Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Term Loan Facility
On December 15,
2014, Willbros Group, Inc. (the Company) entered into a new credit agreement dated as of December 15, 2014 (the 2014 Term Credit Agreement) among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, the lenders from
time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and KKR Credit Advisors (US) LLC, as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner. The 2014 Term Credit Agreement replaces the Companys existing six-year
$250 million term loan credit facility under its existing term loan credit agreement, dated as of August 7, 2013, among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the Existing Term Credit Agreement).
The 2014 Term Credit Agreement provides for a
$270 million term loan facility (the 2014 Term Loan Facility), which the Company drew in full on the effective date of the 2014 Term Credit Agreement. The borrower under the 2014 Term Credit Agreement is Willbros Group, Inc., with
all of its obligations guaranteed by its material U.S. subsidiaries, other than excluded subsidiaries. Obligations under the 2014 Term Loan Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in, among other things, the borrowers and
the guarantors equipment, subsidiary capital stock and intellectual property (the Term Loan Priority Collateral) and a second priority security interest in, among other things, the borrowers and the guarantors
inventory, accounts receivable, deposit accounts and similar assets.
The proceeds from the 2014 Term Loan Facility were used to repay all
indebtedness under the Existing Term Credit Agreement, including accrued interest and prepayment premiums, to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the refinancing and for working capital purposes.
The term loans are repayable in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate amount equal to 0.25 percent of the original amount of the 2014
Term Loan Facility. The balance of the term loans are repayable on December 15, 2019. The Company is permitted to make optional prepayments at any time, subject to a variable prepayment premium if the prepayment is made prior to
December 15, 2018. Mandatory prepayments of term loans are required from (i) 100 percent of the proceeds of the sale of assets constituting Term Loan Priority Collateral, subject to reinvestment provisions and certain exceptions and
thresholds, (ii) 100 percent of the net cash proceeds from issuances of debt by the Company and its subsidiaries, other than permitted indebtedness and (iii) 75 percent (with step-downs to 50 percent and 0 percent based on a leverage
ratio) of annual excess cash flow, provided that any voluntary prepayments of term loans will be credited against excess cash flow obligations. The first $125 million of mandatory prepayments of term loans using proceeds from the
sale of assets are subject to a prepayment premium of two percent (2.0%). Mandatory prepayments of excess cash flow are payable within five business days after annual financial statements are delivered to the administrative agent beginning with the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2015.
2
The term loans will bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate plus an applicable
margin, or the Eurodollar Rate plus an applicable margin. The Adjusted Base Rate is the greatest of (i) the rate announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as its prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5 percent,
(iii) the Eurodollar Rate applicable for a period of one month plus 1.0 percent and (iv) 2.25 percent. The Eurodollar Rate is the rate for Eurodollar deposits for a period equal to one, two, three or six months, as selected by the Company,
which in any case shall not be less than zero. The applicable margin for Adjusted Base Rate loans is 8.75 percent, and the applicable margin for Eurodollar loans is 9.75 percent.
The 2014 Term Credit Agreement includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, including:
|
|
|
Maintenance of a minimum interest coverage ratio; |
|
|
|
Maintenance of a maximum total leverage ratio; |
|
|
|
Limitations on liens and indebtedness; |
|
|
|
Limitations on dividends and other payments in respect of capital stock; |
|
|
|
Limitations on capital expenditures; |
|
|
|
Limitations on certain asset sales and dispositions; and |
|
|
|
Limitations on modifications of the documentation of the Companys asset based senior revolving credit facility. |
A default under the 2014 Term Credit Agreement may be triggered by events such as a failure to make payments when due under the 2014 Term
Credit Agreement, failure to comply with the covenants under the 2014 Term Credit Agreement, a failure to make payments when due in respect of, or a failure to perform obligations relating to, debt obligations in excess of $15 million, a change
in control of the Company and certain insolvency proceedings. A default under the 2014 Term Credit Agreement would permit the lenders to require immediate repayment of all principal, interest, fees and other amounts payable thereunder.
The above description is only a summary of certain provisions of the 2014 Term Credit Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the provisions of the 2014 Term Credit Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

First Amendment to Loan, Security and Guaranty Agreement dated as of August 30, 2013 and the Second Amendment to Loan, Security and Guaranty Agreement dated as of April 1, 2014, the Existing ABL Credit Agreement), pursuant to

amount not less than $2,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof; provided that a Eurodollar Borrowing that results from a Continuation of an outstanding Eurodollar Borrowing may be in an aggregate principal amount that
is equal to the aggregate principal amount of such outstanding Borrowing. At the time that each Base Rate Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in
excess thereof.
(ii) At no time shall there be more than ten (10) Interest Periods applicable to outstanding

continuing, or if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Lenders, has notified the Borrower of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other
Event of Default, then, in each such case, so long as such Event of Default is continuing, no outstanding Borrowing may be Converted to or Continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing.
40
(iv) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar
Borrowing under any Facility (A) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period
or (B) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Facility Lenders under such Facility that the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their
Loans included in such Eurodollar Borrowing for such Interest Period then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall give notice (which may be telephonic) thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders under such Facility as promptly as practicable and,
until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders under such Facility that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation and Conversion that requests the
Conversion of any Borrowing under such Facility to, or Continuation of any Borrowing under such Facility as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be Converted to or Continued as a Base Rate Borrowing, and
(y) any Notice of Borrowing requesting a Eurodollar Borrowing under such Facility shall be treated as a request for an Base Rate Borrowing.
(v) If in any Notice of Borrowing the Borrower shall fail to select a Type of Borrowing, then the requested Borrowing shall be
a Base Rate Borrowing. If in any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation or Conversion no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of
one months duration. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Notice of Conversion or Continuation with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as
provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be Continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period of one month.
(e) Notices Irrevocable. Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the
Borrower (unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees).
(f) Lender Obligations Several. The failure of any Lender to make the
Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be
made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.
(g) Funding by Lenders; Administrative Agents Reliance. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date (or in the case of Base Rate Loans, the proposed time) of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lenders
Applicable Percentage of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Applicable Percentage available in accordance with and at the time required in Section 2.02(b) and may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its Applicable Percentage of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree
to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available
41
funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at
(i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the requested Borrowing. If the Borrower 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 Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its
Applicable Percentage of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lenders Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the
Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this paragraph (g) shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error.
2.03 Evidence of Indebtedness; Notes. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from the Loans made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to
time hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (a) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period with respect thereto,
(b) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (c) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each
Lenders share thereof. The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to sentences above shall be conclusive evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded absent manifest error; provided,
however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms. Any
Lender may request that the Loans owing to such Lender be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender and its registered assigns. Thereafter, the Loans
evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 10.06) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to
Section 10.06, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced solely in the accounts of such Lender and the Administrative
Agent.
2.04 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees as separately agreed upon by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent in the Agent Fee Letter.
2.05 Repayment.
(a) Scheduled Amortizations.
(i) The Borrower hereby promises to repay (A) Tranche B Borrowings on the last day of each March, June, September and
December, beginning with March 31, 2015 and ending with the last such day to occur prior to the Tranche B
42
Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount for each such date (as such amount may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(ii)) equal to 0.25% of the aggregate original principal
amount of the Tranche B Borrowings and (B) Loans of any other Class established under Sections 2.17 and 2.18 in such amounts and on such date or dates as shall be specified in the definitive documentation establishing such Class
hereunder.
(ii) Any prepayment of a Borrowing of any Class made pursuant to Section 2.06(b) shall be applied
to the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Borrowings of such Class as directed by the Borrower. Any prepayment of a Borrowing made pursuant to Section 2.06(c) shall be applied (A) in the case of Tranche B Borrowings,
first, to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments thereof on each scheduled repayment date occurring within twelve (12) months after the date of such prepayment, in direct order of maturity, unless and until the repayments due on such
scheduled repayment dates have been discharged, and second, to subsequent scheduled repayments thereof on a ratable basis, provided that the Borrower may direct application of such prepayment to the subsequent scheduled repayments of
Tranche B Borrowings in any other manner that would not result in the remaining weighted average life to maturity of Tranche B Borrowings being less than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of Tranche B Borrowings that would have
resulted from the application of such prepayment in accordance with clause (A) above, and (B) in the case of Borrowings of any other Class established under Sections 2.17 and 2.18, as shall be specified in the definitive
documentation establishing such Class hereunder.
(iii) Each repayment of Borrowings of any Class made pursuant to
Section 2.05(a) shall be applied to such Borrowing or Borrowings of such Class as shall have been specified by the Borrower pursuant to a notice to the Administrative Agent. Each such repayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to
the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing.
(b) Repayment of Maturity. To the extent not previously repaid or prepaid, the Borrower
hereby promises to repay (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Tranche B Loans on the Tranche B Maturity Date and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans of any other Class established under Section 2.17 or
2.18 on the Maturity Date applicable thereto.
2.06 Prepayments.
(a) Right to Prepay. Subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement, including in this Section 2.06, the
Borrower may prepay any principal amount of any Loan.
(b) Optional. Subject to Section 2.06(f)(i) below, the Borrower
may elect to prepay, in whole or in part, any Borrowing after giving prior written notice of such election by (i) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days before such prepayment date, in the case of Eurodollar
Borrowings, and (ii) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), in the case of Base Rate Borrowings, in each case to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal
amount of such prepayment. If any such notice is given, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice
43
thereof to each Applicable Lender, and the Borrower shall prepay the Loans comprising such Borrowing in whole or ratably in part in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in
such notice; provided, however, that each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $2,500,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any notice given under this Section 2.06(b) may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative
Agent prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied and, if so revoked, no prepayment on account of such notice shall be required to be made by the Borrower hereunder.
(c) Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.
(i) Asset Dispositions; Event of Loss. Subject to Section 2.06(f)(ii) below:
(A) If the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall at any time or from time to time make an Asset Disposition or suffer an
Event of Loss, then (1) the Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such Asset Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries in
respect thereof) and (2) subject to paragraph (B) below, promptly upon receipt by the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries of the Net Proceeds of such Asset Disposition or such Event of Loss, the Borrower shall (except to the extent
(x) prior to the WAPCo Settlement Release Date, the Borrower has deposited all or any portion of such Net Proceeds in the WAPCo Settlement Account or (y) on and after the WAPCo Settlement Release Date, the Borrower has delivered a
Reinvestment Notice to the Administrative Agent with respect to all or a portion of such Net Proceeds) prepay the Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds (less any portion thereof applied as contemplated by
paragraph (B)(2) or (B)(3) below); provided, that, if on the Reinvestment Prepayment Date in respect of any Reinvestment Event the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount in respect of such Reinvestment Event shall exceed zero, the Borrower shall
prepay the Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Reinvestment Prepayment Amount.
(B) Notwithstanding
anything in paragraph (A) above to the contrary:
(1) The Net Proceeds received by the Borrower or any Subsidiary in
respect of any Asset Disposition of ABL Facility First Priority Collateral (or any assets of the Canadian Subsidiaries that are of the same type as the ABL Facility Priority Collateral), whether in the form of a direct sale, transfer or other
disposition of such ABL Facility First Priority Collateral (or such other assets) or a sale, transfer or other disposition of Equity Interests in any Subsidiary owning such ABL Facility First Priority Collateral (or such other assets), or any Event
of Loss involving any ABL Facility First Priority Collateral (or such other
44
assets), shall not, unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower, solely to the extent such Net Proceeds are attributable to such ABL Facility First Priority Collateral (or such other assets) (with
such Collateral and such other assets valued at net book value thereof), be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.06(c)(i)(A).
(2) Until the earlier of January 1, 2015 and the payment in full of all amounts owed by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
under the WAPCo Settlement (such earlier date, the WAPCo Settlement Release Date), the Net Proceeds received by the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of any Asset Disposition or Event of Loss (excluding any
portion of such Net Proceeds referred to in paragraph (B)(1) above) shall be applied to prepay the Tranche B Borrowings in accordance with paragraph (A) above or shall be deposited in an Administrative Agent Account (such Account, the
WAPCo Settlement Account). Any amount in the WAPCo Settlement Account may be withdrawn solely to prepay the Tranche B Borrowings or, if no Default then exists, to pay the obligations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries under the
WAPCo Settlement. On the WAPCo Settlement Release Date, the Borrower shall offer in writing pursuant to reasonable procedures to be established by the Administrative Agent to prepay the Tranche B Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of
the amounts remaining in the WAPCo Settlement Account. Each Lender shall be deemed to have accepted such prepayment offer if (x) it has not declined such offer in writing to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after
receipt thereof, at which time the Borrower shall prepay the Tranche B Loans of all Lenders that have accepted such prepayment offer in accordance with such prepayment offer (ratably among such accepting Lenders) or (y) solely with respect to
any Net Proceeds of an Asset Disposition, to the extent the aggregate principal amount of Tranche B Loans prepaid with such Net Proceeds, together with all other such prepayments using Net Proceeds of Asset Dispositions of the Borrower and/or any of
its Subsidiaries that occur on or after the Closing Date, in the aggregate, do not exceed the Asset Disposition Prepayment Amount. Any amounts remaining in the WAPCo Settlement Account after the prepayment of Tranche B Loans pursuant to the offer by
the Borrower described in the two preceding sentences shall be available for reinvestment by the Loan Parties in accordance with Section 2.06(c)(i)(A).
(3) With respect to any Net Proceeds received by the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of any Asset
Disposition or Event of Loss after the WAPCo Settlement Release Date (excluding any portion of such Net Proceeds referred to in paragraph (B)(1) above), in the event the Borrower has delivered a Reinvestment Notice with respect to all or any portion
of such Net Proceeds, the Borrower shall offer in writing pursuant to reasonable procedures to be established by the Administrative Agent to prepay the Tranche B Borrowings in an aggregate principal
45
amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds (or such portion thereof). Each Lender shall be deemed to have accepted such prepayment offer if (x) it has not declined such offer in writing to
the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after receipt thereof, at which time the Borrower shall prepay the Tranche B Loans of all Lenders that have accepted such prepayment offer in accordance with such prepayment offer (ratably
among such accepting Lenders) or (y) solely with respect to any Net Proceeds of an Asset Disposition, to the extent the aggregate principal amount of Tranche B Loans prepaid with such Net Proceeds, together with all other such prepayments using
Net Proceeds of Asset Dispositions of the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries that occur on or after the Closing Date, in the aggregate, do not exceed the Asset Disposition Prepayment Amount. Any portion of such Net Proceeds remaining after the
prepayment of Tranche B Loans pursuant to the offer by the Borrower described in the two preceding sentences shall be available for reinvestment by the Loan Parties in accordance with Section 2.06(c)(i)(A).
(C) Any Net Proceeds with respect to which a Reinvestment Notice shall have been delivered as described above shall be
required, prior to the earlier of (i) the application thereof to make any Qualified Investment and (ii) the application thereof to make a prepayment under this paragraph, to be deposited into an Administrative Agent Account.
(ii) Debt Issuance. Subject to Section 2.06(f)(i), promptly upon the receipt by the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries of any Net Debt Proceeds, the Borrower shall prepay the Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Debt Proceeds.
(iii) Equity Issuance. Promptly upon receipt by the Borrower of any Equity Issuance Proceeds, the Borrower shall prepay
the Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to no less than 50% of such Equity Issuance Proceeds; provided, however, that, unless otherwise agreed to by the Borrower, no prepayment shall be required to be made in respect of a
receipt of any Equity Issuance Proceeds if the Total Leverage Ratio as of the end of the fiscal quarter most recently ended prior to such receipt is less than 2.25 to 1.00.
(iv) Excess Cash Flow. Within five (5) Business Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to
Section 5.06(a), beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015, the Borrower shall prepay the Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to (x) the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for the most recent fiscal
year covered by such financial statements less (y) the aggregate principal amount of any voluntary prepayment of Borrowings made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.06(b) during such fiscal year (or, at the option of the
Borrower, after the end of such fiscal year but prior to the time by such prepayment (it being understood that any such amount may not be then applied to reduce the prepayment required to be made under this paragraph with respect to Excess Cash flow
for the next following fiscal year)), excluding any such voluntary prepayments to the extent financed with the
46
incurrence of Long-Term Debt; provided that no prepayment shall be required under this paragraph if, and only to the extent, such prepayment shall not be permitted by the restrictions set
forth in the ABL Documents (so long as such restrictions are not more adverse to the Lenders than those in effect on the Closing Date), it being agreed that to the extent any prepayment or a portion thereof is not made on account of such
restrictions, such prepayment or such portion thereof shall be made immediately upon such restrictions ceasing to prohibit such prepayment.
(d) Accrued Interest; Effect of Notice. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be accompanied by accrued
interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date. Except as provided in Section 2.06(b),
all notices given pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower.
(e) Application of
Payments. Each prepayment of Borrowings made pursuant to Section 2.06(b) or 2.06(c) shall be applied to such Borrowing or Borrowings of any Class as shall have been specified by the Borrower pursuant to a notice to the
Administrative Agent; provided that, in the case of any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.06(c) at a time when Borrowings of more than one Class are outstanding, the Borrower shall select Borrowings to be prepaid so that the
aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated among the Borrowings pro rata based on the aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class; provided, further, that the amounts so allocable to any Facility
(other than the Tranche B Facility) may be applied to Borrowings under other Facilities if so provided in the definitive documentation establishing such Facility. Each such prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in
the prepaid Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with a refinancing in full of any Facility established hereunder, any Lender may, with the consent of the Borrower, elect to accept rollover Indebtedness in lieu
of all or any part of such Lenders applicable pro rata share of any prepayment of any Borrowing made pursuant to this Section 2.06.
(f) Call Protection.
(i) In the event that, prior to the fourth (4th) anniversary of the
Closing Date, the Loan Parties (i) prepay any Tranche B Loans (other than pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(i), 2.06(c)(iii), 2.06(c)(iv) or, for the avoidance of doubt, 2.05(a)) or (ii) effect any Repricing
Amendment (including, for avoidance of doubt, pursuant to Section 2.18), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Lenders, (A) in the case of clause (i), a prepayment
premium equal to the Makewhole Amount or to the percentage set forth below opposite the date of such prepayment of the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Loans so prepaid, as applicable, and (B) in the case of clause (ii), a fee equal
to the Makewhole Amount or to the percentage set forth below opposite the date of the effectiveness of such Repricing Amendment of the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Loans subject to such Repricing Amendment, as applicable, and in each
case of clauses (A) or (B), such premium or fee, as the case may be, shall be payable whether such prepayment or Repricing Amendment, as the case may be, occurs before, during or after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or an
acceleration of Term Loans has occurred:

(ii) With respect to any prepayments of Tranche B Loans pursuant to
Section 2.06(c)(i) on account of Asset Dispositions by the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries that occur on or after the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the
applicable Lenders, a prepayment premium equal to two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Loans so prepaid, and such premium shall be payable whether such prepayment occurs before, during or after an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or an acceleration of Term Loans has occurred, provided that no such premium shall be payable to the extent the aggregate principal amount of Tranche B Loans so prepaid exceeds the Asset Disposition
Prepayment Amount (it being understood that in connection with any such prepayment of Tranche B Loans that would result in such excess, only the portion of such prepayment that would not result in such excess shall be subject to such premium).
2.07 Interest.
(a)
Loans. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by each Lender to it from the date of such Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:
(i) Base Rate Loans. If such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus the
Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans of the applicable Class, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and on the date such Base Rate Loan shall be paid in full.
(ii) Eurodollar Loans. If such Loan is a Eurodollar Loan, a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest
Period applicable thereto plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Loans of the applicable Class, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period, and, in the case of Interest Periods of greater than three months, on each Business Day
which occurs at three month intervals from the first day of such Interest Period.
(b) Usury Recapture. In the event the rate of
interest chargeable under this Agreement at any time (calculated after giving effect to all items charged which constitute interest under applicable Legal Requirements, including fees and margin amounts, if applicable) is greater than
the Maximum Rate, the unpaid principal amount of the Loans shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Loans equals the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Loans if
the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In the event, upon payment in full of the Loans, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement and the Loans is less than the
total amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had, at all times, been in effect, then
48
the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an amount equal to the difference between (i) the
lesser of (A) the amount of interest which would have been charged on its Loans if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect and (B) the amount of interest which would have accrued on its Loans if the rates of interest set forth
in this Agreement had at all times been in effect and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid under this Agreement on its Loans. In the event the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, such
excess amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Loans, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower. In determining
whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, (A) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or
premium rather than interest, (B) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (C) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the
Obligations hereunder.
(c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee
or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due (but in each case after giving effect to any applicable grace period), whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after
as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this
Section 2.07 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans as provided in Section 2.07(a)(i).
(d) Interim Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrower agrees to pay to each Tranche B Lender that shall
have funded, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the full amount of its Tranche B Commitment to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, interest on such amount accruing for the Closing Date (notwithstanding that such amount would
not be made available for the account of the Borrower until the immediately succeeding Business Day) at the rate per annum that would have been applicable had such amount been outstanding on the Closing Date as a Base Rate Loan, and the Borrower
hereby agrees that such interest shall be payable regardless of whether or not the Arranger provides the Escrow Agent direction to release any funds held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement for the purpose of repaying the Existing
Credit Facility.
2.08 Breakage Costs.
(a) Funding Losses. In the case of any Borrowing which the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans,
the Borrower hereby indemnifies, and agrees to indemnify, each Lender against any loss, out-of-pocket cost, or expense (other than any lost profit) actually incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date
specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including any such loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired
by such Lender to fund the Eurodollar Loan to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Eurodollar Loan, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.
49
(b) Prepayment Losses. If (i) any payment of principal of any Eurodollar Loan is made
other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan as a result of any payment, prepayment, the acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or for any other reason or (ii) the Borrower fails to make a principal or interest
payment with respect to any Eurodollar Loan on the date such payment is due and payable, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days of any written demand sent by the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Lender to the Borrower, pay to the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender any amounts determined by such Lender to be required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, out of pocket costs, or expenses (other than any anticipated lost profits) actually
incurred or suffered by such Lender as a result of such payment or nonpayment, including any such loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such
Loans.
(c) Assignment Losses. If any assignment of a Eurodollar Loan is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period for
such Loan as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to clause (d) of Section 2.14, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days of any written demand sent by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender that is
the assignee thereof to the Borrower, pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender any amounts determined by such Lender to be required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, out-of-pocket costs, or expenses (other
than any anticipated lost profits) actually incurred by such Lender as a result of such assignment, including any such loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to
fund or maintain such Loan.
(d) Certificate. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is
entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.09 Increased Costs.
(a)
Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:
(i) subject any Credit Party to any Taxes (other than
(A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) 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;
(ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any
reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits or other liabilities with or in or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended or participated in by, or any other
acquisition of funds by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirement); or
(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or
Loans made by such Lender;
50
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any
Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) Capital
Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lenders holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on such Lenders capital or on the capital of such Lenders holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that
which such Lender or such Lenders holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lenders policies and the policies of such Lenders holding company with respect to capital adequacy and
liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lenders holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or
its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to
demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lenders right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
Section 2.09 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of
such Lenders intention to claim compensation therefor (except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the
period of retroactive effect thereof).
(e) Designation of Alternative Applicable Lending Office. Each Lender agrees to use
commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its respective internal policies and subject to legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this
Section 2.09 or Section 2.11(a), would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
2.10 Payments and Computations.
(a) Payment Procedures. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement prior to the time expressly required hereunder (or, if
no such time is expressly required, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time)) on the day when due to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agents Applicable Lending Office in immediately available funds;
51
provided that payments specified to be made directly to any Person, including payments pursuant to Sections 2.08, 2.09, 2.11 and 10.04, shall be made directly to the
Persons entitled thereto. Each Loan shall be repaid and each payment of interest thereon shall be paid in Dollars. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent will, promptly after receipt by it of
any payment for the account of any other Person, and in any event prior to the close of business on the day any timely payment is made, cause to be distributed like funds to the appropriate recipient.
(b) Computations. All computations of interest based on the Prime Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year
of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Eurodollar Rate and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent, on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the
actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c) Non-Business Day Payments. Whenever any payment shall be stated to be due on a day other
than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be.
(d) Agent Reliance. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment
is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in
reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount
so distributed to such Lender, 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 Federal Funds
Effective Rate. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this paragraph (d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error
2.11 Taxes.
(a)
Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required
by any Legal Requirement. If any Legal Requirement (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 the relevant Legal Requirements and, if such Tax is an
Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent and each Lender receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
52
(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph
(a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Legal Requirements.
(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days
after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent or such
Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder, whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes or Other 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 Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after
demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the
Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lenders failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to
such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed
or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. 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 Loan 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 paragraph (d).
(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower 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.
(f) Status of Lenders. Any
Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such
properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by the
53
Borrower 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 requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower 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 in Section 2.11(g), with the exception of Section 2.11(g)(v)) shall not be required if in the Lenders 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.
(g) Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent applicable forms, certificates or documents, including IRS Form W-9 (in the case of a Lender that is not a Foreign Lender), as may be
required under the Code or other Legal Requirements as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding or backup withholding Tax. Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower 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 request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but
only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:
(i) two duly
completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8IMY (with applicable attachments) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,
(ii) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI,
(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h)
or 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a 10 percent shareholder of the Borrower within
the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (C) a controlled foreign corporation described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (D) conducting a trade or business in the United States of America with which the
relevant payments are effectively connected and (y) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8IMY (with applicable attachments),
(iv) in the case of a Foreign Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made hereunder or under any other Loan
Document (including a partnership of a participating Lender) (x) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (y) the relevant form or forms prescribed in this Section 2.11(g) that would be required of each such beneficial owner
or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; or
54
(v) any other form prescribed by Legal Requirements as a basis for claiming
exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding Tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Legal Requirements to permit the Withholding Agent to determine the withholding or deduction
required to be made.
If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such
Lender fails 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 Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed
by Legal Requirements and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Withholding Agent, (A) a certification signed by an authorized officer thereof and (B) other documentation prescribed by Legal Requirements (including as
prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent sufficient for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such
Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For purposes of this Section 2.11(g), 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 Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith,
that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11, it shall pay to the Borrower
an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.11 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon
the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority other than any such penalties, interest or
other charges resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender
in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any
other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
(i) Defined Terms. For
purposes of this Section 2.11, the term Legal Requirements includes FATCA.
55
2.12 Sharing of Payments, Etc.. 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 its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lenders receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans
and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations than the proportion received by any other Lenders, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (b) purchase (for cash
at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations 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 2.12 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment
made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or
participant, (C) any acceptance by any Lender of any rollover Indebtedness issued to such Lender in lieu of such Lenders applicable pro rata share of any prepayment of any Borrowing made pursuant to Section 2.06 or (D) payments
made pursuant to a court order. Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Legal Requirements, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise
against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
2.13 Applicable Lending Offices. Each Lender may book its Loans at any Applicable Lending Office selected by such Lender and may change
its Applicable Lending Office from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Applicable Lending Office and the Loans shall be deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of such Applicable Lending Office. Each Lender may, by
written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower designate replacement or additional Applicable Lending Offices through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account repayments are to be made.
2.14 Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.09, (b) the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, (c) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (d) any Lender has failed to consent to a
proposed amendment, waiver, consent, discharge or termination that under Section 10.01 requires the consent of all the Lenders (or all the affected Lenders or all the Lenders of the affected Class) and with respect to which the Majority
Lenders (or, in circumstances where Section 10.01 does not require the consent of the Majority Lenders, the Majority Facility Lenders of the affected Class) shall have granted their consent, then the Borrower may, upon notice to such
Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.06 or pursuant to other procedures established by the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower, which may include deemed assignment upon the assignees receipt of amounts owed to it under this Agreement), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (or,
in the case of any such
56
assignment and delegation resulting from such Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender or from a failure to provide a consent, all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents as a Lender of a particular Class) to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (i) the Borrower shall
have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its
Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder as a Lender (or as a Lender of a particular Class, as applicable), from the assignee or the Borrower, (iii) in the case of any such assignment and
delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.09 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) in the
case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from the failure to provide a consent, the assignee shall have given such consent and, as a result of such assignment and delegation and any contemporaneous assignments and delegations and
consents, the applicable amendment, waiver, discharge or termination can be effected. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver or consent by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply.
2.15 Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Voting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until
such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Defaulting Lenders right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.
(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be 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, 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
Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or
release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lenders having been a Defaulting Lender.
2.16 [Reserved].
2.17 Loan Modification Offers.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower may on one or more occasions, by written notice to the
Administrative Agent, make one or more offers (each, a Loan Modification Offer) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an Affected Class) to effect one
or more Permitted
57
Amendments relating to such Affected Class pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth
(i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective. Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and
Commitments of the Lenders of the Affected Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the Accepting Lenders) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lenders Loans and
Commitments of such Affected Class as to which such Lenders Assumption has been made; provided that the no Permitted Amendment relating to any Tranche B Loan shall become effective unless the aggregate principal amount of the Loans of
the Accepting Lenders subject to the Permitted Amendment is greater than $10,000,000 or, if less, the aggregate principal amount of the Affected Class outstanding at the time of the Loan Modification Offer.
(b) A Permitted Amendment shall be effected pursuant to a Loan Modification Agreement executed and delivered by the Borrower, each applicable
Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agent; provided that no Permitted Amendment shall become effective unless the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent such legal opinions, board resolutions, secretarys
certificates, officers certificates and other documents as shall be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan
Modification Agreement. Each Loan Modification Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Accepting Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in
the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.17, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new
Class or Facility of loans and/or commitments hereunder. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby acknowledge that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this
Agreement are not intended to apply to the transactions effected pursuant to this Section 2.17.
2.18 Replacement
Facilities.
(a) At any time and from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, by notice
to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request to replace all or a portion of the Loans under any Class with one or more additional tranches of term loans under this
Agreement (the Replacement Loans; each such replacement facility, a Replacement Facility); provided that (i) at the time of each such request and upon the effectiveness of each Replacement Facility
Amendment, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or shall result therefrom, (ii) on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Replacement Loans (after giving effect to other permitted pro forma
adjustment events and any permanent repayment of Debt after the beginning of the relevant determination period but prior to or simultaneous with such Borrowing), the Borrower shall be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in
Sections 6.15 and 6.16 recomputed as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower for which financial statements shall have been (or shall have been required to be) delivered pursuant to
Section 5.06 and (iii) each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in or pursuant to the Loan
58
Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (provided that if any representation or warranty is by its terms qualified by materiality, such representation shall be true
and correct in all respects) immediately prior to, and after giving effect to, the incurrence of such Replacement Loans on and as of the date that such Replacement Loans are made, except in the case of any such representation and warranty that
specifically relates to an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be so true and correct on and as of such earlier date. Each tranche of Replacement Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $10,000,000 and be in an
aggregate principal amount that is not less than $50,000,000 (or such lesser minimum amount approved by the Administrative Agent) and shall not exceed the principal amount of the Loans being replaced (plus the amount of fees, expenses and original
issue discount incurred in connection with such Replacement Loans). The proceeds of any Replacement Loans shall be applied only to prepay the Loans of the Class which such Replacement Loans are replacing.
(b) Any Replacement Loans (i) shall rank pari passu in right of payment (provided the Borrower may make optional
prepayments of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.06(b)) and security with the Obligations in respect of the other Loans pursuant to the relevant Replacement Facility Amendment (which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent), (ii) for purposes of mandatory prepayments, shall be treated substantially the same as (or, to the extent set forth in the relevant Replacement Facility Amendment, less favorably than) the Loans being replaced and
(iii) other than amortization, maturity date and pricing (interest rate, fees, funding discounts and prepayment premiums) (as set forth in the relevant Replacement Facility Amendment) shall have the same terms (or, to the extent set forth in
the relevant Replacement Facility Amendment, less favorable terms or more favorable terms (if such more favorable terms benefit all Lenders)) as the Loans being replaced, or such other terms as are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
and the Borrower; provided that (A) any Replacement Loans shall not have a final maturity date earlier than the date which is 91 days after the final scheduled maturity date of the Loans being replaced, (B) any Replacement Loans
shall not have a weighted average life to maturity that is less than 91 days later than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the then remaining Loans under the applicable Class, (C) principal of and interest on any Loans being
replaced with Replacement Loans shall be paid in full on the Replacement Facility Closing Date for the applicable Replacement Loans and (D) the Loans of each Lender under the replaced Class shall be prepaid ratably. In addition, the terms and
conditions applicable to any Replacement Facility may provide for additional or different covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders under such Replacement Facility and applicable only during periods after the
then latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Replacement Facility is issued, incurred or obtained or the date on which all non-refinanced Obligations (excluding Obligations in respect of any Hedging Arrangements and contingent
reimbursement and indemnification obligations, in each case, which are not due and payable) are paid in full.
(c) Any New Lender which
elects to become a Lender under this Agreement in connection with any transaction described in Section 2.18(a) shall execute a New Lender Supplement, whereupon such New Lender shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the
same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.
59
(d) Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount
and proposed terms of the relevant Replacement Loans. Each Replacement Facility shall become effective pursuant to an amendment (each, a Replacement Facility Amendment) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan
Documents, executed by the Borrower, the Lenders (including any New Lenders) providing the Replacement Loans and the Administrative Agent. No Replacement Facility Amendment shall require the consent of any Lenders or any other Person other than the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party to such Replacement Facility Amendment. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Replacement Loans, unless it so agrees. Commitments in respect of any Replacement Loans shall become
Commitments under this Agreement. A Replacement Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders or any other Person, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section (including to provide for class voting provisions applicable to the Lenders providing the applicable Replacement Loans on terms comparable to the provisions of
Section 9.02(b)). The effectiveness of any Replacement Facility Amendment shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party thereto, be subject to the satisfaction or waiver on the date thereof (each, a
Replacement Facility Closing Date) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 2.18(a). To the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the effectiveness of a Replacement Facility Amendment may be
conditioned on the Administrative Agents receipt of customary legal opinions with respect thereto, board resolutions and officers certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under
Article III, with respect to the Borrower and the other Loan Parties. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement
shall not apply to any of the transactions effected pursuant to this Section 2.18.
2.19 Tax Treatment.
(a) The Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent each agree that the Loan is intended to be treated as debt for U.S. federal income
tax purposes. The inclusion of this Section 2.19 is not an admission by any lender that it is subject to U.S. taxation.
(b)
The Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent each agree that the Loan is a contingent payment debt instrument governed by the rules set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4. The Borrower shall provide the Lenders with a
schedule setting forth the comparable yield and projected payment schedule within 30 days after the Closing Date; provided that such schedule shall be subject to the Lenders review and comments, such comments to be provided to the
Borrower within 30 days of the receipt of the schedule. The Borrower and the Lenders shall discuss in good faith the Lenders comments and seek to agree on a binding projected payment schedule; provided however if the Borrower and Lenders are
unable to agree within 30 days of the Borrowers receipt of the Lenders comments, each party shall be entitled to proceed with its tax reporting obligations as contemplated by the applicable Treasury Regulations.
60
(c) The Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall adhere to this Agreement for
U.S. federal income tax purposes and not to take any action or file any tax return, report or declaration inconsistent with this Section 2.19.

dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, and all other notices, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; and
(b) the Administrative Agent shall at the request of, or may with the consent of, the Majority Lenders proceed to enforce its rights and
remedies under the Security Documents, this Agreement, and any other Loan Document for the ratable benefit of the Lenders by appropriate proceedings.
7.03 Automatic Acceleration of Maturity. If any Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(e) shall occur with respect to the
Borrower:
(a) (i) the Commitments and the obligation of each Lender to make extensions of credit hereunder, including making Loans, shall
terminate, and (ii) all principal, interest, fees, reimbursements, indemnifications, and all other amounts payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall become and be forthwith due and payable in full, without notice of intent
to demand, demand, presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, grace, notice of dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, and all other notices, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Borrower; and
(b) the Administrative Agent shall at the request of, or may with the consent of, the Majority Lenders proceed to enforce
its rights and remedies under the Security Documents, this Agreement, and any other Loan Document for the ratable benefit of the Lenders by appropriate proceedings.
97
7.04 Non-exclusivity of Remedies. No remedy conferred upon the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each remedy shall be cumulative of all other remedies existing by contract, at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
7.05 Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Legal Requirements, 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 or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender and then due and payable, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Loan Party are
owed to a branch or office of such Lender or Affiliate different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that to the extent prohibited by applicable law as described in the definition of
Excluded Swap Obligation, no amounts received from, or set off with respect to, any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this
Section 7.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower 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.
7.06 Application of Proceeds. From and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any monies or property actually received by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the exercise of any rights or remedies under any Security Document or any other agreement with any Loan Party which secures any of the Obligations (collectively, the
Default Proceeds), may, at the option of the Administrative Agent (as directed by the Majority Lenders), be applied in the following order:
(a) First, to payment of the reasonable expenses, liabilities, losses, costs, duties, fees, charges or other moneys whatsoever (together with
interest payable thereon) as may have been paid or incurred in, about or incidental to any sale or other realization of Collateral, including reasonable compensation to the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and of any other
unreimbursed reasonable expenses and indemnities, in each case for which the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party is to be reimbursed pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and that are then due and payable;
(b) Second, to the ratable payment of accrued but unpaid fees (including, without limitation, amounts owed pursuant to
Section 2.06(f)) owing to the Lenders in respect of the Loans under this Agreement;
(c) Third, to the ratable payment of
accrued but unpaid interest on the Loans then due and payable under this Agreement;
98
(d) Fourth, to the ratable payment of all outstanding principal of the Loans and, according to
the unpaid termination amounts thereof, to the payment of all obligations of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries owing to any Hedging Counterparty under any Hedging Arrangement, if any, then due and payable;
(e) Fifth, ratably, according to the then unpaid amounts thereof, without preference or priority of any kind among them, to the ratable payment
of all other Obligations then due and payable which relate to Loans and which are owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders;
(f)
Sixth, to the ratable payment of any other outstanding Obligations then due and payable; and
(g) Seventh, any excess after payment in full
of all Obligations shall be paid to the Borrower or any other Loan Party as appropriate or to such other Person who may be lawfully entitled to receive such excess.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Obligations arising under Hedging Arrangements with Hedge Counterparties shall be excluded from the application
described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Hedge Counterparty, as the case may be, (ii) no
amounts received from any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor and (iii) Default Proceeds shall be applied first as set forth in paragraph (a) above before application for any other purpose.
ARTICLE VIII
THE GUARANTY
8.01 Liabilities Guaranteed. Each Guarantor hereby, joint and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the prompt
payment at maturity of the Obligations (other than, with respect to any Guarantor, any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor).
8.02
Nature of Guaranty. This guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable, completed and continuing guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection, and no notice of the Obligations or any extension of credit already or hereafter contracted by or
extended to the Borrower or any other Loan Party need be given to any Guarantor. This guaranty may not be revoked by any Guarantor and shall continue to be effective with respect to the Obligations arising or created after any attempted revocation
by such Guarantor and shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations (other than contingent obligations) are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto no Obligations may be
outstanding. The Loan Parties and the Lenders may modify, alter, rearrange, extend for any period and/or renew from time to time, the Obligations, and the Lenders may waive any Default or Events of Default without notice to any Guarantor and in such
event each Guarantor will remain fully bound hereunder on the Obligations. This guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by
any of the Lenders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy
99
or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. This guaranty may be enforced by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and
any subsequent holder of any of the Obligations and shall not be discharged by the assignment or negotiation of all or part of the Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives presentment, demand, notice of non-payment, protest and notice of
protest and dishonor, notice of Default or Event of Default, and also notice of acceptance of this guaranty, acceptance on the part of the Lenders being conclusively presumed by the Lenders request for this guaranty and the Guarantors
being party to this Agreement.
8.03 Administrative Agents Rights. Each Guarantor authorizes the Administrative Agent, without
notice or demand and without affecting any Guarantors liability hereunder, to take and hold security for the payment of its obligations under this Article VIII and/or the Obligations, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such
security; and to apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent in its discretion may determine, and to obtain a guaranty of the Obligations from any one or more Persons and at any time or times to
enforce, waive, rearrange, modify, limit or release any of such other Persons from their obligations under such guaranties.
8.04
Guarantors Waivers.
(a) General. Each Guarantor waives any right to require any of the Lenders to (i) proceed
against the Borrower or any other Person liable on the Obligations, (ii) enforce any of their rights against any other guarantor of the Obligations, (iii) proceed or enforce any of their rights against or exhaust any security given to
secure the Obligations, (iv) have the Borrower or any other Loan Party joined with any Guarantor in any suit arising out of this Article VIII and/or the Obligations, or (v) pursue any other remedy in the Lenders powers
whatsoever. It is agreed between the Guarantors and the Lenders that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for this Guaranty and such waivers, the
Lenders would not extend or continue to extend credit under this Agreement. The Lenders shall not be required to mitigate damages or take any action to reduce, collect or enforce the Obligations. Each Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason
of any disability, lack of corporate authority or power, or other defense of the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Obligations, and shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other guarantor be
found not liable thereon for any reason. Whether and when to exercise any of the remedies of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the Administrative Agent, and no delay by the Administrative
Agent in enforcing any remedy, including delay in conducting a foreclosure sale, shall be a defense to any Guarantors liability under this Article VIII.
(b) In addition to the waivers contained in Section 8.04(a), the Guarantors waive, and agree that they shall not at any time insist
upon, plead or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, marshaling of assets or redemption laws, or exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay,
prevent or otherwise affect the performance by the Guarantors of their obligations under, or the enforcement by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of, this guaranty. The Guarantors hereby waive diligence, presentment and demand (whether for
nonpayment or protest or of acceptance, maturity, extension of time, change in nature or form of the Obligations,
100
acceptance of further security, release of further security, composition or agreement arrived at as to the amount of, or the terms of, the Obligations, notice of adverse change in any Loan
Partys financial condition or any other fact which might materially increase the risk to the Guarantors) with respect to any of the Obligations or all other demands whatsoever and waive the benefit of all provisions of law which are or might
be in conflict with the terms of this Article VIII. The Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree that, as of the date of this guaranty, their obligations under this guaranty are not subject to any offsets or defenses of any kind against the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower or any other Person that executes a Loan Document. The Guarantors further jointly and severally agree that their obligations under this guaranty shall not be subject to any counterclaims, offsets or
defenses of any kind which may arise in the future against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person that executes a Loan Document.
(c) Subrogation. Until the Obligations have been paid in full, each Guarantor waives all rights of subrogation or reimbursement against
each Loan Party, whether arising by contract or operation of law (including any such right arising under any federal, state or other applicable Debtor Relief Laws) and waives any right to enforce any remedy which the Lenders now have or may
hereafter have against each Loan Party, and waives any benefit or any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
8.05 Maturity of Obligations, Payment. Each Guarantor agrees that if the maturity of any of the Obligations is accelerated by bankruptcy
or otherwise, such maturity shall also be deemed accelerated for the purpose of this Article VIII without demand or notice to any Guarantor. Each Guarantor will, forthwith upon notice from the Administrative Agent, jointly and severally pay
to the Administrative Agent the amount due and unpaid by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and guaranteed hereby. The failure of the Administrative Agent to give this notice shall not in any way release any Guarantor hereunder.
8.06 Administrative Agents Expenses. If any Guarantor fails to pay the Obligations after notice from the Administrative Agent of a
Loan Partys failure to pay any Obligations at maturity, and if the Administrative Agent obtains the services of an attorney for collection of amounts owing by any Guarantor hereunder, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of any of their
rights under this Article VIII, or if suit is filed to enforce this Article VIII, or if proceedings are had in any bankruptcy, probate, receivership or other judicial proceedings for the establishment or collection of any amount owing
by any Guarantor hereunder, or if any amount owing by any Guarantor hereunder is collected through such proceedings, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the Administrative Agents reasonable
attorneys fees.
8.07 Liability. It is expressly agreed that the liability of each Guarantor for the payment of the
Obligations guaranteed hereby shall be primary and not secondary.
8.08 Events and Circumstances Not Reducing or Discharging any
Guarantors Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby consents and agrees to each of the following to the fullest extent permitted by law, and agrees that each Guarantors obligations under this Article VIII shall not be released,
diminished, impaired, reduced or adversely affected by any of the following, and waives any rights (including rights to notice) which each Guarantor might otherwise have as a result of or in connection with any of the following:
101
(a) Modifications, Etc. Any renewal, extension, modification, increase, decrease,
alteration or rearrangement of all or any part of the Obligations, or this Agreement or any instrument executed in connection therewith, or any contract or understanding between the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and any of the Lenders, or any
other Person, pertaining to the Obligations, or the waiver or consent by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to any of the provisions hereof or thereof, or any modification or termination of the terms of any intercreditor or
subordination agreement pursuant to which claims of other creditors against any Guarantor or the Borrower or any other Loan Party are subordinated to the claims of the Lenders or pursuant to which the Obligations are subordinated to claims of other
creditors;
(b) Adjustment, etc. Any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance or compromise that might be granted or given by any of the
Lenders to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Guarantor or any Person liable on the Obligations;
(c) Condition of the Borrower,
or any other Loan Party or any Guarantor. The insolvency, bankruptcy arrangement, adjustment, composition, liquidation, disability, dissolution, death or lack of power of the Borrower, any other Loan or any other Guarantor or any other Person at
any time liable for the payment of all or part of the Obligations; or any dissolution of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Guarantor, or any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or
any other Guarantor, or any changes in the shareholders, partners, or members of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Guarantor; or any reorganization of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Guarantor;
(d) Invalidity of Obligations. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of all or any part of the Obligations, or any document or
agreement executed in connection with the Obligations, for any reason whatsoever, including the fact that the Obligations, or any part thereof, exceed the amount permitted by law, the act of creating the Obligations or any part thereof is ultra
vires, the officers or representatives executing the documents or otherwise creating the Obligations acted in excess of their authority, the Obligations violate applicable usury laws, the Borrower or any other Loan Party has valid defenses, claims
or offsets (whether at law, in equity or by agreement) which render the Obligations wholly or partially uncollectible from the Borrower or any other Loan Party, the creation, performance or repayment of the Obligations (or the execution, delivery
and performance of any document or instrument representing part of the Obligations or executed in connection with the Obligations, or given to secure the repayment of the Obligations) is illegal, uncollectible, legally impossible or unenforceable,
or this Agreement or other documents or instruments pertaining to the Obligations have been forged or otherwise are irregular or not genuine or authentic;
(e) Release of Obligors. Any full or partial release of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party on the Obligations or any
part thereof, of any Guarantors, or any other Person now or hereafter liable, whether directly or indirectly, jointly, severally, or jointly and severally, to pay, perform, Guarantee or assure the payment of the Obligations or any part thereof, it
being recognized, acknowledged and agreed by each Guarantor that such
102
Guarantor may be required to pay the Obligations in full without assistance or support of any other Person, and no Guarantor has been induced to enter into this Article VIII on the basis
of a contemplation, belief, understanding or agreement that other parties other than the Borrower and the other Loan Parties will be liable to perform the Obligations, or the Lenders will look to other parties to perform the Obligations;
(f) Other Security. The taking or accepting of any other security, collateral or guaranty, or other assurance of payment, for all or any
part of the Obligations;
(g) Release of Collateral etc. Any release, surrender, exchange, subordination, deterioration, waste, loss
or impairment (including negligent, willful, unreasonable or unjustifiable impairment) of any collateral, property or security, at any time existing in connection with, or assuring or securing payment of, all or any part of the Obligations;
(h) Care and Diligence. The failure of the Lenders or any other Person to exercise diligence or reasonable care in the preservation,
protection, enforcement, sale or other handling or treatment of all or any part of such collateral, property or security;
(i) Status of
Liens. The fact that any collateral, security, security interest or Lien contemplated or intended to be given, created or granted as security for the repayment of the Obligations shall not be properly perfected or created, or shall prove to be
unenforceable or subordinate to any other security interest or Lien, it being recognized and agreed by each Guarantor that no Guarantor is entering into this Article VIII in reliance on, or in contemplation of the benefits of, the validity,
enforceability, collectability or value of any of the collateral for the Obligations;
(j) Payments Rescinded. Any payment by the
Borrower or any other Loan Party to the Lenders is held to constitute a preference under any Debtor Relief Law, or for any reason the Lenders are required to refund such payment or pay such amount to the Borrower or any other Loan Party or someone
else; or
(k) Other Actions Taken or Omitted. Any other action taken or omitted to be taken with respect to this Agreement, the
Obligations, or the security and collateral therefor, whether or not such action or omission prejudices any Guarantor or increases the likelihood that any Guarantor will be required to pay the Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, it being the
unambiguous and unequivocal intention of each Guarantor that each Guarantor shall be obligated to joint and severally pay the Obligations when due, notwithstanding any occurrence, circumstance, event, action, or omission whatsoever, whether
contemplated or uncontemplated, and whether or not otherwise or particularly described herein, except for the full and final payment and satisfaction of the Obligations.
8.09 Subordination of All Guarantor Claims .
(a) As used herein, the term Guarantor Claims shall mean all debts and liabilities of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the
Borrower to any Guarantor, whether such debts and liabilities now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligation of the Borrower or such Subsidiary thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and
103
several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or liabilities be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor
such debts or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by any Guarantor. The Guarantor Claims shall include without limitation all rights and
claims of any Guarantor against the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise as a result of such Guarantors payment of all or a portion of the Obligations.
(b) Each of the Borrower and each Guarantor hereby (i) authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to demand specific performance
of the terms of this Section 8.09, whether or not the Borrower or any Guarantor shall have complied with any of the provisions hereof applicable to it, at any time when it shall have failed to comply with any provisions of this
Section 8.09 which are applicable to it and (ii) irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law, which might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance.
(c) Upon any distribution of assets of any Loan Party in any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization (whether in bankruptcy,
insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise):
(i) The Lenders
shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of the Obligations before any Guarantor is entitled to receive any payment on account of the Guarantor Claims.
(ii) Any payment or distribution of assets of any Loan Party of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities,
to which the Borrower or any Guarantor would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 8.09(c), shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution directly to the Secured
Parties, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Obligations remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provisions therefor to the Lenders.
(d) No right of the Lenders or any other present or future holders of any Obligations to enforce the subordination provisions herein shall at
any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Loan Party or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any
Guarantor with the terms hereof, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.
8.10
Claims in Bankruptcy. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtors relief, or other insolvency proceedings involving the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower, as debtor, the Lenders shall have the
right to prove their claim in any proceeding, so as to establish their rights hereunder and receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian, dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable upon Guarantor Claims. Each
Guarantor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders. Should the Administrative Agent or any Lender receive, for application upon the Obligations, any such dividend or payment which is
104
otherwise payable to any Guarantor, and which, as between the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower and any Guarantor, shall constitute a credit upon the Guarantor Claims, then upon payment
in full of the Obligations, such Guarantor shall become subrogated to the rights of the Lenders to the extent that such payments to the Lenders on the Guarantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Obligations, and such subrogation
shall be with respect to that proportion of the Obligations which would have been unpaid if the Administrative Agent or a Lender had not received dividends or payments upon the Guarantor Claims.
8.11 Payments Held in Trust. In the event that notwithstanding Sections 8.09 and 8.10 above, any Guarantor should receive
any funds, payments, claims or distributions which are prohibited by such Sections, such Guarantor agrees to hold in trust for the Lenders an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims or distributions so received, and agrees that it
shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims or distributions except to pay them promptly to the Administrative Agent, and each Guarantor covenants promptly to pay the same to the Administrative Agent.
8.12 Benefit of Guaranty. The provisions of this Article VIII are for the benefit of the Lenders, their successors, and their
permitted transferees, endorsees and assigns. In the event all or any part of the Obligations are transferred, endorsed or assigned by the Secured Parties, as the case may be, to any Person or Persons in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
any reference to the Lenders herein, as the case may be, shall be deemed to refer equally to such Person or Persons.
8.13
Reinstatement. This Article VIII shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective in the event any petition is filed by or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party for liquidation or reorganization, in the event
that any of them becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or in the event a receiver, trustee or similar Person is appointed for all or any significant part of any of their assets, and shall continue to be effective or
be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to Legal Requirements, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Lenders, whether
as a voidable preference, fraudulent conveyance, or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the
Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
8.14
Liens Subordinate . Each Guarantor agrees that any Liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon the Borrowers or any Subsidiary of the Borrowers assets securing payment of the Guarantor Claims
shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any Liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon the Borrowers or any Subsidiary of the Borrowers assets securing payment of the Obligations, regardless of
whether such encumbrances in favor of any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties presently exist or are hereafter created or attach.
8.15 Guarantors Enforcement Rights . Without the prior written consent of the Lenders, no Guarantor shall (a) exercise or
enforce any creditors right it may have against the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower, or (b) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise
105
take steps or institute any action or proceeding (judicial or otherwise, the commencement of or joinder in any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtors relief or insolvency
proceeding) to enforce any Lien, mortgages, deeds of trust, security interest, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances on assets of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower held by such Guarantor.
8.16 Limitation. It is the intention of the Guarantors and each Secured Party that the amount of the Obligations guaranteed by each
Guarantor shall be in, but not in excess of, the maximum amount permitted by fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and similar Legal Requirement applicable to such Guarantor. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Article VIII or in any other agreement or instrument executed in connection with the payment of any of the Obligations guaranteed hereby, the amount of the Obligations guaranteed by any Guarantor under this Article VIII shall be
limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such Guarantors obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any other
Legal Requirement.
8.17 Contribution Rights.
(a) To the extent that any payment is made under this guaranty (a Guarantor Payment) by a Guarantor, which Guarantor
Payment, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by all other Guarantors, exceeds the amount which such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied
by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Guarantors Allocable Amount (as defined below) (in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of all of the Guarantors in effect
immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following the date on which the Obligations shall be paid and satisfied in full and each Guarantor shall have performed all of its obligations hereunder, such Guarantor shall be
entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such
Guarantor Payment.
(b) As of any date of determination, the Allocable Amount of any Guarantor shall be equal to the
maximum amount of the claim which could then be recovered from such Guarantor under this guaranty without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable
state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.
(c) This
Section 8.17 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Guarantors and nothing set forth in this Section 8.17 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any
amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty.
106
(d) The rights of the parties under this Section 8.17 shall be exercisable upon the
date the Obligations shall be paid and satisfied in full and each Guarantor shall have performed all of its obligations hereunder.
(e) The
parties hereto acknowledge that the right of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of any Guarantor to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.
8.18 Release of Guarantors. Upon the sale or disposition of any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to any Person other
than the Borrower or any Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent shall, at the Borrowers expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor such documents as such Guarantor shall reasonably require and take any other actions reasonably required to
evidence or effect the release of such Guarantor from this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
8.19 Keepwell. Each Qualified
Keepwell Provider 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 to honor all of its obligations under this
guarantee in respect of any Swap Obligation (provided, however, that each Qualified Keepwell Provider shall only be liable under this Section 8.19 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without
rendering its obligations under this Section 8.19, or otherwise under this guarantee, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each
Qualified Keepwell Provider under this Section 8.19 shall remain in full force and effect until such Qualified Keepwell Provider is released from its obligations under the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms thereof. Each
Qualified Keepwell Provider intends that this Section 8.19 constitute, and this Section 8.19 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 Commodity Exchange Act.
ARTICLE IX
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
9.01
Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders irrevocably appoints JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such
actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article (other than
Sections 9.06 and 9.09(b)) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Each of the Secured Parties hereby
acknowledges and confirms their agreement that the Administrative Agent is subject to certain Security Documents as agent for and on behalf of the Lenders on the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Security Documents.
107
9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Administrative Agent 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, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and
generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower 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.
9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein
and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not:
(a) be subject to
any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(b) 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 Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan 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 Loan Document or Legal Requirement; and
(c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, or be liable for the failure to disclose,
any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Agent or any of its respective Affiliates in any capacity.
None of the Administrative Agent or its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or
at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in
Section 10.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default and stating that
such notice is a notice of default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Guarantor or a Lender. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to
the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Majority Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, the Majority Facility Lenders or all or all affected Lenders);
provided that unless and until it shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it
shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.
108
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire
into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection
herewith or therewith, (iii) 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, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including the creation and perfection of security interests in and Liens on the Collateral) or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set
forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being
acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take
any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, the Majority Facility Lenders or all or all affected Lenders) as it
deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
9.04 Reliance by the 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 that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is
satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for a Loan Party),
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. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the
payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.
9.05 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 Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any of its sub-agents may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or
through its respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care.
109
9.06 Resignation of the Administrative Agent.
(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and (b) the
Administrative Agent may be removed upon the prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by the Majority Lenders. Such resignation or removal, as the case may be, is to be effective upon the appointment of a successor
Administrative Agent or, if no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, thirty (30) days after such notice of resignation by the retiring Administrative Agent or such notice of removal by the Majority Lenders, as the case may be. Upon
any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (with any institution that is
regularly engaged in the business of serving as a non-lender administrative agent for syndicated credit facilities (such as Cortland Capital Market Services LLC) and any Affiliate of the Arranger, in each case, being deemed reasonably acceptable to
the Borrower). The resigning Administrative Agent shall take such actions and execute such documents as reasonably necessary in connection with such resignation or removal, as the case may be (including, without limitation, transfers of all
collateral held by such resigning Administrative Agent to the successor Administrative Agent and terminations and/or transfers of rights or control in all collateral related agreements). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Majority Lenders within twenty (20) days after the resigning Administrative Agents giving notice of its intention to resign or the Majority Lenders giving their notice of removal, as the case may be, then the resigning
Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent has resigned and no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Majority Lenders may perform all
the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Majority Lenders until such successor
Administrative Agent shall have been appointed as provided herein. No successor Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Administrative Agent has accepted the appointment and such financing statements, or
amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Security Documents, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Majority Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens
granted or purported to be granted by the Security Documents, shall have been executed and filed or recorded, as applicable. Upon the Assumption of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor
Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the resigning
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Security
Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, in the case of any Collateral in the
possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such
110
Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this paragraph and subject to the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the Administrative Agent (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Security Document, including any action required to
maintain the perfection of any such security interest). After the effectiveness of the resignation of an Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Administrative Agent in respect
of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as an Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders; Certain Acknowledgments.
(a) Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties has made any representations or
warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative
Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent 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 also 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 Loan Document or any related
agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. In this regard, each party hereto acknowledges that Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP is acting in this transaction as special counsel to the Administrative Agent only. Each other
party hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that it deems necessary in connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished
to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial
or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.
(b) Each Lender shall be deemed
by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and making any Tranche B Loan to have consented to, approved or accepted each Loan Document and each other document or other matter referred to in Article III required to be consented to or
approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or the Lenders and to have been satisfied with the satisfaction of all other conditions precedent required to be satisfied under Article III.
9.08 Indemnification. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent and each of its Related Parties (to
the extent not reimbursed by the Loan Parties), according to their respective ratable shares (based on the aggregate outstanding
111
principal amount of the Loans) in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have
terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such respective ratable shares immediately prior to such date), and hold harmless each such Indemnitee from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities in all
cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of any Related Party; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for (a) the payment to any Indemnitee for any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities
to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnitees own gross negligence or willful misconduct and (b) claims made or legal proceedings commenced against
such Indemnitee by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based on rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the
directions of the Majority Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand
for its ratable share of any out of pocket expenses (including all fees, expenses and disbursements of any law firm or other external counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery,
administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent that
the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such by the Loan Parties. The undertaking in this Section shall survive termination of the Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.
9.09 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.
(a) Each Lender (as a Lender and in its capacity as a potential Hedge Counterparty) and each other Secured Party (by their acceptance of the
benefits of any Lien encumbering Collateral) acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent has entered into the Security Documents on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, and the Secured Parties hereby agree to be bound by the terms of
such Security Documents, acknowledge receipt of copies of such Security Documents and consent to the rights, powers, remedies, indemnities and exculpations given to the Administrative Agent thereunder. All rights, powers and remedies available to
the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral, or otherwise pursuant to the Security Documents, shall be subject to the provisions of such Security Documents.
(b) Each Lender (as a Lender and in its capacity as a potential Hedge Counterparty) and each other Secured Party (by their acceptance of the
benefits of any Lien encumbering Collateral) hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Secured Parties:
(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Security Document (i) as
provided in Section 10.15 or any Security Document or (ii) subject to Section 10.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority Lenders;
112
(ii) to take any actions with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents
which may be necessary to perfect and maintain Acceptable Security Interests in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents;
(iii) to take any action in exigent circumstances as may be reasonably necessary to preserve any rights or privileges of the
Secured Parties under the Loan Documents or applicable Legal Requirements;
(iv) to subordinate any Lien on any property
granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.01(d) or 6.01(f); and
(v) to take any action requested by the Borrower having the effect of releasing any Collateral or any Subsidiary from its
Obligations under the Loan Documents to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 10.01.
(c) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time, the Secured Parties will confirm in writing the Administrative Agents
authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.09.
(d) Each Loan Party hereby
irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as such Loan Partys attorney-in-fact, with full authority to, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, act for such Loan Party and in the name of such Loan Party to,
in the Administrative Agents discretion upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the
Collateral without the signature of such Loan Party where permitted by law, (ii) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents, and chattel paper which are part of the Collateral, (iii) to ask, demand,
collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive, and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral, (iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the
Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent with respect to any of the Collateral and (v) if any Loan Party fails to
perform any covenant contained in this Agreement or the other Security Documents relating to the Collateral after the expiration of any applicable grace periods, the Administrative Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such covenant,
and such Loan Party shall pay for the expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith in accordance with Section 10.04. The power of attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
(e) The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Security Documents are solely to protect its interest
in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Beyond the safe custody thereof, the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party shall have no duty with respect to any Collateral in its possession or control (or
in the possession or control of any agent or bailee) or with respect to
113
any income thereon or the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the
custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property. None of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other
Secured Party shall be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee, broker or other
agent or bailee selected by Borrower or selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith.
9.10 No Other Duties, Etc.. Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Arranger and the Bookrunner listed on the cover page hereof shall not have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as
applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender.
9.11 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 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 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 and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.04 and 10.04) 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.
Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized
by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, 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 2.04 and 10.04.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan
of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or in any such proceeding.

Amendments, Etc.. Any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and any consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective if the same shall be in writing
and signed by the Majority Lenders and the Borrower (or by the Administrative Agent (with the prior written consent of the Majority Lenders) and the Borrower); provided that such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided; further, that (x) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing signed by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, (1) such amendment does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or (2) the Lenders shall have received at least five (5) Business
Days prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Majority Lenders stating that the Majority Lenders
object to such amendment, and (y) no amendment, waiver or consent shall:
(a) extend the scheduled date of termination of or increase
the stated amount of any Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment of any Lender terminated pursuant to the terms hereof) without the written consent of such Lender;

Lender hereunder without the written consent of such Lender;
(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any
Loan or any interest or fees payable hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (it being understood and agreed that any change in the definition of Total Leverage Ratio, or in the component
definitions thereof, shall not constitute a reduction of rate of interest or any interest or fees payable hereunder); provided, however, that only the consent of the Majority Facility Lenders under a Facility shall be required to waive
any obligation of the Borrower to pay default interest pursuant to Section 2.07(c) with respect to such Facility, including with respect to any amount payable thereunder or in connection therewith;
(d) (i) change Section 2.12 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written

from the order set forth in such Section in a manner that materially and adversely affects the Lenders under any Facility without the prior written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders under such Facility;
(e) change any provision of this Section, or the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Lenders or Majority

consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; or
115
(f) except as expressly permitted hereunder or under any Security Document, release all or any
substantial portion of the value of the guaranties provided by the Guarantors hereunder or all or any substantial portion of the Collateral without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood and agreed that this clause (f) shall
not be deemed to apply to any amendment, consent or waiver permitting any Asset Disposition or any additional Debt or other obligations to be guaranteed by the Guarantors or secured by any Collateral);
and provided, further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition
to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) Section 10.06(h) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent
of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by a SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or
disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder or under any other Loan Document (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders, all Lenders or a majority in interest of Lenders under any Facility
or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lender); provided that any such amendment, waiver or consent referred to in clause (a), (b) or (c) above
that, but for this sentence, would require the prior written consent of such Defaulting Lender, will continue to require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that any such amendment, waiver or consent requiring the
consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than any other Lender whose consent is so required shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

interest and fees in respect thereof to share in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit
facilities in any determination of the Majority Lenders and Majority Facility Lenders;
(iii) the Administrative Agent may,
without the consent of any Secured Party, (x) consent to a departure by any Loan Party from any covenant of such Loan Party set forth in this Agreement or any Security Document, or amend or otherwise modify this Agreement or any Secured
Document, to the extent such departure or amendment or
116
other modification is consistent with the authority of the Administrative Agent set forth in Section 5.09(e) or is determined by the Administrative Agent to be reasonably required to
give effect to the provisions of Section 5.09(d) or (y) amend or waive any provision in any Security Document, or consent to a departure by any Loan Party therefrom, to the extent the Administrative Agent determines that such
amendment, waiver or consent is necessary in order to eliminate any conflict between such provision and the terms of this Agreement; and
(iv) any amendment, waiver or consent of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that by its terms affects the rights or
duties under this Agreement or such other Loan Document of the Lenders of one or more Classes (but not the Lenders of any other Class), may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent
and the requisite number or percentage in interest of each affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time.

The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness
of any facsimile document or signature.
117
(c) Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Notices and other communications to the Lenders
hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion; provided that the foregoing shall not

discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.
Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the senders receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the
return receipt requested function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or

WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY,
INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.
In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the Agent Parties) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of
any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agents transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any
Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).
(e) Reliance by Agents and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices
(including telephonic borrowing notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of a Loan Party even if (i) such notices were not made

from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and their respective Related Parties from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice
purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.
10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise,
and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all
actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 7.02, 7.03 and 7.04 for the benefit of all the Lenders;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 7.05 (subject to the terms of Section 2.12), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and
filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Majority Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 7.02, 7.03 and 7.04 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth
in clauses (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.12, any Lender may, with the consent of the Majority Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Majority Lenders.
10.04 Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.08 with respect to the
matters covered therein, pay (a) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of a single counsel for
the Administrative Agent and, if the Arranger is not an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, a single counsel for the Arranger (and, as required, a single local or regulatory counsel in any applicable jurisdiction)) in connection with the
syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with
the transactions contemplated thereby) or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (b) all out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any Lender (including the fees, charges and
119
disbursements of any outside counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (i) in connection with this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (ii) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in
respect of such Loans. The foregoing costs and expenses under this Section 10.04 shall include all due diligence, search, filing, recording, title insurance, printing, reproduction, document delivery, travel, CUSIP, electronic platform,
communication costs and appraisal charges and fees and Taxes related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Arranger and Lenders (including, in connection with any workout or restructuring,
the cost of financial advisors and other outside experts retained by the Administrative Agent and the Arranger and the Lenders). All amounts due under this Section 10.04 shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days after demand
therefor. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments and repayment of all Obligations.
10.05
Indemnification. The Loan Parties shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Bookrunner and each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an Indemnitee)
against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, or related reasonable expenses (limited, in the case of expenses of counsel, to one counsel for
all Indemnitees taken as a whole in each relevant jurisdiction and, solely, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest between Indemnitees where the Indemnitees affected by such conflict inform the Borrower of such conflict, one
additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of affected Indemnitees similarly situated taken as a whole) in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, or
administration of this Agreement, any Loan Document, or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment or Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds
therefrom, (c) any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including the Administrative Agents own negligence), (d) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous
Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or
(e) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or
threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and regardless of whether brought or initiated by or on behalf of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (all the foregoing,
collectively, the Indemnified Liabilities); provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnitee, apply to losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, demands, actions, judgments, claims or suits
or related expenses to the extent (i) resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment),
(ii) arising from a material breach of the obligations of any Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties under the Loan Documents (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) or (iii) arising
out of or in connection with any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding that does not involve an act or omission of the Loan Parties or any of
120
their affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnitee against any other Indemnitee (other than the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or Bookrunner acting in its capacity as such). If an
Indemnitee shall be indemnified in respect of any Indemnified Liability and such Indemnified Liability is found by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence
of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties, or from a material breach of the obligations of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties under the Loan Documents, then such Indemnitee shall refund all amounts received by it under this paragraph in excess
of those to which it shall have been entitled under the terms of this Section 10.05.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, NO LOAN PARTY SHALL 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 LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, ANY LOAN OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREOF. NO INDEMNITEE 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 LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.
ALL AMOUNTS DUE UNDER THIS SECTION 10.05 SHALL BE
PAYABLE WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER DEMAND THEREFOR. THE AGREEMENTS IN THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE THE RESIGNATION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE REPLACEMENT OF ANY LENDER, THE TERMINATION OF THE COMMITMENTS AND THE REPAYMENT,
SATISFACTION OR DISCHARGE OF ALL THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS.
10.06 Successors and Assigns.
(a) Generally. The terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except as expressly permitted hereunder without the prior written
consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of
participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section or (iv) to an SPC in
accordance with the provisions of paragraph (h) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any
Person (other than the
121
parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated
hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b) Assignments by
Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it);
provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i) Minimum Amounts.
(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lenders Commitment under any Facility or
the Loans at the time owing to it under such Facility or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this
purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment
and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if Trade Date is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the
Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) or 7.01(e) has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);
provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group)
will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.
(ii)
Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except
that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis.
(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph
(b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:
(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) shall be required (1) for assignments to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, provided that no such
122
consent shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) or 7.01(e) shall have occurred and is continuing, and (2) for assignments to (x) any competitor
of the Borrower that has been identified in writing to the Lenders at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such assignment or (y) Tenaska Power Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, or any of its Affiliates that have
been identified in writing to the Lenders at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto
by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and
(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for assignments (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.
(iv) Assignment and
Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative
Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v) Defaulting Lenders. No assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person
that, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons.
Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and
recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section (and, if applicable, receipt by the Administrative Agent of an Administrative Questionnaire from an assignee Lender), from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption, (A) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto for all purposes and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and
Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (B) such assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption,
relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of such Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender
shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.09, 2.11, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment).
Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations
in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register.
123
In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder,
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 sub-participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower 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 (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment
liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Applicable
Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the
assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
(c)
Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its Applicable Lending Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (the Register). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and each of the Loan
Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information
regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to any Eligible Assignee (other than a Defaulting Lender or any Person to which an assignment at such time would require the consent of the Borrower under Section 10.06(b)(iii)(A)(2)) (each, a
Participant) in all or a portion of such Lenders rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lenders
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement. 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, waiver or other modification described in clause (y) of the second proviso to Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (e) of
this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.08, 2.09 and 2.11 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.05 as though it were a Lender,
124
provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as
an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participants interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents
(the Participant Register); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a
Participants interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitments, Loans 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.
(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 2.09 or 2.11 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless (i) the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the
Borrowers prior written consent or (ii) such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it
were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.09 or 2.11 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with
Sections 2.11(f) and 2.11(g) and be subject to the provisions of Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender.
(f)
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.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may repurchase Loans, and each Lender shall have the
right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its Loans to the Borrower; provided that:
(i) no
Default has occurred or is continuing or would result therefrom;
(ii) the Borrower has offered to repurchase Loans of all
Lenders under the applicable Facility on a pro rata basis pursuant to procedures approved by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent;
(iii) after giving effect thereto, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have at least $125,000,000 of Liquidity;
125
(iv) any such Loans assigned and transferred to the Borrower shall be
automatically and permanently cancelled upon the effectiveness of such assignment and transfer and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder (with the cancelled amount of such Loans being the par amount thereof for purposes
of this Agreement);
(v) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans of any Class repurchased by the Borrower pursuant to
this Section shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled amortization installments to be paid pursuant to Section 2.05(a) with respect to Loans of such Class ratably;
(vi) any gain from any such repurchase shall not be added back to Consolidated EBITDA; and
(vii) in connection with any such repurchase the Borrower shall represent that, as of the date of such repurchase, the Borrower
is not in possession of any information regarding the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Loans that, in each case, that (x) would reasonably be expected to be material to a decision by any Lender to sell, assign and transfer its Loans to the
Borrower and (y) has not been previously disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (other than, as to any Lender, due solely to such Lenders election not to receive any non-public information).
The Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect any cancelation of the Term Loans repurchased and cancelled
pursuant to this Section 10.06(g). Any payment made by the Borrower in connection with a repurchase permitted by this Section 10.06(g) shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 2.06 (except that, for
purposes of Section 2.06(c)(iv), such payments shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments of Borrowings under Section 2.06(b)), 2.08, 2.09 or 2.12. Failure by the Borrower to make any payment to a Lender
required to be made in consideration of a repurchase of Loans permitted by this Section 10.06(g) shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a). Each Lender shall, to the extent that its Loans
shall have been repurchased and assigned to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.06(g), relinquish its rights in respect thereof. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 10.06(g), the provisions of
Section 10.06 shall not apply to any repurchase of Loans pursuant to this Section 10.06(g).
(h) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a Granting Lender) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower (an SPC) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a
commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if a SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Each
party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, (ii) no
SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all
126
purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by a SPC
hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination
of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against,
such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but
without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a
confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.
10.07 Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined
below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates respective directors, officers, members, controlling persons, advisors, funding or financing sources, investors, partners, employees and
agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (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 requested by any regulatory authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements or
by any subpoena or similar legal process or in connection with any required public filings, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the protection or 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, pledgee under Section 10.06(f) or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of, pledgee under Section 10.06(f) or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or
(ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) to industry trade organizations information
with respect to the Loan Documents to the extent customary for inclusion in league table measurements 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 or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For purposes of this Section, Information means all information received from any Loan Party
relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party, provided that, in
the case of information received from a Loan Party after the Closing Date, 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.
127
Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material
non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities law.
All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the
course of administering, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective
securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in
accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.
10.08 Execution in
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Upon execution and delivery by any Guarantor of a counterpart hereto, such Guarantor shall become party hereto and a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally a party hereto. The
execution and delivery of a counterpart hereto by any Guarantor shall not require the consent of any other party hereto, and the rights and obligations hereunder of the other parties hereto shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the
addition of any Guarantor as a party hereto.
10.09 Survival of Representations; Termination. (a) All representations and
warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties
have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have
had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been made) hereunder shall remain
unpaid or unsatisfied.
(b) This Agreement and each other Loan Document, and the covenants and agreements set forth herein and therein,
and, in the case of any Security Document, all security interests and other Liens created thereunder, shall terminate upon the payment in full of all principal of and any accrued interest on any Loan and all fees and other amounts payable under this
Agreement and the termination or expiration of the Commitments; provided that the provisions of Sections 2.08, 2.09, 2.11, 10.04, 10.05, 10.07 and Article IX, and any other provision set forth
herein or therein that by its terms survives the termination of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, shall survive and remain in full force and effect.
128
10.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held
to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor
in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a
provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.10, if and to the extent that the enforceability
of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so
limited.
10.11 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan Party is made to the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or
required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or
otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred,
and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such
demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the
preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
10.12 Governing Law.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WILL BE REQUIRED
THEREBY.
10.13 Submission to Jurisdiction.
(a) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HERETO CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE
129
JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT WILL PREVENT ANY LENDER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE
ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISE ANY RIGHT UNDER THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS OR AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER PROPERTY OF ANY LOAN PARTY IN ANY OTHER FORUM IN WHICH JURISDICTION CAN BE ESTABLISHED. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY
OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR
OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY THE LAW OF SUCH STATE.

and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith and therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor, (b) the Credit Parties, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, have an arms length business

parties under the ABL Documents will be set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby irrevocably (i) consents to the subordination of
the Liens on the ABL Facility First Priority Collateral securing the Obligations on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement and
any documents relating thereto, in each case on behalf of such Lender and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Lender, (iii) agrees that, upon the execution and delivery thereof, such Lender will be bound by the

Administrative Agent as a result of any action taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 10.19 or in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby further irrevocably authorizes and directs
the Administrative Agent (x) to take such actions as shall be required to release Liens on the Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and (y) to enter into such amendments, supplements or other modifications
to the Intercreditor Agreement in connection with any extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement of any Obligations or any Permitted ABL Debt as are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to give effect thereto, in each case on behalf
of such Lender and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Lender. The Agent shall have the benefit of the provisions of Article IX with respect to all actions taken by it pursuant to this Section 10.19
or in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement to the full extent thereof.
(b) Notwithstanding anything herein or in any
other Loan Document to the contrary, the Lien granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document
are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and
control. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything herein or
132
in any other Loan Document to the contrary, all rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent (and the Secured Parties) with respect to the ABL Facility First Priority Collateral shall be
subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, and until the ABL Obligations Payment Date, any obligation of the Borrower and any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to the delivery or control of any ABL Facility
First Priority Collateral, the notation of any Lien on any certificate of title, bill of lading or other document, the giving of any notice to any bailee or other Person, the provision of voting rights or the obtaining of any consent of any Person,
in each case in connection with any ABL Facility First Priority Collateral, shall be deemed to be satisfied if the Borrower or such Guarantor, as applicable, complies with the requirements of the similar provision of the applicable ABL Document.
Until the ABL Obligations Payment Date, the delivery of any ABL Facility First Priority Collateral to the ABL Representative pursuant to the ABL Documents shall satisfy any delivery requirement hereunder or under any other Loan Document.
10.20 Administrative Agent Acting at Direction of Required Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan
Document (but subject to Section 9.03 and the other provisions of Article IX in all respects), in each instance in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document in which the Administrative Agent is granting a discretionary consent, giving a
request or accepting a discretionary request, or is otherwise exercising discretion or any other similar action by the Administrative Agent, in each case, in respect of any matter (including, without limitation, any instance where the Administrative
Agent is making a determination as to any matter being satisfactory, acceptable, or agreed to or by the Administrative Agent, is using or exercising its discretion, extending or shortening the time
period as to any deliverables or requirements hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or is making or receiving any request to or from the Loan Parities) or otherwise giving or granting discretionary consent under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document in any respect), such action, determination or otherwise shall at all times be exercised or made by the Administrative Agent solely at the direction, or with the consent, of the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing
(i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that is inconsistent with its policies in acting as an administrative agent under a syndicated credit agreement, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for
any action or failure to act in the absence of direction from the Required Lenders and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to engage in customary administrative actions and decisions with respect to the Loan Documents and the Loan
Parties without obtaining any direction of the Required Lenders with respect thereto. The obligation to obtain any such direction or consent, if required pursuant to this Section 10.20, shall be solely that of the Administrative Agent, and each
Loan Party shall be entitled to rely on any consent, acceptance, agreement, acknowledgement or other exercise of discretion, or any act or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, and may conclusively presume that the Administrative Agent shall
have obtained the direction or the consent, if any, required with respect thereto pursuant to this Section 10.20, and such consent, acceptance, agreement, acknowledgement or other exercise of discretion, or such action or failure to act, as the
case may be, shall inure to the benefit of the Loan Parties and shall be binding on the parties hereto. Nothing in this Section 10.20 shall affect the rights of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or its Affiliates in any capacity except as
Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents as expressly set forth herein.
133
10.21 Existing Credit Facility. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than Section 4.01(i) hereof), the Existing Credit Facility (and all Liens and Guarantees relating thereto) shall be deemed to have been discharged
and terminated on the Closing Date, and no Default or Event of Default shall occur on account of the Existing Credit Facility, it being understood that nothing in this Section 10.21 shall affect the condition precedent set forth in Section
4.01(i).

The Company reported operating income of $11.4 million, flat compared to the third quarter of 2013. Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $24.3 million for the third quarter of 2014 was up compared to $21.5
million for the same period last year. Year-to-date operating income and adjusted EBITDA(1) at September 30, 2014 were, respectively, $12.3 million and $45.6 million, compared to $16.2
million and $48.9 million for the same period in 2013.
John McNabb, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, Results matter, and we had
positive operating performance for the first nine months in our Canada, Professional Services and Utility T&D segments. In our Oil & Gas segment, we have strengthened the management team and we continue to transition the regional
business model into a project-based delivery model. We believe this model better aligns the work we undertake to our core skillsets and provides better control of our business.
We are also committed to strengthening our balance sheet through non-core asset sales to help maintain satisfactory liquidity for the work opportunities
we see ahead. We plan to focus our resources on our best performing service lines and market opportunities to generate better results, added McNabb.
Segment Operating Results
Oil & Gas
For the third quarter of 2014, the Oil & Gas segment reported contract revenue of $253.7 million, an increase of $93.5 million compared to the third
quarter of 2013. Operating income of $1.1 million was an improvement of $9.4 million from the third quarter of 2013. This improvement was primarily driven by the successful execution of a large diameter pipeline project and multiple mid-size
pipeline projects. Year-to-date operating results for the segment are a loss of $42.5 million on revenue of $665.3 million compared to a loss of $44.6 million on revenue of $463.1 million in the first nine months of 2013.

Utility T&D
For the third quarter of 2014, the Utility T&D segment reported break-even operating results on revenue of $93.6 million compared to operating income of
$1.9 million on revenue of $91.9 million in the third quarter of 2013. Peak loads during summer weather reduced access to certain project corridors. The segment continues to expand its geographic footprint in areas adjacent to Texas and along the
Atlantic seaboard and is transitioning to a more balanced customer base for transmission and distribution services. Year-to-date operating results are income of $7.8 million on revenue of $271.0 million compared to operating income of $18.8 million
on revenue of $306.2 million in the first nine months of 2013.
Canada
Canada reported third quarter operating income of $5.5 million, on revenue of $100.8 million compared to operating income of $11.1 million, on revenue of
$124.9 million in the third quarter of 2013. The decline in revenue and operating income is related to completion of a major project which generated revenue and income in the same period last year. Canada continues its focus on the construction and
maintenance opportunities in existing oil sands mining facilities. Year-to-date operating results are income of $30.2 million on revenue of $313.1 million compared to operating income of $25.9 million on revenue of $324.3 million in the first nine
months of 2013.
Professional Services
Revenue
generated by the Professional Services segment increased 9.2 percent to $113.2 million compared to $103.7 million in the third quarter of 2013. The revenue increase was attributable to greater demand for front end engineering and design services and
traditional pipeline engineering services. The segment reported operating income of $4.8 million, a decrease of $1.9 million compared to the third quarter of 2013. The decrease quarter-over-quarter was primarily driven by lower margins in downstream
engineering services and government services. Year-to-date operating results are income of $16.8 million on revenue of $331.9 million compared to operating income of $16.1 million on revenue of $298.1 million in the first nine months of 2013.
Backlog(2)
At September 30, 2014, total backlog was approximately $1.5 billion and 12 month backlog was approximately $0.8 billion. In comparison to
December 31, 2013, total backlog decreased approximately $462.7 million and 12 month backlog decreased approximately $225.6 million. These decreases are primarily related to the burn-off of backlog on certain significant Oil & Gas
projects and the continued work-off of MSAs, which are subject to renewal options in future years.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for items broadly
consisting of selected items which management does not consider representative of our ongoing operations and certain non-cash items of the Company. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as a supplemental performance measure for
comparing normalized operating results with corresponding historical periods and with the operational performance of other companies in our industry and for presentations made to analysts, investment banks and other members of the financial
community who use this information in order to make investment decisions about us. |
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing
operations is not a financial measurement recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations in addition to, and not
as an alternative for, net income, operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Because all companies do not use
identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations may be different from similarly titled measures of other companies.
(2) |
Backlog is anticipated contract revenue from uncompleted portions of existing contracts and contracts whose award is reasonably assured. Master Service Agreement (MSA) backlog is estimated for the remaining
term of the contract. MSA backlog is determined based on historical trends inherent in the MSAs, factoring in seasonal demand and projecting customer needs based on ongoing communications. |

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
Thanks, Mike. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. When we last
spoke on October 22, we stated that we would be making significant operational changes to improve our performance, especially in our Oil & Gas segment. And that process is underway.
First of all, I want to share my personal observations of where the Company stands and how I see the way forward. For the last three months, I have been
actively involved on the front lines of Willbros. Three of our four segments are performing well. In the first nine months of the year, those three segments generated approximately $916 million in revenue and $55 million in operating income.
Thats right at a 6% operating margin.
In the Oil & Gas segment, two projects and a structural and oversight issue in the regional
businesses have resulted in an operating loss of $42.5 million on revenues of $665.3 million for the nine-month period. Overall, the Company delivered $12.3 million in operating income on $1.6 billion in revenue for the first nine months of 2014.
To achieve success for our Company, we have four key objectives. First, we must dramatically improve our oil and gas operations. Our approach is to focus
on our core competencies, processes and people.
Our second objective is to improve margins in our Utility T&D and Professional Services segments.
While our overall margins in Professional Services have been flat through Q3 2014, the following illustrates our strategy for engineering and technology. First in upstream engineering. Expansion of our geographic footprint, investments in technology
and a headcount increase of over 18% all have enabled us to realize growth in operating margins over 2013, and we expect further gains in 2015.
Downstream engineering has delivered breakeven performance in a slow, downstream market. We have retained capacity through participation in upstream projects,
and as a result we are well-positioned for the anticipated opportunities and increased demand driven by lower energy prices for downstream engineering services during 2015.
We have positioned more than a third of our Professional Services revenue to long-term integrity-related services and technology. These recurring services
help moderate the impact of fluctuating oil prices.
Utility T&D continues with its strategy to expand its operating footprint. By establishing new
customer relationships with master service agreements to perform distribution construction and maintenance, we are now positioned to leverage that footprint to execute higher-margin transmission opportunities, setting the stage for overall margin
improvement.
Our third objective is to strengthen the balance sheet. We recently negotiated the refinancing of our debt in order to provide additional
liquidity for the strong markets we see in front of us. We will sell non-core assets to reduce our leverage, and provide additional financial flexibility. Debt reduction, combined with improved operations in oil and gas, as well as improved
performance in our other segments, should provide the free cash flow needed to strengthen our capital structure.
And our fourth objective is to
strengthen the application of our controls and operational processes to provide assurance that we will prevent negative surprises, which have continued to damage our results in the past. We will keep you updated on our progress to effect this
improved performance as events occur.
Going forward, any actions will be undertaken with discipline, and with objective of accretive results. Now Mike
Fournier will provide an operational update, including what we are doing to correct the performance of our Oil & Gas segment. Mike?
Mike FournierWillbros Group
IncPresident & COO
Thanks, John. Good morning, everyone. With regards to the Oil & Gas segment, we are taking
actions to produce a more focused and reliable model. As we work to achieve this, we will be very prudent and disciplined with respect to taking on new commitments.
Currently, we have capacity well in excess of commitments on the books. We have well-trained, experienced teams available for new work assignments.
We have taken the following actions across the entire Oil & Gas segment. Weve consolidated some of the businesses and reduced the number of
independent units to improve management focus. We have vetted the senior personnel. This resulted in certain personnel leaving the organization and some being reassigned. We have also created additional positions to bolster oversight and operational
control.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
We are transitioning to an enhanced project review cycle to ensure more in-depth reviews
can be accommodated and improve the timeliness of communication. To ensure that we build quality backlog consistent with our skill sets, we have integrated sales into our business units, increasing the business development staff and driving better
synergies between operations and sales.
Specific to the businesses in the Oil & Gas segment that were not meeting expectations, we have made the
following changes. We now have senior management and support staff assigned exclusively to oversee and direct our legacy US pipeline construction and maintenance business. This business provides large- and mid-sized pipeline construction, as well as
pipeline integrity and re-rating services. It has capabilities to execute up to 48-inch diameter pipe.
Due to the large demand in the Permian Basin for
mid-sized pipeline construction, we have transitioned our Odessa office from the regional business model to a project-based business model executing mid-sized pipeline projects. With the exception of project-specific offices, weve shut down
all remaining offices that made up the Southern Regional business unit. Again, we have provided dedicated senior management structure and support staff within this business unit to provide oversight and direction.
We have made an evaluation of the remaining regional businesses and put in place interim solutions where we found potential risks. We will be completing our
assessment this year with the intent to implement recommendations for permanent solutions in the first quarter of 2015.
So what I want you to take away
from my comments is that we will be more hands-on management in the business units, and segment management will be able to devote more of its time to each of the businesses, increasing oversight and ensuring we have the appropriate control of our
work. Now Van will discuss our financials.
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
Thanks, Mike, and good morning, everyone. In the fourth quarter of 2014, we identified two project errors in the estimated total revenues, costs and profits at
completion, which caused us to restate our previously issued financial statements for the first and second quarters of 2014.
The errors in the first
quarter of 2014 primarily related to the timing of previously recognized pretax losses associated with a significant pipeline construction project in our Oil & Gas segment. These losses were originally recognized in the second quarter of
2014, and were pushed back and recognized in the first quarter of 2014. The errors in the second quarter of 2014 primarily related to another significant pipeline construction project in the Northeast region of our Oil & Gas segment.
The correction of these errors included the reversal of previously recognized pretax income, and a recognition of additional pretax losses in the second
quarter of 2014. The accounting for the restatement of both of these errors resulted in additional pretax charges of $18 million in the first quarter of 2014, and $11.9 million in the second quarter of 2014.
Now a word on our third-quarter and year-to-date financial results. For the third quarter of 2014, we reported contract revenue of $559.7 million, which is an
increase of $80.6 million from the third quarter of 2013. Adjusted EBITDA of $24.3 million, which is an increase of $2.7 million from the third quarter of 2013. And operating income of $11.4 million, which is relatively flat from the third quarter
of 2013.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we reported contract revenue of approximately $1.6 billion, which is an increase of $190.2
million year over year. Adjusted EBITDA of $45.6 million, which is a decrease of $3.3 million year over year. And operating income of $12.3 million, which is a decrease of $3.9 million year over year.
As you recall from our press release dated October 21, 2014, we had initially estimated the operating income of approximately $26 million to $28 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Our final results for the nine-month period were approximately $13.7 million below the lower end of our range, which was primarily attributed to subsequent contract losses on a significant pipeline
construction project in the Northeast region of our Oil & Gas segment, as mentioned above, which were not yet known in October.
This
deterioration is primarily related to contractual disputes and subsequent increases in the estimated cost to complete. As of December 15, 2014, this project is substantially complete, and we are pursuing resolution of change orders and recovery
on claims with the client.
Moving to liquidity. On December 15, 2014, we finalized a negotiation of a new 2014 term loan facility with an aggregate
principal amount of $270 million. We expect that facility to be closed and funded later today.
Interest rates remain the same in comparison to our
existing term loan facility, and the new facility allows us to execute our plans to reduce debt through potential non-core asset sales of up to $125 million. In addition, our financial covenant requirements are much less restrictive.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
Starting in the fourth quarter of 2014 and through second quarter of 2015, our maximum
total leverage ratio covenant will be 4.5 to 1, and our minimum interest coverage ratio covenant will be 2 to 1. These new financial covenant requirements mirror our modified covenant requirements that were amended in November.
Proceeds under the new 2014 term loan facility will be used to refinance the loans outstanding under our existing term loan facility, pay fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the refinancing, and for general corporate purposes. We will be subject to a call premium of approximately 3% as a result of the early pay-down of our loans outstanding under our existing term loan facility. We believe
that this new term loan facility provides us with greater flexibility in meeting our future operating needs and our planned capital expenditures.
In
addition, we expect to make the final payment of our WAPCo settlement, which is due at the end of the year, with proceeds received through the new term loan facility. This will significantly increase our unused revolver availability by eliminating a
$32.7 million WAPCo reserve on our revolver availability. In addition, we expect further increases to our unused availability through the expiration of certain outstanding lines of credit at the end of the year, which will allow maximum use of our
revolver as we enter into 2015.
Our DSO at September 30, 2014 was approximately 67 days, which is a 10-day improvement from our June 30, 2014
results. This decrease is primarily related to collection improvements on one customer in our Canada segment, and the release of contract retention on three oil and gas projects that were completed in the third quarter. At September 30, 2014 we
had $48.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $20.7 million from June 30, 2014, and driven primarily through our decreased DSO levels previously discussed.
Current cash balance as of yesterday, December 15, 2014, was $58.4 million. Increases in cash and cash equivalents coupled with increased availability
under our revolver will contribute to our improved liquidity position as we move into 2015.
Now moving to taxes. Our effective tax rate for the third
quarter of 2014 was 75.9%, or a provision of approximately $2.7 million. This provision is primarily related to our Canadian earningswhich is subject to a corporate income tax rate of approximately 25%as well as Texas margins tax, and
changes in certain discrete items.
As previously discussed, due to net operating losses, we have a US valuation allowance of $62.8 million against our
tax assets. Barring any significant gains on potential asset sales, we do not anticipate paying or making a provision for any US federal taxes through 2015. Our effective tax rate should decrease as we generate taxable income in the US.
Now backlog. At September 30, 2014, our 12-month backlog was approximately $814 million, compared to approximately $963 million at June 30, 2014.
And our total backlog was approximately $1.5 billion, compared to approximately $1.7 billion at June 30, 2014. Our select prospect lists totals over $6 billion for projects to be conducted in 2015 and 2016. And we are currently tendering on
over $500 million of oil and gas projects which we expect to be awarded either to us or a competitor before the end of the first quarter of 2015.
Now
finally, guidance. We re-affirm our guidance to possible future non-core asset sales of $100 million to $125 million, and 2014 revenue of around $2 billion. As asset sales occur, we will apprise you of the impact any such sales might have on revenue
capacity. We will update you with 2015 guidance during our year-end call.
Now John will talk about the market outlook. John?
John McNabbWillbros Group IncChairman of the Board & CEO
Thank you, Van. We are benefiting from diversification in our business. This strategic positioning has us operating in relatively strong markets. We will
continue to see this diversification benefit us in a time of declining oil prices, as we are now better-positioned to manage through market fluctuations.
While some of our markets have seen an impact from falling oil prices, a significant portion of the opportunity we see is driven by natural gas projects. Our
oil and gas businesses that are dependent on gas prices, as well as our utility transmission and distribution business, should be minimally impacted.
We
are fortunate that our business in Canada is focused on construction and maintenance spend, which we expect to continue, although we anticipate additional cost discipline by our customers. We anticipate that our downstream businesses will benefit
from lower oil prices.
New gas export projects to Mexico and new LNG export facilities are increasing opportunities for us in our traditionally strong
natural gas pipeline market, as significant increases in production in the shale plays must make their way to growing markets. Our proprietary pipeline routing technology has differentiated us to win engineering FEED studies for certain of these
projects.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
This positions us well for follow-on engineering and construction activities, and
increasingly for EPC projects. Our direct awards for these types of front-end routing studies and FEED estimates has increased threefold during the past year.
Proposal activity in our downstream engineering business is at high levels. Low energy prices are driving close to $100 billion of new projects and expansions
in refining, fertilizer, LNG, petrochemical, tanks and terminals, between 2012 and 2019. We expect to participate in both engineering and construction in a meaningful way in this market in 2015.
We are combining our tanks and facilities business to leverage our successful participation in projects such as the Echo Project south of Houston, and
multiple other tank and terminal projects from Canada to the Gulf Coast. We see a strong market for the tanks and terminals business for the next several years.
Integrity-related marketsincluding pipelines, tanks and electrical projectscontinues to expand, now representing approximately 1/3 of our
professional services segment revenue. Over the past four years, we have seen growth in services related to pipeline integrity. This has allowed us to meet our objective to move more into stable markets to mitigate the impact of a downturn in
project activity. Our close integration with construction activities has provided opportunities for total project management of integrity work in the energy market, as well as a significant opportunity in our electric distribution construction
business.
Our UTD segment is successfully executing its transition strategy to develop customer relationships and presence from Texas to Virginia and
Maryland. With MSAs and customers in 10 states, we are positioned for more stable and improved results during 2015 in both transmission and distribution services. Our successful demonstration of our program management and GSI tools, coupled with our
distribution maintenance expertise, has led to the award of a portion of the strategic undergrounding program for a large Virginia utility.
In Canada,
backlog is slightly ahead of year-end 2013. While our business in Canada is oil price-sensitive, we believe the diversification within the business units and the mix of recurring maintenance and project work moderates the impact of declining oil
prices. Now, operator, we will move to Q&A.

John RogersD.A. Davidson & CompanyAnalyst
Hi. Good morning.
John McNabbWillbros Group
IncChairman of the Board & CEO
Good morning, John.
John RogersD.A. Davidson &
CompanyAnalyst
A couple of things. First of all, in terms of the guidance that Van mentioned, are there significant fees associated
with the one, the term loan, and the early redemption that well see in the fourth quarter? And as it relates to the for Mike as it relates to the restructuring and the closing of the offices, are there costs associated
with that, that well see in the fourth quarter?
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
Yes, John. First, on the term loan itself, we did have a call premium that was paid on the existing debt. That call premium was 3%. Its going to be about
$6.6 million that youll see hit below the operating level line in Q4. We also have in Q4 just to expand on that for you well have some debt extinguishment. Its non-cash, but well have some debt extinguishment
costs associated around the existing loan. And thats basically the unamortized OID that well see also in Q4. Both of the items that I just mentioned will be below the operating income line.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
Now, the new loan that we have, that we just completed, does not carry an OID around it.
However, on the asset future asset sales that we have, it will carry 2% around any of the future asset proceeds that we expect to have in the upcoming next several months.
John RogersD.A. Davidson &
CompanyAnalyst
Okay.
Mike FournierWillbros Group
IncPresident & COO
So with respect to the offices that were closing, John, yes, the bulk of those costs well
realize in Q4. We have some minimum costs carrying over to Q1, where weve still got a few locations to clean up.
John RogersD.A. Davidson &
CompanyAnalyst
Sorry, John, how much are those costs? Or Mike, sorry.
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
Yes, this is Van, John. Well have some leases that were taking a look at to determine the value that we may have to write off. But thats
probably the bulk of it. In additionand this is probably expanding a bit on your question, John, but I think its something that would be good for
John RogersD.A. Davidson &
CompanyAnalyst
Im just trying to get to what the total cost in restructuringhopefully, weve
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
Thats where I was going, John. If you look at the total what I would consider non-recurring charges and expenses in Q4, that would be associated around
severance costs, assets held for sale, and the restatement-related costs that weve incurred, were estimating that to be somewhere in the $5 million to $7 million category in Q4.
John Rogers D.A. Davidson & CompanyAnalyst
Okay. And then just on backlog, if I could ask two questions. One, the T&D business, if Im doing this calculation right, it looks like theres
about $50 million worth of work that came out of backlog, more than just what you burned off. Why was that? And then in terms of the $500 million in pipeline projects that youre pursuing, when should we see those awards you expect?
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
Yes. I think in terms of the $500 million, were currentlyas I mentioned in the prepared remarks, we are currently bidding some very significant oil
and gas projects, which will be awarded to either us or to one of our competitors. We expect to be seeing that sometime in the first quarter of 2015.
Mike FournierWillbros Group
IncPresident & COO
To qualify that a bit, that work is typicallythe large projects were seeing are either start
in Q3, Q4 of this year; in some cases, the start is in 2016. The activity level that were seeing that are immediate mobilizations in Q1, Q2, tend to be the smaller projects in the $20 million to $30 million range.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
John RogersD.A. Davidson & CompanyAnalyst
Okay, great. And then on the T&D?
Van WelchWillbros Group
IncEVP & CFO
On the T&D side, you know, we have a number of MSAs associated around T&D that are being worked off.
And the way we capture those MSA awards, we estimate it during the life of that particular MSA. So we dont replenish it until we renew them. Its almost a natural decrease associated around those until we get signed up on the extension of
that MSA.
John RogersD.A. Davidson & CompanyAnalyst
Yes. But Van, the backlog declined by $147 million sequentially, and revenue was a little less than $100 million. Thats more than just the burn-off.
Mike CollierWillbros Group IncSVP, Corporate Communications
John, this is Mike Collier. As you know, with those big MSAs, we adjust those according to what the historical performance of the MSA is and fresh input from
the owners on what their plans are going forward. So theres going to be some movement like that, thats not attributable to burn-off, when we calculate backlog going forward.
John RogersD.A. Davidson & CompanyAnalyst
Okay.
Van WelchWillbros Group
IncEVP & CFO
We update those every quarter, John, as you know, based on what we see, and what the best expectation and what
conversations were having with the client, in terms of that work going forward. So it does move around a bit.
John RogersD.A. Davidson &
CompanyAnalyst
Okay, thanks a lot. Ill get back in queue.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
Mike FournierWillbros Group IncPresident & COO
Sure, Marty; its Mike Fournier. Im going to try to speak to that. I think one of the points I raised in the discussion up front here was a focus on
sales, business development, and embedding that in the business units. That, in part, is a response to the sense that we werent able to capitalize on the opportunities that were out on the street six months ago, to the degree we should have,
and were paying the price for that now in terms of activity level in Q4 and what were looking at in Q1.
I think weve, in large part,
fixed that. We are today trying to increase staffing levels within our estimating groupso weve brought the opportunities in the door, and now were trying to align those with our skill set and estimating capacity to respond. The
nature of that work in oil and gas, its twofold. Were seeing opportunities that are EPC in nature that were responding to today, that are engineering opportunities and land acquisition opportunities in 2015, construction through
2016. We see some engineering-only studies that we indicated that are the amount of routing work were doing in this period of time is threefold from what we saw year ago.
So all that is pointing to, we think, strong markets on the traditional pipeline side of things. Our issue is bridging over into that Q3, Q4 period. And our
strategy thereand its a robust proposal streamis these smaller pipeline jobs. There may be only 20 miles in length, 16- to 24-inch in diameter, and dollar value in the $20 million to $25 million.
We see significant energy by the owners going into what we call pipeline maintenance and integrity. These tend to be smaller scopes, in the $8 million to $12
million range, that often involve re-rating of pipelines or re-testing of pipelines. And along with that, either additional metering, or in some cases, additional compression or pumping capacity.
Marty MalloyJohnson Rice & CompanyAnalyst
Thats helpful. And then, could you talk about the utility side and what youre seeing on there? And still, the acquisitions, I think, four years old
now, infrastructure. And there still seems to be a difficulty with profit margins and operating profitably. Can you approach what industry competitors are doing in terms of profitability, and when can we start to see improvements there?
Mike FournierWillbros Group IncPresident & COO
Marty, I think whats probably difficult to see in our numbers is what I would characterize as some pre-investment. Our strategy there has been to expand
our footprint on what we call the distribution side of the business. It tends to be lower-margin, but longer-term in nature. Johnny Priest and his folks in that group have been successful in a number ofgeographically, expanding their
footprint, often starting with what I characterize as pilot MSAs. And we see opportunity to get out of the pilot phase with these in 2015 and 2016, and have them mature into longer-term commitments.
I think you will see that reflected in the growth of the backlog number, where we have had a bit of a challenge in one of the business units that was very
focused in the last four years, previous to 2014, on build-out of substantial transmission capacity. And we have diversified that business unit in terms of its client base, but ultimately havent seen it regain activity levels consistent with
when they were in peak of construction during that expansion. I think we again are seeing somewe, in fact, have diversified the client base there.
We see an increase in transmission construction requirements in the Texas, Oklahoma areas in 2016. So we think that gives us an opportunity to increase that
ratio again of transmission work over distribution work. And transmission work generally is the higher-margin work, although its project nature and cyclical in nature.
Marty MalloyJohnson Rice &
CompanyAnalyst
Great, thank you.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
Andrew BuscagliaWillbros Group, Inc.Analyst
Hi, guys. This is Andrew Buscaglia on behalf of Jamie. Thanks for taking my question. Looking at your oil and gas segment, obviously that fared better than, at
least, we had expected. Just curious what your thoughts are in terms of how you guys thought of it in terms of your expectations. Was that more restructuring-related than anything in the quarter?
And then, you say theres probably a little bit more restructuring to go, but how confident are you in this as a baseline margin that you can grow off
from here? Or is there still some more bleeding, probably, to come?
John McNabbWillbros Group IncChairman of the Board & CEO
I think Im very confident in the people that we have in the oil and gas segment today. As I indicated, weve boiled down the number of business
units, in fact, cutting that in half. And within each of the business units, scaled back to what we would characterize as our core staff, and staff that we are comfortable with in terms of their capabilities, both in the field, on the right-of-way
or on the construction site, as well as adequate technical staff to put around there. I think what our challenge is, is regaining momentum in deploying those folks to the field.
But Im comfortable that where were taking work on, we do have the right people and we have adequate and strong processes in place to manage the
work. And I see a robust stream of bid opportunities, both in the mainline large-diameter of pipeline construction, the mid-size pipeline, and strong demand in the facilities. That demand is both in the back-end of 2015, and through our
participation in the EPC proposals, creates opportunity for booking backlog in early 2015 that wont be burned off until 2016.
Andrew BuscagliaWillbros Group,
Inc.Analyst
Okay then, with regards to some of the opportunities you guys see, obviously in the areas where you are impacted by the
price of oil. Just curious what your customers are saying and the commentary they haveif theyre hesitating or if youre anticipating any delays or anything like that. Just curious what theyre saying to you guys.
John McNabbWillbros Group IncChairman of the Board & CEO
Yes, well, what were seeing isof course were operating across North America. Up in Canada, with the larger oil sands mines and SAGD projects,
they have a 30-year, 40-year life, so they are cost-conscious during times of reduced oil prices. They tend to go out and bid work, so in some cases, giving us opportunity to look at work that would otherwise have been locked up for a couple of
years, potentially, under an MSA, but where clients are thinking they want to test the market again.
We are able to participate in that, and we see some
deferral slowdown of maintenance spend. But at the end of the day, theyve got to keep these plants up and running. And so they can defer some maintenance 3 to 6 months, but ultimately our experience is that, that work remains. I havent
seen the reaction that I saw, for example, in 2008, where people are shutting down projects, at least not in theIve seen some deferrals of decisions, in some cases. We see that as it contracts, to a certain agree, with the immediate oil
price. But again, theyre making investment decisions on a 30-year cycle.
We still see strong activity in the shale oil, shale gas plays. They are
characterized as behind on the infrastructure build-out. Certainly the infrastructure thats gas-related is carrying on. Although ultimately theres got to be an impact if theyre reducing exploration, our experience is, that lag time
is 6 to 9 months.
Andrew BuscagliaWillbros Group, Inc.Analyst
All right, thats helpful. Thanks, guys.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
Dan MannesAvondale PartnersAnalyst
Good morning. Can you guys hear me okay?
John McNabbWillbros Group
IncChairman of the Board & CEO
Youre fine.
Mike FournierWillbros Group
IncPresident & COO
Good morning, Dan.
Dan MannesAvondale
PartnersAnalyst
So the first thing, I want to go back over the [restatement] real quick. I think, Van, in your prepared comments, you
mentioned there was about another $13 million, $14 million of losses on the northeast project, on Allegheny Access. Was the entire loss originally you said was $24 million, and now is somewhere in the $30-millions was that all taken in
the second quarter?
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
Yes. The way the accounting rules work, Dan, whenever you open the books up associated around a restatement, you would push all adjustments associated around
that to where that error occurred. In this case, they would have all been pushed back into Q2.
Dan MannesAvondale
PartnersAnalyst
That includes the losses youve now picked up, even going into the fourth quarter. So to some degree, does this
shift help the third-quarter results out a little bit?
John McNabbWillbros Group IncChairman of the Board & CEO
Thats correct, Dan. Anything up until the date of filing, we would associate it around the northeast pipeline project we would have pushed back
into Q2.
Dan MannesAvondale PartnersAnalyst
Okay, got it. And then the same question on Canada. I hear exactly what youre saying in terms of the [forecast]. Can you remind us the breakdown in
activities in maintenance and capital? Do you [think] the capital side is probably where theres going to be a little more risk of a slowdown?
Mike FournierWillbros Group Inc
President & COO
Yes, Im not going to sit here and break that number down for you. What I can say is, we participate
in maintenance both up in the oil sands mining side of the industry there, as well as the pipeline integrity side of the business there. Thats two of the five business units. The other three are more project-based business units, and are
project-dependent.
Dan MannesAvondale PartnersAnalyst
Okay. And then my last question is on backlog. I certainly heard what you were saying, both in terms of the MSA roll-down in the bidding. But was there any
concerted effort during the last 90 days or so related to slowing down bidding activities, particularly if you were working under a restatement and working on the credit line? Or was there nothing purposeful as it relates to the backlog?

11
DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
Mike FournierWillbros Group IncPresident & COO
Yes, Dan, good question. There were some business units when I stepped in, in July, that I curtailed the bidding activity until we had an opportunity to vet
the management and supervision. And in some cases, we found that there wasnt a focused sales function. In large part, I would attribute it to lack of enough sales and BD resources at the time, and a disconnect between them and the operational
folks resulted in the funnel drying up.
But there certainly was a conscious decision in late June and July, where we slowed down in a couple of areas. We
are back bidding work in those areas. In some cases, what were choosing to do, for example, on our facility side, in the in both the US and Canada, is focus on larger projects, projects that are in the $15 million to $30 million range. Where
previously, we were chasing around $1 million, $2 million opportunities, and burning up a bunch of indirect costs. So we shifted gears somewhat there.
Van WelchWillbros Group
IncEVP & CFO
And Dan, this is Van. In terms of the credit line question, we didnt defer any estimates or projects
around the credit line. But having said that, we recognize going forward the opportunities we have. And we wanted to ensure that as we ended the year and were going into 2015, that we had that full use, that maximum use of our revolver
capability for that upcoming work.
Dan MannesAvondale PartnersAnalyst
Okay. And if I could follow up just lastly on the term loan. So the new term loanI assume youre going to draw down the entire $270 million, less
fees, less the current revolver, less the current term loan. But that should be a net cash increase in thewhat, $30 million, $40 million range? Plus, youll have full use of the revolver? It seems like you should have a pretty big cash
boost, even beyond just availability on the revolver now.
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
Yes, I think, Dan, good question. We took on the term loan with the idea that we had that WAPCo liability. In some ways, even though the WAPCo liability is not
considered debt, its debt-like. And were paying that off at the end of the year. By paying that off at the end of the year, were going to have that availability in our working capital line and our revolver, as I said, to get us
ready for the work season thats coming up in 2015. So Im very pleased with where we ended up and where our liquidity is as we start into the construction season in 2015.
Dan MannesAvondale PartnersAnalyst
But effectively, youre converting the WAPCo from a debt-lite to a debt.
Van WelchWillbros Group
IncEVP & CFO
Somewhat. Thats a way to look at it. But also, I think it does push that availability under our revolver
up. Under the previousor under our revolver, we had to reserve for that WAPCo liability in terms of the use of it for the revolver. Now we pay that off, weve got cash to pay that off, and now we have a working capital line thats
unencumbered by it.
Dan MannesAvondale PartnersAnalyst
Understood. Makes sense. Thank you.
Van WelchWillbros Group
IncEVP & CFO
Youre welcome.

[Stephen Folse], Stifel.
Stephen FolseStifel NicolausAnalyst
Hi, good morning.
John McNabbWillbros Group
IncChairman of the Board & CEO
Good morning.
Stephen FolseStifel
NicolausAnalyst
First question is building off of what a few other people have asked. But the profitability in the oil and gas
segment this quarter, was that driven by better performance across the board, or was it just mainline performance? Were the regional businesses profitable, or what was the breakdown there in the quarter?
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
Yes, I think if you look at thatthis is Vanits certainly unencumbered by the two project losses that created the restatementthe
pipeline project in the northeast and the other pipeline project in the oil and gas segment. So the results that you see in Q3 are minus any kind of losses. We were profitable in our pipeline group in Q3, minus those particular areas. So thats
somewhat the major drivers of the improvement, as you look at the Q3 results.
Stephen FolseStifel
NicolausAnalyst
Okay, thanks. And then on the $100 million to $125 million in asset sale target, are you seeing any kind of impact
from the lower oil price environment on potential sale multiples there, or the timing of when you expect to complete those sales?
Van WelchWillbros Group
IncEVP & CFO
Well, if you look at the $100 million to $125 million, its not all within our oil and gas segmentor
any of our other segments, for that regard. There could be some that may be impacted by the price of oil in the current environment. Were taking a hard look at that as we go forward. I still think the numbers that we have out there, the range
that we have out there is very achievable, that $100 million to $125 million worth of proceeds.
Stephen FolseStifel
NicolausAnalyst
Okay, great, thanks. And then turning to Canada, quickly. You reference pricing or cost discipline from your
customers. If we look at the direction of the price of oil, really, the substantial move did not happen until the fourth quarter. So should we expect further step-down from the margin level that you saw in the quarter, as oil prices continue to
trend down?
Mike FournierWillbros Group IncPresident & COO
Yes, I dont think its so much margin levels. I mean, we always look at it as the risk on backlog. And so weve got, I think, a base number of
projects in each of the business units in Canada that were comfortable with, going into 2015. I dont think were that far off of where we were this time last year, in terms of the backlog. And weve invested substantially in
the sales business development processes in Canada, as well as diversifying our businesses there.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
So its probably different from the typical E&C companys outlook on
Canada, in that we do have a substantial maintenance component to the business there. And there just isnt as many competitors chasing after the type of work we do there. So in that regard, its less concerning for us than some of the
contracts that are working in justwhat I call the heavy-industrial areas, in the oil sense.
Stephen FolseStifel
NicolausAnalyst
Okay, great, thanks. And last question, quickly. That MSA that you referenced in Virginia with the undergrounding,
was that in the third-quarter backlog or no?
Van WelchWillbros Group IncEVP & CFO
No.

Good morning, guys.
John McNabbWillbros Group
IncChairman of the Board & CEO
Good morning.
Mike ShliskyGlobal Hunter
SecuritiesAnalyst
I wanted to try to ask the low oil-price question a little bit differently than weve seen so far, since most
of my questions have been answered already. In a low oil-price environment, do you expect to see, basically, all of your projects on a day-to-day basis a bit more the cost of diesel and gasoline? And is there any affect on the upside to your
margins if you do see that in the next few quarters?
Mike FournierWillbros Group IncPresident & COO
I would say its marginal. Certainly on these large pipeline jobs, fuel and the number of hours were running our equipment is something that we do
stay on top of. Its an interesting question, and Im going to go and send some folks away to analyze that a bit. But theoretically, yes, we should see a drop there. My sense is, what youll see is, that factors in very quickly to the
cost base, with all contractors reacting in a similar fashion to reduce cost, and doesnt result in picking up much margin as a result of the lower fuel prices.
John McNabbWillbros Group
IncChairman of the Board & CEO
If I could speak just for a second about this oil price drop. As some of you may know, thats
been the business Ive been in for many years, the E&P side. And Im still involved in it, in anot a meaningful way anymore, now that Im CEO of Willbros. But Im looking at oil prices as something thatthis
happens. You typicallyjust like in 2008, nobody knew that was going to happen in 2008, and I dont think anybody felt like it was going to happen here.

DECEMBER 16, 2014 / 03:00PM GMT, WGQ3 2014 Willbros Group Inc Earnings Call
Theres a lot of geopolitical things at play here. And it wasnt just the US
which are calling now a North American dominance in total petroleum, including refined product. Because we are number one in the world now, if you look at it that way. But this will pass. I know from the budgeting process, a couple of the places
where I amthat people are going to continue to grow production this year. The good solid E&P companies are going to continue to grow production; theyre not going to be drilling for gas. They havent been doing that for a while.
And so the way were set up strategically with our four segments, gas is more important. But then youve got the LNG coming on. We badly have
an infrastructure issue with oil and gasliquids and gas. The pipeline business wont be affected. So interestingly enough, I like our position right now because of the way were structured. The spend is only going to increase on the
UTD side, from what we can tell in talking to our customers. I was withdinner with one of our large customers last week, and these folks were all going to increase their spend if that helps with just an overall macro on energy.
Mike ShliskyGlobal Hunter SecuritiesAnalyst
So if I can follow up on thatand that was great color, by the way, thank you so much. In a low gasoline-deal price environment, do you expect to see any
positive impact to your downstream work on the maintenance side going forward, as well? Is that something that you might be seeing more operating leverage on your current contracts?
Mike FournierWillbros Group IncPresident & COO
Yes. Well, we said earlier in the call that we see significant demand in 2015 for our downstream engineering services. And that, in large part, relates to
increasing terminal capacity. So I think the answer is yes.
Mike ShliskyGlobal Hunter SecuritiesAnalyst
Okay, great, thanks so much. Appreciate it.

progress in the process of realigning our Company and getting back to our core businesses, and starting to execute with results.
You saw the three
businesses for the first nine months, aside from oil and gas, and theyre right at 6%. Its not a promise for the future, but the promise I would make is that were going to continue to refine those businesses and increase our
operating margins. With oil and gas,the business that I know the most about, by the wayIm very comfortable with what Mikes doing, and others. And well turn that business back into something that were all going to
be very happy about. And those are my final comments. Thank you.
