ARTICLE V
AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
Until the commitments of the Banks under Section 2.01 hereof
to make Loans have expired or been terminated and the principal of and interest
on each Loan and all fees payable hereunder shall have been paid in full, the
Borrowers covenant and agree with the Banks that:
5.01. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OTHER INFORMATION.
Each Borrower will furnish to the Agent and each Bank:
(a) within 135 days after the end of each fiscal year of such
Borrower (but in the case of XL Capital, within 100 days after the end of each
fiscal year of XL Capital), the audited consolidated balance sheet and related
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows of such Borrower
and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the end of and for such year, setting
forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year
(if such figures were already produced for such corresponding period or periods)
(it being understood that delivery to the Banks of XL Capital's Report on Form
10-K filed with the SEC shall satisfy the financial statement delivery
requirements of this paragraph (a) to deliver the annual financial statements of
XL Capital so long as the financial information required to be contained in such
Report is substantially the same as the financial information required under
this paragraph (a)), all reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP or other
independent public accountants of recognized national standing (without a "going
concern" or like qualification or exception and without any qualification or
exception as to the scope of such audit) to the effect that such consolidated
financial statements present fairly in all material respects the financial
condition and results of operations of such Borrower and its consolidated
Subsidiaries on
a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP or (in the case of XL Insurance and
XL Re) SAP, as the case may be, consistently applied;
(b) within 60 days after the end of each of the first three
fiscal quarters of each fiscal year of such Borrower, the consolidated balance
sheet and related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows
of such Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the end of and for such
fiscal quarter and the then elapsed portion of the fiscal year, setting forth in
each case in comparative form the figures for (or, in the case of the balance
sheet, as of the end of) the corresponding period or periods of the previous
fiscal year (if such figures were already produced for such corresponding period
or periods), all certified by a Financial Officer of such Borrower as presenting
fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of
operations of such Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis in accordance with GAAP or (in the case of XL Insurance and XL Re) SAP, as
the case may be, consistently applied, subject to normal year-end audit
adjustments and the absence of footnotes (it being understood that delivery to
the Banks of XL Capital's Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC shall satisfy
the financial statement delivery requirements of this paragraph (b) to deliver
the quarterly financial statements of XL Capital so long as the financial
information required to be contained in such Report is substantially the same as
the financial information required under this paragraph (b));
(c) concurrently with any delivery of financial statements
under clause (a) or (b) of this Section, a certificate signed on behalf of each
Borrower by a Financial Officer (i) certifying as to whether a Default has
occurred and, if a Default has occurred, specifying the details thereof and any
action taken or proposed to be taken with respect thereto, (ii) setting forth
reasonably detailed calculations demonstrating compliance with Sections 6.03,
6.05, 6.06 and 6.07 and (iii) stating whether any change in GAAP or (in the case
of XL
-2-
Insurance and XL Re) SAP or in the application thereof has occurred since
the date of the audited financial statements referred to in Section 3.03 and, if
any such change has occurred, specifying the effect of such change on the
financial statements accompanying such certificate;
(d) concurrently with any delivery of financial statements
under clause (a) of this Section, a certificate of the accounting firm that
reported on such financial statements stating whether they obtained knowledge
during the course of their examination of such financial statements of any
Default (which certificate may be limited to the extent required by accounting
rules or guidelines);
(e) promptly after the same become publicly available, copies
of all periodic and other reports, proxy statements and other materials filed by
such Borrower or any of its respective Subsidiaries with the SEC, or any
Official Body succeeding to any or all of the functions of the SEC, or with any
U.S. or other securities exchange, or distributed by such Borrower to its
shareholders generally, as the case may be;
(f) concurrently with any delivery of financial statements
under clause (a) or (b) of this Section, a certificate of a Financial Officer of
XL Capital, setting forth on a consolidated basis for XL Capital and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as of the end of the fiscal year or quarter to which
such certificate relates (i) the aggregate book value of assets which are
subject to Liens permitted under Section 6.03(g) and the aggregate book value of
liabilities which are subject to Liens permitted under Section 6.03(g) (it being
understood that the reports required by paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section
shall satisfy the requirement of this clause (i) of this paragraph (f) if such
reports set forth separately, in accordance with GAAP, line items corresponding
to such aggregate book values) and (ii) a calculation showing the portion of
each of such aggregate amounts which portion is attributable to transactions
among wholly-owned Subsidiaries of XL Capital; and
-3-
(g) promptly following any request therefor, such other
information regarding the operations, business affairs and financial condition
of XL Capital or any of its Subsidiaries, or compliance with the terms of this
Agreement, as the Agent or any Bank may reasonably request.
5.02. NOTICES OF MATERIAL EVENTS. Each Borrower will furnish
to the Agent and each Bank prompt written notice of the following:
(a) the occurrence of any Default; and
(b) any event or condition constituting, or which could
reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.
Each notice delivered under this Section shall be accompanied by a statement of
a Financial Officer or other executive officer of the relevant Borrower setting
forth the details of the event or development requiring such notice and any
action taken or proposed to be taken by such Borrower with respect thereto.
5.03. PRESERVATION OF EXISTENCE AND FRANCHISES. Each Borrower
will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain its corporate
existence and its material rights and franchises in full force and effect in its
jurisdiction of incorporation; PROVIDED that the foregoing shall not prohibit
any merger or consolidation permitted under Section 6.01. Each Borrower will,
and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, qualify and remain qualified as a
foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which failure to receive or retain
such qualification would have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.04. INSURANCE. Each Borrower will, and will cause each of
its Subsidiaries to, maintain with financially sound and reputable insurers,
insurance with respect to its properties in such amounts as is customary in the
case of corporations engaged
-4-
in the same or similar businesses having similar properties similarly situated.
5.05. MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES. Each Borrower will, and will
cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain or cause to be maintained in good
repair, working order and condition the properties now or hereafter owned,
leased or otherwise possessed by and used or useful in its business and will
make or cause to be made all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements
and improvements thereto so that the business carried on in connection therewith
may be properly conducted at all times except if the failure to do so would not
have a Material Adverse Effect; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the foregoing shall not
impose on such Borrower or any Subsidiary of such Borrower any obligation in
respect of any property leased by such Borrower or such Subsidiary in addition
to such Borrower's obligations under the applicable document creating such
Borrower's or such Subsidiary's lease or tenancy.
5.06. PAYMENT OF TAXES AND OTHER POTENTIAL CHARGES AND
PRIORITY CLAIMS; PAYMENT OF OTHER CURRENT LIABILITIES. Each Borrower will, and
will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay or discharge:
(a) on or prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto,
all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges or levies imposed upon it
or any of its properties or income;
(b) on or prior to the date when due, all lawful claims of
materialmen, mechanics, carriers, warehousemen, landlords and other like Persons
which, if unpaid, might result in the creation of a Lien upon any such property;
and
(c) on or prior to the date when due, all other lawful claims
which, if unpaid, might result in the creation of a Lien upon any such property
(other than Liens not forbidden by Section 6.03) or which, if unpaid, might give
rise to a claim entitled to priority over general creditors of such Borrower in
any proceeding under the Bermuda Companies Law or Bermuda Insurance
-5-
Law, or any insolvency proceeding, liquidation, receivership, rehabilitation,
dissolution or winding-up involving such Borrower or such Subsidiary;
PROVIDED that, unless and until foreclosure, distraint, levy, sale or similar
proceedings shall have been commenced, such Borrower need not pay or discharge
any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim so long as the validity thereof
is contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted
and so long as such reserves or other appropriate provisions as may be required
by GAAP or SAP, as the case may be, shall have been made therefor and so long as
such failure to pay or discharge does not have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.07. FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING PRACTICES. Such Borrower will, and
will cause each of its consolidated Subsidiaries to, make and keep books,
records and accounts which, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect
its transactions and dispositions of its assets and maintain a system of
internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements required under Section 5.01 in conformity with GAAP and SAP, as
applicable, and to maintain accountability for assets.
5.08. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS. Each Borrower will, and
will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all applicable Laws
(including but not limited to the Bermuda Companies Law and Bermuda Insurance
Laws) in all respects; PROVIDED that such Borrower or any Subsidiary of such
Borrower will not be deemed to be in violation of this Section as a result of
any failure to comply with any such Law which would not (i) result in fines,
penalties, injunctive relief or other civil or criminal liabilities which, in
the aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) otherwise impair the
ability of such Borrower to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
-6-
5.09. USE OF PROCEEDS. Each Borrower will use the proceeds
of all Loans for its general corporate purposes (which may include funding
acquisitions, paying dividends and repurchasing securities).
5.10. CONTINUATION OF AND CHANGE IN BUSINESSES. Each Borrower
and its Subsidiaries will continue to engage in substantially the same business
or businesses it engaged in (or proposes to engage in) on the date of this
Agreement and businesses related or incidental thereto.
5.11. VISITATION. Each Borrower will permit such Persons as
any Bank may reasonably designate to visit and inspect any of the properties of
such Borrower, to discuss its affairs with its financial management, and provide
such other information relating to the business and financial condition of such
Borrower at such times as such Bank may reasonably request. Each Borrower hereby
authorizes its financial management to discuss with any Bank the affairs of such
Borrower.

in Schedule 6.07, (ii) transactions among the Borrowers and their wholly-owned
Subsidiaries and (iii) transactions with Affiliates in good faith in the
