Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 3.7(e)(ii) below) shall not be required if in Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Lender.

(A) Lender shall deliver to Borrowers from time to time upon the reasonable request of Borrowers, executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of Borrowers and each Subsidiary thereof that is a party thereto, and each such document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrowers and each Subsidiary thereof that is a party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal debtor relief laws from time to time in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and the availability of equitable remedies. 

 

SECTION 5.4 Compliance of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing with Laws, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrowers and each Subsidiary thereof of the Loan Documents to which each such Person is a party, in accordance with their respective terms, the Loan hereunder and the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, (a) require any Governmental Approval or violate any Applicable Law relating to Borrowers or any Subsidiary thereof that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Borrowers or any Subsidiary, (b) conflict with, result in a material breach of or constitute a default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of Borrowers or any Subsidiary thereof, (c) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which such Person is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound or any Governmental Approval relating to such Person which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (d) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Person other than Permitted Liens or (e) require any consent or authorization of, filing with, or other act in respect of, an arbitrator or Governmental Authority and no consent of any other Person is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement other than (i) consents or filings under the UCC, (ii) filings with the United States Copyright Office, the United States Patent and Trademark Office, if applicable and (iii) consents or filings which have been expressly waived by the Lender in writing or which have previously been obtained.

Borrowers shall pay (i) $90,000.00 on or before the Closing Date for Lender’s expenses incurred for the preparation, negotiation, execution, and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Lender (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel or advisor (financial or otherwise) for Lender), and (iii) all reasonable fees and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and fees and expenses of professional advisors (including reasonable out of pocket fees and expenses for any attorneys or professional advisors who may be employees of Lender), incurred by Lender in the enforcement of attempted enforcement of any of the Obligations or in preserving any of Lender’s rights and remedies (including, without limitation, all such reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with any “workout” or restructuring affecting the Loan Documentation or the Obligations or any bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving Borrowers).

 

(b) Indemnification by the Borrowers. Borrowers shall indemnify Lender and each Related Party (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, and shall pay or reimburse any such Indemnitee for, any and all losses, claims (including, without limitation, any Environmental Claims), damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel or advisor (financial or otherwise) for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless, each Indemnitee from, and shall pay or reimburse any such Indemnitee for, all reasonable fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including Borrowers but excluding such Indemnitee and its Related Parties), arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions, (ii) the Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by Borrowers or any Subsidiary thereof, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to Borrowers or any Subsidiary, (iv) any actual claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Borrowers or any Subsidiary thereof, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, or (v) any claim (including, without limitation, any Environmental Claims), investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not Lender is a party thereto) and the prosecution and defense thereof, arising out of the Loan, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys and consultant’s fees as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

 

 

(c) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no party shall assert, and each party hereby waives, any claim against any other party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in clause (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

SECTION 9.4 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by Lender, or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrowers against any and all of the obligations of Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to Lender or any of its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not Lender or any such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrowers may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of Lender or such Affiliate different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Lender or its Affiliates may have. Lender agrees to notify Borrowers promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

 

SECTION 9.5 Governing Law; Jurisdiction, Etc.

 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claim, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without application of the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

 

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each 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 any other party or any Related Party in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and any federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, 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.

 

 

(c) Waiver of Venue. Each 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 Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto 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.

 

(d) Service of Process. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.1. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law.

 

SECTION 9.6 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

 

SECTION 9.7 Reversal of Payments. To the extent Borrowers make a payment or payments to Lender or Lender receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral which payments or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds repaid, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

 

SECTION 9.8 Injunctive Relief. Each party recognizes that, in the event such party fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the other parties. Therefore, each party agrees that the other parties, at such other party’s option, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

 

 

SECTION 9.9 Accounting Matters. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either Borrower or Lender shall so request, Lender, Lender and Borrowers shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP; provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) Borrower shall provide to Lender financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

 

SECTION 9.10 Successors and Assigns; Participations. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender. Lender may at any time, without consent of Borrowers, assign to one assignee all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided, however, that the Lender shall not assign or otherwise transfer their rights or obligations hereunder to an assignee if (i) an officer, director, member, or affiliate of the assignee would be deemed a “bad actor” as covered by Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) or (ii) the assignee is a competitor to the Borrowers in any business segment (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) (provided, however, that the assignee may be an aforementioned competitor if the assignee is a state or national bank, state or federal savings and loan association, mutual savings bank, or state or federal credit union). 

 

SECTION 9.11 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any rating agency, regulatory or similar authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement, under any other Loan Document, or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to Borrowers and their obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries or the Loan or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loan, (h) with the consent of the Borrowers, to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications, (j) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to Lender or any of its Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrowers or (k) to governmental regulatory authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of Lender or in accordance with Lender’s regulatory compliance policy if Lender deems necessary for the mitigation of claims by those authorities against Lender or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof relating to any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof; provided that, in the case of information received from any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

 

 

SECTION 9.12 Performance of Duties. Other than as specifically set forth herein, each of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall be performed by such Borrower at its sole cost and expense.

 

SECTION 9.13 All Powers Coupled with Interest. All powers of attorney and other authorizations granted to Lender and any Persons designated by Lender pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

 

SECTION 9.14 Survival.

 

(a) All representations and warranties set forth in Article V and all representations and warranties contained in any certificate, or any of the Loan Documents (including, but not limited to, any such representation or warranty made in or in connection with any amendment thereto) shall constitute representations and warranties made under this Agreement. All representations and warranties made under this Agreement shall be made or deemed to be made at and as of the Closing Date (except those that are expressly made as of a specific date), shall survive the Closing Date and shall not be waived by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation made by or on behalf of the Lender or any borrowing hereunder.

 

(b) Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the indemnities to which Lender is entitled under the provisions of this Article IX and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect Lender against events arising after such termination as well as before.

 

SECTION 9.15 Titles and Captions. Titles and captions of Articles, Sections and subsections in, and the table of contents of, this Agreement are for convenience only, and neither limit nor amplify the provisions of this Agreement.

 

SECTION 9.16 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

 

SECTION 9.17 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

 

(a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement 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. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to Lender, 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. Except as provided in Section 4.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Lender and when Lender shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement

 

(b) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import 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 or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

 

SECTION 9.18 Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in effect from the Closing Date through and including the date upon which all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due or that have not yet arisen at such time) arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall have been indefeasibly and irrevocably paid and satisfied in full. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the rights and obligations of the parties hereto arising prior to such termination or in respect of any provision of this Agreement which survives such termination.

 

SECTION 9.19 USA PATRIOT Act. Lender hereby notifies Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of Borrowers and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrowers in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

 

SECTION 9.20 Independent Effect of Covenants. Borrowers expressly acknowledge and agree that each covenant contained in Articles VI or VII hereof shall be given independent effect. Accordingly, Borrowers shall not engage in any transaction or other act otherwise permitted under any covenant contained in Articles VI or VII, before or after giving effect to such transaction or act, if as a result such Borrower shall or would be in breach of any other covenant contained in Articles VI or VII.

 

 

SECTION 9.21 Inconsistencies with Other Documents. In the event there is a conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall control; provided that any provision of the Security Documents which imposes additional burdens on any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or further restricts the rights of any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or gives Lender additional rights shall not be deemed to be in conflict or inconsistent with this Agreement and shall be given full force and effect.

 

SECTION 9.22 Joint and Several Liability.

 

(a) Joint and Several. Each Borrower hereby agrees that such Borrower is jointly and severally liable for the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to the Lender by each other Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged until indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations has occurred and the commitments to lend hereunder have been terminated, and that its obligations under this Section 9.22 shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by,

 

(i) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Borrower is or may become a party;

 

(ii) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 9.22) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Lender with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

 

(iii) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its Lien against, any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by the Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);

 

(iv) the insolvency of any Borrower or Guarantor; or

 

(v) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

 

(b) Waivers by Borrowers. Each Borrower expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel the Lender to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations against any other Borrower or Guarantor, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower and the Lender that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Section 9.22 and such waivers, the Lender would decline to enter into this Agreement.

 

(c) Benefit of Joint and Several Obligations. Each Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Section 9.22 are for the benefit of the Lender and its respective successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Borrower and the Lender, the obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents.

 

 

(d) Subordination of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, each Borrower hereby expressly and irrevocably subordinates to payment of the Obligations any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor with respect to any other Borrower or Guarantor until the Obligations are irrevocably paid in full in cash (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due) and the commitments to lend hereunder have been terminated. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit the Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Section 9.22, and that the Lender and its successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 9.22(d).

 

(e) Election of Remedies. If the Lender may, under Applicable Law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving the Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Borrower or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, the Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Section 9.22. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, the Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such action by the Lender, even if such action by the Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that each Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by Lender.

 

(f) Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability under this Section 9.22 shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the amount that could be claimed by the Lender from such Borrower under this Section 9.22 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Borrower’s right of contribution and indemnification from each other Borrower.

 

(g) Liability Cumulative. The liability of Borrowers under this Section 9.22 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Borrower to the Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other Borrower, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

 

 

ARTICLE X

 

Loan Guaranty

 

SECTION 10.1 Guaranty. Each Guarantor (other than those that have delivered a separate guaranty) hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and, as a primary obligor and not merely as surety, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Lender, the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Obligations and all costs and expenses including, without limitation, all court costs and reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees (including allocated costs of in-house counsel and paralegals) and expenses paid or incurred by the Lender in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations (such costs and expenses, together with the Obligations, collectively the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided, however, that the definition of “Guaranteed Obligations” shall not create any guarantee by any Guarantor of (or grant of security interest by any Guarantor to support, as applicable) any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor for purposes of determining any obligations of any Guarantor). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal.

 

SECTION 10.2 Guaranty of Payment. This guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor waives any right to require the Lender to sue any Borrower, any Guarantor, any other guarantor of, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”).

 

SECTION 10.3 No Discharge or Diminishment of Guaranty.

 

(a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower or any other Obligated Party liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or dis-charge of any obligation of any Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Guarantor may have at any time against any Obligated Party, the Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

 

(b) The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Obligated Party, of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

 

 

(c) Further, the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of any Borrower for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other Obligated Party liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

 

SECTION 10.4 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or any Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Obligated Party, other than the Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Obligated Party, or any other Person. Each Guarantor confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Lender may compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Guarantor under this guaranty, except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been Paid in Full. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to Applicable Law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Obligated Party.

 

SECTION 10.5 Rights of Subrogation. No Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Obligated Party, or any collateral, until the Borrowers and the Guarantors have fully performed all their obligations to the Lender.

 

SECTION 10.6 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations (including a payment effected through exercise of a right of setoff) is rescinded, or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Lender in its discretion), each Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Lender is in possession of this guaranty. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Lender.

 

 

SECTION 10.7 Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this guaranty, and agrees that the Lender shall not have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

 

SECTION 10.8 Taxes. Each payment of the Guaranteed Obligations will be made by each Guarantor without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by Applicable Law. If any Guarantor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such Guarantor may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law. The amount payable by such Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section), the Lender receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made.

 

SECTION 10.9 Maximum Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this guaranty, the amount guaranteed by each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the extent, if any, required so that its obligations hereunder shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, Uniform Voidable Transactions Act or similar statute or common law. In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any rights of subrogation, indemnification or contribution which such Guarantor may have under this guaranty, any other agreement or Applicable Law shall be taken into account.

 

SECTION 10.10 Contribution.

 

(a) To the extent that any Guarantor shall make a payment under this guaranty (a “Guarantor Payment”) which, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Guarantor, exceeds the amount which otherwise would have been paid by or attributable to such Guarantor if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate Guaranteed Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion as such Guarantor’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Guarantors as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guarantor Payment, the Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of this Agreement, such Guarantor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Guarantor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

 

(b) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Guarantor shall be equal to the excess of the fair saleable value of the property of such Guarantor over the total liabilities of such Guarantor (including the maximum amount reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent liabilities, calculated, without duplication, assuming each other Guarantor that is also liable for such contingent liability pays its ratable share thereof), giving effect to all payments made by other Guarantors as of such date in a manner to maximize the amount of such contributions.

 

 

(c) This Section 10.10 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Guarantors, and nothing set forth in this Section 10.10 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this guaranty.

 

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Guarantor or Guarantors to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

 

(e) The rights of the indemnifying Guarantors against other Guarantors under this Section 10.10 shall be exercisable upon the Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of this Agreement

 

SECTION 10.11 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Person as a Guarantor under this Article X is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of such Person to the Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Person is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

 

SECTION 10.12 FaceBank AG Waiver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Loan Documents, the Lender hereby expressly waives any and all rights that it may have under this Agreement (including but not limited to the rights contained in Article VIII of this Agreement) and the Loan Documents arising from or related to FaceBank’s sale of 100% of the capital stock of FaceBank AG (the “Facebank AG Sale”) or any of the transaction documents directly related to the Facebank AG Sale, so long as the Borrowers do not transfer any of the Borrowers’ or their Subsidiaries’ assets to FaceBank AG prior to the consummation of the FaceBank AG Sale. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Loan Documents, (i) FaceBank is expressly authorized and permitted under this Section 10.12 of this Agreement to consummate the Facebank AG Sale and the transactions directly related to the Facebank AG Sale, (ii) the aforementioned transactions shall not result in a breach of, or be prohibited by, any of the provisions in this Agreement, (iii) the aforementioned transactions shall not be counted or be credited towards any dollar threshold contained in this Agreement, and (iv) Facebank AG as well as the assets of Facebank AG shall not be included as Collateral or otherwise as security of any kind under this Agreement (and thus shall not be included on any of the schedules to this Agreement).

 

SECTION 10.13 Joinder. If any Subsidiary is created after the Closing Date, then such Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor under this Agreement and shall execute a joinder to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.
