parties, sums equal to and in the currency of each amount payable by the Offshore Borrowers under each of the Loan Documents as and when that amount falls due for payment under the relevant Loan Document.
(b) Any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to the Collateral Agent under this Section 12.18 shall be decreased to the extent that the Dutch Secured Parties have received (and are able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under the other provisions of the Loan Documents and any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to the Dutch Secured Parties under those provisions shall be decreased to the extent that the Collateral Agent has received (and is able to retain) payment of the Dutch Parallel Debt under this Section 12.18.
(c) The Collateral Agent shall have its own independent right to demand payment of the amounts payable by each Loan Party under this Section 12.18 and shall not act as not as agent, trustee or representative of any other Dutch Secured Party.
(d) The rights of the Dutch Secured Parties (other than the Collateral Agent) to receive payment of amounts payable by each Loan Party under the Loan Documents are several and are separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the rights of the Collateral Agent to receive payment under this Section 12.18.
(e) If the Collateral Agent resigns, each Loan Party shall execute such documents and take all such other action as is necessary or (in the opinion of the Collateral Agent) desirable in connection with the substitution, in accordance with applicable law, of the successor Collateral Agent as creditor of the Dutch Parallel Debt and as beneficiary of any Collateral securing the Dutch Parallel Debt.
(f) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any Loan Document, in relation to the Dutch Parallel Debt and any Dutch Collateral Document the rights, powers and authorities vested in the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents are subject to any restrictions imposed by mandatory Dutch law.
12.19 No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender, each Overdraft Provider, each Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other, in connection with the Loan Documents. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with the entry into the Loan Documents or the process leading thereto.
12.20 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and
(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
12.21 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the USA Patriot Act and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name, address and tax identification number of such Loan Party and other information regarding such Loan Party that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the USA Patriot Act. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act and is effective as to the Lenders and Administrative Agent.
ARTICLE XIII

Upon and after the occurrence of a Re-Allocation Event, all amounts from time to time accruing with respect to, and all amounts from time to time payable on account of, Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (including, without limitation, any interest and other amounts which were accrued but unpaid on the date of such Re-Allocation Event) and Unpaid Drawings owing in an Alternative Currency shall be payable in Dollars (taking the Dollar Equivalents of all such amounts on the date of the occurrence of the respective Re-Allocation Event, with all calculations for periods after the Re-Allocation Event being made as if the respective such Loan or Unpaid Drawing had originally been made in Dollars) and shall be distributed by Administrative Agent for the account of appropriate Lenders which made such Loans or are participating therein.
ARTICLE XIV
COMPANY GUARANTY
14.1 Guaranty. Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties the due and punctual payment of all Obligations of all Borrowers hereunder and any Other Permitted Credit Exposure, when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required payment, declaration, demand or otherwise (including amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code), and agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by Collateral Agent, Agents or Lenders or their Affiliates party to such Other Permitted Credit Exposure (each, a “Guarantied Party” and collectively, the “Guarantied Parties”) in enforcing or preserving any rights under this Guaranty (all such obligations collectively (excluding any Excluded Swap Obligations), the “Guarantied Obligations”); provided, that, in order to enjoy the benefit of the foregoing guaranty any such Lender or Affiliate thereof party to any such Other Permitted Credit Exposure shall execute and deliver to Collateral Agent, during such time as such Lender is a Lender under this Agreement, an acknowledgment to the Intercreditor Agreement agreeing to be bound thereby and acknowledged by Borrowers’ Agent. Any Lender or Affiliate thereof obtaining the benefit of the foregoing guaranty with respect to Other Permitted Credit Exposure shall remain a Guarantied Party hereunder with respect to such Other Permitted Credit Exposure only for so long as such Lender remains a Lender under this Agreement.
14.2 Waivers.
(a) Company agrees that the Guarantied Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that Company will remain bound upon this Guaranty notwithstanding any extension, renewal or other alteration of any Guarantied Obligation.
(b) Company waives presentation of, demand of, and protest of any Guarantied Obligation and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of Company under this Guaranty shall not be affected by:
(i) the failure of any Guarantied Party or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against Company, any Borrower or any Subsidiary under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document relating to Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any other agreement or otherwise.
(ii) any extension or renewal of any provision of any thereof,
(iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document relating to Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any instrument or agreement executed pursuant hereto or thereto,
(iv) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the security held by any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent, any other Agent or any other Person for any of the Guarantied Obligations, or
(v) the failure of any Guarantied Party or any other Person to exercise any right or remedy against any Borrower or any guarantor of any of the Guarantied Obligations.
(c) Company further agrees that this Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Guarantied Party or any other Person to any of the security held for payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Guarantied Party or any other Person in favor of a Borrower or any other Person.
(d) The obligations of Company under this Article XIV shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Guarantied Obligations, the discharge of any Borrower or any other guarantor from any of the Guarantied Obligations in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, or otherwise (including due to any expropriation, confiscation, nationalization or requisition by any Governmental Authority). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Company under this Article XIV shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent, any other Agent or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document relating to Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any hereof or thereof, by any default, or any other act or thing or event or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of Company or which would otherwise operate as a discharge of Company as a matter of law or equity.
(e) Company further agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of, interest on or any other amount with respect to any Guarantied Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent, any other Agent or any other Person upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Company, any other Person or otherwise.
14.3 Payment. Company further agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent, any other Agent or any other Person may have at law or in equity against Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Borrower or any other Loan Party to pay any of the Guarantied Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether by required prepayment, declaration or otherwise (including amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code), Company will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of Guarantied Parties, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of such Guarantied Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantied Obligations (including, without limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding with respect to any Borrower, would have
accrued on such Guarantied Obligations) and all other Guarantied Obligations then owed to Guarantied Parties as aforesaid. All such payments shall be applied promptly from time to time by Collateral Agent:
(a) First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of any collection or other realization under this Guaranty, including reasonable compensation to Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Collateral Agent in connection therewith;
(b) Second, (i) upon and during the effectiveness of the Intercreditor Agreement, to the payment of the Guarantied Obligations as provided in Section 3 of the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) except as set forth in clause (i), to the payment of the Guarantied Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof in accordance with Section 10.6; and
(c) Third, after payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations, to the payment to Company, or its successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such payments.
14.4 Waiver of Subrogation, Etc.
Company hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that it now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower or any of its other Subsidiaries or any of its assets in connection with this Article XIV or the performance by Company of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that Company now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower or Subsidiary thereof, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that Collateral Agent or any other Guarantied Party now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by Collateral Agent or any other Guarantied Party. In addition, until the Guarantied Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or any obligations and liabilities under Other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable holder of such Other Permitted Credit Exposure shall have been made) shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been terminated (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), Company shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution it may have against any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations as a result of any payment hereunder. Company further agrees that, to the extent the waiver of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any such rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification Company may have against any Borrower or any of its other Subsidiaries or against any collateral or security, and any such rights of contribution a guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have against any Borrower or other guarantor, to all right, title and interest Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to Company on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guarantied Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or any obligations and liabilities under Other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable holder of Other Permitted Credit Exposure shall have been made) shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Collateral Agent on behalf of Guarantied Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to
Collateral Agent for the benefit of Guarantied Parties to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.
Collateral Agent has been appointed to act on behalf of Guarantied Parties hereunder by Lenders for their benefit and, by their acceptance of the benefits hereof, the holders of any Other Lender Guarantied Obligations. Except as otherwise provided in the next succeeding paragraph, Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action, solely in accordance with this Guaranty and this Agreement; provided that, except as otherwise provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, Collateral Agent shall exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies hereunder in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, each holder of Other Lender Guarantied Obligations, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to enforce this Article XIV, it being understood and agreed by such holder that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties in accordance with the terms of this paragraph and that all decisions of the Requisite Lenders shall be binding on such holders.
Anything contained in this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding, upon and during the effectiveness of the Intercreditor Agreement no Guarantied Party shall be entitled to take any action whatsoever to enforce any term or provision of this Guaranty except through Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.
14.5 Termination. At such time as all Guarantied Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or any obligations and liabilities under Other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable holder of such Other Permitted Credit Exposure shall have been made) have been paid in full and all Commitments have terminated and all Letters of Credit have expired or have been terminated (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), the provisions of this Article XIV shall be of no further force and effect as to any Guarantied Obligations guaranteed hereby.
14.6 Security. The obligations of Company under this Article XIV are secured pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and the Security Agreement.
14.7 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by Company to honor all of its obligations under this Company Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 14.7 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 14.7, or otherwise under this Company Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until a repayment in full and termination of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 14.7 constitute, and this Section 14.7 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

FORM OF
DOMESTIC OVERDRAFT AGREEMENT
This DOMESTIC OVERDRAFT AGREEMENT is dated as of [·] and entered into by and between XXXXX-XXXXXXXX GLASS CONTAINER INC., a Delaware corporation, (“Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx”), and [·] (“Bank”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx and Bank are parties to that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Syndicated Facility Agreement dated as of June 27, 2018 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented and/or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx Glass Container Inc., a Delaware corporation, ACI Operations Pty Limited, ABN 94 004 230 326, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Australia, O-I European Group B.V., a private company with limited liability organized under the laws of the Netherlands with its registered offices (statutaire zetel) in Schiedam, the Netherlands and registered under number 24291478, OI Europe Sarl, a Swiss Société à responsabilité limitée (limited liability corporation), O-I Canada Corp., a Nova Scotia company, ACI Operations NZ Ltd., a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of New Zealand (each of the foregoing a “Borrower”), Xxxxx-Illinois Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Xxxxx-Illinois General Inc., a Delaware corporation, the Lenders and Issuing Lenders from time to time party thereto, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as Administrative Agent (“Administrative Agent”) for the Lenders and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as Collateral Agent. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to and subject to the limitations set forth in subsection 2.1(d) of the Credit Agreement, Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx and Bank are permitted to establish and maintain an overdraft facility to facilitate Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx’x cash management practices.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the terms and conditions stated herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Upon presentment to Bank for payment of an item drawn by Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx on its account (the “Domestic Overdraft Account”; such Domestic Overdraft Account is identified on Schedule 1 of this agreement attached hereto) with Bank in an amount that, when charged against the Domestic Overdraft Account, creates an overdraft in the Domestic Overdraft Account, Bank shall pay such item (subject to Section 2 hereof); provided, that, after giving effect to such overdraft (i) the Domestic Overdraft Amount shall not exceed $100,000,000, and (ii) the Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitments shall not equal less than zero.
2. Bank may elect not to pay any item that would create an overdraft, with or without notice to Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx, if Bank, in its sole discretion, believes in good faith that it will not be able, pursuant to subsection 2.1(d) of the Credit Agreement, to require each other Multicurrency Revolving Lender to make a Multicurrency Revolving Loan or to purchase a participation, in each case for the purpose of refunding Bank in the amount of such overdraft.
3. Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx shall pay to Bank on demand an amount equal to the Domestic Overdraft Amount then outstanding in respect of such overdraft. In addition, Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx shall pay, on demand or, if no demand is made, on the last Business Day of each month, interest on the Domestic
Overdraft Amount applicable to the Domestic Overdraft Account from time to time outstanding at a fluctuating rate per annum (calculated on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed) equal to [the Base Rate]; provided, that, if the Domestic Overdraft Amount or interest thereon is not paid when due, the Domestic Overdraft Amount and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest thereon not paid when due shall thereafter bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to [the Base Rate plus 2.00% per annum]; and provided, further, that, unless demand is otherwise made, the interest payable on the last Business Day of any month shall be that which is accrued and unpaid through such Business Day. Bank may, at its option, request Multicurrency Revolving Lenders to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans as provided in subsection 2.1(d) of the Credit Agreement and apply the proceeds of such Multicurrency Revolving Loans to effect payment of the Domestic Overdraft Amount as set forth above.
4. Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx shall make each payment hereunder to Bank in lawful money of the United States of America and in same day funds at the office of Bank located at [•].
5. Promptly after the last day of each month, Bank will prepare and send to Borrowers’ Agent (with a copy to Administrative Agent) copies of the statement of the Domestic Overdraft Account showing the charges made thereto and the Domestic Overdraft Amount relating thereto, and interest accrued thereon as of the last day of such month. Such statement, and any photocopies of items and other records held by Bank relating to the Domestic Overdraft Account, shall (absent manifest or demonstrable error) constitute evidence of the Indebtedness owed by Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx hereunder.
6. Without prejudice to Bank’s other rights, Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx hereby authorizes Bank to charge against any balance in the Domestic Overdraft Account and/or in any of Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx’x other accounts with Bank and/or against any other debt owing by Bank to Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx any amount owing by Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx to Bank hereunder; provided, that, Bank shall give Borrowers’ Agent notice of any such charge prior thereto or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.
7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Bank shall not be obligated to pay any item which would create an overdraft in the Domestic Overdraft Account if such payment would be an extension of credit to Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx in violation of any limitation or prohibition provided by any applicable statute or regulation.
8. This Agreement shall terminate upon the termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments. In addition, at any time prior to the termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, Bank or Borrowers’ Agent may, upon at least thirty (30) days written notice to the other party, terminate this Agreement; provided, that, no such termination shall affect Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx’x obligations with respect to overdrafts created on or prior to such termination or Bank’s rights with respect to such overdrafts. This Agreement is not for the benefit of any party other than Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx and Bank.
9. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
10. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts (including by fax or electronic PDF), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
11. Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx hereby submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the State of New York with respect to any action or proceeding in connection with this Agreement to the full extent provided in Section 12.9(a) of the Credit Agreement and Section 12.9(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by this reference.
12. The parties hereto agree to waive their respective rights to a jury trial with respect to any action or proceeding in connection with this Agreement to the full extent provided in subsection 12.9(c) of the Credit Agreement and Section 12.9(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by this reference.
13. [This Agreement supersedes and replaces in its entirety the Domestic Overdraft Agreement dated as of [·] between Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx and [·], as amended to date and any moneys outstanding on the Domestic Overdraft Account at the commencement of this Agreement are deemed to be drawn under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement.](1)

WHEREAS, it is contemplated that the Other Permitted Credit Exposure will inure to, in whole or in part, the benefit of Guarantor;
WHEREAS, Lenders have required that this Guaranty be executed and delivered by Guarantor pursuant to Section 5.1 of the Credit Agreement; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual payment of:
(i) all Loans made to, and all other Obligations of, the Offshore Borrowers, and
(ii) all Other Permitted Credit Exposure, in each case, whether at stated maturity, by required payment, declaration, demand or otherwise (including reasonable amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), and agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by Collateral Agent or Lenders in enforcing or preserving any rights under this Guaranty, in each case, excluding any Excluded Swap Obligations (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Guarantied Obligations”); provided, that, the guaranty hereunder and any other provisions of this Guaranty shall be effective as to any obligations in respect of any Other Permitted Credit Exposure, and such obligations shall be Guarantied Obligations hereunder, only if the holders of said obligations (or their representatives) shall have delivered to Collateral Agent an acknowledgment to the Intercreditor Agreement, duly executed by such holder or its representative and by Borrowers’ Agent together with evidence that any guaranty of such Other Permitted Credit Exposure by Holdings, if any, has been released in full. Certain such acknowledgments have previously been so executed, delivered and acknowledged with respect to the Other Permitted Credit Exposure described on Exhibit I attached to the Intercreditor Agreement which Exhibit shall be supplemented on the date hereof by delivery to the Collateral Agent of a supplement to such Exhibit which shall supersede and replace such Exhibit and thereafter such supplement shall constitute Exhibit I to the Intercreditor Agreement. Any Lender or Affiliate thereof obtaining the benefit of this Guaranty (including those listed on Exhibit I attached to the Intercreditor Agreement and supplemented on the date hereof) with respect to Other Permitted Credit Exposure shall remain a Guarantied Party hereunder with respect to such Other Permitted Credit Exposure only for so long as such Lender remains a Lender under the Credit Agreement.
Anything contained in this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Fraudulent Transfer Law (as hereinafter defined) is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be applicable to the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty, such obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of Guarantor in respect of intercompany indebtedness to Company or other affiliates of Company to the extent that such indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by Guarantor hereunder) and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of Guarantor pursuant to applicable law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement (including any such right of contribution hereunder).
Guarantor agrees that the Guarantied Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from Guarantor, and that Guarantor will remain bound upon this Guaranty notwithstanding any extension, renewal or other alteration of any Guarantied Obligation.
Guarantor waives presentation of, demand of, and protest of any Guarantied Obligation and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected by, and Guarantor hereby waives, all defenses that may now or hereafter arise from:
(a) the failure of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower or any other borrower under the provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any other agreement or otherwise,
(b) any extension or renewal of any provision of any Loan Document or any document relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any other agreement or otherwise,
(c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any document relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any instrument or agreement executed pursuant thereto, in each case in accordance with its terms,
(d) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the security held by any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person for any of the Guarantied Obligations, or
(e) the failure of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of any of the Guarantied Obligations.
Guarantor further agrees that this Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person to any of the security held for payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person in favor of Company or any other Person.
The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Guarantied Obligations, the discharge of any Borrower or any other borrower from any of the Guarantied Obligations in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, or any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of Guarantor or which would otherwise operate as a discharge of Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.
Guarantor further agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of, interest on or any other amount with respect to any Guarantied Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any
Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Company, Guarantor, any other Person or otherwise.
Guarantor further agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person may have at law or in equity against Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any obligor of any Guarantied Obligation to pay any of the Guarantied Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether by required prepayment, declaration or otherwise (including amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), Guarantor will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Guarantied Parties, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of such Guarantied Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantied Obligations (including, without limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding with respect to Company, would have accrued on such Guarantied Obligations) and all other Guarantied Obligations then owed to Guarantied Parties as aforesaid. All such payments shall be applied promptly from time to time by Collateral Agent:
First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of any collection or other realization under this Guaranty, including reasonable compensation to Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Collateral Agent in connection therewith;
Second, (i) upon and during the effectiveness of the Intercreditor Agreement, to the payment of the Guarantied Obligations as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) except as set forth in clause (i), to the payment of the Guarantied Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof; and
Third, after payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations, to the payment to Guarantor, its successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such payments.
Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that it now has or may hereafter have against Company or any Borrower or any of their respective assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company or any Borrower, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party now has or may hereafter have against Company or any Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party. In addition, until the Guarantied Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or any obligations and liabilities under Other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Hedge Bank, Lender or Affiliate of Lender shall have been made) shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been terminated (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution Guarantor may have against any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations (including without limitation any such right of contribution hereunder) as a result of any payment hereunder. Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for
any reason, any such rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification Guarantor may have against Company or any other Loan Party or against any collateral or security, and any such rights of contribution Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have against Company, to all right, title and interest Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guarantied Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Collateral Agent on behalf of Guarantied Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to Collateral Agent for the benefit of Guarantied Parties to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.
No delay or omission by any Guarantied Party or Collateral Agent to exercise any right under this Guaranty shall impair any such right, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver thereof. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, or consent to any departure by Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite Lenders under the Credit Agreement, and all decisions of Requisite Lenders shall be binding on all Guarantied Parties. No waiver of any single breach or default under this Guaranty shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default.
Anything contained in this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding, upon and during the effectiveness of the Intercreditor Agreement, no Guarantied Party shall be entitled to take any action whatsoever to enforce any term or provision of this Guaranty except through the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.
This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor and its respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Collateral Agent and Guarantied Parties and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party, the rights and privileges herein conferred upon Collateral Agent and Guarantied Parties shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions hereof.
Upon the liquidation of Guarantor, its obligations hereunder shall be assumed by its successors (including, without limitation, its stockholders on the date of such liquidation) except to the extent that any such assumption shall be prohibited by applicable law.
THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE UNDER, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.
ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST GUARANTOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY, OR ANY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN XXX XXXXX, XXXXXX XXX XXXX XX XXX XXXX. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, GUARANTOR, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY
(I) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS;
(II) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS;
(III) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO GUARANTOR AT THE ADDRESS OF BORROWERS’ AGENT PROVIDED IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT;
(IV) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (III) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER GUARANTOR IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT;
(V) AGREES THAT COLLATERAL AGENT RETAINS THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST GUARANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION; AND
(VI) AGREES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH RELATING TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE SHALL BE BINDING AND ENFORCEABLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION 5-1402 OR OTHERWISE.
Guarantor hereby agrees to waive its right to a jury trial with respect to any action or proceeding in connection with this Guaranty to the full extent provided in subsection 12.9 of the Credit Agreement and such subsection 12.9 of the Credit Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts (including by telecopy or electronic PDF), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original for all purposes; but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This Guaranty shall become effective as to Guarantor upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by Guarantor and receipt by Collateral Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof. At such time as all Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or any obligations and liabilities under Other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Hedge Bank shall have been made) have been paid in full and all Commitments have terminated and all Letters of Credit have expired or have been terminated (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), this Guaranty shall be of no further force and effect as to any Guarantied Obligations, including (without limitation) any Other Lender Guarantied Obligations guaranteed hereby and this Guaranty of Guarantor shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by Collateral Agent, any Guarantied Party or any other Person. At the request of Borrower’s Agent, Collateral Agent shall execute an acknowledgment thereof.
This Guaranty amends, restates, supersedes, and replaces in its entirety the Existing Guaranty. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a novation of the obligations outstanding under

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto (with the consent and at the direction of the Requisite Obligees pursuant to the Credit Agreement) agree that the Third Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

instruments related to any of the foregoing or necessary to perfect the security interests created thereunder and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, for the purpose of enforcing the Secured Parties’ rights in respect of the Domestic Collateral and the obligations of the Grantors under the Collateral Documents and obligations of the Loan Guarantors under the Loan Guaranties.
SECTION 2. Decisions Relating to Exercise of Remedies Vested in Requisite Obligees Under the Credit Agreement, Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents, Permitted Secured Debt Documents, Collateral Documents and Loan Guaranties.
(a) Collateral Agent agrees to make such demands and give such notices under the Loan Guaranties and the Collateral Documents as Requisite Obligees may request, and to take such action to enforce the Loan Guaranties and the Collateral Documents and to foreclose upon, collect and dispose of the Domestic Collateral or any portion thereof as may be directed by Requisite Obligees. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Requisite Obligees” means, for purposes of this Agreement, including directing Collateral Agent with respect to any of the foregoing actions to be taken pursuant to any of the Collateral Documents or the Loan Guaranties, Lenders holding 51% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the sum of (A) all Loans outstanding, (B) all other credit facilities utilized (including the stated amount of all Letters of Credit, the Domestic Overdraft Amount and the Offshore Overdraft Amounts and the face amount of all unmatured discounted bankers’ acceptances, if any) under the Credit Agreement and (C) all unused Commitments under the Credit Agreement, and (ii) if the Obligations (such term being used herein as defined in the Credit Agreement) have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Credit Agreement and all Letters of Credit have terminated, “Requisite Obligees” shall mean Secured Parties holding 51% or more of the aggregate amount of the sum of (A) the principal amount of the Other Permitted Credit Exposure then secured by Domestic Collateral (with the “principal amount” under Hedging Agreements relating to interest rate swaps or derivatives (such agreements, “Interest Rate Agreements”), Hedging Agreements relating to currency transactions (such agreements, “Currency Agreements”) and Commodities Agreements then secured by Domestic Collateral herein deemed to be 20% of the notional amount under the applicable Interest Rate Agreements, Currency Agreements and Commodities Agreements or, if an Interest Rate Agreement, Currency Agreement or Commodities Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, the amount then due and payable (exclusive of expenses and similar payments but including any early termination payments then due) under such Interest Rate Agreement, Currency Agreement or Commodities Agreement, as the case may be) and (B) in the case of the Collateral Documents only (and not the Loan Guaranties) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Permitted Secured Debt (to the extent such Permitted Secured Debt is then secured by the Domestic Collateral under the Collateral Documents), provided, that, the aggregate principal amount of any Specified New Senior Debt shall not be included in such calculation with respect to any direction to Collateral Agent solely to the extent such direction relates to any Excluded
Collateral (as defined in the relevant acknowledge hereto), until indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Other Permitted Credit Exposure secured by the Domestic Collateral and all Permitted Secured Debt secured by the Domestic Collateral under the Collateral Documents. Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that is, in its opinion, contrary to law or to the terms of this Agreement, or any of the Collateral Documents or any of the Loan Guaranties or which would in its opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to liability, and Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action under this Agreement or any of the Collateral Documents or any of the Loan Guaranties, unless and until Collateral Agent shall be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Secured Parties against any and all losses, costs, expenses or liabilities in connection therewith.
(b) Each Secured Party executing this Agreement (or that has executed a Predecessor Intercreditor Agreement) agrees that (i) Collateral Agent may act as Requisite Obligees may request (regardless of whether any Secured Party or any holder represented thereby agrees, disagrees or abstains with respect to such request), (ii) Collateral Agent shall have no liability for acting in accordance with such request (provided such action does not conflict with the express terms of this Agreement) and (iii) no Secured Party or any holder represented thereby shall have any liability to any other Secured Party or any holder represented thereby for any such request. Collateral Agent shall give prompt notice to all Secured Parties of actions taken pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Obligees; provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice shall not impair the right of Collateral Agent to take any such action or the validity or enforceability under this Agreement or the applicable Collateral Document or Loan Guaranties of the action so taken.
(c) Each Secured Party agrees that unless and until such Secured Party is entitled to give direction to Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 2(a) with respect to a Collateral Document or the Loan Guaranties, the only right of such Secured Party under the Collateral Documents and the Loan Guaranties is for Other Permitted Credit Exposure and the Permitted Secured Debt (collectively, with the Obligations under the Credit Agreement and all Loan Guaranties with respect to Other Permitted Credit Exposure, the “Senior Secured Obligations”) to be secured by the Domestic Collateral as provided in the Collateral Documents, and to receive a share of the proceeds of such Domestic Collateral or any payments under the Loan Guaranties, if any, as and when provided in the Collateral Documents and Section 3 and Section 4(a) hereof. The Permitted Secured Debt Representatives acknowledge that they have no rights or remedies under or with respect to any of the Loan Guaranties.
(d) Collateral Agent may at any time request directions from the Requisite Obligees with respect to the Collateral Documents and the Loan Guaranties as to any course of action or other matter relating hereto or to any Collateral Document or any Loan Guaranties.
Except as otherwise provided in the Collateral Documents and the Loan Guaranties, directions given by Requisite Obligees to Collateral Agent hereunder shall be binding on all Secured Parties for all purposes.
(e) Subject to the application of proceeds pursuant to Section 3 or Section 4, as applicable, Collateral Agent may release the Liens created under the Collateral Documents against any portion of the Domestic Collateral that is the subject of a sale, transfer or other disposition permitted by the Credit Agreement (other than to another Grantor), made in connection with Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies under the Collateral Documents, to the extent permitted by Section 11.10 of the Credit Agreement or otherwise to the extent approved by the Requisite Obligees or such greater number of Lenders as may be required under the Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, against any portion of the Domestic Collateral pledged by Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx or a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Security Agreement upon the sale, transfer or other disposition (other than to another Grantor) of all of the Capital Stock of and intercompany indebtedness owing by or to Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx or such Subsidiary Guarantor or the direct or indirect parent thereof as permitted by the Credit Agreement or in connection with Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies under the Collateral Documents. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Collateral Documents, upon release of a guarantor of any Permitted Secured Debt, the Liens created under the Collateral Documents against any assets or property of that guarantor shall no longer secure such Permitted Secured Debt.
(f) Each Secured Party agrees that no Secured Party shall have any right to, and agrees that it shall not take any action whatsoever to enforce any term or provision of any Collateral Document or any Loan Guaranties or to enforce any of its rights in respect of the Domestic Collateral, it being understood that all rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents and the Loan Guaranties shall be executed exclusively by Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

Any Loan Guaranty Payments received by Collateral Agent relating to the Obligations and the Other Permitted Credit Exposure (“Guarantied Obligations”) shall be applied so that each Secured Party with respect thereto shall receive payment of the same proportionate amount of all such Guarantied Obligations.
(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 4 which shall govern with respect to the allocation of Net Asset Sale Proceeds of Domestic Collateral or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds arising therefrom, any Proceeds received by Collateral Agent to be distributed under Section 3(a) to payment of the Senior Secured Obligations shall be applied so that each Secured Party with respect thereto that is then secured by the Domestic Collateral giving rise to such Proceeds shall receive payment of the same proportionate amount of all such Senior Secured Obligations.

Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to any Secured Party for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents or any other documents evidencing or relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure, the Permitted Secured Debt Documents, the Collateral Documents or the Loan Guaranties (collectively, the “Financing Agreements”) or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, any of the Financing Agreements, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any of the Financing Agreements or any other document referred to or provided for therein or any Lien created under the Collateral Documents or the perfection or priority of any such Lien or for any failure by any Loan Party to perform any of its respective obligations under any of the Financing Agreements. Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in- fact selected by it with reasonable care. Neither Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment).
(b) Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telex, telecopy, telegram, cable or other electronic transmission) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings), independent accountants and other experts selected by Collateral Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions signed by Requisite Obligees, and such instructions of Requisite Obligees, and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto, shall be binding on all of the Secured Parties.
(c) The Lender Agent on behalf of the Lenders and each Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder (collectively, the “Paying Indemnifying Parties”) agrees that the Secured Parties represented by it shall indemnify Collateral Agent, ratably in accordance with the amount of the obligations held by such Secured Parties secured by the Collateral Documents, to the extent neither reimbursed by any Grantor under the Credit Agreement or any Collateral Document nor reimbursed out of any Proceeds pursuant to Section 3 hereof and the corresponding provisions of the Collateral Documents for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,

(e) Collateral Agent may deem and treat the payee of any promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness relating to the Senior Secured Obligations as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to Collateral Agent, shall have been filed with Collateral Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of any such note or other evidence of indebtedness shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such note or other evidence of indebtedness and of any note or notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued in exchange therefor.

thereof to the Secured Parties (such resignation to take effect as hereinafter provided). In the event of such resignation of Collateral Agent, Requisite Obligees shall thereupon have the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no successor Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by Requisite Obligees and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the notice of the intent of Collateral Agent to resign, then the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the other Secured Parties, appoint a successor Collateral Agent. Any successor Collateral Agent appointed pursuant to this clause (i) (A) shall be commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 and (B) unless an Event of Default or condition or event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default if that condition or event were not cured or removed within any applicable grace or cure period (a “Potential Event of Default”) shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be approved by Company.
(ii) Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 7 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Collateral Agent.
(iii) In no event shall Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be liable or responsible for any funds or investments of funds held by any Grantor or any affiliates thereof.
SECTION 8. Miscellaneous.
(a) All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing (including by telecopy or electronic PDF) and may be personally served, telecopied or sent by United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person, upon receipt of telecopy or other electronic transmission on four Business Days after deposit in the United States mail, registered or certified, with postage prepaid and properly addressed.

(b) This Agreement may be modified or waived only by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by Collateral Agent and the Lender Agent with the written consent of Requisite Obligees, except that any modification or waiver adversely affecting a Secured Party’s rights under Sections 3 or 4 hereof shall require the written consent of such Secured Party;
provided, however that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the written consent of the Secured Parties shall not be required with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers necessary to permit the incurrence of additional Indebtedness secured by the Domestic Collateral and entitled to the benefits of the Pledge Agreement and/or the Security Agreement insofar as the foregoing is not prohibited by the Financing Agreements benefiting such Secured Party, including for the purposes of providing any successor or replacement credit agreement or bank facility with substantially the same or similar benefits, rights and priorities hereunder as the Credit Agreement, and including without limitation any amendments, modifications or waivers for the purpose of adding appropriate references to additional parties in, and according such parties the benefits of, any of the provisions hereof in connection with the incurrence of such Indebtedness.
(c) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Collateral Agent, each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns.
(d) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by telecopy or electronic PDF), all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.
(e) This amendment and restatement of the Third Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement shall become effective as to the Lenders, the Lender Agent and Collateral Agent upon the execution of this Agreement by the Lender Agent and Collateral Agent and the delivery of each such Person’s counterparts to Collateral Agent. Under Section 9(b) of the Third Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement, the Third Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement may be amended as set forth herein with the consent of Requisite Obligees without the consent of any of the other Secured Parties, and accordingly, upon such execution by Lender Agent and Collateral Agent, this Agreement shall become effective as to each holder of Other Permitted Credit Exposure listed on Exhibit B attached hereto (each of which has heretofore executed and delivered to Collateral Agent an acknowledgment to one or more Predecessor Intercreditor Agreements that was acknowledged by Borrowers’ Agent). This Agreement shall become effective as to each future Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder and each future Permitted Secured Debt Representative, respectively, upon the execution of an acknowledgment by any such Person or its representative as contemplated by Section 6 and delivery of such executed acknowledgment (which to be effective shall also be acknowledged by the Borrowers’ Agent) to Collateral Agent.
(f) Collateral Agent or an Affiliate thereof shall at all times be the same Person that is Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement (for so long as the Credit Agreement exists). Written notice of resignation by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 11.6 of the
Credit Agreement shall also constitute notice of resignation as Collateral Agent under this Agreement and each of the Collateral Documents; and appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 11.6 of the Credit Agreement shall also constitute appointment of a successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and each of the Collateral Documents unless Administrative Agent designates an Affiliate for such role, in which case, such appointment of Administrative Agent shall constitute appointment of such Affiliate as Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent under subsection 11.6 of the Credit Agreement by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent or its designated Affiliate shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder or under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and each of the Collateral Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was Collateral Agent hereunder.
(g) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT) BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
(h) Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, each party to this Agreement shall no longer be a party from and after such time as all of the obligations owing such party (including, without limitation, any asserted indemnification obligations) and secured by any of the Collateral Documents or guaranteed by any of the Loan Guaranties, or the instruments representing the same, shall have ceased to be outstanding by virtue of the payment in full in cash thereof or the cancellation thereof or delivery for cancellation thereof in accordance with their terms.

Lower case terms used in this Section 1 that are defined in Articles 8 or 9 of the UCC shall have the meaning set forth in the UCC, and all capitalized terms used in this Section 1 that are defined in Article 8 or 9 of the UCC and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the UCC, it being the intention of the Grantors that the description of the Collateral set forth above be construed to include the broadest possible range of assets, except for assets expressly excluded as set forth above.
SECTION 2. Security for Obligations.
Subject to the limited exclusion set forth below with respect to any Specified New Senior Debt, this Agreement secures, and the Collateral assigned by each Grantor is collateral security for, the prompt payment or performance in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including without limitation the payment of amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code), of all Secured Obligations of such Grantor, provided that, Excluded Collateral (as defined in the relevant acknowledgement relating to the issuance of any Specified New Senior Debt), if any, shall not be security for or be assigned or pledged on account of any Specified New Senior Debt and such Excluded Collateral shall not be held by Collateral Agent for the benefit of any holder thereof or any Permitted Secured Debt Representative with respect thereto. “Secured Obligations” means:
(a) all obligations and liabilities of every nature of:
(i) Company, now or hereafter existing under or arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and all obligations of Company under any Permitted Secured Debt Documents;
(ii) Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx, now or hereafter existing under or arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Domestic Borrowers’ Guaranty and all obligations of Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxx under any Permitted Secured Debt Documents;
(iii) each Subsidiary Guarantor, now or hereafter existing under or arising out of or in connection with the Subsidiary Guaranty and all obligations of each such Subsidiary Guarantor under any Permitted Secured Debt Documents; and
(iv) Company and each Restricted Subsidiary of Company, now or hereafter existing under or arising out of or in connection with Other Permitted Credit Exposure and each Other Permitted Credit Exposure Document in each case held by any Lender or Affiliate of any Lender;
in each case whether for principal, premium or interest (including, without limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding with respect to a Grantor, would accrue on such obligations), payments for early termination, payments for settlement of amounts due under any such agreements, fees, indemnities, expenses or otherwise, whether voluntary or involuntary, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, whether or not jointly owed with others, and whether or not from time to time decreased or extinguished and later increased, created or incurred, and all or any portion of such obligations or liabilities that are paid, to the extent all or any part of such payment is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from a Secured Party, any Lender or Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and all obligations of every nature of Grantors now or hereafter existing under this Agreement; provided, however, that the pledge made and security interest granted in Section 1 and any other provisions of this Agreement shall be effective as to any obligations in respect of any Permitted Secured Debt or Other Lender Guarantied Obligations only if the holders of such obligations or their representatives (A) shall have executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent prior to the date hereof an acknowledgment to an Applicable Intercreditor Agreement or, from and after the date hereof the Intercreditor Agreement and the Borrowers’ Agent has duly executed and delivered an acknowledgment to such acknowledgment and (B) in the case of Other Lender Guarantied Obligations shall have released, in form and substance satisfactory to Collateral Agent and Borrowers’ Agent, Holdings from any pre-existing guaranty obligations in connection with such Other Lender Guaranteed Obligations. The foregoing requirements have been met as of the date hereof with respect to the Other Lender Guarantied Obligations described on Exhibit I to the Intercreditor Agreement, and all such obligations are and continue to be secured hereunder. For purposes of determining the amount of Secured Obligations relating to any obligation with respect to which a Person other than a Grantor is the direct or primary obligor and with respect to which a Grantor is a guarantor (including by way of providing security), the total amount of such Secured Obligations shall be calculated without duplication of the amount of such direct or primary obligation secured by the Collateral and the related guaranty obligations of the Grantor secured by the Collateral.
SECTION 3. Grantors Remain Liable.
Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under any contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, to the extent set forth therein, to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by Collateral Agent of any of its rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, and (c) neither Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contracts, licenses, and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder, except to the extent Collateral Agent or Secured Party expressly assumes any obligations thereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor will: (i) execute or authorize and cause to be filed such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, agreements establishing that Collateral

Each Grantor hereby authorizes Collateral Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement and agrees that all Pledged Shares or Pledged Debt of such Grantor listed on any Pledge Amendment shall for all purposes hereunder be considered Collateral of such Grantor; provided, the failure of any Grantor to execute a Pledge Amendment with respect to any additional Pledged Shares or Pledged Debt pledged pursuant to this Agreement shall not impair the security interest of the Secured Parties therein or otherwise adversely affect the rights and remedies of Collateral Agent hereunder with respect thereto.

Each Grantor shall (i) except for any merger or consolidation which constitutes a sale, transfer or other disposition permitted by the Credit Agreement where the Credit Agreement does not require the pledge of the capital stock or other equity interests of the surviving or resulting corporation, pledge hereunder all the outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of the surviving or resulting person in any merger or consolidation involving securities pledged hereunder, (ii) cause each issuer of Pledged Shares not to issue any stock, other equity interests or other securities in addition to or in substitution for the Pledged Shares issued by such issuer, except to such Grantor or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement; (iii) pledge hereunder, in accordance with Section 5.1 or Section 7.9 of the Credit Agreement, any and all additional shares of stock, other equity interests or other securities of each issuer of Pledged Shares; (iv) pledge hereunder, promptly upon its acquisition (directly or indirectly) thereof, any and all shares of stock or other equity interests of any Person that, after the date of this Agreement, becomes, as a result of any occurrence, a direct Subsidiary of such Grantor, to the extent required by Section 5.1 or Section 7.9 of the Credit Agreement; (v) pledge hereunder, promptly upon their issuance, any and all instruments or other evidences of additional indebtedness from time to time owed to such Grantor by any obligor on the Pledged Debt; (vi) pledge hereunder, promptly upon their issuance, any and all instruments or other evidences of indebtedness which constitute Pledged Debt from time to time owed to such Grantor by any Person that after the date of this Agreement becomes, as a result of any occurrence, a direct or indirect Subsidiary of such Grantor; provided, that the foregoing covenant shall exclude any such instruments or evidences of indebtedness issued by any of the Harbor Capital Companies or any such instruments or evidences of indebtedness required to be pledged under the Pledge Agreement; (vii) promptly deliver to Collateral Agent all material written notices received by it with respect to the Securities Collateral; and (viii) at the request of Collateral Agent, promptly execute and deliver to Collateral Agent an agreement providing for the control, as that term is defined in the UCC, by Collateral Agent of all securities entitlements and securities accounts of such Grantor not otherwise subject to Permitted Encumbrances and provided that no other enforceable restrictions exist on the pledging or the hypothecation thereof.
(c) Voting and Distributions. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and prior to receipt of written notice from Collateral Agent:
(i) each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Securities Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that neither (i) the voting by a Grantor of any Pledged Shares for, or a Grantor’s consent to, the election of directors at a regularly scheduled annual or other meeting of stockholders or with respect to incidental matters at any such meeting nor (ii) a Grantor’s consent to or approval of any action otherwise permitted under this Agreement and the Credit Agreement shall be deemed inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, impairing in any material manner the Pledged Shares or the material rights of any of the Secured Parties), within the meaning of this Section 9(c).
(ii) each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain, and to utilize free and clear of the lien of this Agreement, any and all dividends, other distributions and interest paid in respect of the Securities Collateral; provided, that, any and all (A) dividends, distributions and interest paid or payable other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Securities Collateral, and (B) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect of any Securities Collateral in connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in-surplus, shall forthwith be delivered to Collateral Agent to hold as, Securities Collateral and shall, if received by such Grantor, be received in trust for the benefit of Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of such Grantor and be forthwith delivered to Collateral Agent as Securities Collateral in the same form as so received (with all necessary endorsements).
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (x) upon written notice from Collateral Agent to any Grantor, all rights of such Grantor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Collateral Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights during the continuation of such Event of Default; (y) all rights of such Grantor to receive the dividends, other distributions and interest payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant hereto shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Collateral Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Securities Collateral such dividends, other distributions and interest payments during the continuation of such Event of Default, provided that nothing herein shall restrict or limit the right of a Grantor to directly or indirectly make or receive dividends, distributions, principal or interest payments for the purpose of making such amounts available to Company to make Holdings Ordinary Course Payments permitted to be paid pursuant to Section 8.5 of the Credit Agreement; and (z) all dividends, principal, interest payments and other distributions which are received by such Grantor contrary to the provisions of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding paragraph or clause (y) above shall be received in trust for the benefit of Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall forthwith be paid over to Collateral Agent as Securities Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsements).
In order to permit Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive hereunder, (I) upon the occurrence and during the existence of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to Collateral Agent all such proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request, and (II) without limiting the effect of clause (I) above, each Grantor hereby grants to Collateral Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote the Pledged Shares and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of the Pledged Shares would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents of shareholders or other holders of equity interests, calling special meetings of shareholders or other holders of equity interests and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of any Pledged Shares on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any other Person (including the issuer of the Pledged Shares or any officer or agent thereof), upon the occurrence and during the existence of an Event of Default and which proxy shall only terminate upon (i) the
payment in full of the Secured Obligations and the termination of the related agreements and the cancellation of any outstanding Letters of Credit or (ii) the cure of the Event of Default.
SECTION 10. Special Covenants With Respect to the Intellectual Property Collateral.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10, each Grantor shall continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of the Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof. In connection with such collections, each Grantor may take (and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default at Collateral Agent’s reasonable direction, shall take) such action as such Grantor or Collateral Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to enforce collection of such amounts; provided, Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and upon written notice to such Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify the obligors with respect to any such amounts of the existence of the security interest created hereby and to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to Collateral Agent, and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done. After receipt by any Grantor of the notice from Collateral Agent referred to in the proviso to the preceding sentence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, (i) all amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by each Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Grantor in respect of the Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied as provided by Section 18, and (ii) such Grantor shall not, without the consent of the Collateral Agent, adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon.
(b) In addition to, and not by way of limitation of, the granting of a security interest in the Collateral pursuant hereto, each Grantor, effective upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default (but only to the extent to do so would not breach a contract binding on such Grantor), hereby grants to Collateral Agent an irrevocable (during the term of this Agreement), nonexclusive right and license to use, license and sublicense all of the Intellectual Property Collateral (including, without limitation, all Trademarks and Trademark Rights, Copyrights, Patents and technical processes owned or used by such Grantor that relate to the Collateral) and any other collateral granted by such Grantor as security for the Secured Obligations, together with any goodwill associated therewith, all to the extent necessary to enable Collateral Agent to realize on the Collateral in accordance with this Agreement and to enable any transferee or assignee of the Collateral to enjoy the benefits of the Collateral. This right shall inure to the benefit of all successors, assigns and transferees of Collateral Agent and its successors, assigns and transferees, whether by voluntary conveyance, operation of law, assignment, transfer, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise. Such right and license shall be granted free of charge, without requirement that any monetary payment whatsoever be made to such Grantor. If and to the extent that any Grantor licenses the Intellectual Property Collateral, upon such Grantor’s request and provided no Event of Default then exists, Collateral Agent shall promptly enter into a non-disturbance agreement or other similar arrangement, at such Grantor’s request and expense, with such Grantor and any licensee of any Intellectual Property Collateral permitted hereunder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent pursuant to which (i) Collateral Agent shall agree not to disturb or interfere with such licensee’s rights under its license agreement with such Grantor so long as such
licensee is not in default thereunder, and (ii) such licensee shall acknowledge and agree that the Intellectual Property Collateral licensed to it is subject to the security interest created hereunder in favor of Collateral Agent and the other terms of this Agreement.
SECTION 11. Omitted.
SECTION 12. Collateral Account.
Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to establish and maintain at its office at 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, a blocked account in the name of the Grantors and under the sole dominion and control of Collateral Agent and such blocked account will be a restricted deposit account designated “OI L/C Collateral Account”. The “OI L/C Collateral Account” is referred to herein as the “L/C Collateral Account”. All amounts at any time held in the L/C Collateral Account shall be beneficially owned by Grantors but shall be held in the name of Collateral Agent hereunder, for the benefit of Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement. Grantors shall have no right to withdraw, transfer or, except as expressly set forth herein, otherwise receive any funds deposited into the L/C Collateral Account. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the L/C Collateral Account shall be subject to such applicable laws, and such applicable regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and of any other appropriate banking or Governmental Authority, as may now or hereafter be in effect. All deposits of funds in the L/C Collateral Account shall be made by wire transfer (or, if applicable, by intra-bank transfer from another account of a Grantor) of immediately available funds, in each case addressed in accordance with instructions of Collateral Agent. Each Grantor shall, promptly after initiating a transfer of funds to the L/C Collateral Account, give notice to Collateral Agent by telefacsimile of the date, amount and method of delivery of such deposit. Cash held by Collateral Agent in the L/C Collateral Account shall not be invested by Collateral Agent but instead shall be maintained as a cash deposit in the L/C Collateral Account pending application thereof as elsewhere provided in this Agreement. To the extent permitted under Regulation Q of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, any cash held in the L/C Collateral Account shall bear interest at the standard rate paid by Collateral Agent to its customers generally for deposits of like amounts and terms. Subject to Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder, any interest earned on deposits of cash in the L/C Collateral Account shall be deposited directly in, and held in the L/C Collateral Account.
SECTION 13. Secured Party Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.
Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Collateral Agent as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, Collateral Agent or otherwise, from time to time in Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including without limitation:
(a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Grantor or paid to Collateral Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement;
(b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to ask for, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;
(c) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clauses (a) and (b) above;
(d) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral;
(e) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than Liens permitted under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement) levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, any such payments made by Collateral Agent to become obligations of such Grantor to Collateral Agent, due and payable immediately without demand;
(f) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with Accounts and other documents relating to the Collateral; and
(g) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Collateral Agent’s option and Grantors’ expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and Collateral Agent’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.
SECTION 14. Collateral Agent May Perform.
If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Grantors under Section 19(b).
SECTION 15. Standard of Care.
The powers conferred on Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Collateral Agent accords its own property.
SECTION 16. Remedies.
(a) Generally. If (i) any “Event of Default” under and as defined in the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, or (ii) after such time as all Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, and provided, that, the Collateral then secures the payment and performance of any obligations under any Permitted Secured Debt Documents or any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents, if any event of default under (A) any obligations under any Permitted Secured Debt Documents which are secured by Collateral, or (B) any obligations under any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents which are secured by Collateral, as the case may be (either such occurrence being an “Event of Default” for purposes of this Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing, Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and also may (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble such of the Collateral as may reasonably be assembled as directed by Collateral Agent and make it available to Collateral Agent at a place or places to be designated by Collateral Agent and reasonably convenient to both parties, (ii) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process, (iii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent Collateral Agent deems appropriate, (iv) take possession of any Grantor’s premises or place custodians in exclusive control thereof, remain on such premises and use the same and any of such Grantor’s equipment for the purpose of completing any work in process, taking any actions described in the preceding clause (iii) and collecting any Secured Obligation, (v) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable, (vi) exercise dominion and control over and refuse to permit further withdrawals from any Deposit Account maintained with Collateral Agent or any Lender constituting a part of the Collateral and (vii) without notice to any Grantor, transfer to or to register in the name of Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Securities Collateral. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party other than the Collateral Agent may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale but no Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent on behalf of Secured Parties) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such Person as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Collateral payable by such Person at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. Each Grantor further agrees
that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 16 will cause irreparable injury to Collateral Agent, that Collateral Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 16 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred or is continuing giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities.
(b) Securities Collateral. Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Securities Collateral under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Securities Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, each Grantor agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Pledged Shares to be sold hereunder from time to time to furnish to Collateral Agent all such information as Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the number of shares and other instruments included in the Securities Collateral which may be sold by Collateral Agent in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.
(c) L/C Collateral Account. (i) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in accordance with Article X of the Credit Agreement, or (ii) if any Proceeds (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) derived from the Collateral remain after application thereof to prepayment of the Loans as required under the Credit Agreement and as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, Borrowers must pay to Collateral Agent an amount (the “Aggregate Available Amount”) equal to the maximum amount that may at any time be drawn under all Letters of Credit then outstanding, and Borrowers shall deliver funds in such an amount for deposit in the L/C Collateral Account. If for any reason the aggregate amount delivered by Borrowers for deposit in the L/C Collateral Account as aforesaid is less than the Aggregate Available Amount, the aggregate amount so delivered by Borrowers shall be apportioned among all outstanding Letters of Credit for purposes of this Section 16 in accordance with the ratio of the maximum amount available for drawing under each such Letter of Credit (as to such Letter of Credit, the “Maximum Available Amount”) to the Aggregate Available Amount. Upon any drawing under any outstanding Letter of Credit in respect of which Borrowers have deposited in the L/C Collateral Account any amounts described above, Collateral Agent shall apply such amounts to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of such drawing. In the event of cancellation or expiration of any Letter of Credit in respect of which Company has deposited in the L/C Collateral Account any amounts described above, or in the event of any reduction in the Maximum Available Amount under such Letter of Credit, Collateral Agent shall apply the amount then on deposit in the L/C Collateral Account in respect of such Letter of Credit (less, in the case of such a reduction, the Maximum Available Amount under such
Letter of Credit immediately after such reduction) (A) first, to the payment of any amounts payable to Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 18 hereof, (B) second, to the extent of any excess, to the cash collateralization pursuant to the terms of this Agreement of any outstanding Letters of Credit in respect of which Borrowers have failed to pay all or a portion of the amounts described above (such cash collateralization to be apportioned among all such Letters of Credit in the manner described above), and (C) third, to the extent of any further excess, as provided in Section 3(a)(ii) of the Intercreditor Agreement.
SECTION 17. Additional Remedies for Intellectual Property Collateral.
(a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) Collateral Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit, in the name of any Grantor, Collateral Agent or otherwise, to enforce its rights with respect to any Intellectual Property Collateral, in which event each Grantor shall, at the request of Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and each Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify Collateral Agent as provided in Section 12.4 of the Credit Agreement and Section 19 hereof, as applicable, in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section 17, and, to the extent that Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Intellectual Property Collateral as provided in this Section 17, each Grantor agrees to use all commercially reasonable measures, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement of any material Intellectual Property Collateral by others and for that purpose agrees to use its commercially reasonable judgment in maintaining any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing reasonably necessary to prevent such infringement; (ii) upon written demand from Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall execute and deliver to Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the Intellectual Property Collateral and such other documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement; (iii) each Grantor agrees that such an assignment and/or recording shall be applied to reduce the Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that Collateral Agent (or any Lender) receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other realization upon, the Intellectual Property Collateral; and (iv) within five Business Days after written notice from Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall make available to Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Grantor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Grantor’s employ on the date of such Event of Default as Collateral Agent may reasonably designate, by name, title or job responsibility, to permit such Grantor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold or delivered by such Grantor under or in connection with the Trademarks, Trademark Registrations and Trademark Rights, such persons to be available to perform their prior functions on Collateral Agent’s behalf and to be compensated by Collateral Agent at such Grantor’s expense on a per diem, pro-rata basis consistent with the salary and benefit structure applicable to each as of the date of such Event of Default.
(b) If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment to Collateral Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property Collateral shall have been previously made, and (iv) the Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, upon the written request of any Grantor on behalf of itself and/or any other Grantor, Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each such Grantor such assignments as may be necessary to reassign to each such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to Collateral Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by Collateral Agent; provided, that, after giving effect to such reassignment, Collateral Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of Collateral
Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided, further, that, the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of all Liens other than (A) Liens (if any) encumbering such rights, title and interest at the time of their assignment to Collateral Agent, (B) licenses and sublicenses under any Intellectual Property Collateral granted to any third party by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the exercise of the rights granted to it under Section 10(b), and (C) Permitted Encumbrances.
SECTION 18. Application of Proceeds.
Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, all Proceeds received by Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, other realization upon, or any distribution on account of all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in the following order of priority; provided, that, Net Proceeds from Asset Sales and Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds arising from destruction, damage or condemnation of Collateral shall be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement:
FIRST: To the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder and all advances made by Collateral Agent hereunder for the account of Grantors, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by Collateral Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder;
SECOND: To the ratable payment of all other Secured Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof (including any Aggregate Available Amount deposited into the L/C Collateral Account for outstanding Letters of Credit, provided that if such Letters of Credit expire without being fully drawn, then at that time, such excess amounts shall be applied as provided in this Section 18 to then outstanding Secured Obligations) and, as to obligations arising under the Credit Agreement, as provided in the Credit Agreement, provided, that, no Proceeds received by Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, other realization upon, or any distribution on account of all or any part of any Excluded Collateral shall be applied toward payment of obligations in respect of any Specified New Senior Debt for which Collateral is excluded (and neither the holders thereof nor the Permitted Secured Debt Representative in respect thereof shall be entitled to any increased portion of any Proceeds of any other Collateral due to such exclusion); provided, further, that, in making such application in respect of outstanding obligations under Permitted Secured Debt Documents, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deduct from the share of such Proceeds otherwise payable to the Permitted Secured Debt Representatives the Permitted Secured Debt holders’ pro rata share of all amounts that the Collateral Agent has been paid by the Paying Indemnifying Parties (such term being used in this Section 18 as defined in Section 7(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement) pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement; and
THIRD: To the payment to or upon the order of the applicable Grantor, or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such proceeds.
SECTION 19. Indemnity and Expenses.
(a) Grantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify Collateral Agent, each Secured Party, including each Lender, each Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder, each holder of Permitted Secured Debt and each Permitted Secured Debt Representative from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities in any way relating to, growing out of or resulting from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation enforcement of this Agreement), except to the extent such claims, losses or liabilities result solely from Collateral Agent’s or such Secured Party’s, Lender’s, Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder’s or Permitted Secured Debt Representative’s or holder’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or from any failure on the part of Collateral Agent to file any continuation statements with respect to the Collateral.
(b) Grantors jointly and severally agree to pay to Collateral Agent upon demand the amount of any and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that Secured Party may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Secured Party hereunder, or (iv) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
(c) The obligations of Grantors in this Section 19 shall (i) survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of Grantors’ other obligations under this Agreement, the Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii), as to any Grantor that is a party to the Subsidiary Guaranty, be subject to the provisions thereof regarding contribution among such Grantors.
SECTION 20. Continuing Security Interest; Transfer of Loans; Termination and Release.
(a) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (A) termination of the security interest granted hereby pursuant to Section 20(b), and (B) the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (excluding the Other Permitted Credit Exposure and obligations under or in respect of the Permitted Secured Debt Documents or contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted), the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation or expiration of all outstanding Letters of Credit (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), (ii) be binding upon Grantors and their respective successors and assigns, and (iii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of Collateral Agent and its successors, and permitted transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (iii), (A) but subject to the provisions of Section 12.8 of the Credit Agreement, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any Loans held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to Lenders as Secured Parties herein or otherwise, (B) any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder may assign or otherwise transfer any Other Permitted Credit Exposure to any other Lender or Affiliate of Lender in accordance with the applicable Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents and such other permitted assignee shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder as a Secured Party herein or otherwise and (C) any holder of any Permitted Secured Debt may assign or otherwise transfer any Permitted Secured Debt to any other Person in accordance with the applicable Permitted Secured Debt Documents and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such holder (or its representative) as a Secured Party herein or otherwise.
(b) Upon the earlier to occur of (i) payment in full of all Secured Obligations (excluding the Other Permitted Credit Exposure and obligations under or in respect of the Permitted Secured Debt Documents or contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted), the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation or expiration of all outstanding Letters of Credit (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), and (ii) the first date on which the Collateral no longer secures the Obligations and upon election of Grantors and delivery of notice of such election to the Collateral Agent, the security interest granted hereby shall automatically terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Grantors. If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, or any Collateral is acquired by any Loan Party after the Closing Date financed with Indebtedness secured by a Lien permitted by Section 8.2(a)(vi) of the Credit Agreement, or if, as a result of a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, a transaction resulting in the Grantor no longer being a Subsidiary of Company), any Grantor is no longer required by the terms of the Credit Agreement to be a Grantor hereunder or any Collateral is no longer required to be covered by a security interest hereunder, such portion of the Collateral shall automatically be released from any Liens created hereby, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to such Collateral shall revert to the resulting owner of such Collateral. In the case of any release referred to in the two immediately preceding sentences, at such Grantor’s expense, the Collateral Agent shall promptly deliver to such Grantor any such Collateral held by the Collateral Agent hereunder (or certificate of title evidencing any such Collateral in the Collateral Agent’s possession), and execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases or other documents, including UCC termination statements and releases of certificates of title, reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. In addition, the Collateral Agent shall release the Collateral Agent’s security interest in a Deposit Account in which a Grantor has granted a security interest as permitted under Section 8.2(a) of the Credit Agreement, upon certification by the relevant Grantor (x) specifying the applicable Deposit Account, and (y) stating that the applicable Deposit Account is being pledged as permitted by subsection 8.2(a) of the Credit Agreement. Upon the receipt of such certification, Collateral Agent shall, at Grantor’s expense, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, execute and deliver such releases of its security interest in such Collateral which is to be so sold, transferred or disposed of or, in the case of the Deposit Account that is to be subjected to a lien permitted under Section 8.2(a) of the Credit Agreement, as may be reasonably requested by such Grantor). Further, if Requisite Lenders under the Credit Agreement, or if required, all Lenders, consent to the release or reconveyance of any of the Collateral, Collateral Agent shall release, and at Grantors’ expense execute and deliver any necessary releases of, its security interest in such Collateral in connection therewith and all such reconveyances or transfers shall be without recourse to the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties and without representation or warranty of any kind.
SECTION 21. Collateral Agent as Agent.
(a) Pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder by the Secured Parties and, by such appointment, Lenders, Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holders and Permitted Secured Debt Representatives shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including without limitation the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement; provided that Collateral Agent shall exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies provided for in Section 16 in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Obligees (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement). In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section 21(a), each Lender, Other
Permitted Credit Exposure Holder and Permitted Secured Debt Representative, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by each such Lender, Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder and Permitted Secured Debt Representative that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by Collateral Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties, in accordance with the terms of this Section 21(a).
(b) Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have any duty whatsoever with respect to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder or Permitted Secured Debt Representative until it shall have received written notice in form and substance satisfactory to Collateral Agent from a Grantor, or such Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder or Permitted Secured Debt Representative as to the existence and terms of the applicable Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents or Permitted Secured Debt Documents, as the case may be.
(c) References to the Collateral Agent with respect to periods prior to the date of the Agreement shall mean and refer to DBTCA in such capacity.
SECTION 22. Additional Grantors.
The initial Subsidiary Grantors hereunder shall be such of the Subsidiaries of Company as are signatories hereto on the date hereof. From time to time subsequent to the date hereof, additional Subsidiaries of Company (including, without limitation, Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrowers) may become parties hereto as additional Grantors (each an “Additional Grantor”), by executing a Counterpart substantially in the form of Exhibit I annexed hereto. Upon delivery of any such Counterpart to Collateral Agent, notice of which is hereby waived by Grantors, each such Additional Grantor shall be a Grantor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Grantor were an original signatory hereto. Each Grantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Grantor hereunder, nor by any election of Collateral Agent not to cause any Subsidiary of Company to become an Additional Grantor hereunder. This Agreement shall be fully effective as to any Grantor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Grantor hereunder.
SECTION 23. Amendments; Etc.
No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Collateral Agent and, in the case of any such amendment or modification, by Grantors; provided, that, this Agreement may be modified by the execution of a Counterpart by an Additional Grantor in accordance with Section 22 and Grantors hereby waive any requirement of notice of or consent to any such amendment. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
SECTION 24. Notices.
Any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and may be personally served or sent by e-mail or telefacsimile or United States mail or courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by courier service, upon receipt of e-mail or telefacsimile, or three Business Days after depositing it in the United States mail with postage prepaid and properly addressed; provided, that, notices to Collateral Agent shall not be effective
until received. For the purposes hereof, the address of each Grantor shall be c/o Borrowers’ Agent at the address set forth therefor in the Credit Agreement and the address of each other party hereto shall be as provided in the Credit Agreement or as set forth under such party’s name on the signature pages hereof or such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice delivered to the other parties hereto.
SECTION 25. Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.
No failure or delay on the part of Collateral Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.
SECTION 26. Severability.
In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
SECTION 27. Headings.
Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

The rules of construction set forth in Section 1.2 of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable to this Agreement mutatis mutandis.
SECTION 29. Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process.
ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY GRANTOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN XXX XXXXX, XXXXXX XXX XXXX XX XXX XXXX.

SECTION 30. Waiver of Jury Trial.
EACH GRANTOR AND COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. The scope of this waiver is intended to be all encompassing of any and all disputes that may be filed in any court and that relate to the subject matter of this transaction, including without limitation contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims, and all other common law and statutory claims. Each Grantor and Collateral Agent acknowledge that this waiver is a material inducement for each Grantor and Collateral Agent to enter into a business relationship, that each Grantor and Collateral Agent have already relied on this waiver in entering into this Agreement and that each will continue to rely on this waiver in their related future dealings. Each Grantor and Collateral Agent further warrant and represent that each has reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel, and that each knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights following consultation with legal counsel. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 30 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.
SECTION 31. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts (including by telecopy or electronic PDF), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.
SECTION 32. Amendment and Restatement.
This Agreement amends, restates, supersedes, and replaces in its entirety the Existing Security Agreement. The security interest granted by each Grantor in the “Collateral” under and as defined in the Existing Security Agreement continues without interruption under this Agreement and such
security interest is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

Nothing express or implied in this Agreement shall be construed as a release or discharge of any Grantor under the Existing Security Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.

The security interests granted by the Company and Packaging pursuant to Section 1.1 of this Agreement secures on a first priority basis, and the Pledged Collateral is collateral security for, the prompt payment or performance in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (including the payment of amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), of all Obligations, all obligations of the Pledgors under any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents and all obligations of either Pledgor or other permitted obligor under any Permitted Secured Debt Documents, in each case whether for principal, premium or interest (including, without limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding with respect to the Pledgor, would accrue on such obligations), payments for early termination, payments for settlement of amounts due under any such agreement, fees, expenses or otherwise and all obligations of either Pledgor or other permitted obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, in each case, excluding Excluded Swap Obligations (all such obligations being the “Senior Secured Obligations”); provided, that, the pledge made and security interest granted in Section 1 and any other provisions of this Agreement shall be effective as to any obligations in respect of any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents or Permitted Secured Debt Documents only if the holders of such obligations or their representatives shall have executed and delivered to Collateral Agent an appropriate acknowledgment to
an Applicable Intercreditor Agreement acknowledged by Borrowers’ Agent (it being acknowledged that such execution, acknowledgment and delivery has been completed with respect to those other obligations set forth on Exhibit I to the Intercreditor Agreement and all of the foregoing are and continue to be secured hereunder). For purposes of determining the amount of Senior Secured Obligations relating to any obligation with respect to which a Person other than a Pledgor is the direct or primary obligor and with respect to which a Pledgor is a guarantor (including by way of providing security), the total amount of such Senior Secured Obligations shall be calculated without duplication of the amount of such direct or primary obligation secured by the Pledged Collateral and the related guaranty obligations of the Pledgors secured by the Pledged Collateral.
2.2 Second Priority Secured Obligations. The security interest granted by the Pledgors pursuant to Section 1.2 of this Agreement secures on a second priority basis, and the Pledged Collateral is collateral security for, the prompt payment in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (including amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), of all obligations of the Pledgors now or hereafter existing under the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Subordinated Guaranty and all obligations under the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Indenture and the Existing Holdings Senior Notes issued thereunder in each case whether for principal, premium, interest (including, without limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding with respect to a Pledgor, would accrue on such obligations), fees, expenses or otherwise, and all obligations of the Pledgors now or hereafter existing under this Agreement (all such obligations being the “Second Priority Secured Obligations”). For purposes of determining the amount of Second Priority Secured Obligations relating to any obligation with respect to which a Pledgor is a guarantor (including by way of providing security), the total amount of such Second Priority Secured Obligations shall be calculated without duplication of the amount of such direct or primary obligation secured by the Pledged Collateral and the related guaranty obligations of the Pledgors secured by the Pledged Collateral. The Senior Secured Obligations and the Second Priority Secured Obligations collectively are referred to herein as the “Secured Obligations”.
2.3 Rights in Pledged Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Document, Permitted Secured Debt Document, Existing Holdings Senior Notes Indenture or Existing Holdings Senior Notes Subordinated Guaranty, and irrespective of:
(a) the time, order or method of attachment or perfection of the security interests created hereby;
(b) the time or order of filing or recording of financing statements or other documents filed or recorded to perfect security interests in any Pledged Collateral, and
(c) the rules for determining priority under the Uniform Commercial Code or any other law or rule governing the relative priorities of secured creditors,
any security interest in any Pledged Collateral heretofore or hereafter granted to secure any Senior Secured Obligation has and shall have priority, to the extent of any unpaid Senior Secured Obligations, over any security interest in such Pledged Collateral granted to secure the Second Priority Secured Obligations.
SECTION 3. DELIVERY OF PLEDGED COLLATERAL.
3.1 All certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the Pledged Collateral shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of Collateral Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to Collateral Agent. Collateral Agent shall have the right, at any time upon or after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in Section 11) and without notice to either Pledgor, to transfer to or to register in the name of Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Pledged Collateral. In addition, Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations. Collateral Agent expressly acknowledges (including in accordance with Section 8-301(a)(2) and Section 9-313(c) of the New York Uniform Commercial Code) that, in addition to holding the Pledged Collateral as agent for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, it holds the Pledged Collateral as agent for the benefit of each of the Second Priority Secured Parties.

(c) In order to permit the Pledgors to exercise the voting and other rights which they are entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 6.1(a) above and to receive the dividends, distributions, principal or interest payments which they are authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 6.1(b) above, Collateral Agent shall, if necessary, upon written request of a Pledgor, from time to time execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to such Pledgor all such proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request.
(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(i) Upon written notice from Collateral Agent to a Pledgor, all rights of such Pledgor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 6.1(a) above shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Collateral Agent which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights during the continuance of such Event of Default.
(ii) Other than amounts to be used by a Pledgor to directly or indirectly make Holdings Ordinary Course Payments permitted to be paid pursuant to subsection 8.5 of the Credit Agreement, all rights of a Pledgor to receive the dividends, distributions, principal and interest payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 6.1(b) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Collateral Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such dividends, distributions, principal and interest payments during the continuance of such Event of Default.
(e) In order to permit Collateral Agent to receive all dividends and other distributions to which it may be entitled under Section 6.1(d) above, to exercise the
voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 6.1(d) above, and to receive all dividends, distributions, principal and interest payments and other distributions which it may be entitled to receive under Section 6.1(b) above, each Pledgor shall, if necessary, upon written notice from Collateral Agent, from time to time execute and deliver to Collateral Agent appropriate proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as Collateral Agent may reasonably request.

SECTION 7. TRANSFERS AND OTHER LIENS; ADDITIONAL SHARES.
7.1 Transfers and Other Liens. Each Pledgor agrees that it will not, except as permitted by the Credit Agreement, (i) sell or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option or warrant with respect to, any of the Pledged Collateral, (ii) create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral, except for the liens and security interests under this Agreement, or (iii) permit any issuer of Pledged Shares to merge or consolidate unless all the outstanding capital stock of the surviving or resulting corporation is, upon such merger or consolidation, pledged hereunder and no cash, securities or other property is distributed in respect of the outstanding shares of any other constituent corporation; provided, however, that in the event of an Asset Sale permitted by the Credit Agreement wherein the assets subject to such Asset Sale are Pledged Shares, Collateral Agent shall release the Pledged Shares that are the subject of such Asset Sale to the applicable Pledgor free and clear of the lien and security interest under this Agreement (a) so long as any Obligations remain outstanding under the Intercreditor Agreement, concurrently with the receipt of advice from the Lender Agent thereunder that arrangements satisfactory to it have been made for delivery to it of the Net Proceeds of such Asset Sale to which the Lenders, Permitted Secured Debt Holders and Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holders are entitled under the Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, (b) after such time as all Obligations under the Credit Agreement have been paid in full and the Credit Agreement and the Letters of Credit have terminated, in the event that any other Secured Parties are entitled to receive any portion of the proceeds of such Asset Sale, concurrently with the receipt of advice from the agent or trustee for such Secured Parties that arrangements satisfactory to it have been made for delivery to it of the amounts required to be paid to such Secured Parties out of the proceeds of such Asset Sale, and (c) in the event no Secured Party is entitled to receive any portion of the proceeds of such Asset Sale, concurrently with the consummation of such Asset Sale; and provided, further, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) Collateral Agent shall release Pledged Shares or other Pledged Collateral from the liens and security interests of this Agreement as may be specified by the Lender Agent upon the approval of the release of such Pledged Shares or other Pledged Collateral, and (y) Collateral Agent shall release Pledged Shares or other Pledged Collateral from the liens and security interests of this Agreement, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in, and in accordance with, Section 18 below.

SECTION 8. COLLATERAL AGENT APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.
Each Pledgor hereby appoints Collateral Agent such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in Section 11) in Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to such Pledgor representing any dividend, interest payment or other distribution in respect of such Pledged Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.
SECTION 9. COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM.
If either Pledgor fails to perform any agreement contained herein after receipt of a written request to do so from Collateral Agent, Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of Collateral Agent, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel, incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Pledgors under Section 13 hereof.
SECTION 10. REASONABLE CARE.
Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if the Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of negotiable securities, it being understood that neither Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Pledged Collateral, whether or not Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (ii) taking any necessary steps (other than steps taken in accordance with the standard of care set forth above to maintain possession of the Pledged Shares and Pledged Debt) to preserve rights against any Person with respect to any Pledged Collateral.
SECTION 11. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT; DECISIONS RELATING TO EXERCISE OF REMEDIES.
11.1 Remedies Upon Default. Subject to Sections 11.2 and 11.3, (i) if any Event of Default under and as defined in the Credit Agreement, or (ii) after such time as all Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) shall have been paid in full and the Credit Agreement and the Letters of Credit have terminated or expired (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender) (“Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations”), and provided, that, the Pledged Collateral then secures the payment and performance of any obligations under any Permitted Secured Debt Documents or any obligations under any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents, if any event of default under (A) any Permitted Secured Debt Documents which are secured by the Pledged Collateral or (B) any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents which are secured by the Pledged Collateral, as the case may be, or (iii) after such time as all Senior Secured Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, and provided, that, the Pledged Collateral then secures the payment and performance of the Second Priority Secured Obligations, if any
event of default under the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Indenture which are secured by the Pledged Collateral, (each of the events of default described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) (subject to any provisos set forth therein) being referred to herein as an “Event of Default”) shall have occurred and be continuing:
(a) Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Uniform Commercial Code (the “Code”) in effect in the State of New York at that time, and Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified below, sell the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable, irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the Pledged Collateral. Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Pledged Collateral at any such sale (in the case of a private sale, only to the extent permitted by law) but, except for Collateral Agent, shall not be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such Person as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Pledged Collateral payable by such Person at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of either Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Pledgor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives any claims against Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Pledged Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.
(b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws, Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including, without limitation, a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation
to delay the sale of any Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Pledgor would agree to do so.
(c) If Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Collateral, upon written request, each Pledgor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Pledged Shares to be sold hereunder from time to time to furnish to Collateral Agent all such information as Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the number of shares and other instruments included in the Pledged Collateral which may be sold by Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.
11.2 Decisions Relating to Exercise of Remedies. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, Collateral Agent shall exercise, or shall refrain from exercising, any remedy provided for in this Section 11 in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Obligees (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) and any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holders, the holders of any Permitted Secured Debt or any Permitted Secured Debt Representative, the holders of the Existing Holdings Senior Notes and the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Trustee; and the sole rights of the Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holders, the holders of any Permitted Secured Debt and any Permitted Secured Debt Representative with respect thereto, holders of the Existing Holdings Senior Notes and the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Trustee and their respective representatives under this Agreement shall be to be secured by the Pledged Collateral and to receive the payments provided for in Section 12 hereof.
11.3 Limitations on Exercise of Remedies. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, Collateral Agent shall not exercise any remedy provided for in this Section 11 for the purpose of realizing value on the Pledged Collateral to be applied to the payment of the Second Priority Secured Obligations unless (a) such remedy is concurrently being exercised for the purpose of realizing value on the Pledged Collateral to be applied to the payment of the Senior Secured Obligations or (b) all Senior Secured Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full.
SECTION 12. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS.
After and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any cash held by Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Collateral Agent (all such cash being “Proceeds”) in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to the exercise by Collateral Agent of its remedies as a secured creditor as provided in Section 11 of this Agreement shall be applied promptly from time to time by Collateral Agent as follows:
First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Collateral Agent in connection therewith;
Second, to the payment of the Senior Secured Obligations (including any Aggregate Available Amount (as defined in the Security Agreement) deposits into the L/C Collateral Account for outstanding Letters of Credit, provided that if such Letters of Credit expire without being fully drawn, then at that time, such excess amounts shall be applied as provided in this Section 12 to then outstanding
Senior Secured Obligations) for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof; provided, that, in making such application in respect of outstanding obligations under Permitted Secured Debt Documents, Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deduct from the share of such Proceeds otherwise payable to the Permitted Secured Debt Representatives the Permitted Secured Debt holders’ pro rata share of all amounts that Collateral Agent has been paid by the Paying Indemnifying Parties (such term being used in this Section 12 as defined in Section 7(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement) pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement;
Third, only after payment in full of all Senior Secured Obligations, to the payment of the Second Priority Secured Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof; provided, that, that in making such application to the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Trustee, Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deduct from the share of such Proceeds otherwise payable to the holders of the Existing Holdings Senior Notes such holders’ pro rata share of all amounts that Collateral Agent has been paid by the Paying Indemnifying Parties pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement; and
Fourth, after payment in full of all Secured Obligations, to applicable Pledgor, or its successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such Proceeds.
At the time of any application of Proceeds by Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 12, Collateral Agent shall provide the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Trustee and any Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder and/or Permitted Secured Debt Representative with a certificate setting forth the total amount paid to Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement and a calculation of the amounts, if any, deducted from Proceeds paid to the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Trustee, Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holders or Permitted Secured Debt Representatives, as the case may be.
SECTION 13. EXPENSES.
The Pledgors will upon demand pay to Collateral Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder or (iv) the failure by any Pledgor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof. The Pledgors’ obligations under this Section 13 shall be joint and several.
SECTION 14. NO WAIVER.
No failure on the part of Collateral Agent to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by Collateral Agent of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are to the fullest extent permitted by law cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
SECTION 15. COLLATERAL AGENT.
Existing Collateral Agent was appointed as collateral agent under the Third Amended and Restated Pledge Agreement pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement by the Lender Agent, the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Trustee, the holders of the other obligations described on Exhibit I to the
Intercreditor Agreement and, pursuant to the Assignment Agreement and Section 12.21 of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent has been appointed as Collateral Agent under the Intercreditor Agreement, and, in the event that any future Other Permitted Credit Exposure or future Permitted Secured Debt is secured hereby, by each future Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder and future Permitted Secured Debt Representative executing an acknowledgment to the Intercreditor Agreement and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the benefits of the Intercreditor Agreement. Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right, hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Pledged Collateral) solely in accordance with this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement. Collateral Agent may resign and a successor collateral agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Intercreditor Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as a collateral agent by a successor collateral agent, that successor collateral agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring collateral agent under this Agreement, and the retiring collateral agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and shall deliver any Pledged Collateral in its possession to the successor collateral agent. After any retiring collateral agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was Collateral Agent. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event of any conflict between the express terms and provisions of this Agreement and the express terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, such terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control.
References to Collateral Agent with respect to periods prior to the date of this Agreement shall mean and refer to DBTCA in such capacity.
SECTION 16. INDEMNIFICATION.
Each Pledgor hereby agrees to indemnify Collateral Agent for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Collateral Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty, the Other Permitted Credit Exposure Documents, the Existing Holdings Senior Notes, the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Indenture, the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Subordinated Guaranty or Permitted Secured Debt Documents or any other documents contemplated by or referred to therein or the transactions contemplated thereby or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any such other documents or otherwise arising or relating in any manner to the pledges, dispositions of Pledged Collateral or proceeds of Pledged Collateral, or other actions of any nature with respect to the Pledged Collateral contemplated hereunder and under the Intercreditor Agreement to secure the payment of the Secured Obligations; provided, however, that, the Pledgor shall not be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Collateral Agent or failure by Collateral Agent to exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral as provided in Section 10 hereof.
SECTION 17. AMENDMENTS, ETC.
Prior to such time as all Senior Secured Obligations (other than continent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Credit Agreement has terminated and all Letters of Credit have been cancelled (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), this Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived except with the written consent of the Pledgors, Collateral Agent and the Lender Agent and, solely with respect to an amendment of Section 12 hereof, the relative ranking or the priority
of the security interests granted in Section 1 hereof, this Section 17, or the release of Pledged Collateral except as herein provided, with the written consent of each Other Permitted Credit Exposure Holder (if the Pledged Collateral then secures such Other Permitted Credit Exposure), any Permitted Secured Debt Representative (if the Pledged Collateral then secures Permitted Secured Debt) and the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Trustee (if the Pledged Collateral then secures the Existing Holdings Senior Notes), in each case to the extent such Secured Party is affected thereby in a manner adverse to such party; provided, that, the written consent of the Lender Agent shall not be required if there has been a Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations; provided, further, that, if there has been a Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations, the written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Permitted Secured Debt which is secured by the Pledged Collateral shall be required for any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement; provided, further, that, during such time as the Pledged Collateral secures only the payment of the Second Priority Secured Obligations, this Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived except with the written consent of the Pledgors, Collateral Agent and the Existing Holdings Senior Notes Trustee (if the Pledged Collateral then secures the Existing Holdings Senior Notes); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such written consent of any party (other than the Lender Agent) shall be required with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers necessary to permit the incurrence of additional Indebtedness (including any successor or replacement facility to the Credit Agreement) secured by the Pledged Collateral and entitled to the benefits hereof insofar as the foregoing is not prohibited by the applicable documents governing or evidencing the Secured Obligations, including without limitation any amendments, modifications or waivers for the purpose of adding appropriate references to additional parties in, and according such parties the benefits of, any of the provisions hereof and designating such parties as Senior Secured Parties (and the related obligations as Senior Secured Obligations) or Second Priority Secured Parties (and the related obligations as Second Priority Secured Obligations), as applicable, in connection with the incurrence of such indebtedness.

Notwithstanding anything herein (including, without limitation, Section 20) to the contrary, if there has been a Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations or all the Obligations are no longer secured by any of the Pledged Collateral, this Agreement shall be terminable at the election of the Pledgors and upon the delivery of written notice of such election to Collateral Agent, this Agreement shall terminate and Collateral Agent shall, at the expense of the Pledgors, forthwith assign, transfer and deliver against receipt and without recourse to Collateral Agent, such Pledged Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof to or on the order of the Pledgors and execute and deliver to Pledgors such documents as Pledgors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

A copy of any such process so served shall be mailed by registered mail to the Pledgors at their addresses referred to in Section 19 hereof, except that unless otherwise provided by applicable law, any failure to mail such copy shall not affect the validity of service of process. If any agent appointed by the Pledgors refuses to accept service, each Pledgor hereby agrees that service upon it by mail shall constitute sufficient notice. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Collateral Agent to bring proceedings against a Pledgor in the courts of any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 23. SECURITY INTEREST ABSOLUTE.
All rights of Collateral Agent and security interests hereunder, and all obligations of the Pledgors hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and Pledgors hereby waive any and all defenses that they may now or in the future have arising out of:

WHEREAS, it is contemplated that the Other Permitted Credit Exposure will directly or indirectly inure to, in whole or in part, the benefit of Guarantors;
WHEREAS, Lenders have required that this Guaranty be executed and delivered by Guarantors pursuant to Sections 5.1(a)(iv) and 7.9 of the Credit Agreement:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantors hereby agree as follows:
Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty the due and punctual payment of all Obligations and all obligations in respect of Other Permitted Credit Exposure when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required payment, declaration, demand or otherwise (including amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), and agree to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by Collateral Agent or Lenders in enforcing or preserving any rights under this Guaranty, in each case, excluding any Excluded Swap Obligations (collectively, the “Guarantied Obligations”); provided, that, the guaranty hereunder and any other provisions of this Guaranty shall be effective as to any obligations in respect of any Other Permitted Credit Exposure, and such obligations shall be Guarantied Obligations hereunder, only if the holders of said obligations (or their representatives) shall have delivered to Collateral Agent an acknowledgment to the Intercreditor Agreement duly executed by such holder or its representative and by Borrowers’ Agent together with evidence that any guaranty of such Other Permitted Credit Exposure by Holdings, if any, has been released in full. Certain such acknowledgments have previously been so executed, delivered and acknowledged with respect to the Other Permitted Credit Exposure described on Exhibit I attached to the Intercreditor Agreement and supplemented on the date hereof. Any Lender or Affiliate thereof obtaining the benefit of this Guaranty with respect to Other Permitted Credit Exposure (including those set forth on Exhibit I to the Intercreditor Agreement which Exhibit shall be supplemented on the date hereof by delivery to the Collateral Agent of a supplement to such Exhibit which shall supersede and replace such Exhibit and thereafter such supplement shall constitute Exhibit I to the Intercreditor Agreement) shall remain a Guarantied Party hereunder with respect to such Other Permitted Credit Exposure only for so long as such Lender remains a Lender under the Credit Agreement.
Anything contained in this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Fraudulent Transfer Law (as hereinafter defined) is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be applicable to the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, such obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Guarantor in respect of intercompany indebtedness to Company or other affiliates of Company to the extent that such indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the
amount paid by such Guarantor hereunder) and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of such Guarantor pursuant to applicable law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement (including any such right of contribution hereunder).
Guarantors under this Guaranty together desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by any Guarantor under this Guaranty (a “Funding Guarantor”) that exceeds its Fair Share (as defined below) as of such date, that Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Guarantors in the amount of such other Guarantor’s Fair Share Shortfall (as defined below) as of such date, with the result that all such contributions will cause each Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments (as defined below) to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (i) the ratio of (x) the Adjusted Maximum Amount (as defined below) with respect to such Guarantor to (y) the aggregate of the Adjusted Maximum Amounts with respect to all Guarantors, multiplied by (ii) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations guarantied. “Fair Share Shortfall” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the excess, if any, of the Fair Share of such Guarantor over the Aggregate Payments made by such Guarantor. “Adjusted Maximum Amount” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty, determined as of such date in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph; provided, that, solely for purposes of calculating the “Adjusted Maximum Amount” with respect to any Guarantor for purposes of this paragraph, any assets or liabilities of such Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (i) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, in respect of this paragraph) minus (ii) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Guarantor from the other Guarantors as contributions under this paragraph. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder with respect to any payments or distributions giving rise to a contribution obligation shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this paragraph shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Guarantor hereunder.
Guarantors agree that the Guarantied Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from them, and that each Guarantor will remain bound upon this Guaranty notwithstanding any extension, renewal or other alteration of any Guarantied Obligation.
Guarantors waive presentation of, demand of, and protest of any Guarantied Obligation and also waive notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of Guarantors under this Guaranty shall not be affected by, and each Guarantor hereby waives, all defenses that may now or hereafter arise from:
(a) the failure of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower or any other borrower under the provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any document relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any other agreement or otherwise,
(b) any extension or renewal of any provision of any Loan Document, any document relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any other agreement or otherwise,
(c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any document relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any instrument or agreement executed pursuant thereto, in each case in accordance with its terms,
(d) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the security held by any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person for any of the Guarantied Obligations, or
(e) the failure of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of any of the Guarantied Obligations.
Guarantors further agree that this Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waive any right to require that any resort be had by any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person to any of the security held for payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person in favor of Company or any other Person.
The obligations of Guarantors under this Guaranty shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Guarantied Obligations, the discharge of any Borrower or any other borrower from any of the Guarantied Obligations in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Guarantors under this Guaranty shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any document relating to any Other Permitted Credit Exposure or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, or any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of Guarantors or which would otherwise operate as a discharge of Guarantors as a matter of law or equity.
Guarantors further agree that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of, interest on or any other amount with respect to any Guarantied Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Company, any Guarantor, any other Person or otherwise.
Guarantors further agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Guarantied Party, Collateral Agent or any other Person may have at law or in equity against Guarantors by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any obligor of any Guarantied Obligation to pay any of the Guarantied Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether by required prepayment, declaration or otherwise (including amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), Guarantors will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash to Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of Guarantied Parties,
an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of such Guarantied Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guarantied Obligations (including, without limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding with respect to Company, would have accrued on such Guarantied Obligations) and all other Guarantied Obligations then owed to Guarantied Parties as aforesaid. All such payments shall be applied promptly from time to time by Collateral Agent:
First, to the payment of the costs and expenses of any collection or other realization under this Guaranty, including reasonable compensation to Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Collateral Agent in connection therewith;
Second, (i) upon and during the effectiveness of the Intercreditor Agreement, to the payment of the Guarantied Obligations as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) except as set forth in clause (i), to the payment of the Guarantied Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof; and
Third, after payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations, to the payment to Guarantors, or their successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining from such payments.
Each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company or any other Loan Party or any of their respective assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company or any other Loan Party, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party now has or may hereafter have against Company or any Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party. In addition, until the Guarantied Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or any obligations and liabilities under Other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Hedge Bank, Lender or Affiliate of Lender shall have been made) shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been terminated (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guarantied Obligations (including without limitation any such right of contribution hereunder) as a result of any payment hereunder. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any such rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against Company or any other Loan Party or against any collateral or security, and any such rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have against Company, to all right, title and interest Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right Collateral Agent or any Guarantied Party may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement,
indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guarantied Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Collateral Agent on behalf of Guarantied Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to Collateral Agent for the benefit of Guarantied Parties to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.
No delay or omission by any Guarantied Party or Collateral Agent to exercise any right under this Guaranty shall impair any such right, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver thereof No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, or consent to any departure by Guarantors therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite Lenders under the Credit Agreement.

Upon the liquidation of any Guarantor, the obligations of that Guarantor hereunder shall be assumed by its successors (including, without limitation, its stockholders on the date of such liquidation) except to the extent that any such assumption (i) shall be prohibited by applicable law or (ii) would be considered an investment of earnings in United States property under Section 956 (or a successor provision) of the Internal Revenue Code which investment would trigger an increase in the gross income of a United States stockholder of such successor pursuant to Section 951 (or a successor provision) of the Internal Revenue Code.
If all of the stock of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest under this Guaranty shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in an Asset Sale or other transaction not prohibited by the Credit Agreement or otherwise consented to by Requisite Lenders under the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by Collateral Agent or any other Person or any Guarantied Party, effective as of the time of such Asset Sale or other transaction or consent.

If any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest under this Guaranty shall be merged with and into any Restricted Subsidiary of Company in a transaction not prohibited by the Credit Agreement or otherwise consented to by Requisite Lenders under the Credit Agreement, and if such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, is not the surviving corporation in such merger, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall be automatically discharged and released without any further action by Collateral Agent or any other
Person or any Guarantied Party, effective as of the time of consummation of such merger. At the request of Borrowers’ Agent, Collateral Agent shall execute an acknowledgment thereof.

ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY GUARANTOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY, OR ANY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN XXX XXXXX, XXXXXX XXX XXXX XX XXX XXXX.

(I) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS;
(II) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS;
(III) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO SUCH GUARANTOR AT THE ADDRESS OF BORROWERS’ AGENT PROVIDED IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT;
(IV) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (III) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH GUARANTOR IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT;
(V) AGREES THAT COLLATERAL AGENT RETAINS THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST SUCH GUARANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION; AND
(VI) AGREES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH RELATING TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE SHALL BE BINDING AND ENFORCEABLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION 5-1402 OR OTHERWISE.
The initial Guarantors hereunder shall be such of the Restricted Subsidiaries of Company as are signatories hereto on the date hereof. From time to time subsequent to the date hereof, additional Restricted Subsidiaries of Company may become or Additional Domestic Subsidiary Borrowers may be required to become parties hereto, as additional Guarantors (each an “Additional Guarantor”), by executing a counterpart of this Guaranty. Upon delivery of any such counterpart to Collateral Agent, notice of which is hereby waived by Guarantors, each such Additional Guarantor shall be a Guarantor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Guarantor were an original signatory hereof. Each Guarantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by
the addition or release of any other Guarantor hereunder, nor by any election of Lenders not to cause any Restricted Subsidiary of Company to become an Additional Guarantor hereunder. This Guaranty shall be fully effective as to any Guarantor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Guarantor hereunder.
The Guarantors hereby agree to waive their rights to a jury trial with respect to any action or proceeding in connection with this Guaranty to the full extent provided in Section 12.9 of the Credit Agreement and such Section 12.9 of the Credit Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts (including by telecopy or electronic PDF), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original for all purposes; but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This Guaranty shall become effective as to each Guarantor upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by such Guarantor (whether or not a counterpart hereof shall have been executed by any other Guarantor) and receipt by Collateral Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof. At such time as all Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or any obligations and liabilities under Other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Hedge Bank shall have been made) have been paid in full and all Commitments have terminated and all Letters of Credit have expired or have been terminated (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender), this Guaranty shall be of no further force and effect as to any Guarantied Obligations, including (without limitation) any Other Lender Guarantied Obligations guaranteed hereby and this Guaranty of Guarantor shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by Collateral Agent, any Guarantied Party or any other Person. At the request of Borrower’s Agent, Collateral Agent shall execute an acknowledgment thereof.
This Guaranty amends, restates, supersedes, and replaces in its entirety the Existing Guaranty. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a novation of the obligations outstanding under the Existing Guaranty, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby. Nothing express or implied in this Guaranty shall be construed as a release or discharge of any Guarantor under the Existing Guaranty.
Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this paragraph for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this paragraph, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this paragraph shall remain in full force and effect until a repayment in full and termination of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted or any obligations and liabilities under other Permitted Credit Exposure as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Hedge Bank, Lender or Affiliate of Lender shall have been made or Letters of Credit which have been cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this paragraph constitute, and this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned Guarantors has caused this Guaranty to be duly executed as of the day and year first written above.
