Mandatory Prepayments Section 2.20 of the Loan Agreement shall be amended by amending Section 2.20(a) and adding a new Section 2.20(d), each as follows: (1) Section 2.20(a) shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows: (a) Subject to Section 7.1 hereof, when any Borrower sells or otherwise disposes of any Collateral other than Inventory in the Ordinary Course of Business, Borrowers shall repay the Advances in an amount equal to the net proceeds of such sale (i.e., gross proceeds less the reasonable direct costs of such sales or other dispositions), such repayments to be made promptly but in no event more than three (3) Business Days following receipt of such net proceeds, and until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in trust for Agent. The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof. Such repayments shall be applied to the outstanding Advances (x) first, to the outstanding principal installments of the Term Loans in the inverse order of the maturities thereof, (y) second, to the outstanding principal installments of the Equipment Loans in the inverse order of the maturities thereof, and (z) third, to the remaining Advances (including cash collateralization of all Obligations relating to any outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2(b), provided however that if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such repayments shall be applied to cash collateralize any Obligations related to outstanding Letters of Credit last) in such order as Agent may determine, subject to Borrowers’ ability to reborrow Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms hereof. (2) a new Section 2.20(d) shall be added as follows:
Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions (a) If any Capital Stock shall be issued by the US Borrower (other than as set forth below with respect to Excluded Proceeds) or (ii) if any Indebtedness shall be incurred by any Group Member, excluding any Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Section 7.2 as in effect on the Closing Date (except Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 7.2(g)(i)(x)), then on the date of such issuance or incurrence, the Term Loans shall be prepaid, and/or the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid, by an amount equal to, in the case of an issuance of Capital Stock, 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, or in the case of Indebtedness, 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds, other than any Excluded Proceeds, of such issuance or incurrence, as set forth in Section 2.13(d). The provisions of this Section do not constitute a consent to the issuance of any equity securities by any entity whose equity securities are pledged pursuant to the Guarantee and US Collateral Agreement or the Canadian Collateral Agreement, or a consent to the incurrence of any Indebtedness by any Group Member. (b) If on any date any Group Member shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale, Purchase Price Refund or Recovery Event then, except as provided in the following sentence, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, on the date of receipt by such Group Member of such Net Cash Proceeds, the Term Loans shall be prepaid, and/or the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid, by an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, as set forth in Section 2.13(d); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales and Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to one or more Reinvestment Notices and pending reinvestment at any given time shall not exceed $40,000,000 and (ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date the Term Loans shall be prepaid, and/or the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid, by an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event, as set forth in Section 2.13(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Net Cash Proceeds received from dispositions permitted by Section 7.5(e) shall be applied on the date of receipt to repay outstanding Revolving Loans. The provisions of this Section do not constitute a consent to the consummation of any Disposition not permitted by Section 7.5. (c) If for any fiscal year of the US Borrower commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 there shall be Excess Cash Flow, then, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, the Term Loans shall be prepaid and/or the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid, by an amount equal to 50% of such Excess Cash Flow, as set forth in Section 2.13(d). Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the US Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered. (d) Except as otherwise provided in clause (b) above with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received from dispositions permitted by Section 7.5(e), amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments and Commitment reductions made pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be applied, first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans and, second, to the repayment of the Revolving Credit Loans, as provided in Section 2.19. Any repayment of Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall not result in a reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments. (e) If at any time the Dollar Equivalent of the total aggregate amount of the Revolving US/CA Extensions of Credit exceeds the Total Revolving Credit US/CA Commitments, the Borrowers shall repay Revolving Credit US/CA Loans and/or Swing Line Loans to such extent; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit US/CA Loans and Swing Line Loans is less than such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrowers shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in a cash collateral account established with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If at any time the total aggregate amount of the Revolving CA Extensions of Credit exceeds the Total Revolving Credit CA Commitments, the Canadian Borrower shall repay Revolving Credit CA Loans and/or Swing Line Loans to such extent; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit CA Loans and Swing Line Loans to the Canadian Borrower is less than such excess (because L/C Obligations of the Canadian Borrower constitute a portion thereof), the Canadian Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace its outstanding Letters or Credit and/or deposit an amount in a cash collateral account established with the Canadian Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Canadian Agent. (f) If at any time the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of the Total Extensions of Credit exceeds the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrowers shall repay Revolving Credit Loans and/or Swing Line Loans to such extent; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans is less than such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrowers shall to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in a cash collateral account established with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
Mandatory Prepayments Commitment Reductions (a) No later than the tenth calendar day following the date of receipt by any Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale, the Company shall apply all such Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds to repay any outstanding Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(a); provided that, if the Borrower provides written notice to the Administrative Agent within seven calendar days of the date any such Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds are so received of its intention to undertake such an investment, then so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall have the option, directly or indirectly or through one or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries, to invest such Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds within twelve months of receipt thereof in assets of the general type used in the business of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, further, that, if any portion of such Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds have not been so reinvested at the end of such twelve-month period, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to the amount of Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds that have not been so reinvested as set forth in Section 2.13(a). (b) No later than the tenth Business Day following the date of receipt by any Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Net Equity Issuance Event Cash Proceeds from any Equity Issuance Event, the Company shall apply 33% of all such Net Equity Issuance Event Cash Proceeds (such amount, the “Equity Prepayment Amount”) to repay any outstanding Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(a), and each such prepayment shall be accompanied by a permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments in an amount equal to such Equity Prepayment Amount. (c) If at any time, the Aggregate Total Exposure exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall forthwith prepay first, Loans, and second Cash Collateralize the outstanding amount of Letter of Credit Usage at the Agreed L/C Cash Collateral Amount, to the extent necessary so that the Aggregate Total Exposure shall not exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect (or, in the case of Letter of Credit Usage, such amounts are fully Cash Collateralized in compliance with the Agreed Cash Collateral Amount). (d) If, after giving effect to any termination of or reduction of the Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Commitments, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess (including a corresponding reduction to each Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Issuer Sublimit (ratably) unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and each applicable Issuing Bank).
Mandatory Prepayment of Loans (a) On and after the Acquisition Closing Date and prior to the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date, (i) if any New Senior Unsecured Notes shall be issued or incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.6.4 and (ii) if any other Indebtedness (other than as set forth in clause (i) or permitted under Section 6.18) shall be issued or incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary an amount (less the amount required or applied, if any, to repay or reduce commitments under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) or other senior secured Indebtedness that such Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) permit such proceeds to be shared with in accordance with their terms) equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.6.4. (b) On and after the Acquisition Closing Date and prior to the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date, if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than (x) issuances pursuant to the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s equity compensation plans, employee stock purchase plan and any dividend reinvestment or direct purchase plan and issuances similar to the foregoing and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, issuances or sales of Capital Stock of the Company representing or in connection with elections by shareholders of the Target to receive all or a portion of the equity component of their consideration in the form of cash from the sale of all or a portion of such equity component by the Company or its Subsidiaries), 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on the date of such issuance or sale toward the prepayment of the Loans. After the Initial Bridge Loan Maturity Date, Loans hereunder, if any, shall be subject to mandatory redemption provisions applicable to the Exchange Notes in the Exchange Indenture, and shall be entitled to offers for mandatory redemption ratably with any such Exchange Notes and, if applicable, New Senior Unsecured Notes, if any. (c) On and after the Acquisition Closing Date, if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereto, 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds not required or applied to repay or reduce commitments under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) or other senior secured Indebtedness that such Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) permit such proceeds to be shared with in accordance with their terms, shall be applied on or prior to the fifth Business Day after such receipt (or in the case of an Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event in an amount less than $75,000,000, on or prior to the date five Business Days after the date the financial statements for the fiscal quarter in which such event occurred are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(i) or (ii)) toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.6.4; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no later than each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event (less amounts required or applied to repay or reduce commitments under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) or other senior secured Indebtedness that such Senior Secured Credit Facilities (or any Permitted Refinancing thereof) permit such proceeds to be shared with in accordance with their terms) shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.6.4. Prepayments from, and, without duplication, of amounts equal to, Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale Prepayment Event or Recovery Event by or of a Foreign Subsidiary (to the extent otherwise required) will be limited to the extent (x) the repatriation of Foreign Subsidiaries’ funds to fund such prepayments is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable laws, (y) repatriation of Foreign Subsidiaries’ funds to fund such prepayment could reasonably be expected to result in adverse tax consequences to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or (z) such funds originate at the Target or its Subsidiaries prior to the Domination Agreement Effective Date. All mandatory prepayments are subject to permissibility under (a) in the case of Foreign Subsidiaries, local law restrictions (such as restrictions relating to financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant Restricted Subsidiaries) and (b) with respect to non-Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries, organizational document restrictions, to the extent not created in contemplation of such prepayments. The non-application of any such mandatory prepayment amounts in compliance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph will not constitute an Unmatured Default or Default and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries. The Company will undertake to use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome or eliminate any such restrictions and/or minimize any such costs of prepayment (subject to the considerations above) to make the relevant payment, other than, for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent resulting from asset sales or operations of the Target and its Restricted Subsidiaries prior to the Domination Agreement Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments made after application of the above provisions shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes incurred by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates or equity partners and arising as a result of compliance with this paragraph.
Mandatory Prepayments of Loans (a) If the Agent notifies the Borrower at any time that the Total Revolving Usage at such time exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Commitment then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall prepay Loans and/or the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize (or provide other Backup Support for) the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the Total Revolving Usage as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment then in effect. (b) If the Borrower or any Subsidiary receives any Net Cash Proceeds from any of the following events, the Borrower shall, for so long as any Term Loans are outstanding, apply such Net Cash Proceeds at the following times and in the order of application set forth in subsection (d) below (any such application, a “Proceeds Application”): (i) Within five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from any Disposition pursuant to Section 8.02(j) or Recovery Event (in each case excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, amounts reinvested or to be reinvested as contemplated by the definition of “Net Cash Proceeds”), the Borrower shall make a Proceeds Application in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. (ii) Within five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from (x) the issuance of any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted by Section 8.05 (other than Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt)) or (y) any increase in the Outstanding Securitization Amount above the highest Outstanding Securitization Amount, if any, previously in effect, the Borrower shall make a Proceeds Application in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. (c) Within 10 days of the date financial statements and the related compliance certificate have been delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a), commencing with the financial statements and related compliance certificate relating to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, the Borrower shall prepay Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to: (i) the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements, minus (ii) the aggregate amount of all optional prepayments and repurchases of Loans (including Incremental Facilities, Other Term Loans and Other Revolving Loans secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Obligations) (in the case of revolving indebtedness, to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction of the corresponding commitment and limited, in the case of below par repurchases, to the amount actually paid in cash to repurchase such Indebtedness), in each case, (A) made during such fiscal year or following the end of such fiscal year and prior to the date that a prepayment would be due under this Section 2.09(c) (provided, with respect to any such amount following the end of such fiscal year, such amount is not included in any subsequent calculation pursuant to this clause (c)), (B) to the extent not financed with the proceeds of long-term indebtedness (other than revolving indebtedness) and (C) to the extent not otherwise deducted in the calculation of Excess Cash Flow; provided, no payment shall be required if such amount is equal to or less than $10,000,000. (d) Except to the extent any Incremental Amendment or Extension Amendment provides that the Term Loans established thereby shall receive a lesser amount from any prepayment pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) above, each prepayment pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) above shall be applied ratably to the Term Loan(s) of each Class in proportion to the original principal amounts thereof, and shall be applied, without premium or penalty, but subject to Section 4.04, to the scheduled installments of principal of the applicable Term Loans in the direct order of maturity or as the Borrower may otherwise direct. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at the time that any such prepayment would be required, the Borrower is required to repay or repurchase or to offer to repurchase or repay Indebtedness secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Obligations pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with all or a portion of the applicable Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow (such Indebtedness required to be repaid or repurchased or to be offered to be so repaid or repurchased, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then the Borrower may apply such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repayment or repurchase of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be reduced accordingly (for purposes of this proviso pro rata basis shall be determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time, with it being agreed that the portion of Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof). (e) So long as any Term Loans remain outstanding, any Term Lender may elect to decline the entire portion of the prepayment of its Term Loans pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) of this Section 2.09 by delivering written notice of such election to the Agent within three days of such prepayment being due. The aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay such Term Loans but were so declined shall be returned to the Borrower as promptly as practicable.
