“Applicable Curtailment Date” means, with respect to any Floor Plan Vehicle or Unit and a Floor Plan Loan relating to such Floor Plan Vehicle or Unit, the date that a curtailment payment is due based on the following methodology: The phrase “Applicable Curtailment Date” is typically followed by a numeral, which represents the number of days after the Applicable Starting Date for the Floor Plan Vehicle or Unit.

(c) Each Floor Plan Loan extended by a Floor Plan Lender shall be in a principal amount equal to such Floor Plan Lender’s Floor Plan Loan Commitment Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Floor Plan Loans requested on such occasion.

The joint and several obligations of the Floor Plan Borrowers to repay the Floor Plan Loans to each Floor Plan Lender shall be evidenced by a Floor Plan Loan Note. On the Closing Date, the Floor Plan Borrowers shall deliver a Floor Plan Loan Note executed by an Authorized Officer of each Floor Plan Borrower to each of the Floor Plan Lenders, with the face amount of such Floor Plan Loan Notes to be in the amount of the Floor Plan Loan Commitment of the respective Floor Plan Lender. Any Floor Plan Lender may request upon the Increase Effective Date a revised Floor Plan Loan Note in respect of a Floor Plan Increase.

2.01.2 Procedure For Floor Plan Loan Borrowings. (a) The Floor Plan Borrowers may borrow Floor Plan Loans during the Availability Period in respect of the Floor Plan Facility, provided, that the Borrower Representative on behalf of the Floor Plan Borrowers delivers to the Administrative Agent or causes to be delivered to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable, written, fully completed Loan Request (or through such other online system as the Administrative Agent may allow in its sole discretion). Loan Requests must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date for any Floor Plan Vehicles or Units. Any Loan Request delivered to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower Representative on behalf of the Floor Plan Borrowers shall be in the form approved by the Administrative Agent executed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower Representative. Each Loan Request shall specify: (a) the aggregate amount to be borrowed, (b) the requested Borrowing Date, (c) whether the borrowing is to be an Adjusted Daily SOFR Borrowing or an Adjusted Base Rate Borrowing, and (d) the required information and calculations evidencing compliance with the limitations set forth in Section 2.01 above, and shall be accompanied by the Floor Plan Borrowers’ inventory worksheet and a copy of the title to any Eligible Used Floor Plan Unit. Loan Requests may be delivered to the Administrative Agent via facsimile or by otherby electronic transmission, it being agreed that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of the Person making any such request without receipt of any other confirmation. Unless M&T Bank elects to fund a submitted Loan Request as an M&T Advance in accordance with Section 2.02 of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Floor Plan Lender of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of each notice and the contents thereof. Each Floor Plan Lender shall make the amount of its pro rata share (calculated in accordance with its respective Floor Plan Loan Commitment Percentage) of each requested borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Floor Plan Borrowers at the offices of the Administrative Agent specified in this Agreement prior to 2:00 pm (Eastern Time) on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower Representative in U.S. Dollars and in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent.

(b) With respect to financing any Floor Plan Borrower’s purchase of an Eligible New Floor Plan Unit or a Permitted Company Vehicle, each of the Floor Plan Borrowers hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and M&T Bank (with respect to M&T Advances) to receive and receive and process funding requests directly from Manufacturers, compile such requests into a spreadsheet on the Administrative Agent’s standard form and forward same to the Borrower Representative for approval. Upon such approval, the Floor Plan Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent (and M&T Bank with respect to M&T Advances) to pay the New Unit Invoiced Amount on account of the relevant Eligible New Floor Plan Unit or Permitted Company Vehicle directly to the applicable Manufacturer or vendor. In the case of any other borrowing of Floor Plan Loans, including aany Reflooring Loan, such borrowing will be made available thereafter by the Administrative Agent crediting the Commercial Account with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Floor Plan Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.01.3 Overadvances.

At the end of each month (or, at the election of the Administrative Agent, on the Floor Plan Loan Adjustment Date occurring in the fourth calendar week of any calendar month), the Equity Offset interest accrued shall be applied to accrued and unpaid interest on account of the Floor Plan Loans as billed by the Administrative Agent, reducing, pro-rata, the interest receivable of each Floor Plan Lender. Interest accrued in the Equity Offset shall not exceed the aggregate Loan interest receivable of the Floor Plan Lenders at any given time, and Equity Offset excess balances shall automatically transfer to a secondary non-interest bearing Equity Offset.

(d) The Administrative Agent on behalf of the Floor Plan Lenders shall have the use of any Equity Balance in its possession and may commingle any Equity Balance with other funds of the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each of the Floor Plan Borrowers hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Floor Plan Lenders a continuing security interest in the Equity Balance and all accrued interest thereon and proceeds thereof, and acknowledges and agrees that the Equity Balance shall constitute Collateral under this Agreement and the Security Documents. The Administrative Agent shall have such rights to the Equity Balance as may be afforded by the Security Agreement and by applicable Law. The security interest in the Equity Balance and accrued interest and proceeds hereby granted by each of the Floor Plan Borrowers is in addition to any other rights of the M&T Bank, as Administrative Agent and otherwise, against any or all of the Floor Plan Borrowers, and shall be and remain under the exclusive possession, use, and control, and subject to rights of setoff, of M&T Bank in its various capacities hereunder and under the Security Documents.

(f) This Floor Plan Interest Reduction Arrangement may be terminated (i) by the Administrative Agent, (A) upon ten (10) days prior written notice to the Borrower Representative, and (B) in its sole discretion, without prior notice upon the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or Material Adverse Change, or a determination by the Administrative Agent that this Floor Plan Interest Reduction Arrangement would have an adverse effect on the Administrative Agent or any Floor Plan Lender, and (ii) by the Floor Plan Borrowers upon ten (10) days prior written notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent. Upon any termination of the Floor Plan Interest Reduction Arrangement in the absence of any Default, Event of Default, or Material Adverse Change, the amounts held therein shall be applied to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on account of the Floor Plan Loans, or, at the option of the Borrower Representative remitted to the Borrowers by deposit to the Commercial Account, and upon any termination of the Floor Plan Interest Reduction Arrangement upon the occurrence and/or during the continuance of any Default, Event of Default, or Material Adverse Change, the amounts held therein shall be applied to any balances of principal and/or interest due on account of the Floor Plan Loans or to any other Obligations, as the Administrative Agent shall determine, and in accordance with Section 8.05 of this Agreement. This Floor Plan Interest Reduction Arrangement, the Equity Balances and Equity Offset, and funds therein shall not, in any event, affect curtailments or other principal payments due on account of the Floor Plan Loans or reduce the outstanding amount of the Floor Plan Loans for purposes of determining availability under the Floor Plan Line of Credit.

The Revolving Credit Borrowers shall have the right at any time, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to permanently reduce, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Credit Dollar Cap, provided that (a) each reduction shall be in an amount of not less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) or, if greater, a multiple of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00), and (b) no reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, and to any repayments of the Revolving Credit Loans made on the effective date thereof, the sum of the aggregate principal balances of the Revolving Credit Loans then unpaid and outstanding plus the aggregate unpaid balances of Swingline Loans plus the aggregate amount of L/C Obligations outstanding would exceed the Line Cap then in effect.

All such repayments shall be applied (i) first, to prepay the outstanding Swingline Loans to the full extent thereof, (ii) second, to prepay the Revolving Credit Loans to the full extent thereof, (iii) third, to prepay outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, and (v) fourth, to Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit in an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount.

 

Section 2.04. Swingline Loan Subfacility. During the Availability Period for the Revolving Credit Facility, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make certain revolving credit loans (each, a “Swingline Loan” and collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) to the Revolving Credit Borrowers in Dollars from time to time on any Business Day provided that, (a) the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Swingline Committed Amount, (b) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Revolving Credit Lender shall not exceed such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, (c) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Line Cap, and (d) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Dollar Cap. Swingline Loans may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Borrowers shall not be permitted to reborrow any amount of the Swingline Loans after the Third Amendment Effective Date once repaid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan if any Credit Party shall have notified the Swingline Lender and the Revolving Credit Borrowers in writing at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Borrowing Date with respect to such Swingline Loan, that the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied and such conditions remain unsatisfied as of the requested time of the making such Swingline Loan. Each Swingline Loan shall be due and payable in full on the earlier of (a) the Swingline Termination Date, or (b) such earlier maturity date as may be agreed to by the Swingline Lender and the Revolving Credit Borrowers. Swingline Loans may only be Adjusted Base Rate Borrowings and may not be SOFR Borrowings.

The Revolving Credit Borrowers shall request each Swingline Loan by a notification from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent and to the Swingline Lender by telephone (confirmed electronically) or electronically not later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the proposed Borrowing Date. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify (a) the aggregate principal amount to be borrowed, (b) the requested Borrowing Date, and (c) the requested maturity date of the requested Swingline Loan. The Swingline Lender will make the requested amount available promptly on the Borrowing Date, to the Administrative Agent (for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Borrowers) who, thereupon, will promptly make such amount available to the Revolving Credit Borrowers on such Borrowing Date in like funds as provided therein. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount not less than the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount.

 

2.04.2. Repayment of Swingline Loans Upon Swingline Conversion Event. Each Revolving Credit Borrower agrees to repay each Swingline Loan made to it within one Business Day of demand therefor by the Swingline Lender and, in any event, within five (5) Business Days after the date such Swingline Loan was made; provided, that the proceeds of a Swingline Loan may not be used to pay a Swingline Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Revolving Credit Borrowers shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Swingline Loans on the Swingline Termination Date (or such earlier date as the Swingline Lender and the Revolving Credit Borrowers may agree in writing). In lieu of demanding repayment of any outstanding Swingline Loan from the Revolving Credit Borrowers, the Swingline Lender may, on behalf of the Revolving Credit Borrowers (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf for such purpose), request a borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans from the Revolving Credit Lenders (with notice to the Borrower Representative) in an amount equal to the principal balance of such Swingline Loan. The minimum borrowing amount limitations contained in Section 2.04.1 shall not apply to any borrowing of such Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to this subsection. The Swingline Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any such borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans not later than 11:00 a.m. at least one Business Day prior to the proposed date of such borrowing. Promptly after receipt of such Loan Notice from the Swingline Lender under the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender and the Borrower Representative of the proposed borrowing. Not later than 10:00 a.m. on the proposed date of such borrowing, each Revolving Credit Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the offices of the Administrative Agent specified in this Agreement for the account of the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loan to be made by such Revolving Credit Lender. The Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans to the Swingline Lender, which shall apply such proceeds to repay such Swingline Loan. Each Revolving Credit Lender irrevocably agrees to extend its pro rata share of the requested Revolving Credit Loans notwithstanding (a) that the amount of the borrowing may not satisfy the Minimum Borrowing Amount for Revolving Credit Loans, (b) that a Default or Event of Default may exist, (c) the failure of any request or deemed request for the Revolving Credit Loans to be timely made, (d) that the date of such borrowing is not a date on which Revolving Credit Loans are otherwise permitted to be made, or (e) any reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

2.04.3. Participations. Immediately upon the making of a Swingline Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to purchase, from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan. In the event that outstanding Swingline Loans cannot be repaid with the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.04.2 for any reason (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other Debtor Relief Laws with respect to the Borrowers), the Revolving Credit Lenders will, as of the date such proposed borrowing otherwise would have occurred but adjusted for any payments received in respect of such Swingline Loan(s) by or for the account of the Revolving Credit Borrowers on or after such date and prior to such purchase, immediately fund their respective participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as necessary to cause such Revolving Credit Lenders to share in such Swingline Loan(s) proportionately in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages in respect of the Revolving Credit Commitments. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Revolving Credit Borrowers (or from any other Person on behalf of the Revolving Credit Borrowers) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this Section and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this Section shall not relieve the Revolving Credit Borrowers of any default by the Revolving Credit Borrowers in the payment thereof; provided, however, that in the event any such payment received by the Administrative Agent is subsequently set aside or is required to be refunded, returned or repaid, such Revolving Credit Lender will repay to the Administrative Agent its proportionate share thereof.

2.04.4. Obligations Absolute. A Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to purchase such a participation in a Swingline Loan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default (including, without limitation, any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 7.01.77.07 or 7.01.87.08), or the termination of any Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of an event or condition which has had or could have a Material Adverse Change, (iv) any breach of any Credit Document by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Borrower or any other Loan Party, or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Revolving Credit Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Credit Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Revolving Credit Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Swingline Lender’s demand therefor, and until such time as such Revolving Credit Lender makes the required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the Credit Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase a participation therein). Further, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Credit Loans, and any other amounts due it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans that such Revolving Credit Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a result of such assignment or otherwise).

Section 2.05. Letter of Credit Subfacility. During the Availability Period for the Revolving Credit Commitments, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, an Authorized Officer of the Borrower Representative may request on behalf of the Revolving Credit Borrowers the issuance of, and the Issuing Bank in reliance upon the agreements of the Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in Section 2.05.3 agrees to issue, Letters of Credit for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Borrowers or any of its Subsidiaries, in a form acceptable to the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time on any Business Day from the Closing Date through, but not including the L/C ExpirationThird Amendment Effective Date, provided, however, that the Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (a) the aggregate amount of L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any requested issuance) exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit, (b) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender exceeds such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or (c) the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders exceeds the Line Cap. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of Letter of Credit Application or other L/C Document submitted by the Borrowers to, or entered into by the Borrowers with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

2.05.1.   Request for Issuance; Amendment; Renewal; Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), an Authorized Officer of the Borrower Representative on behalf of the applicable Revolving Credit Borrower or Revolving Credit Borrowers shall deliver to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a written notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended together with a Letter of Credit Application, and specifying the proposed date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with Section 2.05.2), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. Such written notice may be transmitted electronically or by facsimile, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank. Upon receipt of the Letter of Credit Application executed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower Representative, the Issuing Bank shall process such Letter of Credit Application and issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby, provided all fees and expenses in connection with such Letter of Credit have been paid and all other conditions precedent to the issuance of Letters of Credit have been satisfied and, provided further, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Issuing Bank of the Letter of Credit Application and of all of the certificates, documents and other papers and information required by the Issuing Bank which relate thereto. The Issuing Bank shall promptly furnish a copy of each Letter of Credit to the Administrative Agent and to the Borrower Representative. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and, upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Revolving Credit Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the provisos set forth in Section 2.05(a) through (g) are satisfied. The Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to amend any Letter of Credit if the Issuing Bank would not be required at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms of this Agreement. Upon the issuance by the Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) without duplication of any amounts included under clause (A), any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

 

2.05.2.   Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (a) the date that is 365 days after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, 365 days after such renewal or extension) and (b) the L/C Expiration Date, provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional 365-day periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the L/C Expiration Date).

2.05.3.   Agreement of Lenders To Purchase Proportionate Share of Letters of Credit. Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit and the Issuing Bank’s determination that such demand for payment complies with the requirements of such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the applicable Revolving Credit Borrower or the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by the Issuing Bank as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank’s failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the applicable Revolving Credit Borrower in any respect from the applicable Reimbursement Obligation. In order to induce the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit for the accounts of the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, each Revolving Credit Lender unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Bank, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s own account and risk an undivided interest and participation equal to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in the Issuing Bank’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each L/C Disbursement of the Issuing Bank.

2.05.4.   Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrowers. Each Revolving Credit Lender unconditionally and irrevocably covenants to the Issuing Bank that, if an L/C Disbursement is made by the Issuing Bank with respect to any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Bank is not immediately reimbursed in full by the Revolving Credit Borrowers, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, upon the demand by the Administrative Agent, an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the unreimbursed amount of such L/C Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day specified by the Administrative Agent in its demand for payment. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.05.3 to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any L/C Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their joint and several obligations to reimburse such L/C Disbursement; provided, however, that the Revolving Credit Borrowers unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally, covenant to reimburse the Issuing Bank by paying to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, the amount of such L/C Disbursement by the not later than 12:00 noon on (i) the Business Day that the Revolving Credit Borrowers receive notice of such drawing, if such notice is received by the Revolving Credit Borrowers prior to 10:00 a.m., or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Revolving Credit Borrowers receive such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time, for the amount of (x) such L/C Disbursement and (y) any amounts incurred by such Issuing Bank in connection with such payment; provided, further, that in respect of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Revolving Credit Lender shall be required to fund, whether as a Revolving Credit Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such drawing except as otherwise provided in Section 2.14. Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, and the Administrative Agent’s right to receive the same for the account of the Issuing Bank, shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Revolving Credit Borrowers or any other Loan Party, (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section 7.01.77.07 or 7.01.87.08, (iv) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or (v) the delivery of Cash Collateral. Each such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.

2.05.5.   Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligations Are Absolute. The Revolving Credit Borrowers’ joint and several reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Revolving Credit Borrowers may have or have had against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any of the Lenders, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Revolving Credit Borrowers agree and acknowledge that none of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Lenders shall be responsible for, nor shall the Revolving Credit Borrowers’ duties and obligations hereunder under the Credit Documents be affected by, among other things (a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any documents or of any endorsements thereon presented in connection with any draft upon a Letter of Credit, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, (b) any dispute between or among any Revolving Credit Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, or (c) any claims whatsoever of the Revolving Credit Borrowers against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any of the Lenders shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with the issuance, administration, or payment of any drafts presented against any Letter of Credit. The Revolving Credit Borrowers agree and acknowledge that any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Revolving Credit Lenders under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents shall be binding on the Revolving Credit Borrowers and shall not result in any liability of any of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Revolving Credit Lenders to the Borrowers, absent gross negligence or willful misconduct. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

2.05.7. Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the Revolving Credit Borrowers shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Revolving Credit Borrowers reimburse such L/C Disbursement at the Adjusted Base Rate then applicable to Revolving Credit Loans; provided that the Default Rate shall apply during any continuing Event of Default. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.05.3 to purchase a participation from the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such purchasing Lender to the extent of such payment.

2.05.8. Cash Collateralization. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent (a) if the Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in Reimbursement Obligation (unless such Reimbursement Obligation has been reimbursed by the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan in accordance with Section 2.05.4), or (b) if, as of the L/C Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit for any reason remains outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, or (c) a continuing Event of Default exists and the Loans have been accelerated and have become due and payable in accordance with Section 8.01 of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall immediately Cash Collateralize all then outstanding L/C Obligations (in an amount determined as of the date of such Reimbursement Obligation or the L/C Expiration Date or the date of acceleration of the Loans, as the case may be), but an amount not less than 110% of the outstanding L/C Obligations, unless otherwise agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Required Revolving Credit Lenders.

Each Revolving Credit Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the accounts of other Loan Parties and Subsidiaries of such Borrower and any other Loan Party inures to the benefit of such Borrower, and that its business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such other Loan Parties and Subsidiaries.

Section 2.06. [Reserved].

 

Section 2.07. Interest Terms Applicable To The Loans. Interest shall accrue upon the unpaid principal balances of the Loans until the Loans have been repaid in full at the rate or rates described below in this Section 2.07. The Borrowers promise to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders in each Class all accrued interest owing in respect of such Class of Loans in arrears on the applicable Interest Payment Dates.

2.07.1. Adjusted Base Rate. Swingline Loans advanced and outstanding shall bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate. Absent a timely election by the Borrower Representative of a SOFR Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.07.2 of this Agreement, the unpaid balances of the Floor Plan Loans (including M&T Advances) and Revolving Credit Loans, including any balances of any Adjusted SOFR Rate Borrowings for which the applicable Interest Period has expired without an effective continuation, shall be deemed automatically to bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate. Changes in the Adjusted Base Rate shall be made when and as changes in the Base Rate occur. Each election by the Borrower Representative of an Adjusted Base Rate Borrowing shall be in the Minimum Borrowing Amount, or any multiple thereof. Payments on account of Adjusted Base Rate Borrowings shall be due and payable in arrears monthly on the Interest Payment Date in each consecutive month.

2.07.2. SOFR Borrowing Option. Subject to the terms of this Section, interest may accrue at the election of the Borrower Representative (a) with respect to Revolving Credit Loans, at the Adjusted SOFR Rate for Interest Periods and on portions of the unpaid principal balances of the Revolving Credit Loans, as selected by the Borrower Representative and (b) with respect to Floor Plan Loans, at the Adjusted Daily SOFR Rate on the principal balances outstanding of the Floor Plan Loans. With respect to the Revolving Credit Loans, the Borrowers shall have the option to elect a series of consecutive Interest Periods applicable to portions of the unpaid principal balances of Revolving Credit Loans to be designated at the time of an initial election for SOFR Borrowings; provided that SOFR shall be redetermined on the terms set forth in this Agreement for each Interest Period and interest payments shall be made at the end of each Interest Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the SOFR Borrowing option shall not be available for Swingline Loans.

 

(a)

Interest Payment and Computation.

Interest shall accrue from and including the first day of each Interest Period selected by the Borrower Representative to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the Adjusted SOFR Rate determined as applicable to such Interest Period upon the amount of the unpaid principal balances of the Revolving Credit Loans. SOFR Rate Borrowings shall be due and payable in arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date.

(b)

Interest Payment and Computation (Floor Plan Loans).

Subject to the last sentence of this clause (b) and to the operation and effect of Sections 2.07.4 and 2.07.5 hereof, the principal balance of any advanced and outstanding Floor Plan Loans shall bear interest at the Adjusted Daily SOFR Rate. With respect to the Floor Plan Loans, there shall only be one (1) applicable interest rate in effect for all of the Floor Plan Loans at any time and each interest rate election shall apply to the entire aggregate unpaid principal balances of the Floor Plan Loans. Payments on account of interest applicable to Floor Plan Loans shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to outstanding balances of such Loans accruing or having accrued interest at the Adjusted Daily SOFR Rate and balances of such Loans accruing or having accrued interest at the Adjusted Base Rate, in such order or proportion as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, shall determine. Adjusted Daily SOFR Borrowings on account of Floor Plan Loans shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the Interest Payment Date in each consecutive month.

(c) Continuation and Conversion. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Borrower Representative shall have the option to (a) convert at any time, subject to the notice requirements herein, all or any portion of any outstanding Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) in a principal amount equal to $2,000,000.00 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof (or such lesser amount as shall represent all of the Base Rate Loans then outstanding) into one or more SOFR Rate Loans and (b) upon the expiration of any Interest Period therefor, (i) convert all or any part of any outstanding SOFR Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $1,000,000.00 or a whole multiple of $500,000.00 in excess thereof (or such lesser amount as shall represent all of the SOFR Rate Loans then outstanding) into Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) or (ii) continue any SOFR Rate Loans as SOFR Rate Loans, provided that, unless notice is otherwise given by the Borrower Representative to convert or continue any SOFR Rate Loans, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of such SOFR Rate Loans, such SOFR Rate Loans shall automatically continue as SOFR Rate Loans having the same Interest Period as such expiring Interest Period. Whenever the Borrower Representative desires to convert or continue Loans as provided above (other than an automatic continuation of a SOFR Rate Loan as provided in clause (b)(ii) above), the Borrower Representative shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior written notice in the form attached as Exhibit I (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) not later than 11:00 a.m. three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is to be effective specifying (A) the Loans to be converted or continued, and, in the case of any SOFR Rate Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the Interest Period therefor, (B) the effective date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the principal amount of such Loans to be converted or continued, and (D) in the case of any SOFR Rate Loans, the Interest Period to be applicable to such converted or continued SOFR Rate Loan. If the Borrower Representative fails to deliver a timely Notice of Conversion/Continuation with respect to a SOFR Rate Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such SOFR Rate Loan is repaid as provided herein, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have selected that such SOFR Rate Loan shall automatically be continued as SOFR Rate Loans having the same Interest Period as such expiring Interest Period. If the Borrower Representative requests a conversion to, or continuation of, a SOFR Rate Loan, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Swingline Loan may not be converted to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the affected Lenders of such Notice of Conversion/Continuation.

(d) Manner of Payment. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each payment by a Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts (including the Reimbursement Obligation) payable to the Lenders under this Agreement shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the account of the Lenders entitled to such payment in Dollars, and shall be made without any setoff, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever. Any payment received after 1:00 p.m. shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day for all purposes. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of each such payment, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each such Lender at its address for notices set forth herein its Pro Rata Share in respect of the relevant facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment and shall wire advice of the amount of such credit to each Lender. Each payment to the Administrative Agent on account of the principal of or interest on the Swingline Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts payable to the Swingline Lender shall be made in like manner, but for the account of the Swingline Lender. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of any Issuing Bank’s fees shall be made in like manner, but for the account of such Issuing Bank. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent’s fees or expenses shall be made for the account of the Administrative Agent and any amount payable to any Lender under Sections 2.07.3, 2.10, 2.11 or 10.08 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender. Subject to the definitions of Interest Period and Interest Payment Date, if any payment under this Agreement shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing any interest if payable along with such payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there exists a Defaulting Lender each payment by the Borrowers to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.14.1(b).

 

2.07.3. Breakage Costs. The Borrowers jointly and severally promise to compensate the Lenders from time to time, upon demand from any Lender through the Administrative Agent, for all losses, expenses, lost earnings, costs and liabilities (including all interest paid to lenders of funds borrowed by the Lenders to carry SOFR Borrowings) which any of the Lenders sustains if: (1) any repayment or prepayment of any SOFR Borrowings (including any payment resulting from the acceleration of the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or from an assignment required by Section 2.11 of this Agreement) or any conversion of SOFR Borrowings for any reason occurs on a date which is not a Business Day and, with respect to any SOFR Borrowing on account of a Revolving Credit Loan is not the last day of an Interest Period; or (2) any failure by the Borrowers to borrow a SOFR Borrowing or convert an Adjusted Base Rate Borrowing to a SOFR Borrowing on the date for such borrowing or conversion specified in the relevant notice of election given by the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.07.4. Illegality. If the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders shall determine that the introduction of any law (statutory or common), treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or determination of an arbitrator or of a governmental authority or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful for any of the Lenders to make Loans at the SOFR Rate and/or the Daily SOFR Rate, then, on notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent may suspend the making of Loans at the SOFR Rate and the Daily SOFR Rate until the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Borrower Representative that the circumstances giving rise to such determination shall no longer exist. If the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any Loans at the SOFR Rate and/or the Daily SOFR Rate, the Borrowers shall immediately convert all outstanding SOFR Rate Borrowings and/or Adjusted Daily SOFR Borrowings, as applicable, to Adjusted Base Rate Borrowings or pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders the aggregate principal amount of all affected Loans then outstanding at the SOFR Rate or Daily SOFR Rate, together with accrued interest and related Credit Party Expenses.

2.07.5. Termination Of Right To Elect SOFR Borrowings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, and without limiting any other rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Required Lenders during any continuing Default or Event of Default may suspend the right of the Borrowers to elect any new SOFR Borrowing or to convert any Adjusted Base Rate Borrowing into a SOFR Borrowing, to permit any SOFR Borrowing to be renewed as a SOFR Borrowing, or to permit any SOFR Borrowing at the Adjusted Daily SOFR Rate to continue as a SOFR Borrowing, in which case, all SOFR Borrowings, other than SOFR Borrowings at the Adjusted Daily SOFR Rate, shall be converted on the last days of the respective Interest Periods therefor or continued, as the case may be, as Adjusted Base Rate Borrowings, and all SOFR Borrowings at the Adjusted Daily SOFR Rate shall be converted to Adjusted Base Rate Borrowings on the date selected by the Required Lenders.

2.07.6. Calculation Of Interest. Interest shall be calculated upon Adjusted Base Rate Borrowings on the basis of a 365 or 366 days per year factor applied to the actual days on which there exists an unpaid balance of the Adjusted Base Rate Borrowings. Interest shall be calculated upon SOFR Borrowing on the basis of a 360 day per year factor applied to the actual days on which there exists an unpaid balance of the SOFR Borrowing.

 

 

2.07.7.

Default Interest.

 

(a) During the existence an Event of Default under Sections 7.01.1, 7.01.7 or 7.01.87.01, 7.07 or 7.08, automatically and without the requirement of any notice, and at the request of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders during the existence of any other Event of Default, the principal amount of all Loans outstanding, Reimbursement Obligations and all fees and other Obligations owed hereunder, including, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loans, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Debtor Relief Laws or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable on demand at the applicable Default Rate; provided, in the case of Loans accruing interest at the SOFR Rate (other than Floor Plan Loans), upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such Loans shall thereupon accrue interest at the Base Rate and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at the Default Rate. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.07.7 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender. Imposition of the Default Rate may, at the election of the Required Lenders, be applied retroactively to the date of the occurrence of the Event of Default.

(b)   Without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the Credit Parties by this Agreement or applicable Laws, accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

2.07.8. Maximum Rate Of Interest. Any provision contained in the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Lenders shall not be entitled to receive or collect, nor shall the Borrowers be obligated to pay, interest, fees, or charges thereunder in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted by any applicable Law, and if any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Credit Documents is construed or held by any court of law or Governmental Authority having jurisdiction to permit or require the charging, collection or payment of any amount of interest in excess of that permitted by such Laws, the provisions of this Section shall control and shall override any contrary or inconsistent provision. The intention of the parties is to at all times conform strictly with all applicable usury requirements and other Laws limiting the maximum rates of interest which may be lawfully charged upon the Loans. The interest to be paid pursuant to the Notes shall be held subject to reduction to the amount allowed under said usury or other Laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction, and any sums of money paid in excess of the interest rate allowed by applicable Law shall be applied in reduction of the principal amount owing pursuant to the Notes.

 

2.07.9. Late Payment Charges. Any payment of principal, interest or fees due upon any of the Loans (including any final payment) which is received by the Administrative Agent more than fifteen (15) calendar days after its due date shall incur a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of the payment due, which charge shall be immediately due and payable. The existence of the right by the Lenders to receive a late payment charge shall not be deemed to constitute a grace period or provide any right to the Borrowers to make a payment other than on such payment’s scheduled due date.

2.07.10.

Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.

 

 

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment or further action or consent of any other party hereto or to any other Credit Document, and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, the Administrative Agent may unilaterally amend the terms of this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, with any such amendment to become effective as soon as practicable for the Administrative Agent and upon notice to the Borrower, without any further action or consent of the Borrower. No replacement of the Term SOFR Reference Rate (or the then-current Benchmark) with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to clause (y) above will occur prior to the earlier of (i) the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date and (ii) if such Benchmark Transition Event is a public statement or publication of information of a prospective event, the 180th day prior to the expected date of such event as of such public statement or publication of information (or if the expected date of such prospective event is fewer than 180 days after such statement or publication, the date of such statement or publication). Borrower shall pay reasonable out-of-pocket costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any amendment and related actions, negotiation, documentation or enforcement of the terms hereof or any related matters contemplated in this Section 2.07.10.

 

 

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation or administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any party hereto for any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes it makes in good faith.

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment, or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date, and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto absent manifest error, and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or other Credit Document (except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section) and shall not be a basis of any claim of liability of any kind or nature by any party hereto, all such claims being hereby waived individually by each party hereto.

(d) Unavailability of Tenor or Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or nonrepresentative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period and until a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with this Section 2.07.10, the Borrower Representative may revoke any pending request for a SOFR Rate Loan, or conversion to, or continuation of, SOFR Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, (i) the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans and (ii) any outstanding affected SOFR Rate Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans immediately. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

2.07.11. Adjusted Term SOFR Conforming Changes. In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Term SOFR Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any amendments implementing such Term SOFR Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of the Borrowers or any other party hereto. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Representative of the effectiveness of any Term SOFR Conforming Changes.

 

2.07.12. Changed Circumstances. Subject Section 2.07.10, in connection with any SOFR Rate Loan, a request therefor, a conversion to or a continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that if Term SOFR is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR and the applicable Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Rate Loan on or prior to the first day of such Interest Period, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that deposits are not being offered to banks in the London or other applicable offshore interbank market for the applicable Interest Period, or (iii) the Required Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that if Term SOFR is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, Term SOFR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during the applicable Interest Period and, in such case, the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower Representative, any obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Rate Loans, and any right of the Borrower Representative to convert any Loan or continue any Loan as an SOFR Rate Loan, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (iii), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower Representative may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Rate Loans or affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, in the case of any request for a borrowing of an affected SOFR Rate Loan, the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected SOFR Rate Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower Representative shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.07.3.

Section 2.08. Pro Rata Treatment And Payments.

2.08.1. Distribution Of Payments To Lenders. Except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary by the terms of this Agreement, all payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers in respect of a Class hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Lenders in such Class at the Administrative Agent’s offices in Buffalo, New York in Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender in such Class by wire transfer such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s pro rata share of each of such payments in like funds as received for such Class. The Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payments on the applicable date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or to the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payments, then each of the 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 the Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds 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 Rate or a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry customs and rules on interbank compensation.

 

2.08.2. Funding Of Loans. The Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender will fund timely its pro rata portion of each borrowing requested by the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and that the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers 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 Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (a) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate or a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry customs and rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (b) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Adjusted Base Rate Borrowings. If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such share included in the subject borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

 

2.08.3. Ratable Sharing. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each Borrowing from the Revolving Credit Lenders under Section 2.03 shall be made from the Revolving Credit Lenders, each payment of the fees under Section 2.03.5 shall be made for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments under Section 2.03.6 shall be applied to the respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Credit Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Credit Loans shall be made for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans held by them, provided that, subject to Section 2.14, if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Revolving Credit Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans shall not be held by the Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at the time such Revolving Credit Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans being held by the Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with such respective Revolving Credit Commitments; (c) each Borrowing from the Floor Plan Lenders under Sections 2.01 shall be made from the Floor Plan Lenders and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Floor Plan Commitments shall be applied to the respective Floor Plan Commitments of the Floor Plan Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Floor Plan Commitments; (d) each payment or prepayment of principal of any Floor Plan Loans shall be made for the account of the Floor Plan Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of Floor Plan Loans held by them; (e) each payment of interest on any Floor Plan Loans shall be made for the account of the Floor Plan Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on Floor Plan Loans, then due and payable to the respective Floor Plan Lenders; (f) the conversion and continuation of Revolving Credit Loans (other than conversions provided for by Sections 2.07.4) shall be made pro rata among the Revolving Credit Lenders, according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Credit Loans, and the then current Interest Period for each Lender’s portion of each such Loan of such Type and Class shall be coterminous; (g) the Revolving Credit Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swingline Loans under Section 2.04, shall be in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages for Revolving Credit Commitments; and (i) the Revolving Credit Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.05, shall be in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages for Revolving Credit Commitments. All payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts in respect of the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender only (except to the extent any Lender shall have acquired a participating interest in any such Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.04.1(d), in which case such payments shall be pro rata in accordance with such participating interests).

 

 

2.08.4. Setoffs, Counterclaims, Other Payments. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swingline Loans held by it resulting in such Lender receiving payment greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value in Dollars) participations in the Loans and participations in the L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, 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 other amounts owing them, 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; and

 

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (B) 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 L/C Obligations or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiaries thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.09. Application Of Payments. Except as expressly required to the contrary by the terms of this Agreement, all payments received upon the Loans may be applied first to Credit Party Expenses, next to late payment charges, then to accrued interest and the unpaid principal balances of the Loans, or in such other order as elected by the Required Lenders.

 

Section 2.10. Increased Costs.

 

2.10.1. Increased Costs Generally. If any Change In Law shall:

(a) 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 reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted SOFR Rate) or the Issuing Bank;

(b) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (iii) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

 

(c) 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 any SOFR Borrowing made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Bank, or such other Recipient of making, converting to or continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Bank, or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the Issuing Bank, or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon the request of such Lender, the Issuing Bank, or such other Recipient, the Borrowers agree to pay to such Lender, the Issuing Bank, or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Issuing Bank, or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

2.10.2. Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, 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, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans 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 ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers agree to 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.

2.10.3. Certificate for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth 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 this Section 2.10 and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers promise to 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.

2.10.4. Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 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 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than twelve (12) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers 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 (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the twelve (12) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

 

Section 2.11. Taxes.

2.11.1.   Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA.

2.11.2. Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Credit Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

2.11.3. Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

2.11.4. Indemnification. The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.11.5. Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (a) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (b) any Taxes attributable to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.03 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (c) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit 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. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.11.5.

2.11.6. Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, such Loan Party 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.

 

2.11.7.

Status of Lenders.

(a) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrowers are U.S. Borrowers,

(i)   any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from

U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(ii) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Credit Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of,

U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(B)

executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrowers within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

 

(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 or Exhibit J-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(iii) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(iv) if a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. 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 the Borrowers 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 the Borrowers 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 clause (iv), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

2.11.8. Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to Section 2.11 of this Agreement (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.11), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.11.8 (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.11.8, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.11.8 the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amount with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

 

2.11.9. Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.

Section 2.12. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

2.12.1. Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.10, or requires the Borrowers to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrowers) 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 2.10 or 2.11, 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 agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

2.12.2. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.10, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.12.1, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the 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, and consents required by, Section 10.02), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.10 or Section 2.11) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(a) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the administrative fee (if any) specified in Section 10.02;

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.07.3) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

 

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d)

such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and

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

Section 2.13. Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (a) if the Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in a Reimbursement Obligation, or (b) if, as of the L/C Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrowers shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations.

Section 2.14. Defaulting Lenders.

2.14.1. Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws:

(a) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders, Required Revolving Credit Lenders and Required Floor Plan Lenders.

(b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 8 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.07 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank to M&T Bank as the provider of the M&T Advances hereunder or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure or M&T Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.14; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (i) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (ii) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement and future M&T Advances, in accordance with Section 2.13; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to M&T Bank as the provider of the M&T Advances hereunder, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by M&T Bank as the provider of the M&T Advances hereunder, any Lender, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in M&T Advances, L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the Applicable Credit Facility without giving effect to Section 2.14.1(d). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.14.1(e) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

 

(c)

Certain Fees.

(i) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive a Floor Plan Unused Commitment Fee or a Revolving Credit Unused Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(ii) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the limited extent allocable to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.14.1(e).

(iii) With respect to any Floor Plan Unused Commitment Fee, Revolving Credit Unused Commitment Fee, or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Borrowers shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) below, (y) pay to the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fees.

(d) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in (a) M&T Advances shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Floor Plan Loan Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Floor Plan Loan Commitments) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Floor Plan Loan of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Floor Plan Loan Commitment and (b) in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages, determined without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any such Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s increased exposure following such reallocation. Operation of the allocations provided in Section 2.14 above shall not be deemed to result in a default of any Borrower’s obligations to a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

(e) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans and M&T Advances.

 

(i) If the reallocation described in the immediately preceding subsection (d) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers of the applicable Class shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under law, (I) in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in this subsection and (II) in respect of the Floor Plan Facility, prepay the M&T Advances in an amount equal to M&T Bank’s Fronting Exposure as the lender of M&T Advances.

 

(ii) At any time that there shall exist a Revolving Credit Lender that is a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Revolving Credit Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time.

(iii) All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) provided under Section 2.14 shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts maintained at M&T Bank. The Revolving Credit Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Liabilities, to be applied pursuant to the immediately following clause (iv). The Floor Plan Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and M&T Bank as the lender of M&T Advances, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of M&T Advances, to be applied pursuant to the immediately following clause (iv). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral in the Cash Collateral Account is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, M&T Bank as lender of M&T Advances and the Issuing Bank as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time and of M&T Bank as lender of M&T Advances, the Revolving Credit Borrowers and/or Floor Plan Borrowers, as applicable, will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.14 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Liabilities (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.14 in respect of M&T Advances shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of M&T Advances (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

 

 

(v)   Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection following (x) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Revolving Credit Lender), or (y) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the immediately preceding subsection (b), the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Bank may (but shall not be obligated to) agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by a Revolving Credit Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Credit Documents. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce M&T Bank’s Fronting Exposure in respect of M&T Advances shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection following (x) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Floor Plan Lender), or (y) the determination by the Administrative Agent and M&T Bank as the lender of M&T Advances, that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the immediately preceding subsection (b), the Person providing Cash Collateral and M&T Bank as the lender of M&T Advances, may (but shall not be obligated to) agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by a Floor Plan Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Credit Documents.

2.14.2. Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, Swingline Lender and M&T Advance Lender as the provider of the M&T Advances each agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause, as applicable, (i) the M&T Advances and funded and unfunded participations in M&T Advances to be held pro rata by the Floor Plan Lenders in accordance with their respective Floor Plan Commitment Percentages (determined without giving effect to Section 2.14.1(d)), (ii) the funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (determined without giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection Section 2.14.1(d)) and (iii) the Loans of each Class to be held by the Lenders of such Class pro rata as if there had been no Defaulting Lenders of such Class, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; 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; and 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 ▇▇▇▇▇▇ having been a Defaulting Lender.

2.14.3. New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit/M&T Advances. Without limiting the discretion of the M&T Advance Lender whether or not to make a M&T Advance (as set forth in Section 2.02.1), so long as any Lender (other than M&T Advance Lender or any of its Affiliates) under the Floor Plan Facility is a Defaulting Lender, M&T Advance Lender shall not be required to fund any M&T Advance. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (a) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (b) the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

 

Section 2.15. Fees. The Borrowers promise to pay (a) to M&T Bank for M&T Bank’s own account such fees as are required by the terms of the Fee Letter and (b) to M&T Bank for the ratable benefit of the Lenders the Deferred Fee (as defined in the Third Amendment).

 

Section 2.16. Payments. All payments received by the Credit Parties which are to be applied to reduce the Obligations shall be provisional and shall not be considered final unless and until such payment is not subject to avoidance under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code, as amended, including Sections 547 and 550, or any other Debtor Relief Law. If any payment is avoided or set aside under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code, including Sections 547 and 550 thereof, or any other Debtor Relief Law, the payment shall be considered not to have been made for all purposes of this Agreement and the Credit Parties shall adjust their respective records to reflect the fact that the avoided payment was not made and has not been credited against the Obligations.

Section 2.17. Advancements. If the Borrowers or any other Loan Party fail to perform any of their respective agreements or covenants contained in the Credit Documents or if the Borrowers or any other Loan Party fails to protect or preserve the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations or the status and priority of the Liens of the Credit Parties in the Collateral or in any other security for the Obligations, the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders may make advances to perform the same on behalf of the Borrowers or other Loan Party to protect or preserve the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations or the status and priority of the Liens of the Credit Parties in the Collateral or in any other security for the Obligations, and all sums so advanced shall immediately upon such advance become secured by the Liens granted in the Credit Documents and any other security for the Obligations, and shall become part of the principal amount owed to the Lenders with interest to be assessed at the Default Rate. The Borrowers promise to repay on demand all sums so advanced on the Borrowers’ behalf, plus all expenses or costs incurred by the Administrative Agent, on account of the Lenders, including reasonable legal fees, with interest thereon. The provisions of this Section shall not be construed to prevent the institution of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. The authorization contained in this Section is not intended to impose any duty or obligation on the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party to perform any action or make any advancement on behalf of the Borrowers and is intended to be for the sole benefit and protection of the Credit Parties. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall be required to fund any advances under this Section if such advance would cause the aggregate outstanding exposure of such Lender to exceed such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Commitment.

Section 2.18. Co-Borrower Provisions.

2.18.1. Borrower Representative. To facilitate administration of the Loans, the Borrower Representative (a) is designated and appointed by each of the other Borrowers as its representative and agent on its behalf (the “Borrower Representative”) and (ii) accepts such appointment as the Borrower Representative, in each case and with full power and authority to issue, execute, deliver and acknowledge as appropriate, Loan Requests, notices of election and make the interest rate elections set forth therein, and certificates including Compliance Certificates, and to give instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, give and receive all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents and take all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or Borrowers under the Credit Documents. The Administrative Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Credit Document from the Borrower Representative as a notice or communication from all Borrowers. Each warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on behalf of any Borrower by the Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower. This power-of-attorney is coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked, modified or amended without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders. The Administrative Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Credit Document from the Borrower Representative as a notice or communication from all Borrowers. Each warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on behalf of a Borrower by the Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower.

 

2.18.2. Subordination. Each Borrower hereby subordinates all Intercompany Indebtedness that it may have from or against any other Borrower or other Loan Party, and any successor or assign of any other Borrower or other Loan Party, including, without limitation, any trustee, receiver or debtor-in-possession, howsoever arising, due or owing and whether heretofore, now or hereafter existing, to all of the Obligations of the other Borrower or the other Loan Parties owed to the Credit Parties.

2.18.3. Postponement of Subrogation. Until all of the Obligations are paid in full, no Borrower shall have any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity whatsoever, nor any right of recourse to security for any of the Obligations, and nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of a Borrower hereunder, until the full, final and absolute payment and performance of all of the Obligations at any time after all Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement are terminated. All present and future debts and obligations of each Borrower to any other Loan Party are hereby waived and postponed in favor of and subordinated to the full payment and performance of all present and future Obligations.

2.18.4. No Discharge.

(b) Revolving Credit Borrowers. Each Revolving Credit Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable as a primary obligor, and not merely as surety, for any and all Revolving Credit Loans and Obligations under and in connection with the Revolving Credit Facility and now or hereafter owed to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank, and the Revolving Credit Lenders, in each case, whether voluntary or involuntary and however arising, whether direct or acquired by any Revolving Credit Lender by assignment or succession, whether due or not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined.

(c) Benefit to Each Borrower. Each Borrower represents and warrants to and covenants with the Lenders that (i) the Borrowers are engaged in operations that require financing on a joint basis and, accordingly, each Borrower will materially benefit, directly or indirectly, from the extension of the Loans by the Lenders; (ii) the Loans have been offered to the applicable Borrowers on the basis set forth in this Agreement and would not be available to the Borrowers on an individual basis without the credit support of the other Loan Parties on the terms and conditions stated herein; (iii) the benefits received by each Borrower are reasonably equivalent to the obligations undertaken by such Borrower and (iv) the delivery of funds to any Borrower in connection with the Loans under this Agreement shall constitute valuable consideration and reasonably equivalent value to all Borrowers.

 

(d) Cross-Guaranty. Each Borrower guarantees to the Credit Parties the payment in full of all of the Obligations owned by each of the other Borrowers and further guarantees the due performance by each of the other Borrowers of its respective duties and covenants made in favor of the Credit Parties in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents. Each Borrower agrees that neither this cross guaranty nor the joint and several liability of the Borrowers provided in this Agreement nor the Credit Parties’ liens and rights in any of the Collateral shall be impaired or affected by any modification, supplement, extension or amendment of any contract or agreement to which the parties hereto may hereafter agree, nor by any modification, release or other alteration of any of the rights of the Credit Parties with respect to any of the Collateral, nor by any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence granted by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations, nor by any other agreements or arrangements whatever with the other Borrowers or with any other Person, each Borrower hereby waiving all notice of any such delay, extension, release, substitution, renewal, compromise or other indulgence, and hereby consenting to be bound thereby as fully and effectively as if it had expressly agreed thereto in advance. Except as may be expressly stated in this Agreement to the contrary, the liability of each Borrower hereunder is direct and unconditional as to all of the Obligations (except as may be expressly stated in this Agreement to the contrary), and may be enforced without requiring the Credit Parties first to resort to any other right, remedy or security.

2.18.7. Obligations Among Loan Parties. WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THE FOREGOING, EACH BORROWER SHALL BE JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY LIABLE TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ISSUING BANK, SWINGLINE LENDER, M&T ADVANCE LENDER AND THE OTHER LENDER PARTIES, IN EACH CASE, SOLELY TO THE EXTENT EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 2.18.6 AND, IN EACH SUCH CASE, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY ALLOCATION OF LOSSES AND LIABILITIES PURSUANT TO THIS SUBSECTION OR OTHERWISE AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, EACH BORROWER HAS EXPRESSLY ASSUMED THE RISK THAT SUCH BORROWER’S ACTUAL LIABILITY MAY EXCEED SUCH BORROWER’S PRO RATA SHARE AND THAT OVERPAYMENTS MAY NOT ACTUALLY BE REIMBURSED OR INDEMNIFIED. Subject to the foregoing, the Borrowers agree that the provisions of this subsection are intended to provide for an allocation of the Obligations among Borrowers of each Class. Accordingly, as among the Borrowers of each Class, if any Borrower under such Class (the “Overpaying Borrower”) pays (whether directly or by application of Collateral), or is otherwise held liable for, Loans and related Obligations in connection with Loans under the Applicable Credit Facility, in each case, in excess of its pro rata share for the Overpaying Borrower, the other Borrowers under such Applicable Credit Facility will pay the amount of such excess to the Overpaying Borrower and will indemnify the Overpaying Borrower for, from and against any claims, damages, loss or liability arising from or related to such overpayment. The value to each Borrower of the rights and claims against the other applicable Borrowers provided above under this Section 2.18.7 is intended, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, to prevent any Borrower from being rendered “insolvent” solely by virtue of the joint and several liability it may be subject to under Section 2.18.7. The rights and obligations among Borrowers pursuant to this subsection shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations.

Section 2.19. Swap Obligations; Keepwell. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, Swap Obligations of any Loan Party that is not an Eligible Contract Participant shall not include any Excluded Swap Liabilities; provided, however, to the extent that a Loan Party is an Eligible Contract Participant, such Loan Party (in addition to its other Obligations and agreements hereunder), hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party in respect of the Swap Obligations. The obligations of each Loan Party, to the extent that it is an Eligible Contract Participant, under this Section 2.19 shall remain in full force and effect until indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Each Loan Party , to the extent that such Loan Party is an Eligible Contract Participant, intends that this Section 2.19 constitute, and this Section 2.19 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the CEA.

 

Section 2.20. Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)

the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b)

the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)

a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii)

a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; or

(iii)

the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

Section 2.21. Reserves. The Administrative Agent may modify eligibility standards and establish and modify Reserves against the Borrowing Base, acting in its Permitted Discretion and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ (or three (3) Business Days, if such modification or Reserve is imposed to address information reflected in a Borrowing Base Certificate delivered in accordance with Section 4.02 in connection with a funding of Revolving Credit Loans, prior to the applicable Borrowing Date applicable to such Loan) prior written notice to the Borrower Representative. In no event shall Reserves or adjustments to eligibility criteria duplicate Reserves or adjustments already accounted for in determining eligibility criteria under the definitions of Eligible Accounts, Eligible Contracts In Transit, Eligible Equipment, and Eligible Inventory. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Reserve or eligibility criteria established or modified by the Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to circumstances, conditions, events or contingencies which are the basis for such Reserve, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in its Permitted Discretion; provided that circumstances, conditions, events or contingencies known to the Administrative Agent as of the Closing Date shall not be the basis for any such establishment or modification after the Closing Date unless such Reserves or eligibility criteria are in categories or of the type set forth as a line item on the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered on the Closing Date or relate to changes in law coming into force after the Closing Date.

RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF CREDIT PARTIES ON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof:

Section 8.01. Credit Parties’ Specific Rights And Remedies. In addition to all other rights and remedies provided by applicable Laws and the terms of the Credit Documents, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders (a) declare the Commitments of each Lender to advance proceeds of the Loans and any obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue any Letters of Credit to be terminated, (b) accelerate and call immediately due and payable all or any part of the Obligations, (c) require the Loan Parties to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations and the M&T Advances, (d) seek specific performance or injunctive relief to enforce performance of the undertakings, duties, and agreements provided in the Credit Documents, whether or not a remedy at Law exists or is adequate, (e) exercise any rights of a secured creditor under applicable Laws against the Collateral, including (i) the right to take possession of the Collateral without the use of judicial process or hearing of any kind, (ii) the right to require the Loan Parties to assemble the Collateral at such place as the Administrative Agent may specify, and (iii) the right to sell the Collateral, in whole or in part, at either private or public sale, and (f) seek the appointment of a receiver for any or all of the Loan Parties and/or the assets of any or all of the Loan Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, the availability and exercise of default remedies and rights under any Swap Agreements shall be governed by the default provisions of such Swap Agreement.

Section 8.02. Automatic Acceleration. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default as described in Sections 7.07 or 7.08 of this Agreement, the Commitments shall automatically terminate, the Obligations shall be automatically accelerated and due and payable without any notice, demand or action of any type on the part of the Credit Parties, the obligations of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit shall be automatically terminated, and the Loan Parties shall be automatically required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations and M&T Advances.

Section 8.03. Consent To Appointment Of Receiver. Each Borrower irrevocably consents to the appointment of a receiver upon the request of the Administrative Agent during any continuing Event of Default for it and for any or all of its business affairs, business operations, and assets, which receiver shall be authorized and deemed empowered to have and exercise the broadest powers permitted or available under applicable Laws to operate, manage, conserve, liquidate and sell any or all of its assets; provided, however, that such receiver shall have no authority without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders to release, discharge or otherwise negate any Liens securing the Obligations or to sell any assets of the Borrowers free and clear of any Liens securing the Obligations.

Section 8.04. Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents or otherwise under applicable Laws shall be cumulative and the exercise of any particular right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies in addition to, or as an alternative of, such right or remedy.

Section 8.05. Application Of Funds. After the exercise of remedies (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:

8.05.1. First, to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses, reimbursements, and other amounts (including Credit Party Expenses) payable to the Administrative Agent and to that part of the Obligations owed to any of the Credit Parties or to Affiliates of any of the Credit Parties for Bank Products, as described in item (d) in the definition of Obligations.

8.05.2. Second, to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank (including Credit Party Expenses), ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Bank.

8.05.3. Third, to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting Letter of Credit Fees, accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and on other Obligations, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Bank in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them.

 

 

8.05.4. Fourth, to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and payment or Cash Collateralization of any obligations under any Swap Agreements, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Bank and the respective Swap Providers in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them.

8.05.5. Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank, to Cash Collateralize that portion of the L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit.

8.05.6. Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrowers or as otherwise required by applicable Laws.

Amounts used to Cash Collateralize either the Swap Agreements pursuant to clause Fourth above, or the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit and payment obligations under the Swap Agreements as they occur. If any amounts remain on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have been fully drawn or have expired and all Swap Agreements have been terminated, such remaining amount shall be applied to other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

Section 8.06. Cash Collateral Account.

 

8.06.1. As collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all M&T Advances and the other Obligations, the Borrowers hereby pledge and grant to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders as provided herein, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to the Cash Collateral Account and the balances from time to time in the Cash Collateral Account (including the investments and reinvestments therein provided for below). The balances from time to time in the Cash Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any M&T Advances until applied by the Administrative Agent as provided herein or the L/C Obligations until applied by the Issuing Bank as provided herein. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, funds held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only as provided in this Section.

8.06.2. Amounts on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested by the Administrative Agent in such Cash Equivalents as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. All such investments and reinvestments shall be held in the name of and be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders; provided, that all earnings on such investments will be credited to and retained in the Cash Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Cash Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords other funds deposited with the Administrative Agent, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the Cash Collateral Account.

8.06.3. If an Event of Default exists at the time that a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrowers and the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to use the monies deposited in the Cash Collateral Account for the purposes of Cash Collateralizing Letters of Credit to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the payment made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing.

 

8.06.4. If an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may (and, if instructed by the Required Lenders, shall) in its (or their) discretion at any time and from time to time elect to liquidate any such investments and reinvestments and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations in accordance with Section 8.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to liquidate and release any such amounts if such liquidation or release would result in the amount available in the Cash Collateral Account to be less than the Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit and M&T Advances that remain outstanding.

8.06.5. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent from time to time such fees as the Administrative Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Administrative Agent’s administration of the Cash Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of funds therein.

8.06.6. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents or otherwise under applicable Laws shall be cumulative and the exercise of any particular right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies in addition to, or as an alternative of, such right or remedy.

It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Credit Document (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Laws. Instead, such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 9.02. Exculpatory Provisions.

9.02.1. No Fiduciary, Discretionary or Implied Duties.

(a) Shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) Shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law, or that may cause a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

 

(c) Shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

9.02.3. Knowledge.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (b) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (c) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (d) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (e) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.03. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 9.04. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.05. Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Credit Parties and to the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders (the “Resignation Effective Date”)), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that in no event shall any successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Bank directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above.

Section 9.06. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

 

Section 9.07. Administrative Agent May Hold Collateral For Lenders and Others.

Section 9.08. The Administrative Agent In Its Individual Capacity. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, including the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 9.09. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.01.15, 2.03.5, 2.05.9, 2.15 and 10.08) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.01.15, 2.03.5, 2.05.9, 2.15 and 10.08.

Section 9.10. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders and the Issuing Bank irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Credit Document (i) upon the final termination of all of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank shall have been made), (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Credit Document, (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders or (iv) that becomes Excluded Property or becomes the property of any Designated Real Estate Subsidiary; (b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Credit Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted under clause (h) of the definition of Permitted Encumbrance; and (c) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement if such Person becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

(a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Issuing Bank or Credit Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Credit Party such Lender or Issuing Bank (any such Lender, Issuing Bank, Credit Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank, Credit Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, Issuing Bank or Credit Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than three (3) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

 

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Payment Recipient hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment (a “Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(ii) such Payment Recipient shall promptly (and, in all events, within one (1) Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof and that it is so notifying the Administrative pursuant to this Section 9.13(b).

(c) Each Lender, Issuing Bank or Credit Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Credit Party under any Credit Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Credit Party from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s request to such Lender or Issuing Lender at any time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrowers) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment andAnd Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment andAnd Assumption by reference pursuant to the Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank. For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Bank and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received (or debited from the Cash Collateral Account) by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 9.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Credit Document.

Section 9.14. Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Each Lender agrees to indemnify each of the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) pro rata in accordance with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s respective Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Credit Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable reimbursement is sought) of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to the Administrative Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Credit Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Credit Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against either Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against either Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws. Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. If the Borrowers shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

10.02.2. Assignments By Lenders. Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of such Lender’s interests, rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans (including for purposes hereof, its participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans) provided that (a) an administrative fee in the amount of Five Thousand ($5,000.00) is paid to the Administrative Agent by either the assigning Lender or the Eligible Assignee in connection with the assignment, (b) if less than all of the assigning ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Commitments and Loans is to be assigned, the amount of the Commitments and Loans so assigned shall be for an aggregate principal amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), (c) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate amount of all of the assigning ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans and Commitments assigned (except this clause (c) shall not apply to the Swingline Lender’s rights and obligations in the Swingline Loans), (d) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver an Assignment And Assumption to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance, and (e) such Assignment And Assumption does not require the filing of a registration statement with the Securities And Exchange Commission or require the Loans or the Notes to be qualified in conformance with the requirements imposed by any blue sky Laws or other Laws of any state. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment And Assumption, which effective date is at least five (5) Business Days after the execution thereof, (a) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment And Assumption, have the rights, duties, and obligations of a Lender hereunder, and (b) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment And Assumption, be released from its duties and obligations under this Agreement but shall continue to be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights provided to the Lenders by the Borrowers pursuant to any of the Credit Documents with respect to facts, events, and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. By executing and delivering an Assignment And Assumption, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties to this Agreement the facts and matters as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may only assign their interests in the Commitments, the Loans, and Credit Documents to Eligible Assignees. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under the Credit Documents that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of the Credit Documents as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.03 of this Agreement. Except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed in writing by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or a release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ having been a Defaulting Lender.

10.02.3. Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.02.2, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (a) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (b) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its respective Commitment Percentages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Laws without compliance with the provisions of this Section, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

 

10.02.4. Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a limited fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain 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 amount of the Loans with respect to each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

10.02.5. Procedures for Implementing Lender Assignments. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of an Assignment And Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee together with any Note or Notes subject to such Assignment andAnd Assumption and any necessary consents to such Assignment andAnd Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment andAnd Assumption has been completed and is substantially in the form of Exhibit A (a) accept such Assignment And Assumption, (b) record the information contained therein in the Register, (c) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers, and (d) promptly deliver a copy of such Assignment And Assumption to the Borrowers. Within three (3) Business Days after receipt of notice, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for the surrendered Notes, new Notes to the order of such Eligible Assignee in amounts equal to the Commitments and Commitment Percentages assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment And Assumption and new Notes to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitments and Commitment Percentages retained by the assigning Lender. Such Notes shall be in the aggregate stated principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment And Assumption and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes delivered to the assigning Lender. The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrowers. The Borrowers expressly acknowledge that the cancellation of any Note or Notes and the replacement of any Note or Notes in accordance with this provision shall not constitute or be deemed to be a refinancing or a novation of any of the Obligations.

10.02.6. Cashless Settlements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such Lender.

 

Section 10.03. Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than to a Defaulting Lender, a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person), or the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or 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, and (c) 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. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 2.11.5. 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 Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.07.3, 2.10 and 2.11 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.11.7 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.11.7 shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.02 of this Agreement; provided that such Participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12 as if it were an assignee under Section 10.02 of this Agreement; and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.10 or 2.11, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrowers' request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.12.2 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.07 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.08 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a limited non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, 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 Credit 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 Credit 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.

Section 10.04. Pledges. 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 any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 10.05. Resignations Of Issuing Bank And Swingline Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary the Issuing Bank may upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank, and/or the Swingline Lender may upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and the Lenders, resign as Swingline Lender. After the resignation of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or to extend, renew or increase any existing Letter of Credit. After the resignation of the Swingline ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, the retiring Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to make any additional Swingline Loans.

 

Section 10.06. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Credit Document), each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that: (a)(i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrowers and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, on the other hand, (ii) the Borrowers have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent the Borrowers have deemed appropriate, and (iii) the Borrowers are capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Credit Documents; (b) (i) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger each 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 any of the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates, or any other Person and (ii) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger has any obligation to any of the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents; and (c) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrowers or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and the Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Section 10.07. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations of the Borrowers or any Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to such Lender or the Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such Obligations of the Borrowers or any Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or the Issuing Bank different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may otherwise have under applicable Laws. The Lender and the Issuing Bank each agree to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 10.08.1 or 10.08.2 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the aggregate Total Credit Exposure for all Lenders at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that with respect to such unpaid amounts owed to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender solely in its capacity as such, only the holders of Revolving Credit Loans shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts, such payment to be made severally among them based on each of such Lenders’ respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) provided, further, 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 (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Bank or any the Swingline Lender in connection with such capacity.

10.08.4. Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Borrower agrees that it will not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, 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 Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Section 10.08.2 above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

10.08.5. Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor.

10.08.6. Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 10.08 shall survive the termination of the Credit Documents and the payment of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 10.09. Course of Conduct. No failure or delay by any Credit Party in exercising any right or power under any Credit 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 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 Credit Parties under the Credit Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Credit Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless such waiver is made in accordance with Section 10.01 of this Agreement, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No waiver or indulgence by any of the Credit Parties shall constitute a future waiver of performance or exact performance by any of the Loan Parties. No amendment or waiver shall be effective unless in writing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the advance of proceeds of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or an Event of Default, regardless of whether any Credit Party may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time of such advance or issuance.

No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, 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 Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrowers or to any other Loan Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrowers’, any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Communications through the Platform. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Credit Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform.

 

Section 10.11. Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank agree to maintain the confidentiality of the “Information” (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) to federal and state bank examiners, and other regulatory officials and organizations having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, Issuing Bank and their Affiliates and Related Parties or its affiliates or (iii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrowers and their obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries or the credit facilities hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the credit facilities hereunder; (h) with the consent of the Borrowers; or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents, and the Commitments. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries relating to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 10.12. Counterparts And Integration. 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 and the other Credit Documents 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. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or a Lender Addendum by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be just as effective as the delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.13. Electronic Execution. The words “execution”, “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Credit Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state Laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Without limitation to the foregoing, signature pages to the Credit Documents delivered by electronic communication (including facsimile, e-mail and internet or intranet websites) shall be as effective, valid and enforceable and binding upon the indicated signatories as manually delivered signatures.

 

Section 10.14. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 10.15. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of any Credit Document and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Credit Party 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 the Credit Documents is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Revolving Credit Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.07.3, 2.09, 2.10.4, 2.10.5, Article 9 and Section 10.08 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 10.16. Time. Time is of the essence to this Agreement.

Section 10.17. Advertisement. The Borrowers authorize the Administrative Agent to publish the names of the Borrowers and the amount of the financing provided in accordance with this Agreement in any “tombstone” or comparable advertisement which the Administrative Agent elects to publish. The Borrowers further agree that the Administrative Agent may provide lending industry trade organizations with information necessary and customary (including, without limitation, the amount and type of facilities, the rates and counsel’s name) for inclusion in league table measurements after the Closing Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrowers consent to the disclosure by the Administrative Agent after the Closing Date of information relating to the Loans to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications, with such information to consist of deal terms consisting of (a) the Borrowers’ names, (b) principal loan amounts, (c) interest rates, (d) term lengths, (e) commitment fees and other fees to the Lenders in the syndicate, and (f) the identity of their attorneys and other information customarily found in such publications.

Section 10.18. Acknowledgments. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) it and each of the other Loan Parties has been advised and represented by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of each Credit Document, (b) no Credit Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to it or any other Loan Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and the relationship between the Credit Parties, on one hand, and the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith is solely that of creditors and debtors, and (c) no joint venture exists among any of the Credit Parties and the Borrowers or any of the other Loan Parties.

 

Section 10.19. Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any claims, disputes or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) arising out of or related to this Agreement or any other Credit Document (except as to any other Credit Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transaction contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the Governing State.

Section 10.20. Jurisdiction. Each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in Law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank, or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by ▇▇▇. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document against the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

Section 10.21. Venue. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents in any court referred to in Section 10.20. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

Section 10.22. Service Of Process. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.10. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

Section 10.23. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OBLIGATIONS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

 

Section 10.24. USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Credit Party that is subject to the USA Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the names and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Credit Party to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

Section 10.25. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Obligations or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Credit Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Credit Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Credit Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b) As used in this Section 10.25, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12

C.F.R. §252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C.

5390(c)(8)(D).
