BACKGROUND
A. The parties hereto are parties to that certain Fifth Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of November 14, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified through the date hereof, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the respective meaning assigned to such terms in the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
B. Concurrently herewith, the parties hereto are entering into that certain Structuring Fee Letter in connection herewith (the “Structuring Fee Letter”).
C. The parties hereto desire to amend the Receivables Purchase Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Rebalancing.
(a) Rebalancing of Capital. On the date hereof, the Seller will repay a portion of the outstanding Capital in the amounts for MUFG and SMBC as specified in the flow of funds memorandum attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Reducing Purchaser”); provided that all accrued and unpaid Discount with respect to such Capital so repaid shall be payable by the Seller to each Reducing Purchaser, as applicable, on the next occurring Weekly Settlement Date. The Seller hereby requests that each of PNC, Xxxxx, CACIB, Regions and Mizuho (each, an “Increasing Purchaser”) fund a Purchase on the date hereof in the applicable amount set forth in Exhibit A hereto. Such Purchase shall be funded by the Increasing Purchasers on the date hereof in accordance with the terms of the Receivables Purchase Agreement and upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent thereto specified in the Receivables Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that no Purchase Notice shall be required therefor. For administrative convenience, the Seller hereby instructs the Increasing Purchasers to fund the foregoing Purchase by paying the proceeds thereof directly to the Reducing Purchasers to the accounts and in the amounts specified in Exhibit A hereto to be applied as the foregoing repayment of each Reducing Purchaser’s Capital (as applicable) on the Seller’s behalf. The Seller shall be deemed to have received the proceeds of such Purchase from each Increasing Purchaser for all purposes immediately upon receipt thereof by each Reducing Purchaser, respectively.
(b) Consents. The parties hereto hereby consent to the non-ratable repayment of each Reducing Purchaser’s Capital on terms set forth in clause (a) above and the foregoing non-ratable Purchase to be funded by the Increasing Purchasers on the terms set forth in clause (a) above, in each case, as set forth above on a one-time basis.
SECTION 2. Amendments to the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
(a) Each reference in the Receivables Purchase Agreement (including schedules and exhibits thereto) to “The Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd.” is hereby replaced with a reference to “MUFG Bank, Ltd.”
(b) The following new Section 1.13 is added to the Receivables Purchase Agreement:
Section 1.13 Successor Euro-Rate or LMIR Index.
(a) If the Administrator determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error) that either (i) (A) the circumstances set forth in Section 1.10 have arisen and are unlikely to be temporary, or (B) the circumstances set forth in Section 1.10 have not arisen but the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of the Euro-Rate or LMIR or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrator has made a public statement identifying the specific date after which the Euro-Rate or LMIR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans (either such date, a “LIBOR Termination Date”), or (ii) a rate other than the Euro-Rate or LMIR has become a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in Dollars in the U.S. market, then the Administrator may (in consultation with the Seller and Purchaser Agents) choose a replacement index for the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, and make adjustments to applicable margins and related amendments to this Agreement as referred to below such that, to the extent practicable, the Discount based on the replacement index will be substantially equivalent to the Discount based on the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, in effect prior to its replacement.
(b) The Administrator and the Seller shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect the replacement index, the adjusted margins and such other related amendments as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Administrator, for the implementation and administration of the replacement index-based rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, Section 6.1), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date a draft of the amendment is provided to the Group Agents, unless the Administrator receives, on or before such tenth (10th) Business Day, a written notice from the Majority Purchaser Agents stating that such Majority Purchaser Agents object to such amendment.
(c) Selection of the replacement index, adjustments to the applicable margins, and amendments to this Agreement (i) will be determined with due consideration to the then-current market practices for determining and implementing a rate of interest for newly originated loans in the United States and loans converted from a rate based on the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, to a replacement index-based rate, and (ii) may also reflect adjustments to account for (A) the effects of the transition from the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, to the replacement index and (B) yield- or risk-based differences between the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, and the replacement index
(d) Until an amendment reflecting a new replacement index in accordance with this Section 1.13 is effective, any Portion of Capital for which Discount is determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR will continue to accrue Discount with reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, provided, however, that if the Administrator determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error) that a LIBOR Termination Date has occurred, then following the LIBOR Termination Date, all Portions of Capital for which Discount would otherwise be determined with reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, shall automatically begin accruing Discount with reference to the Base Rate until such time as an amendment reflecting a replacement index and related matters as described above is implemented.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time the replacement index is less than zero, at such times, such index shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement.
(c) The following new defined term and definition thereof is hereby added to Exhibit I to the Receivables Purchase Agreement in appropriate alphabetical order:
“Material Acquisition” has the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement as in effect as of August 30, 2018 without giving effect to any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of such term (or any other term constituting a direct or indirect component thereof) after August 30, 2018 or any substitution or replacement of such term (or any other term constituting a direct or indirect component thereof) under any substitute or replacement credit or financing facility after August 30, 2018, unless the Administrator and the Majority Purchaser Agents shall have consented in writing thereto.
(d) The definition of “Purchase Limit” set forth in Exhibit I to the Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the amount “$950,000,000” from where it appears therein with “$1,200,000,000”.
(e) The definition of “Consolidated Leverage Ratio” set forth in Exhibit I to the Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“Consolidated Leverage Ratio” has the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement as in effect as of August 30, 2018 without giving effect to any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of such term (or any other term constituting a direct or indirect component thereof) after August 30, 2018 or any substitution or replacement of such term (or any other term constituting a direct or indirect component thereof) under any substitute or replacement credit or financing facility after August 30, 2018, unless the Administrator and the Majority Purchaser Agents shall have consented in writing thereto.
(f) Clause (r) of Section 1 of Exhibit IV to the Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following sentence at the end thereof:
The Seller will provide to the Administrator and each Purchaser such information and documentation as may reasonably be requested by the Administrator and each Purchaser from time to time for purposes of compliance by the Administrator and each Purchaser with applicable laws (including without limitation the USA Patriot Act and other “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations), and any policy or procedure implemented by the Administrator and each Purchaser to comply therewith.
(g) Clause (l) of Section 2 of Exhibit IV to the Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following sentence at the end thereof:
The Servicer will provide to the Administrator and each Purchaser such information and documentation as may reasonably be requested by the Administrator and each Purchaser from time to time for purposes of compliance by the Administrator and each Purchaser with applicable laws (including without limitation the USA Patriot Act and other “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations), and any policy or procedure implemented by the Administrator and each Purchaser to comply therewith.
(h) Clause (n) of Exhibit V to the Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety with the following:
(n) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the end of any fiscal quarter of FleetCor shall be greater than 4.00 to 1.00; provided that in connection with any Material Acquisition, at FleetCor’s election by written notice to the Administrator prior to the consummation of such Material Acquisition, the foregoing ratio shall be increased to 4.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter of FleetCor in which such Material Acquisition is consummated and for each of the next three (3) consecutive fiscal quarters of FleetCor ending thereafter (such period of increase, a “Leverage Increase Period”); provided, further, that (i) for at least one (1) fiscal quarter of FleetCor ending immediately following each Leverage Increase Period, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the end of such fiscal quarter of FleetCor shall not be greater than 4.00 to 1.00 prior to giving effect to another Leverage Increase Period, and (ii) immediately after the end of a Leverage Increase Period, the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio permitted under this clause (n) as of the end of any fiscal quarter of FleetCor shall automatically revert to 4.00 to 1.00.
(i) Schedule V to the Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety with Schedule V attached hereto.
