  2. Titles and Roles.

You hereby appoint (i) Barclays and DBSI to act, and Barclays and DBSI hereby agree to act, as joint lead arrangers and joint book-running managers for the Facilities (Barclays and DBSI together in such capacity, the “Lead Arrangers”) in connection with the proposed arrangement and subsequent syndication of the Facilities, (ii) DBNY to act, and DBNY hereby agrees to act, as sole administrative agent and collateral agent for the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, (iii) Barclays to act, and Barclays hereby agrees to act, as sole administrative agent for the Senior Bridge Facility and (iv) DBNY to act, and DBNY hereby agrees to act, as sole administrative agent for the Asset Sale Bridge Facility, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth or referred to in this Commitment Letter.

You also hereby appoint DBSI and Barclays to act, and DBSI and Barclays hereby agree to act, as joint lead arrangers and joint book-running managers for the Amendment (DBSI and Barclays together in such capacity, the “Amendment Lead Arrangers”, with DBSI having “left” placement in any and all marketing materials used in connection with the Amendment as the “Lead Left Arranger”) and, as such, the Amendment Lead Arrangers will use their commercially reasonable efforts to solicit the consents of the requisite existing Lenders (the “Required Consents”) under the Existing Credit Agreement (as defined in Exhibit E) (the “Existing Lenders”) in connection with the approval of the Amendment. It is understood and agreed that no guarantee or assurance can be given that the Required Consents will be obtained.

You agree that no other agents, co-agents or arrangers will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than that expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter referred to below) will be paid to any Lender in its capacity as such in connection with obtaining any commitment to the Facilities unless you and we shall so agree (with your agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that, at any time on or prior to the 15th business day following the date of this Commitment Letter, you may (in consultation with the Lead Arrangers) appoint one (1) additional joint lead arranger and joint bookrunner and unlimited co-managers or co-agents for each of the Facilities (the “Additional Agents”) and the aggregate economics payable to such Additional Agents for each of the Facilities shall not exceed 50% of the total economics which would otherwise be payable to the Agents pursuant to the Fee Letter (exclusive of any fees payable to an

All aspects of the syndication of the Facilities, including, without limitation, timing, potential syndicate members to be approached, titles, allocations and division of fees, shall be determined by (and coordinated exclusively through) the Lead Arrangers (in each case in consultation with you). 

We intend to commence our syndication efforts with respect to the Facilities promptly upon your execution and delivery to us of this Commitment Letter, and, until the earlier to occur of (i) a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) and (ii) 60 days after the Closing Date, you agree to use your commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Lead Arrangers in completing a syndication that is reasonably satisfactory to you and the Lead Arrangers. Such assistance shall include (i) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any syndication and marketing efforts benefit materially from your and, to the extent practical and appropriate, the Target’s existing lending and investment banking relationships, (ii) direct contact between senior management, representatives and advisors of you (and your using commercially reasonable efforts to cause, to the extent practical and appropriate, direct contact between senior management, representatives and advisors of the Target), on the one hand, and the proposed Lenders and rating agencies identified by the Lead Arrangers, on the other hand, at times and places reasonably requested by the Lead Arrangers, (iii) assistance by you (and your using commercially reasonable efforts to cause, to the extent practical and appropriate, the assistance by the Target) in the preparation of a Confidential Information Memorandum for each of the Facilities and other customary marketing materials and information reasonably deemed necessary by the Lead Arrangers to complete a successful syndication (collectively, the “Information Materials”) for delivery to potential syndicate members and participants, including, without limitation, estimates, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking financial information regarding the future performance of the Company, the Target and your and its respective subsidiaries (collectively, the “Projections”), (iv) the hosting, with the Lead Arrangers, of one or more meetings with prospective Lenders at reasonable times and locations to be agreed, (v) your using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, prior to the launch of the syndication of the Facilities and the marketing of the Senior Notes, public ratings (but no specific ratings) for each of the Facilities and the Senior Notes from each of Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and a public corporate credit rating (but no specific rating) of Endo Luxembourg Finance Company S.à.r.l. (the “Lux Borrower”) from S&P and a public corporate family rating (but no specific rating) of the Lux Borrower from Moody’s, and (vi) prior to the earlier of the 60th day following the Closing Date and the date a Successful Syndication has been achieved, your ensuring that there will not be any announcement, issuance, offering, placement or arrangement of any competing debt securities or commercial bank or other credit facilities (including refinancings and renewals of debt but excluding (i) the Facilities, (ii) the Senior Notes, (iii) any debt incurred in the ordinary course of business to the extent permitted by the Acquisition Agreement or the Credit Documentation, (iv) any tangible equity units and (v) any mandatorily convertible securities) by or on behalf of (x) the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or (y) using your commercially reasonable efforts, the Acquired Business, in each case that could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the syndication of the Facilities without the prior written consent of the Lead Arrangers (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be required to provide any information to the extent that the provision thereof would violate

 

-4-


any attorney-client privilege, law, rule or regulation, or any obligation of confidentiality binding you or any of your affiliates; provided that you shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the relevant consents under such obligations of confidentiality to allow for the provision of such information to the extent reasonably requested by the Lead Arrangers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter and without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, (i) none of the foregoing shall constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date and (ii) neither the commencement nor the completion of the syndication of the Facilities shall constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date.

You hereby acknowledge that (i) the Agents will make available Information (as defined below) and Projections, and the documentation relating to the Facilities referred to in the paragraph below, to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by transmitting such Information, Projections and documentation through Intralinks, SyndTrak Online, the internet, email or similar electronic transmission systems and (ii) certain of the Lenders may be “public side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Parent, the Target and their respective subsidiaries or securities). You agree, at the request of the Lead Arrangers and subject to the requirements of applicable law, to assist in the preparation of a version of the Confidential Information Memorandum and other marketing materials and presentations to be used in connection with the syndication of the Facilities, consisting exclusively of information and documentation that is either (a) publicly available or (b) not material with respect to the Parent, the Target or their respective subsidiaries or any of their respective securities for purposes of foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws (all such information and documentation being “Public Lender Information” and with any information and documentation that is not Public Lender Information being referred to herein as “Private Lender Information”).

It is understood that in connection with your assistance described above, customary authorization letters will be included in any such Confidential Information Memorandum that authorize the distribution thereof to prospective Lenders, represent that the additional version of the Confidential Information Memorandum does not include any material non-public information and include a customary 10b-5 representation. In addition, the Confidential Information Memorandum shall exculpate you, the Target and its affiliates and us with respect to any liability related to the use or misuse of the contents of such Confidential Information Memorandum or any related offering and marketing materials by the recipients thereof. You agree that such Confidential Information Memorandum or related offering and marketing materials to be disseminated by the Lead Arrangers to any prospective Lender in connection with the Facilities will be identified by you as either (A) containing Private Lender Information or (B) containing solely Public Lender Information. You acknowledge that the following documents will contain solely Public Lender Information (unless you notify us promptly that any such document contains Private Lender Information): (x) drafts and final versions of the Credit Documentation; (y) administrative materials prepared by the Lead Arrangers for prospective Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, allocation, if any, and funding and closing memoranda); and (z) notification of changes in the terms and conditions of the Facilities.

  4. Information.

You represent, warrant and covenant (with respect to Information relating to the Acquired Business, to the best of your knowledge) that (a) no written information which has been or is hereafter furnished by you or on your behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (other than the Projections, other forward looking information and information of a general economic or general industry nature) (such information being referred to herein collectively as the “Information”) taken as a whole contained (or, in the case of Information furnished after the date hereof, will contain), as of the time it was (or hereafter is) furnished, any material misstatement of fact or omitted (or will omit) as of such time to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein taken as a whole not misleading, in light of the circumstances under which they were (or hereafter are) made, and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to the Agents by you or any of your representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that you believe to be reasonable at the time made and at the time such Projections are made available to the Agents, it being recognized by the Agents that such Projections are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results, and that no assurance can be given that the projected results will be realized. You agree that if at any time prior to the earlier of (x) 60 days after the Closing Date and (y) the later of (i) the Successful Syndication of the Facilities and (ii) the Closing Date, you become aware that any of the representations and warranties in the preceding sentence would be incorrect (to the best of your knowledge as to Information relating to the Acquired Business) in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations and warranties were being made, at such time, then you will promptly advise the Agents and supplement (or use commercially reasonable efforts to supplement, in the case of Information relating to the Acquired Business) the Information and the Projections so that such representations and warranties will be (to the best of your knowledge as to Information relating to the Acquired Business) correct in all material respects under those circumstances (provided that no update of the Projections will be required under this paragraph after the Closing Date). The accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties, in and of itself, shall not be a condition to our obligations hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date. You understand that, in arranging and syndicating the Facilities, we will be entitled to use and rely on the Information and the Projections without responsibility for independent verification thereof and do not assume responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the Information or the Projections.

 

  5. Conditions Precedent.

Each Initial Lender’s commitment hereunder, and the agreement of each Agent to perform the services described herein, are subject solely to (a) (i) since December 31, 2014 to the date hereof, except as set forth in the disclosure schedule to the Acquisition Agreement delivered by the Target to the Parent and dated as of the date of the Acquisition Agreement, there has not been any event or occurrence of any condition that, individually or in the aggregate, has had a Target Material Adverse Effect (as defined below) and (ii) on the Closing Date there is no Target Material Adverse Effect, and (b) the conditions set forth in Exhibit E attached hereto (clauses (a) and (b), collectively, the “Funding Conditions”); it being understood that there are no conditions

For purposes hereof, “Target Material Adverse Effect” means (with capitalized terms used in this definition and not otherwise defined herein having the meanings assigned thereto in the Acquisition Agreement) any change, effect, event, occurrence, state of facts, circumstance or development that, individually or in the aggregate with all other changes, effects, events, occurrences, state of facts, circumstances or developments, (i) is or would reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the business, properties, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (ii) would reasonably be expected to prevent the consummation by the Target of the Transactions (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement); provided, however, that none of the following shall constitute, or be taken into account in determining whether there has been or would reasonably be expected to be, a Target Material Adverse Effect: (A) any change relating to the economy or securities markets in general, (B) any adverse change, effect, event, occurrence, state of facts, condition, circumstance or development affecting the generic pharmaceutical industry; (C) acts of war (whether or not declared), armed hostilities, sabotage, military actions or the escalation thereof (whether underway on the date hereof or hereafter commenced), and terrorism; (D) changes in or the conditions of financial or banking markets (including any disruption thereof and any decline in the price of any security or any market index); (E) changes in GAAP (or any underlying accounting principles or the interpretation of any of the foregoing) after the date hereof; (F) a flood, hurricane or other natural disaster; (G) any failure by the Target to meet any internal or published projections, forecasts or revenue or earnings predictions for any period ending on or after the date of this Agreement (provided, however, that the underlying causes of any such failure may be considered in determining whether there is a Target Material Adverse Effect); (H) changes in any Laws; (I) any action taken or omitted to be taken by, or at the written request of, Parent or any of its Affiliates after the date hereof and on or prior to the Closing Date; and (J) any action taken by the Target or any of its Subsidiaries as required by this Agreement (other than any action required to be taken by the Target or any of its Subsidiaries to comply with Section 6.1 of the Acquisition Agreement); except, in the case of clauses (A)-(F) and (H) above, to the extent that such change, effect, event, occurrence, state of facts, circumstance or development disproportionately affects the business, properties or assets of the Target as compared to other participants operating in the generic pharmaceutical industry, in which case, such change, effect, event, occurrence, state of facts, circumstance or development may constitute a Target Material Adverse Effect to such extent, and may be taken into account to such extent, in determining whether a Target Material Adverse Effect has occurred or would reasonably be expected to occur.

Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Commitment Letter, the Term Sheets, the Fee Letter or the Credit Documentation, or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Acquisition to the contrary, (i) the only representations and

 

-7-


warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date shall be (x) such of the representations made by the Acquired Business in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that you have (or your affiliate) has the right to terminate your (or your affiliate’s) obligations (or to refuse to consummate the Acquisition) under the Acquisition Agreement as a result of a breach of such representations (the “Acquisition Agreement Representations”) and (y) the Specified Representations (as defined below) and (ii) the terms of the Credit Documentation shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth herein and in the Term Sheets are satisfied (it being understood that (I) to the extent any Collateral referred to in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities Term Sheet may not be perfected by (A) the filing of a UCC or Personal Property Security Act (or equivalent statute in the applicable Canadian provinces) financing statement, or (B) taking delivery and possession of a stock certificate of each Borrower and each direct and indirect holding company thereof (other than the Parent and the Company), as well as each material direct or indirect wholly-owned domestic (or Canadian) restricted subsidiary of the Lux Borrower (provided that such certificates of the Target and its material wholly-owned domestic (or Canadian) restricted subsidiaries will be required to be delivered on the Closing Date only to the extent received from Target after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so), if the perfection of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Collateral may not be accomplished prior to the Closing Date after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so and without undue burden and expense, then the perfection of the security interest in such Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities on the Closing Date but, instead, may be accomplished within a period after the Closing Date reasonably acceptable to us and (II) nothing in preceding clause (ii) shall be construed to limit the applicability of the individual conditions expressly set forth herein or in the Term Sheets). For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties of the Borrowers and Guarantors set forth in the Term Sheets relating to legal existence, corporate power and authority relating to the entering into and performance of the Credit Documentation, the due authorization, execution, delivery, validity and enforceability of the Credit Documentation, no conflicts with or violations of organizational documents (as it relates to the entry into the Credit Documentation), margin regulations, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, solvency of the Parent, the Borrowers, the Target and their respective subsidiaries on a consolidated basis as of the Closing Date (after giving pro forma effect to the Transaction), the PATRIOT Act/“know your customer” laws, the use of the proceeds of the Facilities not violating FCPA or OFAC/anti-terrorism laws (to the extent applicable) and, subject to subclause (I) of the last parenthetical appearing in the preceding sentence (and subject to permitted liens), the creation, validity, perfection and priority of the security interests granted in the proposed Collateral.

You acknowledge that we may receive a benefit, including without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any of such counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on account of their relationship with us including, without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto.

You further agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, each Additional Agent and each other agent or co-agent (if any) designated by the Lead Arrangers with respect to the Facilities (together with any Additional Agent, each, a “Co-Agent”), each Initial Lender, each Lender which is a Co-Agent or an affiliate thereof (each, a “Co-Agent Lender”) and all of their respective affiliates and each director, officer, employee, representative and advisor of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries), claims, losses, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be incurred by or asserted against or involve any Agent, any Co-Agent, any Initial Lender, any Co-Agent Lender or any other such Indemnified Person as a result of or arising out of or in any way related to or resulting from the Transaction, this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter and, upon demand, to pay and reimburse each Agent, each Co-Agent, each Initial Lender, each Co-Agent Lender and each other Indemnified Person for any reasonable legal expenses of one firm of counsel for all such Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest, where the Indemnified Person affected by such conflict informs the Company of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnified Person) and, if necessary, of a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole or other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, suit, proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) or claim (whether or not any Agent, any Co-Agent, any Initial Lender, any Co-Agent Lender or any other such Indemnified Person is a party to any action or proceeding out of which any such expenses arise or such matter is initiated by a third party or by you or any of your affiliates); provided, however, that you shall not have to

 

-9-


indemnify any Indemnified Person against any loss, claim, damage, expense or liability to the extent same resulted from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), (y) a material breach in bad faith by the relevant Indemnified Person (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) of the express contractual obligations of such Indemnified Person under this Commitment Letter pursuant to a claim made by you or (z) any disputes among the Indemnified Parties (other than in their capacities as Agents or Co-Agents) and not arising from any act or omission by the Company or any of its affiliates.

No Agent nor any other Indemnified Person shall be responsible or liable to you or any other person or entity for (i) any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems (including IntraLinks, Syndtrak Online or email) other than as a result of such person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision or (ii) any indirect, special, exemplary, incidental, punitive or consequential damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) which may be alleged as a result of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the Transaction even if advised of the possibility thereof.

You agree that, without each Agent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Company will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnification could be sought under the indemnification provision of this Commitment Letter (whether or not any Agent or any other Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such claim, action or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding and does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

In addition, the Company agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Persons against any loss incurred by any Indemnified Person as a result of any judgment or order being given or made for any amount due hereunder and such judgment or order being expressed and paid in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than United States dollars and as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the United States dollar amount is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order, and (ii) the rate of exchange at which such Indemnified Person is able to purchase United States dollars with the amount of the Judgment Currency actually received by such Indemnified Person. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Company and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term “rate of exchange” shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, the relevant currency.

The indemnification and contribution provisions contained in this Commitment Letter are in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to an Indemnified Person. Solely for purposes of enforcing the provisions of this Section 7, the Company hereby consents to personal jurisdiction, service of process and venue in any court in which any claim or proceeding that is subject to this Section 7 is brought against any Indemnified Person.

Letter of Credit outstandings will reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Each Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall acquire an irrevocable and unconditional pro rata participation in all Letter of Credit outstandings.

 

7. Swingline Loans: A portion of the Revolving Credit Facility in an amount not to exceed $100.0 million (as such amount may be increased from time to time, but not above $125.0 million, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and swing line lender) shall be available prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date for swingline loans (the “Swingline Loans” and, together with the Revolving Loans, the B Term Loans and any Incremental Term Loans (as defined below), the “Loans”) to be made by the Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Swingline Lender”) on same-day notice. Any Swingline Loans will reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Each Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall acquire an irrevocable and unconditional pro rata participation in each Swingline Loan.

Uncommitted Incremental Facilities: The Borrowers will have the right to solicit existing Lenders and Additional Lenders (as defined below) to provide (x) incremental commitments to the Revolving Credit Facility (each, an “Incremental Revolving Facility”) and/or (y) incremental commitments consisting of one or more increases to the B-2 Term Loan Facility and/or one or more new tranches of term loans to be made available under the Senior Secured Credit Documentation (hereinafter the “Incremental Term Facilities” and, together with the Incremental Revolving Facilities, the “Incremental Facilities”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed (x) $1,000.0 million plus (y) if the Secured Leverage Ratio (to be defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles), at the time of incurrence of such Incremental Facility (or in the case of Incremental Term Facilities used to finance a permitted acquisition and to the extent lenders participating in such Incremental Term Facility agree, at the time of the execution of the acquisition agreement related

 

B-4


to such permitted acquisition) and after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00 (assuming for purposes of such calculation that all commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility are fully drawn and without netting cash proceeds of any Incremental Facilities or Incremental Equivalent Debt), an unlimited amount, on terms agreed by the Lux Borrower and the Lender or Lenders providing the respective Incremental Facility; provided that (i) no default or event of default exists or would exist after giving effect thereto; provided that, in the case of Incremental Term Facilities used to finance a permitted acquisition and to the extent the Lenders participating in such Incremental Term Facility agree, this clause (i) shall be tested at the time of the execution of the acquisition agreement related to such permitted acquisition, (ii) all of the representations and warranties contained in the Senior Secured Credit Documentation shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, in all respects, if qualified by materiality); provided that, in the case of Incremental Term Facilities used to finance a permitted acquisition and to the extent the Lenders participating in such Incremental Term Facility agree, this clause (ii) shall be subject to customary “Sungard” limitations, (iii) the borrowers for each Incremental Facility shall be the Borrowers, (iv) any such Incremental Facility shall benefit from the same guarantees as, and be secured on a pari passu basis (or, in the case of Incremental Term Facilities only, a junior basis; provided that such junior ranking tranche of Incremental Loans shall be established as a separate tranche of B Term Loans and shall be subject to the terms of a second lien intercreditor agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) by the same Collateral (as defined below) securing, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, (v) the Company is in pro forma compliance with the Financial Covenants (as defined below) as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements are available (determined after giving effect to the full utilization of the commitments provided under such Incremental Facility), (vi) in the case of an Incremental Revolving Facility, such Incremental Revolving Facility shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Credit Facility (and be deemed added to, and made a part of, the Revolving Credit Facility), and (vii) in the case of loans to be made under an Incremental Term Loan Facility (each, an “Incremental Term Loan”), such Incremental Term Loans shall be subject to the same terms as the B-2 Term Loans (including voluntary and mandatory prepayment provisions), except that, unless such Incremental Term Loans are made a part of the B-2 Term Loan Facility (in which case all terms thereof shall be identical to those of the B-2 Term Loan Facility), (1) during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date, in the event that the interest

 

B-5


rate margins for any Incremental Term Facility are higher than the interest rate margins for the B-2 Term Loan Facility by more than 50 basis points, then the interest rate margins for the B-2 Term Loan Facility (and not any other B Term Loan Facility) shall be increased to the extent necessary so that such interest rate margins are equal to the interest rate margins for such Incremental Term Facility minus 50 basis points; provided, that in determining the interest rate margins applicable to any Incremental Term Facility and the B-2 Term Loan Facility (A) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under the B-2 Term Loan Facility or any Incremental Term Facility in the initial primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID or upfront fees being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity), (B) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to any of the Lead Arrangers (or their respective affiliates) in connection with the B-2 Term Loan Facility or to one or more arrangers or bookrunners (or their affiliates) of any Incremental Term Facility shall be excluded, (2) the final stated maturity date for such Incremental Term Loans may be identical to or later (but not earlier) than the final stated maturity date applicable to the B-2 Term Loans, (3) the average weighted life to maturity of such Incremental Term Loans is no shorter than the average weighted life to maturity applicable to the then outstanding B-2 Term Loans and (4) other terms may differ if reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any upfront fees and arrangement fees for any Incremental Facility will be negotiated with the applicable Lenders at the time of any request to provide commitments pursuant to such Incremental Facility.

 

The Lux Borrower may seek commitments in respect of the Incremental Facilities from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders or investors who will become Lenders in connection therewith (the “Additional Lenders”); provided that the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Facility, the Swingline Lender and each issuer of a Letter of Credit shall have consent rights (not to be unreasonably withheld) with respect to such Additional Lender, if the consent of such person would be required under the heading “Assignments and Participations” for an assignment of Loans or commitments, as applicable, to such Additional Lender. Nothing contained herein or in the Commitment Letter constitutes, or shall be deemed to constitute, a commitment with respect to any Incremental Facility.

 

B-6


Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Senior Notes Issuers may issue pari passu or junior secured or unsecured notes or may incur junior secured term loans (any such notes or term loans, collectively, “Incremental Equivalent Debt”) in lieu of loans under the Incremental Facilities (so long as all conditions to incurring Incremental Facilities would have been satisfied, to the extent applicable), except that neither the B-1 Term Loan Facility, the B-2 Term Loan Facility nor the Asset Sale Bridge Facility shall be subject to a “most favored nation” pricing adjustment as a result of the issuance of such Incremental Equivalent Debt; provided that (i) any such Incremental Equivalent Debt (and any permitted refinancing thereof or of any Incremental Facilities, or of any previous such permitted refinancing) shall be deemed to increase at all times the amount of the Company’s “secured indebtedness” by the outstanding principal amount of such Incremental Equivalent Debt (or permitted refinancing as described above) for the purposes of calculating compliance with the Secured Leverage Ratio incurrence test described above (for purposes of incurring Incremental Facilities and Incremental Equivalent Debt), (ii) any such Incremental Equivalent Debt shall be guaranteed solely by the Guarantors and, if secured, secured solely by Collateral pursuant to security documents substantially the same as the Security Agreements (as defined below), (iii) any such Incremental Equivalent Debt shall be subject to intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (iv) any such Incremental Equivalent Debt shall not mature prior to the date that is 91 days after the latest final maturity date of the B Term Loans and revolving credit commitments existing at the time of such incurrence and (v) the terms and conditions of such Incremental Equivalent Debt (excluding pricing, fees, prepayment or redemption premiums and terms) are, when taken as a whole, (x) not materially more favorable to the lenders or holders providing such Incremental Equivalent Debt than those applicable to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities when taken as a whole (other than covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the latest maturity date of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities at the time of incurrence of such Indebtedness) or (y) otherwise on current market terms for such type of indebtedness.
Refinancing Facilities: The Senior Secured Credit Documentation will permit the Borrowers to refinance loans under the B Term Loan Facilities, commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility or any Incremental Facility from time to time, in whole or part, with one or more new term facilities (each, a “Refinancing Term Facility”), new revolving credit facilities (each, a “Refinancing Revolving Facility”; the Refinancing Term Facilities and the Refinancing Revolving Facilities are collectively referred to as “Refinancing Facilities”) or additional series of senior

 

B-7


unsecured notes or loans or senior secured notes or loans that will be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with the Facilities (and such notes or loans, “Refinancing Notes”), respectively, under the Senior Secured Credit Documentation with the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the institutions providing such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Facility or Refinancing Notes; provided that (i) customary intercreditor agreements in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers are entered into, (ii) any Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Notes does not mature prior to the maturity date of the loans or commitments under the Facilities being so refinanced, or in the case of any Refinancing Term Facility or Refinancing Notes, have a shorter weighted average life than the loans under the B Term Loan Facility being so refinanced, (iii) any Refinancing Facilities or Refinancing Notes that are to be second lien facilities will be secured on a subordinated basis to the Facilities and to the obligations under any senior secured notes, (iv) the principal amount of any Refinancing Facilities or Refinancing Notes shall not exceed the amount of the Facilities being so refinanced (other than fees and expenses incurred in connection with such Refinancing Facilities or such Refinancing Notes) and (v) the other terms and conditions of such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Facility or Refinancing Notes (excluding pricing and optional prepayment terms) are substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) are not materially more favorable to the lenders providing such Refinancing Facilities or Refinancing Notes than, those applicable to the Facilities being refinanced (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to the period after the latest final maturity date of the Facility being refinanced)
Guaranties: Each direct and indirect Material Subsidiary (to be defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles, and in any event including (x) each Borrower with respect to the direct obligations of each other Borrower under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and (y) the Company and each of its subsidiaries which is a guarantor under the Existing Credit Agreement) (each, a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”) shall be required to provide an unconditional guaranty (collectively, the “Guaranties”) of (i) all amounts owing under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, (ii) the obligations of the Borrowers and their respective restricted subsidiaries under interest rate and/or foreign currency swaps or similar agreements with a Lender or its affiliates (the “Secured Hedging Agreements”) and (iii) the obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantors arising in connection with banking services, including (a) credit cards for commercial customers, (b) stored value cards and (c) treasury management services, in each case provided by a Lender or its

Such Guaranties shall be in form and substance consistent with the Documentation Principles and shall be guarantees of payment and not of collection.
Security:

All amounts owing under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the Secured Hedging Agreements and Banking Services Obligations (and all obligations under the Guaranties) will be secured by (x) a first priority perfected security interest (or hypothec, as applicable) in all stock, other equity interests and promissory notes owned by the Borrowers and the Guarantors, and (y) a first priority perfected security interest (or hypothec, as applicable) in all other tangible and intangible assets (including, without limitation, receivables, inventory, equipment, contract rights, securities, patents, trademarks, other intellectual property, cash, bank and securities deposit accounts, real estate and leasehold interests) owned by the Borrowers and the Guarantors (all of the foregoing, the “Collateral”); provided that the Collateral shall be subject to exclusions and limitations consistent with the Documentation Principles.

The creation and perfection of Collateral consisting of assets of non-U.S. Loan Parties shall be subject to Agreed Security Principles consistent with the Documentation Principles.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the requirements of the preceding paragraphs of this “Security” section shall be, as of the Closing Date, subject to the Funds Certain Provisions.

 

CAM Sharing Requirements: To the extent requested by the Lead Arrangers, the Senior Secured Credit Documentation shall contain customary “CAM” provisions requiring, upon the occurrence of (x) a bankruptcy or insolvency Event of Default (as defined below) with respect to any Borrower or (y) any acceleration of the Loans, then each Lender under all or certain tranches having different Borrowers shall purchase and sell undivided participating interests in the outstanding Loans and other extensions of credit under each such tranche in such amounts so that each such Lender shall share pro rata in all outstanding Loans and other extensions of credit of each Borrower under each such tranche.

 

B-9

Optional Commitment Reductions: The unutilized portion of the total commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility may, upon three business days’ notice, be reduced or terminated by the Borrowers without penalty in amounts that are an integral multiple of $5.0 million and not less than $10.0 million.
Voluntary Prepayments: Voluntary prepayments may be made at any time on three business days’ notice in the case of LIBOR Loans, or one business days’ notice in the case of Base Rate Loans (or same day notice in the case of Swingline Loans), without premium or penalty (except as otherwise

 

B-10


provided under the heading “Prepayment Fee” below), in minimum principal amounts to be mutually agreed; provided that voluntary prepayments of LIBOR Loans made on a date other than the last day of an interest period applicable thereto shall be subject to customary breakage costs. Each voluntary prepayment of Revolving Loans shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the Revolving Loans then outstanding, and each voluntary prepayment of B Term Loans shall be applied as directed by the Lux Borrower.
Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions:

Mandatory prepayments of B Term Loans shall be required from (a) 100% (with a step down to 50% based upon the achievement and maintenance of a Total Leverage Ratio of less than or equal to 4.00:1.00) of the proceeds (net of taxes and costs and expenses in connection with the sale) from asset sales by the Company and its restricted subsidiaries (including sales of equity interests of any subsidiary of the Company but subject to the mandatory prepayment of Asset Sale Bridge Loans set forth below with respect to the AMS Asset Sales (as defined below)) that are not otherwise specifically permitted pursuant to the Senior Secured Credit Documentation in excess of $50.0 million in any fiscal year of the Company, but subject to certain ordinary course and reinvestment exceptions consistent with the Documentation Principles, (b) 100% (with a step down to 50% based upon the achievement and maintenance of a Total Leverage Ratio of less than or equal to 4.00:1.00) of the proceeds of insurance recovery and condemnation events of the Company or any restricted subsidiary having fair market value immediately prior to such event greater than $50.0 million, but subject to certain ordinary course and reinvestment exceptions consistent with the Documentation Principles, (c) 100% of the net proceeds from issuances or incurrences of debt (with appropriate exceptions consistent with the Documentation Principles, including in any event debt permitted to be incurred pursuant to the Senior Secured Credit Documentation (other than “credit agreement refinancing indebtedness”) and any refinancing of the Senior Bridge Facility with an issuance of permanent Senior Notes) by the Company and its restricted subsidiaries and (d) in each fiscal year following the first full fiscal year of the Company to occur after the Closing Date, 50% of Excess Cash Flow (as defined in Annex B-I) for the prior fiscal year with a step down to 25% upon the achievement and maintenance of a Total Leverage Ratio of less than or equal to 4.50:1.00 and a further step down to 0% upon the achievement and maintenance of a Total Leverage Ratio of less than or equal to 4.00:1.00.

 

All mandatory prepayments of B Term Loans made pursuant to clauses (a) through (c), inclusive, above will, subject to the provisions

 

B-11


described under the heading “Waivable Prepayments” below, be applied (i) first to prepay the next eight scheduled principal payments in respect of each of the B-1 Term Loans and the B-2 Term Loans on a pro rata basis in the direct order of maturity and (ii) second to prepay the remaining scheduled principal payments in respect of the B-1 Term Loans and the B-2 Term Loans on a pro rata basis, except that all prepayments resulting from the incurrence of any refinancing indebtedness permitted by the Senior Secured Credit Documentation shall be applied to prepay any remaining scheduled principal payments in respect of the applicable B Term Loans on a pro rata basis. If at any time the outstandings pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility (including Letter of Credit outstandings and Swingline Loans) exceed the aggregate commitments with respect thereto, prepayments of Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans (and/or the cash collateralization of Letters of Credit) shall be required in an amount equal to such excess.

 

With respect to the proceeds received from the sale of American Medical Systems, LLC and its related businesses (the “AMS Asset Sales”), mandatory prepayments of Asset Sale Bridge Loans shall be required as set forth in Exhibit D with respect to 100% of such proceeds (net of taxes and costs and expenses in connection with the sale) prior to any of the B Term Loans until the Asset Sale Bridge Loans are repaid in full.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Senior Secured Credit Documentation will provide that, in the event that any indebtedness, including any Incremental Equivalent Debt, that is secured on an equal priority basis (but without regard to the control of remedies) with the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, shall be issued or incurred, such indebtedness may share no more than ratably in any prepayments required by the foregoing provisions of clauses (a) through (c), inclusive, above.

Waivable Prepayments: Lenders holding B Term Loans shall have rights to waive their share of voluntary prepayments and mandatory prepayments (excluding scheduled amortizations) of B Term Loans as otherwise required above on terms consistent with the Documentation Principles (in which case the amounts so waived shall be retained by the Borrowers).
Prepayment Fee: The occurrence of any Repricing Event (as defined below) prior to the date occurring six months after the Closing Date will require payment of a fee (the “Prepayment Fee”) in an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the B-1 Term Loans or B-2 Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event.

 

B-12


As used herein, the term “Repricing Event” shall mean the prepayment or refinancing of any of B Term Loans with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any indebtedness incurred for the primary purpose (as reasonably determined by the Borrowers) of lowering the “effective yield” of the applicable B Term Loans. A Repricing Event shall also include any amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Documentation that reduces the “effective yield” of such B Term Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any prepayment or repayment of any B Term Loans in connection with a change of control or an acquisition not permitted by the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Documentation constitute a Repricing Event.
Interest Rates:

At the Borrowers’ option U.S. dollar denominated Loans may be maintained from time to time as (x) Base Rate Loans, which shall bear interest at the Base Rate (or, in the case of the B Term Loans only, if greater at any time, the Base Rate Floor (as defined below)) in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin (as defined below) or (y) LIBOR Loans, which shall bear interest at LIBOR (adjusted for statutory reserve requirements) as determined by the Administrative Agent for the respective interest period (or, in the case of the B Term Loans only, if greater at any time, the LIBOR Floor (as defined below)), plus the Applicable Margin; provided that all Swingline Loans shall bear interest based upon the Base Rate. Interest rates with respect to Revolving Loans and other extensions of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility denominated in permitted currencies other than U.S. dollars shall be determined in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles and the Applicable Margins contained herein.

 

Applicable Margin” shall mean a percentage per annum equal to (i) in the case of B-1 Term Loans (A) maintained as Base Rate Loans, 1.75%, and (B) maintained as LIBOR Loans, 2.75%; (ii) in the case of B-2 Term Loans (A) maintained as Base Rate Loans, 2.25%, and (B) maintained as LIBOR Loans, 3.25%; (iii) in the case of Revolving Loans (A) maintained as Base Rate Loans, 1.50%, and (B) maintained as LIBOR Loans, 2.50%; (v) in the case of Swingline Loans, 1.50%; and (iv) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans incurred pursuant to an Incremental Term Loan Facility (other than any such loans which are added to (and form part of) the B-2 Term Loan Facility, all of which shall have the same Applicable Margins as provided in the preceding clause (ii), as the same may be adjusted as provided below), such rates per annum as may be agreed to among the Borrower and the Lender(s) providing such Incremental Term Loans; provided that (1)

 

B-13


   the “Applicable Margin” for B-2 Term Loans shall be subject to adjustment as provided in clause (vii)(1) of the proviso appearing in the first sentence of the section hereof entitled “Uncommitted Incremental Facilities”); and (2) the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans shall be subject to quarterly step-downs (but, in any event, not commencing until the delivery of the Company’s financial statements in respect of its fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2015) in accordance with the following table:

Such interest shall be payable on demand.
Yield Protection:

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities shall include customary protective provisions (consistent with the Documentation Principles) for such matters as capital adequacy, increased costs, reserves, funding losses, illegality and withholding taxes (it being understood that, for purposes of determining increased costs arising in connection with a change in law, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Basel III, and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated under, or issued in connection with, either of the foregoing shall be deemed to have been introduced or adopted after the date of the Senior Secured Credit Documentation, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued); provided that amount shall only be payable by the Borrowers to the extent the applicable lender is imposing such charges on other similarly situated borrowers under comparable syndicated credit facilities.

B-21


consent, in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld)).

Assignments will be by novation and will not be required to be pro rata among the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

B-22


the Senior Secured Credit Facilities shall be required for certain types of amendments and waivers; provided that if any of the matters described in clause (a) or (b) above is agreed to by the Required Lenders, the Borrowers shall have the right to substitute any non-consenting Lender by having its Loans and commitments assigned, at par, to one or more other institutions, subject to the assignment provisions described above, subject to repayment in full of all obligations of the Borrowers owed to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender together with the payment by the Borrower to each non-consenting Lender of the applicable Prepayment Fee (if such assignment or repayment occurs prior to the date occurring six months after the Closing Date.

 

The Senior Secured Credit Documentation will contain customary “amend and extend” provisions consistent with the Documentation Principles pursuant to which the Borrowers may extend commitments and/or outstandings with only the consent of the respective consenting Lenders; provided that it is understood that no existing Lender will have any obligation to commit to any such extension.

Defaulting Lenders: If any Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility becomes a Defaulting Lender (to be defined on terms consistent with the Documentation Principles) at any time, then, so long as no default or event of default then exists, the exposure of such Defaulting Lender with respect to Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit will automatically be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility pro rata in accordance with their commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility up to an amount such that the aggregate credit exposure of such non-Defaulting Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility does not exceed its commitment thereunder. In the event such reallocation does not fully cover the exposure of such Defaulting Lender (or such reallocation is not then permitted), the Swingline Lender or applicable issuing Lender may require the applicable Borrower(s) to repay or cash collateralize, as applicable, such “uncovered” exposure in respect of the Swingline Loans or Letter of Credit outstandings, as the case may be, and will have no obligation to make new Swingline Loans or issue new Letters of Credit, as applicable, to the extent such Swingline Loans or Letter of Credit outstandings, as applicable, would exceed the commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility.
Indemnification; Expenses: The Senior Secured Credit Documentation will contain customary indemnities for the Administrative Agent, the Lead Bank Arrangers, the Lenders and their respective affiliates’ employees, directors, officers and agents and consistent with the Documentation Principles.
