ARTICLEΒ IX
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Β
Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Β
The Administrative Agent shall also act as the βcollateral agentβ under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest created by the Security Documents for and on behalf of or on trust for) such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Obligors to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.Β In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as βcollateral agentβ (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this ArticleΒ for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this ArticleΒ including SectionΒ 10.03, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the βcollateral agentβ under the Loan Documents as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.Β Without limiting any other provision of this Article, each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into (and/or agree to any amendments to) from time to time (i)Β any Security Documents and (ii)Β intercreditor (including subordination) arrangements on behalf of the Lenders in respect of any Other Debt or Permitted Additional Indebtedness to the extent permitted or contemplated hereunder, in each case as the Administrative Agent shall determine to be appropriate and consistent with the provisions hereof.
Β
The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.
Β
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.Β Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a)Β the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b)Β the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders, and (c)Β except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.Β The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.Β The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i)Β any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan
Β
Β
Document, (ii)Β the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii)Β the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (iv)Β the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v)Β the satisfaction of any condition set forth in ArticleΒ V or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
Β
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person.Β The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.Β The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for an Obligor), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Β
The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.Β The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties.Β The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
Β
Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Borrower.Β Additionally, if the Lender then acting as the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender by virtue of clause (e)Β of the definition thereof, then the Administrative Agent may be removed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower (or only the Required Lenders, if a Default shall exist) upon 30 daysβ written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.Β Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders and the Borrower shall have the right, so long as no Default shall exist, to appoint a successor from among the Lenders.Β In the case of resignation by the Administrative Agent, if no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with a minimum capital and surplus of $500,000,000 and with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank.Β In the case of removal of the Administrative Agent as provided above, if no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower (or by the Required Lenders, if a Default shall exist) and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the Administrative Agent receives notice of removal, then the Borrower, so long as no Default shall exist, may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with a minimum capital and surplus of $500,000,000 and with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank.Β Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.Β The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.Β After the Administrative Agentβs resignation or removal
Β
Β
hereunder, the provisions of this ArticleΒ and SectionΒ 10.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.
Β
Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent 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.Β Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent 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 any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Β
Except as otherwise provided in SectionΒ 10.02(b)Β with respect to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Loan Documents, provided that, without the prior consent of each Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the collateral or terminate any Lien with respect thereto under the Security Agreement, except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien covering property that is the subject of either a Disposition of property permitted hereunder or a Disposition to which the Required Lenders have consented.Β Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Security Documents executed by the Obligors in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i)Β to comply with applicable local law, ruleΒ or regulation or advice of local counsel, (ii)Β to cure ambiguities, defects or manifest errors, (iii)Β to cause any such Security Documents to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and/or (iv)Β to give effect to the changes to any Security Document required by any Intercreditor Agreement.
Β
In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Obligor, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a)Β to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.03.Β Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
Β
Β
The Lenders irrevocably agree: (a)Β that any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document shall be automatically released (i)Β upon payment in full of all Obligations (other than obligations under Secured Hedging Agreements and contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable), (ii)Β at the time the property subject to such Lien is transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer made in compliance with the Loan Documents to any Person other than the Borrower or other Obligor (other than the Holding Company, except with respect to its pledge of the Capital Stock of the Borrower), (iii)Β subject to SectionΒ 10.02(b), if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required pursuant to SectionΒ 10.02(b)), (iv)Β if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; (b)Β to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property in respect of any purchase money Indebtedness (including Capital Lease Obligations) permitted by SectionΒ 7.01; and (c)Β that any Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under this Agreement if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder; provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Other Debt.Β Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Obligors in respect of) all interests retained by the Obligors, including the proceeds of any sale or other disposition, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.Β Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required pursuant to SectionΒ 10.02(b)) will confirm in writing the Administrative Agentβs authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement pursuant to this Article.Β In each case as specified herein, the Administrative Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrowerβs expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Obligor such documents as such Obligor may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents (including this Article).
Β
It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any law, ruleΒ or regulation of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction.Β It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future law, ruleΒ or regulation of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a βSupplemental Administrative Agentβ and collectively as βSupplemental Administrative Agentsβ).Β In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i)Β each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such
Β
Β
Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and (ii)Β the provisions of this ArticleΒ and of SectionΒ 10.03 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may require.Β Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower or any other Obligor be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Obligor to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent.Β In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent.
Β
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lead Arranger and Lead Bookrunner, the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, the Co-Senior Arrangers, the Co-Arrangers,Β the Co-Syndication Agents and the Co-Documentation Agents named on the cover pageΒ of this Agreement shall have no duties or responsibilities hereunder except in their respective capacity, if any, as a Lender.
