On or prior to June 14, 2012, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent and the Lender an opinion of Xxxxx Lord Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP (or other counsel acceptable to the Agent and the Lender), in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and the Lender, concluding that, when taking into consideration the existence and ongoing issuance of Life Notes under the Note Issuance and Security Agreement, none of the GWG Parties is an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act Opinion”).
Notwithstanding any provision of the Credit Agreement to the contrary, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which the 1940 Act Opinion is delivered, (ii) the date on which any Interim Funding Trigger Event (as defined below) occurs or (iii) December 14, 2011, the Borrowers may not borrow, and the Lender shall not be required to make, any Advances under the Credit Agreement the proceeds of which shall be used to acquire Assets except for Advances in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement that in the aggregate for such period than do not exceed $30,000,000.
For purposes of the foregoing, “Interim Funding Trigger Event” shall mean any of the following:
(i) GWG fails to file a registration statement for the Life Notes (the “Life Notes Registration Statement”) pursuant to Section 5 of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, fails to deliver a courtesy copy of the Life Notes Registration Statement to the Division of Investment Management of the United States Securities and Exchange
15
Commission (the “SEC”), or fails to deliver to the Agent a copy of the Life Notes Registration Statement, together with a copy of written correspondence evidencing delivery of the Life Notes Registration Statement to the Division of Investment Management of the SEC, in each case on or prior to June 14, 2011;
(ii) GWG withdraws its filing of the Life Notes Registration Statement; or
(iii) any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law, rule or regulation occurs, or any GWG Party receives a comment letter or other correspondence (written or oral) from the SEC or any other Governmental Authority, in each case the result of which is that it reasonably appears that the SEC or such other Governmental Authority are of the view that one or more GWG Parties would be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 when considering the Life Note program as proposed in the Life Notes Registration Statement.
If the 1940 Act Opinion has not been delivered to the Agent and the Lender on or prior to December 14, 2011, notwithstanding any provision of the Credit Agreement to the contrary, the Borrowers may not borrow, and the Lender shall not be required to make, any Advances under the Credit Agreement the proceeds of which shall be used to acquire Assets on or after such date, unless and until the 1940 Act Opinion is delivered in accordance with Section 4.1 above.
The provisions of Sections 4.2 through 4.4 shall not limit the Borrowers’ ability to borrow Advances the proceeds of which shall be used to either (A) fund payments of premium due under a Purchased Policy or a Policy securing a Defaulted Asset included in the Collateral or (b) make periodic payments of Interest and Facility Fees due and payable under the Credit Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement.
