Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is made to the Note Purchase Agreement dated as of August 28, 2012 among Intrepid Potash, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Purchasers listed in Schedule A attached thereto, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Note Purchase Agreement dated as of January 15, 2016 (as so amended, the “Existing Note Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company issued (i) $60,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.23% Senior Notes, Series A, due April 16, 2020; (ii) $45,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.13% Senior Notes, Series B, due April 14, 2023; and (iii) $45,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.28% Senior Notes, Series C, due April 16, 2025 (collectively, the “Notes”).  You are referred to herein individually as a “Holder” and collectively as the “Holders.”  The Existing Note Purchase Agreement, as modified by this Fifth Waiver to Note Purchase Agreement (this “Waiver Agreement”) and as may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, is referred to herein as the “Note Purchase Agreement”.  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Note Purchase Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the Waiver to Note Purchase Agreement dated as of March 23, 2016 by and among the Company and the Holders, each of the Holders waived compliance by the Company with Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 until May 13, 2016.

 

Pursuant to the Second Waiver to Note Purchase Agreement dated as of May 6, 2016 by and among the Company and the Holders, each of the Holders again waived compliance by the Company with Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 until June 30, 2016.

Pursuant to the Third Waiver to Note Purchase Agreement dated as of June 30, 2016 by and among the Company and the Holders, each of the Holders again waived compliance by the Company with Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 until July 15, 2016.

 

Pursuant to the Fourth Waiver to Note Purchase Agreement dated as of July 15, 2016 by and among the Company and the Holders, each of the Holders again waived compliance by the Company with Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 until July 29, 2016.

 

The Company has further requested that compliance by the Company with Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement for each of the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016 (collectively, the “Specified Quarters”) be waived from July 29, 2016 until September 30, 2016.  The undersigned Holders have agreed to such waivers on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

But for the Waivers (as defined below) provided herein, Events of Default would exist under Section 11(c) of the Note Purchase Agreement as of March 31, 2016 as a result of the Company’s failure to comply with Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement for the Specified Quarters.

 

The Company and the Holders have negotiated a proposed restructuring of the financial obligations of the Company to the Holders (the “Restructuring”) pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Waiver Agreement and in accordance with the term sheet attached as Exhibit A to that certain Officer’s Certificate, dated July 29, 2016, addressed to the holders of the Notes and executed by the Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer of the Company (the “Term Sheet”).

 

In consideration of the premises and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Company and the undersigned Holders agree as follows:

 

1.                                      WAIVERS

 

Effective as of the Effective Date (as defined below), the undersigned Holders agree to waive, until September 30, 2016, the requirement that the Company comply with Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement for each of the Specified Quarters (collectively, the “Waivers”), and agree that any failure by the Company to comply with such Sections 10.1 and/or 10.2 for the Specified Quarters shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default until September 30, 2016; provided, however, that (a) if the Leverage Ratio as of June 30, 2016 exceeds 10.70 to 1.00, or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is less than (1.50) to 1.00 as of June 30, 2016, then the Waivers shall be null, void and of no further force or effect, and (b) the Company shall report on the Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as and when required by the Existing Note Purchase Agreement.  Unless a further waiver is provided by the Holders pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, an immediate Event of Default shall occur under Section 11(c) of the Note Purchase Agreement on September 30, 2016, effective as of March 31, 2016.

 

2



 

The Waivers are limited to their terms and do not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, representation, covenant or undertaking under the Note Purchase Agreement or any of the other agreements, documents, or instruments executed and delivered in connection therewith.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Waivers do not and shall not apply to any other Default or Event of Default that may currently be outstanding, and shall not apply to any future Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default under Section 11(c) of the Note Purchase Agreement occurring during the period from the Effective Date until September 30, 2016 and arising solely from the Company’s failure to comply with Sections 10.1 and/or 10.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement for either of the Specified Quarters).  The Company, on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, agrees that the Waivers do not constitute or represent any agreement or commitment by any Holder to provide any other modifications to the Note Purchase Agreement or any of the other agreements, documents, or instruments executed and delivered in connection therewith, or establish any course of dealing by any Holder.  Except as expressly provided in the Waivers, (a) the Waivers do not and shall not constitute a waiver, release or limitation upon the exercise by any Holder of any of its rights, legal or equitable, hereunder or under the Note Purchase Agreement or any of the other agreements, documents, or instruments executed and delivered in connection therewith and (b) each Holder reserves any and all rights and remedies which it has had, has or may have under the Note Purchase Agreement and the other agreements, documents, or instruments executed and delivered in connection therewith.

 

2.                                      RESTRUCTURING

 

The Company and each Holder agree to negotiate in good faith the definitive documentation for the Restructuring and the transactions contemplated by this Waiver Agreement and the Term Sheet as reasonably necessary and appropriate to consummate the Restructuring, each of which documents shall be consistent with this Waiver Agreement and the Term Sheet and shall be otherwise in form and substance acceptable to the Company and the Holders.

 

The Company acknowledges and agrees that upon the Expiration Date, the Holders shall have no further obligation whatsoever to negotiate with respect to any restructuring of the obligations of the Company to the Holders or any modification, amendment or waiver of the Note Purchase Agreement or the Notes or of any Events of Default, or to refrain from exercising or enforcing Holders’ rights and remedies under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Notes or any of the documents, agreements or instruments executed and/or delivered in connection therewith.  As used herein, “Expiration Date” means the earliest of any of the following:  (a) September 30, 2016, (b) the date on which any Default or Event of Default occurs (including, without limitation, as a result of the Waivers becoming null, void or otherwise ineffective), (c) the date on which the Company or any Affiliate takes any action in any proceeding or in writing to challenge or contest the validity or enforceability of, or in any manner asserts in any proceeding or in writing the invalidity or unenforceability of, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Notes or any document, agreement or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection therewith, or any provision hereof or thereof, or (d) the date on which the Company breaches any representation, warranty or covenant set forth in this Waiver Agreement.

3.                                      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

3.1                               No Default or Event of Default.  No event has occurred and no condition exists that, as of the date hereof or as of the Effective Date (after giving effect to the Waivers), would constitute a Default or Event of Default.

 

3.2                               Authorization, etc.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Waiver Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and does not require any registration with, consent or approval of, notice to or action by, any Person (including any Governmental Authority) in order to be effective and enforceable.  The Note Purchase Agreement, this Waiver Agreement and the Notes each constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

3.3                               Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, etc.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Waiver Agreement will not (a) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, corporate charter or by-laws, or any other Material agreement, lease, or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, (b) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or (c) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

3.4                               Disclosure.  This Waiver Agreement and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Holders by or on behalf of the Company in connection herewith, taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.  There is no fact known to the Company that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the other documents, certificates and other writings delivered to the Holders by or on behalf of the Company.

 

3.5                               Indebtedness Under Credit Agreement.  As of the date of this Waiver Agreement, (a) no principal or interest is outstanding in respect of Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) under the Credit Agreement and (b) the aggregate amount of all LC Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is $500,000.

 

3.6                               Credit Agreement Waiver.  No consideration or remuneration has been paid or will be paid to any agent or any lender under the Credit Agreement as an inducement to enter into the Credit Agreement Waiver (as defined below) other than the work fee described in the Credit Agreement Waiver.
