“12.11 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for swap and related hedging agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the
5
laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.”
Section 3Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective as of the date upon which each of the following conditions has been satisfied in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent and each Consenting Lender (the “Amendment No. 1 Effective Date”):
(a)the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts of this Amendment executed by each Loan Party and each Consenting Lender;
(b)the Administrative Agent shall have received (i) for the account of the Consenting Lenders, an amendment fee in an amount equal to 0.10% of the total outstanding Revolving Loan Commitments of the Consenting Lenders as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of legal counsel to the Administrative Agent);
(c)the representations and warranties set forth in Article VI of the Credit Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date with the same effect as if then made; provided, that such representations and warranties (i) that relate solely to an earlier date shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date and (ii) shall be true and correct in all respects if they are qualified by a materiality standard; and
(d)no Default or Event of Default shall have then occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom.
Section 4Loan Documents. Except as herein provided, the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect. This Amendment is a Loan Document executed under the Credit Agreement and shall be construed in accordance with the Credit Agreement.
Section 5Miscellaneous. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic imaging means (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. This Amendment and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Amendment and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall each be governed by, and each be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
6
Section 6Forum Selection and Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parent, the Borrower and each other Loan Party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Amendment or the transactions relating hereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Nothing in this Amendment or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Amendment against the Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. Each of the Parent, the Borrower and each other Loan Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Amendment in any court referred to in this Section 9. The Parent, the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. To the extent that the Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the Parent, the Borrower or such other Loan Party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Parent, the Borrower and each Loan Party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 11.2 of the Credit Agreement at the address for such parties set forth in Section 11.2 of the Credit Agreement. Nothing in this Amendment or in any other Loan Document shall affect the right of any party to this Amendment to serve process in any other matter permitted by Law.
Section 7Waiver of Jury Trial, etc.
EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AMENDMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE LENDER PARTIES, THE PARENT OR THE BORROWER. THE PARENT AND THE BORROWER EACH ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE LENDER PARTIES ENTERING INTO THIS AMENDMENT.
