               CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated as of May 2, 2006, among TRIZEC PARTNERS REAL ESTATE, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“TPRE”), TRIZEC CAL HOLDINGS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TCH”, and together with TPRE, the “Borrowers” and each a “Borrower”), TRIZEC PROPERTIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Trizec”), the Lenders party hereto from time to time, and DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) (all capitalized terms used herein and defined in Section 9 are used herein as therein defined).
W I T N E S S E T H:
               WHEREAS, subject to and on the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lenders are willing to make available to the Borrowers the credit facilities provided for herein.
               NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
               SECTION 1. Amount and Terms of Credit.
               1.01 Commitments to Extend Loans.    (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make a term loan (each, a “Loan” and, collectively, the “Loans”) to the Borrowers, which Loans (i) shall be incurred pursuant to a single advance on the Effective Date, (ii) shall be denominated in Dollars, (iii) except as hereinafter provided, shall, at the option of the Borrowers, be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into, Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, provided that (A) except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 1.08(b), all Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times be of the same Type, and (B) unless the Administrative Agent has otherwise agreed or has determined that the Syndication Date has occurred (at which time this clause (B) shall no longer be applicable), no more than five (5) Borrowings of Loans to be maintained as Eurodollar Rate Loans may be incurred prior to the 104th day after the Effective Date (or, if later, the last day of the Interest Period applicable to the fifth (5th) Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans referred to below), the first of which Borrowings shall be made on the Effective Date and shall have an Interest Period of one (1) week, the second of which Borrowings may only be made on the last day of the Interest Period of the first such Borrowing and shall have an Interest Period of one (1) week, the third of which Borrowings may only be made on the last day of the Interest Period of the second such Borrowing and shall have an Interest Period of one (1) month, the fourth of which Borrowings may only be made on the last day of the Interest Period of the third such Borrowing and shall have an Interest Period of one (1) month, and the fifth of which Borrowings may only be made on the last day of the Interest Period of the fourth such Borrowing and shall have an Interest Period of one (1) month and (iv) shall be made by each Lender in that principal amount which equals the Commitment of such Lender on the Effective Date. Once repaid, Loans incurred hereunder may not be reborrowed.
               (b)     Subject to Section 1.01(a), more than one (1) Borrowing may occur on the same date, but at no time shall there be outstanding more than eight (8) Borrowings of Eurodollar Rate Loans in the aggregate (or such greater number as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent).

 


 

               1.02 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the Effective Date, each Lender will make available its pro rata portion (determined in accordance with Section 1.05) of the Loans requested to be made on such date. All such amounts will be made available in Dollars and in immediately available funds at the Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrowers at the Payment Office, the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders to the extent of funds actually received by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the Effective Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to the overnight Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days and the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Loan for each day thereafter. Nothing in this Section 1.02 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make its Loan hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any failure by such Lender to make its Loan hereunder.
               1.03 Notes.    (a)    The obligation of the Borrowers to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”).
               (b)     The Note issued to each Lender shall (i) be duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers, (ii) be payable to such Lender or its registered assigns and be dated the date of issuance, (iii) be in a stated principal amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan of such Lender on the date of issuance thereof and be payable in Dollars in the principal amount of the Loan evidenced thereby from time to time, (iv) mature on the Maturity Date, (v) bear interest as provided in the appropriate clause of Section 1.06 in respect of the Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans, as the case may be, evidenced thereby, (vi) be subject to voluntary prepayment of Loans as provided in Section 3.01 and mandatory repayment of Loans as provided in Section 3.02 and (vii) be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
               (c)     Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of the Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and will, prior to any transfer of its Note, endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of the Loan evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation or any error in such notation shall not affect each Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loan.

-2-


 

                (d)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above or elsewhere in this Agreement, Notes shall only be delivered to Lenders which at any time (or from time to time) specifically request the delivery of such Notes.    No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note evidencing its Loan to the Borrowers shall affect or in any manner impair the obligation of each Borrower to pay the Loan (and all related Obligations) which would otherwise be evidenced thereby in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security therefor or guaranties thereof provided pursuant to the various Credit Documents. Any Lender which does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding Loan shall in no event be required to make the notations otherwise described in preceding clause (c) of this Section 1.03. At any time when any Lender requests the delivery of a Note to evidence its Loan, the Borrowers shall promptly execute and deliver to the respective Lender the requested Note in the appropriate amount or amounts to evidence such Loan.
               1.04 Conversions.    The Borrowers shall have the option to convert, on any Business Day occurring after the Effective Date, all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Loans made pursuant to one or more Borrowings of one or more Types of Loans into a Borrowing of another Type of Loan, provided that (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 1.08(b), Eurodollar Rate Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Loans being converted and no such partial conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (ii) unless the Required Lenders otherwise specifically agree, Base Rate Loans may only be converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans if no Specified Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion, (iii) no conversion pursuant to this Section 1.04 shall result in a greater number of Borrowings of Eurodollar Rate Loans than is permitted under Section 1.01 and (iv) unless the Administrative Agent has determined that the Syndication Date has occurred (at which time this clause (iv) shall no longer be applicable), prior to the 104th day after the Effective Date (or, if later, the last day of the Interest Period applicable to the fifth (5th) Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans referred to in Section 1.01(a)), conversion of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans may only be made if any such conversion is effective on the first day of the second, third, fourth and fifth Interest Periods referred to in clause (B) of the proviso appearing in Section 1.01(a). Each such conversion shall be effected by the Borrowers by giving the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice (each a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”), in the form of Exhibit B, appropriately completed to specify the Loans to be so converted, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were made and, if to be converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion.
               1.05 Pro Rata Borrowings.    All Borrowings of Loans under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Commitments. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loan provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loan hereunder.

-3-


 

               1.06 Interest.    (a)    The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Loan from the date of the Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (x) the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (y) the conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan pursuant to Section 1.04, at a rate per annum which shall be equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the relevant Applicable Margin each as in effect from time to time.
               (b)     The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan from the date of the Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (x) the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (y) the conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 1.04, 1.07 or 1.08, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, be equal to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin as in effect from time to time during such Interest Period.
               (c)     Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all outstanding Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) the rate then borne by such Loans and (y) the sum of the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus 4.5% and (ii) to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of each Loan and any other overdue amount payable hereunder shall, in each case, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus 4.5%.
               (d)     Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, in arrears on (x) June 30, 2006 and (y) each Quarterly Payment Date thereafter, (ii) in respect of each Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) in respect of each Loan, on any repayment or prepayment (on the amount repaid or prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.
               (e)     Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the Eurodollar Rate for the respective Interest Period to be applicable to Eurodollar Rate Loans and shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of such determination. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.
               1.07 Interest Periods.    Subject to Section 1.01(a), at the time the Borrowers give any Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into, any Eurodollar Rate Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), the Borrowers shall have the right to elect, by giving the Administrative Agent notice thereof, a one, two or three month interest period or, if consented to by the Administrative Agent and otherwise available to all of the Lenders, a period of less than one (1) month (each an “Interest Period”) applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, provided that:

-4-


 

          (i)     all Eurodollar Rate Loans comprising a single Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;
          (ii)     the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any conversion thereto from a Base Rate Loan) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;
          (iii)     if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;
          (iv)     if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;
          (v)     unless the Required Lenders otherwise specifically agree, no Interest Period may be selected at any time when a Specified Default or an Event of Default is then in existence; and
          (vi)     no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Maturity Date.
               Subject to Section 1.01(a), if by 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the third Business Day preceding the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (x) the Borrowers have failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans as provided above, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loans as a new Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans having an Interest Period of one month, or (y) the Borrowers are not permitted to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans as provided above, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Eurodollar Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans. Each deemed election under this paragraph shall be effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.
               1.08 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. (a) In the event that any Lender shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent):

(New York time)) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto. Any payments under this Agreement or under any Note which are made later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on any day shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension.

               3.04 Net Payments. (a) All payments made by the Borrowers hereunder, under any Note or under any other Credit Document will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. Except as provided in Section 3.04(b), all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding, except as provided in the second succeeding sentence, any tax imposed on or measured by the net income or net profits or franchise taxes based on net income of a Lender pursuant to the laws of the country in which it is organized or the country in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or any subdivision thereof or therein) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrowers jointly and severally agree, subject to Section 11.17 (to the extent applicable), to pay the full amount of such Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement, under any Note or under any other Credit Document, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein, in such Note or in such other Credit Document. If any amounts are payable in respect of Taxes pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Borrowers jointly and severally agree to reimburse each Lender, within ten (10) days of the written request of such Lender, for taxes imposed on or measured by the net income and net profits and franchise taxes imposed on net income of such Lender pursuant to the laws of the country in which it is organized or the country in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or under the laws of any political subdivision or taxing authority of any such country in which it is organized or the country in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located and for any withholding of taxes as such Lender shall determine are payable by, or withheld from, such Lender in respect of such amounts so paid to or on behalf of such Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence and in respect of any amounts paid to or on behalf of such Lender pursuant to this sentence. If the Borrowers pay any additional amount under this Section 3.04 to a Lender and such Lender determines in its sole discretion that it has actually received or realized in connection therewith any refund or any reduction of, or credit against, its liabilities for Taxes in or with respect to the taxable year in which the additional amount is paid (a “Tax Benefit”), such Lender shall pay to the Borrowers an amount that such Lender shall, in its sole discretion, determine is equal to the net benefit, after tax, which was obtained by such Lender in such year as a consequence of such Tax Benefit; provided, however, that (i) any Lender may determine, in its sole discretion consistent with the policies of such Lender, whether to seek a Tax Benefit; (ii) any Taxes that are imposed on a Lender as a result of a disallowance or reduction (including through the expiration of any tax credit carryover or carryback of such Lender that otherwise would not have expired) of any Tax Benefit with respect to which such Lender has made a payment to the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 3.04(a) shall be treated as Taxes for which the Borrowers are jointly and severally obligated to indemnify such Lender pursuant to this Section 3.04 without any exclusions or defenses; and (iii) nothing in this Section 3.04(a) shall require any Lender to disclose any confidential information to the Borrowers (including, without limitation, such Lender’s tax returns). The Borrowers will furnish to the Administrative Agent within 45 days after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Borrowers. The Borrowers jointly and

-16-


 

severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender within ten (10) days of its written request, for the amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.
               (b)     Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) agrees to deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Effective Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Sections 1.12 or 11.04 (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, (i) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN (with respect to a complete exemption under an income tax treaty) (or successor forms) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note, or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code) and cannot deliver either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN (with respect to a complete exemption under an income tax treaty) (or successor forms) pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C (any such certificate, a “Section 3.04(b)(ii) Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) (or successor form) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made by the Borrowers under this Agreement and under any Note. In addition, each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Effective Date, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN (with respect to the benefits of any income tax treaty), or Form W-8BEN (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) and a Section 3.04(b)(ii) Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to payments by the Borrowers under this Agreement and any Note, or it shall immediately notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any such Form or Certificate in which case such Lender shall not be required to deliver any such Form or Certificate pursuant to this Section 3.04(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 3.04(a), but subject to Section 11.04(b) and the immediately succeeding sentence, (x) the Borrowers shall be entitled, to the extent they are required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold income or similar taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes to the extent that such Lender has not provided to the Borrowers U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms that establish a complete exemption from such deduction or withholding and (y) the Borrowers shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 3.04(a) hereof to gross-up payments to be made to a Lender in respect of income or similar taxes imposed by the United States if (I) such Lender has not provided to the Borrowers the Internal Revenue Service Forms required to be provided to the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 3.04(b) or (II) in the case of a payment, other than interest, to a Lender described in clause (ii) above, to the extent that such forms do not establish a complete

-17-


 

exemption from withholding of such taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 3.04 and except as set forth in Section 11.04(b), the Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 3.04(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it as described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes that are effective after the Effective Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of income or similar Taxes (but, in the case of any amount withheld or deducted by the government of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, only if such Lender has provided the Borrowers the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a Section 3.04(b)(ii) Certificate) required to be provided pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04(b), if entitled to a reduced rate of withholding or deduction, and in such event, the payment (whether as an additional amount or under the indemnity) shall only be for the amount in excess of such reduced rate of withholding or deduction).

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted by it or them hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith, unless caused by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note; and nothing in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein.
               10.03 Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent. Independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the holder of each Note, to the extent it

-83-


 

deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectibility, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financial condition of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the financial condition of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.
               10.04 Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to request instructions from the Required Lenders at any time. If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender or the holder of any Note shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.
               10.05 Reliance. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by any Person that the Administrative Agent believed to be the proper Person, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and any other Credit Document and its duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent (which may be counsel for any of the Credit Parties) and, with respect to other matters, upon advice of independent public accountants or other experts selected by it.
               10.06 Indemnification. To the extent the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Credit Parties, the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent, in proportion to their respective “percentages” as used in determining the Required Lenders, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its respective duties hereunder or under any other Credit Document, in any way relating to or arising out

-84-


 

of this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).
               10.07 The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation to make Loans under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lenders,” “Required Lenders,” “holders of Notes” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, advisory, trust or other business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate of a Credit Party as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.
               10.08 Holders. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or indorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.
               10.09 Resignation by the Administrative Agent; Removal of the Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents at any time by giving 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.
               (b)      Upon any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder which shall be a commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers.
               (c)      If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 15 Business Day period, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrowers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall then appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall serve as Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.
               (d)      If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 20th Business Day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become

-85-


 

effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any other Credit Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.
               (e)      Upon resignation of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 10.09, the Administrative Agent shall remain indemnified to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the provisions of this Section 10 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Administrative Agent for all of its actions and inactions while serving as the Administrative Agent.
               (f)      In addition, the Required Lenders shall have the right to remove the Administrative Agent and appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall be a commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers in the event that the Administrative Agent has been grossly negligent or has willfully misconducted itself in performing its functions and duties under this Agreement.
               SECTION 11. Miscellaneous.
               11.01 Payment of Expenses, etc. The Borrowers jointly and severally shall: (i) whether or not the transactions herein contemplated are consummated, pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of (A) the Administrative Agent and its affiliates (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of White & Case LLP) in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein, and any amendment, waiver or consent relating to this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein, (B) the Administrative Agent and its affiliates in connection with their syndication efforts (including, without limitation, printing, distribution and meetings) with respect to this Agreement and (C) the Administrative Agent and its affiliates and, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, each of the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “workout” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings (including, in each case in respect of preceding clauses (A), (B) and (C) without limitation, (x) the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and consultants for the Administrative Agent and its affiliates (it being understood that, for purposes of this clause (i), the Administrative Agent and its affiliates shall be entitled to be reimbursed for one primary counsel and, to the extent that the Administrative Agent in its good faith reasonable discretion determines that additional counsel is necessary or advisable, for one or additional local or foreign counsel in each jurisdiction in which the Administrative Agent has made such a determination) and (y) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, also the reasonable fees and disbursements of only one counsel for the other Lenders as a group); (ii) pay and hold the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present and future stamp, excise and other similar documentary taxes with respect to the foregoing matters and save the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender) to pay such taxes; and (iii) indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each of their respective affiliates

-86-


 

officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents from and hold each of them harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and disbursements) incurred by, imposed on or assessed against any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, (a) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party thereto and whether or not such investigation, litigation or other proceeding is brought by or on behalf of any Credit Party) related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated herein or in any other Credit Document or the exercise of any of their rights or remedies provided herein or in the other Credit Documents, or (b) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface, water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property at any time owned, leased or operated, directly or indirectly, by any of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Person which is a Property Owner, the generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal of Hazardous Materials by any of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries at any location, whether or not owned, leased or operated by any of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries, the non-compliance of any Real Property, directly or indirectly, at any time owned, leased or operated by any of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Person which is a Property Owner, with foreign, federal, state and local laws, regulations, and ordinances (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable to such Real Property, or any Environmental Claim asserted against any of the Credit Parties, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Person which is a Property Owner, or any Real Property at any time owned, leased or operated by any of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Person which is a Property Owner, including, in each case, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other consultants incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In addition, the foregoing indemnification in favor of any director, officer, employee, representative or agent of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be solely in their respective capacities as such director, officer, employee, representative or agent. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other indemnified person set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrowers shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.
               11.02 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Credit Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of the Administrative Agent or such Lender wherever located) to or for

-87-


 

the credit or the account of any Credit Party (not including any Subsidiary of either Borrower which is not a Subsidiary Guarantor) against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Credit Parties to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section 11.06(b), and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.
               11.03 Notices.   Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telex or telecopier) and mailed, telexed, telecopied or delivered: if to any Credit Party (not including any Subsidiary of either Borrower which is not a Subsidiary Guarantor), at the address specified opposite such Credit Party’s signature below or as provided in the Subsidiaries Guaranty or the Pledge Agreement, as the case may be; if to any Lender, at its address specified on Schedule II; and if to the Administrative Agent, at the Notice Office; or, as to the Borrowers, any other such Credit Party or the Administrative Agent, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto and, as to each Lender, at such other address as shall be designated by such Lender in a written notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. All such notices and communications shall, when mailed, telexed or telecopied, or sent by overnight courier, be effective (x) three Business Days after deposited in the mails, (y) one Business Day after delivered to a recognized overnight courier, as the case may be, or (z) when sent by telex or telecopier, except that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers, as the case may be.
               11.04 Benefit of Agreement; Assignments; Participations.   (a)   This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, the Credit Parties may not assign or transfer any of their respective rights, obligations or interest hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the prior written consent of all the Lenders (and any attempted such assignment or transfer without such consent shall be null and void) and, provided further, that, although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder and the transferee, assignee or participant, as the case may be, shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and, provided further, that no Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement or to Section 11.07(a) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or Fees payable hereunder), or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment (or the available portion thereof) or Loan shall be permitted

-88-


 

without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof) or (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrowers if formed of any of their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement. In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.
               (b)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $1,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning Lender or assigning Lenders (provided that, in the case of an assignment pursuant to this clause at a time when no Specified Default or Event of Default exists, to the extent that the assignor Lender is to retain a Commitment after giving effect to such assignment, such Commitment shall be in an amount equal to at least $1,000,000 and Related Funds shall be aggregated in determining compliance with such minimum assignment amount), of such Commitment or Commitments and/or outstanding Obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees, each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided that (i) at such time Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) upon the surrender of the Note or Notes by the assigning Lender (or, upon such assigning Lender’s indemnifying the Borrowers for any lost Note pursuant to a customary indemnification agreement) new Notes will be issued, at the Borrowers’ expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender upon the request of such new Lender or assigning Lender, such new Notes to be in conformity with the requirements of Section 1.03 (with appropriate modifications) to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, (iii) the written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required in connection with any assignment to an Eligible Transferee pursuant to this Section 11.04(b), (iv) the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500, and (v) promptly after such assignment, the Borrowers shall have received from the Administrative Agent notice of any such assignment and of the identity, nationality and applicable lending office of any such Eligible Transferee that is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), together with the copy of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement relating thereto and, provided further, that such transfer or assignment will not be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 11.15. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments and/or outstanding Loans. At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 11.04(b) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder and which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes, the respective assignee Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to the Borrowers the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a Section 3.04(b)(ii) Certificate) described in Section 3.04(b). To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Commitments and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 1.09 or this Section 11.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 1.08 or 3.04 in excess of those being charged by the respective assigning

-89-


 

Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such excess increased costs (although the Borrowers, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay the costs which are not in excess of those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment and any subsequent increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (“SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement, provided that (i) such Granting Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Granting Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Granting Lender in connection with such Granting Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iv) no SPC shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such grant of funding option, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such grant of funding option, (v) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (vi) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the applicable Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent and as if such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.04(b), any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis consistent with the restrictions set forth in Section 11.16 any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.
               (c)      Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings

-90-


 

made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank and, with prior notice to the Administrative Agent, any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Notes or Loans to its trustee or to a collateral agent providing credit or credit support to such Lender in support of its obligations to its trustee or such collateral agent, as the case may be. No pledge pursuant to this clause (c) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.
               11.05 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. (a) No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between any Credit Party and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.
               (b)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, it is understood and agreed by the various parties to this Agreement that all Obligations to repay principal of, interest on, and all other amounts with respect to, outstanding Loans (including, without limitation, all fees, indemnities, taxes and other Obligations in connection therewith or in connection with the related Commitments) shall constitute the joint and several obligations of the Borrowers. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is receiving direct benefits as a result of the extensions of credit to the Borrowers hereunder, and that the Lenders may proceed against one or more of the Borrowers with respect to any Obligations hereunder for the payment in full thereof.
               (c)      The Obligations of each Borrower hereunder and under the other Credit Documents are independent of the obligations hereunder and thereunder of the other Borrower or any other guarantor, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against either Borrower, whether or not the other Borrower or any other guarantor is joined in any such action or actions. Each Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by either of the Borrowers or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to such Borrower shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, operate to toll the statute of limitations as to each Borrower.
               (d)      With respect to the Obligations, each of the Borrowers authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Lenders without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to: (i) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the other Borrower or any guarantor or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting; (ii) release or substitute the other Borrower, endorsers, guarantors or other obligors; (iii) settle or compromise

-91-


 

any of the Obligations of the other Borrower or any other Credit Party, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of any Borrower to its creditors other than the Lenders; (iv) apply any sums paid by the other Borrower or any other Person, howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of such Borrower regardless of what liability or liabilities of such Borrower remain unpaid; and/or (v) consent to or waive any breach of, or act, omission or default under, this Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein, or otherwise, by the other Borrower or any other Person.
               (e)     (i) To the extent that either of the Borrowers shall make a payment or payments under this Agreement of all or any of the Obligations (with all such payments by either Borrower being herein called “Borrower Payments”) which, taking into account all other Borrower Payments then previously or concurrently made by the other Borrower, exceeds the amount which such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid its Loan Percentage of the aggregate Obligations satisfied by Borrower Payments, then, following the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments, such Borrower shall entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, the other Borrower for the amount of such excess.
               (ii)      To the extent that either of the Borrowers shall make a payment or payments under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents of all or any of the Obligations for the benefit of the other Borrower, then the Borrower making such payment shall, following the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments, be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, the other Borrower for the amount of each such payment (it being understood that if each Borrower has made payments of the type described above with respect to Obligations for the benefit of the other Borrower, then the amounts so paid by each Borrower shall be netted in determining the amount of contribution and indemnification owed by each Borrower to the other Borrower pursuant to this clause (ii)).
               (iii)      As used herein, the “Loan Percentage” of each Borrower shall be (a) prior to the date that the last Acquired Asset has been conveyed to the Trizec QEAA Lessee or Trizec QEAA Party, either pursuant to the applicable Qualified Exchange Accommodation Agreement or in satisfaction of condition (vi) of the definition of 1031 Exchange Conditions (the “1031 Completion Date”), 22% in the case of TPRE and 78% in the case of TCH, and (b) following the 1031 Completion Date, a percentage the numerator of which is the sum of the Purchase Price Allocation shown on Schedule 5.24 for each Acquired Property owned on the date of determination directly or indirectly by such Borrower and the denominator of which is the aggregate Purchase Price Allocations shown on Schedule 5.24 for the Acquired Properties owned on the date of determination directly or indirectly by either Borrower.
               (iv)      All determinations of contribution rights pursuant to this Section 11.05 shall be determined by Trizec and the Borrowers in good faith. Trizec and each Borrower agree to maintain records to enable them to determine the Loan Percentages, as well as all other facts needed to determine the relative rights of contribution, pursuant to this Section 11.05.

-92-


 

               (v)      Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that, to the extent any court determines that the contribution, indemnity and reimbursement rights provided above in this Section 11.05 are not fair and equitable to each of the Borrowers, then such court may (and is hereby authorized to) adjust the contribution, indemnity and reimbursement rights of the Borrowers as determined by such court to be necessary or desirable to more fairly provide for contribution, indemnification and reimbursement rights as between the Borrowers, it being the intention of each of the Borrowers that such adjustment shall in any event be made if, and to the extent, any such adjustment would prevent the joint and several nature of their obligations hereunder from constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or any similar Federal or state law.
               (vi)      This Section 11.05 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Borrowers and nothing set forth in this Section 11.05 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
               (vii)      The rights of the parties under this Section 11.05 (and any rights of subrogation a Borrower may have with respect to the other Borrower as a result of any payments made by it hereunder or under any other Credit Document) shall be exercisable only upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations in cash and the termination of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
               (viii)      The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution, indemnification and reimbursement hereunder shall constitute assets of the Borrower to which such contribution, indemnification and reimbursement is owing.
               (f)      Each Borrower waives any right to require the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to (i) proceed against the other Borrower, any guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the other Borrower, any guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ power whatsoever. Each Borrower waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the other Borrower, any guarantor or any other party other than payment in full in cash of the respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the disability of the other Borrower, any guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the other Borrower, in each case other than as a result of the payment in full in cash of the respective Obligations. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by one or more judicial or non-judicial sales (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may have against either of the Borrowers or any other Person, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of either of the Borrowers hereunder except to the extent the respective Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Each Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defense arising out of any such election by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation

or other right or remedy of such Borrower against the other Borrower or any other guarantor or party or any security.
               (g)      Each Borrower hereby confirms that it is its intention that this Agreement not constitute (and the joint and several nature of the Obligations among the Borrowers not create) a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or any similar Federal, state or foreign law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that the Obligations owing by each Borrower shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise) liabilities of such Borrower that are relevant under such laws, result in the Obligations of such Borrower in respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intent of the parties hereto that in no event shall the Obligations of Trizec be limited pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.05 as Trizec is the indirect parent of each of the Borrowers and, accordingly, is obtaining direct benefits from all extensions of credit to the Borrowers. Any limitation on the Obligations of either of the Borrowers resulting from the application of the provisions of this Section 11.05 shall have no effect on the Obligations of the other Borrower or the Obligations of any other Credit Party, which (in each case) shall be determined as if there were no such limitation, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
               11.06 Payments Pro Rata. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrowers in respect of any Obligations hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of any such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.
               (b)      Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise, except as a result of Sections 1.12 or 11.04), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or Fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the Borrowers to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.
               (c)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 11.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders.

-94-


 

               11.07 Calculations; Computations. (a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrowers to the Lenders and except, in the case of interim financial statements, for normal year-end adjustments); provided that except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all computations determining the Borrowers’ compliance with Section 7 and the definition of Applicable Margin and all other defined financial terms relating to the Borrowers shall utilize accounting principles and policies in the United States in conformity with those used to prepare the historical financial statements described in Section 5.05(a); and provided further, that the financial covenants set forth in Sections 6.11 and 7.10-7.13 shall assume that Trizec owns 100% of the Equity Interests in the Borrowers.
               (b)      All computations of interest and Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Fees are payable; provided that all computations of interest on Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Prime Lending Rate shall be based on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 days (or 366 days, as the case maybe).
               11.08 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.
               11.10 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the date (the “Effective Date”) on which (i) the Borrowers, Trizec, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have signed a counterpart hereof (whether the same or different counterparts) and shall have delivered the same to the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office or, in the case of the Lenders, shall have given to the Administrative Agent telephonic (confirmed in writing), written or telex notice (actually received) at such office that the same has been signed and mailed to it and (ii) the conditions contained in Section 4 are met to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and, unless otherwise specified therein, the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent has received actual notice from any Lender that the conditions described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence have not been met to its satisfaction, upon the satisfaction of the condition described in clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence and upon the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that the conditions described in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence have been met, then the Effective Date shall have been deemed to have occurred, regardless of any subsequent determination that one or more of the conditions thereto had not been met (although the occurrence of the Effective Date shall not release the Borrowers from any liability for failure to satisfy one or more of the applicable conditions contained in

-96-


 

Section 4). The Administrative Agent shall give the Borrowers and each Lender prompt written notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date.
               11.11 Headings Descriptive. The headings of the several sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.
               11.12 Amendment or Waiver; etc. (a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any terms hereof or thereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders, provided that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) (with Obligations being directly modified in the case of the following clause (i)), (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note beyond the Maturity Date, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon or Fees (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement or to Section 11.07(a) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate or interest or Fees for the purposes of this clause (i)), (ii) release Trizec, Holdings, THOPI or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their respective obligations under the Guaranty or the Pledge Agreement to which it is (or they are) a party or release all or substantially all of the collateral pledged under the Pledge Agreement (except, in each case, as expressly permitted by the Credit Documents), (iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 11.12 (except for technical amendments with respect to additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement which afford the protections to such additional extensions of credit of the type provided to the Commitments on the Effective Date), (iv) amend the definition of Required Lenders or (v) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrowers or Trizec or any other Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided further, that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall (1) increase the Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender, (2) without the consent of the Administrative Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 11 or any other provision as same relates to the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent.
               (b)      If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination to any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by clauses (i) through (v), inclusive, of the first proviso to Section 11.12(a), the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then the Borrowers shall have the right, so long as all non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either clause (A) or (B) below, to either (A) replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 1.12 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination or (B) terminate such non-consenting Lender’s Commitments and/or repay all outstanding Loans of such Lender in accordance with Section 3.01(b), provided that, unless the Commitments that are terminated, and

-97-


 

Loans repaid, pursuant to preceding clause (B) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to preceding clause (B) the Required Lenders (determined after giving effect to the proposed action) shall specifically consent thereto; provided further, that in any event the Borrowers shall not have the right to replace a Lender or repay its Loans solely as a result of the exercise of such Lender’s rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Lender) pursuant to the second proviso to Section 11.12(a).
               11.13 Survival. All indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Sections 1.08, 1.09, 3.04, 10.06 and 11.01 shall survive the execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the Obligations.
               11.14 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 11.14 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Sections 1.08, 1.09, or 3.04 in excess of those being charged by the respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such excess increased costs (although the Borrowers, jointly and severally, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay the costs which would apply in the absence of such designation and any subsequent increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective transfer).
               11.15 Register. The Borrowers hereby designate the Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrowers’ agent, solely for purposes of this Section 11.15, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrowers’ obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitment of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to this Agreement shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 11.04(b). Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Commitment and any related Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender at the request of such Lender. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its duties under this Section 11.15, provided that each Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent for

-98-


 

any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent that same resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).
               11.16 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees that it will (x) use its reasonable efforts not to disclose without the prior consent of the Borrowers (other than to its affiliates and to its or its affiliates’ respective employees, officers, auditors, examiners, advisors or counsel or to another Lender if the Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its reasonable good faith discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.16 to the same extent as such Lender) any non-public information with respect to any of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document by the Borrowers or Trizec and (y) use any such non-public information (A) for purposes relating to this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, in connection with (i) the evaluation, administration, monitoring or enforcement of any of the Credit Documents or the Obligations or (ii) satisfying or cooperating in any Person’s regulatory or other compliance requirements) or (B) in connection with other services at the request or for the benefit of Trizec, the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries, provided that any Lender may disclose any such information (a) as has become generally available to the public, (b) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or any of its affiliates or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (c) as may be required or appropriate in respect of any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (d) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender or any of its affiliates, (e) to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and (f) to any pledgee referred to in Section 11.04(c) or any prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender, provided that such pledgee or prospective transferee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.16.
               11.17 Limitation on Additional Amounts, etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 1.08, 1.09 or 3.04, unless a Lender gives notice to the Borrowers that it is obligated to pay an amount under the respective Section within 180 days after the later of (x) the date the Lender incurs the respective increased costs, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital or (y) the date such Lender has actual knowledge of its incurrence of the respective increased costs, loss, expense or liability, reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, then such Lender shall only be entitled to be compensated for such amount by the Borrowers pursuant to said Sections 1.08, 1.09 or 3.04, as the case may be, to the extent the costs, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital are incurred or suffered on or after the date which occurs 180 days prior to such Lender giving notice to the Borrowers that it is obligated to pay the respective amounts pursuant to said Sections 1.08, 1.09, or 3.04, as the case may be; provided, however, that if the circumstances giving rise to such claims have a retroactive effect, such 180-day period shall be extended to

-99-


 

include the period of such retroactive effect. This Section 11.17 shall have no applicability to any Section of this Agreement other than said Sections 1.08, 1.09 or 3.04.
               11.18 No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective permitted successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
               11.19 Waiver of Sovereign Immunity. To the extent that any Credit 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, such Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations hereunder to the extent permitted by applicable law and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, agrees that the waivers set forth in this Section 11.19 shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act.
               11.20 Judgment Currency. (a) The Credit Parties’ obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents to make payments in Dollars (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or the respective Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Credit Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent in good faith or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).
               (b)      If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, each Borrower jointly and severally covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.
               (c)      For purposes of determining any rate of exchange for this Section 11.20, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

               11.21 Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that all agreements among them under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the money loaned to the Borrowers and evidenced hereby or thereby or for the performance or payment of any covenant or obligation contained herein or therein, exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If due to any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents at the time performance of such provision shall be due shall exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, then, automatically, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be modified or reduced to the extent necessary to limit such interest to the Highest Lawful Rate, and if from any such circumstance any Lender should ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law which would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, such excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount then outstanding hereunder or on account of any other then outstanding Obligations and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the principal unpaid balance then outstanding hereunder and such other then outstanding Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrowers. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Obligations and other Indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Indebtedness until payment in full so that the actual rate of interest on account of all such Indebtedness does not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate throughout the entire term of such Indebtedness. The terms and provisions of this Section 11.21 shall control every other provision of this Agreement and all agreements among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
               11.22 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it may be required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers and the other Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, which information includes the name and address of such Persons and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Persons in accordance with the Act, and the Borrowers and Trizec agree to provide such information from time to time to any Lender.
               SECTION 12. Trizec Guaranty.
               12.01 Guaranty. In order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by Trizec from the proceeds of the Loans, Trizec hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors as follows: Trizec hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors. If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors becomes due and payable hereunder, Trizec, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such indebtedness to the Administrative Agent and/or the other Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, together with any and all expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative

-101-


 

Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors in collecting any of the Guaranteed Obligations. If claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including the Borrowers), then and in such event Trizec agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon Trizec, notwithstanding any revocation of this Trizec Guaranty or other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrowers, and Trizec shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.
               12.02 Bankruptcy. Additionally, Trizec unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors whether or not due or payable by the Borrowers upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 8.05, and irrevocably and unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States.
               12.03 Nature of Liability. The liability of Trizec hereunder is primary, absolute and unconditional, exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether executed by any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of Trizec hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrowers or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Guaranteed Obligations, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrowers, or (e) any payment made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Guaranteed Obligations which any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to the Borrowers pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and Trizec waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, or (f) any action or inaction by the Guaranteed Creditors as contemplated in Section 12.05, or (g) any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any security therefor.
               12.04 Independent Obligation. The obligations of Trizec hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrowers, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Trizec whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrowers and whether or not any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrowers be joined in any such action or actions. Trizec waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by the Borrowers or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to the Borrowers shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to Trizec.

-102-


 

               12.05 Authorization. Trizec authorizes the Guaranteed Creditors without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to:
          (i)      change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and this Trizec Guaranty shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;
          (ii)      take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset thereagainst;
          (iii)      exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrowers, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;
          (iv)      release or substitute any of the Borrowers or other Credit Parties or one or more endorsers, guarantors or other obligors;
          (v)      settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrowers to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors;
          (vi)      apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of the Borrowers to the Guaranteed Creditors regardless of what liability or liabilities of the Borrowers remain unpaid;
          (vii)      consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or
          (viii)      take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of Trizec from its liabilities under this Trizec Guaranty.
               12.06 Reliance. It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of Trizec or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Guaranteed Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

-103-


 

               12.07 Subordination.   Any indebtedness of any Borrowers now or hereafter owing to Trizec is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations owing to the Guaranteed Creditors; and if the Administrative Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such indebtedness of the Borrowers to Trizec shall be collected, enforced and received by Trizec for the benefit of the Guaranteed Creditors and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of Trizec under the other provisions of this Trizec Guaranty. Prior to the transfer by Trizec of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing any such indebtedness of any Borrower to Trizec, Trizec shall mark such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is subject to this subordination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Trizec hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Trizec Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.
               12.08 Waiver. (a) Trizec waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against the Borrowers, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrowers, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever. Trizec waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrowers, any other guarantor or any other party, other than payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment, based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrowers, Trizec, any other guarantor or any other party, or the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrowers other than payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment. The Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have against the Borrowers or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of Trizec hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid. Trizec waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of Trizec against the Borrowers or any other party or any security.
               (b)      Trizec waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Trizec Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations. Trizec 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 which Trizec assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Guaranteed Creditors shall have any duty to advise Trizec of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

-104-


 

               12.09 Payments. All payments made by Trizec pursuant to this Section 12 shall be made in Dollars and will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.03 and 3.04.
               12.10 Maximum Liability. It is the desire and intent of Trizec and the Guaranteed Creditors that this Trizec Guaranty shall be enforced against Trizec to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If, however, and to the extent that, the obligations of Trizec under this Trizec Guaranty shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of Trizec’s obligations under this Trizec Guaranty shall be deemed to be reduced and Trizec shall pay the maximum amount of the Guaranteed Obligations which would be permissible under applicable law.

          (b)    each Pledgor authorizes the Pledgee from time to time to cause appropriate financing statements (on appropriate forms) under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the various relevant States, covering all Collateral hereunder (with the form of such financing statements to be satisfactory to the Pledgee), to be filed in the relevant filing offices so that at all times the Pledgee’s security interest hereunder in all Collateral which can be perfected by the filing of such financing statements (in each case to the maximum extent perfection by filing may be obtained under the laws of the relevant States, including, without limitation, Section 9-312(a) of the UCC) is so perfected.
               3.03 Subsequently Acquired Collateral. If any Pledgor shall acquire (by purchase, stock dividend, distribution or otherwise) any additional Collateral at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, such Collateral shall automatically (and without any further action being required to be taken) be subject to the pledge and security interests created pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof and, furthermore, in addition to any action required to be taken with respect to the Partnership Interests and Limited Liability Company Interests pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, such Pledgor will promptly thereafter deliver to the Pledgee (i) a certificate executed by an authorized officer of such Pledgor describing such Partnership Interests or Limited Liability Company Interests and certifying that the same have been duly pledged in favor of the Pledgee (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) hereunder and (ii) supplements to Annexes A through E hereto as are necessary to cause such Annexes to be complete and accurate at such time.

               SECTION 5. VOTING, ETC., WHILE NO EVENT OF DEFAULT OR SPECIFIED DEFAULT.   Unless and until there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default or a Specified Default, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Collateral owned by it, exercise the rights set forth in Sections 3.1(a)(E) and 3.1(b)(E) hereof and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof; provided that, in each case, no vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken or omitted to be taken which would violate, result in a breach of any covenant contained in, or be inconsistent with any of the terms of any Secured Debt Agreement, or which could reasonably be expected to have the effect of materially impairing the value of the Collateral or any part thereof or the position or interests of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor in the Collateral, unless expressly permitted by the terms of the Secured Debt Agreements. All such rights of each Pledgor to vote, exercise the rights set forth in Sections 3.1(a)(E) and 3.1(b)(E) hereof and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease in case an Event of Default or a Specified Default has occurred and is continuing, and Section 7 hereof shall become applicable.

Except as expressly provided in this Section, all dividends, distributions or other payments which are received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6 or Section 7 hereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Pledgee (on behalf of the Secured Creditors), shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Pledgee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

               SECTION 7. REMEDIES IN CASE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT OR A SPECIFIED DEFAULT.   (a) If there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, then and in every such case, the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies (whether vested in it by this Agreement, any other Secured Debt Agreement or by law) for the protection and enforcement of its rights in respect of the Collateral, and the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction and also shall be entitled, without limitation, to exercise the following rights, which each Pledgor hereby agrees to be commercially reasonable:
          (a)    to receive all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral otherwise payable under Section 6 hereof to the respective Pledgor;
          (b)    to transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Pledgee’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees in accordance with any applicable provisions of the UCC;
          (c)    to vote (and exercise all rights and powers in respect of voting) all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Pledgee) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so);
          (d)    at any time and from time to time to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to sell or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise purchase or dispose of (all of which are hereby waived by each Pledgor), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine, provided at least 10 days’ written notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to the respective Pledgor.    The Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security or the Obligations or otherwise.    At any such sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Pledgee on behalf of the Secured Creditors may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. Neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall any of them be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto; and
          (e)    to set off any and all Collateral against any and all Obligations and to apply such Collateral to the payment of any and all Obligations.

               (b)    If there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default under Section 8.05 of the Credit Agreement, then and in every such case, the Pledgee shall be entitled to vote (and exercise all rights and powers in respect of voting) all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Pledgee) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so).
               SECTION 8. REMEDIES, CUMULATIVE, ETC.   Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement or in any other Secured Debt Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Secured Debt Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Pledgee, in each case, acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement and the other Secured Debt Agreements.
               SECTION 9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. (a) All moneys collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, together with all other monies received by the Pledgee hereunder, shall be applied as follows:
          (a)    first, to the payment of all amounts owing to the Pledgee of the type described in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of the definition of “Obligations”;
          (b)    second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), to the payment of all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent of the type described in clauses (iv) and (v) of the definition of “Obligations”;
          (c)    third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(e) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Primary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

 


 

Exhibit H
Page 12
          (d)   fourth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, an amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(e) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Secondary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and
          (e)   fifth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iv), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20 hereof, to the relevant Pledgor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
               (b)   For purposes of this Agreement, (x) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, (y) “Primary Obligations” shall mean, in the case of the Credit Document Obligations, all principal of, premium, fees and interest on, all Loans and all Fees and (z) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations.
               (c)   When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 9 only) (i) first, to their Primary Obligations and (ii) second, to their Secondary Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.
               (d)   All payments required to be made hereunder to the Secured Creditors shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Secured Creditors.
               (e)   For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 9, the Pledgee shall be entitled to rely upon the Administrative Agent for a determination (which the Administrative Agent agrees (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Pledgee) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the Secured Creditors. Unless it has received written notice from a Secured Creditor to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding.

               SECTION 10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.
               SECTION 11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless the Pledgee and each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents and affiliates (individually an “Indemnitee”, and collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all obligations, damages, injuries, penalties, claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including, without limitation, liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs, expenses and disbursements, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, in each case incurred by, imposed on or assessed against any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Pledgee or any other Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not such investigation, litigation or other proceeding is brought by or on behalf of any Credit Party) related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement or any transactions contemplated herein or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under any other Secured Debt Agreement (but excluding any obligations, damages, injuries, penalties, claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including, without limitation, liabilities for penalties) or expenses of whatsoever kind or nature to the extent incurred or arising by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In addition, the foregoing indemnification in favor of any director, officer, employee, representative or agent of the Pledgee or any other Indemnitee shall be solely in their respective capacities as such director, officer, employee, representative or agent. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless the Pledgee or any other Indemnitee set forth in this Section 11 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Pledgor shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. In no event shall the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor be liable, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision), for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for monies or other property actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. The indemnity obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 11 shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the full payment of all the Notes issued under the Credit Agreement and the payment of all other Obligations and notwithstanding the discharge thereof.
               SECTION 12. PLEDGEE NOT A PARTNER OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY MEMBER. (i) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties,

obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner in any partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Pledgee shall become the absolute owner of Collateral consisting of a Limited Liability Company Interest or a Partnership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Pledgee, any other Secured Creditor, any Pledgor and/or any other Person.
               (ii)   Except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12, the Pledgee, by accepting this Agreement, and the other Secured Creditors did not intend to become a member of any limited liability company or a partner of any partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to any Pledgor, any limited liability company, partnership and/or any other Person either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred. The Pledgee shall have only those powers set forth herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership or any Pledgor except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.
               (iii)   The Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Pledgor as a result of the pledge hereby effected.
               (iv)   The acceptance by the Pledgee of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under or in respect of the Collateral.
               SECTION 13. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (i) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and refile under the UCC or other applicable law such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents, in form reasonably acceptable to the Pledgee, in such offices as the Pledgee (acting on its own or on the instructions of the Required Lenders) may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate and wherever required or permitted by law in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral hereunder and hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements and amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral (including, without limitation, (x) financing statements which list the Collateral specifically as collateral and (y) “in lieu of” financing statements) without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require or deem advisable to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder or thereunder.
               (ii)   Each Pledgor hereby constitutes and appoints the Pledgee its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, irrevocably, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the Pledgee’s discretion, to act, require, demand, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies and claims for monies due or to become due such

               SECTION 15. TRANSFER BY THE PLEDGORS.

In addition, to the extent that any Pledgor does not have an organizational identification number on the date hereof and later obtains one, such Pledgor shall promptly thereafter deliver a notification of the Administrative Agent of such organizational identification number and shall take all actions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary to maintain the security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby fully perfected and in full force and effect.
               SECTION 18. PLEDGORS’ OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE, ETC. The obligations of each Pledgor under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever (other than termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20 hereof), including, without limitation:
          (a)   any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of, or addition or supplement to or deletion from, any Secured Debt Agreement (other than this Agreement in accordance with its terms), or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof;
          (b)   any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such agreement or instrument including, without limitation, this Agreement (other than a waiver, consent or extension with respect to this Agreement in accordance with its terms);

 


 

Exhibit H
Page 18
          (c) any furnishing of any additional security to the Pledgee or its assignee or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by the Pledgee or its assignee;
          (d) any limitation on any party’s liability or obligations under any such instrument or agreement or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such instrument or agreement or any term thereof; or
          (e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to any Pledgor or any Subsidiary of any Pledgor, or any action taken with respect to this Agreement by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not such Pledgor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing.
               SECTION 19. SALE OF COLLATERAL WITHOUT REGISTRATION. If at any time when the Pledgee shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any part of the Collateral consisting of Limited Liability Company Interests or Partnership Interests pursuant to Section 7 hereof, and such Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Securities Act, as then in effect, the Pledgee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell such Collateral or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Pledgee may deem necessary or advisable in order that such sale may legally be effected without such registration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (ii) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Collateral or part thereof. In the event of any such sale, the Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Collateral at a price which the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until the registration as aforesaid.
               SECTION 20. TERMINATION; RELEASE. (i) On the Termination Date (as defined below), this Agreement shall terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Section 11 hereof shall survive any such termination) and the Pledgee, at the request and expense of each Pledgor, will execute and deliver to such Pledgor a proper instrument or instruments (including UCC termination statements) acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement (including, without limitation, UCC termination statements and instruments of satisfaction, discharge and/or reconveyance), and will duly release from the security interest created hereby and assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral of such Pledgor as may be in the possession of the Pledgee and as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement, together with any moneys at the time held by the Pledgee or any of its sub-agents hereunder and, with respect to any Collateral consisting of an Uncertificated Security, a Partnership Interest or a Limited Liability Company Interest (other than an Uncertificated Security, Partnership Interest or Limited Liability Company Interest

As used in this Agreement, “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which the Commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated, no Note (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is outstanding (and all Loans have been paid in full), and all other Obligations (other than indemnities described in Section 11 hereof and described in Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement, and any other indemnities set forth in any other Security Documents, in each case which are not then due and payable) then due and payable have been paid in full.
               (ii)      In the event that any part of the Collateral of any Pledgor is sold or otherwise disposed of (to a Person other than a Credit Party) at any time prior to the time at which all Obligations have been paid in full and all Commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated, in connection with a sale or disposition permitted by Section 7.02 of the Credit Agreement or is otherwise released at the direction of the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required by Section 11.12 of the Credit Agreement), and the proceeds of such sale or disposition (or from such release) are applied in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or such other Secured Debt Agreement, as the case may be, to the extent required to be so applied, the Pledgee, at the request and expense of such Pledgor, will duly release from the security interest created hereby (and will execute and deliver such documentation, including termination or partial release statements and the like in connection therewith) and assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold or released and as may be in the possession of the Pledgee (or, in the case of Collateral held by any sub-agent designated pursuant to Section 4 hereto, such sub-agent) and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement.
               (iii)      At any time that any Pledgor desires that Collateral be released as provided in the foregoing Section 20(a) or (b) hereof, it shall deliver to the Pledgee (and the relevant sub-agent, if any, designated pursuant to Section 4 hereof) a certificate signed by an authorized officer of such Pledgor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to Section 20(a) or (b) hereof.
               (iv)      The Pledgee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as the result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with (or which the Administrative Agent in good faith believes to be in accordance with) this Section 20.
               SECTION 21. NOTICES, ETC. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telex or telecopier) and mailed, telexed, telecopied or delivered to the addresses set forth below. All such notices and communications shall, when mailed, telexed or telecopied, or sent by overnight courier, be effective (x) three Business Days after deposited in the mails, (y) one Business Day after delivered to a recognized overnight courier, or (z) when sent by telex or telecopier, except that notices and communications to the Pledgee or any Pledgor shall not be effective until received by the Pledgee or such Pledgor, as the case may be.

WAIVER; AMENDMENT.  None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever unless in writing signed by each Pledgor directly affected thereby (it being understood that the release of any Pledgor hereunder shall not constitute a change, waiver discharge or termination affecting any Pledgor other than the Pledgor so released) and the Administrative Agent (with the written consent of the Required Lenders or all Lenders if required by Section 11.12 of the Credit Agreement).
               SECTION 23. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect, subject to release and/or termination as set forth in Section 20 hereof, (ii) be binding upon each Pledgor, its successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Pledgor shall assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Pledgee (with the prior written consent of all Lenders), and (iii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Pledgee hereunder, to the benefit of the Pledgee, the other Secured Creditors and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.

               SECTION 28. SEVERABILITY.  Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
               SECTION 29. RECOURSE.  This Agreement is made with full recourse to the Collateral and pursuant to and upon all the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements on the part of such Pledgor contained herein and in the other Secured Debt Agreements and otherwise in writing in connection herewith or therewith.

RELEASE OF PLEDGORS.  If at any time all or a portion of the Collateral owned by a Pledgor is sold in a transaction permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement (and which does not violate the terms of any other Secured Debt Agreement then in effect), then, provided that all conditions to such transaction are satisfied (including, without limitation, the making of any mandatory repayments required pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Credit Agreement), such Collateral and, to the extent such Pledgor does not own any other Collateral, such Pledgor shall be released pursuant to this Agreement without any further action hereunder, and the Pledgee is authorized and directed to execute and deliver such instruments of release as are reasonably satisfactory to it.

ANNEX E
Form of Agreement Regarding Uncertificated Securities
                         AGREEMENT (as amended, amended and restated, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of                     , among the undersigned pledgor (the “Pledgor”), [                    ], Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, not in its individual capacity but solely as Administrative Agent (the “Pledgee”), and [                    ], as the issuer of the Uncertificated Securities, Limited Liability Company Interests and/or Partnership Interests (each as defined below) (the “Issuer”).
W I T N E S S E T H :
                         WHEREAS, the Pledgor, certain of its affiliates and the Pledgee have entered into a Pledge Agreement, dated as of May 2, 2006 (as amended, amended and restated, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Pledge Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Obligations (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), the Pledgor has pledged or will pledge to the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), and grant a security interest in favor of the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in, all of the right, title and interest of the Pledgor in and to any and all [“uncertificated securities” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(18) of the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted in the State of New York) (“Uncertificated Securities”)] [Partnership Interests (as defined in the Pledge Agreement)] [Limited Liability Company Interests (as defined in the Pledge Agreement)], from time to time issued by the Issuer, whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired by the Pledgor (with all of such [Uncertificated Securities] [Partnership Interests] [Limited Liability Company Interests] being herein collectively called the “Issuer Pledged Interests”); and
                         WHEREAS, the Pledgor desires the Issuer to enter into this Agreement in order to perfect the security interest of the Pledgee under the Pledge Agreement in the Issuer Pledged Interests, to vest in the Pledgee control of the Issuer Pledged Interests and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement;
                         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
                         1. The Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Issuer, and the Issuer hereby agrees, to comply with any and all instructions and orders originated by the Pledgee (and its successors and assigns) regarding any and all of the Issuer Pledged Interests without the further consent by the registered owner (including the Pledgor), and, following its receipt of a notice from the Pledgee stating that the Pledgee is exercising exclusive control of the Issuer Pledged Interests, not to comply with any instructions or orders regarding any or all of the Issuer Pledged Interests originated by any person or entity other than the Pledgee (and its successors and assigns) or a court of competent jurisdiction.

 


 

Annex E
Page 2
                          2. The Issuer hereby certifies that (i) no notice of any security interest, lien or other encumbrance or claim affecting the Issuer Pledged Interests (other than the security interest of the Pledgee) has been received by it, and (ii) the security interest of the Pledgee in the Issuer Pledged Interests has been registered in the books and records of the Issuer.
                         3. The Issuer hereby represents and warrants that (i) the pledge by the Pledgor of, and the granting by the Pledgor of a security interest in, the Issuer Pledged Interests to the Pledgee, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, does not violate the charter, by-laws, partnership agreement, membership agreement or any other agreement governing the Issuer or the Issuer Pledged Interests, and (ii) the Issuer Pledged Interests consisting of capital stock of a corporation are fully paid and nonassessable.
                         4. All notices, statements of accounts, reports, prospectuses, financial statements and other communications to be sent to the Pledgor by the Issuer in respect of the Issuer will also be sent to the Pledgee at the following address:

Attention: [                                        ]
Telephone No.: [                                        ]
Telecopier No.: [                                        ]
                         5. Following its receipt of a notice from the Pledgee stating that the Pledgee is exercising exclusive control of the Issuer Pledged Interests and until the Pledgee shall have delivered written notice to the Issuer that all of the Obligations have been paid in full and this Agreement is terminated, the Issuer will send any and all redemptions, distributions, interest or other payments in respect of the Issuer Pledged Interests from the Issuer for the account of the Pledgee only by wire transfers to such account as the Pledgee shall instruct.
                          6. Except as expressly provided otherwise in Sections 4 and 5, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telex or telecopier) and mailed, telexed, telecopied or delivered to the addresses set forth below. All such notices and communications shall, when mailed, telexed or telecopied, or sent by overnight courier, be effective (x) three Business Days after deposited in the mails, (y) one Business Day after delivered to a recognized overnight courier, as the case may be, or (z) when sent by telex or telecopier, except that notices and communications to the Pledgor or the Issuer shall not be effective until received by the Pledgor or the Issuer, as the case may be.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one instrument. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall prove to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement which shall remain binding on all parties hereto. None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever except in writing signed by the Pledgee, the Issuer and the Pledgor.
                    8. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its principles of conflict of laws.
