On the earliest of (A) the date that all Available Tenors of U.S dollar LIBOR have permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by IBA or have been announced by the FCA pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative, (B) June 30, 2023 and (C) the Early Opt-in Effective Date in respect of a SOFR Early Opt-in, if the then-current Benchmark is LIBOR, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all

 

8


  purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

 

  (b)

(x) Upon (A) the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) a determination by Agent that neither of the alternatives under clause (1) of the definition of Benchmark Replacement are available, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document so long as Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders (and any such objection shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error); provided that solely in the event that the then-current Benchmark at the time of such Benchmark Transition Event is not a SOFR-based rate, the Benchmark Replacement therefor shall be determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of Benchmark Replacement unless Agent determines that neither of such alternative rates is available.

(y) On the Early Opt-in Effective Date in respect of an Other Rate Early Opt-in, the Benchmark Replacement will replace LIBOR for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

 

  (c)

At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, any Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower Agent’s receipt of notice from Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, such Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of Base Rate based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.

 

9


  (d)

In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

 

  (e)

Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Agent and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Agent pursuant to this Section 3.1.4, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.1.4.

 

  (f)

At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBOR), then Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (B) Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.”

 

  (k)

Section 5.5.3 of the Credit Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Agent. Unless Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Agent prior to the date on which any payment is due to Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due.

With respect to any payment that Agent makes for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder as to which Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that any of the following applies (such payment referred to as the “Rescindable Amount”) : (1) the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment; (2) Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by the Borrowers (whether or not then owed); or (3) Agent has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, in

 

10


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 Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

A notice of Agent to any Lender, Issuing Bank or any Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 5.5.3 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Section 13.2 of the Credit Agreement shall be amended by: (i) replacing the text “the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby” in clause (i) thereof with the following: “the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the Indemnitee’s reliance on any Communication executed using an Electronic Signature or in the form of an

 

13


  Electronic Record)” and (ii) inserting a new clause (z) to the end of clause (A) to proviso thereof as follows: “or (z) result from disputes solely between or among Indemnitees that do not involve or arise out of any act or omission of any of the Obligors or their Affiliates (other than any claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity as Agent, Arranger, Issuing Bank or similar role under any Credit Document, including such Indemnitee’s Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or other representatives acting in such capacity).”

 

  (u)

Section 13.9 of the Credit Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

13.9. Electronic Execution; Electronic Records. This Agreement, any Credit Document and any other Communication, including Communications required to be in writing, may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. Each of the Obligors and each of Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender (collectively, each a “Credit Party”) agrees that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on such Person to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person enforceable against such Person in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Agent and each of the Credit Parties may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither Agent (in its capacity as such or as provider of Swingline Loans) nor any Issuing Bank is under any obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by such Person pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent Agent (in its capacity as such or as provider of Swingline Loans) and/or such Issuing Bank has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, Agent and each of the Credit Parties shall be

 

14


entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Obligor and/or any Credit Party without further verification and regardless of the appearance or form of such Electronic Signature, and (b) upon the request of Agent or any Credit Party, any Communication executed using an Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart.

Neither Agent (in its capacity as such or as provider of Swingline Loans) nor any Issuing Bank shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with Agent’s (in its capacity as such or as provider of Swingline Loans) or any Issuing Bank’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means). Agent (in its capacity as such or as provider of Swingline Loans) and each Issuing Bank shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document by acting upon, any Communication or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

Each of the Obligors and each Credit Party hereby waives (i) any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement and/or any other Credit Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, and/or such other Credit Document, and (ii) any claim against Agent, each Credit Party and each Related Party for any liabilities arising solely from Agent’s and/or any Credit Party’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures, including any liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Loan Parties to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

 

  (v)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Agreement or in any other Credit Document, each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably waives its right to request or continue, and acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders shall no longer have any obligation to fund or continue, Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars.

 

  (w)

Exhibit G (Form of Borrowing Base Certificate) to the Credit Agreement shall be amended by deleting the references therein to “Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component.

4. Representations and Warranties. In order to induce Agent and Lenders to enter into this Consent and Amendment, each of the Obligors represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders as follows:

(a) all representations and warranties relating to such Obligor contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document are true and correct as of the date hereof as if made again on and as of the date hereof (except to the extent that such representations and warranties were expressly limited to another specific date, in which case they are true and correct as of such specific date);

(e) this Consent and Amendment has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Borrower party hereto; and

18


5. Reaffirmation. By its execution hereof, each Obligor expressly (a) consents hereto, (b) confirms and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Consent and Amendment, each Credit Document to which it is a party is, and the obligations of such Obligor contained in the Credit Agreement, if any, or in any other Credit Documents to which it is a party (in each case, as amended and modified by this Consent and Amendment), are and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, (c) affirms that each of the Liens and security interests granted by such Obligor in or pursuant to the Credit Documents are valid and subsisting and (d) agrees that this Consent and Amendment shall in no manner impair or otherwise adversely affect any of the Liens and security interests granted in or pursuant to the Credit Documents.

6. Entire Agreement. This Consent and Amendment, the Credit Agreement, and the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Relevant Documents”), set forth the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto in relation to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior negotiations and agreements among the parties relating to such subject matter. No promise, condition, representation or warranty, express or implied, not set forth in the Relevant Documents shall bind any party hereto, and no such party has relied on any such promise, condition, representation or warranty. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly stated in the Relevant Documents, no representations, warranties or commitments, express or implied, have been made by any party to any other party in relation to the subject matter hereof or thereof. None of the terms or conditions of this Consent and Amendment may be changed, modified, waived or canceled orally or otherwise, except in writing and in accordance with Section 13.1 of the Credit Agreement.

7. Full Force and Effect of Credit Agreement. This Consent and Amendment is a Credit Document. Except as expressly consented hereto, all terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and all other Credit Documents remain in full force and effect and nothing contained in this Consent and Amendment shall in any way impair the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or the Credit Documents, or alter, waive, annul, vary, affect, or impair any provisions, conditions, or covenants contained therein or any rights, powers, or remedies granted therein.

8. Counterparts. This Consent and Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of a signature page of this Consent and Amendment by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement. Any electronic signature, contract formation on an electronic platform and electronic record-keeping shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

9. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS CONSENT AND AMENDMENT AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS CONSENT AND AMENDMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Sections 13.13, 13.14 and 13.15 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by this reference.

 

19


10. Severability. If any provision of this Consent and Amendment is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Consent and Amendment and the other Credit 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 legal, valid and enforceable 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.

11. References. All references to the “Credit Agreement” in the Credit Documents shall mean the Credit Agreement giving effect to this Consent and Amendment.

12. Successors and Assigns. This Consent and Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Obligors, Agent and Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Obligor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Credit Documents, and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3 of the Credit Agreement.

13. Release of Liens on the Refinery Collateral. Effective as of the Second Effective Date and pursuant to Section 7.8 of the Credit Agreement, Agent releases, discharges and disclaims all of its Liens on the Refinery Collateral, and shall execute and deliver such releases of Liens (and hereby authorizes the Borrower Agent to file releases on Form UCC-3) as Borrower Agent may reasonably request to give effect to the foregoing.
