ARTICLE II
The Credits
SECTION 2.1. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Loans to the Borrowers from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender’s Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Loans.
SECTION 2.2. Loans and Borrowings. Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.
(a) Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(b) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 15 Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither Borrower shall be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.
SECTION 2.3. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, including to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e), not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(i) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;
(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;
(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and
(v) the location and number of the applicable Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.04.
If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.
SECTION 2.4. Funding of Borrowings. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such funds transferred to it available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.
(a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.
SECTION 2.5. Letters of Credit. General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) either Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, (ii) FCX may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than PTFI) and (iii) subject to Section 6.04(c) or Section 6.04(g) or, if applicable, Section 6.04(p) and to the last sentence of this paragraph, FCX may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Unrestricted Subsidiaries, in any case in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. The issuance of any Letter of Credit for the account of an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to constitute an Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to Section 6.04(c) or Section 6.04(g) or, if applicable, Section 6.04(p), as the case may be, in each case in the stated amount of such Letter of Credit.
(a) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), a Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $75,000,000, (ii) the Unrestricted Subsidiary LC Exposure shall not exceed $10,000,000 and (iii) the total Exposures shall not exceed the total Commitments. On and after the Initial Borrowing Availability Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement.
(b) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.
(c) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to either Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. On the Initial Borrowing Availability Date, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have granted to each Lender and each Lender shall have been deemed to have purchased from the Issuing Bank a participation in each Existing Letter of Credit in accordance with this paragraph.
(d) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrowers shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrowers prior to such time on such date, then not later than (i) 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day that the Borrowers receive such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrowers receive such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the Borrowers may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with a Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing. If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrowers, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.04 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from a Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.
(e) Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
(f) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.
(g) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.12(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.
(h) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
(i) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing or if the Borrowers are required to provide cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.10(b), on the Business Day that the Borrowers receive notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing not less than 51% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, (i) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to either Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Article VII or (ii) upon the occurrence of the circumstances described in Section 2.10(b). Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement, and the Borrowers hereby grant the Lenders a security interest in all funds and investments in such account to secure such obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing not less than 51% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.
SECTION 2.6. Interest Elections. Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.
(a) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower.
(b) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02 (including with respect to minimum amounts and borrowing multiples relating to any resulting Borrowing):
(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);
(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and
(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.
If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
(c) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request with respect to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.
(d) If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrowers, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
SECTION 2.7. Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Increase in Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.
(a) FCX may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) FCX shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of Loans and provision of cash collateral, in each case in accordance with Section 2.10(b), the aggregate Exposures (excluding the LC Exposure with respect to which cash collateral has been provided in accordance with Section 2.10(b)) would exceed the total Commitments.
(b) FCX shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section, at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election or reduction and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by FCX pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by FCX may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other financings, in which case such notice may be revoked by FCX (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with the amounts of their Commitments.
(c) The Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, executed by the Borrowers and one or more financial institutions (any such financial institution referred to in this Section being called an “Increasing Lender”), which may include any Lender, cause Commitments to be extended by the Increasing Lenders (or cause the Commitments of the Increasing Lenders that are already Lenders to be increased, as the case may be) (a “Commitment Increase”) in an amount for each Increasing Lender set forth in such notice, provided, however, that (a) the aggregate amount of all new Commitments and increases in existing Commitments pursuant to this paragraph during the term of this Agreement, together with the Commitments existing on the Effective Date, shall in no event exceed $350,000,000, (b) each Increasing Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), (c) each Increasing Lender already a party hereto shall deliver to the Administrative Agent confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to its increased Commitment and (d) each Increasing Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, (i) shall become a party to this Agreement by completing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a duly executed accession agreement in a form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (an “Accession Agreement”) and (ii) shall complete and deliver to the Administrative Agent a completed Administrative Questionnaire. New Commitments and increases in Commitments pursuant to this Section shall become effective on the date specified in the applicable notices delivered pursuant to this Section (each an “Increase Date”). Upon the effectiveness of any Accession Agreement to which any Increasing Lender not already a Lender hereunder is a party, such Increasing Lender shall thereafter be deemed to be a party to this Agreement and shall be entitled to all rights, benefits and privileges accorded a Lender hereunder and subject to all obligations of a Lender hereunder and Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the Commitment of such Increasing Lender as provided in such Accession Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of any increase pursuant to this Section in the Commitment of a Lender already a party hereto, Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the increased Commitment of such Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the aggregate Commitments (or in the Commitment of any Lender) shall become effective under this Section unless, on the applicable Increase Date, the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate, dated as of the effective date of such increase and executed by a Financial Officer of each Borrower, to the effect that the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.03 shall be satisfied (with all references in such paragraphs to a Borrowing being deemed to be references to such increase). On the applicable Increase Date of any extension of a new Commitment or increase of a Lender’s Commitment, each Increasing Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04 with respect to Loans made by such Increasing Lender (and Section 2.04 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of each Increasing Lender), (x) in the case of an Increasing Lender not already a party hereto, an amount equal to such Increasing Lender’s ratable portion of the Borrowings then outstanding and the portion of the LC Exposure funded by the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(d) (in each case calculated based on its Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) or (y) in the case of an Increasing Lender already a party hereto, an amount equal to the excess of (1) such Increasing Lender’s ratable portion of the Borrowings then outstanding and the portion of the LC Exposure funded by the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(d) (in each case calculated based on its Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) over (2) such Increasing Lender’s ratable portion of the Borrowings then outstanding and the portion of the LC Exposure funded by the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(d) (in each case calculated based on its Commitment (without giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments (without giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase)). After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds from each Increasing Lender, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds to the other Lenders in an amount to each other Lender such that the aggregate amount of Borrowings owing to each Lender and such Lender’s share of the portion of the LC Exposure funded by the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(d) after giving effect to such distribution equals such Lender’s ratable portion of the Borrowings then outstanding and the portion of the LC Exposure funded by the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(d) (calculated based on its Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase). At the request of either Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Increasing Lender, each of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Increasing Lender shall enter into any amendments to the Security Documents or take any other actions for the purpose of naming the Increasing Lender as a Secured Party thereunder.
SECTION 2.8. Repayment of Loans. Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent on the Maturity Date, for the account of each Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan of such Lender.
SECTION 2.9. Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
(a) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.
(b) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of either Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(c) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).
SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to the requirements of this Section and to the making of any payment required under Section 2.15.
(a) In the event and on each occasion on or prior to the Maturity Date that the sum of the Exposures exceeds the total Commitments, the Borrowers shall prepay Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that if no Borrowings are outstanding and the LC Exposure exceeds the total Commitments, the Borrowers shall provide cash collateral in an aggregate amount equal to such excess in accordance with Section 2.05(j).
(b) The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07(c), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07(c). Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.
SECTION 2.11. Fees. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, a Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender.
(a) The Borrowers agree to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate as interest on Eurodollar Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the Issuing Bank on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate (and, if later, the date on which there ceases to be any Exposure) and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
(b) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.
(c) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
SECTION 2.12. Interest. The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.
(a) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by either Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.
(c) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the termination of the Commitments), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.
(d) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:
(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or
(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.
SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs. If any Change in Law shall:
(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in Eurodollar Reserve Requirements) or the Issuing Bank; or
(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), in each case by or in an amount which such Lender in its sole judgment deems material in the context of this Agreement and its Loans or participations in Letters of Credit hereunder, then the relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) If any Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers at any time to the effect that Eurodollar Reserve Requirements are, or are scheduled to become, effective and that such Lender is or will be generally subject to such Eurodollar Reserve Requirements as a result of which such Lender will incur additional costs, then such Lender shall, for each day from the later of the date of such notice and the date on which such Eurodollar Reserve Requirements become effective, be entitled to additional interest on each Eurodollar Loan made by it at a rate per annum determined for such day (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 100th of 1%) equal to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the LIBO Rate for such Eurodollar Loan from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such LIBO Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the then-applicable Eurodollar Reserve Requirements. Such additional interest will be payable in arrears to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Lender, on each Interest Payment Date relating to such Eurodollar Loan and on any other date when interest is required to be paid hereunder with respect to such Loan. Any Lender which gives notice under this paragraph (b) shall promptly withdraw such notice (by written notice of withdrawal given to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers) in the event Eurodollar Reserve Requirements cease to apply to it or the circumstances giving rise to such notice otherwise cease to exist.
(c) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), by an amount which such Lender in its sole judgment deems to be material in the context of this Agreement and its Loans, Commitments and participations in Letters of Credit hereunder, then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(d) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (c) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers (or the Borrower in respect of the Loan or Letter of Credit, if any, to which such compensation request is attributable) shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(c) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The relevant Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
SECTION 2.16. Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of either Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if either Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(a) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(b) Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other 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 a Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by either Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(d) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which either Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Foreign Lender has received written notice from such Borrower advising it of the availability of such exemption or reduction and supplying all applicable documentation.
(e) PTFI shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority when due all Indonesian Taxes in accordance with applicable law.
(f) PTFI shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the FI Trustee, each Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) and the Issuing Bank against, and shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, the FI Trustee, each Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) and the Issuing Bank upon demand for, the full amount of any Indonesian Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, the FI Trustee, such Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) or the Issuing Bank, and any loss, liability, claim or expense (including interest, penalties, fines, surcharges and legal fees) which the Administrative Agent, the FI Trustee, such Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) or the Issuing Bank may incur at any time arising out of or in connection with any failure of PTFI to make any payments of Indonesian Taxes, whether or not such Indonesian Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, however, that no permitted assignee or Participant of any Lender shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under this Section than such Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights assigned, participated or otherwise transferred unless such assignment, participation or transfer shall have been made at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to PTFI by a Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), the FI Trustee, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent on its behalf, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), the FI Trustee, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor.
(g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph (k) below, all payments on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans made to PTFI, any promissory notes of PTFI issued hereunder and all other amounts payable by PTFI to or for the account of any Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent hereunder (including amounts payable under Section 2.16(f) or 2.16(g)) or to or for the FI Trustee under the FI Security Documents and to any of them under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction by reason of any Indonesian Taxes all of which shall be for the account of and paid in full when due by PTFI. In the event that PTFI is required by any applicable law, decree or regulation to deduct or withhold Indonesian Taxes from any amounts payable on, under or in respect of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any promissory note issued hereunder, PTFI shall make the required deduction or withholding, promptly pay the amount of such Indonesian Taxes to the appropriate taxing authorities and pay to the Administrative Agent such additional amounts as may be required, after the deduction or withholding of Indonesian Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), to enable each Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee or the Administrative Agent to receive from PTFI on the due date thereof, an amount equal to the full amount stated to be payable to such Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any other applicable Loan Document or any promissory note issued hereunder.
(h) Without in any way affecting PTFI’s obligations under the other provisions of this Section 2.16, PTFI shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the originals or certified copies of all tax receipts issued by the relevant taxing authority in respect of each payment, deduction or withholding of Indonesian Taxes required to be made by applicable laws or regulations, as soon as practicable and in any event not later than 90 days after the date on which such payment is made, and PTFI shall, at the request of any Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee or the Administrative Agent, promptly furnish to such Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee or the Administrative Agent any other information, documents and receipts that such Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee or the Administrative Agent may require to establish to its satisfaction that full and timely payment has been made of all Indonesian Taxes required to be paid hereunder.
(i) PTFI will notify the Lenders (through the Administrative Agent) promptly upon becoming aware of the application or imposition, or scheduled future application or imposition, of Indonesian Taxes; and each Lender (if not theretofore notified by PTFI) will notify PTFI of any such application or imposition which becomes known to its officers then supervising the Loans of such Lender hereunder as part of their normal duties, and of any change of its lending office or establishment or closing of a branch in Indonesia by such Lender which would give rise to the application or imposition of Indonesian Taxes.
(j) Each Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) having its principal office and applicable lending office outside of Indonesia (a “Non-Indonesian Lender”) shall use reasonably diligent efforts to deliver to PTFI appropriate forms, duly completed, evidencing such Non-Indonesian Lender’s entitlement (if any) under any applicable tax treaty to a reduced rate of withholding of Indonesian Taxes with respect to payments of interest on Loans of such Non-Indonesian Lender (which, in the case of any Non-Indonesian Lender that is organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof including the District of Columbia, shall be Internal Revenue Service Form 6166 (or any successor form thereto)) on or prior to the 90th day following (A) the date hereof or (B) in the case of any such Non-Indonesian Lender that is a permitted assignee or Participant, the date such Non-Indonesian Lender becomes a permitted assignee or Participant. Following delivery by a Non-Indonesian Lender to PTFI of the appropriate form referenced in the preceding sentence of this Section 2.16(k), duly completed, PTFI is authorized to file such form with the appropriate Indonesian taxing authorities in order to obtain a reduced rate of withholding of Indonesian Taxes with respect to payments of interest on Loans of such Non-Indonesian Lender.
Each Non-Indonesian Lender shall use reasonably diligent efforts to deliver to PTFI such certificates, forms or other documents as may be necessary under any other provision of applicable law (including any amendment, modification or supplement to Form 6166 or such analogous form referred to in the second preceding sentence) to reduce the withholding rate of Indonesian Taxes with respect to payments of interest on Loans of such Non-Indonesian Lender on or by the 90th day following the date on which PTFI shall have delivered to such Non-Indonesian Lender written notice of the existence of such provision of applicable law together with a copy thereof (accompanied by a verified English translation if such provision of applicable law is not in English); provided, however, that such Non-Indonesian Lender shall not be required to deliver any such certificate, form or other document that would, in the reasonable judgment of such Non-Indonesian Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Non-Indonesian Lender; and provided further that such Non-Indonesian Lender shall have no obligation to deliver any such certificates, forms or other documents that it is not legally able to deliver or with respect to information deemed by such Non-Indonesian Lender to be confidential or proprietary.
If any Non-Indonesian Lender shall have failed to comply with the requirements of this Section 2.16(k) and the effect of such failure is to cause the rate of withholding of Indonesian Taxes with respect to payments of interest on such Non-Indonesian Lender’s Loans to be higher than that which would have been applicable had such certificates, forms or other documents been delivered to the applicable Indonesian taxing authority, then any withholding tax indemnity payment to any such Non-Indonesian Lender by PTFI pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be computed as if such certificates, forms or other documents had been so delivered.
(k) Nothing contained in this Section 2.16 shall require the Administrative Agent, the FI Trustee, the Issuing Bank or any Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) to make available any of its income tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.
SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursements of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof), 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars.
(a) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.
(b) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by either Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to such Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against either Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.
(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(b), 2.17(d) or 10.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof), or if either Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof), or if either Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each 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 Agent.
No Agent shall commence any litigation in the name of, or on behalf of, any Lender without the prior consent of such Lender; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Agent commences any litigation at the direction of the Required Lenders, any Lender that shall not have consented thereto shall remain liable for its pro rata share of the costs and expenses of such Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.
Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor as provided in this paragraph, any Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, Security Agent, JAA Security Agent or Documentation Agent, as the case may be. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, Security Agent, JAA Security Agent or Documentation Agent, as the case may be, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent, Security Agent, JAA Security Agent or Documentation Agent, as the case may be, hereunder by a successor, such successor Administrative Agent, Security Agent, JAA Security Agent or Documentation Agent, as applicable, shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After any Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as an Agent.
Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
The obligations of the Administrative Agent, Security Agent, JAA Security Agent, the FI Trustee and the Documentation Agent shall be separate and several and neither of them shall be responsible or liable for the acts or omissions of the other, except, to the extent that any such Agent serves in more than one agency capacity, such Agent shall be responsible for the acts and omissions relating to each such agency function.
Without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders but subject to Section 10.02(b), the Administrative Agent, the Security Agent and the JAA Security Agent will not, except as contemplated by the following paragraph, consent to any modification, supplement or waiver of the FI Intercreditor Agreement, the Lender Security Documents, the FI Trust Agreement, the Operator Replacement Agreement or the Second Amended and Restated JAA Fiduciary Transfer and the FI Trustee will not consent to any modification, supplement or waiver of the FI Trust Agreement, the Operator Replacement Agreement, the Second Amended and Restated Surat Kuasa or the Second Amended and Restated Fiduciary Assignment.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII, the Administrative Agent will, at the request of FCX or PTFI, instruct the FI Trustee, the Security Agent and/or the JAA Security Agent, as applicable, to release (or to subordinate such interest) from the FI Trust Agreement and/or the FCX Pledge Agreements and/or the Lender Security Agreement and/or the other FI Security Documents, as applicable (and enter into an amendment to the FI Trust Agreement and/or the FCX Pledge Agreements and/or the Lender Security Agreement and/or the other FI Security Documents and execute such other instruments as may be necessary in connection therewith), any interest of the FI Trustee, the Security Agent and/or the JAA Security Agent, as applicable, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a certificate from a Financial Officer of PTFI specifying the asset to be released and the related transaction and certifying that after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall occur or be continuing, specific assets (which may either be released from the Lien of the FI Security Documents or the FCX Pledge Agreements or excluded from the after-acquired property clauses of the FI Security Documents) (x) as required to be released to provide additional collateral for the Caterpillar Obligations, as a result of decreases in the value of the Caterpillar Assets, but not in excess of $10,000,000 (valued as provided in the Caterpillar Documents) in the aggregate for all such additional collateral provided during the term of the Caterpillar Obligations and (y) to allow sales, transfers or other dispositions, secured financings, capital leases and sale leaseback transactions and pledges of assets expressly permitted hereby. In addition, upon consummation of a PT Kencana Financing, to the extent requested in a certificate from a Financial Officer of PTFI, which certificate shall certify that after giving effect to the release of such Guarantee no Default or Event of Default shall occur or be continuing, PT Kencana and/or PT Kencana, as applicable, shall automatically be released from its Guarantee. It is understood and agreed that releases in connection with this paragraph shall not require any further consent of the Required Lenders.
The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to, and to instruct the FI Trustee and the JAA Security Agent to, enter into or consent to an amendment to the Participation Agreement or other RTZ Documents permitting PTFI to incur Indebtedness of the type permitted by Section 6.01(a)(iv) hereof without the necessity of the holders of such Indebtedness becoming party to the Side Letter.

As consideration for the Lenders’ obligations to lend to FCX hereunder, PTFI hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the due and punctual payment of (i) the principal of and interest (including interest accruing during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding) on each Loan to FCX when and as due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by notice of prepayment or otherwise, (ii) each payment required to be made by FCX under this Agreement in respect of any Letter of Credit, when and as due, including payments in respect of reimbursement of disbursements, interest thereon, and any obligation to provide cash collateral, including in respect of fees, costs, expenses and indemnities (including any monetary obligations incurred during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding) (iii) all other monetary obligations of FCX to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, the Agents and the FI Trustee under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) all amounts owing by FCX pursuant to any Permitted Secured Hedge with FCX, (v) all obligations owed from time to time by FCX to JPMCB or its Affiliates in respect of (A) cash management services and (B) any Purchasing Card Program, in each case including obligations in respect of overdrafts, temporary advances, interest and fees, and (vi) all other Obligations of FCX (collectively, the “FCX Obligations”, and together with the PTFI Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each of FCX and PTFI further agrees that the PTFI Obligations or the FCX Obligations, as the case may be, may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any such PTFI Obligation or FCX Obligation, as applicable.
FCX waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to PTFI of any of the PTFI Obligations, and PTFI waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to FCX of any of the FCX Obligations, and each Borrower also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of FCX and PTFI under this Article IX shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Lender, any Agent or the FI Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against PTFI or FCX, respectively, under the provisions of this Agreement or otherwise; (b) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any guarantee or any other agreement; (c) the release of any security held by any Lender, any Agent or the FI Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed by it or any of them or (d) the failure of any Lender, any Agent or the FI Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the PTFI Obligations or FCX Obligations, respectively.
Each of FCX and PTFI further agree that its guarantee constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Lender, any Agent or the FI Trustee to any security held for payment of the PTFI Obligations or of the FCX Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of such Lender in favor of PTFI or FCX, as applicable, or any other Person.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of FCX or PTFI under this Article IX shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Lender, any Agent or the FI Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement, any guarantee or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, wilful or otherwise, in the performance of the PTFI Obligations or the FCX Obligations, respectively, or by any other act or omission which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of FCX or PTFI, or otherwise operate as a discharge of FCX or PTFI as a matter of law or equity.
Each of FCX and PTFI further agree that its guarantee 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 or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation guaranteed by it (including, without limitation, any payment pursuant to this guarantee) is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Lender, any Agent or the FI Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of PTFI or FCX, respectively, or otherwise.
In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Lender, any Agent or the FI Trustee may have at law or in equity against FCX or PTFI by virtue hereof, upon the failure of FCX or PTFI, respectively, to pay any of the PTFI Obligations or the FCX Obligations, respectively, when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each of FCX and PTFI hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by any Lender, any Agent or the FI Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders, the Agents or the FI Trustee, as appropriate, in cash the amount of such unpaid PTFI Obligations or FCX Obligations, as the case may be, and at such time as all such PTFI Obligations or FCX Obligations owing to such Lender, such Agent, or the FI Trustee as applicable, have been indefeasibly paid in full and its Commitment terminated, such Lender shall, in a reasonable manner, assign the amount of such PTFI Obligations or FCX Obligations, as applicable, owed to it and paid by FCX or PTFI pursuant to this guarantee to FCX or PTFI, such assignment to be pro tanto to the extent to which the PTFI Obligations or FCX Obligations in question were discharged by FCX of PTFI, as applicable, or make such other disposition thereof as FCX or PTFI shall direct (all without recourse to such Lender, such Agent or the FI Trustee, as applicable, and without any representation or warranty by such Lender, such Agent or the FI Trustee, as applicable).
Upon payment by FCX or PTFI of any sums to a Lender, an Agent or the FI Trustee as provided above in this Article IX, all rights of FCX against PTFI or of PTFI against FCX arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise (a) shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all the PTFI Obligations or FCX Obligations, as applicable, to the Lenders, the Agents and the FI Trustee and (b) shall not be exercised by FCX or PTFI, as applicable, prior to indefeasible payment in full of all Loans, the indefeasable reimbursement of all LC Disbursements, the termination of all Commitments and the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PTFI hereby waives all rights of subrogation against FCX arising as a result of any payment by PTFI under this Article IX including, without limitation, all rights to any proceeds from a liquidation of FCX.

SECTION 10.2. Waivers; Amendments. No failure or delay by any Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the FI Trustee in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the FI Trustee hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the FI Trustee may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
(a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Agents and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto and, if a party thereto, the FI Trustee or the FI Security Agent, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan, or the required date of reimbursement of any LC Disbursement under Section 2.05, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) release either FCX or PTFI from its Guarantee hereunder or limit its liability in respect of such Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender or (vii) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent, the FI Trustee or the Issuing Bank without the prior written consent of such Agent, the FI Trustee or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrowers, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent if (i) by the terms of such agreement any remaining Commitment and/or Exposure 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.
SECTION 10.3. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. Each Borrower agrees, jointly and severally, to pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Agent and its Affiliates and the FI Trustee, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for each Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, the FI Trustee, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Agent, the FI Trustee, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.
(a) Each Borrower agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and the FI Trustee, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank 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 actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by either Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to either Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, 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 any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
(b) To the extent that either Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Agent, the Issuing Bank or the FI Trustee under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the applicable Agent, the Issuing Bank or the FI Trustee, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent, the Issuing Bank or the FI Trustee as the case may be, in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Exposures and unused Commitments at the time. If any action, suit or proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against any Lender, any Agent, the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee or other Person indemnified or intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 10.03, PTFI and FCX, to the extent and in the manner directed by such indemnified party, will resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel designated by PTFI and FCX (which counsel shall be satisfactory to such Lender, such Agent, the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee or other Person indemnified or intended to be indemnified). If PTFI or FCX shall fail to do any act or thing which it has covenanted to do hereunder or any representation or warranty on the part of PTFI or FCX contained in this Agreement shall be breached, any Lender, the FI Trustee, the Issuing Bank or any Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend its funds for such purpose. Any and all amounts so expended by any Lender, the FI Trustee, the Issuing Bank or any Agent shall be repayable to it by PTFI and FCX immediately upon such Person’s demand therefor.
(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither Borrower shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.
(d) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor.
SECTION 10.4. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) neither Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by either Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(a) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or LC Exposure and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that the Borrowers may withhold their consent to an assignment to a Lender that would, as of the effective date of such assignment, be entitled to claim compensation under Section 2.14 which the assignor Lender would not be entitled to claim as of that date) of:
(A) the Borrowers; provided that no consent of either Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and
(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of a Loan, Commitment or LC Exposure to an assignee that is a Lender with a Loan, Commitment or LC Exposure immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment.
(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of either Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing;
(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;
(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, payable by either the assignee or the assignor; and
(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
For purposes of this Section 10.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:
“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.
(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04 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 (c) of this Section.
(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee and the Lenders may 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 notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Agent, the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
(vi) At the request of either Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the assignee under an Assignment and Assumption, each of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such assignee shall enter into any amendments to the Security Documents or take any other actions for the purpose of naming such assignee as a Secured Party thereunder.
(b) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or LC Exposure and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) such Lender will continue to give prompt attention to and process (including, if required, through discussions with Participants) requests for waivers or amendments hereunder. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.
(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender.
(c) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
SECTION 10.5. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, the FI Trustee or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
SECTION 10.6. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to any Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
(a) All fees and interest accruing under the Existing Credit Agreement at any time prior to the Effective Date shall accrue at the rates and be payable at the times specified therein; on and after the Effective Date, fees and interest shall accrue and be payable in respect of the indebtedness and commitments under such agreements as specified in this Agreement, pursuant to which each such agreement has been amended and restated.
SECTION 10.7. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 10.8. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of either Borrower against any of and all the obligations of either Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.
SECTION 10.9. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Sovereign Immunity. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.
(a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or the FI Trustee may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against either Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(d) To the extent that PTFI may now or hereafter be entitled, in any jurisdiction in which judicial proceedings may at any time be commenced with respect to any Loan Document, to claim for itself or its property, assets or revenues any immunity (whether by reason of sovereignty or otherwise) from suit, jurisdiction of any court, attachment prior to judgment, setoff, execution of a judgment or from any other legal process or remedy, and to the extent that there may be attributed to PTFI such an immunity (whether or not claimed), PTFI hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity.
SECTION 10.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
SECTION 10.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
SECTION 10.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Agents, the FI Trustee, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), 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, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, 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 actual or prospective assignee of or Participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to either Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrowers or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than either Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from or on behalf of either Borrower relating to either Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to any Agent, the Issuing Bank, the FI Trustee or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by either Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Lender (and any employee, representative or other agent of such Lender) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, such Lender’s U.S. federal income tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby relating to such Lender and all materials of any kind (including opinions and tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment or tax structure may be made to the extent nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.
SECTION 10.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
SECTION 10.14. Judgment Currency. The specification of payment in dollars and in New York City, New York, with respect to amounts payable to any Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), any Agent or the FI Trustee hereunder and under the other Loan Documents is of the essence, and dollars shall be the currency of account in all events. The payment obligations of PTFI or FCX under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not be discharged by an amount paid in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to dollars and transfer to New York City under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of dollars in New York City due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in dollars into another currency (the “second currency”), the rate of exchange which shall be applied shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase dollars with the second currency on the Business Day next preceding that on which such judgment is rendered. The obligation of PTFI and FCX in respect of any such sum due from it to any Agent, the FI Trustee or any Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) hereunder or under any other Loan Document (an “entitled person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such entitled person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder or under any other Loan Document in the second currency such entitled person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase in the free market and transfer to New York City dollars with the amount of the second currency so adjudged to be due; and PTFI and FCX hereby agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, jointly and severally to indemnify such entitled person against, and to pay such entitled person on demand, in dollars in New York City, the difference between the sum originally due to such entitled person in Dollars and the amount of dollars so purchased and transferred.
SECTION 10.15. Joint and Several Obligations. Whenever in this Agreement or any other Loan Document any payment obligation or other obligation is expressed as an obligation of the Borrowers, each of the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for the full payment and performance of such obligation.
SECTION 10.16. RTZ Transactions. PTFI hereby (i) appoints the Administrative Agent to be the Operator Selection Representative for all purposes of the FI Trust Agreement, the Operator Replacement Agreement and the Second Amended and Restated Surat Kuasa and (ii) irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, in addition to any other remedy available hereunder or under any other Loan Document, remove PTFI as Operator under the Contract of Work and appoint a replacement Operator, which shall be PT-Rio Tinto Indonesia or an Affiliate of PT-Rio Tinto Indonesia designated by PT-Rio Tinto Indonesia if PT-Rio Tinto Indonesia timely elects to exercise its designation rights provided in Section 2(a) of the Operator Replacement Agreement and meets the other conditions to such designation right set forth in such Section 2(a). PTFI also irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that the Administrative Agent, acting as the Operator Selection Representative under the FI Trust Agreement, the Operator Replacement Agreement and the Second Amended and Restated Surat Kuasa, shall also have the right to designate a successor Operator under the circumstances provided in Section 2(b) of the Operator Replacement Agreement. PTFI further agrees that it will not appoint any other Operator Selection Representative other than the Administrative Agent (or, except as provided to PT-Rio Tinto Indonesia in the Participation Agreement, grant any other Person the right to remove PTFI (or any successor operator for the Project) as Operator under any circumstances) and that it will not approve or enter into any management agreement with a successor Operator appointed under the Operator Replacement Agreement unless and until the Administrative Agent has approved the terms of such management agreement. PTFI also agrees that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to exercise PTFI’s rights under the Participation Agreement (including the financial and accounting procedures) referred to in Section 6(c) of the FI Intercreditor Agreement to the exclusion of PTFI after the occurrence of an Event of Default, in addition to the other rights and remedies available to the Agents and the Lenders under the Loan Documents and applicable law. Each of the Agents, the Lenders, PTFI and FCX acknowledge that the FI Trust Agreement will not terminate prior to termination of the Participation Agreement.
