Subordinated Indebtedness” means Indebtedness of the Borrower that (a) is evidenced by bonds or notes, (b) at or before the time of issuance or distribution, is fully subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations and any instruments or securities issued in substitution of, or exchange for, all or any portion of the Obligations, (c) does not have the benefit of any obligation of any Person (whether as issuer, guarantor or otherwise), (d) is unsecured, (e) does not contain any financial covenants and does not contain any other terms which are more burdensome to the Borrower, this Agreement or the Related Documents, and (f) is not subject to optional or mandatory redemption or prepayment, except for optional redemption or prepayment in connection with the occurrence of a Special Event, and (g) does not mature prior to the date that is five (5) years after the date of its issuance.”

; and

(ii) by inserting where alphabetically appropriate the following definition:


Special Event” means, with respect to any subordinated indebtedness of the Borrower, the occurrence of any of the following: (a) a change or prospective change in law occurs that could prevent the Borrower from deducting interest payable on such subordinated indebtedness for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (b) an event that precludes such subordinated indebtedness from being recognized as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes; and (c) the Borrower is required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.”

(b) Section 5.3(h) shall be amended by deleting the word “or” where it appears immediately before clause (vi) thereof and by adding the following immediately prior to the period (“.”) at the end of said Section 5.3(h):

“; (vii) the determination by the Borrower to prepay or redeem any Subordinated Indebtedness upon the occurrence of a Special Event”

(c) There shall be added at the end of Section 6, the following new Section 6.8:

“6.8 Prepayment or Redemption of Subordinated Indebtedness. Prepay or redeem, or permit any prepayment or redemption of, any Subordinated Indebtedness, except upon the occurrence of a Special Event, provided that (a) immediately after giving effect to any such prepayment or redemption the Borrower shall be in compliance with Section 5.11 hereof, determined on a pro forma basis as at the date of such prepayment or redemption (except in the case of Section 5.11(d) which shall be determined as at the end of the immediately preceding Fiscal Quarter), which compliance shall be demonstrated by delivery by the Borrower to the Lender of a duly completed certificate of the president or chief financial officer of the Borrower in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto, and (b) both immediately before and after giving effect to any such prepayment or redemption no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.”
