INCREMENTAL AMENDMENT NO. 2, dated as of September 9, 2014 (this “Amendment”), to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 29, 2011 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Team Health Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), Team Health, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (the “Borrower”), each lender from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as Syndication Agent (capitalized terms used but not defined herein having the meaning provided in the Credit Agreement).
W I T N E S S E T H
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to make, and have made, certain loans and other extensions of credit to the Borrower; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower has requested that revolving credit commitments be made available to the Borrower in an amount equal to $100,000,000 (the “Interim Revolving Credit Facility”), and the Lenders set forth on Schedule I hereto (collectively, the “Interim Revolving Credit Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent have agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Credit Agreement, that (a) the Interim Revolving Credit Lenders will provide the commitments set forth adjacent to their names on Schedule I hereto (collectively, the “Interim Revolving Credit Commitments”) and (b) as permitted by Section 2.14 thereof, the Credit Agreement shall be amended as set forth herein without additional consent or approval of the Lenders;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Interim Revolving Credit Facility. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Credit Agreement, each Interim Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to make loans denominated in U.S. dollars to the Borrower as elected by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Credit Agreement from time to time, on any Business Day until the Interim Facility Maturity Date (as defined below), in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Lender’s Interim Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the limits of each Lender’s Interim Revolving Credit Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof and of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 1(a), prepay under Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement, and reborrow under this Section 1(a). Revolving Credit Loans under this Section 1(a) may be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein or in the Credit Agreement.

(b) The “Interim Facility Maturity Date” shall be the earlier of (i) the date that is 364 days after the Interim Facility Closing Date (as defined below) and (ii) the date that the Revolving Credit Commitments and Tranche A Term Loans are refinanced or are otherwise amended or increased.


(c) Any borrowing under the Interim Revolving Credit Facility shall be deemed a “Revolving Credit Borrowing” for purposes of the Credit Agreement (other than Sections 2.03 and 2.04 thereof).

(d) The Interim Revolving Credit Facility shall be deemed a “Facility” (separate from the Revolving Credit Facility) for purposes of the Credit Agreement.




Exhibit 10.1

(e) The Interim Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed “Revolving Credit Lenders” for purposes of the definition of “Revolving Credit Borrowing” and Sections 2.02(b), 2.05(a) and 2.16(a) of the Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Interim Revolving Credit Lenders shall constitute “Lenders” for all purposes under the Credit Agreement.

(f) If for any reason the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans under the Interim Revolving Credit Facility at any time exceeds the aggregate Interim Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall promptly prepay or cause to be promptly prepaid Revolving Credit Loans under the Interim Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(g) For Purposes of Section 2.05(b)(iv) of the Credit Agreement, references to Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement (including Section 2.05(b)) shall be deemed to include Section 1(f) hereof.

(h) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Interim Revolving Credit Lenders on the Interim Facility Maturity Date for the Interim Revolving Credit Facility the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans under the Interim Revolving Credit Facility outstanding on such date.

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Interim Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate with respect to commitment fees times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Interim Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds the sum of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans under the Interim Revolving Credit Facility; provided that any commitment fee accrued with respect to any of the Interim Revolving Credit Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided further that no commitment fee shall accrue on any of the Interim Revolving Credit Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times from the date hereof until the Interim Facility Maturity Date, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV of the Credit Agreement is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the third Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Interim Facility Closing Date (as defined below), and on the Interim Facility Maturity Date. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. For purposes of this Section 1(i), the Applicable Rate with respect to unused Interim Revolving Credit Commitments shall be equivalent to the Applicable Rate with respect to unused Revolving Credit Commitments.

(j) Solely for purposes of (i) the definition of “Revolving Credit Exposure” set forth in the Credit Agreement, (ii) the proviso set forth in Section 2.01(b) of the Credit Agreement, (iii) Section 2.04(a) of the Credit Agreement, (iv) Section 2.07(c) of the Credit Agreement and (v) Section 2.16(b) of the Credit Agreement, in each case, “Revolving Credit Loans” shall be deemed to exclude any Incremental Revolving Credit Loans made under the Interim Revolving Credit Facility.

(k) For the avoidance of doubt, the Interim Revolving Credit Commitments shall constitute Incremental Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement.



Exhibit 10.1

(l) The consent of the Borrower shall be required for the assignment of Interim Revolving Credit Commitments to any Lender who is not an existing Revolving Credit Lender.

(m) The Interim Revolving Credit Facility shall be deemed a “Revolving Credit Facility” for purposes of Section 10.07(b)(ii)(A). Section 10.07(b)(ii)(C) shall not apply to an assignment of an Incremental Revolving Credit Loan or an Interim Revolving Credit Commitment.

(n) For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders shall not be permitted to assign Interim Revolving Credit Commitments to any Purchasing Borrower Party.

(o) For purposes of the definition of “Pro Rata Share”, with respect to the Interim Revolving Credit Facility, at any time any Interim Revolving Credit Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, “Pro Rata Share” shall mean the percentage of the total Interim Revolving Credit Commitments (disregarding any such Defaulting Lender’s Interim Revolving Credit Commitment) represented by such Lender’s Interim Revolving Credit Commitment.

(p) “Revolving Credit Commitments” shall be deemed to include Interim Revolving Credit Commitments for purposes of the definition of “Required Lenders”.
