ARTICLE II
AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES AND THE LETTERS OF CREDIT

 

Section 2.01           The Advances and the Letters of Credit.  (a)  The Revolving Credit Advances.  Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make advances (each, a “Revolving Credit Advance”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the Termination Date in an amount for each such Advance not to exceed such Lender’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment at such time.  Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof and shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances made simultaneously by the Lenders ratably according to their Revolving Credit Commitments.  Within the limits of each Lender’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment in effect from time to time and prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(a), prepay pursuant to Section 2.06(a) and reborrow under this Section 2.01(a).

 

(b)           Letters of Credit.  Each Issuing Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to issue (or cause its Affiliate that is a commercial bank to issue on its behalf) letters of credit denominated in U.S. Dollars (the “Letters of Credit”), for the account of the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until 60 days before the Termination Date in an aggregate Available Amount (i) for all Letters of Credit not to exceed at any time the Letter of Credit Facility at such time, (ii) for all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank not to exceed such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment at such time, and (iii) for each such Letter of Credit not to exceed the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at such time.  No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date (including all rights of the Borrower or the beneficiary to require renewal) later than the Termination Date and (A) in the case of a Standby Letter of Credit one year after the date of issuance thereof, but may by its terms be renewable annually upon notice (a “Notice of Renewal”) given to the Issuing Bank that issued such Standby Letter of Credit and the Administrative Agent on or prior to any date for notice of renewal set forth in such Letter of Credit but in any event at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed renewal of such Standby Letter of Credit and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III unless such Issuing Bank has notified the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date for notice of termination set forth in such Letter of Credit but in any event at least 30 Business Days prior to the date of automatic renewal of its election not to renew such Standby Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Termination”) and (B) in the case of a Trade Letter of Credit, 60 days after the date of issuance thereof; provided, however, that the terms of each Standby Letter of Credit that is automatically renewable annually shall (x) require the Issuing Bank that issued such Standby Letter of Credit to give the beneficiary named in such Standby Letter of Credit notice of any Notice of Termination, (y) permit such beneficiary, upon receipt of such notice, to draw under such Standby Letter of Credit prior to the date such Standby Letter of Credit otherwise would have been automatically renewed and (z) not permit the expiration date (after giving effect to any renewal) of such Standby Letter of Credit in any event to be extended to a date later than the Termination Date.  If either a Notice of Renewal is not given by the Borrower or a Notice of Termination is given by the relevant Issuing Bank pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, such Standby Letter of Credit shall expire on the date on which it otherwise would have been automatically renewed; provided, however, that even in the absence of receipt of a Notice of Renewal the relevant Issuing Bank may in its discretion, unless instructed to the contrary by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, deem that a Notice of Renewal had been timely delivered and in such case, a Notice of Renewal shall be deemed to have been so delivered for all purposes under this Agreement.  Within the limits of the Letter of Credit Facility, and subject to the limits referred to above, the Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(b), repay any Letter of Credit Advances resulting from drawings thereunder pursuant to Section 2.04(c) and request the issuance of additional Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(b).

 

(c)           Swing Line Advances.  The Borrower may request the Swing Line Bank to make, and the Swing Line Bank agrees to make, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, Swing Line Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the Termination Date (i) in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding $25,000,000 (the

 

29



 

Swing Line Facility”) and (ii) in an amount for each such Swing Line Borrowing not to exceed the aggregate of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at such time.  No Swing Line Advance shall be used for the purpose of funding the payment of principal of any other Swing Line Advance.  Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be in an amount of $250,000 or an integral multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof and shall be made as a Base Rate Advance.  Within the limits of the Swing Line Facility and within the limits referred to in clause (ii) above, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(c), repay pursuant to Section 2.04(b) or prepay pursuant to Section 2.06(a) and reborrow under this Section 2.01(c).

 

Section 2.02           Making the Advances.  (a)  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.03, each Borrowing (other than a Swing Line Borrowing) shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date one Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telex or telecopier.  Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telex or telecopier or e-mail, in each case in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Advance.  Each Lender shall, before 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances and 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing in accordance with the respective Commitments of such Lender and the other Lenders.  After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower’s Account; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall first make a portion of such funds equal to the aggregate principal amount of any Swing Line Advances and Letter of Credit Advances made by the Swing Line Bank or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and by any other Lender and outstanding on the date of such Borrowing, plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon to and as of such date, available to the Swing Line Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and such other Lenders for repayment of such Swing Line Advances and Letter of Credit Advances.

 

(b)           Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing, by the Borrower to the Swing Line Bank and the Administrative Agent.  Each such notice of a Swing Line Borrowing (a “Notice of Swing Line Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing or by telecopier or e-mail, in each case specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) amount of such Borrowing and (iii) maturity of such Borrowing (which maturity shall be no later than the earlier of (A) the seventh day after the requested date of such Borrowing and (B) the Termination Date).  The Swing Line Bank shall, before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Swing Line Borrowing, make the amount thereof available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds.  After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower’s Account.  Upon written demand by the Swing Line Bank, with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent, each other Lender shall purchase from the Swing Line Bank, and the Swing Line Bank shall sell and assign to each such other Lender, such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such outstanding Swing Line Advance as of the date of such demand, by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank, by deposit to the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Swing Line Advance to be purchased by such Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to each such sale and assignment.  Each Lender agrees to purchase its Pro Rata Share of an outstanding Swing Line Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by the Swing Line Bank, provided that notice of such demand is given not later than

 

30



 

12:00 Noon (New York City time) on such Business Day or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time.  Upon any such assignment by the Swing Line Bank to any other Lender of a portion of a Swing Line Advance, the Swing Line Bank represents and warrants to such other Lender that the Swing Line Bank is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, but makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Swing Line Advance, the Loan Documents or any Loan Party.  If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Swing Line Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by the Swing Line Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.  If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of the Swing Line Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Swing Line Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Advance made by the Swing Line Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day.

 

(c)           Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for the initial Borrowing hereunder or for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $1,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.07(d)(ii), 2.09 or 2.10 and (ii) there may not be more than five separate Interest Periods in effect hereunder at any time.

 

(d)           Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Swing Line Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.  In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

 

(e)           Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to (x) the date of any Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances or (y) 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of any Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay or pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at such time under Section 2.07 to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate.  If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes.

 

(f)            The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

 

Section 2.03           Issuance of and Drawings and Reimbursement Under Letters of Credit.  (a)  Request for Issuance.  Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not later than 12:00 Noon (New

 

31



 

York City time) on the fifth Business Day prior to the date of the proposed issuance of such Letter of Credit, by the Borrower to any Issuing Bank, which shall give to the Administrative Agent and each Lender prompt notice thereof by telex, telecopier or e-mail or by means of the Approved Electronic Platform.  Each such notice of issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Issuance”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, telex, telecopier or e-mail, in each case specifying therein the requested (i) date of such issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, (iii) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (iv) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and (v) form of such Letter of Credit, and shall be accompanied by such application and agreement for letter of credit as such Issuing Bank may specify to the Borrower for use in connection with such requested Letter of Credit (a “Letter of Credit Agreement”).  If (y) the requested form of such Letter of Credit is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion and (z) it has not received notice of objection to such issuance from the Required Lenders, such Issuing Bank will, upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, make such Letter of Credit available to the Borrower at its office referred to in Section 9.02 or as otherwise agreed with the Borrower in connection with such issuance.  In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

 

(b)           Letter of Credit Reports.  Each Issuing Bank shall furnish (i) to each Lender on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and (ii) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate Available Amount during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

 

(c)           Letter of Credit Participations; Drawing and Reimbursement.  (i)  Immediately upon the issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender, and each Lender (in its capacity under this Section 2.03(c), a “Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit, to the extent of such Participant’s Pro Rata Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, each drawing or payment made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto.  Upon any change in the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares pursuant to Section 9.07, it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and unpaid drawings relating thereto, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reflect the new Pro Rata Shares of the assignor and assignee Lenders, as the case may be.

 

(ii)           In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall not have any obligation with respect to the other Revolving Credit Lenders other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to substantially comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it shall not create for the Issuing Bank any resulting liability to the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any Revolving Credit Lender or any other Person unless such action is taken or omitted to be taken with gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment).

 

(iii)          The payment by any Issuing Bank of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by such Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit Advance, which shall be a Base Rate Advance, in the amount of such draft.  In the event that the Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it and the Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.04(c), the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Participant of such failure, and each Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for

 

32



 

the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of such Participant’s Pro Rata Share of such unreimbursed payment in U.S. dollars and in same day funds.  Upon such notification by the Administrative Agent to any Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit, such Participant shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share of an outstanding Letter of Credit Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by the Issuing Bank which made such Advance, provided that notice of such demand is given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day, or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time.  If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of such Issuing Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Letter of Credit Advance made by such Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day.  If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Letter of Credit Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by such Issuing Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for its account or the account of such Issuing Bank, as applicable.

 

(iv)          Whenever the Issuing Bank receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which it has received any payments from the Participants pursuant to clause (iii) above, the Issuing Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each such Participant that has paid its Pro Rata Share thereof, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Participant’s share (based upon the proportionate aggregate amount originally funded by such Participant to the aggregate amount funded by all Participants) of the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.

 

(d)           Failure to Make Letter of Credit Advances.  The failure of any Lender to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by it on the date specified in Section 2.03(c) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Letter of Credit Advance on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on such date.

 

(e)           Independence.  The Borrower acknowledges that the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit are independent of the existence, performance or nonperformance of any contract or arrangement underlying such Letter of Credit, including contracts or arrangements between the Issuing Bank and the Borrower and between the Borrower and the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit.

 

(f)            Governing Rules.  The Borrower agrees that each Letter of Credit shall be governed by the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) Publication No. 600 (2007 Revision) or, at the Issuing Bank’s option, such later revision thereof in effect at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit (as so chosen for such Letter of Credit, the “UCP”) or the International Standby Practices 1998, ICC Publication No. 590 or, at the Issuing Bank’s option, such later revision thereof in effect at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit (as so chosen for the Letter of Credit, the “ISP”, and each of the UCP and the ISP, an “ICC Rule”).  The UCP and the ISP (or such later revision of either) shall serve, in the absence of proof to the contrary, as evidence of general banking usage with respect to the subject matter thereof.

(G)           any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any other Loan Party.

36



 

(B)           each such Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance (or if such Advance is then a Base Rate Advance, will continue as a Base Rate Advance), and

 

(C)           the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

 

Section 2.08           Fees.  (a)  Unused Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an unused commitment fee (the “Unused Fee”), from the date hereof in the case of each Initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing June 30, 2012, and on the Termination Date.  The Unused Fee payable for the account of each Lender shall be calculated for each period for which the Unused Fee is payable on the average daily Unused Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during such period at the rate of 0.35% per annum.

Section 2.09           Conversion of Advances.  (a)  Optional.  The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.07 and 2.10, Convert all or any portion of the Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(c), no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(c) and each Conversion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing under any Facility shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments under such Facility.  Each such notice of Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for such Advances.  Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

 

(b)           Mandatory.  (i)  On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $1,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances.

 

(ii)           If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon the Borrower will be deemed to have elected to continue such Eurodollar Rate Advances as Eurodollar Rate Advances with a one-month Interest Period.

 

(iii)          Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (y) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (z) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended.

 

Section 2.10           Increased Costs, Etc.  (a)  If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation which change or interpretation is enacted, adopted or issued after the date hereof or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority adopted, issued or made after the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender Party of agreeing to make or of making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances or of agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit or of agreeing to make or of making or maintaining Letter of Credit Advances (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.10, any such increased costs resulting from (y) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.12 shall govern) and (z) changes in the basis of taxation (including a change of rate or imposition of tax) of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender Party is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost; provided, however, that a Lender Party claiming additional amounts under this Section 2.10(a) agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender Party.  A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

38



 

(b)           If any Lender Party determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority enacted, adopted, issued or made after the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and other commitments of such type or the issuance or maintenance of or participation in the Letters of Credit (or similar contingent obligations), then, upon demand by such Lender Party or such corporation (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of or participation in any Letters of Credit.  A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as amended, and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued, and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements or the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) shall be deemed an introduction or change of the type referred to in Section 2.10(a) above and this Section 2.10(b).

 

(c)           If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

 

(d)           Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

 

(e)           Failure or delay on the part of any Lender Party or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender Party’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender Party or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender Party or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies

 

39



 

the Borrower of the introduction or change of the type referred to in clause (a) above giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender Party’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if such introduction or change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

 

Section 2.11           Payments and Computations.  (a)  The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.13), not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account in same day funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the Notes to more than one Lender Party, to such Lender Parties for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lender Parties and (ii) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender Party, to such Lender Party for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(d), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender Party assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

 

(b)           The Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender Party and each of its Affiliates, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender Party is not made when due hereunder or, in the case of a Lender, under the Note held by such Lender, to charge from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against any or all of the Borrower’s accounts with such Lender Party any amount so due.

 

(c)           All computations of interest based on Citibank’s base rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of fees and Letter of Credit commissions shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable.  Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate, fee or commission hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

(d)           Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

 

(e)           Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender Party hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender Party on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender Party.  If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender Party shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender Party together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such

 

40



 

amount is distributed to such Lender Party until the date such Lender Party repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

 

(f)            Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Agents and the Lender Parties under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Agents and the Lender Parties in the following order of priority:

 

(i)            first, to the payment of all of the fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Agents (solely in their respective capacities as Agents) under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Agents on such date;

Section 2.12                                Taxes.  (a)  Any and all payments by any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender Party or any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.11 or the applicable provisions of such other Loan Document, if any, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) in the case of each Lender Party and each Agent, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income by the United States, branch profits taxes imposed by the United States and taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof and branch profits taxes) by the state or foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, is organized or any political subdivision thereof, (ii) in the case of each Lender Party, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof and branch profits taxes) by the state or foreign jurisdiction of such Lender Party’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof and (iii) in the case of each Lender Party, any U.S. federal withholding tax imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), including any current or future implementing Treasury regulations and administrative pronouncements thereunder (collectively, “FATCA”) (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).  If any Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender Party or any Agent, and unless such requirement arises from the failure of a Lender to furnish the documentation described in Section 2.12(e), (i) the sum payable by the such Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Loan Party and any Agent have made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.12) such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make all such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

(b)                                 In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property, intangible, mortgage recording or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made by such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, or the other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

 

(c)                                  The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Lender Party and each Agent for and hold them harmless against the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes, and for the full amount of taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.12, imposed on or paid by such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto.  This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

 

(d)                                 Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the appropriate Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment, to the extent such receipt is issued therefor, or other evidence of

payment thereof reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  In the case of any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or on behalf of a Loan Party through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of a Loan Party by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Loan Party determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Loan Party shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes.  For purposes of subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 2.12, the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

(e)                                  Each Lender Party organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender Party, and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W8-BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender Party is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or, in the case of a Lender Party claiming the benefit of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code (x) a certificate in the form of Exhibit I hereto to the effect that such Lender Party is not a (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (B) or a “10 percent shareholder” of any Loan Party within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and (y) two duly completed copies of an IRS W-8BEN.  If the forms provided by a Lender Party at the time such Lender Party first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender Party provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided, however, that if, at the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender Party becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this Section 2.12 in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date.  If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service form W8-BEN or W8-ECI, that the applicable Lender Party reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender Party shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information.  Upon the request of the Borrower, any Lender that is a United States person and is not an exempt recipient for U.S. backup withholding purposes shall deliver to the Borrower two copies of Internal Revenue Service form W-9 (or any successor form).  If a payment made to a Lender Party under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender Party were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender Party shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender Party has complied with such Lender Party’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for the purposes of this subsection (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 

43



 

(f)                                    For any period with respect to which a Lender Party has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form or other document described in subsection (e) above (other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form or other document originally was required to be provided or if such form or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.12 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender Party become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form or other document required hereunder, the Loan Parties shall take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist such Lender Party to recover such Taxes.

 

(g)                                 Any Lender Party claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.12 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender Party.

 

(h)                                 In the event that an additional payment is made under Section 2.12(a) or (c) for the account of any Lender Party and such Lender Party, in its sole discretion, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a credit against or release or remission for, or repayment of, any tax paid or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or withholding giving rise to such payment, such Lender Party shall, to the extent that it determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to the applicable Loan Party such amount as such Lender Party shall, in its sole discretion, have determined to be attributable to such deduction or withholding and which will leave such Lender Party (after such payment) in no worse position than it would have been in if the applicable Loan Party had not been required to make such deduction or withholding.  Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender Party to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender Party to claim any tax credit or to disclose any information relating to its affairs or any computations in respect thereof, and no Loan Party shall be entitled to review the tax records of any Lender Party or the Administrative Agent, or require any Lender Party to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

 

Section 2.13                                Sharing of Payments, Etc.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(f), if any Lender Party shall obtain at any time any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise, other than as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 9.07) (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all the Lender Parties at such time or (b) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all of the Lender Parties at such time, such Lender Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender Parties such interests or participating interests in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, such purchase from each other Lender Party shall be rescinded and such other Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the extent of such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price paid to such Lender Party to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lender Parties) of such

 

44



 

recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Lender Party’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party in respect of the total amount so recovered.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender Party so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case may be, as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such interest or participating interest, as the case may be.

 

Section 2.14                                Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the Advances and issuances of Letters of Credit shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds and Letters of Credit) solely for (i) general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, (ii) the acquisition or development of new, and the renovation or expansion of existing, Healthcare Assets and the acquisition of such other assets and the making of such other Investments as are permitted by this Agreement, (iii) capital expenditures relating to Healthcare Assets, (iv) the repayment (or refinancing) of Debt, and (v) the payment of fees and expenses related to the Facilities and the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

 

Section 2.15                                Evidence of Debt.  (a)  Each Lender Party shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender Party resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender Party from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender Party from time to time hereunder.  The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender Party to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Lender Party to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender Party, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender Party, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a Note, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, payable to the order of such Lender Party in a principal amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender Party.  All references to Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean Notes, if any, to the extent issued hereunder.  To the extent no Note has been issued to a Lender Party, this Agreement shall be deemed to comprise conclusive evidence for all purposes of the indebtedness resulting from the Advances and extensions of credit hereunder.

 

(b)                                 The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(d) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender Party, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender Party hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender Party’s share thereof.

 

(c)                                  Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender Party in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender Party and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender Party, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.

 

Section 2.16                                Extensions of Termination Date.  (a)  At least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request, with respect to the Commitments then outstanding, a single one-year extension of the initial Termination Date.

 

45



 

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request and the Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the Termination Date (the “First Extension Date”), be extended for an additional one year period, provided that the Borrower shall have paid the Extension Fee as described in Section 2.08(d) and on the First Extension Date the following statements shall be true and the Administrative Agent shall have received for the account of each Lender Party a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, dated the First Extension Date, stating that:  (i) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 are true and correct on and as of the First Extension Date (except those that expressly relate to prior periods, which shall remain true as of the prior date), (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such extension, and (iii) the Loan Parties are in compliance with the covenants contained in Section 5.04 immediately before and, on a pro forma basis, immediately after the extension, together with supporting information demonstrating such compliance.  In the event that an extension is effected pursuant to this Section 2.16(a) (but subject to the provisions of Sections 2.05, 2.06 and 6.01), the aggregate principal amount of all Advances shall be repaid in full ratably to the Lenders on the Termination Date as so extended.  As of the First Extension Date, any and all references in this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any of the other Loan Documents to the “Termination Date” shall refer to the Termination Date as so extended.

 

(b)                                 Provided that the initial Termination Date has been extended in accordance with Section 2.16(a), at least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the Termination Date as extended in accordance with Section 2.16(a), the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request, with respect to the Commitments then outstanding, a single one-year extension of such Termination Date.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request and the Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at such Termination Date (the “Second Extension Date”), be extended for an additional one year period, provided that the Borrower shall have paid the Extension Fees as described in Section 2.08(d) and on the Second Extension Date the following statements shall be true and the Administrative Agent shall have received for the account of each Lender Party a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, dated the Second Extension Date, stating that:  (i) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 are true and correct on and as of the Second Extension Date (except those that expressly relate to prior periods, which shall remain true as of the prior date), (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such extension, and (iii) the Loan Parties are in compliance with the covenants contained in Section 5.04 immediately before and, on a pro forma basis, immediately after the extension, together with supporting information demonstrating such compliance.  In the event that an extension is effected pursuant to this Section 2.16(b) (but subject to the provisions of Sections 2.05, 2.06 and 6.01), the aggregate principal amount of all Advances shall be repaid in full ratably to the Lenders on the Termination Date as so extended.  As of the Second Extension Date, any and all references in this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any of the other Loan Documents to the “Termination Date” shall refer to the Termination Date as so extended.

 

Section 2.17                                Defaulting Lenders.  (a) If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, if any Letter of Credit or Swing Line Advance is at the time outstanding, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank, as the case may be, may (except, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, to the extent the Commitments have been fully reallocated pursuant to Section 2.17(b)), by notice to the Borrower and such Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit or Swing Line Advance in amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender or such Potential Defaulting Lender to be applied pro rata in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank, as the case may be, in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender.

 

46



 

(b)                                 If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding Letter of Credit Exposure and any outstanding Swing Line Exposure of such Defaulting Lender:

 

(i)                                     the Letter of Credit Exposure and the Swing Line Exposure of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; provided that (a) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s total Revolving Credit Exposure, total Swing Line Exposure and total Letter of Credit Exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation and (b) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Bank or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender;

 

(ii)                                  to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure and Swing Line Exposure cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than three (3) Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Issuing Bank and/or the Swing Line Bank, as the case may be), (a) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit Exposure or Swing Line Exposure, as the case may be, in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such Letter of Credit Exposure or Swing Line Exposure, or (b) in the case of such Swing Line Exposure, prepay (subject to clause (c) below) and/or Cash Collateralize in full the unreallocated portion thereof, or (c) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank, as the case may be, in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and

 

(iii)                               any amount paid by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account until (subject to Section 2.17(f)) the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority:  first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Bank (pro rata as to the respective amounts owing to each of them) under this Agreement, third to the payment of post-default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders hereunder other than Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, fourth to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fifth to pay principal and unreimbursed Letter of Credit Advances then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them, sixth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and seventh after the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

 

(c)                                  In furtherance of the foregoing, if any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, each of the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower (which authorization is irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to

 

47



 

give, in its discretion, through the Administrative Agent, Notices of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02 in such amounts and in such times as may be required to (i) reimburse an outstanding Letter of Credit Disbursement, (ii) repay an outstanding Swing Line Advance, and/or (iii) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit or Swing Line Advances in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit or Swing Line Advance.

 

(d)                                 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the Required Lenders determine that a Person serving as an Agent is (without taking into account any provision in the definition of “Defaulting Lender” requiring notice from the Administrative Agent or any other party) a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (v) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders (determined after giving effect to Section 9.01) may by notice to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a replacement Agent hereunder.  Such removal will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effective on the earlier of (i) the date a replacement Agent is appointed and (ii) the date thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice by the Required Lenders (regardless of whether a replacement Agent has been appointed).

 

(e)                                  The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than thirty (30) Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.17(b)(iii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Bank or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

 

(f)                                    If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank agree in writing, in their reasonable discretion, that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.17(b)), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par such portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders and/or make such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Exposure, Letter of Credit Exposure and Swing Line Exposure of the Lenders to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and such Exposure of each Lender will automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender.

 

Section 2.18                                Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.10, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.12 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Applicable Lending Office, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its 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, and consents required by, Sections 9.01(b) and 9.07), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.10 or Section 2.12) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee designated by the Borrower and approved by the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) that

 

48



 

shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) (a “Replacement Lender”); provided that:

 

(a)                                  the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 9.07;

 

(b)                                 such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

 

(c)                                  in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.12, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

 

(d)                                 such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and

 

(e)                                  in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

 

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  Each Lender required to make an assignment pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall promptly execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with the applicable Replacement Lender.

(e)                                  any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

 

(f)                                    any failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party to disclose such information);

 

(g)                                 the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Guaranty Supplement or any other guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or

 

(h)                                 any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety.

 

This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Secured Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

 

Section 7.03                                Waivers and Acknowledgments.  (a)  Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person or any collateral.

 

(b)                                 Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

(d)                                 Each Guarantor acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may, without notice to or demand upon such Guarantor and without affecting the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty, foreclose under any mortgage by nonjudicial sale, and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense to the recovery by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties against such Guarantor of any deficiency after such nonjudicial sale and any defense or benefits that may be afforded by applicable law.

 

(e)                                  Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party.

 

(f)                                    Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in Section 7.02 and this Section 7.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

ARTICLE VIII
THE AGENTS

 

Section 8.01                                Authorization and Action; Appointment of Supplemental Collateral Agents.  (a)  Each Lender Party (in its capacities as a Lender, the Swing Line Bank (if applicable) and as an Issuing Bank (if applicable)) hereby appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), no Agent shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lender Parties and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that no Agent shall be required to take any action that exposes such Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.  Each Agent agrees to give to each Lender Party prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, no Person identified as a syndication agent, joint lead arranger or joint book running manager, in such Person’s capacity as such, shall have any obligations or duties to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party under any of such Loan Documents.  In its capacity as the Lender Parties’ contractual representative, Agents are each a “representative” of the Lender Parties as used within the meaning of “Secured Party” under Section 9-102 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

 

(b)                                 Anything contained herein or in the Collateral Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent may from time to time, when the Collateral Agent deems it to be necessary, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents or collateral subagents (each, a “Supplemental Collateral Agent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral.  In the event that the Collateral Agent so appoints any Supplemental Collateral Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Collateral Agent, with all rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent under the Collateral Documents with respect to such Collateral; (ii) such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be an “Agent” for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of the Security Agreement, this

 

92



 

Article and Section 9.04 hereof that refer to the Agents (or either of them) shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, and all references therein and in the other Loan Documents to the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Collateral Agent and/or such Supplemental Collateral Agent, as the context may require; and (iii) the term “Collateral Agent”, when used herein or in any applicable Collateral Document in relation to the Liens on or security interests in such Collateral granted in favor of the Collateral Agent, and any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral, shall be deemed to include such Supplemental Collateral Agent; provided, however, that no such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent.  Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower or any other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by the Collateral Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirming to such Supplemental Collateral Agent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Collateral Agent.  If any Supplemental Collateral Agent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent.

Section 8.03                                CBNA and Affiliates.  With respect to its Commitments, the Advances made by it and the Notes issued to it, CBNA shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender Party and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent; and the term “Lender Party” or “Lender Parties” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include CBNA in its individual capacity.  CBNA and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any Subsidiary of any Loan Party and any Person that may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or

any such Subsidiary, all as if CBNA were not the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lender Parties.

 

Section 8.04                                Lender Party Credit Decision.  Each Lender Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender Party and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall require any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any Person on behalf of any Lender Party and each Lender Party confirms to the Agents that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees.

 

Section 8.05                                Indemnification by Lender Parties.  (a)  Each Lender Party severally agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender Party’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”); provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from any Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Party severally agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrower under Section 9.04, to the extent that such Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower.  In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender Party or any other Person.

 

(b)                                 Each Lender Party severally agrees to indemnify each Issuing Bank (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender Party’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Party severally agrees to reimburse such Issuing Bank promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrower under Section 9.04, to the extent that such Issuing Bank is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower.

 

(c)                                  For purposes of this Section 8.05, the Lender Parties’ respective ratable shares of any amount shall be determined, at any time, according to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments at such time.  The failure of any Lender Party to reimburse any Agent or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lender Parties to such Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender Party of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for its ratable share

 

94



 

of such amount, but no Lender Party shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender Party to reimburse such Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such other Lender Party’s ratable share of such amount.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender Party hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender Party contained in this Section 8.05 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 8.06                                Successor Agents.  (a)  Any Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lender Parties and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that any removal of the Administrative Agent will not be effective until it has been replaced as Collateral Agent and it (or its Affiliate) has been replaced as an Issuing Bank and released from all obligations in respect thereof.  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent.  If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lender Parties, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, and, in the case of a successor Collateral Agent, upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.  If within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Agent’s resignation or removal under this Section 8.06 no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (i) the retiring Agent’s resignation or removal shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.  After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as an Agent shall have become effective, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 In addition to the foregoing, if a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank and/or the Swing Line Bank may, upon prior written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, resign as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Bank, respectively, effective at the close of business New York time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than thirty (30) days after the date of such notice), provided that such resignation by the Issuing Bank will have no effect on the validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit then outstanding or on the obligations of the Borrower or any Lender under this Agreement with respect to any such outstanding Letter of Credit or otherwise to the Issuing Bank; and provided, further, that such resignation by the Swing Line Bank will have no effect on its rights in respect of any outstanding Swing Line Advances or on the obligations of the Borrower or any Lender under this Agreement with respect to any such outstanding Swing Line Advance.

 

Section 8.07                                Relationship of Agents and Lenders.  The relationship between Agents (or either of them) and the Lenders, and the relationship among the Lenders, is not intended by the parties to create, and shall not create, any trust, joint venture or partnership relation between them.

98



 

DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES IN CONNECTION WITH THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

 

(e)                                  Each of the Lender Parties and each Loan Party agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies.

Section 9.05                                Right of Set-off.  Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Agent and each Lender Party and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and otherwise apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Agent, such Lender Party or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether such Agent or such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note or Notes and although such obligations may be unmatured.  Each Agent and each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower or such Loan Party after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.  The rights of each Agent and each Lender Party and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Agent, such Lender Party and their respective Affiliates may have; provided, however, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17(b) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Bank and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

 

Section 9.06                                Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, each Guarantor named on the signature pages hereto and the Administrative

 

100



 

Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender and each Initial Issuing Bank that such Initial Lender or such Initial Issuing Bank, as the case may be, has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Guarantors named on the signature pages hereto and each Agent and each Lender Party and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lender Parties.

 

Section 9.07                                Assignments and Participations; Replacement Notes.  (a)  Each Lender may (and, if demanded by the Borrower in accordance with Section 9.01(b) will) assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of one or more of the Facilities, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or a Fund Affiliate of any Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the aggregate amount of the Commitments being assigned to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 under each Facility or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lesser amount as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of effectiveness of such assignment, the Borrower), (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (iv) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.01(b) shall be an assignment at par of all rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, (v) no such assignments shall be permitted without the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except if such assignment is being made by a Lender to an Affiliate or Fund Affiliate of such Lender, (vi) no such assignments shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender or any of their respective subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause, and (vii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and, except if such assignment is being made by a Lender to an Affiliate or Fund Affiliate of such Lender, a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided, however, that for each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.01(b), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the applicable processing and recordation fee.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Bank and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances and participants in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

 

(b)                                 Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, hereunder

 

101



 

and (ii) the Lender or Issuing Bank assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.10, 2.12, 7.06, 8.05 and 9.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall cease to be a party hereto).

 

(c)                                  By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each Lender Party assignor thereunder and each assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties thereto and hereto as follows:  (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, such assigning Lender Party or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

 

(d)                                 The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender Parties and the Commitment under each Facility of, and principal amount of the Advances owing under each Facility to, each Lender Party from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lender Parties may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender Party hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Agent or any Lender Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(e)                                  Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender Party and an assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and each other Agent.  In the case of any assignment by a Lender, within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall, if requested by the applicable Lender, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes a substitute Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it under each Facility pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if any assigning Lender has retained a Commitment hereunder under such Facility, a substitute Note to the order of such assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder.  Such substitute Note or Notes, if any, shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the

 

102



 

aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto.

 

(f)                                    Each Issuing Bank may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its Letter of Credit Commitment at any time; provided, however, that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that immediately prior to such assignment was an Issuing Bank or an assignment of all of an Issuing Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Letter of Credit Commitment of the assigning Issuing Bank being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 and shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee and (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that such fee shall not be payable if the assigning Issuing Bank is making such assignment simultaneously with the assignment in its capacity as a Lender of all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment to the same Eligible Assignee.

 

(g)                                 Each Lender Party may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes (if any) held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender Party’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender Party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender Party shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or release all or substantially all of the Collateral and (vi) if, at the time of such sale, such Lender Party was entitled to payments under Section 2.12(a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to such participant on such date, provided that such participant complies with the requirements of Section 2.12(e) as if it were a Lender hereunder.

 

(h)                                 Any Lender Party may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Loan Parties (or any of them) furnished to such Lender Party by or on behalf of any Loan Party; provided, however, that prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Information received by it from such Lender Party on the same terms as provided in Section 9.10.

 

(i)                                     Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender Party may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it), including in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

 

103



 

(j)                                     Upon notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent or any Lender of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Lender’s Note, the Borrower will execute and deliver, in lieu of such original Note, a replacement promissory note, identical in form and substance to, and dated as of the same date as, the Note so lost, stolen or mutilated, subject to delivery by such Lender to the Borrower of an affidavit of lost note and indemnity in customary form.  Upon the execution and delivery of the replacement Note, all references herein or in any of the other Loan Documents to the lost, stolen or mutilated Note shall be deemed references to the replacement Note.

 

Section 9.08                                Execution in Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or by email with a pdf or similar attachment shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.

 

Section 9.09                                No Liability of the Issuing Banks.  (a)  The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit.  Neither any Issuing Bank nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for:  (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the Borrower shall have a claim against such Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower that the Borrower proves were caused by (i) such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

 

Section 9.10                                Confidentiality.  (a)  Each of the Agents, the Lender Parties and the Issuing Bank agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (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), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party hereto, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section, (vii) to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (viii) to any actual or prospective party (or its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (ix) to any rating agency, (x) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (xi) with the consent of the Borrower or (xii) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.10 or (B) becomes available to such Agent, such Lender Party, the Issuing Bank or any

 

104



 

of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries without such Agent, such Lender Party, the Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates having knowledge that a duty of confidentiality to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has been breached.  For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information that any Loan Party furnishes to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party in writing designated as confidential, but does not include any such information that is or becomes generally available to the public other than by way of a breach of the confidentiality provisions of this Section 9.10 or that is or becomes available to the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party from a source other than the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party and not in violation of any confidentiality agreement with respect to such information that is actually known to the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party.  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.

 

(b)                                 Certain of the Lender Parties may enter into this Agreement and take or not take action hereunder or under the other Loan Documents on the basis of information that does not contain material non-public information with respect to any of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or their respective securities (“Restricting Information”).  Other Lender Parties may enter into this Agreement and take or not take action hereunder or under the other Loan Documents on the basis of information that may contain Restricting Information.  Each Lender Party acknowledges that United States federal and state securities laws prohibit any person from purchasing or selling securities on the basis of material, non-public information concerning the issuer of such securities or, subject to certain limited exceptions, from communicating such information to any other Person.  None of any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall, by making any Communications (including Restricting Information) available to a Lender Party, by participating in any conversations or other interactions with a Lender Party or otherwise, make or be deemed to make any statement with regard to or otherwise warrant that any such information or Communication does or does not contain Restricting Information nor shall any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees be responsible or liable in any way for any decision a Lender Party may make to limit or to not limit its access to Restricting Information.  In particular, none of any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees (i) shall have, and each Agent, on behalf of itself and each of its directors, officers, agents and employees, hereby disclaims, any duty to ascertain or inquire as to whether or not a Lender Party has or has not limited its access to Restricting Information, such Lender Party’s policies or procedures regarding the safeguarding of material, nonpublic information or such Lender Party’s compliance with applicable laws related thereto or (ii) shall have, or incur, any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender Party or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents or employees arising out of or relating to any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees providing or not providing Restricting Information to any Lender Party, other than as found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees.

 

(c)                                  Each Loan Party agrees that (i) all Communications it provides to any Agent intended for delivery to the Lender Parties whether by posting to the Approved Electronic Platform or otherwise shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” if such Communications are determined by the Loan Parties in good faith not to contain Restricting Information which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking Communications “PUBLIC,” each Loan Party shall be deemed to have authorized the Agents and the Lender Parties to treat such Communications as either publicly available information or not material information (although such Communications shall remain subject to the confidentiality undertakings of Section 9.10(a)) with respect to such Loan Party or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws, (iii) all Communications marked “PUBLIC” may be delivered to all Lender Parties and may be made available through a portion of the Approved Electronic Platform designated “Public Side Information” and (iv) the Agents shall be entitled to treat any Communications that are not marked “PUBLIC” as Restricting Information and may post such Communications to a portion of the Approved Electronic Platform not

 

105



 

designated “Public Side Information” (and shall not post such Communications to a portion of the Approved Electronic Platform designated “Public Side Information”).  Neither Agent nor any of its respective Affiliates shall be responsible for any statement or other designation by a Loan Party regarding whether a Communication contains or does not contain material non-public information with respect to any of the Loan Parties or their securities nor shall the Agents or any of their respective Affiliates incur any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender Party or any other Person for any action taken by any Agent or any of its respective Affiliates based upon such statement or designation, including any action as a result of which Restricting Information is provided to a Lender Party that may decide not to take access to Restricting Information.  Nothing in this Section 9.10(c) shall modify or limit a Person’s obligations under Section 9.10 with regard to Communications and the maintenance of the confidentiality of or other treatment of Information.

 

(d)                                 Each Lender Party acknowledges that circumstances may arise that require it to refer to Communications that might contain Restricting Information.  Accordingly, each Lender Party agrees that it will nominate at least one designee to receive Communications (including Restricting Information) on its behalf and identify such designee (including such designee’s contact information) in writing to the Administrative Agent.  Each Lender Party agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time of such Lender Party’s designee’s e-mail address to which notice of the availability of Restricting Information may be sent by electronic transmission.

 

(e)                                  Each Lender Party acknowledges that Communications delivered hereunder and under the other Loan Documents may contain Restricting Information and that such Communications are available to all Lender Parties generally.  Each Lender Party that elects not to take access to Restricting Information does so voluntarily and, by such election, acknowledges and agrees that the Agents and other Lender Parties may have access to Restricting Information that is not available to such electing Lender Party.  Each such electing Lender Party acknowledges the possibility that, due to its election not to take access to Restricting Information, it may not have access to any Communications (including, without being limited to, the items required to be made available to the Administrative Agent in Section 5.03 unless or until such Communications (if any) have been filed or incorporated into documents which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Borrower).  None of the Loan Parties, Agents or any Lender Party with access to Restricting Information shall have any duty to disclose such Restricting Information to such electing Lender Party or to use such Restricting Information on behalf of such electing Lender Party, and shall not be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, such Restricting Information.

 

(f)                                    Sections 9.10(b), (c), (d) and (e) are designed to assist the Agents, the Lender Parties and the Loan Parties, in complying with their respective contractual obligations and applicable law in circumstances where certain Lender Parties express a desire not to receive Restricting Information notwithstanding that certain Communications hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or other information provided to the Lender Parties hereunder or thereunder may contain Restricting Information.  None of any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees warrants or makes any other statement with respect to the adequacy of such provisions to achieve such purpose nor does any Agent or any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees warrant or make any other statement to the effect that a Loan Party’s or Lender Party’s adherence to such provisions will be sufficient to ensure compliance by such Loan Party or Lender Party with its contractual obligations or its duties under applicable law in respect of Restricting Information and each of the Lender Parties and each Loan Party assumes the risks associated therewith.

 

Section 9.11                                Release of Collateral.  (a)  Upon (i) the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any item of Collateral of any Loan Party (including, without limitation, (x) as a result of a sale of the Equity Interests in the Loan Party that owns such Collateral, and (y) any Transfer pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(ii) or (iii)) that is permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents or (ii) any designation of any Borrowing Base Asset as a non-Borrowing Base Asset that is permitted by Section 5.02(e)(iii), then, in either such event, the Collateral Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of

 

106



 

Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Document in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

 

(b)                                 Upon the latest to occur of (i) the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations, (ii) the termination in whole of the Commitments and (iii) the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit, the Liens granted by the Collateral Documents shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Loan Party.  Upon any such termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Parties such documents as such Loan Parties shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

 

Section 9.12                                Patriot Act Notification.  Each Lender and each Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or such Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.  The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by any Agents or any Lenders in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.

 

Section 9.13                                Jurisdiction, Etc.  (a)  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the City, County and State of New York and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, 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 shall be heard and determined in any such New York State court 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 shall affect any right that any Agent may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents with respect to any Collateral in the courts of any applicable jurisdiction.

 

(b)                                 Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that 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 of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in any New York State or Federal court sitting in City, County and State of New York.  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.

 

Section 9.14                                Governing Law.  This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

 

Section 9.15                                WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES, THE AGENTS AND THE LENDER PARTIES IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE ADVANCES, THE LETTERS OF CREDIT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY AGENT OR ANY LENDER PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

(i)                                     all risk insurance on the Improvements and the personal property at the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property], in each case (A) in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the “Full Replacement Cost,” which for purposes of this [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] shall mean actual replacement value (containing no exclusion for foundations, underground utilities and footings); (B) containing an agreed amount endorsement (or its equivalent) with respect to the Improvements and personal property at the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] waiving all or containing no co-insurance provisions; (C) providing for no deductible in excess of Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000) for all such insurance coverage, except for (1) windstorm coverage in which the deductible may not exceed the greater of (a) Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000), and (b) five percent (5%) of the insured value of the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] (provided, however, that if windstorm coverage is not available at commercially reasonable rates with such a deductible, [Mortgagor/Grantor] shall procure the same with a commercially reasonable deductible), (2) earthquake coverage in which the deductible may not exceed the greater of (a) Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000), and (b) five percent (5%) of the insured value of the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property], and (3) flood coverage in which the deductible may not exceed Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000) per building; and (D) containing an “Ordinance or Law Coverage” or “Enforcement” endorsement, including coverage for the value of the undamaged portion of the building, demolition costs and increased cost of construction,  if any of the Improvements or the use of the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses.

(iv)                              at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, (A) owner’s contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above written in a so-called builder’s risk completed value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against all risks insured against pursuant to subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property], and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;

 

(v)                                 workers’ compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the state in which the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] is located, and employer’s liability insurance with a limit of at least $1,000,000 per accident and per disease per employee, and $1,000,000 for disease aggregate in respect of any direct employees of [Mortgagor/Grantor];

(x)                                   umbrella liability insurance, in addition to primary coverage, in a total amount of not less than $20,000,000 per occurrence for professional liability and $25,000,000 per occurrence for general liability on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required under subsections (ii) above and (viii) below;

(xv)                            such other insurance and in such amounts as Agent from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] located in or around the region in which the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] is located.

 

The comprehensive all risk insurance, business income insurance, general liability and umbrella liability policies required under subsections (i), (ii), (iii), and (x) above shall be required to cover perils of terrorism and acts of terrorism for the maximum amount obtainable up to the amounts set forth in subsections (i) (ii), (iii), and (x) above and with deductibles no greater than the deductibles set forth in subsections (i), (ii), (iii), and (x) above.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if acts of terrorism or perils of terrorism or other similar acts or events are hereafter excluded from the policies required under subsections (i) (ii), (iii), and (x) above, [Mortgagor/Grantor] shall obtain an endorsement to such policy (or a separate policy from an insurance provider reasonably approved by Agent), if available at commercially reasonable rates as determined by Agent, insuring against all acts of terrorism and perils of terrorism and “fire following” (or, in the case of any period of time during which the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 (“TRIA”) or its successors, is in effect, insuring against all “certified acts of terrorism” as defined in TRIA and “fire following”), each in an amount and on terms consistent with the requirements of subsections (i) (ii), (iii), and (x) above. The endorsement or policy shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

[Mortgagor/Grantor] to Agent. Within ten (10) days of request by Agent, [Mortgagor/Grantor] shall deliver to Agent carrier-certified copies of the Policies, provided that the Policies are available.

 

(c)                                  Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] in compliance with the provisions of Section 1.1.1(a) above.

 

(d)                                 All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Section 1.1.1(a) above, except for the Policy referenced in Section 1.1.1(a)(v), shall name [Mortgagor/Grantor] as the insured and Agent and its successors and/or assigns as the additional insured, as their interests may appear, and the Policies referenced in Section 1.1.1(a)(ii) above shall also name each other Secured Party and its successors and/or assigns as additional insureds, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard mortgagee endorsement and loss payable clause in favor of and acceptable to Agent.

 

(e)                                  All Policies of insurance provided for in Section 1.1.1(a) above, except for the Policies referenced in Section 1.1.1(a)(v), shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

 

(i)                                     no act or negligence of [Mortgagor/Grantor], or anyone acting for [Mortgagor/Grantor], or of any tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Agent or any Secured Party is concerned;

 

(ii)                                  the Policy shall not be cancelled without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Agent, with ten (10) days’ written notice permissible for nonpayment of premium, and notwithstanding the fact that liability policies may only provide notice of cancellation to the named insured; and

 

(iii)                               Neither Agent nor any Secured Party shall be a co-insurer and they shall not be liable for any contribution or Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

 

(f)                                    If at any time Agent is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, and such failure continues after written request therefor, Agent shall have the right, without notice to [Mortgagor/Grantor], to take such action as Agent deems necessary to protect its interest in the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property], including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate and all expenses incurred by Agent in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by [Mortgagor/Grantor] to Agent upon demand and until paid shall be secured by this [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] and shall bear interest at the default interest rate specified in the Credit Agreement.

 

(g)                                 In the event of foreclosure of this [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] or other transfer of title to the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Facility, all right, title and interest of [Mortgagor/Grantor] in and to the Policies then in force concerning the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Agent or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

1.1.2                        Insurance Company.  The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the state in which the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] is located and shall be otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Agent, and carry an S&P rating of at least “A-”.  If four or fewer insurance companies issue the policies, then at least 75% of the insurance coverage represented by the policies must be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by S&P, with no carrier below “BBB” by S&P.  If five (5) or more insurance companies issue the policies, then at least sixty percent (60%) of the insurance coverage represented by the policies must be provided by insurance companies with a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by S&P, with no carrier below “BBB” by S&P. Notwithstanding the foregoing, [Mortgagor/Grantor] shall be permitted to maintain the Policies with insurance companies which do not meet the foregoing requirements (an “Otherwise Rated Insurer”), provided [Mortgagor/Grantor] obtains a “cut-through” endorsement (that is, an endorsement which permits recovery against the provider of such endorsement) with respect to any Otherwise Rated Insurer from an insurance company which meets the claims paying ability ratings required above. Also notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent has approved Landmark American Insurance Company, Torus Specialty Insurance Company and Aspen Specialty Insurance Company for this loan so long as they maintain an AM Best rating of at least A- XI by AM Best. Also Approved for this loan is Senior Living Insurance Company Limited, a [Mortgagor/Grantor]-funded captive insurance company that provides coverage to reimburse [Mortgagor/Grantor] for any general liability and professional liability deductibles/retentions.

The Borrower promises to pay to the Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance, Letter of Credit Advance and Swing Line Advance from the date of such Revolving Credit Advance, Letter of Credit Advance or Swing Line Advance, as the case may be, until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates, and payable at such times, as are specified in the Credit Agreement.

The obligations of the Borrower under this Promissory Note and the other Loan Documents, and the obligations of the other Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, are secured by the Collateral as provided in the Loan Documents.

 

This Promissory Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Section 1.                                            Guaranty; Limitation of Liability.  (a)  The undersigned hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrower and each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing Obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such Obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the undersigned’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Loan Party to any Secured Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party.

 



 

(b)                                 The undersigned, and by its acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty Supplement, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty and the Obligations of the undersigned hereunder and thereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty and the Obligations of the undersigned hereunder and thereunder.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the other Secured Parties and the undersigned hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of the undersigned under this Guaranty Supplement and the Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of the undersigned under this Guaranty Supplement and the Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

 

(c)                                  The undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Secured Party under this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty or any other guaranty, the undersigned will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other Guarantor and each other guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Secured Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents.

 

Section 2.                                            Obligations Under the Guaranty.  The undersigned hereby agrees, as of the date first above written, to be bound as a Guarantor by all of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty to the same extent as each of the other Guarantors thereunder.  The undersigned further agrees, as of the date first above written, that each reference in the Credit Agreement to an “Additional Guarantor”, a “Loan Party” or a “Guarantor” shall also mean and be a reference to the undersigned, and each reference in any other Loan Document to a “Guarantor” or a “Loan Party” shall also mean and be a reference to the undersigned.

 

Section 3.                                            Representations and Warranties.  The undersigned hereby makes each representation and warranty set forth in Section 4.01 of the Credit Agreement to the same extent as each other Guarantor; provided, however, that, to the extent there have been any changes in factual matters related to the addition of the undersigned as a Guarantor or the addition of any Asset owned by the undersigned as a Borrowing Base Asset warranting updated Schedules to the Credit Agreement (so long as such changes in factual matters shall in no event comprise a Default or an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement), such updated Schedules are attached as Exhibit A hereto, and references in such representations and warranties to Schedules to the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to such Schedules as so updated.

 

Section 4.                                            Delivery by Telecopier.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Guaranty Supplement by telecopier or e-mail (which e-mail shall include an attachment in PDF format or similar format containing the legible signature of the undersigned) shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Guaranty Supplement.

 

Section 5.                                            Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial, Etc.  (a)  This Guaranty Supplement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

 

(b)                                 The undersigned hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or any federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and the undersigned hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all

 



 

claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court.  The undersigned 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 Guaranty Supplement or the Guaranty or the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty Supplement, the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty thereunder or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

 

(c)                                  The undersigned irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty Supplement, the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party in any New York State or federal court.  The undersigned hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.

 

(d)                                 THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE ADVANCES OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY SECURED PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

 

 

Very truly yours,

6.                                       Upon such acceptance by the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the Borrower and recording by the Administrative Agent, from and after the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments under the Credit Agreement and the Notes in respect of the interest assigned hereby (including, without limitation, all payments of principal, interest and commitment fees with respect thereto) to such Assignee.  Such Assignor and such Assignee shall make all appropriate adjustments in payments under the Credit Agreement and the Notes for periods prior to the Effective Date directly between themselves.

referred to below and to Citibank, N.A.,

as Administrative and Collateral Agent under the

Credit Agreement referred to below

 

Re:  Five Star Quality Care, Inc.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as special [name of State] (the “State”) counsel to Five Star Quality Care, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Borrower”), and [applicable Guarantor] a [              ] [                  ] (“Grantor”) in connection with the execution and delivery of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] referenced below pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of [                    ], 2012 (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among Borrower, the Guarantors identified therein, the Secured Parties (as defined therein), and Citibank, N.A., as collateral agent (in such capacity, “Collateral Agent”) and as administrative agent (in such capacity, “Administrative Agent”) for the Secured Parties.  This opinion is rendered at the request of Borrower pursuant to Section 3.01(a) of the Credit Agreement.  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt], or if not defined therein, in the Credit Agreement.

 

In our capacity as such counsel, we have examined originals, or copies identified to our satisfaction as being true copies, of such records, documents or other instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinions expressed below, including such corporate records and documents of Grantor and such certificates of public officials and officers of Grantor as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion.  These records, documents and instruments also included execution copies or counterparts of the following documents (collectively, the “Subject Documents”):

 

1.             The Credit Agreement; [and]

 

2.             The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt], Assignment of Rents and Leases, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated as of               , 2012 from Grantor, as [mortgagor/grantor], to [                                , as trustee (“Trustee”), for the benefit of] Collateral Agent, as [mortgagee/beneficiary] (the “[Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt]”), encumbering the “Mortgaged Property” described therein[.][; and]

 

3.             [** FOR MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA OR LOUISIANA:  The Uniform Commercial Code Fixture Filing naming Grantor as debtor and Collateral Agent as secured party, relating to the Mortgaged Property (the “Fixture Filing”).**]

 



 

Assumptions

 

In rendering this opinion we have assumed, without having made any independent investigation of the facts, except with respect to matters of State and federal law on which we have opined below, the following:

 

(i)            the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with originals of all documents submitted to us as copies;

 

(ii)           to the extent that the obligations of Grantor may be dependent upon such matters, other than with respect to Grantor, that each party to the agreements and contracts referred to herein is duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation; that each such other party has the requisite corporate or other organizational power and authority to perform its obligations under such agreements and contracts, as applicable; and that such agreements and contracts have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and each of them constitutes the legally valid and binding obligations of, such other parties, as applicable, enforceable against such other parties in accordance with their respective terms;

 

(iii)          that Grantor is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation;

 

(iv)          that Grantor has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Subject Documents to which it is a party;

 

(v)           the due authorization, execution and delivery by Grantor of the Subject Documents to which Grantor is a party;

 

(vi)          that a part or all of the loan proceeds to be advanced pursuant to the Credit Agreement will have been advanced on or before the date hereof;

 

(vii)         that all material factual matters, including without limitation, representations and warranties, contained in the Subject Documents, are true and correct as set forth therein;

 

(viii)        that Grantor, at the time of recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt][**FOR MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA OR LOUISIANA:  and filing of the Fixture Filing**], held an interest of record in the real property portions of the Mortgaged Property owned by Grantor; [and]

 

(ix)           [**FOR MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA OR LOUISIANA:  that the portions of the Fixtures (as defined below) that are or are to become fixtures with respect to the Mortgaged Property are and will be located on the Mortgaged Property; and**]

 

(x)            that the Subject Documents will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State, notwithstanding the provisions of the Subject Documents to the contrary.

Opinions

 

On the basis of such examination, our reliance upon the assumptions contained herein and our consideration of those questions of law we considered relevant, and subject to the limitations and qualifications in this opinion, we are of the opinion that:

 

1.     The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Grantor, enforceable against Grantor in accordance with its terms.

 

2.     The execution and delivery of the Subject Documents, the performance by Grantor of its obligations thereunder and the compliance with the terms and conditions thereof by Grantor are not in contravention of or in conflict with any law, rule or regulation of the State applicable to Grantor.

 

3.     The execution and delivery by [name of Guarantor] of each Loan Document to which it is a party do not, and the performance by [name of Guarantor] of its obligations thereunder and the transactions contemplated by such Loan Documents do not violate any [State] law, rule or regulation applicable to guarantors or grantors generally or applicable to [name of Guarantor].

 

4.     No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any [State] governmental authority or regulatory body is required for (a) the due execution, delivery or performance by [name of Guarantor] of any Loan Document to which it is a party or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by any such Loan Document, (b) the grant by [name of Guarantor] of the Liens granted by it pursuant to the Collateral Documents to which it is a party, or (c) the perfection or maintenance of the Liens created under such Collateral Documents (including the first priority nature thereof), or (d) except for (i) the exercise of any remedies requiring prior court approval, (ii) the filings or other actions referred to in paragraph[s]      herein or (iii) the approval of [State] licensing agencies or permitting boards, the exercise by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of its rights under any Loan Document to which [name of Guarantor] is a party or the remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to any such Collateral Document.

 

5.     The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] (including the acknowledgement, attestation, seal and witness requirements) is in appropriate form for recordation in the State.

 

6.     The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] is in proper form sufficient to create a valid [mortgage lien/deed of trust lien/security title] in favor of Collateral Agent on, and to vest [Trustee and] Collateral Agent with power of sale in, such of the Mortgaged Property described therein that constitutes real property (including fixtures, to the extent the same constitute real property).  The recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] in the [** NAME APPROPRIATE COUNTY RECORDING OFFICE**] is the only recordation, filing or registration necessary to perfect the [lien on/security title in] the Mortgaged Property created by the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] [** FOR MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA OR LOUISIANA:  , except for the filing with the ** NAME APPROPRIATE COUNTY RECORDING OFFICE** of the Fixture Filing regarding that portion of the Mortgaged Property constituting fixtures**].  Upon recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] in the [** NAME APPROPRIATE COUNTY RECORDING OFFICE**], [Trustee/Collateral Agent] will have a valid and perfected [mortgage lien on/deed of trust lien on/security title to] the Mortgaged Property described therein.  No other

 

3



 

recordation, filing, re-recordation or re-filing is necessary in order to perfect or to maintain the priority of the [lien/security title] created by the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt].

 

7.     The real property descriptions attached to the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] [FOR MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA OR LOUISIANA: and the Fixture Filing] are in form legally sufficient for the purpose of subjecting that portion of the Mortgaged Property that constitutes real property to the lien evidenced by the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt][** FOR MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA OR LOUISIANA:  and the Fixture Filing**].

 

8.     [**EXCLUDING MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA AND LOUISIANA** The [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] is in proper form sufficient to constitute a valid and effective fixture filing with respect to the Premises under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State naming Grantor as debtor and Collateral Agent as secured party.

 

9.     Collateral Agent is not required to qualify to transact business in the State nor will Collateral Agent incur any tax imposed by the State (including, without limitation, any tax imposed by the State on interest or on revenue paid in respect of the Credit Agreement), solely as the result of the ownership or recordation of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt].

 

10.   [**FOR MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA OR LOUISIANA:  The Fixture Filing is in appropriate form for recordation in the State.**]

 

11.   [**FOR MICHIGAN, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH DAKOTA OR LOUISIANA:  With respect to that portion of the Mortgaged Property in which a security interest may be perfected by the recordation of a fixture filing in the State (the “Fixtures”), the proper place to file the Fixture Filing is in the [LIST APPROPRIATE COUNTY RECORDING OFFICE] (the “Filing Office”), and no filing or recordation in any other place is necessary under the UCC to perfect a security interest in the Fixtures.  Upon the recordation of the Fixture Filing with the Filing Office, Collateral Agent will have a perfected security interest in the Fixtures.  Subsequent to the recordation of the Fixture Filing in accordance with the procedures set forth above, no other, further or subsequent filing, recordation, registration, re-filing, re-recordation or re-registration of the Fixture Filing or any additional financing statements or any other instrument and no other actions will be necessary or advisable to perfect or continue the perfection of the lien created thereby, except that Article 9 of the UCC requires the recordation of continuation statements within the period of six (6) months prior to the expiration of five (5) years from the date of the original recordation or the recordation of any continuation statement in order to maintain the effectiveness of the Fixture Filing.**]

 

12.   [Except as specifically set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, no] [No] taxes or other charges, including, without limitation, intangible, documentary, stamp, mortgage, transfer or recording taxes or similar charges are payable to the State or to any governmental authority or regulatory body located therein on account of the execution or delivery of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt], or the creation of the liens and security interests thereunder, or the filing, recordation or registration of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt], except for nominal filing or recording fees.

 

13.   Grantor possesses all Healthcare Licenses necessary to operate the Facility as an [independent living/assisted living/Alzheimer’s/memory care — conform as applicable] facility with the respective number of units or beds described on Schedule II of the Credit Agreement.

“Healthcare Licenses” means all certificates of need (or similar), certifications, licenses, permits, or other material approvals or authorizations required by any federal agency and/or [State] as a condition precedent to the operation of the Facility as an [independent living/assisted living/Alzheimer’s/memory care — conform as applicable] facility with the respective number of units or beds described on Schedule II of the Credit Agreement.

 

Qualifications

 

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following qualifications, limitations and exceptions:

 

1.     Qualifying paragraph 1 above, the enforceability of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] and the liens created thereby may be limited or affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and by general principles of equity including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.  The aforesaid opinion as to enforceability of the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] is also subject to the qualification that certain provisions contained therein may not be enforceable, but (subject to the limitations set forth in the foregoing sentence) such unenforceability will not render the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt] invalid as a whole or substantially interfere with realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby.

 

2.     In rendering the opinions expressed in this opinion letter, we have made no examination of and express no opinion with respect to:  (i) title to or, except as to adequacy of form, descriptions of the Mortgaged Property described in the [Mortgage/Deed of Trust/Deed to Secure Debt]; (ii) the nature or extent of Grantor’s rights in, or title to, the Mortgaged Property; (iii) the existence or non-existence of liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances thereon or therein actually of record; or (iv) the priority of any liens on any part of the Mortgaged Property.  We have not independently certified the existence, condition, location or ownership of any of the Mortgaged Property.

 

This opinion is given as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any obligation to update this opinion letter for events occurring after the date of this opinion letter.  The foregoing opinion applies only with respect to the laws of the State and the federal laws of the United States of America and we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

This opinion is rendered only to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns (including any participant in any Secured Party’s interest) and is solely for their benefit in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Subject Documents and may not be relied upon by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective successors or assigns for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

 

 

Very truly yours,

SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

SECURITY AGREEMENT dated April 13, 2012 (this “Agreement”) among FIVE STAR QUALITY CARE, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), [insert names of Guarantors under the Credit Agreement] and the ADDITIONAL GRANTORS (as defined in Section 21)(each such Guarantor or Additional Grantor referred to herein as a “Guarantor Grantor”, collectively, the “Guarantor Grantors”, and collectively together with the Borrower, the “Grantors”), and CITIBANK, N.A., as collateral agent (in such capacity, together with any successor collateral agent appointed pursuant to Article VIII of the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined), the “Collateral Agent”) for the Secured Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

 

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

 

(1)   The Grantors and certain other Loan Parties have entered into a Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2012 (such Agreement, as it may hereafter be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) with the Lender Parties, the Agents, and the Arrangers (each as defined therein).

 

(2)   Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Grantors are entering into this Agreement in order to grant to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties a security interest in the Collateral (as hereinafter defined).

 

(3)   Upon the request of the Collateral Agent, the Borrower shall open a letter of credit cash collateral deposit account, (the “L/C Cash Collateral Account”), with Citibank, N.A. in New York, New York, in the name of the Collateral Agent and under the sole control and dominion of the Collateral Agent and subject to the terms of this Agreement.

 

(4)   It is a condition precedent to the making of Advances and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Lender Parties under the Credit Agreement from time to time that the Grantors shall have executed and delivered this Agreement to the Administrative Agent.

 

(5)   Each Grantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

 

(6)   Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have their respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.  Further, unless otherwise defined in this Agreement or in the Credit Agreement, terms defined in Article 8 or 9 of the UCC (as defined below) are used in this Agreement as such terms are defined in such Article 8 or 9.  “UCC” means the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect, from time to time, in the State of New York; provided, however, that, if perfection or the effect of perfection or non-perfection or the priority of any security interest in any Collateral is governed by the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in a jurisdiction other than the State of New York, “UCC” means the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in such other jurisdiction for purposes of the provisions hereof relating to such perfection, effect of perfection or non-perfection or priority.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, in order to induce the Lender Parties to make Advances and issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement from time to time, and for good and valuable other consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby conclusively acknowledged, each Grantor hereby agrees with the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties as follows:

(d)   all “general intangibles,” as such term is defined in the UCC, of such Guarantor Grantor and, which, shall include, without limitation, (i) all of such Guarantor Grantor’s rights, title and interest in, to and under all contracts and insurance policies (including all rights and remedies relating to monetary damages, including indemnification rights and remedies, and claims for damages or other relief pursuant to or in respect of any contract), (ii) all know-how and warranties relating to any of the Collateral or any Borrowing Base Asset, (iii) any and all other rights, claims, choses-in-action and causes of action of such Guarantor Grantor against any other person and the benefits of any and all collateral or other security given by any other person in connection therewith, (iv) all guarantees, endorsements and indemnifications on, or of, any of the Collateral or any of the Borrowing Base Assets, (v) all lists, books, records, (including but not limited to billing and related records) correspondence, ledgers, printouts, files (whether in printed

Section 1.1 and this clause (h)) and, to the extent not otherwise included, all (A) payments under insurance (whether or not the Collateral Agent is the loss payee thereof), or any indemnity, warranty or guaranty, payable by reason of loss or damage to or otherwise with respect to any of the foregoing Guarantor Collateral, (B) tort claims, including, without limitation, all commercial tort claims and (C) cash.

 

Section 1.2             Borrower Account Collateral.  In addition, the Borrower hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to:

(i)            the L/C Cash Collateral Account and all funds and financial assets from time to time credited thereto (including, without limitation, all Cash Equivalents), all interest, dividends, distributions, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such funds and financial assets, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the L/C Cash Collateral Account;

 

(ii)           all promissory notes, certificates of deposit, deposit accounts, checks and other instruments from time to time delivered to or otherwise possessed by the Collateral Agent for or on behalf of such Grantor, including, without limitation, those delivered or possessed in substitution for or in addition to any or all of the then existing Borrower Account Collateral; and

 

(iii)          all interest, dividends, distributions, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the then existing collateral described in subsections 1.2(a)(i) and (ii) above;

 

(b)   all proceeds of, collateral for, income, royalties and other payments now or hereafter due and payable with respect to, and supporting obligations relating to, any and all of the Borrower Account Collateral (including, without limitation, proceeds, collateral and supporting obligations that constitute property of the types described in clause (a) of this Section 1.2 and this clause (b)) and, to the extent not otherwise included, all cash;

 

in each case, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower, wherever located, and whether now or hereafter existing or arising (the Borrower Account Collateral together with the Guarantor Grantor Account Collateral, the “Account Collateral”) (the Borrower Account Collateral together with the Guarantor Grantor Collateral, the “Collateral”).

 

Section 1.3             Scope of Grant.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Collateral include or the security interest granted under Section 1.1 and Section 1.2 attach to any agreement, permit, consent, order or franchise covering real or personal property of any Grantor, and any of its rights or interest thereunder, if and to the extent that the grant of a security interest or lien is prohibited by or in violation of (y) any law, rule, regulation or order, or (z) a term, provision or condition of any such agreement, permit, consent, order or franchise (unless such law, rule, regulation, term, provision or condition would be rendered ineffective with respect to the creation of the security interest hereunder pursuant to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the UCC (or any successor provision or provisions) of any relevant jurisdiction or any other applicable law (including any Bankruptcy Law) or principles of equity) and such provision or condition has not been waived or the consent of the other party

 

4



 

to such agreement, permit, consent, order or franchise has not been obtained; provided, however, that the Collateral shall include (and such security interest shall attach) immediately at such time as the contractual or legal prohibition shall no longer be applicable and to the extent severable, shall attach immediately to any portion of such agreement, permit, consent, order or franchise not subject to the prohibitions specified in (y) or (z) above; provided further that the exclusions referred to in this paragraph shall not include any proceeds of any such agreement, permit, consent, order or franchise.

 

Section 2.       Security for Obligations.  This Agreement secures the payment of all Obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest, fees, premiums, penalties, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (all such Obligations being the “Secured Obligations”).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures, as to each Grantor, the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by such Grantor to any Secured Party under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving a Loan Party.

 

Section 3.       Grantors Remain Liable.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in such Grantor’s Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral and (c) no Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral solely by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

 

Section 4.       Maintaining the Account Collateral.  So long as any Advance or any other Obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding, or any Lender Party shall have any Commitment:

 

(a)   The Borrower will maintain the L/C Cash Collateral Account only with the Collateral Agent.

 

(b)   The Collateral Agent may, at any time and without notice to, or consent from, the Borrower or any Grantor, transfer, or direct the transfer of, funds from the Account Collateral to satisfy the Borrower’s or such Grantor’s obligations under the Loan Documents if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

 

Section 5.       Investing of Amounts in the L/C Cash Collateral Account.  The Collateral Agent will, subject to the provisions of Sections 4, 6 and 19, from time to time (a) (i) invest amounts received with respect to the L/C Cash Collateral Account in such Cash Equivalents credited to the L/C Cash Collateral Account as the Borrower may select and the Collateral Agent may approve in its reasonable discretion, and (ii) invest interest paid on the Cash Equivalents referred to in clause (a)(i) above, in accordance with such clause (a)(i) and (b) reinvest other proceeds of any such Cash Equivalents that may mature or be sold, in each case in such Cash Equivalents credited to the L/C Cash Collateral Account in the same manner.  Interest and proceeds that are not invested or reinvested in Cash Equivalents as provided above shall be deposited and held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account.  In addition, the Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange such Cash Equivalents for similar Cash Equivalents of smaller or larger determinations, or for other Cash Equivalents, credited to

 

5



 

the L/C Cash Collateral Account; provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may select such Cash Equivalents with the Collateral Agent’s approval in its reasonable discretion.

 

Section 6.       Release of Amounts.  So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent will pay and release to the Borrower or the relevant Grantor or at the Borrower’s order or, at the request of the Borrower, to the Collateral Agent to be applied to the Obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents, such amount, if any, as is then on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, in each case to the extent permitted to be released under the terms of the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 7.       Maintaining Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records.  So long as any Advance or any other Obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding, or any Lender Party shall have any Commitment:

 

(a)           Each Guarantor Grantor will maintain all (i) electronic chattel paper so that the Collateral Agent has control of the electronic chattel paper in the manner specified in Section 9-105 of the UCC and (ii) all transferable records so that the Collateral Agent has control of the transferable records in the manner specified in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as in effect in the jurisdiction governing such transferable record (“UETA”); and

 

(b)                                                         Each Guarantor Grantor will as soon as reasonably practicable give notice to the Collateral Agent of any material commercial tort claim (as defined in Section 9-102(13) of the UCC) of any Guarantor Grantor and will immediately execute or otherwise authenticate a supplement to this Agreement, and otherwise take all necessary action, to subject such commercial tort claim to the first priority security interest created under this Agreement.

 

Section 8.       Representations and Warranties.  Each Grantor represents and warrants as follows:

 

(a)   Such Grantor’s exact legal name is correctly set forth in Schedule I hereto.  Such Grantor is located (within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the UCC) and has its chief executive office, all original copies of each Assigned Agreement and Related Contract to which such Grantor (if a Guarantor Grantor) is a party, and all originals of all chattel paper that evidence Receivables of such Grantor, in the state or jurisdiction set forth in Schedule I hereto.  The information set forth in Schedule I hereto with respect to such Grantor is true and accurate in all respects.  Such Grantor has not previously changed its name, location, chief executive office, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or organizational identification number from those set forth in Schedule I hereto except as disclosed in Schedule III hereto.

(f)    As of the date of this Agreement, such Grantor (if a Guarantor Grantor) is not a beneficiary or assignee under any letter of credit.

 

(g)   All filings necessary to perfect the security interest in the Collateral of such Grantor created under this Agreement have been duly made or taken and are in full force and effect, and this Agreement creates in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a valid and, together with such filings, perfected first priority security interest in all Collateral of such Grantor that may be perfected by the filing of UCC-1 financing statements, securing the payment of the Secured Obligations.

 

(h)   No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for (i) the grant by such Grantor of the security interest granted hereunder or for the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by such Grantor, (ii) the perfection or maintenance of the security interest created hereunder (including the first priority nature of such security interest), except for the filing of financing and continuation statements under the UCC, the filing of which have been duly authorized, (iii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its rights provided for in this Agreement or the remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, except as may be required in connection with the disposition of any portion of the Collateral consisting of securities, security entitlements or pledged financial assets by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally, compliance with any applicable healthcare licensing requirements, and notices and other actions contemplated by this Agreement.

Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any pledge or security interest granted or purported to be granted by such Grantor hereunder or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral of such Grantor.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor will, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, promptly with respect to Collateral of such Grantor:  (i) mark conspicuously each document included in Inventory, each chattel paper included in Receivables, each Related Contract, each Assigned Agreement and each of its records pertaining to such Collateral with a legend, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, indicating that such document, chattel paper, Related Contract, Assigned Agreement or Collateral is subject to the security interest granted hereby; (ii) except as contemplated by Section 9(c), if any such Collateral shall be evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument, deliver and pledge to the Collateral Agent hereunder such note or instrument duly indorsed in blank and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; (iii) execute or authenticate and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the security interest granted or purported to be granted by Grantor hereunder; (iv) deliver and pledge to the Collateral Agent for benefit of the Secured Parties certificates representing any Collateral consisting of certificated securities, accompanied by undated stock or bond powers executed in blank; (v) take all action necessary to ensure that the Collateral Agent has control of the Account Collateral, electronic chattel paper, investment property (upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default), transferable records as provided in Sections 9-104, 9-105 and 9-106 of the UCC and Section 16 of UETA; (vi) at the request of the Collateral Agent, take all action to ensure that the Collateral Agent’s security interest is noted on any certificate of ownership related to any Collateral evidenced by a certificate of ownership; and (vii) deliver to the Collateral Agent evidence that all other action that the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to perfect and protect the security interest created by Grantor under this Agreement has been taken.

 

(b)   Each Guarantor Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, including, without limitation, one or more financing statements indicating that such financing statements cover all assets or all personal property (or words of similar effect) of such Guarantor Grantor (exclusive of agreements that by their terms prohibit the creation of a Lien thereon, but only to the extent, and for so long as, such prohibition is not terminated or rendered unenforceable or otherwise deemed ineffective by the UCC or any other applicable law), in each case without the signature of such Grantor, and regardless of whether any particular asset described in such financing statements falls within the scope of the UCC or the granting clause of this Agreement.  A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law. Each Grantor ratifies its authorization for the Collateral Agent to have filed such financing statements, continuation statements or amendments filed prior to the date hereof.

 

(c)   Each Grantor will furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral of such Grantor and such other reports in connection with such Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

 

(d)   If at any time any amount then payable under or in connection with any of the Receivables or Agreement Collateral shall be evidenced by any promissory note or other instrument, and such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by any promissory

note or other instrument not previously delivered to the Collateral Agent exceeds $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Grantors, the Grantor acquiring such promissory note or other instrument shall promptly (but in any event within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time specify.

 

(e)   If after the date hereof any Grantor becomes a beneficiary under a letter of credit now or hereafter issued, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and such Grantor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at the request of the Collateral Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit are to be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement. The actions in the preceding sentence shall not be required to the extent that the amount of any such Letter of Credit, together with the aggregate amount of all other letters of credit for which the actions described above in clauses (i) and (ii) have not been taken, does not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Grantors.

 

Section 10.     As to Equipment and Inventory.(a)  Each Guarantor Grantor will keep the Equipment and Inventory of such Grantor (other than any Equipment or Inventory transferred in accordance with Section 5.02(e)(ii) or Section 5.02(e)(iii) of the Credit Agreement) at the places therefor specified in Section 8(b).

 

(b)   Each Guarantor Grantor will cause the Equipment of such Grantor to be maintained and preserved in the same condition, repair and working order as when new, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and will forthwith, or in the case of any loss or damage to any of such Equipment as soon as practicable after the occurrence thereof, make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and other improvements in connection therewith that are necessary or desirable to such end.  Each Guarantor Grantor will promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent a statement respecting any loss or damage exceeding $1,000,000 to any of the Equipment or Inventory of such Grantor.

 

(c)   Each Guarantor Grantor will pay promptly when due all property and other taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon, and all claims (including, without limitation, claims for labor, materials and supplies) against, the Equipment and Inventory of such Grantor, except to the extent payment thereof is not required by Section 5.01(b) of the Credit Agreement.  In producing its Inventory, each Guarantor Grantor will comply with all requirements of applicable law, including, without limitation, the Fair Labor Standards Act.

 

Section 11.     Insurance.(a)  Each Guarantor Grantor will, at its own expense, maintain insurance with respect to the Equipment and Inventory of such Guarantor Grantor in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with such insurers, as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent from time to time.  Each policy of each Guarantor Grantor for liability insurance shall provide for all losses to be paid on behalf of the Collateral Agent and such Guarantor Grantor as their interests may appear, and each policy for property damage insurance shall provide for all losses (except for losses of less than $1,000,000 per occurrence) to be paid directly to the Collateral Agent.  Each such policy shall in addition (i) name such Guarantor Grantor and the Collateral Agent as insured parties thereunder (without any representation or warranty by or obligation upon the Collateral Agent) as their interests may

appear, (ii) contain the agreement by the insurer that any loss thereunder shall be payable to the Collateral Agent notwithstanding any action, inaction or breach of representation or warranty by such Guarantor Grantor, (iii) provide that there shall be no recourse against the Collateral Agent for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto and (iv) provide that at least 10 days’ prior written notice of cancellation or of lapse shall be given to the Collateral Agent by the insurer.  Each Guarantor Grantor will, if so requested by the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent original or duplicate policies of such insurance and, as often as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, a report of a reputable insurance broker with respect to such insurance.  Further, each Guarantor Grantor will, at the request of the Collateral Agent, duly execute and deliver instruments of assignment of such insurance policies to comply with the requirements of Section 9 and cause the insurers to acknowledge notice of such assignment.

 

(b)   Reimbursement under any liability insurance maintained by any Grantor pursuant to this Section 11 may be paid directly to the Person who shall have incurred liability covered by such insurance.  In case of any loss involving damage to Equipment or Inventory when subsection (c) of this Section 11 is not applicable, the applicable Grantor will make or cause to be made the necessary repairs to or replacements of such Equipment or Inventory, and any proceeds of insurance properly received by or released to such Grantor shall be used by such Grantor, except as otherwise required hereunder or by the Credit Agreement, to pay or as reimbursement for the costs of such repairs or replacements.

 

(c)   So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all insurance payments received by the Collateral Agent in connection with any loss, damage or destruction of any Inventory or Equipment will be released by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the applicable Grantor within a reasonably prompt period of time from a request therefor for the repair, replacement or restoration thereof, subject to such terms and conditions with respect to the release thereof as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require, including, without limitation, that such payments be made directly by the Collateral Agent to the applicable contractors performing the repair, replacement and restoration work.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all insurance payments in respect of such Equipment or Inventory shall be paid to the Collateral Agent and shall be, in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, (i) released to the applicable Grantor to be applied as set forth in the first sentence of this subsection (c) or (ii) applied as specified in Section 19(b).

 

Section 12.     Post-Closing Changes; Bailees; Collections on Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts.(a)  No Grantor will change its name, type of organization, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number or location from those set forth in Section 8(a) of this Agreement without first giving at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent and taking all action required by the Collateral Agent for the purpose of perfecting or protecting the security interest granted by this Agreement.  No Guarantor Grantor will change the location of its Equipment and Inventory (other than Inventory sold in the ordinary course of business) or the place where it keeps the originals of the Assigned Agreements and Related Contracts to which such Grantor is a party and the originals of all chattel paper that evidence Receivables of such Grantor from the locations therefor specified in Sections 8(a) and 8(b) without first giving the Collateral Agent 30 days’ prior written notice of such change.  Except as not otherwise prohibited by the Credit Agreement, no Grantor will become bound by a security agreement authenticated by another Person (determined as provided in Section 9-203(d) of the UCC) without giving the Collateral Agent 30 days’ prior written notice thereof and taking all action required by the Collateral Agent to ensure that the perfection and first priority nature of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral will be maintained.  Each Grantor will hold and preserve its records relating to the Collateral, including, without limitation, the Assigned Agreements and

 

10



 

Related Contracts, and will, upon reasonable notice, permit representatives of the Collateral Agent at any time during normal business hours to inspect and make abstracts from such records and other documents.  If the Grantor does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, it will forthwith notify the Collateral Agent of such organizational identification number.

 

(b)   If any Collateral of any Guarantor Grantor is at any time in the possession or control of a warehouseman, bailee or agent, such Grantor will, upon the request of the Collateral Agent (i) notify such warehouseman, bailee or agent of the security interest created hereunder, (ii) instruct such warehouseman, bailee or agent to hold all such Collateral solely for the Collateral Agent’s account subject only to the Collateral Agent’s instructions (which shall permit such Collateral to be removed by such Grantor in the ordinary course of business until the Collateral Agent notifies such warehouseman, bailee or agent that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts, to cause such warehouseman, bailee or agent to authenticate a record acknowledging that it holds possession of such Collateral for the Collateral Agent’s benefit and shall act solely on the instructions of the Collateral Agent without the further consent of the Grantor or any other Person, and (iv) make such authenticated record available to the Collateral Agent.

 

(c)   Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (c), each Guarantor Grantor will continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due such Grantor under the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts.  In connection with such collections, such Grantor may take (and at the Collateral Agent’s reasonable direction will take) such action as such Grantor or Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, and upon written notice to such Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify the Obligors under any Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts of the assignment of such Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts to the Collateral Agent and to direct such Obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts, to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done, and to otherwise exercise all rights with respect to such Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts, including, without limitation, those set forth set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC.  After receipt by any Grantor of the notice from the Collateral Agent referred to in the proviso to the preceding sentence, (i) all amounts and proceeds (including, without limitation, instruments) received by such Grantor in respect of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts of such Grantor shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement) and applied as provided in Section 19(b) and (ii) such Grantor will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable or amount due on any Assigned Agreement or Related Contract, release wholly or partly any Obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon.  No Grantor will permit or consent to the subordination of its right to payment under any of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts to any other indebtedness or obligations of the Obligor thereof.

 

Section 13.     As to the Assigned Agreements.(a)  Each Guarantor Grantor will at its expense (i) perform and observe all terms and provisions of the Assigned Agreements to be performed or

 

11



 

observed by it, and, except as otherwise permitted by Section 13(b) hereof, maintain the Assigned Agreements to which it is party in full force and effect, enforce the Assigned Agreements to which it is a party in the best interests of the applicable Borrowing Base Asset, all in accordance with the terms thereof and in accordance with sound business judgment and take all such action to such end as may be requested from time to time by the Collateral Agent, and (ii) furnish to the Collateral Agent promptly upon receipt thereof copies of all notices, requests and other documents received by such Grantor under or pursuant to the Assigned Agreements to which it is a party, and from time to time (A) furnish to the Collateral Agent such information and reports regarding the Assigned Agreements and such other Collateral of such Grantor as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request and (B) upon request of the Collateral Agent make to each other party to any Assigned Agreement to which it is a party such demands and requests for information and reports or for action as such Grantor is entitled to make thereunder.

 

(b)   Each Guarantor Grantor agrees that it will not, except to the extent otherwise not prohibited by the Credit Agreement:

 

(i)            cancel or terminate any Assigned Agreement to which it is a party or consent to or accept any cancellation or termination thereof;

 

(ii)           amend, amend and restate, supplement or otherwise modify any such Assigned Agreement or give any consent, waiver or approval thereunder (unless otherwise required to do so pursuant to the terms thereof) that would impair the value of the interests or rights of Grantor thereunder or that would impair the interests or rights of any Secured Party, in either case, in any material respect;

 

(iii)          waive any default under or breach of any such Assigned Agreement; or

 

(iv)          take any other action in connection with any such Assigned Agreement that would impair the value of the interests or rights of such Grantor thereunder or that would impair the interests or rights of any Secured Party, in either case, in any material respect.

 

(c)   Each Grantor hereby consents on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries to the assignment and pledge to the Collateral Agent for benefit of the Secured Parties of each Assigned Agreement to which it is a party by any other Grantor hereunder.

 

Section 14.     Payments Under the Assigned Agreements.(a)  Each Grantor agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all payments due or to become due to such Grantor under or in connection with such Assigned Agreement will be made in accordance with the instructions of the Collateral Agent.

 

(b)   All moneys received or collected pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be applied as provided in Section 19(b).

 

Section 15.     Transfers and Other Liens; Additional Equity Interests.(a)  Each Grantor agrees that it will not (i) sell, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral, other than sales, assignments and other dispositions of Collateral, and options relating to Collateral, permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement, or (ii) create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral except for the pledge, assignment and security interest created under this Agreement and Liens permitted under Section 5.02(a) of the Credit Agreement.

 

12



 

(b)   No Grantor shall permit to become effective in any document creating, governing or providing for any permit, license or agreement benefitting such Grantor or any of its Affiliates, a provision that would prohibit the creation of a Lien on such permit, license or agreement in favor of the Collateral Agent unless such provision is customary and reasonably necessary in the ordinary course of business of such Grantor.

 

Section 16.     Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Collateral Agent’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

 

(a)   to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 11,

 

(b)   to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral,

 

(c)   to receive, indorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a) or (b) above, and

 

(d)   to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce compliance with the terms and conditions of any Assigned Agreement or the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral.

 

Section 17.     Collateral Agent May Perform.  If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent may, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, but without any obligation to do so and without notice, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor under Section 20.

 

Section 18.     The Collateral Agent’s Duties.(a)  The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.  Except for (i) the exercise of reasonable care with respect to, and the safe custody of, any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, and (ii) liability for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Collateral Agent’s officers, directors, agents or employees, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.  The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property.

 

(b)   Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent may from time to time, when the Collateral Agent deems it to be necessary, appoint one or more

 

13



 

subagents (each, a “Subagent”) for the Collateral Agent hereunder with respect to all or any part of the Collateral.  In the event that the Collateral Agent so appoints any Subagent with respect to any Collateral, (i) the assignment and pledge of such Collateral and the security interest granted in such Collateral by each Grantor hereunder shall be deemed for purposes of this Security Agreement to have been made to such Subagent, in addition to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Secured Obligations of such Grantor, (ii) such Subagent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Collateral Agent, with all rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder with respect to such Collateral, and (iii) the term “Collateral Agent,” when used herein in relation to any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral, shall include such Subagent; provided, however, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent.

 

Section 19.     Remedies.  If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

 

(a)   The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may:  (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral, to the extent such Collateral is susceptible of assembly, as directed in writing by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place and time to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable; (iii) peaceably occupy any premises owned or leased by any of the Guarantor Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; and (iv) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (A) any and all rights of such Grantor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provision of, the Assigned Agreements, the Receivables, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, (B) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Account Collateral, (C) without notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against any funds held with respect to the Collateral in any deposit account and (D) exercise all other rights and remedies with respect to the Assigned Agreements, the Receivables, the Related Contracts and the other Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC.  Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.  The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.  The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

 

(b)   Any cash held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent and all cash proceeds received by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other

 

14



 

realization upon all or any part of the Collateral will be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 20) by the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties against the Secured Obligations, in the following manner:

 

(i)            first, paid to the Agents for any amounts then owing to the Agents pursuant to Section 9.04 of the Credit Agreement or otherwise under the Loan Documents, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then owing to the Agents; and

 

(ii)           second, ratably (A) paid to the Lender Parties for any amounts then owing to them under the Loan Documents ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then owing to such Lender Parties and (B) deposited as Collateral in the L/C Cash Collateral Account up to an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate Available Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, provided that in the event that any such Letter of Credit is drawn, the Collateral Agent shall pay to the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit the amount held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account in respect of such Letter of Credit, provided further that, to the extent that any such Letter of Credit shall expire or terminate undrawn and as a result thereof the amount of the Collateral in the L/C Cash Collateral Account shall exceed 100% of the aggregate Available Amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit, such excess amount of such Collateral shall be applied in accordance with the remaining order of priority set out in this Section 19(b).

 

Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by or on the behalf of the Collateral Agent and remaining after payment in full of all the Secured Obligations shall be paid over to the applicable Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

 

(c)   All payments received by any Grantor under or in connection with any Assigned Agreement or otherwise in respect of the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement).

 

(d)   The Collateral Agent may, without notice to any Grantor except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against any funds held by it or another Secured Party with respect to the Account Collateral or in any other deposit account.

 

Section 20.     Indemnity and Expenses.(a)  Each Grantor agrees to indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Secured Party and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or resulting from this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

(b)   Each Grantor will upon demand pay to the Collateral Agent the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the

 

15



 

sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Collateral of such Grantor, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties hereunder or (iv) the failure by such Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

 

Section 21.     Amendments; Waivers; Additional Grantors, Etc.  (a)  No amendment shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

 

(b)  Upon the execution and delivery, or authentication, by any Person of a security agreement supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Security Agreement Supplement”), (i) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Grantor” and shall be and become a Grantor hereunder, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to “Grantor” or “Guarantor Grantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Grantor,  and each reference in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to “Collateral” shall also mean and be a reference to the Collateral of such Additional Grantor, and (ii) the supplemental schedules I-III attached to each Security Agreement Supplement (the “Supplemental Schedules”) shall be incorporated into and become a part of and supplement Schedules I-III, respectively, hereto (the “Schedules”), and the Collateral Agent may attach such Supplemental Schedules to such Schedules; and each reference to such Schedules shall mean and be a reference to such Schedules as supplemented pursuant to each Security Agreement Supplement.

 

Section 22.     Notices, Etc.  All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement.  Delivery by telecopier or email (in .pdf or similar electronic format) of an executed counterpart of any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of any Security Agreement Supplement or the Schedules hereto shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart thereof.

 

Section 23.     Continuing Security Interest; Assignments under the Credit Agreement.  This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations, (ii) the Termination Date and (iii) the termination or expiration or cash collateralization on terms satisfactory to the Collateral Agent of all Letters of Credit, (b) be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes, if any, held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 9.07 of the Credit Agreement.

hereby; provided, however, that (i) at the time of such request and such release no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such Grantor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release describing the item of Collateral and the terms of the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition in reasonable detail, including a form of release for execution by the Collateral Agent and a certificate of Grantor to the effect that the transaction is in compliance with the Loan Documents and as to such other matters as the Collateral Agent may request.

 

(b)   Upon any Transfer of a Borrowing Base Asset or designation of a Borrowing Base Asset as a non-Borrowing Base Asset in accordance with Section 5.02(e)(iii) of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent will, at such Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the release of any item of Collateral related to such Borrowing Base Asset from the assignment and security interest granted hereby; provided, however, that (i) at the time of such request and such release no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result from such Transfer and (ii) such Grantor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release describing the item of Collateral, including a form of release for execution by the Collateral Agent.

 

(c)   Upon the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations, (ii) the Termination Date and (iii) the termination or expiration or cash collateralization on terms satisfactory to the Collateral Agent of all Letters of Credit, the pledge and security interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Grantor.  Upon any such termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the applicable Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

 

Upon the effectiveness of any release of the security interest granted herein in any Collateral, Collateral Agent shall promptly authorize Borrower or the applicable Guarantor Grantor to file any UCC amendments terminating any financing statements filed by the Collateral Agent to perfect its security interest in such Collateral granted under any of the Security Documents.

 

Section 25.     Security Interest Absolute.  The obligations of each Grantor under this Agreement are independent of the Secured Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Grantor to enforce this Agreement, irrespective of whether any action is brought against such Grantor or any other Loan Party or whether such Grantor or any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions.  All rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and the pledge, assignment and security interest hereunder, and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder, shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) any defenses it may now have or may hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

 

(a)   any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

 

(b)   any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Secured

 

17


 


 

Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise;

 

(c)   any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral or any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Secured Obligations;

 

(d)   any manner of application of any Collateral or any other collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral or any other collateral for all or any of the Secured Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents or any other assets of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

 

(e)   any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

 

(f)    any failure of any Secured Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, assets, nature of assets, liabilities or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to such Secured Party (each Grantor waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information);

 

(g)   the failure of any other Person to execute this Agreement or any other Collateral Document, guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any Grantor or other grantor or surety with respect to the Secured Obligations; or

 

(h)   any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Secured Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Grantor or any other Grantor or a third party grantor of a security interest.

 

This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Secured Party or by any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

 

Section 26.     Third Party Waivers (a).  Each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to perform any or all of the following acts at any time in its sole discretion, all without notice to any Grantor, without affecting such Grantor’s obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents and without affecting the liens and encumbrances against the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent:

 

(i)            Subject to Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent may alter any terms of the Obligations or any part thereof, including renewing, compromising, extending or accelerating, or otherwise changing the time for payment of, or increasing or decreasing the rate of interest on, the Obligations or any part thereof.

 

(ii)           The Collateral Agent may take and hold security for the Obligations, accept additional or substituted security, and subordinate, exchange, enforce, waive, release, compromise, fail to perfect and sell or otherwise dispose of any such security.

 

18



 

(iii)          The Collateral Agent may direct the order and manner of any sale of all or any part of any security now or later to be held for the Obligations, and the Collateral Agent (or its nominees or designees) may also bid at any such sale.

 

(iv)          The Collateral Agent may apply any payments or recoveries from any Borrower, any Grantor or any other source, and any proceeds of any security, to the obligations under the Loan Documents in such manner, order and priority as the Collateral Agent may elect.

 

(v)           The Collateral Agent may release any Borrower or any other person or entity of its liability for the Obligations or any part thereof.

 

(vi)          The Collateral Agent may substitute, add or release any one or more guarantors or endorsers.

 

(vii)         In addition to the Obligations, the Collateral Agent may extend other credit to any Borrower, and may take and hold security for the credit so extended.

 

(b)   Each Grantor waives:

 

(i)            Any right it may have to require the Collateral Agent to proceed against any Borrower, any Grantor or any other person or entity, proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any Grantor or any person or entity, or pursue any other remedy in the Collateral Agent’s power to pursue;

 

(ii)           Any defense based on any claim that any Grantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of any Borrower, any Grantor or any other Person;

 

(iii)          Any defense:  (A) based on any legal disability of any other Person, (B) based on any release, discharge, modification, impairment or limitation of the liability of any other person or entity to the Collateral Agent from any cause, whether consented to by the Collateral Agent or arising by operation of law, (C) arising out of or able to be asserted as a result of any case, action or proceeding before any court or other governmental authority relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, dissolution, winding-up or relief of any other person or entity or any of their respective affiliates, or any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, composition, marshaling of assets for creditors or other, similar arrangement in respect of its creditors generally or any substantial portion of its creditors; in each case as undertaken under any U.S. Federal or State law (each of the foregoing described in this clause (C) being referred to herein as an “Insolvency Proceeding”); or (D) arising from any rejection or disaffirmance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, or any security held therefor, in any such Insolvency Proceeding;

 

(iv)          Any defense based on any action taken or omitted by the Collateral Agent in any Insolvency Proceeding involving any other Person, including any election to have the Collateral Agent’s claim allowed as being secured, partially secured or unsecured, any extension of credit by the Collateral Agent to any other Person in any Insolvency Proceeding, and the taking and holding by the Collateral Agent of any security for any such extension of credit;

 

(v)           All presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of intention to accelerate, notices of acceleration, notices of acceptance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and of the existence,

 

19



 

creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness, and demands and notices of every kind (except or expressly required by the Loan Documents); and

 

(vi)          Except for such notices as required by the Loan Documents, any defense based on or arising out of any defense that the Borrower or any of its affiliates may have to the payment or performance of the Obligations (other than the defense that the Obligations have been paid in full).

 

(c)   (i) After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in its sole discretion, without prior notice (except as required by applicable law) to or consent of any Grantor or any Borrower, the Collateral Agent may elect to:  (A) foreclose against any Collateral for the Secured Obligations, (B) accept any offer to transfer any such Collateral for the Secured Obligations in lieu of foreclosure, (C) compromise or adjust the Secured Obligations or any part thereof or make any other accommodation with any Borrower or any Person, or (D) exercise any other remedy against any Borrower or any person or entity or any collateral for the Secured Obligations.  No such action by the Collateral Agent shall release or limit the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, even if the effect of the action is to deprive Grantor of any subrogation rights, rights of indemnity, or other rights to collect reimbursement from any Borrower or any other Person for any sums paid to the Collateral Agent, whether contractual or arising by operation of law or otherwise.  Each Grantor expressly agrees that under no circumstances shall such Grantor be deemed to have any right, title, interest or claim in or to any real or personal property to be held by the Collateral Agent or any third party after any foreclosure or transfer in lieu of foreclosure of any security for the Secured Obligations in accordance with this Agreement and applicable law.

 

(ii)           Subject to the full, final and indefeasible payment of all Secured Obligations to the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall retain its rights to seek contribution and reimbursement from, and rights of subrogation with respect to, any other Grantor to the extent the Secured Obligations hereunder render such Grantor insolvent.  Such rights of subrogation, contribution and reimbursement shall be subordinate to the Secured Obligations, and no Grantor shall enforce any such rights until the Secured Obligations shall have been finally paid in full.

 

Section 27.     Execution in Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or email (in .pdf or similar electronic format) shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.

 

Section 28.     The Credit Agreement and the Mortgages.  If any conflict or inconsistency exists between this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall control and govern to the extent of such inconsistency.  In the event that any of the Collateral hereunder is also subject to a valid and enforceable Lien under the terms of any Mortgage and the terms of such Mortgage are inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, then with respect to such Collateral, the terms of such Mortgage shall be controlling in the case of fixtures and real estate leases, letting and licenses of, and contracts and agreements relating to the lease of, real property, and the terms of this Agreement shall be controlling in the case of all other Collateral.

 

Section 29.     Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Reference is made to (i) the Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2012 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Five Star Quality Care, Inc., a Maryland corporation, as the Borrower, the Lender Parties party thereto, Citibank, N.A., as collateral agent (together with any successor collateral agent appointed pursuant to Article VIII of the Credit Agreement, the “Collateral Agent”), and Citibank, N.

(c)   Operation of Mortgaged Property.  Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Mortgaged Property upon such terms and conditions as Mortgagee may deem reasonable under the circumstances (making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to time, as Mortgagee deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and other amounts collected by Mortgagee in connection therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7.

Section 5.4            Release of and Resort to Collateral.  Mortgagee may release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Mortgaged Property, any part of the Mortgaged Property without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the lien or security interest created in or evidenced by the Loan Documents or their status as a first and prior lien and security interest in and to the Mortgaged Property.  For payment of the Indebtedness, Mortgagee may resort to any other security in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect.

 

Section 5.5            Waiver of Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Mortgaged Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of any Event of Default or of Mortgagees election to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for under the Loan Documents, and (c) any right to a marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation.

 

Section 5.6            Discontinuance of Proceedings.  If Mortgagee or any other Secured Party shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Mortgagee or such other Secured Party, as the case may be, shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event, Mortgagor, Mortgagee and the other Secured Parties shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the Indebtedness, the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Mortgaged Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Mortgagee and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if the right, remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right of Mortgagee or any other Secured Party thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the Loan Documents for such Event of Default.

 

Section 5.7            Application of Proceeds.  The proceeds of any sale of, and the Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management, operation or other use of the Mortgaged Property, shall be applied by Mortgagee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order unless otherwise required by applicable law:

Section 5.8            Occupancy After Foreclosure.  Any sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof in accordance with Section 5.1(d) will divest all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to the property sold.  Subject to applicable law, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale will receive immediate possession of the property purchased.  If Mortgagor retains possession of such property or any part thereof subsequent to such sale, Mortgagor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and will, if Mortgagor remains in possession after demand to remove, be subject to eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with or without process of law.

 

Section 5.9            Additional Advances and Disbursements; Costs of Enforcement.

 

(a)   Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagee and each of the other Secured Parties shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor.  All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by Mortgagee or any other Secured Party under this Section 5.9, or otherwise under this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall bear interest from the date that such sum is advanced or expense incurred, to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the highest rate at which interest is then computed on any portion of the Indebtedness, and all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Mortgage.

 

(b)   Mortgagor shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of or incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Indebtedness or any claim under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and for the curing thereof, or for defending or asserting the rights and claims of Mortgagee in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise.

 

Section 5.10         No Mortgagee in Possession.  Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 5, the assignment of the Rents and Leases under Article 6, the security interests under Article 7, nor any other remedies afforded to Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall cause Mortgagee or any other Secured Party to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Mortgagee or any other Secured Party to lease the Mortgaged Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise.

 

ARTICLE 6
ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES

 

Section 6.1            Assignment.  In furtherance of and in addition to the assignment made by Mortgagor in Section 2.1 of this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, sells, transfers and conveys to Mortgagee all of its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, whether

 

8



 

now existing or hereafter entered into, and all of its right, title and interest in and to all Rents.  This assignment is an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only.  So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagor shall have a revocable license from Mortgagee to exercise all rights extended to the landlord under the Leases, including the right to receive and collect all Rents and to hold the Rents in trust for use in the payment and performance of the Obligations and to otherwise use the same.  The foregoing license is granted subject to the conditional limitation that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not legal proceedings have commenced, and without regard to waste, adequacy of security for the Obligations or solvency of Mortgagor, the license herein granted shall automatically expire and terminate, without notice to Mortgagor by Mortgagee (any such notice being hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor to the extent permitted by applicable law).

 

Section 6.2            Perfection Upon Recordation.  Mortgagor acknowledges that Mortgagee has taken all actions necessary to obtain, and that upon recordation of this Mortgage Mortgagee shall have, to the extent permitted under applicable law, a valid and fully perfected, first priority, present assignment of the Rents arising out of the Leases and all security for such Leases.  Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that upon recordation of this Mortgage Mortgagees interest in the Rents shall be deemed to be fully perfected, choate and enforced as to Mortgagor and  to the extent permitted under applicable law, all third parties, including, without limitation, any subsequently appointed trustee in any case under Title 11 of the United States Code (the Bankruptcy Code), without the necessity of commencing a foreclosure action with respect to this Mortgage, making formal demand for the Rents, obtaining the appointment of a receiver or taking any other affirmative action.

 

Section 6.3            Bankruptcy Provisions.  Without limitation of the absolute nature of the assignment of the Rents hereunder, Mortgagor and Mortgagee agree that (a) this Mortgage shall constitute a security agreement for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) the security interest created by this Mortgage extends to property of Mortgagor acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy and to all amounts paid as Rents and (c) such security interest shall extend to all Rents acquired by the estate after the commencement of any case in bankruptcy.

 

Section 6.4            No Merger of Estates.  So long as part of the Indebtedness and the Obligations secured hereby remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Mortgaged Property shall not merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates either in Mortgagor, Mortgagee, any tenant or any third party by purchase or otherwise.

 

ARTICLE 7
SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

Section 7.1            Security Interest.  This Mortgage constitutes a security agreement on personal property within the meaning of the UCC and other applicable law and with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards.  To this end, Mortgagor grants to Mortgagee a first and prior security interest in the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance, Condemnation Awards and all other Mortgaged Property which is personal property to secure the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations, and agrees that Mortgagee shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC with respect to such property.  Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Mortgagee with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards sent to Mortgagor at least ten (10) days prior to any action under the UCC shall constitute reasonable notice to Mortgagor.  In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Mortgage and the terms of the Security Agreement with respect to the collateral

(c)           Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property] in compliance with the provisions of Section 1.1.1(a) above.

 

(d)           All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Section 1.1.1(a) above, except for the Policy referenced in Section 1.1.1(a)(v), shall name [Mortgagor/Grantor] as the insured and Agent and its successors and/or assigns as the additional insured, as their interests may appear, and the Policies referenced in Section 1.1.1(a)(ii) above shall also name each other Secured Party and its successors and/or assigns as additional insureds, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard mortgagee endorsement and loss payable clause in favor of and acceptable to Agent.

(ii)           the Policy shall not be cancelled without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Agent, with ten (10) days’ written notice permissible for nonpayment of premium, and notwithstanding the fact that liability policies may only provide notice of cancellation to the named insured; and

 

(iii)          Neither Agent nor any Secured Party shall be a co-insurer and they shall not be liable for any contribution or Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

 

(f)            If at any time Agent is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, and such failure continues after written request therefor, Agent shall have the right, without notice to [Mortgagor/Grantor], to take such action as Agent deems necessary to protect its interest in the [Mortgaged Property/Trust Property], including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate and all expenses incurred by Agent in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by [Mortgagor/Grantor] to Agent upon demand and until paid shall be secured by this [Mortgage/Deed of Trust] and shall bear interest at the default interest rate specified in the Credit Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, [Mortgagor/Grantor] shall be permitted to maintain the Policies with insurance companies which do not meet the foregoing requirements (an “Otherwise Rated Insurer”), provided [Mortgagor/Grantor] obtains a “cut-through” endorsement (that is, an endorsement which permits recovery against the provider of such endorsement) with respect to any Otherwise Rated Insurer from an insurance company which meets the claims paying ability ratings required above. Also notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent has approved Landmark American Insurance Company, Torus Specialty Insurance Company and Aspen Specialty Insurance Company for this loan so long as they maintain an AM Best rating of at least A- XI by AM Best. Also Approved for this loan is Senior Living Insurance Company Limited, a [Mortgagor/Grantor]-funded captive insurance company that provides coverage to reimburse [Mortgagor/Grantor] for any general liability and professional liability deductibles/retentions.
