(e)          The Administrative Agent shall have received, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the IDHC Bridge Arrangers, (i) copies of documentation for the IDHC Acquisition and other aspects of the IDHC Transactions, including the IDHC Acquisition Agreement and all exhibits and schedules thereto, and (ii) evidence of all consents and approvals required pursuant to the terms of the IDHC Acquisition Agreement, including the consent of the board of directors of IDHC and of the equityholders of IDHC. The IDHC Acquisition shall have been consummated substantially concurrently with the Borrowing of such Loans, utilizing only the sources of consideration as agreed between the Parent Borrower, the IDHC Bridge Arrangers, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the IDHC Acquisition Agreement without giving effect to any waiver, modification or consent thereunder that is materially adverse to the Lenders or the IDHC Bridge Arrangers (as reasonably determined by the IDHC Bridge Arrangers) unless approved by the IDHC Bridge Arrangers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (1) any decrease in the IDHC Acquisition consideration shall not be materially adverse to the Lenders and the IDHC Bridge Arrangers so long as such decrease is allocated to reduce the Capital Stock of the Parent Borrower issued to the equityholders of IDHC as consideration for the IDHC Acquisition and the amount of such Loans on a pro rata, dollar-for-dollar basis, (2) any increase in the purchase price shall not be materially adverse to the Lenders and the IDHC Bridge Arrangers so long as such increase is funded solely by an increase in the amount of the Capital Stock of the Parent Borrower issued to the equityholders of IDHC as consideration for the IDHC Acquisition and (3) any change to the definition of “Material Adverse Effect” shall be deemed to be a modification which is materially adverse to the Lenders and the IDHC Bridge Arrangers.

(f)          The representations and warranties made by or with respect to IDHC and its Subsidiaries in the IDHC Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders shall be true and correct such that the conditions to closing set forth in the IDHC Acquisition Agreement are satisfied with respect thereto, but only to the extent that the Parent Borrower or any of its Affiliates has the right to terminate its obligations under the IDHC Acquisition Agreement, or to decline to consummate the IDHC Acquisition pursuant to the IDHC Acquisition Agreement, as result of a breach of such representations and warranties in the IDHC Acquisition Agreement. The representations and warranties of the Parent Borrower set forth in Sections 4.1 (but only with respect to clause (i) therein), 4.2, 4.3 (but only with respect to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) therein), 4.7, 4.11 and 4.12 shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that any representation and warranty qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect shall be true and correct in all respects).

(g)          No Default or Event of Default under Section 8.1(a), 8.1(e), 8.1(f) or 8.1(g) shall have occurred and be continuing on such date, both immediately before and after giving effect to the Loans to be made on such date.

(h)          Substantially simultaneously with the Borrowing of such Loans and the consummation of the IDHC Acquisition, all existing Indebtedness of IDHC and its Subsidiaries shall be paid in full and/or defeased. On such date, after giving effect to the IDHC Transactions, neither IDHC nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any outstanding Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness that the IDHC Bridge Arrangers and the Borrower agree may remain outstanding).

(i)          The Administrative Agent shall have received a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.2(b).

(j)          The aggregate principal amount of such Loans shall not exceed the aggregate Unutilized Commitments at such time (determined without giving effect to such Loans).

(k)          All fees and expenses due to the IDHC Bridge Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders required to be paid on the IDHC Acquisition Date (including the fees and expenses of counsel for the IDHC Bridge Arrangers and the Administrative Agent) will have been paid.”
