2

 
 
 
(i)           immediately prior to any Extension and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
 
(ii)           to the extent required by the applicable Extending Term Loan Lenders and/or Extending Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, all of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8 of the Credit Agreement and each other Credit Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on the date of the Extension, both before and after giv­ing effect to the Extension, with the same effect as though such represen­tations and warranties had been made on and as of the date of the Extension, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date;
 
(iii)           in the case of any Extension with respect to a Revolving Loan Commitment, except as to interest rates, fees, terms relating to mandatory prepayments and commitment reductions, and final maturity (which shall, subject to the immediately succeeding proviso, be determined by the Borrower and the relevant Lenders and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Loan Commitment of any Lender (each, an “Extending Revolving Lender”) extended pursuant to an Extension (each, an “Extended Revolving Loan Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Loan Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with such other terms identical or, in respect of covenants and  events of default, not materially more favorable to the Extending Revolving Lenders than, the original Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (1) each borrowing, each voluntary prepayment and commitment reduction and each mandatory repayment and commitment reduction with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments (and related obligations) after the closing date of any Extension shall be made on a pro rata basis with each other Tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments (and related obligations), except for (A) repayments and commitment reductions required upon the Maturity Date applicable to any Tranche of the Revolving Loan Commitments and (B) payments of interest and fees at different rates applicable to any Tranche of Extended Revolving Loan Commitment (and related oustandings), (2) the final maturity date of any Extended Revolving Loan Commitment shall be no earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date hereunder and (3) all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitments, subject, however, to the reallocation provisions as described in Section 2.15(d) upon the occurrence of a Maturity Date applicable to any Tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments;
 
              (iv)           In the case of any Extension with respect to Term Loans, except as to interest rates, fees, premium, amortization, final maturity, optional and mandatory prepayment provisions (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding proviso, be determined by the Borrower and the relevant Lenders and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans (each, an “Extending Term Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms as the Tranche of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer; provided that (1) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date hereunder, (2) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended thereby, and (3) any Extended Term Loans shall participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer except for repayments required upon a Maturity Date applicable to any Tranche of Term Loans;
 
(v)           if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or principal or committed amount of Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans or Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, of such Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal or committed amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that in no event shall (i) the Revolving Loan Commitments outstanding after giving effect to an Extension exceed the Total Revolving Loan Commitment immediately prior to such Extension, (ii) the Terms Loans after giving effect to an Extension exceed the Total Term Loan Commitment on the Effective Date and (iii) the Revolving Loan Commitments and Term Loans after giving effect to an Extension exceed the Total Commitments on the Effective Date);
 
(vi)           all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing; and
 
(vii)           any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower.
 
(b)          An Extension shall not constitute a voluntary or mandatory repayment or prepayment for purposes of Sections 5.02 and 5.03 and no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided that the Borrower may at its election specify a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of Term Loans or Revolving Loans Commitments to be extended.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Extensions and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.15 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Loan Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 5.02 and 5.03) or any other Credit Document that may otherwise prohibit any such  Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.15.
 
 
 
3

 
 
 
(c)          No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to its Term Loans or Revolving Loan Commitments, as applicable, and (B) with respect to any Extension of the Revolving Loan Commitments, the consent of the Issuing Lender and, if the Swingline Commitment is to be extended, the Swingline Lender, such consent, in any such case, not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.  All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. All Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be “Revolving Obligations” under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and be entitled to the benefits of the “super-priority provisions” contained in Sections 13.06(d) and 13.22. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into customary amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary or appropriate in order to establish Tranches of Extended Terms Loans or Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such Tranches of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Loan Commitments, as applicable, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.15 (each, an “Extension Amendment”).  Each Extension Amendment entered into with the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be binding and conclusive on the Lenders.  The Effectiveness of each Extension Amendment shall be subject to, to the extent reasonably requested by the Extending Term Loan Lenders and/or Extending Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Initial Borrowing Date other than change to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreement and/or such amendments to the Security Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Revolving Loan Commitments are provided with the benefit of the applicable Credit Documents.
 
(d)          Without limiting the generality of the provisions in Section 2.15(c), (i) each Extension Amendment in connection with an Extension of Revolving Loans Commitments shall provide that (x) participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Maturity Date applicable to the Tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments and in Swingline Loans subject to the Extension Offer shall be re-allocated from Lenders who have not accepted to such Extension Offer to Lenders who have accepted such Extension Offer on terms satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender (with corresponding automatic adjustments to the participation interests of Lenders who have accepted such Extension Offer in all Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans), so long as (1) no Specified Default exists at the time of such reallocation and (2) such reallocation would not cause the revolving credit exposure of any Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment to exceeds its Revolving Loan Commitment and (y) if no such reallocation occurs as contemplated by preceding clause (x), the Borrower shall cash collateralize any such Letter of Credit on terms satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and repay in full all Swingline Loans and (ii) the respective Credit Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Collateral Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then Latest Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the then Latest Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Collateral Agent).
 
(e)          In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation, rendering timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.15.”
 
4.   Section 4.01(f) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting said section in its entirety and inserting the following new section in lieu thereof:
 
“(f)        At the time of (I) any voluntary prepayment of principal of Term Loans by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.01 with the Net Cash Proceeds of any incurrence or issuance of any Indebtedness, Disqualified Preferred Stock or Designated Preferred Stock, as applicable, (II) any repayment or prepayment of principal of Term Loans arising as a result of, or in connection with, a Change of Control, (III) any mandatory repayment of principal of Term Loans pursuant to Section 5.02(d) (including as a result of a refinancing in full of the Term Loans), (IV) the effectiveness of any Repricing Transaction or (V) the repayment of the Term Loans as a result of the occurrence of the Maturity Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each Lender with Term Loans that are prepaid, repaid, converted or subject to a pricing reduction, as applicable, in connection with such prepayment, repayment or Repricing Transaction (including each Lender that withholds its consent to such Repricing Transaction and is replaced as a Replaced Lender under Section 2.13), a fee in an amount equal to the Applicable Call Percentage then in effect of (x) in the case of a prepayment or repayment of principal of Term Loans, the aggregate principal amount of such prepayment or repayment, (y) in the case of a Repricing Transaction described in clause (a) of the definition thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans prepaid (or converted) in connection with such Repricing Transaction and (z) in the case of a Repricing Transaction described in clause (b) of the definition thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding on such date that are subject to an effective pricing reduction pursuant to such Repricing Transaction.  Such fees shall be earned, due and payable upon the date of such prepayment, repayment or the effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction, as the case may be.”

6.   Section 9.01(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the text “, all other than a “going concern” exception or explanatory note resulting solely from an upcoming maturity of the Term Loans or Revolving Loans occurring within one year from the most recent balance sheet date to which such opinion relates” at the end of the parenthetical in clause (i) thereof following the word “audit”.
