Optional Prepayments and

Commitment Reductions:

The Credit Facilities may be prepaid at any time in whole or in part without premium or penalty, except that any prepayment of LIBOR advances other than at the end of the applicable interest periods therefor shall be made with reimbursement for any funding losses and redeployment costs of the Lenders resulting therefrom. Each such prepayment of the Term Loan Facilities shall be applied ratably to the principal repayment installments of the Term Loan Facilities on a pro rata basis. The unutilized portion of any commitment under the Credit Facilities may be reduced or terminated by the Borrower at any time without penalty.

 

Annex I-5


Security:

The Borrower and each of the Guarantors shall grant to the Administrative Agent (for its benefit and for the benefit of the Lenders) valid and perfected first priority (subject to certain customary exceptions to be set forth in the loan documentation) liens and security interests in all of the following (collectively, the “Collateral”):

 

    (a)   all present and future shares of capital stock of (or other ownership or profit interests in) each of its present and future subsidiaries (limited, in the case of each foreign subsidiary, to 65% of the voting stock of each such entity); provided that interests in certain joint ventures and non-wholly owned subsidiaries which cannot be pledged without the consent of one or more third-parties will not be required to be pledged;
    (b)   all present and future intercompany debt of the Borrower and each other Guarantor;
    (c)   all of the present and future property and assets, real and personal, of the Borrower and each Guarantor, including, but not limited to, equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, certain owned real estate, deposit and bank accounts, investment property, license rights, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, other intellectual property and other general intangibles, insurance proceeds and instruments; and
    (d)   all proceeds and products of the property and assets described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above.

 

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Collateral shall exclude the following: (i) fee owned real properties with a value of less than an amount to be agreed (with any required mortgages being permitted to be delivered post-closing) and all leasehold interests, (ii) motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificates of title, letter of credit rights and commercial tort claims, (iii) pledges and security interests prohibited by law or prohibited by agreements containing anti-assignment clauses not overridden by the UCC or other applicable law, (iv) assets specifically requiring perfection through control agreements, (v) assets as to which granting or perfecting such security interest would violate any applicable law, regulatory requirement or contract, and (vi) those assets as to which the Agent and the Borrower reasonably determine that the costs of obtaining a security interest in such assets are excessive in relation to the benefits to the Lenders of the security afforded thereby.

 

Annex I-6


 

The Collateral shall ratably secure the relevant party’s obligations in respect of the Credit Facilities, any interest rate swap or other hedging arrangement, treasury management agreement or similar agreement with a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender.

 

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the proceeds from any disposition of Collateral during the existence of an event of default or in connection with a dissolution, liquidation or other similar proceeding shall be applied to repay (and/or cash collateralize) the Revolving Credit Facility and Letters of Credit (and any interest rate swap or other hedging arrangement, treasury management agreement or similar agreement with a Lender or affiliate of a Lender) before such proceeds are applied to repay the Term Loan Facilities.
