RUPEE CREDIT AGREEMENT
     THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of the 26th day of May, 2006, by and among Euronet Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as Borrower Agent, Euronet Services India Pvt Ltd, a company organized under the laws of India (the “Borrower”), and Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association acting through its branch in Mumbai, India (“Bank of America”), as agent (in such capacity, the “Agent”) and as a lender (and together with the other financial institutions from time to time party hereto, as lenders, each a “Lender” and collectively the “Lenders”).
     WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Agent arrange a three-year revolving line of credit with the Lenders in the amount of Ten Million US Dollars ($10,000,000); and
     WHEREAS, in order to induce the Agent and the Lenders to make such loans, the Borrower Agent has agreed to provide a guarantee of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder; and
     WHEREAS, the Lenders have agreed to make such loans available to the Borrower upon the terms and conditions set forth herein;
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1
DEFINITIONS
     Certain terms used in this Agreement are defined herein. Certain other terms are defined in Exhibit 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
ARTICLE 2
REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT
     2.1 Agreement to Lend.
          (a) Revolving Loans. Each Lender severally, but not jointly, agrees, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make loans (each a “Revolving Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period beginning on the Closing Date through the first Business Day before the Revolving Credit Termination Date, in such amounts as the Borrower shall request as provided in Section 4.8 hereof not to exceed in aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitment and, to the extent such Lender is an L/C Issuer, to treat each draw under any Letter of Credit as a Revolving Loan as provided in Section 2.4 below; provided, however, that no Lender shall have any obligation to make a requested Revolving Loan if, (A) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (B) after the making of such Revolving Loan, (I) the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all Revolving Loans, together with the aggregate undrawn amount under all outstanding Letters of Credit, would exceed the

 


 

Revolving Credit Commitments, or (II) a Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing. The Borrower may terminate or reduce the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment at any time by giving notice to the Lender as provided in Section 4.8 below, provided that any partial reduction shall be in an amount of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) or the equivalent amount in the Funding Currency. Revolving Loans shall be used to pay existing intercompany indebtedness, for working capital and for other corporate or business purposes.
          (b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.3, if the aggregate principal indebtedness of the Borrower under the Revolving Notes, plus the aggregate undrawn amount under all outstanding Letters of Credit, at any time exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower shall immediately, without demand or notice, pay principal under the Revolving Notes so that the aggregate principal amount outstanding thereunder, plus the aggregate undrawn amount under all outstanding Letters of Credit, does not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, that in the case of Letters of Credit, such amount shall be held as cash collateral for undrawn Letters of Credit, and shall promptly be returned to the Borrower if Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such overadvance expire undrawn.
     2.2 Revolving Note. The Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by and repaid in accordance with Revolving Notes executed by the Borrower in favor of each Lender, in the form of Exhibit 2.2 hereto, dated as of the Closing Date or, with respect to Revolving Notes issued to a financial institution that becomes a Lender subsequent to the Closing Date, the date such financial institution becomes a Lender, and each Revolving Note shall be payable to the order of the applicable Lender. Such Notes and any and all amendments, extensions, modifications, renewals, reaffirmations, restatements, replacements and substitutions thereof and therefor executed with respect to the Revolving Loans are herein referred to as the “Revolving Notes”. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Notes outstanding from time to time at a rate or rates determined as provided in Section 4.3 below. The Revolving Notes shall be paid in full on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.
     2.3 Increase of the Commitment.
          (a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to the Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower Agent, on behalf of the Borrower may on a one-time basis, request an increase in the Commitments by an amount not exceeding $15,000,000; provided that:
     (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000; provided that, the aggregate of (x) such increase plus (y) any concurrent increase in the “Commitment” under the US Credit Agreement, plus (z) any concurrent increase in the “Commitment” under the Euro Credit Agreement shall be a minimum of $5,000,000; and
     (ii) after giving effect to any such increase, the aggregate of (x) the Commitment under this Agreement, plus (y) the “Commitment” under the US

- 2 -


 

Credit Agreement, plus (z) the “Commitment” under the Euro Credit Agreement, will not exceed $65,000,000.
At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower Agent (in consultation with the Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders).
          (b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata share of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment.
          (c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The Agent shall notify the Borrower Agent and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the Agent and the L/C Issuer (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower Agent may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and its counsel.
          (d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Commitment is increased in accordance with this Section, the Agent and the Borrower Agent shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.
          (e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of each Obligor dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a responsible officer of such Obligor (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Obligor approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article 7 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (B) no Default exists. The Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Loans ratable with any revised Pro Rata shares arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitment under this Section.
          (f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 4.5 or 13.9 to the contrary.
     2.4 The Letter of Credit Commitment.

- 3 -


 

          (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.4, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit:
     (I) the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all Revolving Loans, together with the aggregate undrawn amount under all outstanding Letters of Credit, shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments; and
     (II) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of all L/C Obligations shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment.
Each request by the Borrower for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.
          (b) The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if:
               (i) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or
               (ii) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Lenders have approved such expiry date.
          (c) The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:
               (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any applicable law to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder)

- 4 -


 

not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it;
               (ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer;
               (iii) except as otherwise agreed by the Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $50,000;
               (iv) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than the Funding Currency;
               (v) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or
               (vi) a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund exists or any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to such Lender.
          (d) The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.
          (e) The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.
          (f) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Agent in Article 12 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in Article 12 included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.
     2.5 Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit.
          (a) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a responsible officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Mumbai, India time at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date

- 5 -


 

or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Agent may require.
          (b) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article 6 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit.
          (c) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
     2.6 Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.
          (a) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Agent thereof. Not later than 4:00 p.m., Mumbai time on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the

- 6 -


 

unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Prime Lending Rate Loan to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified herein for the principal amount of Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than the delivery of a Loan Request). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Agent pursuant to this Section 2.6(a) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.
          (b) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.6(a) make funds available to the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Agent’s principal office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m., Mumbai time on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.6(c), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Prime Lending Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer.
          (c) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a borrowing of Prime Lending Rate Loans as provided in Section 2.6(a) because the conditions set forth in Article 6 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.6.
          (d) Until each Lender funds its Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.6 to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.
          (e) Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.6, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (iii) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.6 is subject to the conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Loan Request). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment

made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.
          (f) If any Lender fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.6 by the time specified in Section 2.6(b), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Prime Lending Rate and a rate determined by the L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.6(f) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
     2.7 Repayment of Participations.
          (a) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.6, if the Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Agent), the Agent will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Agent.
          (b) If any payment received by the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.6(a) is required to be returned under any circumstances (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Lending Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
     2.8 Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:
          (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;
          (b) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such

- 8 -


 

transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;
          (c) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;
          (d) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or
          (e) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower.
The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
     2.9 Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender, the Borrower Agent and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Agent, any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, advisers and agents (collectively the “Related Parties”) nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower pursuing such rights and remedies as they may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the

- 9 -


 

L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in Sections 2.8(a) through 2.8(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.
     2.10 Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Agent, (i) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then aggregate outstanding amount of all L/C Obligations. For purposes of this Section 2.10, “Cash Collateralize” shall mean to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances (“Cash Collateral”) pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and the L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in a blocked Cash Collateral Account at Bank of America.
     2.11 Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit.
     2.12 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender fees with respect to the Letters of Credit in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 5.1(c) (the “Letter of Credit Fee”). Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (ii) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower Agent, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

     2.13 Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.
     2.14 Letters of Credit Issued for Affiliates. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, an Affiliate of the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any such Affiliates inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Affiliates.
     2.15 Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.
     2.16 Indemnity. The Borrower shall immediately on demand indemnify the L/C Issuer against any cost, loss or liability incurred by the L/C Issuer (other than by reason of the L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) in acting as L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower.
ARTICLE 3

          (c) In the event the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all Revolving Loans plus the aggregate undrawn amount under all outstanding Letters of Credit (calculated in accordance with this Section 3.3) exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Agent. The Borrower (and the Borrower Agent on behalf of the Borrower) shall not be entitled to make any further Loan Requests (other than with respect to continuations of outstanding Loans) and the Lenders will have no obligation to make any Loans (other than the continuations of outstanding Loans), for so long as such condition is continuing.
          (d) Without limiting Section 3.3(c), in the event the amount by which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all Revolving Loans plus the aggregate undrawn amount under all outstanding Letters of Credit (calculated in accordance with this Section 3.3) exceeds the Revolving Commitments, is greater than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), the Borrower shall, not later than the next Business Day following receipt of the notice provided in accordance with Section 3.3(b), and without any further demand or notice, pay principal under its Revolving Notes in the amount by which such amount exceeds One Million Dollars ($1,000,000).

          (a) If any sum due from an Obligor under the Loan Documents (a “Sum”), or any order, judgment or award given or made in relation to a Sum, has to be converted from the currency (the “First Currency”) in which that Sum is payable into another currency (the “Second Currency”) for the purpose of:
               (i) making or filing a claim or proof against that Obligor; or
               (ii) obtaining or enforcing an order, judgment or award in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings,
that Obligor shall as an independent obligation, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each of the Agent or any Lender to whom that Sum is due against any cost, loss or liability arising out of or as a result of the conversion including any discrepancy between (A) the rate of exchange used to convert that Sum from the First Currency into the Second Currency and (B) the rate or rates of exchange available to that person at the time of its receipt of that Sum; provided, however that the above indemnity with respect

- 12 -


 

to the Agent or any Lender, shall not apply to the extent that any cost, loss or liability arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or such Lender in making such currency conversion.
          (b) Each Obligor waives any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay any amount under the Loan Documents in a currency or currency unit other than that in which it is expressed to be payable.

          (a) Subject to paragraphs (b) through (e) below, the Base Currency is the currency of account and payment for any sum due from an Obligor under any Loan Document.
          (b) A repayment of a Loan or Sum or a part of a Loan or Sum shall be made in the currency in which that Loan or Sum is denominated on its due date.

               (i) any reference in the Loan Documents to, and any obligations arising under the Loan Documents in, the currency of that country shall be translated into, or paid in, the currency or currency unit of that country designated by the Agent; and
               (ii) any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official rate of exchange recognized by the central bank of such country for the conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or down by the Agent.

     4.2 Loan Disbursement Procedures.
          (a) Loans shall be disbursed by the Agent upon request by the Borrower or the Borrower Agent on behalf of the Borrower from time to time on or after the Closing Date, in such amounts as provided in Section 4.7 below, subject to the limitations on the Lenders’ obligations to make Loans as set forth in Section 2.1 above.

          (b) Each Loan Request shall be delivered to the Agent in writing or by telex or facsimile transmission in the manner provided in Section 13.1 hereof, or as otherwise agreed by the Agent, in the manner and within the time periods set forth in Section 4.8. The Agent may rely and act upon any such Loan Request which is received from the Borrower Agent or any other person believed by the Agent in good faith to be authorized to make such request on behalf of the Borrower. The Agent shall record in its records all Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and all payments made on the Loans.
     4.3 Interest.
          (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the Pro Rata benefit of the Lenders interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan at the following rates per annum:
               (i) Floating Rate Option. During any period while such Loan is a Prime Lending Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal to the Prime Lending Rate (as in effect from time to time) plus the Applicable Margin, in effect from time to time. The rate of interest applicable to Prime Lending Rate Loans shall change as and when the Prime Lending Rate changes.
               (ii) Fixed Rate Option. The Borrower may elect, in accordance with Section 4.8 hereof, to have a specified portion of the Revolving Loan bear interest from time to time at a fixed rate per annum equal to the MIBOR Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin in effect on the Disbursement Date, the date of conversion or the date of continuation, as applicable, as adjusted as provided in this Agreement.

- 14 -


 

Margin as provided herein) with respect to any MIBOR Rate Loan shall not change during any Interest Period.
          (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.3(a) above, the Borrower shall pay interest at the Default Rate on any principal of any Loan and on any interest or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Revolving Notes (i) that is not paid in full when due (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), for the period commencing on and including the due date thereof until the same is paid in full and (ii) upon and during the continuance of any failure to comply with or violation of any of the financial covenants set forth in Article 9 of this Agreement as shown on and as of the last day of a fiscal quarter as reflected on any Compliance Certificate.
Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable on the last day of each calendar month; provided that interest payable at the Default Rate shall be payable, to the extent applicable, from time to time on demand of the Agent.
          (c) The Agent shall, as part of its interest statements, notify the Borrower Agent of any change in the Prime Lending Rate or the MIBOR Rates in effect and shall, on the request of the Borrower Agent at any time, notify the Borrower Agent of the MIBOR Rates then in effect.
          (d) In the event that the Borrower or the Borrower Agent on behalf of the Borrower fails to select the type of Loan or the duration of any Interest Period for any MIBOR Rate Loan within the time period and otherwise as provided in Section 4.8, such Loan (if outstanding as a MIBOR Rate Loan) will be automatically converted into a Prime Lending Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan or (if outstanding as a Prime Lending Rate Loan) will remain as, or will be made as, a Prime Lending Rate Loan.
          (e) The amount of all interest and fees hereunder shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty five (365) days. Interest on any Loan shall be computed for the period commencing on and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan is paid in full; provided, however, that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Loan.

The Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty, subject to giving the Agent prior notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.8 hereof, provided that (i) each such partial prepayment shall be in the aggregate principal amount of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or the equivalent amount in the Funding Currency calculated in accordance with the Exchange Rate, and (ii) if any prepayment is made on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor, it may be prepaid only upon three (3) Business Days prior notice to Agent and the Borrower shall pay to the Agent any applicable fees and amounts described in Section 5.2(a) below. Amounts prepaid in respect of Loans under this Section 4.4 may be re-

- 15 -


 

borrowed subject to the terms and conditions hereof. The Borrower shall make mandatory principal payments on the Loans as provided in Section 2.1(b), Section 2.2 and Section 3.3(d) above.
     4.5 Payments. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein and subject to Section 4.8 below, all payments of principal, interest, Fees, taxes, charges, expenses and other items payable by the Borrower hereunder and under the Revolving Notes shall be made in the Funding Currency but shall be calculated by the Agent in Dollars and shall be credited on the date of receipt by the Agent for the Pro Rata benefit of the Lenders if received by the Agent at its principal office in Mumbai, in immediately available funds, prior to 4:00 p.m., Mumbai time, on a Business Day. Payments made in funds which are not immediately available shall be credited only when the funds are collected by the Agent, and payments received (whether from the Borrower in immediately available funds or through the collection of funds which were not immediately available at the time payment was tendered by the Borrower) after 4:00 p.m. (Mumbai time) will be credited on the next Business Day. The Agent reserves the right to apply all payments received by it from the Borrower and designated or authorized to be applied to the Revolving Notes first to any Fees and other charges then due to the Agent or the Lenders, then to accrued interest on such Revolving Notes for the benefit of the Lenders on a Pro Rata basis and then to reduction of the principal balance of such Revolving Notes for the benefit of the Lenders on a Pro Rata basis, or such other order as the Agent may determine in its sole discretion. The Agent shall also record in its records, in accordance with customary accounting practice, all interest, Fees, taxes, charges, expenses and other items properly chargeable to the Borrower with respect to the Loans, all payments received by the Agent for application to the Obligations, and all other appropriate debits and credits. The Agent’s records shall constitute prima facie evidence of the amount of Obligations outstanding from time to time. All payments received by the Agent shall be distributed by Agent in accordance with this Section 4.5, subject to the rights of offset that Agent may have as to amounts otherwise to be remitted to a particular Lender by reason of amounts due to the Agent from such Lender under any of the Loan Documents.
(b) (i) Each Obligor shall make all payments by it required hereunder or under any other Loan Document without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.
(ii) The Borrower Agent shall promptly, upon any Obligor becoming aware that an Obligor has had or will have to make a Tax Deduction (or that there has been or will be a change in the rate at which or the basis on which any Tax Deduction has to be made), notify the Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Agent upon becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrower Agent and the applicable Obligor.
(iii) If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment in respect of which the Tax Deduction is required to be made shall be increased to the amount which (after making any Tax Deduction)

- 16 -


 

will leave an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.
     4.6 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 a 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 Agent (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law 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 Agent or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the 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 Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:
     (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,
     (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,
     (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate 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, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or
     (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law 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 applicable law to permit the Borrower Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
     4.7 Minimum Amounts. Each borrowing of, or conversion into, any Prime Lending Rate Loan shall be in an amount in the Funding Currency equal to at least One

- 17 -


 

Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or a multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in excess thereof, and each borrowing of, conversion into, or continuation of, a MIBOR Rate Loan shall be in an amount in the Funding Currency equal to at least Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or a multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in excess thereof, in each case calculated in accordance with the Exchange Rate; provided that fluctuations in the unpaid principal balance of any MIBOR Rate Loan resulting from the translation calculations set forth in Section 3.3 shall not affect the Borrower’s ability to request a continuation of a MIBOR Rate Loan as a result of it not meeting the minimum amount or multiple amount requirements of this Section 4.7.
     4.8 Certain Requests and Notices. (a) The Borrower or the Borrower Agent on behalf of the Borrower will request borrowings and give notice to the Agent of all terminations or reductions of the Commitment or conversions, continuations and prepayments of Loans and duration of Interest Periods substantially in the form of Exhibits 4.8-A and 4.8-B hereto, as applicable (each a “Loan Request”). Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received by the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. Mumbai time (i) on the Business Day prior to the effective date of the requested termination or reduction of the Commitment, (ii) on the same day if it is a notice of a borrowing or prepayment of a Prime Lending Rate Loan (except that if such date is not a Business Day, then on the next Business Day), or (ii) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested effective date for a borrowing or prepayment of, conversion into or continuation of a MIBOR Rate Loan or any selection of an Interest Period for a MIBOR Rate Loan. Any such Loan Request for a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of a MIBOR Rate Loan shall specify, (i) the amount of principal which shall comprise the MIBOR Rate Loan, (ii) the date on which the rate is to become effective, and (iii) the Interest Period for such MIBOR Rate Loan. For purposes of calculating the number of Business Days, the date the notice is received shall be included if received not later than 11:00 a.m. Mumbai time and excluded if received after 11:00 a.m. Mumbai time.
          (b) Fundings by Lenders. Subject to its receipt of notice from Agent of a Loan Request for a borrowing as provided in Section 4.8(a) (except in the case of a deemed request by the Borrower for a Revolving Loan as provided herein, in which event no Notice of Borrowing need be submitted), each Lender shall timely honor its Revolving Credit Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Revolving Loan that is properly requested by the Borrower or the Borrower Agent on behalf of the Borrower and that the Borrower is entitled to receive under this Agreement. Agent shall endeavor to notify Lenders of each Loan Request (or deemed request for a Borrowing), by 1:00 p.m. Mumbai time on the proposed funding date (in the case of Prime Lending Rate Loans) or by 3:00 p.m. Mumbai time at least 2 Business Days before the proposed funding date (in the case of MIBOR Rate Loans). Each Lender shall deposit with Agent an amount equal to its Pro Rata share of the Revolving Loan requested or deemed requested by the Borrower at Agent’s designated bank in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. Mumbai time on the date of funding of such Revolving Loan, unless Agent’s notice to the Lenders is received after 1:00 p.m. Mumbai time on the proposed funding date of a Prime Lending Rate Loan, in which event the Lenders shall deposit with Agent their respective Pro Rata shares of the requested Revolving Loan on or before

- 18 -


 

11:00 a.m. Mumbai time on the next Business Day. Subject to its receipt of such amounts from the Lenders, Agent shall make the proceeds of the Revolving Loans received by it available to the Borrower by disbursing such proceeds in accordance with the Borrower’s or Borrower Agent’s disbursement instructions set forth in the applicable Loan Request. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability on account of any delay by any bank or other depository institution in treating the proceeds of any Revolving Loan as collected funds or any delay in receipt, or any loss, of funds that constitute a Revolving Loan, the wire transfer of which was initiated by Agent in accordance with wiring instructions provided to Agent. Unless Agent shall have been notified in writing by a Lender prior to the proposed time of funding that such Lender does not intend to deposit with Agent an amount equal such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the requested Revolving Loan (or deemed request), Agent may assume that such Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with Agent and Agent may in its discretion disburse a corresponding amount to the Borrower on the applicable funding date. If a Lender’s Pro Rata share of such Revolving Loan is not in fact deposited with Agent, then, if Agent has disbursed to the Borrower an amount corresponding to such share, then such Lender agrees to pay, and in addition the Borrower agrees to repay, to Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is disbursed by Agent to or for the benefit of the Borrower until the date such amount is paid or repaid to Agent, (a) in the case of the Borrower, at the interest rate applicable to such Revolving Loan and (b) in the case of such Lender, at the Prime Lending Rate. If such Lender repays to Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute a Revolving Loan, and if both such Lender and the Borrower shall have repaid such corresponding amount, Agent shall promptly return to the Borrower such corresponding amount in same day funds. A notice from Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this Section 4.8(b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
     4.9 Borrower Agent. The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Euronet Worldwide, Inc. and Euronet Worldwide, Inc. agrees to act under this Agreement, as the agent and representative of the Borrower for all purposes under this Agreement (in such capacity, “Borrower Agent”), including requesting Revolving Loans, selecting whether any Loan is to be a Prime Lending Rate Loan or a MIBOR Rate Loan, and receiving account statements and other notices and communications to the Borrower from Agent.

ARTICLE 12
AGENT
     12.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and neither the Borrower nor any other Obligor shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.
     12.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the 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 Parties or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

          (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
          (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to

- 44 -


 

exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and
          (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower Parties or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
     The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 13.9 and 11.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Agent by the Borrower, the Borrower Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer.
     The 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 or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 6 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

     12.5 Delegation of Duties. The 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 Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the 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 Agent.
     12.6 Resignation of Agent. (a) The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Borrower Agent. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower Agent, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Agent shall notify the Borrower Agent and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower or Borrower Agent to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 13.6 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent.
          (b) Any resignation by Bank of America as Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer, as the case may be. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the

- 46 -


 

rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.
     12.7 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the 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.
     12.8 Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower Party or other Obligor, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower Parties) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
          (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Agent under Section 13.6) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
          (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent under Section 13.6.

- 47 -


 

     Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
     12.9 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion,
          (a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) subject to Section 13.9, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; and
          (b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 10.2.

- 50 -


 

with this subsection 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 subsection (d) of this Section.
          (c) Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Agent’s principal office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower Parties and the L/C Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender wishing to consult with other Lenders in connection therewith may request and receive from the Agent a copy of the Register.

Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.2 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.7 as though it were a Lender.
          (e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.2 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the

- 51 -


 

Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.5(b) 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 Section 4.6 as though it were a Lender.
          (f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) 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) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
          (h) Resignation as L/C Issuer after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitments and Loans pursuant to Section 13.5(b) above, Bank of America may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower Agent and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Prime Lending Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts).
     13.6 Expenses; Indemnity.

          E. amend this Section or any provision of this Agreement providing for consent or other action by all Lenders;

          (a) Any and all rights it may have at any time (whether arising directly or indirectly, by operation of law, contract or otherwise) to require the marshaling of any assets of the Borrower, which right of marshaling might otherwise arise from any such payments made or Obligations performed;

          (c) Until such time as the Obligations have been satisfied in full, any claim, right or remedy which it may now have or hereafter acquire against any Obligor that arises hereunder and/or from the performance by it hereunder including, without limitation, any claim, remedy or right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or participation in any claim, right or remedy of the Agent or any Lender against any Obligor or any collateral security which the Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter acquire, whether or not such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise.
