WHEREAS, contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, (i) Borrower, Lender, ALICO
Holdings LLC and the Guarantors party thereto have entered into a Guarantee, Pledge and Proceeds
Application Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Pledge Agreement”), which provides, among
other things, for security for Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement and pursuant to which
ALICO Holdings LLC and the other guarantors party thereto have guaranteed Borrower’s repayment of
the Loan;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants made herein, the parties
hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
1. The Loan.
1.1 | The Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender agrees to make an advance to Borrower in the original principal amount of Nineteen Billion, Nine Hundred and Sixty Million, Nine Hundred and Seventy Five Thousand, One Hundred and Seventy Nine Dollars and One Cent ($19,960,975,179.01) (the “Loan”). Upon funding of the Loan, Borrower shall immediately become indebted to Lender for the full amount of the Loan. The Loan shall not be secured or guaranteed except pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement. | |
1.2 | The Purpose of the Loan. Borrower will use the proceeds received in respect of the Loan to repay, or cause to be repaid, principal together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement dated as of September 22, 2008 between the Borrower and the FRBNY (the “FRBNY |
Credit Facility”) (including any fees or other amounts that may become due upon termination of the FRBNY Credit Facility) immediately upon receipt of such proceeds in accordance with and pursuant to the terms of the FRBNY Credit Facility. Borrower shall immediately repay any portion of the Loan in excess of the amount required to repay all principal together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts outstanding under the FRBNY Credit Facility (including any fees or other amounts that may become due upon termination of the FRBNY Credit Facility) at the Closing in accordance with and pursuant to the terms of the FRBNY Credit Facility. | ||
1.3 | The Note. The Loan shall be evidenced by the promissory note of Borrower in the form attached as Exhibit A (the “Note”), which shall be executed and delivered to Lender by Borrower and dated the date hereof. | |
1.4 | Payment of the Loan. |
(a) Payment upon Demand. Borrower shall, as Lender shall from time to
time demand from Borrower upon at least 3 business days’ advance notice (a
“Demand”), pay the entire unpaid principal amount of the Loan, together with any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon (as determined from time to time, the “Payoff
Amount”); provided, however, that no such Demand shall be made prior to January 1,
2014.
(b) Mandatory Payment.
(i) Prior to the making of a Demand in accordance with Section 1.4(a) hereof,
Borrower shall make payments to Lender on account of the unpaid principal amount of the
Loan, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon in accordance with Section 4
of the Pledge Agreement.
(ii) Any mandatory payment made by Borrower and allocated to repayment of the Loan in
accordance with Section 4 of the Pledge Agreement shall be credited first to repayment of
all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loan as of the date of such payment and then to the
unpaid principal amount of the Loan.
(iii) Any Designated Cash Escrowed Funds (as defined in the Master Transaction
Agreement) distributed to Lender pursuant to Section 3.02(d) of the Master Transaction
Agreement and allocated to repayment of the Loan in accordance with Section 4 of the
Pledge Agreement shall be treated for all relevant purposes as a mandatory payment of the
Loan in accordance with this Section 1.4(b).
(c) Voluntary Payment. Borrower shall have the right to pay, without
premium or penalty, the whole or any part of the Loan; provided that any amount so
repaid is subject to allocation as between the Loan and the other Secured
Obligations (as defined in the Pledge Agreement, the
-2-
“Secured Obligations”) in accordance with Section 4 of the Pledge Agreement
and in no event shall Borrower have the right to dictate the order in which the
Secured Obligations are paid. Any voluntary payment made by Borrower and allocated
to repayment of the Loan in accordance with Section 4 of the Pledge Agreement shall
be credited first to repayment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loan as of
the date of such payment and then to the unpaid principal amount of the Loan.
(d) Payment of Interest. Interest shall be payable upon the unpaid
principal amount of the Loan for the period from the date of the borrowing of such
principal through but excluding the date upon which such principal is fully paid
(the “Interest Accrual Period”). The rate of interest shall be equal to (i) from
the date of the borrowing through but excluding September 22, 2013, five percent
(5.000%) per annum and (ii) from September 22, 2013 through but excluding the date
upon which the unpaid principal amount of the Loan is fully repaid, nine percent
(9.000%) per annum. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual days
elapsed in a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and shall accrue on the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loan on any day during the Interest
Accrual Period. Any accrued interest that has not been paid as of the last day of
any calendar quarter pursuant to Section 1.4(a), Section 1.4(b) or Section 1.4(c)
hereof shall be added to the unpaid principal amount of the Loan as of the first
day of the next calendar quarter.
(e) Limitation on Payment. In no event shall Borrower be obligated to
pay to Lender more than the Payoff Amount on account of the Loan.
(f) Manner of Payment. All payments to be made by Borrower on account
of the borrowing hereunder shall be made to the order of Lender without any set-off
or counterclaim free and clear of and without any deduction or withholding
whatsoever in lawful currency of the United States of America and in immediately
available funds.
(g) Limitation on Recourse. Capitalized terms used in this section
but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings given to such terms in
the Pledge Agreement. Lender shall have recourse in respect of the obligation of
Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Agreement or the
Note issued hereunder only (1) to the Collateral and (2) against the Borrower (x)
up to an aggregate amount equal at any time to the fair market value of the
Designated Interests that are not Collateral at such time, as reasonably determined
in good faith by the AIG Board, or if the Rights Holder on behalf of the Lender
contests such valuation, by an investment banking firm of national standing
designated by mutual agreement of AIG and the Rights Holder on behalf of the Lender
and (y) in respect of any amounts due but unpaid pursuant to Section 4(a) of the
Pledge Agreement; provided, that the foregoing limitations shall not
-3-
apply to any claims against the Borrower for any loss, damage, cost, expense,
liability, claim or other obligation incurred by the Lender (including reasonable
attorney’s fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses) arising out of or in
connection with (A) fraud or intentional misrepresentation by the Borrower in
connection with the Loans, or (B) Borrower’s knowing and intentional failure to
perform its material obligations under the Loan Documents.
2. Conditions Precedent to Borrowing.
The obligation of Lender to make the Loan is subject to the satisfaction of the following
conditions precedent on or before the date hereof:
2.1 | Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of Borrower contained in Section 3 hereof and in the Pledge Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof. | |
2.2 | Performance; No Default. Borrower shall have performed and complied with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement required to be performed or complied with by it prior to or on the date hereof (including, without limitation, Borrower’s obligation to execute and deliver to Lender the Note), and, as of such date, no condition or event which constitutes a default in the performance of its obligations hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing. |
3. Representations and Warranties.
Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lender that:
3.1 | Organization; Powers. Borrower is a corporation which has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it was incorporated, with the corporate power and authority to own its properties and transact the business in which it is now engaged or in which it proposes to engage. Borrower is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except where the failure so to qualify could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby to which it is or will be a party and to borrow hereunder. | |
3.2 | Authorization; No Conflicts; No Defaults. The execution and delivery of this Agreement (including the execution and delivery of the Note issued hereunder), the performance of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement or under the Note issued hereunder, and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated are within Borrower’s organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary action on its part. This Agreement will constitute when executed and delivered, a valid and binding agreement of the Borrower, except as the same may be limited by Bankruptcy Exceptions (as defined in the Master Transaction Agreement). |
-4-
Except as expressly set forth in the Pledge Agreement or the Master Transaction Agreement, the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement will not (a) violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the termination of, or accelerate the performance required by, or result in a right of termination or acceleration of, or result in the creation of, any Lien (as defined in the Master Transaction Agreement), charge or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of Borrower, under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of (i) its organizational documents or (ii) any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, license, lease, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower may be bound, or to which Borrower or any of the properties or assets of Borrower may be subject, or (b) violate any applicable Law (as defined in the Master Transaction Agreement) applicable to Borrower or any of its properties or assets. |

So long as any indebtedness under this Agreement or the Note issued hereunder remains unpaid,
unless Lender and the Rights Holder (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) shall otherwise consent in
writing, and except as otherwise contemplated by the Pledge Agreement or the Master Transaction
Agreement, Borrower shall:
4.1 | Corporate Matters. Preserve and maintain its corporate existence and take all reasonable action to maintain all rights, privileges and franchises necessary to the normal conduct of its business, except for rights, privileges and franchises the loss of which would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, an AIG Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Master Transaction Agreement). | |
4.2 | Books and Records. Keep proper books of records and account relating to this Agreement in which full, true and correct entries in conformity with sound business practice and all requirements of law applicable to Borrower shall be made; and upon reasonable prior notice permit representatives or agents of Lender to examine any of its books and records relating to this Agreement at any reasonable times and as often as Lender may reasonably desire. | |

(a) if any portion of the principal amount of the Loan or any accrued and
unpaid interest thereon (i) is not paid when due under this Agreement or under the
Pledge Agreement whether at the due date thereof
-5-
or at a date fixed for prepayment thereof or by acceleration thereof or
otherwise and (ii) remains unpaid for ten (10) days after the date on which such
payment was due;
(b) if an Event of Default shall occur under the Pledge Agreement;
(c) if Borrower (i) takes any action or omits to take any action, in each
case, that materially breaches its covenants under Section 4 hereof and (ii) such
breach, if susceptible of cure, is not cured within ten (10) days after the earlier
of written notice to Borrower from Lender setting forth the details of such breach
and knowledge of such breach on the part of Borrower;
(d) if an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary petition
shall be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking (i) relief in respect
of Borrower or any Guarantor under the Pledge Agreement or of a substantial part of
the property or assets of Borrower or any Guarantor under the Pledge Agreement,
under Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended,

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter: (a) Lender or Lender’s agent may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement or the Pledge Agreement, or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand, as Lender or Lender’s agent may deem advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower under this Agreement, including, without limitation, declaring the Payoff Amount to be immediately due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loan so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued fees and all other liabilities of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Pledge Agreement; provided, however, that, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(c) hereof, the Payoff Amount shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Pledge Agreement; and (b) Lender or Lender’s agent may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Pledge Agreement against Borrower and any or all of the Designated Interests or Designated Cash Proceeds (each as defined in the Master Transaction Agreement and, collectively, the “Designated Collateral”), including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity. |
6. Miscellaneous.
6.1 | Entire Agreement; Amendments; Counterparts. This Agreement and the Note issued hereunder, and any other documents referred to herein or therein, contain the entire and only agreement between Lender and Borrower concerning the subject matter hereof, and any oral statements or representations or prior written matter with respect thereto not contained herein or therein shall have no force or effect. The provisions of this Agreement and the Note issued hereunder shall not be modified, amended or waived save in writing, executed by all parties hereto, with the written consent of the Rights Holder (as defined in the Pledge Agreement). This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each one of which will be deemed to be an original, and all of which together will constitute one and the same Agreement. | |
6.2 | Failure to Act Not a Waiver. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of either party to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or the Note issued hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any further exercise of such right, power or privilege or any exercise of any other right, power or privilege. | |
6.3 | Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the Note issued hereunder shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Lender and |
-7-
Borrower and their respective agents, successors and permitted assigns, except that, (a) Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer the Note issued hereunder or any of its obligations, rights or interests in or to this Agreement or the Note issued hereunder at any time without the prior written consent of Lender and the Rights Holder (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) and (b) other than as expressly provided in Section 7.10 of the Master Transaction Agreement, Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer the Note issued hereunder or any of its obligations, rights or interests in or to this Agreement or the Note issued hereunder without the prior written consent of Borrower.
