Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from a Borrower.

The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrowers of any default in the payment thereof.

(d) Reallocations and Extensions. If the Maturity Date shall have occurred in respect of any Class of Revolving Commitments at a time when another Tranche or Tranches of any other Class of Revolving Commitments is or are in effect with a longer Maturity Date, then on the earliest occurring Maturity Date all then-outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swingline Loans as a result of the occurrence of such earliest Maturity Date); provided, however, that if on the occurrence of such earliest Maturity Date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 2.06(k)), there shall exist sufficient unutilized Revolving Commitments of any other Class or Classes or Extended Revolving Commitments so that the respective outstanding Swingline Loans could be incurred pursuant to such Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes or Extended Revolving Commitments which will remain in effect after the occurrence of such earliest Maturity Date, then there shall be an automatic adjustment on such date of the risk participations of each Revolving Lender holding Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes or that is an Extending Revolving Lender and such outstanding Swingline Loans shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the relevant Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes or Extended Revolving Commitments and such Swingline Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full on such earliest Maturity Date.

Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Bank, the respective Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank for any such renewal.

In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Applicable Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of paragraph (k) below) of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the respective Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Issuing Bank in Dollars the Dollar Amount equal to such LC Disbursement, calculated as of the date the Issuing Bank made such LC Disbursement (or if the Issuing Bank shall so elect in its sole discretion by notice to the respective Borrower, in such other Agreed Currency which was paid by the Issuing Bank pursuant to such LC Disbursement in an amount equal to such LC Disbursement) not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if a Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by a Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that a Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than the Dollar Amount of $1,000,000, the Borrowers may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Applicable Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Applicable Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of paragraph (k) below) of the payment then due from the Borrowers, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Applicable Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Applicable Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Applicable Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by an Applicable Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligations to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If the Borrowers’ reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any

 

74


Foreign Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Multicurrency Tranche Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in Dollars, the Borrowers shall, at their option, either (x) pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the relevant Multicurrency Tranche Lender or (y) reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Foreign Currency in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Equivalent Amount, calculated using the applicable exchange rates, on the date such LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligations to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.06, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the respective Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the respective Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the respective Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligations to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Applicable Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

 

75


(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans (or in the case such LC Disbursement is denominated in a Foreign Currency, at the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate for such Agreed Currency plus the then effective Applicable Rate with respect to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans); provided that, if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Applicable Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06 to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Applicable Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that a Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 105% of the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (i) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Foreign Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in a Foreign Currency that the Borrowers are not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Foreign Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the either Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VII. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Foreign Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date notice demanding cash collateralization is delivered to the Borrowers. The Borrowers also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b). Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and the Borrowers hereby grant the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in the LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on

 

76


such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders), be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures would not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(k) Reallocations and Extensions. If the Maturity Date in respect of any Class of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if Extended Revolving Commitments or one or more other Tranches of Revolving Commitments of any other Class or Classes in respect of which the Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.06(e)) under (and ratably participated in by Revolving Lenders pursuant to) Extended Revolving Commitments or the Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes in respect of such non-terminating Extended Revolving Commitments or Tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Extended Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the respective Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.06(j). Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the occurrence of a Maturity Date with respect to a given Class of Revolving Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such Maturity Date.

(l) Issuing Bank Agreements. Each Issuing Bank (other than the Administrative Agent or its affiliates) agrees that, unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the daily activity (set forth by day) in respect of Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding week, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the currency and aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed), it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that it is then permitted under this Agreement, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrowers fail to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount and currency of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

 

77


SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds (i) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders and (ii) in the case of each Loan denominated in a Foreign Currency, by 12:00 noon, Local Time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency/CAD Payment Office for such currency and at such Eurocurrency/CAD Payment Office for such currency; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the respective Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to (x) an account of the applicable Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City or Chicago and designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars and (y) an account of the applicable Borrower in the relevant jurisdiction and designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.07 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency) or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Class of ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (as applicable). If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type, and under the applicable Tranche, specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, subject to clause (f) below, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.08. The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section 2.08 shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.08, the applicable Borrower shall not be permitted to change the Tranche or Class of any Borrowing.

 

78


(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.08, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election (by telephone or irrevocable written notice in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars or by irrevocable written notice (via an Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by such Borrower) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type and Class resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section 2.08 shall not be construed to permit the Borrowers to (i) change the currency of any Borrowing, (ii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans or Bankers’ Acceptance Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d) or (iii) convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a Type not available under the Class of Commitments or the Tranche pursuant to which such Borrowing was made.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing, a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans and if such Borrowing is a Revolving Borrowing, whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Dollar Tranche Borrowing or a Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency (which shall comply with the limitation set forth in Section 2.01(c)(v)) to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which Interest Period shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period (i) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing, (ii) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars, such Borrowing shall be converted into a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans and (iii) in the case of a

 

79


Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than Canadian Dollars) in respect of which such Borrower shall have failed to deliver an Interest Election Request prior to the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the end of such Interest Period, such Borrowing shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Borrowing in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month unless such Eurocurrency Borrowing is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.11. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the applicable Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans and (ii) unless repaid, (A) each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing (and any such Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency shall be redenominated in Dollars, based on the Dollar Amounts thereof, at the time of such conversion) at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) each Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans shall be converted at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto to an ABR Borrowing (and same shall be redenominated in Dollars, based on the Dollar Amount thereof, at the time of such conversion).

(f) Mandatory and voluntary conversions of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans into Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be made in the circumstances, and to the extent, provided in Schedule 2.13(f). Bankers’ Acceptance Loans shall not be permitted to be converted into any other Type of Loan prior to the maturity date thereof.

SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall automatically and permanently terminate on the relevant Maturity Date and (ii) the Term Loan Commitment of each Term Lender shall automatically and permanently terminate on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the incurrence of Term Loans on such date).

(b) The Borrowers may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of such Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce any Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans of such Class in accordance with Section 2.11, the Dollar Amount of the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures in respect of such Class would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of such Class.

(c) The Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments of any Class under paragraph (b) of this Section 2.09 at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments of any Class delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or one or more other events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by each applicable Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

SECTION 2.10. Repayment and Amortization of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date in the

 

80


currency of such Loan, (ii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Latest Maturity Date with respect to any Revolving Commitments and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two (2) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Dollar Tranche Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrowers shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

(b) Beginning June 30, 2014, the Lux Borrower shall repay principal of outstanding 2014 Term A Loans on each Scheduled Principal Repayment Date described below in the aggregate principal amount described opposite such Scheduled Principal Repayment Date (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and 2.11(d)(i)):

(g) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender promissory notes payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The respective Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as set forth in Section 2.12(d)) but subject to break funding payments required by Section 2.16, subject to prior notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.11(a); provided that, prepayments of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans may not be made prior to the maturity date thereof; provided, further, that the respective Borrowers may (in connection with a prepayment of the respective Borrowing) cash collateralize such Bankers’ Acceptance Loans by depositing with the Administrative Agent cash in an amount equal to the full amount payable on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto and in so doing the Borrowers shall be deemed to have satisfied their obligations in respect thereof. The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing or any Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing or any Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment.

82


principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02.

(b) If at any time, (i) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all of the Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures (calculated, with respect to those Credit Events denominated in Foreign Currencies, as of the most recent Computation Date with respect to each such Credit Event) exceeds 105% of the aggregate Multicurrency Tranche Commitments, (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all Non-USD Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure (calculated as of the most recent Computation Date) exceeds 105% of the aggregate Non-USD Multicurrency Tranche Sublimit or (iii) for any other reason, the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all of the Revolving Credit Exposures of any Class (so calculated) exceeds the aggregate Commitments of such Class, the Borrowers shall in each case immediately repay the applicable Borrowings or Cash Collateralize LC Exposure in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(j), as applicable, in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to cause the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving Credit Exposures (so calculated) of each Class to be less than or equal to the aggregate Commitments of such Class (or, in the case of preceding clause (ii), cause the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all Non-USD Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure to be less than or equal to the Non-USD Multicurrency Tranche Sublimit).

(c) In the event and on each occasion that (1) any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Irish Holdco, any Borrower or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event (other than with respect to AMS Asset Sales to the extent set forth in Section 2.11(e) below), the Borrowers shall, within five (5) Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay the Obligations as set forth in Section 2.11(d)(i) below in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds; provided that no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this clause (c) in connection with the receipt by or on behalf of the Parent, the Borrowers or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries of Net Proceeds of less than $2,000,000 in respect of any casualty or other insured damage to, or any taking under power of eminent domain or by condemnation or similar proceeding of, any property or asset of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, further, that in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, if the Irish Holdco shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect that the Irish Holdco or its relevant Restricted Subsidiaries intend to apply the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate), within 360 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to consummate a Permitted Acquisition or to otherwise acquire (or replace or rebuild) real property, equipment or other tangible assets (excluding inventory) to be used in the business of the Irish Holdco and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries, and certifying that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds specified in such certificate; provided, further, that to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 360 day period (or committed to be applied by the end of the 360 day period and applied within 90 days after the end of such 360 day period), at which time a prepayment shall

 

83


be required in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so applied and (2) the Irish Holdco or any Borrower incurs, issues or obtains any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (other than solely by means of extending or renewing then existing Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness without resulting in any Net Proceeds), the Borrowers shall, on the date on which such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is incurred, issued or obtained, prepay the applicable Refinanced Debt as set forth in Section 2.11(d)(ii) below in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, for so long as any Existing Senior Notes remain outstanding and the covenant contained in Section 4.10 of any of the Existing Senior Notes Indentures remains in effect, (A) in the case of any Asset Sale (as defined in the Existing Senior Notes Indentures) by Endo or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, any reinvestment otherwise permitted as provided in the immediately preceding sentence shall be required to be made by Endo or one or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and the last proviso to clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed inapplicable, and (B) if at any time on or prior to September 30, 2016, an amount equal to or greater than the initial aggregate principal amount of the Endo Secured Intercompany Proceeds Loans (but not less than $1,400,000,000) of Net Proceeds from Asset Sales by Endo and its Subsidiaries has been used to repay outstanding principal of Term Loans, up to $500,000,000 of such additional Net Proceeds from such Asset Sales by Endo and its Subsidiaries may, at the option of the Borrowers, be reinvested pursuant to the reinvestment rights described in the second and third provisos to clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence (for this purpose, with such reinvestment rights not to expire before September 30, 2016) and/or may be used, at the option of the Borrowers, by Endo to offer to repurchase then outstanding Existing Senior Notes in accordance with the requirements of Section 4.10 of the Existing Senior Notes Indentures, or to otherwise repay, redeem or repurchase any Existing Senior Notes in accordance with the terms of such Existing Senior Notes Indentures, with any amounts not so reinvested or used to repurchase, redeem or repay Existing Senior Notes as contemplated above, to be applied as otherwise contemplated by clause (1) of this clause (c) on the later of (x) the last day of the reinvestment period which would otherwise apply pursuant to clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence or (y) September 30, 2016.

(d) Subject to SectionSections 2.11(e) and 2.11(f) below, (i) all such amounts pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(1) shall be applied (x) first, to prepay the scheduled principal payments in respect of each of theon a pro rata basis the outstanding Term A Loans and the Term B Loans due on the next eight Scheduled Principal Repayment Dates on a pro rata basis (based on the amounts owing on each Tranche on the respective Scheduled Principal Repayment Date) in the direct order of maturity and (y) second, to prepay remaining outstanding Term A Loans and Term B Loans on a pro rata basis (with each Tranche to receive its pro rata share of the payments pursuant to this sub-clause (y) based on the relative outstanding principal amounts thereof), with all such prepayments pursuant to this sub-clause (y) to reduce the remaining scheduled principal payments of the respective Tranche on a pro rata basis (based upon the relative remaining amounts thereof) and (ii) all such amounts pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(2) shall be applied to prepay an aggregate principal amount of the applicable Refinanced Debt equal to the Net Proceeds of the applicable Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (and to the extent the applicable Refinanced Debt is not repaid in full, such Net Proceeds shall reduce the remaining scheduled principal repayments of such Refinanced Debt on a pro rata basis).

(e) On and from the date on which the Par Acquisition Incremental Commitments and Loans become effective and the Term B Loans in effect on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date are paid in full, in the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Irish Holdco, any Borrower or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of the AMS Asset Sales, the Borrowers shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay any outstanding Par Asset Sale Bridge Loans and no prepayments shall be required or may be made with respect to any other Term Loans with such Net Proceeds until the Par Asset Sale Bridge Loans are repaid in full, at which time Sections 2.11(c) and 2.11(d) shall continue to apply.

 

84


(ef) The Lux Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(1) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Term Lender of the contents of any such prepayment notice and of such Term Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each relevant Tranche of the Term Loans). Any Term B Lender (a “Declining Term B Lender,” and any Term B Lender which is not a Declining Term B Lender, an “Accepting Term B Lender”) may elect, by delivering written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lux Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day after the date of such Term B Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment, that the full amount of any mandatory prepayment otherwise required to be made with respect to the Term B Loans held by such Term B Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(1) not be made (the aggregate amount of such prepayments declined by the Declining Term B Lenders, the “Declined Prepayment Amount”). If a Term B Lender fails to deliver notice setting forth such rejection of a prepayment to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term B Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term B Loans. In the event that the Declined Prepayment Amount is greater than $0, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Term A Lender (unless no Term A Loans remain outstanding) and Accepting Term B Lender of the amount of such Declined Prepayment Amount and of any such Term A Lender’s and Accepting Term B Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the Term A Loans and Term B Loans (excluding the Applicable Percentage of Declining Term B Lenders), as applicable). Any such Accepting Term B Lender may elect, by delivering, no later than 5:00p.m. one (1) Business Day after the date of such Accepting Term B Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such additional prepayment, a written notice, that such Accepting Term B Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount not be applied to repay such Accepting Term B Lender’s Term Loans, in which case the portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount which would otherwise have been applied to such Term Loans of the Declining Term B Lenders shall instead be retained by the Lux Borrower. Each Term A Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount (if any) and each Term B Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount (unless declined by the respective Term B Lender as described in the preceding sentence) shall be applied to the respective Term Loans of such Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrowers may, at their option, apply any amounts retained in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence to prepay loans in accordance with Section 2.11(a) above.

SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which the last of the Revolving Commitments (or Extended Revolving Commitments) of such Revolving Lender terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the last of the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that any commitment fees accruing after the date on which such Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

 

85


(b) The Borrowers agree to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which the last of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure and (ii) to the Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate per annum separately agreed upon by the Borrowers and the Issuing Bank on the average daily Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the last of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees and commissions with respect to the issuance, amendment, cancellation, negotiation, transfer, presentment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Unless otherwise specified above, participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third (3rd) Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the last of the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the such Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

(d) If any Repricing Event occurs prior to the date occurring six months after the Closing Date, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each Lender with Term B Loans that are subject to such Repricing Event (including any Lender which is replaced pursuant to Section 9.02(e) as a result of its refusal to consent to an amendment giving rise to such Repricing Event), a fee in an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Loans subject to such Repricing Event. Such fees shall be earned, due and payable upon the date of the occurrence of the respective Repricing Event.

(e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the applicable Revolving Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.13. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. The Revolving Loans comprising each Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall bear interest at the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

 

86


(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrowers hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.13 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans (or the Canadian Prime Rate, in the case of Canadian Dollar denominated Loans) as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the applicable Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.13 shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan of any Class (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, as well as all Canadian Dollar denominated Loans, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and (ii) for Borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Canadian Prime Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate, LIBO Rate or B/A Discount Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) The parties hereto agree that the provisions of Schedule 2.13(f) shall apply to all Bankers’ Acceptances, Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, Drafts and B/A Equivalent Notes created hereunder, and that the provisions of Schedule 2.13(f) shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this Agreement as if such provisions were set forth in their entirety herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Borrowers shall not be permitted to request a Bankers’ Acceptance Loan at any time a Default has occurred and is continuing (and upon such event, any outstanding Bankers’ Acceptance Loans shall be converted into Canadian Prime Rate Loans on the maturity thereof).

SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by a Majority in Interest of the Lenders of any Class that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period:

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower and the applicable Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies such Borrower and the applicable Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice

 

87


no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and any such Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be repaid on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing (and if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency, such Borrowing Request shall be ineffective) provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank;

(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

(iii) subject the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Other Taxes and (C) Excluded Taxes (including any change in the rate of Excluded Taxes)) with respect to this Agreement, or any Loan made by it or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent or such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency) or to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency), then the applicable Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

 

88


(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis and calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the applicable Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan or Bankers’ Acceptance Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(a) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan or Bankers’ Acceptance Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued or has been payable on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate or B/A Discount Rate (as applicable) that would have been applicable to such Loan (but not the Applicable Rate applicable thereto), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurocurrency market or other applicable market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16, and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used by such Lender to determine such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 for any amounts under this Section 2.16 incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such amount and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor.

SECTION 2.17. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers or Guarantors, as the case may be, hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes; provided that if any Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be required to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the sum

 

89


payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, each Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall pay any Other Taxes imposed on or incurred by the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Each Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and calculation of such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time(s) and in the manner(s) prescribed by applicable law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of the Lux Borrower and at the request of the Lux Borrower, compliance with those procedures described by Luxembourg law implementing the EU Savings Directive (2003/48/EC) of 3rd June 2003) or reasonably requested by such Borrower, at such Borrower’s expense, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Upon the reasonable request of any Domestic Subsidiary, any Lender that would be entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the United States with respect to payments made by such Domestic Subsidiary under any lending arrangement related to this Agreement, shall deliver to such Domestic Subsidiary, at the expense of such Domestic Subsidiary, such properly completed and executed documentation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN and W-9 or any successor forms) as would permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, the completion, execution and submission of any such documentation shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

 

90


(f) Each Lender and Administrative Agent that is a United States Person, as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (other than Persons that are corporations or otherwise exempt from United States backup withholding Tax), shall deliver at the time(s) and in the manner(s) prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Co-Borrower, to the Co-Borrower and the Administrative Agent (as applicable), a properly completed and duly executed United States Internal Revenue Form W-9 or any successor form, certifying that such Person is exempt from United States backup withholding Tax on payments made hereunder.

(g) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, or with respect to which any Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to the applicable Borrower or Guarantor (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower or Guarantor under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the applicable Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower or Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 2.17 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person.

(h) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, only to the extent that any Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of each Borrower and Guarantor to do so) and each Borrower and Guarantor, as the case may be, for any Excluded Taxes, in each case attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or any Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.17(h) shall be paid within ten (10) days after the Administrative Agent or a Borrower or Guarantor (as applicable) delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or such Borrower or Guarantor (as applicable). Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(i) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(i), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

(j) EACH FOREIGN LENDER LISTED ON SCHEDULE 2.01 REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT, AS OF THE CLOSING DATE, ASSUMING COMPLIANCE WITH PROCEDURAL FORMALITIES, AMOUNTS PAYABLE TO SUCH FOREIGN LENDER BY A DOMESTIC SUBSIDIARY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT WOULD BE EXEMPT FROM U.S. FEDERAL WITHHOLDING TAX. EACH FOREIGN LENDER WHICH BECOMES A LENDER AFTER THE CLOSING DATE HEREBY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT, ON THE DATE SUCH FOREIGN LENDER FIRST BECAME A LENDER HEREUNDER, ASSUMING COMPLIANCE WITH PROCEDURAL FORMALITIES, AMOUNTS PAYABLE TO SUCH FOREIGN LENDER BY A DOMESTIC SUBSIDIARY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT WOULD BE EXEMPT FROM U. S. FEDERAL WITHHOLDING TAX OR WOULD BE SO EXEMPT BUT FOR ONE OR MORE CHANGES IN LAW WHICH HAVE OCCURRED AFTER THE CLOSING DATE.

SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Allocations of Proceeds; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to (i) in the case of payments denominated in Dollars, 12:00 noon, New York City time and (ii) in the case of payments denominated in a Foreign Currency, 12:00 noon, Local Time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency/CAD Payment Office for such currency, in each case on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made (i) in the same currency in which the applicable Credit Event was made (or where such currency has been converted to euro, in euro) and (ii) to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 60 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005, Attention of: Michael Winters (Telecopy No. (212) 797-5690) or such other office as the Administrative Agent may hereafter designate in writing as such to the other parties hereto, or, in the case of a Credit Event denominated in a Foreign Currency, the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency/CAD Payment Office for such currency, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments denominated in the same currency received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.18, if, after the making of any Credit Event in any Foreign Currency, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which the Credit Event was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the respective Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by the respective Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the respective Borrower takes all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.

(b) Any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (whether as a result of any realization on the Collateral, any setoff rights, any distribution in connection with any

 

92


proceedings or other action of any Loan Party in respect of Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise and whether received in cash or otherwise) (i) not constituting (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the relevant Lenders under the Class of Loans being prepaid as specified by the Borrowers) or (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, such funds shall be applied, subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and any Issuing Bank from the Borrowers, second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders (in their capacities as such) from the Borrowers, third, to pay interest (including post-petition interest, whether or not an allowed claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) then due and payable on the Loans ratably, fourth, to repay principal on the Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, and any other amounts owing with respect to Banking Services Obligations and Swap Obligations ratably; provided that amounts which would otherwise be applied to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit shall, unless all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans have been paid in full, instead be utilized to repay such outstandings, and fifth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to any Secured Party by the Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the respective Borrower, or unless a Default is in existence, none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Eurocurrency Loan, or Bankers’ Acceptance Loan of a Class, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period or maturity date (as applicable) applicable to any such Eurocurrency Loan or Bankers’ Acceptance Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (as applicable) of the same Class and, in any event, the Borrowers shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.16. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such received proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations.

(c) At the election of the Administrative Agent, all payments of principal, interest, LC Disbursements, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and expenses pursuant to Section 9.03), and other sums due and payable under the Loan Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder pursuant to Section 2.02.

(d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans to

 

93


any assignee or participant, other than, except as provided in Section 2.24, to the Irish Holdco or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply) and (iii) nothing in this Section 2.18(d) shall be construed to limit the applicability of Section 2.18(b) in the circumstances where Section 2.18(b) is applicable in accordance with its terms. The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the applicable Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency).

(f) Subject to Section 2.22, if any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(e) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section 2.18 until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section 2.18; in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or if any Lender delivers a notice pursuant to Section 2.26, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or (ii) the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or if any Lender delivers a notice pursuant to Section 2.26, or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the respective Borrowers may, at their 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 Section 9.04),

 

94


all its interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the respective Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including any amounts under Section 2.16), from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or each applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.20. Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) The Lux Borrower and, the Co-Borrower and, to the extent applicable, the Canadian Borrower and/or the Irish Borrower, may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) from time to time after the Closing Date, request Incremental Term A Loan Commitments, Incremental Term B Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments, as applicable, in each case denominated in Dollars and in an aggregate amount not to exceed (when aggregated with any Incremental Equivalent Debt) the Incremental Amount (or, in the case of Par Acquisition Incremental Commitments and Loans, the Par Incremental Amount) from one or more Incremental Term A Lenders, Incremental Term B Lenders and/or Incremental Revolving Lenders (which, in each case, may include any existing Lender, but shall be required to be Persons which would qualify as assignees of a Lender in accordance with Section 9.04) willing to provide such Incremental Term A Loans, Incremental Term B Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in their own discretion. Each notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term A Loan Commitments, Incremental Term B Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $10,000,000 and a minimum amount of $25,000,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Amount), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term A Loan Commitments, Incremental Term B Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments are requested to become effective, (iii) in the case of Incremental Revolving Commitments, whether such Incremental Revolving Commitments are to constitute an increase to the Dollar Tranche Commitments or Multicurrency Tranche Commitments; provided that, where multiple Classes of Revolving Commitments exist with different Maturity Dates, any Incremental Revolving Commitments shall constitute and increase to the Class of Revolving Commitments with the Latest Maturity Date, (iv) in the case of Incremental Term A Loan Commitments, whether such Incremental Term A Loan Commitments are commitments to make term loans with the same interest rates, amortization, maturity and other terms as the Class of Term A Loans with the Latest Maturity Date or commitments to make term loans with interest rates and/or amortization and/or maturity and/or other terms different from the Term A Loans (“Other Term A Loans”) and (v) in the case of Incremental Term B Loan Commitments, whether such Incremental Term B Loan Commitments are commitments to make term loans with the same interest rates, amortization, maturity and other terms as the Class of Term B Loans with the Latest Maturity Date or commitments to make term loans with interest rates and/or amortization and/or maturity and/or other terms different from the Term B Loans (“Other Term B Loans”).

(b) The Lux Borrower and, the Co-Borrower, the Canadian Borrower (to the extent applicable), the Irish Borrower (to the extent applicable) and each Incremental Term A Lender shall

 

95


execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Amendment and such customary other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term A Loan Commitment of such Incremental Term A Lender. Each Incremental Amendment providing for Incremental Term A Loans shall specify the terms of the applicable Incremental Term A Loans; provided that (i) except as to pricing, amortization, mandatory prepayments and final maturity date (which shall, subject to clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (viv) of this proviso, be determined by the Lux Borrower and, the Co-Borrower and, the Canadian Borrower (to the extent applicable) and the Irish Borrower (to the extent applicable) and the Incremental Term A Lenders in their sole discretion), the Other Term A Loans shall have (x) the same terms as the Dollar denominated Class of Term A Loans with the Latest Maturity Date or (y) such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) the final maturity date of any Other Term A Loans shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date of any Class of Term A Loans, (iii) each Class of Other Term A Loans shall be denominated in Dollars and must have scheduled amortization of at least 5% per annum (although same may have amortization of at least 3.75% per annum for the first year after the issuance thereof), (iv) thethe Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Other Term A Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class of Term A Loans with the Latest Maturity Date, (viv) the prepayment provisions of any Other Term A Loans shall not be more favorable than the prepayment provisions applicable to the Term A Loans and (viv) the Effective Yield of any Other Term A Loans may exceed the Effective Yield then applicable to the 2014 Term A Loans; provided that (x) the Effective Yield for the 2014 Term A Loans is increased (to the extent necessary) such that the Effective Yield thereof is not less than the Effective Yield of such Other Term A Loans minus 0.50% and (y) the Effective Yield for each other Class of Loans (unless specified otherwise in any Incremental Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Extension Offer pursuant to which any such Class was created) is increased by a percentage per annum equal to that by which the Effective Yield of the 2014 Term A Loans is (or would have been if then outstanding, if all 2014 Term A Loans have been repaid in full at the time of such determination) increased pursuant to preceding clause (x). The Incremental Term A Loans shall rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and of security with the Term A Loans and shall not be (x) secured by any property or assets of the Parent, the Irish Holdco or any Subsidiary other than the Collateral or (y) guaranteed by the Parent, the Irish Holdco or any of its Subsidiaries other than the Loan Parties; provided that, if such Incremental Term A Loans rank junior in right of security with the Term A Loans, such Incremental Term A Loans will be established as a separate Tranche from the Term A Loans. In the case of any second lien Incremental Term A Loans, such Indebtedness shall be subject to the terms of a Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) The Lux Borrower and, the Co-Borrower and, to the extent applicable, the Canadian Borrower and/or the Irish Borrower and each Incremental Term B Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Amendment and such customary other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term B Loan Commitment of such Incremental Term B Lender.

In the case of any second lien Incremental Term B Loans, such Indebtedness shall be subject to the terms of a Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

(d) The Borrowers and each Incremental Revolving Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Amendment and such other customary documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Revolving Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Lender. Any Incremental Revolving Commitment established hereunder shall have terms identical to (and shall form part of) such Class of Revolving Commitments with the Latest Maturity Date existing on the Closing Date, it being understood that the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may make (without the consent of or notice to any other party) any amendment to reflect such increase in the Revolving Commitments.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.20 unless (i) at the time that any such Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Commitment is made (and after giving effect thereto), (A) no Default or Event of Default shall exist; provided that, in the event that any tranche of Incremental Term Loans is used to finance a Permitted Acquisition and to the extent the Incremental Term Lenders participating in such tranche of Incremental Term Loans agree, the foregoing clause (A) shall be tested at the time of the execution of the acquisition agreement related to such Permitted Acquisition (provided that such Incremental Term Lenders shall not be permitted to waive any Default or Event of Default then existing or existing after giving effect to such tranche of Incremental Term Loans), and (B) the representations and warranties of the Borrowers set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than to the extent qualified by materiality or “Material Adverse Effect”, in which case, such representations and warranties shall be true and correct); provided that, in the event that the tranche of Incremental Term Loans is used to finance a Permitted Acquisition and to the extent the Incremental Term Lenders participating in such tranche of Incremental Term Loans agree, the foregoing clause (B) shall be limited to customary “specified representations” and those representations included in the acquisition agreement related to such Permitted Acquisition that are material to the

 

97


interests of the Lenders and only to the extent that the Irish Holdco or its applicable Subsidiary has the right to terminate its obligations under such acquisition agreement as a result of a breach of such representations; (ii) on a pro forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) of Section 5.01 (or, if prior thereto, pursuant to Section 3.04) as if (x) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, such Incremental Term Loans had been outstanding on the last day of such fiscal quarter of the Irish Holdco for testing compliance therewith or (y) in the case any Incremental Revolving Commitments, all Revolving Loans available to the Borrowers, including any such Incremental Revolving Commitment, had been outstanding on the last day of such fiscal quarter of the Irish Holdco for testing compliance therewith, the Irish Holdco shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 6.12 (at any time prior to the first test date pursuant to said Section 6.12, as if the initially applicable covenant levels were then in effect); and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents and legal opinions consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date as to such matters as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent; provided that the effectiveness of the Par Acquisition Incremental Commitments and Loans shall not be subject to compliance with the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) but shall be subject to such other conditions as the Incremental Term Lenders and Incremental Revolving Lenders providing such commitments and loans shall agree. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments evidenced thereby. Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Borrowers’ consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(f) In addition to the foregoing, the Lux Borrower may designate the Irish Borrower to be a Borrower under the revolving facilities provided for hereunder, subject to the condition precedent that the Lux Borrower (or the Irish Borrower, as applicable) shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender the following documents (and if such Irish Borrower is not already a Loan Party, any additional documentation required by Section 5.09):

(i) copies, certified by the secretary or assistant secretary of the Irish Borrower, of resolutions of the board of directors or similar governing body of the Irish Borrower approving this Agreement and any other Loan Documents to which the Irish Borrower is becoming a party and performing the obligations thereunder and such other documents and certificates as the Administrative Agent or its counsel may reasonably request relating to the organization and existence of the Irish Borrower;

(ii) an incumbency certificate, executed by the secretary or assistant secretary of the Irish Borrower, which shall identify by name and title and bear the signature of the officers of the Irish Borrower authorized to request Borrowings hereunder and sign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Irish Borrower is becoming a party, upon which certificate the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely until informed of any change in writing by the Lux Borrower or the Irish Borrower, as applicable;

(iii) opinions of Irish counsel to the Irish Borrower, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel, with respect to the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and such other customary matters as are reasonably requested by counsel to the Administrative Agent and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; and

(iv) at least three (3) Business Days prior to such designation, any other instruments and documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and each Lender under applicable “know your customer” or similar rules and regulations, including the USA Patriot Act.

(fg) The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any Agents or Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20., including those required by the Incremental Term Loan Lenders or Incremental Revolving Lenders, as applicable (and not adverse to any existing Lender after giving effect to the Incremental Loans made pursuant to such amendment). The Borrowers will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans for their general corporate purposes (including loans and other Investments in the Irish Holdco and its Subsidiaries as permitted herein). Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Commitments may be made by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have any obligation to make or provide any portion of any Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Commitments) or by any other bank or other financial institution; provided that any bank or financial institution (including any new or existing Lenders) providing Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Borrowers. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments, unless it so agrees.

(gh) This Section 2.20 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.02 to the contrary.

SECTION 2.21. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from a Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the applicable Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.18, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to such Borrower.

SECTION 2.22. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

(b) the unused Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby under Section 9.02;

(c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing: all or any part of the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Dollar Tranche Lenders in accordance with their respective Dollar Tranche Percentages (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of Sections 2.05(d) and 2.06(k)) but only to the extent (A) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Dollar Tranche Lenders’ Dollar Tranche Commitments and (B) each non-Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure in respect of any Class does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche Commitment in respect of such Class; and all or any part of the Dollar Tranche LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Dollar Tranche Lenders in accordance with their respective Dollar Tranche Percentages (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of Sections 2.05(d) and 2.06(k)) but only to the extent (C) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Dollar Tranche Lenders’ Dollar Tranche Commitments and (D) each non-Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure in respect of any Class does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche Commitment in respect of such Class; and all or any part of the Multicurrency Tranche LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Multicurrency Tranche Lenders in accordance with their respective Multicurrency Tranche Percentages but only to the extent (E) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Tranche LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Multicurrency Tranche Lenders’ Multicurrency Tranche Commitments and (F) each non-Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure in respect of any Class does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Tranche Commitment in respect of such Class;

(ii) if the reallocations described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the respective Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank only the respective Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period (and to the extent) such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

 

100


(iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (ii) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of Sections 2.05(d) and 2.06(k)); and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.22(c), and participating interests in any such newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.22(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Holding Company of any Lender shall occur following the Closing Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender, reasonably satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Dollar Tranche Revolving Loans of any Class (other than Swingline Loans) and/or Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Loans of any Class of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.23. Extensions of Loans and Commitments. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the applicable Borrower(s) to all Term A Lenders of Term A Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Term B Lenders of Term B Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Incremental Term Lenders of Incremental Term Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Lenders of Other Term Loans with a

(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or at the time of the Extension;

(ii) except as to interest rates, fees and final maturity (which shall, subject to the requirements of this Section 2.23, be determined by Borrowers and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Commitment, the Incremental Revolving Commitment or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender (an “Extending Revolving Lender”) extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Commitment, Incremental Revolving Commitment or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the original Revolving Commitments of the same Class, the Incremental Revolving Commitments or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (x) subject to the provisions of Sections 2.05(d) and 2.06(k) to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans which mature or expire after a Maturity Date when there exist Extended Revolving Commitments with a longer Maturity Date, all Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Commitments and Incremental Revolving Commitments in accordance with their pro rata share of the aggregate Revolving Commitments and Incremental Revolving Commitments (and except as provided in Sections 2.05(d) and 2.06(k), without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier Maturity Date with respect to Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued) and all borrowings under Revolving Commitments of such Class and any related Incremental Revolving Commitments or Extended Revolving Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and (B) repayments required upon the Maturity Date for the non-extending Revolving Commitments of the same Class, or any related Incremental Revolving Commitments or Extended Revolving Commitments) and (y) at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments, Extended Revolving Commitments, Incremental Revolving Commitments and/or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments and any original Revolving Commitments) which have more than three different Maturity Dates;

 

102


(iii) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to the succeeding clauses (v), (vi) and (vii), be determined by the Lux Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term A Loans of any Term A Lender (an “Extending Term A Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term A Loans”) shall have the same terms as the Tranche of Term A Loans subject to such Extension Offer;

(iv) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to the succeeding clauses (v), (vi) and (vii), be determined by the Lux Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term B Loans of any Term B Lender (an “Extending Term B Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term B Loans”) shall have the same terms as the Tranche of Term B Loans subject to such Extension Offer;

(v) the final maturity date for any Extended Term A Loans and Extended Term B Loans shall be no earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date for Term A Loans and Term B Loans, respectively, hereunder and the amortization schedules applicable to Extended Term A Loans and Extended Term B Loans pursuant to Sections 2.10(b) and (c) for periods prior to the applicable Maturity Date may not be increased;

(vi) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term A Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term A Loans extended thereby, and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term B Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term B Loans extended thereby;

(vii) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer;

(viii) if the aggregate principal amount of applicable Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof), Revolving Commitments, Incremental Revolving Commitments or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which applicable Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of applicable Term Loans, Revolving Commitments, Incremental Revolving Commitments or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrowers pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the applicable Term Loans, Revolving Loans, Incremental Revolving Loans or Other Refinancing Loans, as the case may be, of the applicable Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension Offer;

(ix) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing,

 

103


(x) the Extension shall not become effective unless, on the proposed effective date of the Extension, (x) the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent one or more legal opinions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and a certificate of an authorized officer of each Loan Party dated the applicable date of the Extension and executed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such Extension and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such Section 4.02 to any Credit Event being deemed to be references to the Extension on the applicable date of the Extension) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated the applicable date of the Extension and executed by a Financial Officer of the Irish Holdco;

(xi) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrowers; and

(xii) the Minimum Tranche Amount shall be satisfied unless waived by the Administrative Agent.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.23, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Sections 2.11 and (ii) no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment; provided that (A) the Borrowers may at their election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in Borrowers’ sole discretion and may be waived by Borrowers) of Term A Loans, Term B Loans, Other Refinancing Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, Incremental Revolving Commitments or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments (as applicable) of any or all applicable Tranches and Classes be tendered and (B) no Tranche of Extended Loans shall be in an amount (taking the Dollar Amount of any amounts denominated in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars) of less than $100,000,000 (the “Minimum Tranche Amount”), unless such Minimum Tranche Amount is waived by the Administrative Agent. Subject to compliance with the terms of this Section 2.23, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereby consent to the Extensions and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.23 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.11 and 2.18) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.23.

(c) No consent of any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term A Loans of any Class, Term B Loans of any Class, Other Refinancing Term Loans, Revolving Commitments of any Class, Incremental Revolving Commitments and/or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments (or a portion thereof); provided that the consent of the Issuing Bank shall be required to effect an Extension of Revolving Commitments. All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by all or a portion of the Collateral on a pari passu or junior lien basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that, if such Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments rank junior in right of security with any other Obligations, such Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments will be subject to the terms of a Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers as may be necessary in

 

104


order to establish new Tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Revolving Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection with the establishment of such new Tranches or subtranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.23. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then Latest Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the then Latest Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent).

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrowers shall provide the Administrative Agent at least ten (10) days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.23.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall be required to accept an Extension Offer.

SECTION 2.24. Loan Repurchases. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth or referred to below, the Lux Borrower may from time to time, at its discretion, conduct modified Dutch auctions in order to purchase its Term Loans of one or more Classes (as determined by the Lux Borrower) (each, a “Purchase Offer”), each such Purchase Offer to be managed exclusively by the Administrative Agent (or such other financial institution chosen by the Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) (in such capacity, the “Auction Manager”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) each Purchase Offer shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures, terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.24 and the Auction Procedures;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the delivery of each notice of an auction and at the time of (and immediately after giving effect to) the purchase of any Term Loans in connection with any Purchase Offer;

(iii) the principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of each and all Classes of Term Loans that the Lux Borrower offers to purchase in any such Purchase Offer shall be no less than U.S. $25,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent) (across all such Classes);

(iv) after giving effect to any purchase of Term Loans of the applicable Class or Classes pursuant to this Section 2.24, Liquidity shall not be less than $200,000,000;

(v) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans of the applicable Class or Classes so purchased by the Lux Borrower shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Lux Borrower on the settlement date of the relevant purchase (and may not be resold), and in no event shall the Lux Borrower be entitled to any vote hereunder in connection with such Term Loans;

(vi) no more than one Purchase Offer with respect to any Class may be ongoing at any one time;

 

105


(vii) the Lux Borrower represents and warrants that no Loan Party shall have any material non-public information with respect to the Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries, or with respect to the Loans or the securities of any such Person, that (A) has not been previously disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (other than because such Lender does not wish to receive such material non-public information) prior to such time and (B) could reasonably be expected to have a material effect upon, or otherwise be material to, a Lender’s decision to participate in the Purchase Offer;

(viii) at the time of each purchase of Term Loans through a Purchase Offer, the Lux Borrower shall have delivered to the Auction Manager an officer’s certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying as to compliance with the preceding clause (vii);

(ix) any Purchase Offer with respect to any Class shall be offered to all Term Lenders holding Term Loans of such Class on a pro rata basis; and

(x) no purchase of any Term Loans shall be made from the proceeds of any Revolving Loan or Swingline Loan.

(b) The Lux Borrower must terminate any Purchase Offer if it fails to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of purchase of Term Loans pursuant to such Purchase Offer. If the Lux Borrower commences any Purchase Offer (and all relevant requirements set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of such Purchase Offer have in fact been satisfied), and if at such time of commencement the Lux Borrower reasonably believes that all required conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the consummation of such Purchase Offer shall be satisfied, then the Lux Borrower shall have no liability to any Term Lender for any termination of such Purchase Offer as a result of its failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of consummation of such Purchase Offer, and any such failure shall not result in any Default or Event of Default hereunder. With respect to all purchases of Term Loans of any Class or Classes made by the Lux Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.24, (x) the Lux Borrower shall pay on the settlement date of each such purchase all accrued and unpaid interest (except to the extent otherwise set forth in the relevant offering documents), if any, on the purchased Term Loans of the applicable Class or Classes up to the settlement date of such purchase and (y) such purchases (and the payments made by the Lux Borrower and the cancellation of the purchased Loans, in each case in connection therewith) shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.11 hereof.

(c) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Purchase Offers and the other transactions effected pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.24; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall have an obligation to participate in any such Purchase Offer. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the provisions of Sections 2.16, 2.18 and 9.04 will not apply to the purchases of Term Loans pursuant to Purchase Offers made pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.24. The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article VIII and Section 9.03 to the same extent as if each reference therein to the “Agents” were a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Purchase Offer.

(d) This Section 2.24 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.02 to the contrary.

 

106


SECTION 2.25. Refinancing Amendment. At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrowers may obtain, from any Lender or any Refinancing Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of the Loans or Commitments of such Borrowers then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this Section 2.25 will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Refinancing Loans, Other Refinancing Commitments, Incremental Loans, Incremental Commitments, Extended Loans or Extended Commitments), in the form of Other Refinancing Loans or Other Refinancing Commitments in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and of security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder; provided that, if such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness ranks junior in right of security with any other Loans or Commitments hereunder, such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness will be subject to the terms of a Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) will have such pricing, premiums and optional prepayment or redemption terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof; (iii) will have a maturity date no earlier than, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity equal to or greater than, the Loans or Commitments being refinanced and (iv) will have terms and conditions that are substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) are no more favorable to the lenders or holders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness than those applicable to the Loans or Commitments being refinanced; provided, further, that the terms and conditions applicable to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the applicable Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is issued, incurred or obtained. Any Other Refinancing Loans or Other Refinancing Commitments, as applicable, may participate on a pro rata basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments hereunder, as specified in the applicable Refinancing Amendment. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements generally consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date pursuant to Sections 4.01(b) and (f) (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Each Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.25 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $100,000,000. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Refinancing Loans and/or Other Refinancing Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25. This Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.02 to the contrary.

SECTION 2.26. Illegality. If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate or the B/A Discount Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate or the B/A Discount Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent,

 

107


(i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans or Bankers’ Acceptance Loans (as applicable) or to convert ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans to Bankers’ Acceptance Loans (as applicable) shall be suspended, (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, and (iii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Canadian Prime Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to clause (ii) of the definition of Canadian Prime Rate, the interest rate on which Canadian Prime Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (ii) of such definition, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert (A) all Eurocurrency Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loan and/or (B) all Bankers’ Acceptance Loans of such Lender to Canadian Prime Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Canadian Prime Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (ii) of the definition of Canadian Prime Rate), on the maturity date therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Bankers’ Acceptance Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Bankers’ Acceptance Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon (A) the LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate and/or (B) the B/A Discount Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Canadian Prime Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to clause (ii) of the definition thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the B/A Discount Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties

In order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to (A) enter into this Agreement on the Closing Date and (B) make each Loan or other extension of credit to be made hereunder on each applicable Credit Event, each of Irish Holdco, Irish Sub Holdco, Lux Holdco and the Borrowers represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and Lenders that, on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Transactions) and on the date of each other Credit Event, that each of the following statements are true and correct in all material respects:

SECTION 3.01. Organization; Powers; Subsidiaries. Each of the Parent, Irish Holdco and their respective Material Restricted Subsidiaries is duly organized, incorporated (in the case of the Parent, Irish Holdco, Irish Sub Holdco and Irish Sub Finco) and validly existing and (to the extent the

 

108

Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to the relevant Lenders in their respective capacities as a Lead Arranger, Documentation Agent and/or Syndication Agent, as applicable, as it makes with respect to the Agents in the preceding paragraph.

The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Agents) authorized to act for, any other Lender. The Agents shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

In their respective capacities, the Agents are “representatives” of the Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code. Each Lender authorizes the Agents to enter into each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Secured Party (other than the Agents) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Agents for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Collateral Documents. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Agents are hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and

 

153


perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. The Lenders hereby authorize the Collateral Agent to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral as described in Section 9.13. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant hereto.

The Agents are hereby authorized to execute and deliver any documents necessary or appropriate to create and perfect the rights of pledge for the benefit of the Secured Parties including a right of pledge with respect to the entitlements to profits, the balance left after winding up and the voting rights of the Irish Holdco as ultimate parent of any subsidiary of the Borrowers which is organized under the laws of the Netherlands and the Equity Interests of which are pledged in connection herewith (a “Dutch Pledge”). Without prejudice to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree with the creation of parallel debt obligations of the Irish Holdco or any relevant Subsidiary as will be described in any Dutch Pledge (the “Parallel Debt”), including that any payment received by the Agents in respect of the Parallel Debt will - conditionally upon such payment not subsequently being avoided or reduced by virtue of any provisions or enactments relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, preference, liquidation or similar laws of general application - be deemed a satisfaction of a pro rata portion of the corresponding amounts of the Obligations, and any payment to the Secured Parties in satisfaction of the Obligations shall - conditionally upon such payment not subsequently being avoided or reduced by virtue of any provisions or enactments relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, preference, liquidation or similar laws of general application - be deemed as satisfaction of the corresponding amount of the Parallel Debt. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, for purposes of a Dutch Pledge, any resignation by an Agent is not effective until its rights under the Parallel Debt are assigned to the successor Agent.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree for the purposes of taking and ensuring the continuing validity of German law governed pledges (Pfandrechte) with the creation of parallel debt obligations of the Irish Holdco or any relevant Subsidiary as will be further described in a separate German law governed parallel debt undertaking. The Collateral Agent shall (i) hold such parallel debt undertaking as fiduciary agent (Treuhaender) and (ii) administer and hold as fiduciary agent (Treuhaender) any pledge created under a German law governed Collateral Document which is created in favor of any Secured Party or transferred to any Secured Party due to its accessory nature (Akzessorietaet), in each case in its own name and for the account of the Secured Parties. Each Lender, on its own behalf and on behalf of its affiliated Secured Parties, hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter as its agent in its name and on its behalf into any German law governed Collateral Document, to accept as its agent in its name and on its behalf any pledge under such Collateral Document and to agree to and execute as agent in its name and on its behalf any amendments, supplements and other alterations to any such Collateral Document and to release any such Collateral Document and any pledge created under any such Collateral Document in accordance with the provisions herein and/or the provisions in any such Collateral Document.

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are authorized to enter into any Intercreditor Agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, and extensions, restructuring, renewals, replacements of, such agreements) in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any Permitted First Lien Indebtedness, Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt, Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt or Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness with respect thereto, or any other Indebtedness permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior priority secured basis, in each case in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected Lien (with such priority as may be designated by the Irish Holdco or relevant Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent

 

154


such priority is permitted by the Loan Documents), and the parties hereto acknowledge that each Intercreditor Agreement is (if entered into) binding upon them. Each Lender (a) understands, acknowledges and agrees that Liens may be created on the Collateral pursuant to the documentation relating to any Indebtedness incurred as permitted by this Agreement which is (in accordance with the terms hereof) to be secured thereby, on a pari passu, or junior, secured basis to the Liens securing the Secured Obligations, which Liens securing any such other Indebtedness shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant Intercreditor Agreement executed and delivered as required hereby, (b) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the respective Intercreditor Agreement (if entered into) and (c) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to enter into any Intercreditor Agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements) in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any secured Indebtedness as contemplated above, in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected Lien (with such priority as may be designated by the Borrowers or relevant Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent such priority is permitted by the Loan Documents), and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations to the provisions thereof.

(c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.

SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce

 

156


such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by either Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.20 with respect to an Incremental Amendment, Section 2.23 with respect to an Extension Amendment and Section 2.25 with respect to a Refinancing Amendment, and except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 9.19, neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided that (x) any amendment to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (ii) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or any LC Disbursement or to reduce any fee payable hereunder and (y) only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to reduce or waive any obligation of the Borrowers to pay interest or fees at the applicable default rate set forth in Section 2.13(c), (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement (other than any reduction of the amount of, or any extension of the payment date for, the mandatory prepayments required under Section 2.11, in each case which shall only require the approval of the Required Lenders), or any interest thereon (other than interest payable at the applicable default rate of interest set forth in Section 2.13(c)), or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.18(b) or (d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or the definitions of “Required Lenders” or “Majority in Interest” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood that, solely with the consent of the parties prescribed by Section 2.20 to be parties to an Incremental Amendment, Incremental Term Loans may be included in the determination of Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Loans are included on the Closing Date), (vi) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) except as provided in Section 9.13 or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender or (viii) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class without the written consent of Lenders representing a Majority in Interest of each adversely affected Class; provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be.

 

157


(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (x) to add one or more credit facilities (in addition to the Incremental Term Loans pursuant to an Incremental Amendment and any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment) to this Agreement and to permit extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Revolving Loans, the Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Lenders, and for purposes of the relevant provisions of Section 2.18(b).

(d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrowers may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity (which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent) shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04, and (ii) the Borrowers shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by each Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.15 and 2.17, (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.16 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender and (3) any amounts owing to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(d). A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) if following the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent and any Loan Party shall have jointly identified an ambiguity, inconsistency, obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the applicable Loan Parties shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof and (ii) guarantees, collateral security agreements, pledge agreements and related documents (if any) executed by the Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended, supplemented and/or waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Lux Borrower without the input or need to obtain the consent of any other Lenders if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (x) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (y) to cure ambiguities, omissions or defects or (z) to cause such guarantees, collateral security agreements, pledge agreement or other documents to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco and the Borrowers shall (and hereby jointly and severally agree to) pay

 

158


(i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agents, in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through a service such as Intralinks) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel (other than in-house counsel) for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including its rights under this Section 9.03, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided, however, that in no event shall the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco or the Borrowers be required to reimburse the Lenders for more than one counsel to the Agents (and up to one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and regulatory counsel) and one counsel for all of the other Lenders (and up to one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and regulatory counsel), unless a Lender or its counsel determines that it would create actual or potential conflicts of interest to not have individual counsel, in which case each Lender may have its own counsel which shall be reimbursed in accordance with the foregoing.

(b) Except in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes otherwise covered by Section 2.17(c), the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco and the Borrowers shall, and jointly and severally agree to, indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee (but excluding any Excluded Taxes), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Parent, the Irish Holdco or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Parent, the Irish Holdco or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether (x) any Indemnitee is a party thereto or (y) such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Irish Holdco or any of its affiliates; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Indemnified Persons.

(c) To the extent that the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco or any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03, each

 

159


Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and each Revolving Lender severally agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (it being understood that any Borrower’s failure to pay any such amount shall not relieve such Borrower of any default in the payment thereof); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco nor any Borrower shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet) other than damages that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Indemnified Persons, or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable not later than fifteen (15) days after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns.

Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the applicable Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 (in the case of Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans) or $1,000,000 (in the case of a Term Loan) unless each of the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the applicable Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, such fee to be paid by either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender or shared between such Lenders;

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of and interest on the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by each Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(e) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (excluding (x) the Parent and its Affiliates and (y) any Person that is not an Eligible Transferee) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, no participation shall be sold to a prospective participant that bears a relationship to the applicable Borrower described in Section 108(e)(4) of the Code. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 9.04, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(d) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the applicable Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the applicable Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of such Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the applicable Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

 

163


(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) In the case of any assignment, transfer or novation by a Lender to a new Lender, or any participation by such Lender in favor of a Participant, of all or any part of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, such Lender and the new Lender or Participant (as applicable) hereby agree that, for the purposes of Article 1278 and/or Article 1281 of the Luxembourg Civil Code (to the extent applicable), any assignment, amendment, transfer and/or novation of any kind permitted under, and made in accordance with the provisions of, this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein to which the Lux Borrower, Lux Holdco or Lux Sub Finco is a party (including any Collateral Document), any security created or guarantee given under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be preserved and shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of such new Lender or Participant (as applicable).

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid (except for Unliquidated Obligations) or any Letter of Credit is outstanding (unless such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized) and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or “flex” rights constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or by email as a “.pdf” or “.tif” attachment shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

164


SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final and in whatever currency denominated) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco, any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor against any of and all of the Secured Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided that any recovery by any Lender or any Affiliate pursuant to its setoff rights under this Section 9.08 is subject to the provisions of Section 2.18(d). The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

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.

(c) The Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco and each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent they may legally and effectively do so, any objection which they 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 other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.09. 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.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Failure by the Process Agent to give notice to the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco or failure of the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco or the Lux Borrower to receive notice of such service of process shall not impair or affect the validity of such service on the Process Agent or the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco or the Lux Borrower, or of any judgment based thereon. The Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco and the Lux Borrower each covenant and agree that it shall take any and all reasonable action, including the execution and filing of any and all documents, that may be necessary to continue the delegation of the Process Agent above in full force and effect, and to cause the Process Agent to act as such.

Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.12 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.

SECTION 9.13. Release of Liens and Guarantees. A Subsidiary Guarantor (that is not aother than Irish Holdco and any Borrower) shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise.

167


and the Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

SECTION 9.16. No Fiduciary Relationship. The Irish Holdco, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agrees that, in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and any communications in connection therewith: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Irish Holdco and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lenders and their Affiliates, on the other hand, (B) the Irish Holdco has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Irish Holdco is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Lenders and their Affiliates is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Irish Holdco, the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to the Irish Holdco, the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except, in the case of a Lender, those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) each of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Irish Holdco and its Affiliates, and no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Irish Holdco, the Borrowers or their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Irish Holdco and the Borrowers hereby waive and release any claims that they may have against each of the Lenders and their Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

SECTION 9.17. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 9.18. Co-Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that the Co-Borrower shall be a co-borrower with respect to all Loans and other Obligations of the Lux Borrower hereunder, and each reference herein to “the Lux Borrower” or to the “Borrower” with respect to any Loans (other than Revolving Loans and related extensions of credit incurred directly by the Lux Borrower) or Obligations of the Lux Borrower hereunder shall be deemed to be a reference to each of the Lux Borrower and the Co-Borrower, jointly and severally. Each of the Lux Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for all such Loans and other Obligations, regardless of which Borrower actually receives the benefit thereof or

 

168


the manner in which they account for such Loans and Obligations on their books and records. Upon the commencement and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Agents and the applicable Lenders may (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) proceed directly and at once, without notice, against either the Lux Borrower or the Co-Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of, such Obligations, without first proceeding against the other Borrower or any other Person, or any security or collateral for such Obligations. Each of the Lux Borrower and the Co-Borrower consents and agrees that neither the Agents nor the Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of such Obligations.

SECTION 9.19. Parent Guarantor Option. The Lenders party hereto acknowledge and agree that, except as otherwise provided below, the Parent is neither a Guarantor nor a Loan Party. At the option of the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco, the Borrowers and the Parent, which may be exercised at any time upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent, and so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, at their option the Parent may become a Guarantor and Loan Party (becoming a party hereto (and a Guarantor pursuant to Article X)) and a party to such other Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, accompanied by customary legal opinions as may be requested by the Administrative Agent, at any time after the Closing Date. In the event of an election pursuant to the previous sentence, the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, Lux Holdco, Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco and the Parent shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement (which shall not require the consent of any Lenders or any other Person) in order to provide for the joinder of the Parent as a Guarantor hereunder, and which amendment shall (i) amend Article X in an appropriate manner to provide for the Guaranty by the Parent, (ii) in places other than Article X, as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, the Lux Holdco, the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco and the Parent, (x) replace references to the “Irish Holdco” with references to the “Parent”, including for purposes of prospective provisions of financial statements and for purposes of calculating financial covenants and financial terms as used herein, and/or (y) add references to the “Parent” (as appropriate) where the Irish Holdco is referenced, (iii) delete clause (r) of Article VII and (iv) make such other technical changes as may be agreed or required by the Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to take the actions contemplated by this Section 9.19 upon the request of the Parent, the Irish Holdco, the Irish Sub Holdco, the Lux Holdco, and the Borrowers.

(v) any of the Secured Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including, without limitation, for the benefit of any creditor of the Irish Holdco, Irish Sub Holdco or Lux Holdco) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of the Irish Holdco, Irish Sub Holdco or Lux Holdco).

(c) With respect to its obligations hereunder, each of the Irish Holdco, Irish Sub Holdco and Lux Holdco hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other holder of the Secured Obligations exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Secured Obligations.
