Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of the Business

Under Armour, Inc. is a developer, marketer and distributor of branded performance apparel, footwear and accessories. These products are sold worldwide and worn by athletes at all levels, from youth to professional on playing fields around the globe, as well as by consumers with active lifestyles.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Under Armour, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements was condensed or omitted for the interim periods presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations were included. All intercompany balances and transactions were eliminated. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 is derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “2010 Form 10-K”), which should be read in conjunction with these consolidated financial statements. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or any other portions thereof.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from large sporting goods retailers. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, and generally collateral is not required. The most significant customers that accounted for a large portion of net revenues and accounts receivable were as follows:

 

     Customer     Customer     Customer  
     A     B     C  

Net revenues

      

Six months ended June 30, 2011

     19.0     8.9     6.6

Six months ended June 30, 2010

     19.8     10.0     6.1

Accounts receivable

      

As of June 30, 2011

     25.2     11.7     8.5

As of December 31, 2010

     23.3     11.0     5.4

As of June 30, 2010

     25.1     12.8     9.1

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

As of June 30, 2011, December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $3.6 million, $4.9 million and $4.8 million, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company charges certain customers shipping and handling fees. These fees are recorded in net revenues. The Company includes the majority of outbound handling costs as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. Outbound handling costs include costs associated with preparing goods to ship to customers and certain costs to operate the Company’s distribution facilities. These costs, included within selling, general and administrative expenses, were $5.4 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $10.2 million and $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company includes outbound freight costs associated with shipping goods to customers as a component of cost of goods sold.

Minority Investment

Beginning in January 2011, the Company has held a minority equity investment in Dome Corporation (“Dome”), its Japanese licensee. As of June 30, 2011, the carrying value of the Company’s investment was $16.1 million, and was included in other long term assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The investment is accounted for under the cost method and is subject to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as it is held by the Company’s European subsidiary.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates, including estimates relating to assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update which eliminates the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. It requires an entity to present total comprehensive income, which includes the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. This pronouncement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company believes the adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

4. Credit Facility and Long Term Debt

Credit Facility

In March 2011, the Company entered into a new $325.0 million credit facility with certain lending institutions and terminated its prior $200.0 million revolving credit facility in order to increase the Company’s available financing and to expand its lending syndicate. The credit facility has a term of four years and provides for a committed revolving credit line of up to $300.0 million, in addition to a $25.0 million term loan facility. The commitment amount under the revolving credit facility may be increased by an additional $50.0 million, subject to certain conditions and approvals as set forth in the credit agreement. The Company incurred and capitalized $1.6 million in deferred financing costs in connection with the credit facility.

In May 2011, the Company borrowed $25.0 million under the term loan facility to finance a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of part of the Company’s corporate headquarters. The acquisition closed in July 2011.

The credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (other than their trademarks and the corporate headquarters that the Company purchased in July 2011) and by a pledge of 65% of the equity interests of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. Up to $5.0 million of the facility may be used to support letters of credit, of which none were outstanding as of June 30, 2011. The Company is required to maintain a certain leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement. The credit agreement also provides the lenders with the ability to reduce the borrowing base, even if the Company is in compliance with all conditions of the credit agreement, upon a material adverse change to the business, properties, assets, financial condition or results of operations of the Company. The credit agreement contains a number of restrictions that limit the Company’s ability, among other things, and subject to certain limited

Table of Contents

exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness, pledge its assets as security, guaranty obligations of third parties, make investments, undergo a merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change its line of business. In addition, the credit agreement includes a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, as defined in the credit agreement, will be considered an event of default under the credit agreement.

Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest based on the daily balance outstanding at LIBOR (with no rate floor) plus an applicable margin (varying from 1.25% to 1.75%) or, in certain cases a base rate (based on a certain lending institution’s Prime Rate or as otherwise specified in the credit agreement, with no rate floor) plus an applicable margin (varying from 0.25% to 0.75%). The credit facility also carries a commitment fee equal to the available but unused borrowings multiplied by an applicable margin (varying from 0.25% to 0.35%). The applicable margins are calculated quarterly and vary based on the Company’s leverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement.

Upon entering into the credit facility in March 2011, the Company terminated its prior $200.0 million revolving credit facility. The prior revolving credit facility was collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, other than its trademarks, and included covenants, conditions and other terms similar to the Company’s new credit facility.

No balances were outstanding under the current credit facility or prior revolving credit facility during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, with the exception of the $25.0 million term loan facility previously mentioned. The interest rate on the $25.0 million term loan was 1.5% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The maturity date of the $25.0 million term loan is March 2015, which is the end of the credit facility term.

Long Term Debt

The Company has long term debt agreements with various lenders to finance the acquisition or lease of qualifying capital investments. Loans under these agreements are collateralized by a first lien on the related assets acquired. As these agreements are not committed facilities, each advance is subject to approval by the lenders. Additionally, these agreements include a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, including the Company’s credit facility, will be considered an event of default under these agreements. These agreements require a prepayment fee if the Company pays outstanding amounts ahead of the scheduled terms. The terms of the credit facility limit the total amount of additional financing under these agreements to $40.0 million, of which $27.1 million was remaining as of June 30, 2011. At June 30, 2011, December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, the outstanding principal balance under these agreements was $11.9 million, $15.9 million and $15.6 million, respectively. Currently, advances under these agreements bear interest rates which are fixed at the time of each advance. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was 3.9% and 5.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 4.0% and 5.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company monitors the financial health and stability of its lenders under the credit and long term debt facilities, however instability in the credit markets could negatively impact lenders and their ability to perform under their facilities.

Interest expense was $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $0.9 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Interest expense includes the amortization of deferred financing costs and interest expense under the credit and long term debt facilities.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

In July 2011, in connection with the acquisition of part of its corporate headquarters, the Company assumed $38.6 million in debt attached to the acquired property. The remaining purchase price was funded through a $25.0 million term loan. Refer to Note 13 for a discussion of the assumed debt and Note 4 for a discussion of the term loan.

There were no additional significant changes to the contractual obligations reported in the 2010 Form 10-K other than those which occur in the normal course of business.

6. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The fair value accounting guidance outlines a valuation framework, creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures, and prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to

develop its own assumptions.

Financial assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value as of June 30, 2011 are set forth in the table below:

 

(In thousands)

   Level 1      Level 2     Level 3  

Derivative foreign currency forward contracts (refer to Note 8)

     —           4,278           —     

Deferred Compensation Plan obligations

     —           (3,664        —     

Fair values of the financial assets and liabilities listed above are determined using inputs that use as their basis readily observable market data that are actively quoted and are validated through external sources, including third-party pricing services and brokers. The foreign currency forward contracts represent gains and losses on derivative contracts, which are the net difference between the currency to be received or paid at each contract’s settlement date and the value of the foreign currency to be sold or purchased at the current forward exchange rate. The fair value of the TOLI held by the Rabbi Trust is based on the cash-surrender value of the life insurance policies, which are invested primarily in mutual funds and a separately managed fixed income fund. These investments are in the same funds and purchased in substantially the same amounts as the selected investments of participants in the Deferred Compensation Plan, which represent the underlying liabilities to participants in this plan. Obligations under the Deferred Compensation Plan are recorded at amounts due to participants, based on the fair value of participants’ selected investments.

7. Stock-Based Compensation

In February 2011, 0.3 million performance-based restricted stock units were awarded to certain executives and key employees under the 2005 Plan. The performance-based restricted stock units have vesting that is tied to the achievement of a certain combined annual operating income target for 2012 and 2013. Upon the achievement of the combined operating income target, 50% of the restricted stock units will vest on February 15, 2014 and the remaining 50% will vest on February 15, 2015. If certain lower levels of combined operating income for 2012 and 2013 are achieved, fewer or no restricted stock units will vest at that time and one year later, and the remaining restricted stock units will be forfeited. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had not begun recording stock-based compensation expense for these performance-based restricted stock units as the Company determined the achievement of the combined operating income targets was not probable. The Company will assess the probability of the achievement of the operating income targets at the end of each reporting period. If it becomes probable that the performance targets related to these performance-based restricted stock units will be achieved, a cumulative adjustment will be recorded as if ratable stock-based compensation expense had been recorded since the grant date. Additional stock based compensation of up to $2.6 million would have been recorded through June 30, 2011 for these performance-based restricted stock units had the achievement of these operating income targets been deemed probable.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had not begun recording stock-based compensation expense for a portion of the performance-based stock options granted during 2010 as the Company determined the achievement of certain combined operating income targets for 2011 and 2012 was not probable. Additional stock-based compensation of up to $2.1 million would have been recorded at June 30, 2011 had the achievement of these operating income targets been deemed probable.

8. Foreign Currency Risk Management and Derivatives

The Company is exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relating to transactions generated by its international subsidiaries in currencies other than their local currencies. These gains and losses are primarily driven by intercompany transactions. From time to time, the Company may elect to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on intercompany transactions and projected inventory purchases for its European and Canadian subsidiaries. In addition, the Company may elect to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on Pound Sterling denominated balance sheet items.

As of June 30, 2011, the notional value of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contract used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on its Canadian subsidiary’s intercompany transactions was $23.0 million with a contract maturity of 1 month. As of June 30, 2011, the notional value of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contracts used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on its European subsidiary’s intercompany transactions was $45.0 million with contract maturities of 1 month. As of June 30, 2011, the notional value of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contracts used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on Pounds Sterling denominated balance sheet items was $4.8 million with contract maturities of 1 month. The foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, changes in their fair value are recorded in other expense, net. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair values of the Company’s foreign

Table of Contents

currency forward contracts were liabilities of $1.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and were included in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2010, the fair values of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts were assets of $0.6 million, and were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 6 for a discussion of the fair value measurements. Included in other expense, net were the following amounts related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and derivative foreign currency forward contracts:

Realized derivative gains (losses)

     (771     4,852        (3,673     8,201   

The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts with major financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings and is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by these financial institutions. This credit risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains in the foreign currency forward contracts. However, the Company monitors the credit quality of these financial institutions and considers the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

9. Provision for Income Taxes

The Company recorded $4.5 million and $2.6 million of income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $12.4 million and $7.8 million of income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective rates for income taxes were 40.2% and 42.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was lower than the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to decreased losses in foreign subsidiaries, federal tax credits forecasted in 2011 which were not forecasted during the second quarter of 2010 and a reduction in the portion of income subject to state taxes. The Company’s annual 2011 effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 40.0%.

Stock options, restricted stock units and warrants representing 1.3 million shares of common stock outstanding for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

12. Segment Data and Related Information

The Company’s operating segments are based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) makes decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance. As such, the CODM receives discrete financial information by geographic region based on the Company’s strategy to become a global brand. These geographic regions include North America; Latin America; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia. The Company’s operating segments are based on these geographic regions. Each geographic segment operates exclusively in one industry: the development, marketing and distribution of branded performance apparel, footwear and accessories. Due to the insignificance of the EMEA, Latin America and Asia operating segments, they have been combined into other foreign countries for disclosure purposes.

The geographic distribution of the Company’s net revenues, operating income and total assets are summarized in the following tables based on the location of its customers and operations. Net revenues represent sales to external customers for each segment. In addition to net revenues, operating income is a primary financial measure used by the Company to evaluate performance of each segment. Intercompany balances were eliminated for separate disclosure and corporate expenses from North America have not been allocated to other foreign countries.

13. Subsequent Event

The Company previously disclosed its intent to acquire approximately 400.0 thousand square feet of office space comprising part of its current corporate headquarters. In July 2011, the Company closed this acquisition for $62.6 million, which included the closing costs of the transaction and the acquisition of buildings, building equipment and improvements, as well as the assumption of third-party leases currently in place. Prior to the acquisition, the Company leased approximately 170.0 thousand square feet of the acquired space. The Company intends to use this space for future expansion of its corporate headquarters. In connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed $38.6 million in debt attached to the acquired property. The assumed debt has an original term of approximately ten years with a scheduled maturity date of March 1, 2013. The debt requires a balloon payment of $37.3 million at maturity. The debt has an interest rate of 6.73% and may not be prepaid. The remaining purchase price was funded through a $25.0 million term loan. Refer to Note 4 for a discussion of the term loan.

Overview

We are a leading developer, marketer and distributor of branded performance apparel, footwear and accessories. The brand’s moisture-wicking fabrications are engineered in many different designs and styles for wear in nearly every climate to provide a performance alternative to traditional products. Our products are sold worldwide and worn by athletes at all levels, from youth to professional, on playing fields around the globe, as well as by consumers with active lifestyles.

 

11


Table of Contents

We are a growth company as evidenced by the increase in net revenues to $1,063.9 million in 2010 from $430.7 million in 2006. We reported net revenues of $604.0 million for the first six months of 2011, which represented a 39.1% increase from the first six months of 2010. We believe that our growth in net revenues has been driven by a growing interest in performance products and the strength of the Under Armour brand in the marketplace. We plan to continue to increase our net revenues over the long term by increased sales of our apparel, footwear and accessories, expansion of our wholesale distribution sales channel, growth in our direct to consumer sales channel and expansion in international markets. Our direct to consumer sales channel includes our factory house and specialty stores, website and catalog. New offerings for 2011 include hats and bags, as well as performance-based cotton products.

Our products are currently offered in over twenty four thousand retail stores worldwide. A large majority of our products are sold in North America; however we believe our products appeal to athletes and consumers with active lifestyles around the globe. Outside of North America, our products are offered primarily in Austria, France, Germany, Ireland and the United Kingdom, as well as in Japan through a licensee, and through distributors located in other foreign countries. We hold a minority investment in our licensee in Japan.

Our operating segments are geographic and include North America; Latin America; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia. Due to the insignificance of the EMEA, Latin America and Asia operating segments, they have been combined into other foreign countries for disclosure purposes.

General

Net revenues comprise both net sales and license revenues. Net sales comprise sales from our primary product categories, which are apparel, footwear and accessories. Our license revenues consist of fees paid to us by our licensees in exchange for the use of our trademarks on core products of socks, eyewear, custom-molded mouth guards, other accessories and team uniforms, as well as the distribution of our products in Japan. Prior to 2011, hats and bags were sold by a licensee. We expect our net revenues to increase by approximately $70 million from 2010 to 2011 as a result of developing our own hats and bags, which includes an increase in accessories revenues and a decrease in our license revenues in 2011. In addition, we expect the related cost of goods sold to increase.

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of product costs, inbound freight and duty costs, outbound freight costs, handling costs to make products floor-ready to customer specifications, royalty payments to endorsers based on a predetermined percentage of sales of selected products and write downs for inventory obsolescence. The fabrics in many of our products are made of petroleum-based synthetic materials. Therefore our product costs, as well as our inbound and outbound freight costs, could be affected by long term pricing trends of oil. In general, as a percentage of net revenues, we expect cost of goods sold associated with our apparel and accessories to be lower than that of our footwear. No cost of goods sold is associated with license revenues.

We include outbound freight costs associated with shipping goods to customers as cost of goods sold; however, we include the majority of outbound handling costs as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. As a result, our gross profit may not be comparable to that of other companies that include outbound handling costs in their cost of goods sold. Outbound handling costs include costs associated with preparing goods to ship to customers and certain costs to operate our distribution facilities. These costs were $5.4 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $10.2 million and $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist of costs related to marketing, selling, product innovation and supply chain and corporate services. Personnel costs are included in these categories based on the employees’ function. Personnel costs include salaries, benefits, incentives and stock-based compensation related to the employee. Our marketing costs are an important driver of our growth. Marketing costs consist primarily of commercials, print ads, league, team, player and event sponsorships, amortization of footwear promotional rights and depreciation expense specific to our in-store fixture program. In addition, marketing costs include costs associated with our Special Make-Up Shop (“SMU Shop”) located at one of our distribution facilities where we manufacture a limited number of products primarily for our league, team, player and event sponsorships. Selling costs consist primarily of costs relating to sales through our wholesale channel, commissions paid to third parties and the majority of our direct to consumer sales channel costs, including the cost of factory house and specialty store leases. Product innovation and supply chain costs include our apparel, footwear and accessories product innovation, sourcing and development costs, distribution facility operating costs, and costs relating to our Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China offices which help support manufacturing, quality assurance and sourcing efforts. Corporate services primarily consist of corporate facility operating costs and company-wide administrative expenses.

Other expense, net consists of unrealized and realized gains and losses on our derivative financial instruments and unrealized and realized gains and losses on adjustments that arise from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relating to transactions generated by our international subsidiaries.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2010

Net revenues increased $86.5 million, or 42.3%, to $291.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $204.8 million for the same period in 2010. Net revenues by product category are summarized below:

Net sales increased $89.2 million, or 45.8%, to $284.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $194.9 million during the same period in 2010 as noted in the table above. The increase in net sales primarily reflects:

 

   

$35.2 million, or 80.7%, increase in direct to consumer sales, which includes 27 additional stores, or a 60% increase, since June 30, 2010;

unit growth driven by increased distribution and new offerings in multiple product categories, most significantly in our training (including the new performance-based cotton product), graphics, base layer, golf and running categories, along with running shoes; and

 

   

$20.6 million, or 333.2%, increase in wholesale accessories sales due to bringing hats and bags sales in-house effective January 1, 2011.

License revenues decreased $2.6 million, or 26.5%, to $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $9.9 million during the same period in 2010. This decrease in license revenues was a result of reduced license revenues due to bringing hats and bags sales in-house and decreased license revenues from Dome, our Japanese licensee, due to the recent earthquake and tsunami. These decreases were partially offset by increased sales by our other licensees due to increased distribution and continued unit volume growth.

Gross profit increased $34.9 million to $134.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $99.9 million for the same period in 2010. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues, or gross margin, decreased 250 basis points to 46.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 48.8% during the same period in 2010. The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily driven by the following:

 

   

decrease in license revenues due to bringing hats and bags sales in-house effective January 1, 2011 and decreases in Japanese license revenues due to the recent earthquake and tsunami, accounting for an approximate 120 basis point decrease;

 

   

less favorable apparel product mix and input costs, accounting for an approximate 120 basis point decrease; and

 

   

increased apparel sales allowances, accounting for an approximate 40 basis point decrease; partially offset by

 

   

increased direct to consumer higher margin sales, accounting for an approximate 45 basis point increase.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $30.4 million to $123.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $93.0 million for the same period in 2010. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 42.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 45.4% for the same period in 2010. These changes were primarily attributable to the following:

 

   

Marketing costs increased $6.7 million to $34.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $27.4 million for the same period in 2010 primarily due to increased sponsorships of professional teams and athletes and increased television and digital campaign costs, including media campaigns for specific customers. As a percentage of net revenues, marketing costs decreased to 11.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 13.4% for the same period in 2010 primarily due to the increase in net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

 

   

Selling costs increased $9.5 million to $30.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $21.2 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was primarily due to higher personnel and other costs incurred for the continued expansion of our direct to consumer distribution channel and higher selling personnel costs. As a percentage of net revenues, selling costs increased slightly to 10.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 10.4% for the same period in 2010 primarily due to higher personnel and other costs incurred for the continued expansion of our factory house stores, partially offset by the increase in net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

 

   

Product innovation and supply chain costs increased $8.9 million to $31.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $22.2 million for the same period in 2010 primarily due to higher distribution facilities operating and personnel costs to support our growth in net revenues and higher personnel costs for the design and sourcing of our expanding apparel, footwear and accessory lines. As a percentage of net revenues, product innovation and supply chain costs decreased slightly to 10.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 10.8% for the same period in 2010 due to the increase in net revenues, partially offset by higher distribution facilities costs as a percentage of net revenues.

 

   

Corporate services costs increased $5.3 million to $27.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $22.2 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was attributable primarily to higher corporate personnel and facility costs and information technology initiatives necessary to support our growth. As a percentage of net revenues, corporate services costs decreased to 9.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 10.8% for the same period in 2010 primarily due to increase in net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

Income from operations increased $4.5 million, or 64.8%, to $11.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $6.9 million for the same period in 2010. Income from operations as a percentage of net revenues increased to 3.9% for

the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.4% for the same period in 2010. This increase was a result of the items discussed above.

Interest expense, net decreased $0.3 million to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $0.6 million for the same period in 2010. This decrease was primarily due to lower average balances on our long term debt facilities.

Other expense, net increased $0.2 million to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $0.2 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was due to higher net losses on the combined foreign currency exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in foreign currencies and our derivative financial instruments as compared to the same period in 2010.

Provision for income taxes increased $1.9 million to $4.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $2.6 million during the same period in 2010. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, our effective tax rate was 41.7% compared to 43.0% for the same period in 2010. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was lower than the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to decreased losses in foreign subsidiaries, federal tax credits forecasted in 2011 which were not forecasted during the first and second quarters of 2010 and a reduction in the portion of income subject to state taxes.

Our annual 2011 effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 40.0%. In addition, we are pursuing certain tax incentives that, if realized in the third or fourth quarter of this year, could reduce the projected 2011 effective tax rate.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2010

Net revenues increased $169.8 million, or 39.1%, to $604.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $434.2 million for the same period in 2010. Net revenues by product category are summarized below:

Operating income in North America increased $12.1 million to $31.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $19.0 million for the same period in 2010 primarily due to the items discussed above in the Consolidated Results of Operations. Operating income in other foreign countries decreased by $0.2 million to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $1.5 million for the same period in 2010 primarily due to increased costs related to our continued investment to support our international expansion in Asia and Latin America, partially offset by increased unit sales growth by our distributors in our Asia and EMEA operating segments and increased product distribution and associated higher margin license revenues by our licensee in Japan.

Seasonality

Historically, we have recognized a significant portion of our income from operations in the last two quarters of the year, driven primarily by increased sales volume of our products during the fall selling season, reflecting our historical strength in fall sports, and the seasonality of our higher priced COLDGEAR ® line. Historically, a larger portion of our income from operations has been in the last two quarters of the year partially due to the shift in the timing of marketing investments to the first two quarters of the year. The majority of our net revenues were generated during the last two quarters in each of 2010 and 2009. The level of our working capital generally reflects the seasonality and growth in our business.

Financial Position, Capital Resources and Liquidity

Our cash requirements have principally been for working capital and capital expenditures. Working capital is primarily funded from cash flows provided by operating activities and cash and cash equivalents on hand. Our working capital requirements generally reflect the seasonality and growth in our business as we recognize the majority of our net revenues in the back half of the year. We fund our working capital, primarily inventory, and capital investments from cash flows provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on hand and borrowings primarily available under our long term debt facilities. Our capital investments have included expanding our in-store fixture and branded concept shop program, improvements and expansion of our distribution and corporate facilities to support our growth, leasehold improvements to our new factory house and specialty stores, and investment and improvements in information technology systems. Our capital expenditures in 2011 will also include the acquisition of part of our corporate headquarters for $62.6 million along with approximately $2.4 million in additional related investments and improvements. In connection with the acquisition, we assumed $38.6 million of debt attached to the acquired property. The remaining purchase price was funded through a $25.0 million term loan.

Our focus remains on inventory management including improving our planning capabilities, managing our inventory purchases, reducing our production lead times and selling excess inventory through our factory house stores and other liquidation channels. However, several factors contributed to inventory growth in excess of net revenue growth in the first half of 2011. We increased our safety stock in core product offerings, primarily our Cold Gear products, and seasonal products to better meet anticipated consumer demand. Core product offerings are products that we generally plan to have available for sale for at least the next twelve months at full price. In addition, beginning in 2011, hats and bags are sold by us rather than by one of our licensees, which also contributed to our expected year over year inventory growth. We expect the inventory growth rate to be more in line with net revenue growth in the third and fourth quarters of 2011.

We believe our cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash from operations and borrowings available to us under our credit and long term debt facilities will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. We may require additional capital to meet our longer term liquidity and future growth needs. Although we believe we have adequate sources of liquidity over the long term, a prolonged economic recession or a slow recovery could adversely affect our business and liquidity. In addition, instability in or tightening of the capital markets could adversely affect our ability to obtain additional capital to grow our business and will affect the cost and terms of such capital.

Operating Activities

Operating activities consist primarily of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Adjustments to net income for non-cash items include depreciation and amortization, unrealized foreign currency exchange rate gains and losses, losses on disposals of property and equipment, stock-based compensation, deferred income taxes and changes in reserves and allowances. In addition, operating cash flows include the effect of changes in operating assets and liabilities, principally inventories, accounts receivable, income taxes payable and receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Cash used in operating activities increased $71.4 million to $83.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $12.3 million during the same period in 2010. The increase in cash used in operating activities was due to increased net cash outflows from operating assets and liabilities of $71.3 million and adjustments to net income for non-cash items which decreased $7.8 million period over period, partially offset by additional net income of $7.7 million. The increase in cash outflows related to changes in operating assets and liabilities period over period was primarily driven by an increase in inventory investments of $63.7 million. In line with our expectations, inventory grew in the second quarter of 2011 at a rate higher than net revenue growth due to increased safety stock in core product offerings and seasonal products to better meet anticipated consumer demand and investments in new products including hats and bags.

Adjustments to net income for non-cash items decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period of the prior year primarily due to unrealized foreign currency exchange rate gains in the 2011 period as compared to unrealized foreign currency exchange rate losses in the prior period.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities, which includes capital expenditures and the purchase of trust owned life insurance policies, increased $19.8 million to $35.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $15.5 million for the same period in 2010. This increase in cash used in investing activities is primarily due to increased investments in our direct to consumer sales channel, corporate and distribution facilities and our in-store fixture program. In addition, we invested in Dome Corporation, our Japanese licensee.

Capital expenditures for the full year 2011 are anticipated to be in the high end of our previously indicated range of $45.0 million to $50.0 million. Our capital expenditures in 2011 will also include the acquisition of part of our corporate headquarters for $62.6 million along with approximately $2.4 million in additional related investments and improvements. In connection with the acquisition, we assumed $38.6 million in debt attached to the acquired property. The remaining purchase price was funded through a $25.0 million term loan.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities increased $35.6 million to $34.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from cash used in financing activities of $0.9 million for the same period in 2010. This increase from the prior year period was primarily due to the term loan borrowed under the credit facility to partially fund the purchase of our corporate headquarters. In addition, we received higher proceeds from the exercise of stock options and additional excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation arrangements in the 2011 period as compared to the 2010 period.

Credit Facility

In March 2011, we entered into a new $325.0 million credit facility with certain lending institutions and terminated our prior $200.0 million revolving credit facility in order to increase our available financing and to expand our lending syndicate.The credit facility has a term of four years and provides for a committed revolving credit line of up to $300.0 million in addition to a $25.0 million term loan facility. The commitment amount under the revolving credit facility may be increased by an additional $50.0 million, subject to certain conditions and approvals as set forth in the credit agreement. We incurred and capitalized $1.6 million in deferred financing costs in connection with the credit facility.

In May 2011, we borrowed $25.0 million under the term loan facility to finance a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of part of our corporate headquarters. The acquisition closed in July 2011.

The credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and is collateralized by substantially all of our assets and certain of our domestic subsidiaries (other than our trademarks and the corporate headquarters that we purchased in July 2011) and by a pledge of 65% of the equity interests of certain of our foreign subsidiaries. Up to $5.0 million of the facility may be used to support letters of credit, of which none were outstanding as of June 30, 2011. We are required to maintain a certain leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement. The credit agreement also provides the lenders with the ability to reduce the borrowing base, even if we are in compliance with all conditions of the credit agreement, upon a material adverse change to our business, properties, assets, financial condition or results of operations. The credit agreement contains a number of restrictions that limit our ability, among other things, and subject to certain limited exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness, pledge our assets as security, guaranty obligations of third parties, make investments, undergo a merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change our line of business. In addition, the credit agreement includes a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, as defined in the credit agreement, will be considered an event of default under the credit agreement.

Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest based on the daily balance outstanding at LIBOR (with no rate floor) plus an applicable margin (varying from 1.25% to 1.75%) or, in certain cases a base rate (based on a certain lending institution’s Prime Rate or as otherwise specified in the credit agreement, with no rate floor) plus an applicable margin (varying from 0.25% to 0.75%). The credit facility also carries a commitment fee equal to the available but unused borrowings multiplied by an applicable margin (varying from 0.25% to 0.35%). The applicable margins are calculated quarterly and vary based on our leverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement.

Upon entering into the credit facility in March 2011, we terminated our prior $200.0 million revolving credit facility. The prior revolving credit facility was collateralized by substantially all of our assets, other than our trademarks, and included covenants, conditions and other terms similar to our new credit facility.

No balances were outstanding under the current credit facility or prior revolving credit facility during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, with the exception of the $25.0 million term loan facility previously mentioned. The interest rate on the $25.0 million term loan was 1.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The maturity date of the $25.0 million term loan is March 2015, which is the end of the credit facility term.

Long Term Debt

We have long term debt agreements with various lenders to finance the acquisition of or lease of qualifying capital investments. Loans under these agreements are collateralized by a first lien on the related assets acquired. As these agreements are not committed facilities, each advance is subject to approval by the lenders. Additionally, these agreements include a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, including our credit facility, will be considered an event of default under these agreements. In addition, these agreements require a prepayment fee if we pay outstanding amounts ahead of the scheduled terms. The terms of our credit facility limit the total amount of additional financing under these agreements to $40.0 million, of which $27.1 million was remaining as of June 30, 2011. At June 30, 2011, December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, the outstanding principal balances under these agreements were $11.9 million, $15.9 million and $15.6 million, respectively. Currently, advances under these agreements bear interest rates which are fixed at the time of each advance. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was 3.9% and 5.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 4.0% and 5.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

We monitor the financial health and stability of our lenders under our credit and long term debt facilities, however instability in the credit markets could negatively impact lenders and their ability to perform under these facilities.

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies

In July 2011, in connection with the acquisition of part of our corporate headquarters, we assumed $38.6 million in debt attached to the acquired property. The remaining purchase price was funded through a $25.0 million term loan. Refer

to Note 13 of the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the assumed debt and Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements for a further discussion on the term loan.

There were no additional significant changes to the contractual obligations reported in our 2010 Form 10-K other than those which occur in the normal course of business.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. To prepare these financial statements, we must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could be significantly different from these estimates. We believe the following discussion addresses the critical accounting policies that are necessary to understand and evaluate our reported financial results.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2010 Form 10-K. The SEC suggests companies provide additional disclosure on those accounting policies considered most critical. The SEC considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to our financial condition and results of operations and requires significant judgments and estimates on the part of management in its application. Our estimates are often based on complex judgments, probabilities and assumptions that management believes to be reasonable, but that are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. It is also possible that other professionals, applying reasonable judgment to the same facts and circumstances, could develop and support a range of alternative estimated amounts. For a complete discussion of our critical accounting policies, see the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of the MD&A in our 2010 Form 10-K. There were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update which eliminates the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. It requires an entity to present total comprehensive income, which includes the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. This pronouncement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We believe the adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Exchange and Foreign Currency Risk Management and Derivatives

We currently generate a small amount of our consolidated net revenues in Canada and Europe. The reporting currency for our consolidated financial statements is the U.S. dollar. To date, net revenues generated outside of the United States have not been significant. However, as our net revenues generated outside of the United States increase, our results of operations could be adversely impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, if we recognize foreign revenues in local foreign currencies (as we currently do in Canada and Europe) and if the U.S. dollar strengthens, it could have a negative impact on our foreign revenues upon translation of those results into the U.S. dollar upon consolidation of our financial statements. In addition, we are exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on transactions generated by our foreign subsidiaries in currencies other than their local currencies. These gains and losses are primarily driven by intercompany transactions. These exposures are included in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of income.

From time to time, we may elect to use foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk from exchange rate fluctuations on intercompany transactions and projected inventory purchases for our European and Canadian subsidiaries. In addition, we may elect to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on Pound Sterling denominated balance sheet items. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

Based on the foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2011, we receive US Dollars in exchange for Canadian Dollars at a weighted average contractual forward foreign currency exchange rate of 0.98 CAD per $1.00, US Dollars in exchange for Euros at a weighted average contractual foreign currency exchange rate of 0.70 EUR per $1.00 and Euros in exchange for Pounds Sterling at a weighted average contractual foreign currency exchange rate of 0.90 GBP per 1.00 EUR. As of June 30, 2011, the notional value of our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts for our Canadian subsidiary was $23.0 million with contract maturities of 1 month, and the notional value of our outstanding foreign currency

forward contracts for our European subsidiary was $45.0 million with contract maturities of 1 month. As of June 30, 2011, the notional value of our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on Pound Sterling denominated balance sheet items was $4.8 million with contract maturities of 1 month. The foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, changes in their fair value are recorded in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair values of our foreign currency forward contracts were liabilities of $1.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and were included in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2010, the fair values of our foreign currency forward contracts were assets of $0.6 million, and were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 6 of the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the fair value measurements. Included in other expense, net were the following amounts related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and derivative foreign currency forward contracts:

Although we have entered into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize some of the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on future cash flows, we cannot be assured that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

WITH RESPECT OF CERTAIN PORTIONS

HEREOF DENOTED WITH “[***]”

THIRD AMENDMENT TO LEASE

THIS THIRD AMENDMENT TO LEASE (this “Third Amendment”) is made as of June 23, 2004 by and between HULL POINT, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“Landlord”) and KP SPORTS, INC., a Maryland corporation, d/b/a Under Armour Performance Apparel (“Tenant”).

RECITALS

R.1 By that Office Lease dated March 29, 2002 by and between Landlord and Tenant, as amended by that First Amendment to Lease dated September 10, 2002 and that Second Amendment to Lease dated March 6, 2003 (collectively, the “Original Lease”), Landlord leased to Tenant and Tenant leased from Landlord certain space containing 31,880 rentable square feet of space on the third (3 rd ) floor of The Ivory Building and 4,661 rentable square feet on the fourth (4 th ) floor of The Ivory Building (the “Original Premises”) located at Tide Point, 1020 Hull Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21230 (the Original Lease together with this Third Amendment are referred to collectively as the “Lease”).

R.2 Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the terms and conditions of the Original Lease to reflect an expansion of the Original Premises of 483 rentable square feet of space comprising the bridge area between The Ivory Building and The Cascade Building as more particularly depicted on Exhibit A (the “Expansion Space”), to extend the term of the Original Lease, and to make certain other amendments as provided herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above Recitals and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is mutually acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

3.4. Renewal . Section 3.3 of the Original Lease is hereby deleted. Landlord and Tenant hereby confirm Tenant’s renewal rights under the Lease as follows:

(a) Expansion Option Not Exercised . If Tenant fails to exercise its option to expand into the remainder of Performax’ s leased space at the Project in accordance with Section

 

2


10 of the Performax Sublease, Tenant shall have the option to renew the Term of the Lease (the “Non-Expansion Renewal Term”) for four (4) periods of one (1) year each (5/1/07-4/30/08, 5/1/08-4/30/09, 5/1/09-4/30/10 and 5/1/10-4/30/11) and one (1) period often months (5/1/11-2/28/12) (each, a “Non-Expansion Renewal Option”).

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, all terms, covenants, and conditions of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect during the Non-Expansion Renewal Term, except that the Rent applicable to the Non-Expansion Renewal Term shall be Market Rent (as defined below) for the first Non-Expansion Renewal Option set forth in the preceding paragraph and shall escalate by [***]% commencing on the first day of each subsequent Non-Expansion Renewal Option.

(b) Expansion Option Exercised . If Tenant exercises its option to expand into the remainder of Performax’s leased space at the Project in accordance with Section 10 of the Performax Sublease, Tenant shall have the option to renew the Term of the Lease (the “Expansion Renewal Term,” the Expansion Renewal Term and the Non-Expansion Renewal Term are each a “Renewal Term”) for one (1) period of one (1) year (5/1/07-4/30/08), one (1) period of two (2) years (5/1/08-4/30/10), and one (1) period of one (1) year and nine (9) months 5/1/10-2/28/12) (each, an “Expansion Renewal Option,” the Expansion Renewal Option and the Non-Expansion Renewal Option are each a “Renewal Option”).

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, all terms, covenants, and conditions of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect during the Expansion Renewal Term, except that the Rent applicable to the Expansion Renewal Term shall be Market Rent (as defined below) for the first Expansion Renewal Option set forth in the preceding paragraph and shall escalate by [***]% commencing on the first day each subsequent Expansion Renewal Option.

(c) Renewal Option Conditions . Tenant shall exercise each Renewal Option by providing written notice to Landlord of its election to exercise such Renewal Option no later than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the applicable term, provided, however, that Tenant’s option to renew shall be subject to the condition that no default shall have occurred and be continuing after applicable notice and cure periods have expired as of the date of Tenant’s exercise of such option or as of the date of commencement of the Renewal Term; and provided further, that if Tenant’s estate hereunder shall terminate prior to the commencement of the Renewal Term, Tenant’s option to renew shall expire upon such termination. Tenant shall have no other right to renew this Lease after the Renewal Term.

In no event shall the Rent for the Renewal Term be less than the Rent in effect at the expiration of the immediately preceding Term of the Lease. If the Tenant fails to give notice exercising the foregoing option by the date required herein, or if at the time Tenant exercises such option or at commencement of the Renewal Term the Tenant is in default of any term of the Lease, or if the Lease is assigned by Tenant or the Premises is sublet in whole or part in violation of Section 14, then Tenant’s rights and options to renew shall be automatically terminated and of no further force or effect.

(d) Market Rent Defined . For purposes of this Section, “Market Rent” shall be the prevailing market rate of rent and all charges for comparable space at the end of the Term. If

Tenant exercises its option to renew hereunder, Tenant and Landlord shall make a good faith effort to agree on the Market Rent on or before a date (the “Outside Negotiation Date”) which is no later than six (6) months prior to the expiration of the Term, and prior to implementing the procedures set forth below if the parties are unable to agree. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Market Rent by the Outside Negotiation Date, then Landlord and Tenant shall determine the Market Rent in accordance with the appraisal procedure set forth herein. Within ten (10) days after the Outside Negotiation Date, the parties shall appoint an appraiser who shall be mutually agreeable to both Landlord and Tenant, shall have at least ten (10) years’ experience as a broker of commercial leasehold estates, and shall be knowledgeable in office rentals in the Baltimore, Maryland market. If the parties are unable to agree on an appraiser within such ten (10) day period, then each party, within five (5) days after the expiration of such ten (10) day period, shall appoint an appraiser (with the same qualifications) and the two (2) appraisers (or the one appraiser if either Landlord or Tenant fails timely to appoint an appraiser) shall together appoint a third appraiser with the same qualifications. The appraiser or appraisers so appointed then shall determine, within sixty (60) days after the appointment of such appraiser or appraisers, the then Market Rent for the Premises. Among the factors to be considered by the appraiser(s) in determining the fair market base rent for the Premises shall be those factors set out below. The figure arrived at by the appraiser (or the average of the figures arrived at by the three appraisers, if applicable) shall be used as the Market Rent for such renewal term. If the three appraiser method is chosen, then if any appraiser’s estimate of fair Market Rent is either (x) less than ninety percent (90%) of the average figure or (y) more than one hundred ten percent (110%) of such average, then the fair market rent will be either (1) the average of the remaining two (2) appraisal figures falling within such a range of percentages, (2) the remaining appraisal that is within such range of percentages or (3) if none of the figures are within such range, the average of the three (3) appraisals. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear the cost of its appraiser and shall share equally the cost of the third appraiser.

In determining the Market Rent, the parties hereto and such appraisers shall be guided by the following principles: the Market Rent shall be determined by reference to office buildings in the Baltimore metropolitan area most comparable to the quality, amenities, stature, reputation, visibility and services, excluding furniture, of the Building. The Market Rent shall take into account the length of the Renewal Term, the fact that there are no new tenant improvements to be constructed by Landlord nor other lease-up costs (except broker commissions, if any) and shall provide for updating the Base Year Operating Costs to the first year of each renewal term, if such factors are considered market concessions at such time. The valuation shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of this Section and, to the extent not inconsistent herewith, in accordance with the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association in Maryland (or any successor thereto). The final determination of such appraisers shall be in writing and shall be binding and conclusive on the parties, each of whom shall receive counterpart copies thereof. In rendering such decision the appraisers shall not add to, subtract from, or otherwise modify the provisions of this Lease. In determining the Market Rent, the appraisers shall consider all the items set forth above for consideration in determining the Market Rent, as well as any other factors that they deem relevant. Instructions to such effect shall be given to the appraisers.

3.5. Right of First Offer . Provided that both on the date of Tenant’s exercise of its option in regard hereto, and on the date upon which such space is to be occupied by Tenant

 

4


hereunder, (i) the Lease is in full force and effect, (ii) Tenant is not then in material default under the Lease, Tenant shall have the right, upon the conditions, and subject to the terms, set forth herein, to lease additional office space which may be available for leasing (as hereinafter defined) throughout the Project (the “Offer Space”). If any such Offer Space is available for leasing, the Landlord shall provide the Tenant with written notice (the “Landlord’s Offer Notice”), which notice shall describe the Offer Space expected to become available for occupancy by Tenant, the time of its availability and all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of such lease of the Offer Space, including the amount of the rent for such Offer Space.

In the event that Tenant desires to lease any such Offer Space, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within fifteen (15) business days following its receipt of the Landlord’s Offer Notice, of its desire to lease such Offer Space (the “Tenant’s Response Notice”). Time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of any Tenant’s Response Notice. Tenant’s failure to timely deliver a Tenant’s Response Notice to Landlord shall be deemed a decision not to exercise, and also to waive, Tenant’s right to exercise such option with respect to such Offer Space but only for the occasion identified in such Landlord’s Offer Notice.

If, pursuant to the Tenant’s Response Notice, Tenant elects to lease the Offer Space, then and in such event, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment to this Lease, within thirty (30) days following the date of the Tenant’s Response Notice for the lease of such Offer Space, which amendment, among other terms, covenants and conditions therein contained, shall provide for the Offer Space to be incorporated into the Premises and the Base Rent and Tenant’s Proportionate Share to be modified to reflect the inclusion of the Offer Space. Any options to renew available to Tenant as to the Premises shall apply also to the Offer Space so incorporated into the Premises.

All Offer Space shall be leased to Tenant on an “AS IS” basis, in the state and condition in which the same shall be upon removal by the preceding occupant, if any, except that Landlord shall remove any items of personal property left by such occupant and shall deliver the Offer Space to Tenant in “broom clean” fashion. Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent by reason of such state and condition. Landlord makes no representations as to the condition of any Offer Space or as to any other thing or fact related thereto, and Landlord shall have no obligation to decorate, repair, alter, improve or otherwise prepare the Offer Space for Tenant’s occupancy.

If Landlord is unable to give possession of any Offer Space to Tenant because of the holding over or retention of possession thereof by any tenant, subtenant or other occupant or for any other reason, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for failure to give possession and the validity of this Lease shall not be impaired under such circumstances, but in no event shall Tenant be obligated to pay rent on the Offer Space until the Landlord delivers possession thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the entry into by Landlord and Tenant of an amendment to the Lease which pertains to the subject portion of the Offer Space.

As used herein, the term “available for leasing” shall mean space which (1) has or is reasonably expected to become vacant, and (2) is or is reasonably expected to be available for leasing to tenants; it being understood and agreed that space “available for leasing” shall not include any space which, is vacant or occupied if such space is subject to a lease which grants

 

5


the tenant thereunder (“Existing Tenant”) any rights of, renewal or extension as to such space (“Existing Tenant Space”), or is as of the date hereof subject to any rights of first offer or first refusal, expansion or other options granted to another tenant in the Project. Landlord agrees that: (i) Existing Tenant Space shall be deemed “available for leasing” if the Existing Tenant having expansion or renewal rights relating thereto fails or loses the right under the applicable lease to act with respect to such Existing Tenant Space; and (ii) to advise the Tenant from time to time upon Tenant’s request of space “available for leasing”; and (iii) it has by a separate writing on or about the date hereof advised the Tenant of any rights of first offer or first refusal and any expansion, renewal and similar options that exist as of the date hereof for the benefit of other tenants (which information Tenant agrees to keep confidential).

3.6. Parking . Landlord agrees to construct, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, a surface parking lot on a lot located on Hull Street and owned by Landlord (the ‘Parking Lot”) for the exclusive use of Tenant and its employees for the parking of motor vehicles. The Parking Lot will allow for up to forty-eight (48) parking spaces in accordance with the parking schematic attached hereto as Exhibit B (the Parking Schematic”). Landlord will provide Tenant with “UA Parking” hang tags to be displayed in each motor vehicle and a sign at the entrance of the Parking Lot specifying that the Parking Lot is for Tenant’s sole and exclusive use. Management of the efficient use and maximum capacity of the Parking Lot in accordance with the Parking Schematic shall be the responsibility of Tenant.

Beginning on the Substantial Completion Date (as defined below) and ending on the Termination Date, Tenant shall lease the entire Parking Lot from Landlord and shall pay rent for the Parking Lot in the amount of $50.00 per parking space per month. The “Substantial Completion Date” shall occur on that date that Landlord completes the striping of the Parking Lot. All monthly payments for the Parking Lot shall be deemed Additional Rent.

Landlord shall be responsible for all costs of operating the Parking Lot, including maintenance costs, electricity/lighting costs, real estate taxes, insurance costs, and snow removal costs.

Tenant shall indemnify, defend (at Tenant’s cost) and save harmless the Landlord, its members and employees, from and against any and all actions, claims or demands, suits at law, in equity, or before administrative tribunals, due to the negligence, intentional wrongful acts, or alleged negligence or intentional wrongful acts of Tenant, its officers, employees, sublessees, agents, contractors, business invitees or visitors (except to the extent caused by any intentional wrongful act or negligence of the Landlord, its members and employees) in connection with the use of the Parking Lot or in connection with any breach or default in performing any of the obligations under the provisions of this Third Amendment.

Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the Parking Lot is a temporary part of the parking facilities at the Project. Upon such time that Landlord makes available another parking area for the tenants at the Project (the “Substitute Parking Area”), Landlord shall have the right to terminate Tenant’s parking rights in the Parking Lot and relocate Tenant’s parking spaces to the Substitute Parking Area, provided Landlord delivers written notice to Tenant at least six (6) months prior to relocation of such parking spaces. At the time of such notice, Landlord shall

 

6


determine the number of parking spaces in use by Tenant at the Parking Lot and shall provide for the same number of parking spaces in the Substitute Parking Area at market rates.

4. Miscellaneous .

4.1. The language of this Third Amendment shall be construed according to its normal and usual meaning and not strictly for or against either Landlord or Tenant.

4.2. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that, in connection with this Third Amendment hereunder, Landlord has used the services of Colliers Pinkard. Any and all commissions due such brokers shall be paid in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in a separate written agreement between the Landlord and Colliers Pinkard. Subject to the foregoing, each party hereto hereby represents and warrants to the other that, in connection with such leasing, the party so representing and warranting has not dealt with any real estate broker, agent or finder, and there is no commission, charge or other compensation due on account thereof.

4.3. If any clause or provision of this Third Amendment is or becomes illegal, invalid, or unenforceable because of present or future laws or any rule or regulation of any governmental body or entity, effective during the Term (as extended hereby), the intention of the parties hereto is that the remaining parts of this Third Amendment shall not be affected thereby.

4.4. The captions appearing within the body of this Third Amendment have been inserted as a matter of convenience and for reference only and in no way define, limit or enlarge the scope or meaning of this Third Amendment or of any provision hereof.

4.5. This Third Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

4.6. Any references in the Original Lease to the “Lease” or the “Agreement” shall be deemed to include the Original Lease as modified hereby. Except as modified hereby, all terms and conditions of the Original Lease shall continue in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this instrument to be executed as of the day and year first above written.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

2. Amendments to Lease . The Lease is hereby amended as follows:

All such expiration dates are hereby superceded and the Term of the Lease shall, unless otherwise provided in this Amendment or in the Lease, be until April 30, 2012. For purposes of establishing the Base Rent, the period from May 1, 2007 until April 30, 2008 shall be Lease Year 1, and each subsequent twelve calendar month period shall be the next succeeding Lease Year.

2.2 Rent .

(a) Through April 30, 2007, Tenant shall be responsible for paying Base Rent in accordance with the Existing Lease.

2.3 Delivery of Expansion Spaces . Landlord shall deliver the Expansion Space to the Tenant on May 1, 2007. As of the delivery date above, the definition of the term “Premises” shall include the Expansion Space, and the rentable square footage of the Premises shall be increased to 69,272. Tenant shall accept the Expansion Space on an “as-is” basis with no further warranties or representations from the Landlord, except that Landlord warrants that, to its knowledge, the Expansion Space is free of hazardous materials.

2.4 Base Year and Base Taxes .

(a) As of the Effective Date of this Amendment, the Base Operating Costs for the Existing Premises, Suite 210 and Suite 200 of the Expansion Space shall mean Operating Costs incurred for the 2007 calendar year. As of the Effective Date of this Amendment, the Base Operating Costs for Suite 300 of the Expansion Space shall mean Operating Costs incurred for the 2000 calendar year. The 4% restriction on annual increases in Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs shall continue to apply to the Premises, and as to Suite 300, shall be calculated from the 2000 calendar year as if Tenant had been subject to such increases in each subsequent year. If less than 95% of the rentable square feet in the Project is occupied by tenants or Landlord is not supplying services to 95% of the rentable square feet of the Project at any time during any calendar year (including the Base Year), then Operating Costs for such calendar year shall be an amount equal to the Operating Costs which would normally be expected to be incurred using reasonable projections and reasonable extrapolations from existing cost data had 95% of the Project’s rentable square feet been occupied and had Landlord been supplying services to 95% of the Project’s rentable square feet throughout such calendar year. Furthermore, if after the Base Year, the Landlord provides additional services or incurs cost items in a category not otherwise covered in Operating Costs as defined herein, the Base Operating Costs shall be increased in a manner as reasonably determined by Landlord to include such additional matter.

(b) As of the Effective Date of this Amendment, Base Taxes for the Existing Premises, Suite 210 and Suite 200 of the the Expansion Space shall mean Taxes incurred for the

 

3


state fiscal tax year beginning July 1, 2007 and ending June 30, 2008. As of the Effective Date of this Amendment, Base Taxes for Suite 300 of the the Expansion Space shall mean Taxes incurred for the state fiscal tax year beginning July 1, 2000 and ending June 30, 2001.

2.5. Renewal .

(a) Tenant shall have the option to renew the Term of this Lease for one (1) period of two (2) years (the “ Renewal Term ”). Tenant shall exercise the option by providing written notice to Landlord of its election to exercise such option no later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Term (“ Initial Notice Period ”), provided, however, that Tenant’s option to renew shall be subject to the condition that no default shall have occurred and be continuing after applicable notice and cure periods have expired as of the date of Tenant’s exercise of such option or as of the date of commencement of the Renewal Term. Tenant shall have no other right to renew this Lease after the Renewal Term. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, all terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect during the Renewal Term, except that the Rent applicable to the Renewal Term shall be as set forth in this Section below. In no event shall the Rent for the Renewal Term be less than the Rent in effect at the expiration of the immediately preceding Term of the Lease. If the Tenant fails to give notice exercising the foregoing option by the date required herein, or if at the time Tenant exercises such option or at commencement of the Renewal Term the Tenant is in default beyond applicable notice and cure periods of any term of this Lease, or if this Lease is assigned by Tenant or the Premises is sublet in whole or part, then Tenant’s rights and options to renew shall be automatically terminated and of no further force or effect.

(b) The Base Rent for the Renewal Term shall be the Market Rent as determined in subsection (c) below.

(c) The “ Market Rent ” shall be the prevailing market rate of rent and all charges for comparable space at the end of the Term as increased in accordance with market rate annual escalations. If Tenant exercises its option to renew hereunder, Tenant and Landlord shall make a good faith effort to agree on the Market Rent on or before a date (the “Outside Negotiation Date” ) which is no later than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Term, and prior to implementing the procedures set forth below if the parties are unable to agree. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Market Rent by the Outside Negotiation Date, then Landlord and Tenant shall determine the Market Rent in accordance with the appraisal procedure set forth herein. Within ten (10) days after the Outside Negotiation Date, the parties shall appoint a broker who shall be mutually agreeable to both Landlord and Tenant, shall have at least ten (10) years’ experience as a broker of commercial leasehold estates, and shall be knowledgeable in office rentals in the Baltimore, Maryland market. If the parties are unable to agree on a broker within such ten (10) day period, then each party, within five (5) days after the expiration of such ten (10) day period, shall appoint a broker (with the same qualifications) and the two (2) brokers (or the one broker if either Landlord or Tenant fails timely to appoint a broker) shall together appoint a third broker with the same qualifications. The broker or brokers so appointed then shall determine, within sixty (60) days after the appointment of such broker or brokers, the then

 

4


Market Rent for the Premises. Among the factors to be considered by the broker(s) in determining the fair market base rent for the Premises shall be those factors set out below. The figure arrived at by the broker (or the average of the figures arrived at by the three brokers, if applicable) shall be used as the Market Rent for such renewal term. If the three broker method is chosen, then if any broker’s estimate of fair Market Rent is either (x) less than ninety percent (90%) of the average figure or (y) more than one hundred ten percent (110%) of such average, then the fair market rent will be either (1) the average of the remaining two (2) appraisal figures falling within such a range of percentages, (2) the remaining appraisal that is within such range of percentages or (3) if none of the figures are within such range, the average of the three (3) appraisals. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear the cost of its broker and shall share equally the cost of the third broker.

(d) In determining the Market Rent, the parties hereto and such brokers shall be guided by the following principles: the Market Rent shall be determined by reference to newly finished built-out office space in office buildings in Baltimore, Maryland or neighborhoods in the Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan area most comparable to the quality, location, amenities, stature, reputation, visibility and services of the Building. The Market Rent shall take into account the fact that there are no new tenant improvements to be constructed by Landlord nor other lease-up costs (except broker commissions, if any) and shall provide for updating the Base Operating Costs to the first year of each renewal term, if such factors are considered market concessions at such time. The valuation shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of this Section and, to the extent not inconsistent herewith, in accordance with the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association in Maryland (or any successor thereto). The final determination of such brokers shall be in writing and shall be binding and conclusive on the parties, each of whom shall receive counterpart copies thereof. In rendering such decision the brokers shall not add to, subtract from, or otherwise modify the provisions of this Lease. In determining the Market Rent, the brokers shall consider all the items set forth above for consideration in determining the Market Rent. Instructions to such effect shall be given to the brokers.

(e) Notwithstanding the above, Tenant will have the right to rescind its renewal option at any time within ten (10) calendar days after a final written determination is made of the Market Rent in accordance with the above procedures.

2.6. Parking . In addition to the rights to parking spaces under the Existing Lease, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use 58 additional on-site parking spaces. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall provide license plate numbers for its employees and otherwise cooperate with Landlord’s management of the Parking Areas, which may include attended parking service. Tenant shall not obligated to pay any Additional Rent for any such parking spaces.

 

5


2.7. Limited Right of Termination .

(a) Tenant shall have a conditional right to terminate this Lease effective [***] (the “ Early Termination Date ”). If Tenant exercises its right hereunder, it shall give the Landlord written notice of its election to terminate (the “ Termination Notice ”) at least [***] months prior to the Early Termination Date (the “ Termination Period ”).

(b) [***]

(c) [***]

(d) If, and only if, Tenant delivers the Termination Notice within the Termination Period, and Tenant pays to Landlord the Termination Fee, if required, and further provided that Tenant is not in default of any term of this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period either on the date of the Termination Notice or on the Early Termination Date, then the Lease will terminate effective on the Early Termination Date.

2.8. Assignment and Subletting . The provisions of Section 14 of the Existing Lease will continue to apply to any assignment or subletting of the Premises, however no consent from Landlord will be required for an assignment or subletting of all or any portion of the Premises so long as Tenant remains obligated on the Lease and the percentage of profit that is payable for Landlord in accordance with Section 14.4 would increase to one hundred percent.

3. Survival and Conflict . The Lease shall remain in full force and effect, fully binding on Landlord and Tenant and unmodified except as expressly provided herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Lease and the terms of this Amendment, the terms of this Amendment shall govern.

2.6.1 Making Revolving Credit Loans . The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying the information provided by the Borrower and the apportionment among the Lenders of the requested Revolving Credit Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 6.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m., on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 2.6.2 [Presumptions by the Administrative Agent].

2.6.2 Presumptions by the Administrative Agent . Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Loan that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.6.1 [Making Revolving Credit Loans] and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

2.6.3 Making Swing Loans .

So long as PNC Bank elects to make Swing Loans, PNC Bank shall, after receipt by it of a Swing Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5.2, fund such Swing Loan to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. Pittsburgh time on the Borrowing Date.

2.6.5 Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans .

PNC Bank may, at its option, exercisable at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if PNC Bank so requests, accrued interest thereon, provided that no Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in excess of its Revolving Credit Commitment. Revolving

PNC Bank shall provide notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile or telex) that such Revolving Credit Loans are to be made under this Section 2.6.5 and of the apportionment among the Lenders, and the Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.5.1 are then satisfied) by the time PNC Bank so requests, which shall not be earlier than 3:00 p.m. Pittsburgh time on the Business Day next after the date the Lenders receive such notice from PNC Bank.

Promptly after receipt of any letter of credit application, the Issuing Lender shall confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit application and if not, such Issuing Lender will provide Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuing Lender has received notice from any Lender, Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one day prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions in Section 6 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] is not satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.9, the Issuing Lender or any of the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates will issue a Letter of Credit or agree to such amendment or extension, provided that each Letter of Credit shall (A) have a maximum maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, and (B) in no event expire later than the Expiration Date and provided further that in no event shall (i) the Letter of Credit Obligations exceed, at any one time, $5,000,000 (the “Letter of Credit Sublimit”) or (ii) the Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments. Each request by the Borrower for the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that it shall be in compliance with the preceding sentence and with Section 6 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will also deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

2.9.2 Letter of Credit Fees . The Borrower shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of

 

- 24 -


Credit Fee Rate, and (ii) to the Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee equal to 0.25% per annum (in each case computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the daily average Letter of Credit Obligations and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date following issuance of each Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall also pay to the Issuing Lender for the Issuing Lender’s sole account the Issuing Lender’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as the Issuing Lender may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, amendment (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit.

2.9.3 Disbursements, Reimbursement . Immediately upon the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.

2.9.3.1 In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Borrower shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the Issuing Lender prior to 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time on each date that an amount is paid by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) by paying to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender an amount equal to the amount so paid by the Issuing Lender. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent) for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, on the Drawing Date, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made by the Lenders under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan] other than any notice requirements. Any notice given by the Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.9.3.1 may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

2.9.3.2 Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.9.3.1 make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender an amount in immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.9.3 [Disbursement; Reimbursement]) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under the Revolving Credit Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender will promptly give notice (as described in Section 2.9.3.1 above) of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this Section 2.9.3.2.

2.9.3.3 With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in whole or in part as

 

- 25 -

Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.9.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement] shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing (each a “Participation Advance”) from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.9.3.

2.9.4 Repayment of Participation Advances .

2.9.4.1 Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a Participation Advance to the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the Issuing Lender under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Issuing Lender will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the Administrative Agent shall retain for the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by the Issuing Lender.

2.9.4.2 If the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of any payment made by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, forthwith return to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time.

2.9.5 Documentation . Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of the Issuing Lender’s application and agreement for letters of credit and the Issuing Lender’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In the event of a conflict between such application or agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

2.9.6 Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests . In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

(xiv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.9.8 Indemnity . The Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Issuing Lender and any of its Affiliates that has issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) which the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (B) the wrongful dishonor by the Issuing Lender or any of Issuing Lender’s Affiliates of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority.

2.9.9 Liability for Acts and Omissions . As between any Loan Party and the Issuing Lender, or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for any of the following, including any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender or the its Affiliates, as applicable, including any act or omission of any governmental authority, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Issuing Lender’s or its Affiliates rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Issuing Lender from liability for the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without

 

- 28 -


limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender and each of its Affiliates: (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Issuing Lender or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit; (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit (unless such dishonor was pursuant to a court order), to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Issuing Lender or its Affiliate; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Issuing Lender or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender.

2.9.10 Issuing Lender Reporting Requirements. Each Issuing Lender shall, on the first business day of each month, provide to Administrative Agent and Borrower a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, showing the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, the account party, the original face amount (if any), and the expiration date of any Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during the preceding month, and any other information relating to such Letter of Credit that the Administrative Agent may request.

3. INTEREST RATES

3.1 Interest Rate Options . The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than six (6) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans; provided further that if an Event of Default or Potential Default exists and is continuing beyond any applicable cure period, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans and the Required Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any indemnity under Section 4.12 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any time the

 

- 29 -


designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate.

3.1.1 Revolving Credit Interest Rate Options; Swing Line Interest Rate . The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans:

(i) Revolving Credit Base Rate Option : A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or

(ii) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Option : A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

Subject to Section 3.3, only the Base Rate Option applicable to Revolving Credit Loans shall apply to the Swing Loans.

3.1.2 Rate Quotations . The Borrower may call the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made.

3.2 Interest Periods . At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such LIBOR Rate Option by delivering a Loan Request. The notice shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a LIBOR Rate Option:

3.2.1 Amount of Borrowing Tranche . Each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be in integral multiples of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000; and

3.2.2 Renewals . In the case of the renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day. For the elimination of any doubt, in the case of the renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, interest shall be deemed to accrue for the last day of the preceding Interest Period only, and shall not be deemed to accrue for the first day of the new Interest Period.

3.3 Interest After Default . To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived:

3.3.1 Letter of Credit Fees, Interest Rate . The Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.9.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] or Section 3.1 [Interest Rate Options], respectively, shall be increased by 2.0% per annum;

3.3.2 Other Obligations . Each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Revolving Credit Base Rate Option plus an additional 2.0% per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is paid in full; and

3.3.3 Acknowledgment . The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 3.3 reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional

 

- 30 -


compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by Borrower upon demand by Administrative Agent.

3.4 LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available .

3.4.1 Unascertainable . If on any date on which a LIBOR Rate would otherwise be determined, the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such LIBOR Rate, or

(ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the LIBOR Rate,

then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

3.4.2 Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available . If at any time any Lender shall have reasonably determined that:

(i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or

(ii) such LIBOR Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or

(iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,

then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

3.4.3 Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights . In the case of any event specified in Section 3.4.1 [Unascertainable] above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under Section 3.4.1 [Unascertainable] and the Borrower has previously notified the Administrative Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under Section 3.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 4.12 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender to which a LIBOR Rate Option

 

- 31 -


applies, on the date specified in such notice either convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 4.6 [Voluntary Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date.

3.5 Selection of Interest Rate Options . If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2 [Interest Periods], the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Borrowing Tranche to the Revolving Credit Base Rate Option commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period.

4. PAYMENTS

4.1 Payments . All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Administrative Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of PNC Bank with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately available funds; provided that in the event payments are received by 11:00 a.m. by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Lenders on the same day received by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay the Lenders the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by the Administrative Agent and not distributed to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement and shall be deemed an “account stated.”

4.2 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders . Each borrowing shall be allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion of or renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, or other fees (except for the Administrative Agent’s Fee) or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect to the Loans, shall (except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Etc.] or 4.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or 4.10 [Increased Costs; Indemnity]) be made in proportion to the applicable Loans outstanding from each Lender and, if no such Loans are then outstanding, in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Lender. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each borrowing or payment or prepayment by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrower with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to PNC Bank according to Section 2.6.5.

4.3 Sharing of Payments by Lenders . If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien, by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon security, or by any other non-pro rata source, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Ratable Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans

 

- 32 -


and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law (including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section 4.3 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Loan Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or Participation Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 4.3 shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

4.4 Presumptions by Administrative Agent . Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

4.5 Interest Payment Dates . Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date. Interest on Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) Months, also on the 90th day of such Interest Period. Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 4.7 [Mandatory Prepayments] shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated Expiration Date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

4.6 Voluntary Prepayments .

4.6.1 Right to Prepay . The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 4.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] below, in Section 4.10 [Increased Costs] and Section 4.12 [Indemnity]). Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans, it shall provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans or no later than 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans, setting forth the following information:

 

- 33 -


(x) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made;

(y) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans; and

(z) the total principal amount of such prepayment, which shall not be less than $100,000 for any Swing Loan or $500,000 for any Revolving Credit Loan.

All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable. The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount except with respect to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. Except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], if the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrower is prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied first to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 4.12 [Indemnity].

4.6.2 Replacement of a Lender . In the event (a) PNC Bank resigns as Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.6 [Resignation of Administrative Agent] or (b) any Lender (i) gives notice under Section 3.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable, Etc.], (ii) requests compensation under Section 4.10 [Increased Costs], or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.11 [Taxes], (iii) is a Non-Complying Lender or otherwise, (iv) becomes subject to the control of an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision), or (v) is a Non-Consenting Lender referred to in Section 10.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers] then in any such event the Borrower may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.8[Successors and Assigns]), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.8 [Successors and Assigns];

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and Participation Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 4.12 [Indemnity]) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.10.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.11 [Taxes], such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law.

Except in the case of an assignment required by Section 9.6 [Resignation of Administrative Agent], a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

4.7 Mandatory Prepayments . Whenever the outstanding principal balance of Revolving Credit Loans by the Lenders plus the aggregate undrawn face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit

 

- 34 -


issued pursuant to Section 2.9 plus the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Loans exceed the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall make, within one (1) Business Day after the Borrower learns of such excess and whether or not the Administrative Agent has given notice to such effect, a mandatory prepayment of principal equal to the excess of the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans plus the aggregate undrawn face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit plus the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Loans over the Borrowing Base, together with accrued interest on such principal amounts.

4.8 Receipt and Application of Payment . If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing beyond any applicable grace or cure period, and upon three (3) Business Days prior written notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall notify all Account Receivable Debtors to make all payments due from them to the Borrower directly to a lockbox for collection pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement (the “Cash Collateral Account”). In the event the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, Administrative Agents or those Person acting for or in concert with the Borrower) shall receive any cash, checks, notes, drafts or other similar items of payment relating to or constituting the Collateral (or proceeds thereof), no later than the first Business Day following receipt thereof, the Borrower shall (i) deposit or cause the same to be deposited, in kind, in the Cash Collateral Account established by the Borrower with the Administrative Agent or such other depository as may be designated in writing by the Administrative Agent (the “Depository”), from which account the Administrative Agent alone shall have sole power of withdrawal, and with respect to which the Depository shall waive any rights of set off, and (ii) forward to the Administrative Agent on a daily basis, a collection report in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and, at the Administrative Agent’s request, copies of all such items and deposit slips related thereto. All cash, notes, checks, drafts or similar items of payment by or for the account of the Borrower shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Lenders immediately upon the earlier of the receipt of such items by the Administrative Agent or the Depository or the receipt of such items by the Borrower; provided , however , that for the purpose of computing interest hereunder such items shall be deemed to have been collected and shall be applied by the Administrative Agent on account of the Loans one (1) Business Day after receipt by the Administrative Agent (subject to correction for any items subsequently dishonored for any reason whatsoever). All funds in the Cash Collateral Account, including all payments made by or on behalf of and all credits due the Borrower, may be applied and reapplied in whole or in part to any of the Loans to the extent and in the manner the Administrative Agent deems advisable.

4.9 Collections; Administrative Agent’s Right to Notify Account Receivable Debtors . The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, now and at any time or times hereafter, to (i) after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default and beyond any applicable grace or cure period, notify any or all Account Receivable Debtors that the Accounts Receivable have been assigned to the Lenders and that the Lenders have a security interest therein, and (ii) direct such Account Receivable Debtors to make all payments due from them to the Borrower upon the Accounts Receivable directly to the Administrative Agent or to a lockbox designated by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly furnish the Borrower with a copy of any such notice sent. Any such notice, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, may be sent on the Borrower’s stationery, in which event the Borrower shall co-sign such notice with the Administrative Agent. To the extent that any Law or custom or any contract or agreement with any Account Receivable Debtor requires notice to or the approval of the Account Receivable Debtor in order to perfect such assignment of a security interest in Accounts Receivable, the Borrower agrees to give such notice or use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such approval.

4.10 Increased Costs .

4.10.1 Increased Costs Generally . If any Change in Law shall:

 

- 35 -


(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate) or the Issuing Lender;

(ii) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 4.11 [Taxes] and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) in each case, in an amount deemed to be material by such Lender or Issuing Lender, then, upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

4.10.2 Capital Requirements . If any Lender or the Issuing Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), in each case, in an amount deemed to be material by such Lender or Issuing Lender, then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

4.10.3 Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans . A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender reasonably setting forth in sufficient detail for calculation the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 4.10.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or 4.10.2 [Capital Requirements] and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, each Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law.

Notwithstanding the submission of a such documentation claiming a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its reasonable judgment

 

- 37 -


it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under § 1.1441-7(b) of the United States Income Tax Regulations. Further, the Administrative Agent is indemnified under § 1.1461-1(e) of the United States Income Tax Regulations against any claims and demands of any Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under § 1441 of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of originals or copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(iv) any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

4.12 Indemnity . In addition to the compensation or payments required by Section 4.10 [Increased Costs] or Section 4.11 [Taxes], the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against all liabilities, losses or expenses (including loss of margin, any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties and any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired by a Lender to fund or maintain Loans subject to a LIBOR Rate Option) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of any:

(i) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due),

(ii) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Requests under Section 2.5 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] or Section 3.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.6 [Voluntary Prepayments], or

(iii) default by the Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrower

 

- 38 -


to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Commitment Fee or any other amount due hereunder.

If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

4.13 Settlement Date Procedures . In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the Lenders and the Agent, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Loans and PNC Bank may make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.1.2 hereof during the period between Settlement Dates. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on each Settlement Date, the Agent shall notify each Lender of its Ratable Share of the total of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swing Loans (each a “Required Share”). Prior to 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, on such Settlement Date, each Lender shall pay to the Agent the amount equal to the difference between its Required Share and its Revolving Credit Loans, and the Agent shall pay to each Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans. The Administrative Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Revolving Credit Loans and on dates of repayment pursuant to Section 4.7 [Mandatory Prepayments] and may at its option effect settlement on any other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of administrative convenience, and nothing contained in this Section 4.13 shall relieve the Lender of their obligations to fund Revolving Credit Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date pursuant to Section 2.1.2. The Agent may at any time at its option for any reason whatsoever require each Lender to pay immediately to the Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and each Lender may at any time require the Agent to pay immediately to such Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the borrower to the Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans.

(iii) the goods the sale of which gave rise to the Account Receivable were shipped or delivered or provided to the Account Receivable Debtor on an absolute sale basis and not on a bill and hold sale basis, a consignment sale basis, a guaranteed sale basis, a sale or return basis, or on the basis of any other similar understanding, and no part of such goods has been returned or rejected;

(iv) the Account Receivable is not evidenced by chattel paper or an instrument of any kind;

(v) the Account Receivable Debtor with respect to the Account Receivable (a) is Solvent or has taken no action to give public notice that it is not Solvent, and (b) is not the subject of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings of any kind or of any other proceeding or action, threatened in writing or pending, which could reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on its business;

(vi) (a) the Account Receivable Debtor is not located outside of the United States of America or (b) if the Account Receivable Debtor is located outside of the

(viii) the Account Receivable is a valid, binding and legally enforceable obligation of the Account Receivable Debtor with respect thereto and is not subject to any dispute, condition, contingency, offset, recoupment, reduction, claim for credit, allowance, adjustment, counterclaim or defense on the part of such Account Receivable Debtor, and no facts exist which may provide a basis for any of the foregoing in the present or future;

(ix) the Account Receivable is subject to the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ Prior Security Interest, subject to Permitted Liens, if any, and is not subject to any other Lien, claim, encumbrance or security interest whatsoever;

(x) the Account Receivable is evidenced by an invoice or other documentation and arises from a contract which is in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(xi) the Loan Parties have observed and complied in all material respects with all laws of the state in which the Account Receivable Debtor or the Account Receivable is located which, if not materially observed and complied with, would deny to the Loan Parties access to the courts of such state;

(xii) the Account Receivable is not subject to any provision prohibiting its assignment or requiring notice of or consent to such assignment;

(xiii) the goods giving rise to the Account Receivable were not, at the time of sale thereof, subject to any Lien or encumbrance except the Administrative Agent and the Lenders’ Prior Security Interest or any Permitted Lien;

IV. Opinions

Based on our review of the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, and limitations set forth herein, it is our opinion, as of the date of this letter, that:

1. The Borrower is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland.

2. The Guarantors listed in Paragraphs (1) and (4) through (21) of Schedule II are limited liability companies validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, and the Guarantors listed in Paragraphs (2) and (3) of Schedule II are corporations validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland.

3. Under Armour Retail of Virginia, LLC (“ UA Virginia ”) is a limited liability company validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

4. Based solely on the Certificate of Good Standing issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Florida dated January 17, 2009, Under Armour Retail of Florida, LLC (“ UA Florida ”) is an active limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Florida.

5. The Borrower and each of the Guarantors (other than UA Florida) has the corporate power or limited liability company power, as applicable, to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

6. All necessary corporate or limited liability company action, as applicable, has been taken to authorize the execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Borrower and each of the Guarantors (other than UA Florida) with respect to the respective Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

7. The Transaction Documents constitute the valid and binding obligations of the Borrower and each of the Guarantors to which such entity is a party, enforceable against the Borrower and each of the Guarantors in accordance with their respective terms.

8. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, the performance of the Borrower’s and each of the Guarantors’ obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the borrowing of the Loan, will not:

 

  (i) conflict with the charter, bylaws, articles of organization, certificates of formation or operating agreements, as applicable, of the Borrower or the Guarantors;

 

  (ii) to our actual knowledge based on those matters with respect to which we have been engaged by the Borrower and the Guarantors within the prior twelve months and without any independent investigation or verification and relying upon the UA Officer’s Certificate (as defined in Schedule III), constitute a material breach or default under any contract, mortgage, agreement or other document or instrument to which the Borrower is a party; and


PNC Bank, National Association

January 28, 2009

Page 6

 

  (iii) to our knowledge (and without having ordered or reviewed any judgment, lien or other searches, either in the public domain or of the Borrower or its properties) and relying on the UA Officer’s Certificate, conflict with or result in a material breach or default under any judgment, order, writ or decree of any court or governmental authority binding on the Borrower or to which the Borrower is subject and which is of specific application to the Borrower.

9. To our knowledge, no consent, approval, authorization, or other action by, or filing with, any governmental authority is required for the execution and delivery by the Borrower and each of the Guarantors (other than UA Florida) of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or, if required, the requisite consent, approval, or authorization has been obtained, the requisite filing has been accomplished, or the requisite action has been taken.

10. The Transaction Documents, exclusive of the Pledge Agreement, are effective to create in favor of the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, as security for the obligations under such Transaction Documents, a security interest (the “ Article 9 Security Interest ”) in the Collateral described in such Transaction Documents in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Pennsylvania UCC (the “ Article 9 Collateral ”).

11. Upon the filing of the Collateral Financing Statements (as defined in Schedule III) with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation (“ SDAT ”) for the Borrower and the Guarantors listed in Paragraphs (1) through (21) of Schedule II and with the Virginia State Corporation Commission for UA Virginia, the Article 9 Security Interest in that portion of the Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the UCC (other than any security interest in any Article 9 Collateral of UA Florida) will be perfected.

12. We have reviewed Chapter 679 of the 2008 Florida Statutes as published by the Florida Legislature (“ Article 9 of the Florida UCC ”) and have relied solely upon this review in forming the opinion set forth in this paragraph. Upon the filing of the Collateral Financing Statements (as defined in Schedule III) with the Florida Secured Transaction Registry for UA Florida, the Article 9 Security Interest in that portion of the Article 9 Collateral of UA Florida in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under Article 9 of the Florida UCC will be perfected.

13. The Pledge Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, as security for the obligations under the Pledge Agreement, a security interest in the Pledged Collateral in which a security interest may be created under the Maryland UCC.

14. Upon the delivery in the State of Maryland to the Administrative Agent of the Pledged Stock and the related stock powers pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and assuming that the Administrative Agent had no notice of an adverse claim (within the meaning of Section 8-105 of the Maryland UCC) with respect to the Pledged Stock at the time the Pledged Stock is delivered to the Administrative Agent, the security interest in the Pledged Stock created in favor of the Administrative Agent under the Pledge Agreement will constitute a perfected security


PNC Bank, National Association

January 28, 2009

Page 7

 

interest in the Pledged Stock, free of any “adverse claim” (as defined in Section 8-102 of the Maryland UCC).

(xi) We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provisions permitting modifications of the Transaction Documents only if in writing.

(xii) We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provision stating that the provisions of the Transaction Documents are severable.

(xvii) Certain rights of debtors and of other obligors and certain duties of secured parties referred to in Sections 1-102(3), 9-602 and Section 9-624 of the UCC may not be waived, released, varied or disclaimed by agreement except, in certain instances, following a default.

(xviii) We express no opinion as to any consent, approval, authorization, or other action or filing necessary or required for the ongoing operation of the Borrower’s or Guarantors’ businesses.

(xix) We express no opinion as to any consent, approval, authorization, or other action by, or filing with any county, city, or other municipality or any local government agency.

(xx) Our opinion in Paragraph IV.9 regarding consents and approvals is based upon our consideration of only those consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, registrations, declarations or filings required under those statutes, rules or regulations of the State of Maryland, Commonwealth of Virginia or Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, if any, that, in our experience, are reasonably applicable to transactions of the type contemplated under the Transaction Documents.

(xxi) We express no opinion with respect to (a) the title to or the rights or interests of the Borrower and Guarantors in the Collateral, (b) the adequacy of the description of the Collateral, or (c) except as explicitly set forth herein, the creation, attachment, perfection or priority of any liens thereon and/or security interests therein.

(xxiv) We express no opinion as to the perfection of or priority of security interests in property of the Borrower or Guarantors acquired after the date of this letter. In the case of property as to which the security interest attaches after the date hereof, Section 552 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code limits the extent to which property acquired by a debtor after the commencement of a case under the Federal Bankruptcy Code may be subject to a security interest arising from a security agreement entered into by the debtor before the commencement of such case.

(xxv) We express no opinion with respect to any security interest created under the Transaction Documents that purports to secure any present or future obligations or liabilities of the Borrower or Guarantors to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent (other than the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower and Guarantors to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent created or arising under the Transaction Documents) that are determined, in the case of obligations or liabilities of the Borrower and Guarantors to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent created in the future, not to constitute “future advances” within the meaning of Section 9-204(c) of the UCC, are determined not to have been within the contemplation of the Borrower, Guarantors, Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent at the time the Transaction Documents were executed, or are determined not to be of the same character or class as the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower and Guarantors to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent created or arising under the Transaction Documents.

(xxvi) We express no opinion as to personal property affixed to real property in such a manner so as to become a fixture.

(xxvii) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of the security interests under the Transaction Documents as against the competing interests of those third parties who would, in accordance with the provisions of the UCC or other applicable law, take free of any such security interest notwithstanding perfection thereof.

(xxviii) We express no opinion as to the perfection of the security interest of the Administrative Agent in any portion of the Pledged Stock, the continuous possession of which is not maintained by the Administrative Agent in the State of Maryland. In addition, we call to your attention that perfection (and the effect of perfection and non-perfection) of the security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Pledged Stock may be governed by laws other than those of the Maryland UCC to the extent the Pledged Stock become located in a jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland.

(xxix) We call to your attention that in the case of the issuance of additional shares or other distributions in respect of the Pledged Stock, the security interests of the Administrative Agent therein will be perfected only if possession thereof is obtained or other action appropriate to the nature of the distribution is taken, in either case, in accordance with the provisions of the Maryland UCC and other applicable law.

(xxx) We express no opinion regarding any security or other interests of the Borrower and Guarantors in property of another that secures the other’s obligations to the Borrower.

(xxxi) We express no opinion as to whether (a) the Borrower has the right to transfer rights in the Article 9 Collateral, the Pledged Stock, or the Pledged Membership Interests to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent, or (b) provisions in the Transaction Documents granting an absolute assignment of rights or interests will be construed as effecting an absolute assignment rattier than a collateral assignment or security interest.

(xxxii) The assignment of any contract, lease, license, or permit may require the approval of the issuer thereof or the other parties thereto.

(xxxiii) Except to the limited extent an Article 9 Security Interest, the security interest in the Pledged Stock, or the security interest in the Pledged Membership Interests may be created therein, we express no opinion with respect to any security interest in any accounts, chattel paper, documents, instruments or general intangibles with respect to which the account debtor or obligor is the United States, any state, county, city, municipality or other governmental body, or any department, agency or instrumentality thereof.

(xxxiv) Under the provisions of Section 9-108(c) of the UCC, to the extent any provision of the Transaction Documents purports to create a security interest in property described as “all assets,” “all personal property” or otherwise in a supergeneric manner, such provision does not reasonably identify the Collateral, the Pledged Stock, and/or the Pledged Membership Interests and is not sufficient to create a security interest in any Collateral, the Pledged Stock, and/or the Pledged Membership Interests so described.

(xxxv) We point out that:

(a) With regard to the UCC, (A) Section 9-301(1) of the UCC provides that, generally, the local law of the jurisdiction where a debtor is located governs perfection, the effect of perfection and non-perfection, and priority of a security interest in Collateral (as defined in the UCC) and (B) Section 9-307(e) of the UCC provides that a registered organization (as that term is defined in Section 9-102(71) of the UCC) that is organized under the laws of a state is located in that state, but

(b) the UCC elsewhere provides that (A) with respect to possessory security interests, the local law of jurisdiction where Collateral (as defined in the UCC) is located governs, among other things, perfection, (B) the local law of the depository bank’s jurisdiction governs perfection in deposit accounts, (C) the local law (if a state) where a security certificate is located governs, among other things, perfection other than perfection by the filing of a financing statement, (D) the local law (if a state) of an issuer’s jurisdiction governs, among other things, perfection in uncertificated securities other than perfection by the filing of a financing statement and the local law (if a state) of securities intermediary’s jurisdiction governs perfection in a securities entitlement or securities account other than perfection by the filing of a financing statement, (E) except for security interests in letter-of-credit rights perfected only by Section 9-308(d) of the UCC, the local law (if a state) of a issuer’s or nominee’s jurisdiction governs perfection in letter-of-credit rights, (F) with respect to goods that become fixtures, perfection and other matters are covered by the law of jurisdiction where the real estate is located, and (G) with respect to goods that are covered by a certificate of title, perfection and other matters are governed by the law of the jurisdiction issuing such certificate of title.

(c) Lenders’ and Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral will terminate upon a disposition authorized by Administrative Agent as to such disposed property.

(xxxvi) Our opinions regarding the creation and perfection of security interests are subject to the effect of (a) the limitations on the existence and perfection of security interests in proceeds resulting from the operation of Sections 9-203(f) and 9-315 of the UCC; (b) the limitations in

favor of buyers imposed by Sections 9-320 and 9-330 of the UCC and in favor of licensees imposed by Section 9-321 of the UCC; (c) the limitations with respect to documents, instruments and securities imposed by Section 9-331 and Section 8-303 of the UCC; (d) laws, other than the UCC, that determine whether the Borrower’s rights in Collateral (as defined in the UCC) may be voluntarily or involuntarily transferred; (e) other rights of persons in possession of goods, instruments, money, tangible chattel paper or investment property; and (f) other rights of persons in control of investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights and electronic chattel paper.

(xxxvii) We also note the following: (a) rights to money or funds contained in a deposit account are subject to the rights of transferees under Section 9-327 of the UCC; (b) security interests in goods are subject to rights of holders of possessory liens under Section 9-333 of the UCC; (c) Security interests in deposit accounts are subject to the rights of the depositary bank under Section 9-340 of the UCC; (d) security interests in Collateral (as defined in the UCC) consisting of proceeds will be limited as provided in Sections 9-315 and 9-322(c) of the UCC; (e) security interests in goods that are installed in, or attached or affixed to any other goods may be subject to the provisions of Section 9-335 of the UCC, and may be subject to the provisions of Section 9-336 of the UCC to the extent that such goods form part of a larger product or mass.

(xxxviii) We express no opinion as to the Lenders’ and/or Administrative Agent’s rights in the Collateral, the Pledged Stock, and/or the Pledged Membership Interests to the extent that the Lender has knowledge that its security interest in the Collateral, the Pledged Stock, or the Pledged Membership Interests violates the rights of another secured party.

(xxxix) With respect to our opinion as to the perfection of the security interest, we offer no opinion as to the continued perfection of that security interest. Without implying any limitation on the foregoing, we point out that the continued perfection of any security interest in any of the Collateral, Pledged Stock, or Pledged Membership Interests (a) may be affected by the removal of such Collateral or Pledged Stock to another jurisdiction or upon the change of the name or the state of organization of any debtor, or (b) that is perfected by the filing of a financing statement, may be affected by the failure to file a timely continuation statement.

(xl) We draw to your attention the provisions of Section 911(b) of the Pennsylvania Crimes Code (the “ Crimes Code ”), 18 Pa. C.S. § 911(b), in connection with the fact that the Loans bear floating rates of interest. Section 911(b) of the Crimes Codes makes it unlawful to use or invest income derived from a pattern of “racketeering activity” in the establishment or operation of any enterprise. “Racketeering activity,” as defined in the Crimes Code, includes the collection of money or other property in full or partial satisfaction of a debt which arose as the result of the lending of money or other property at a rate of interest exceeding 25% per annum where not otherwise authorized by law.

(xli) We express no opinion on any provision of the Transaction Documents which purports to authorize Administrative Agent, any Lender and each of their Affiliates to set off and apply any deposits at any time held, and any other indebtedness at any time owing, by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the account of Borrower or Guarantors or which purports to provide that any purchaser of a participation from any Lender may exercise setoff or similar rights with respect to such participation.

CONTINUING AGREEMENT OF GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP

THIS CONTINUING AGREEMENT OF GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP (this “Guaranty”), dated as of this 28th day of January, 2009, is jointly and severally given by each of the undersigned and each of the other Persons which become Guarantors hereunder from time to time (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”) in favor of PNC Bank, National Association, in its capacity as administrative agent (the “Agent”) for the Lenders (as hereinafter defined) in connection with that Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among Under Armour, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors now or hereafter party thereto, the Agent, the Lenders now or hereafter party thereto (the “Lenders”), SunTrust Bank, as Syndication Agent, and Compass Bank, as Documentation Agent (as amended, restated, modified, or supplemented from time to time hereafter, the “Credit Agreement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them by the Credit Agreement and the rules of construction set forth in Section 1.2 [Construction] of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Guaranty.

1. Guarantied Obligations . To induce the Agent and the Lenders to make loans and grant other financial accommodations to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally unconditionally, and irrevocably, guaranties to the Agent, each Lender and any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge (an “IRH Provider”); and becomes surety, as though it was a primary obligor for, the full and punctual payment and performance when due (whether on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise and including any amounts which would become due but for the operation of an automatic stay under the federal bankruptcy code of the United States or any similar laws of any country or jurisdiction) of all Obligations of the Borrower or any other Guarantor to the Agent or any of the Lenders or any Affiliate of any Lender under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether for principal, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses, or otherwise, and all refinancings or refundings thereof, whether such obligations, liabilities, or indebtedness are direct or indirect, secured or unsecured, joint or several, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, whether for payment or performance, now existing or hereafter arising (and including obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising or accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any Guarantor or which would have arisen or accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding, even if the claim for such obligation, liability, or indebtedness is not enforceable or allowable in such proceeding, and including all Obligations, regardless of whether any such extensions of credit are in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents or are made in circumstances in which any condition to extension of credit is not satisfied) (all of the foregoing obligations, liabilities and indebtedness are referred to herein collectively as the “Guarantied Obligations” and each as a “Guarantied Obligation”). Without limitation of the foregoing, any of the Guarantied Obligations shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty if the Agent or any of the Lenders (or any one or more assignees or transferees thereof) from time to time assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of their respective rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other Person in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees as follows.


2. Guaranty . Each Guarantor hereby promises to pay and perform all such Guarantied Obligations immediately upon demand of the Agent and the Lenders or any one or more of them. All payments made hereunder shall be made by each Guarantor in immediately available funds in United States Dollars and shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, withholding, or other deduction of any nature.

3. Obligations Absolute . The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by the failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by any Lender, the Agent, or any Borrower or any other obligor on any of the Guarantied Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. Each of the Guarantors agrees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby consents to, at any time and from time to time, and the joint and several obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following:

(a) any lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Guarantied Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or any rights of the Agent or the Lenders or any other Person with respect thereto;

(b) any increase, decrease, or change in the amount, nature, type or purpose of any of, or any release, surrender, exchange, compromise or settlement of any of the Guarantied Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Loan Documents as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Guarantied Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations;

(c) any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Guarantor; or any application of collections (including but not limited to collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Guarantied Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, in preference to Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, or if any

 

- 2 -


collections are applied to Guarantied Obligations, any application to particular Guarantied Obligations;

(d) any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, waiver, supplement, termination, subordination, compromise, release, surrender, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights, or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action by the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or, any other action or inaction by any of the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations. As used in this Guaranty, “direct or indirect security” for the Guarantied Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person;

(e) any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, the Borrower or any other Person; any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any other Person; or any action taken or election made by the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code), the Borrower, or any other Person in connection with any such proceeding;

(f) any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other person with respect to any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; or any discharge by operation of law or release of the Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; or

(g) any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of, any Guarantor, a guarantor or a surety, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations in full.

Each Guarantor acknowledges, consents, and agrees that new Guarantors may join in this Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.2.8 of the Credit Agreement and each Guarantor affirms that its obligations shall continue hereunder undiminished.

4. Waivers, etc . Each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense to, or limitation on, its obligations under this Guaranty arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in Section 3 hereof. Without limitation and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives each of the following:

 

- 3 -


(a) all notices, disclosures and demand of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time to preserve intact any rights against any Guarantor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in Section 3 hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Guarantied Obligation; any notice of any default or any failure on the part of the Borrower or any other Person to comply with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; and any notice of any information pertaining to the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower or any other Person;

(b) any right to any marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against the Borrower or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against the Borrower or any other Person of any other right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, and any requirement that any Guarantor receive notice of any such acceptance;

(c) any defense or other right arising by reason of any law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including but not limited to anti-deficiency laws, “one action” laws or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Guarantied Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, to seek a deficiency against the Borrower or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Guarantied Obligations; and

(d) any and all defenses it may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like.

5. Reinstatement . This Guaranty is a continuing obligation of the Guarantors and shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that no Guarantied Obligations may be outstanding from time to time and notwithstanding any other event or circumstance. Upon termination of all Commitments, the expiration of all Letters of Credit and indefeasible payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations, this Guaranty shall terminate; provided , however , that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, any time any payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations is rescinded, recouped, avoided, or must otherwise be returned or released by any Lender or Agent upon or during the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of, or any similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower or for any other reason whatsoever, all as though such payment had not been made and was due and owing.

 

- 4 -


6. Subrogation . Each Guarantor waives and agrees it will not exercise any rights against Borrower or any other Guarantor arising in connection with, or any Collateral securing, the Guarantied Obligations (including rights of subrogation, contribution, and the like) until the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, and all Commitments have been terminated and all Letters of Credit have expired. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Guarantor by virtue of any right of subrogation, contribution, or the like, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and shall be held in trust for the benefit of, the Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

7. No Stay . Without limitation of any other provision of this Guaranty, if any declaration of default or acceleration or other exercise or condition to exercise of rights or remedies under or with respect to any Guarantied Obligation shall at any time be stayed, enjoined, or prevented for any reason (including but not limited to stay or injunction resulting from the pendency against the Borrower or any other Person of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding), the Guarantors agree that, for the purposes of this Guaranty and their obligations hereunder, the Guarantied Obligations shall be deemed to have been declared in default or accelerated, and such other exercise or conditions to exercise shall be deemed to have been taken or met.

If any Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any of the Loan Documents, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Subsection (a) such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Guarantor shall make such deductions and (iii) such Guarantor shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant tax authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Stamp Taxes . In addition, each Guarantor agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any of the Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

paid by any Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date a Lender makes written demand therefor.

(d) Certificate . Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of any Taxes by any Guarantor, such Guarantor shall furnish to each Lender, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. If no Taxes are payable in respect of any payment by such Guarantor, such Guarantor shall, if so requested by a Lender, provide a certificate of an officer of such Guarantor to that effect.

9. [Reserved] .

The Agent and the Lenders may rely on any notice (whether or not made in a manner contemplated by this Guaranty) purportedly made by or on behalf of a Guarantor, and the Agent and the Lenders shall have no duty to verify the identity or authority of the Person giving such notice.

11. Counterparts; Telecopy Signatures .

Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that a telecopy transmission to Agent or any Lender of signature pages hereof purporting to be signed on behalf of any Guarantor shall constitute effective and binding execution and delivery hereof by such Guarantor.

12. Setoff, Default Payments by Borrower .

(a) In the event that at any time any obligation of the Guarantors now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty shall have become due and payable, the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall have the right from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, to set off against and apply to such due and payable amount any obligation of any nature of any Lender or the Agent, or any subsidiary or affiliate of any Lender or Agent, to any Guarantor, including but not limited to all deposits (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited, however evidenced) now or hereafter maintained by any Guarantor with the Agent or any Lender or any IRH Provider. Such right shall be absolute and unconditional in all circumstances and, without limitation, shall exist whether or not the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, shall have given any notice or made any demand under this Guaranty or under such obligation to the Guarantor, whether such obligation to the Guarantor is absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured (it being agreed that the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may deem such obligation to be then due and payable at the time of such setoff), and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any collateral, guaranty, or other direct or indirect security or right or remedy available to the Agent or any of the Lenders. The rights of the Agent and the Lenders under this Section are in addition to such other rights and remedies (including, without

 

- 6 -


limitation, other rights of setoff and banker’s lien) which the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may have, and nothing in this Guaranty or in any other Loan Document shall be deemed a waiver of or restriction on the right of setoff or banker’s lien of the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any affiliate or subsidiary of the Agent or any of the Lenders and any holder of a participation in any obligation of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, shall have the same rights of setoff as the Agent and the Lenders as provided in this Section (regardless of whether such affiliate or participant otherwise would be deemed a creditor of the Guarantor).

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation beyond any applicable cure period of any default under any Guarantied Obligation, if any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or for the account of Borrower, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of each Lender and Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be credited and applied to the Guarantied Obligations when due and payable.

13. Construction . The section and other headings contained in this Guaranty are for reference purposes only and shall not affect interpretation of this Guaranty in any respect. This Guaranty has been fully negotiated between the applicable parties, each party having the benefit of legal counsel, and accordingly neither any doctrine of construction of guaranties or suretyships in favor of the guarantor or surety, nor any doctrine of construction of ambiguities in agreement or instruments against the party controlling the drafting thereof, shall apply to this Guaranty.

14. Successors and Assigns . This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, and their successors and permitted assigns provided, however, that no Guarantor may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein and any such purported assignment or transfer shall be null and void. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them (and any successive assignee or transferee), from time to time may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or any portion of any commitment to extend credit), or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other person and such Guarantied Obligations (including any Guarantied Obligations resulting from extension of credit by such other Person under or in connection with the Loan Documents) shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty, and to the extent of its interest in such Guarantied Obligations such other Person shall be vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Agent and the Lenders in this Guaranty or otherwise.

15. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial .

(a) Governing Law . This Guaranty shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflict of laws principles.

(b) Certain Waivers . Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably:

 

- 7 -


(i) Certain Waivers; Submission to Jurisdiction . Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County and the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, and waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process be made by certified or registered mail directed to the Borrower at the address provided for in the Credit Agreement and service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon actual receipt thereof. Each Guarantor waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted against it as provided herein and agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue.

Each Guarantor hereby appoints a process agent, Corporation Service Company, as its agent to receive on behalf of such party and its respective property, service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any of the Guarantors in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s address, and each of the Guarantors hereby authorizes and directs the Process Agent to receive such service on its behalf. Each Guarantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions (or any political subdivision thereof) by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Each Guarantor further agrees that it shall, for so long as any Commitment, Letter of Credit or any Obligation of any Loan Party to the Lender remains outstanding, continue to retain Process Agent for the purposes set forth in this Section 15. The Process Agent hereby accepts the appointment of Process Agent by the Guarantors and agrees to act as Process Agent on behalf of the Guarantors. The Process Agent has an address of, on the date hereof, 2711 Centerville Road, Suite 400, Wilmington, DE 19808.

(ii) Waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted against it as provided herein and agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue.

(iii) WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

16. Severability; Modification to Conform to Law .

(a) It is the intention of the parties that this Guaranty be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, but that the unenforceability (or modification to conform to such law) of any provision or provisions hereof shall not render unenforceable, or impair, the remainder hereof. If any provision in this Guaranty shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, this Guaranty shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed amended to modify or delete, as necessary, the offending provision or provisions and to alter the bounds thereof in order to render it or them valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision or provisions in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

(b) Without limitation of the preceding subsection (a), to the extent that applicable law (including applicable laws pertaining to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent or preferential transfer) otherwise would render the full amount of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder invalid, voidable, or unenforceable on account of the amount of a Guarantor’s aggregate liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the aggregate amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Agent or any of the Lenders or such Guarantor or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding, which (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) may be an amount which is equal to the greater of:

(i) the fair consideration actually received by such Guarantor under the terms and as a result of the Loan Documents and the value of the benefits described in Section 16(b) hereof, including (and to the extent not inconsistent with applicable federal and state laws affecting the enforceability of guaranties) distributions, commitments, and advances made to or for the benefit of such Guarantor with the proceeds of any credit extended under the Loan Documents; or

(ii) the excess of (1) the amount of the fair value of the assets of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty as determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof, over (2) the amount of all liabilities of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty, also as determined on the basis of applicable federal and state laws governing the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section or elsewhere in this Guaranty, this Guaranty shall be presumptively valid and enforceable to its full extent in accordance with its terms, as if this Section (and references elsewhere in this Guaranty to enforceability to the fullest extent permitted by law) were not a part of this Guaranty, and in any related litigation the burden of proof shall be on the party asserting the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof or asserting any limitation on any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as to each element of such assertion.

17. Additional Guarantors . At any time after the initial execution and delivery of this Guaranty to the Agent and the Lenders, additional Persons may become parties to this Guaranty and thereby acquire the duties and rights of being Guarantors hereunder by executing and delivering to the Agent and the Lenders a Guarantor Joinder and Assumption Agreement pursuant to the Credit Agreement. No notice of the addition of any Guarantor shall be required to be given to any pre-existing Guarantor and each Guarantor hereby consents thereto.

18. Joint and Several Obligations . The obligations and additional liabilities of the Guarantors under this Agreement are joint and several obligations of the Guarantors, and each Guarantor hereby waives to the full extent permitted by law any defense it may otherwise have to the payment and performance of the Obligations that its liability hereunder is limited and not joint and several. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers and those set forth below serve as a material inducement to the agreement of the Agent and the Lenders to

 

- 9 -


make the Loans, and that the Agent and the Lenders are relying on each specific waiver and all such waivers in entering into this Guaranty. The undertakings of each Guarantor hereunder secure the obligations of itself and the other Guarantors. The Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Guaranty against any Guarantor without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Guarantor and such an election by the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Guarantor. Each of the Lenders and Agent hereby reserve all rights against each Guarantor.

19. Receipt of Credit Agreement, Other Loan Documents, Benefits .

(a) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Guarantor certifies that the representations and warranties made therein with respect to such Guarantor are true and correct. Further, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees to perform, comply with, and be bound by all of the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges, represents, and warrants that it receives synergistic benefits by virtue of its affiliation with Borrower and the other Guarantors and that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and that such benefits, together with the rights of contribution and subrogation that may arise in connection herewith are a reasonably equivalent exchange of value in return for providing this Guaranty.

20. Miscellaneous .

(a) Generality of Certain Terms . As used in this Guaranty, the terms “hereof,” “herein,” and terms of similar import refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not to any particular term or provision; the term “including,” as used herein, is not a term of limitation and means “including, without limitation.”

(b) Amendments, Waivers . No amendment to or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless in a writing manually signed by or on behalf of the Agent and the Lenders. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No delay or failure of the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, in exercising any right or remedy under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies available hereunder, under any other agreement or instrument, by law, or otherwise.

(c) Telecommunications . Each Lender and Agent shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any individual making any telecopy or telephonic notice, request, or signature without the necessity of receipt of any verification thereof.

 

- 10 -


(d) Expenses . Each Guarantor unconditionally agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Agent or any of the Lenders in enforcing this Guaranty against any Guarantor and each Guarantor shall pay and indemnify each Lender and Agent for, and hold it harmless from and against, any and all obligations, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses (including disbursements and reasonable legal fees of counsel to any Lender or Agent), penalties, judgments, suits, actions, claims, and disbursements imposed on, asserted against, or incurred by any Lender or Agent (A) relating to the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement of or collection under this Guaranty or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to any of the Obligations, including in any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding in any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof; (B) relating to any amendment, modification, waiver, or consent hereunder or relating to any telecopy or telephonic transmission purporting to be by any Guarantor or Borrower; (C) in any way relating to or arising out of this Guaranty, or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to any of the Guarantied Obligations, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Lender or Agent hereunder, and including those arising directly or indirectly from the violation or asserted violation by any Guarantor or Borrower or Agent or any Lender of any law, rule, regulation, judgment, order, or the like of any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof (including those relating to environmental protection, health, labor, importing, exporting, or safety) and regardless whether asserted by any governmental entity or any other Person.

(e) Prior Understandings . This Guaranty and the Credit Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all other prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements.

(f) Survival . All representations and warranties of the Guarantors made in connection with this Guaranty shall survive, and shall not be waived by, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, any investigation by or knowledge of the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, any extension of credit, or any other event or circumstance whatsoever.

Such an investigation performed by the Administrative Agent shall be at the Indemnitors’ expense if the performance of the investigation is commenced (i) upon the occurrence of a default hereunder or of a default or “Event of Default” under any of the Loan Documents; or (ii) because the Administrative Agent has a reasonable belief that the Indemnitor has violated any provision of this Agreement (including any representation, warranty or covenant).

(vi) the enforcement of this Agreement or the assertion by the Indemnitor of any defense to its obligations hereunder.

The Indemnitors’ indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 6 shall be in effect and enforceable regardless of whether any such indemnification obligations arise before or after termination of the Lease or other taking of possession to all or any portion of the Property by the Administrative Agent or any affiliate of the Administrative Agent, and whether the underlying

Administrative Agent hereunder, unless such failure results in additional Environmental Damage.

7. Indemnitors’ Obligation to Perform Corrective Work .

(a) The Indemnitor shall have the obligation to promptly commence and perform any corrective work required to address any Environmental Damages or Contamination, including any actions required by the Indemnitor under Section 6 (“ Corrective Work ”) after the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the Indemnitor obtains actual knowledge of any Contamination on, in, under, affecting, or migrating to or from the Property or any surrounding areas; or (ii) an event occurs for which the Administrative Agent can seek indemnification from the Indemnitor pursuant to Section 6.

Such written notice shall contain the name of the person or entity performing such Corrective Work and shall be accompanied by: (i) written evidence, satisfactory in form and content to the Administrative Agent, showing that such person or entity is fully insured against any and all injury and damages caused by or resulting from the performance of such Corrective Work; and (ii) copies of the plans for such Corrective Work, approved in writing by the appropriate governmental authorities.

(d) Any failure by the Administrative Agent to object to any actions taken by the Indemnitor shall not be construed to be an approval by the Administrative Agent of such actions. This Agreement shall not be construed as creating any obligation for the Administrative Agent to initiate any contests or to perform or review the Indemnitors’ or any other party’s performance of, any Corrective Work, or disburse any funds for any contests or the performance of any Corrective Work.

8. Administrative Agent’s Right to Select Engineers, Consultants and Attorneys .

-8-

9. Indemnitors’ Obligation to Deliver Property .

The Indemnitors’ obligations as set forth in this Section are strictly for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders as holders of any portion of the Loan and shall not in any way impair or affect the Administrative Agent’s right to assume the Lease.

10. Administrative Agent’s Right to Cure . In addition to the other remedies provided to the Administrative Agent in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, should the Indemnitor fail to abide by any provisions of this Agreement, subject to the terms of the Lease, the Administrative Agent may, should it elect to do so, perform any Corrective Work and any other such actions as it, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to repair, respond to and remedy any damage to the Property caused by Hazardous Substances or Contamination or any such Corrective Work. In such event, all funds expended by the Administrative Agent in connection with the performance of any Corrective Work, including all contractor charges, reasonable attorneys’ fees, engineering fees, consultant fees and similar charges, shall become a part of the obligation secured by the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents and shall be due and payable by the Indemnitor on demand. Each disbursement made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this provision shall bear interest at the lower of the rate of interest after default (as contained in Section 3.3.1 of the Credit Agreement) or the highest rate allowable under applicable laws from the date the Indemnitor shall have received written notice that the funds have been advanced by the Administrative Agent until paid in full.

11. Scope of Liability . The liability under this Agreement shall in no way be limited or impaired by: (a) any extension of time for performance required by any of the Loan Documents; (b) any assignment of the Credit Agreement or Loan Documents; (c) the discharge of the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents; (d) any exculpatory provisions in any of the Loan Documents limiting the Administrative Agent’s recourse; (e) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by the Indemnitor, or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents; (f) the release of the Indemnitor or any guarantor or any other person from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents by operation of law, the Administrative Agent’s voluntary act or otherwise; (g) the release or substitution, in whole or in part, of any security for the Note or other obligations; or (h) the Administrative Agent’s failure to file any UCC financing statements (or

 

-9-


the Administrative Agent’s improper recording or filing of any thereof) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for the Credit Agreement or other obligations; and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to the Indemnitor or any guarantor or other person or entity and with or without consideration.

12. Notices . All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications required or permitted hereunder (“ Notices ”) must be in writing and will be effective upon receipt. Notices may be given in any manner to which the parties may separately agree, including electronic mail. Without limiting the foregoing, first class mail, facsimile transmission and commercial courier service are hereby agreed to as acceptable methods for giving Notices. Regardless of the manner in which provided, Notices may be sent to a party’s address as set forth above or to such other address any party may give to the other for such purpose in accordance with this section.

13. Preservation of Rights . No delay or omission on the Administrative Agent’s part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Administrative Agent’s action or inaction impair any such right or power. The Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent may have under other agreements, at law or in equity. Any representations, warranties, covenants or indemnification liabilities for breach thereof contained in this Agreement shall not be affected by any knowledge of, or investigations performed by, the Administrative Agent. Any one or more persons or entities comprising the Indemnitor, or any other party liable upon or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan, may be released without affecting the liability of any party not so released.

14. Illegality . If any provision contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, it shall not affect or impair the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

15. Changes in Writing . No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Indemnitor from, any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless made in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Indemnitor will entitle the Indemnitor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.

16. Successors and Assigns; Survival . This Agreement will be binding upon the Indemnitor and its heirs, administrators, successors and assigns, and will inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and its successors and assigns as well as any persons or entities who acquire possession of the Property from, or through action by, the Administrative Agent; provided , however , that the Indemnitor may not assign this Agreement in whole or in part without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent and the Administrative Agent at any time may assign this Agreement in whole or in part to any Person who succeeds the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents or who acts on behalf of the Administrative Agent in connection with the exercise of its rights pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Credit

 

-10-


Agreement. The Indemnitors’ obligations under this Agreement shall survive any transfer of possession of the Property by the Indemnitor or the Administrative Agent and payment of the Loan in full.

Section headings in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. If this Agreement is executed by more than one party as Indemnitor, the obligations of such persons or entities will be joint and several.

18. Governing Law and Jurisdiction . This Agreement has been delivered to and accepted by the Administrative Agent and will be deemed to be made in the State of Pennsylvania. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE INTERPRETED AND THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA, EXCLUDING ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES. The Indemnitor hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the county or judicial district where the Administrative Agent’s office indicated above is located; provided that nothing contained in this Agreement will prevent the Administrative Agent from bringing any action, enforcing any award or judgment or exercising any rights against the Indemnitor individually, against any security or against any property of the Indemnitor within any other county, state or other foreign or domestic jurisdiction. The Administrative Agent and the Indemnitor agree that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Administrative Agent and the Indemnitor. The Indemnitor waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Agreement.

19. Further Assurances . Indemnitor will, at the cost of Indemnitor, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrative Agent such further documents and statements and do or cause to be done such acts or things as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate to effect the transactions contemplated hereby or to confirm the assumption of and agreement to pay, perform and discharge the liabilities and obligations hereby assumed and agreed to be paid, performed or discharged, or intended so to be.

INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

THIS INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of January 28, 2009 and is made by and among the entities listed on the signature page hereto and each Person who hereafter becomes a Guarantor under the Credit Agreement (as defined below) (subsequently joining this Agreement) (each being individually referred to herein as a “Company” and collectively as the “Companies”).

WITNESSETH THAT:

WHEREAS, each capitalized term used herein shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meaning specified in that certain Credit Agreement dated as of even date herewith (as it may be hereafter amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) by and among Under Armour, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors now or hereafter party thereto, the Lenders now or hereafter party thereto (the “Lenders”) PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”) for the Lenders, SunTrust Bank, as Syndication Agent, and Compass Bank, as Documentation Agent; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents referred to and defined in the Credit Agreement, the Lenders intend to make Loans to the Borrower; and

WHEREAS, the Companies are or may become indebted to each other (the Indebtedness of each of the Companies to any other Company, now existing or hereafter incurred (whether created directly or acquired by assignment or otherwise), and interest and premiums, if any, thereon and other amounts payable in respect thereof are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Intercompany Indebtedness”); and

WHEREAS, the obligations of the Lenders to maintain the Commitments and make Loans to the Borrower from time to time are subject to the condition, among others, that the Companies subordinate the Intercompany Indebtedness to the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Company to the Agent or the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge (collectively, the “Senior Debt”) in the manner set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

1. Intercompany Indebtedness Subordinated to Senior Debt . The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated by reference. All Intercompany Indebtedness shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions contained herein.


2. Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. Upon any distribution of assets of any Company in the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to any such Company or to its creditors, as such, or to its assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of any such Company, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of assets and liabilities of any such Company (a Company distributing assets as set forth herein being referred to in such capacity as a “Distributing Company”), then and in any such event, the Agent shall be entitled to receive, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due or to become due (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) on or in respect of any and all Senior Debt before the holder of any Intercompany Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company is entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal of or interest on such Intercompany Indebtedness, and to that end, the Agent shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment of the Senior Debt, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Intercompany Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company in any such case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up event.

3. No Commencement of Any Proceeding . Each Company agrees that, so long as the Senior Debt shall remain unpaid, it will not commence, or join with any creditor other than the Lenders and the Agent in commencing, any proceeding referred to in Section 2 herein against any other Company which owes it any Intercompany Indebtedness.

4. Prior Payment of Senior Debt Upon Acceleration of Intercompany Indebtedness . If any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness owed by any Company becomes or is declared due and payable before its stated maturity, then and in such event the Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to receive indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due and to become due on or in respect of the Senior Debt (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) before the holder of any such Intercompany Indebtedness is entitled to receive any payment thereon.

5. No Payment When Senior Debt in Default . If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or such an Event of Default or Potential Default would result from or exist after giving effect to a payment with respect to any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness, unless the Required Lenders shall have consented to or waived the same, so long as any of the Senior Debt shall remain outstanding, no payment shall be made by any Company owing such Intercompany Indebtedness on account of principal or interest on any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness.

6. Payment Permitted if No Default . Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any of the Companies, at any time except during the pendency of any of the conditions

 

- 2 -


described in Sections 2, 4 and 5, from making payments at any time of principal of or interest on any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness, or the retention thereof by any of the Companies of any money deposited with them for the payment of or on account of the principal of or interest on the Intercompany Indebtedness.

7. Receipt of Prohibited Payments . If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 2, 4, 5 and 6, a Company which is owed Intercompany Indebtedness by a Distributing Company shall have received any payment or distribution of assets from the Distributing Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by such Company, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to or held as collateral (in the case of noncash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment of the Senior Debt in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

8. Rights of Subrogation . Each Company agrees that no payment or distribution to the Agent or the Lenders pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle it to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until the Senior Debt shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and the Letters of Credit have expired.

9. Instruments Evidencing Intercompany Indebtedness . Each Company shall cause each instrument which now or hereafter evidences all or a portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness to be conspicuously marked as follows:

“This instrument is subject to the terms of an Intercompany Subordination Agreement dated as of January 28, 2009 in favor of PNC Bank, National Association, as Agent for the Lenders referred to therein, which Intercompany Subordination Agreement is incorporated herein by reference. Notwithstanding any contrary statement contained in this instrument, no payment on account of the principal thereof or interest thereon shall become due or payable except in accordance with the express terms of said Intercompany Subordination Agreement.”

Each Company will further mark its books of account in such a manner as shall be effective to give proper notice of the effect of this Agreement.

10. Agreement Solely to Define Relative Rights . The purpose of this Agreement is solely to define the relative rights of the Companies, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair, as between any of the Companies and their creditors other than the Agent and the Lenders, the obligation of the Companies to each other to pay the principal of and interest on the Intercompany Indebtedness as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights among the Companies and their

 

- 3 -


creditors other than the Agent and the Lenders, nor shall anything herein prevent any of the Companies from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable Law upon default under any agreement pursuant to which the Intercompany Indebtedness is created, subject to the rights, if any, under this Agreement of the Agent and the Lenders to receive cash, property or securities otherwise payable or deliverable with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness.

11. No Implied Waivers of Subordination . No right of the Agent or any Lender to enforce subordination, as herein provided, shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Company or by any act or failure to act by the Agent or any Lender, or by any non-compliance by any Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of any agreement pursuant to which the Intercompany Indebtedness is created, regardless of any knowledge thereof with which the Agent or any Lender may have or be otherwise charged. Each Company by its acceptance hereof shall agree that, so long as there is Senior Debt outstanding or Commitments in effect under the Credit Agreement, such Company shall not agree to sell, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or agree to compromise, the obligations of the other Companies with respect to their Intercompany Indebtedness, other than by means of payment of such Intercompany Indebtedness according to its terms, without the prior written consent of the Agent.

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the Agent or any of the Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Companies, without incurring responsibility to the Companies and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Agreement or the obligations hereunder of the Companies to the Agent and the Lenders, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment, or extend the time of payment, renew or alter the Senior Debt or otherwise amend or supplement the Senior Debt or the Loan Documents; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing the Senior Debt; (iii) release any person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Senior Debt; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any of the Companies and any other person.

12. Additional Subsidiaries . The Companies covenant and agree that they shall cause Subsidiaries created or acquired after the date of this Agreement, and any other Subsidiaries required to join this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2.8 [Subsidiaries] or otherwise under the Credit Agreement, to execute a Guarantor Joinder in substantially the form of Exhibit 1.1(G)(1) to the Credit Agreement, whereby such Subsidiary joins this Agreement and subordinates all Indebtedness owed to any such Subsidiary by any of the Companies or other Subsidiaries hereafter created or acquired to the Senior Debt.

13. Continuing Force and Effect . This Agreement shall continue in force for so long as any portion of the Senior Debt remains unpaid and any Commitments or Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement remain outstanding, it being contemplated that this Agreement be of a continuing nature.

 

- 4 -


14. Modification, Amendments or Waivers . Any and all agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or the rights of the Agent or the Lenders hereunder, and any and all waivers or consents to Events of Default or other departures from the due performance of the Companies hereunder, shall be made only by written agreement, waiver or consent signed by the Agent, acting on behalf of all the Lenders, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent being effective to bind all the Lenders.

15. Expenses . The Companies unconditionally and jointly and severally agree upon demand to pay to the Agent and the Lenders the amount of any and all out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements, including fees and expenses of counsel (including the allocated costs of staff counsel) for which reimbursement is customarily obtained, which the Agent or any of the Lenders may incur in connection with (a) the administration of this Agreement, (b) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Agent or the Lenders hereunder, or (c) the failure by the Companies to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

16. Severability . The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

17. Governing Law . This Agreement shall be a contract under the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without giving effect to its principles of conflict of laws.

18. Successors and Assigns . This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and the obligations of the Companies shall be binding upon their respective successors and permitted assigns, provided, that no company may assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein and any such purported assignment or transfer shall be null and void. The duties and obligations of the Companies may not be delegated or transferred by the Companies without the written consent of the Required Lenders and any such delegation or transfer without such consent shall be null and void. Except to the extent otherwise required by the context of this Agreement, the word “Lenders” when used herein shall include, without limitation, any holder of a Note or an assignment of rights therein originally issued to a Lender under the Credit Agreement, and each such holder of a Note or assignment shall have the benefits of this Agreement to the same extent as if such holder had originally been a Lender under the Credit Agreement.

19. Joint and Several Obligations . Each of the obligations of each and every Company under this Agreement is joint and several. The Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Agreement against any Company without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Company and such an election by the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Agent and the Lenders, or any of

 

- 5 -


them, may elect to take against any Company. Each of the Lenders and Agent hereby reserve all rights against each Company.

20. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

21. Attorneys-in-Fact . Each of the Companies hereby authorizes and empowers the Agent, at its election and in the name of either itself, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, or in the name of each such Company as is owed Intercompany Indebtedness, to execute and file proofs and documents and take any other action the Agent may deem advisable to completely protect the Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Intercompany Indebtedness and their right of enforcement thereof, and to that end each of the Companies hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Agent, its officers, employees and agents, or any of them, with full power of substitution, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent of such Company, and with full power for such Company, and in the name, place and stead of such Company for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, and taking any action and executing, delivering, filing and recording any instruments which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which power of attorney, being given for security, is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Each Company hereby ratifies and confirms, and agrees to ratify and confirm, all action taken by the Agent, its officers, employees or agents pursuant to the foregoing power of attorney.

22. Application of Payments . In the event any payments are received by the Agent under the terms of this Agreement for application to the Senior Debt at any time when the Senior Debt has not been declared due and payable and prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable, such payment shall constitute a voluntary prepayment of the Senior Debt for all purposes under the Credit Agreement.

23. Remedies .

(l) During the term of this Agreement, such Pledgor shall not permit any Company to treat any uncertificated ownership interests as securities which are subject to Article 8 of the Code.

6. Other Rights With Respect to Pledged Collateral.

In addition to the other rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder, at any time and from time to time, after and during the continuation of an Event of Default and following acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent, at its option and at the expense of the Pledgors, may: (a) transfer into its own name, or into the name of its nominee, all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, thereafter receiving all dividends, income or other distributions upon the Pledged Collateral; (b) take control of and manage all or any of the Pledged Collateral; (c) apply to the payment of any of the Secured Obligations, whether any be due and payable or not, any moneys, including cash dividends and income from any Pledged Collateral, now or hereafter in the hands of the Administrative Agent or provider of Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, on deposit or otherwise, belonging to any Pledgor, as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall determine; and (d) do anything which any Pledgor is required but fails to do hereunder.

(a) The Administrative Agent may, after ten (10) days’ advance notice to the a Pledgor, sell, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of such Pledgor’s Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Pledgor agrees that ten (10) days’ advance notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales of the Pledged Collateral to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities, shares, capital stock, member interests, partnership interests or ownership interests for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution

 

- 7 -


or resale thereof. The Administrative Agent shall complete all sales, assignments, options or other dispositions in compliance with all applicable securities laws.

(b) The proceeds of any collection, sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, shall, after the Administrative Agent has made all deductions of expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in connection with repossession, collection, sale or disposition of such Pledged Collateral or in connection with the enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral, including in any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings, be applied against the Secured Obligations, whether or not all the same be then due and payable, as set forth in Section 8.2.5 of the Credit Agreement [Application of Proceeds].

8. Administrative Agent’s Duties.

The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Pledged Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Pledged Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Pledged Collateral.

9. Additional Pledgors.

It is anticipated that additional persons will from time to time become Subsidiaries of the Borrower or a Guarantor and will own equity interests in a Subsidiary. In such instance, each Subsidiary will be required to join this Pledge Agreement. It is acknowledged and agreed that such Subsidiaries of the Borrower or of a Guarantor will become Pledgors hereunder and will be bound hereby simply by executing and delivering to Administrative Agent a Guarantor Joinder in the form of Exhibit 1.1(G)(1) to the Credit Agreement. In addition, a new Schedule A hereto shall be provided to Administrative Agent showing the pledge of such equity interests owned by the new Subsidiary.

10. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided under the other Loan Documents or by Law. Each Pledgor waives any right to require the Administrative Agent to proceed against any other Person or to exhaust any of the Pledged Collateral or other security for the Secured Obligations or to pursue any remedy in the Administrative Agent’s power.

11. No Discharge Until Indefeasible Payment of the Secured Obligations.

The pledge, security interests, and other Liens and the obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by Administrative Agent, or any other obligor on any of

 

- 8 -


the Secured Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Pledgor or which would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Pledgor as a matter of law or equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor hereby consents to, and the pledge, security interests, and other Liens given by such Pledgor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following at any time and from time to time:

(a) any lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability, or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document, any obligations in connection with any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation, or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Secured Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or any rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Person with respect thereto;

(b) any increase, decrease, or change in the amount, nature, type or purpose of any of or any release, surrender, exchange, compromise or settlement of any of the Secured Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Loan Documents as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Secured Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Loan Document, any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations;

(c) any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document, any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents or any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against such Pledgor or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document or any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Pledgor; or any application of collections (including collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Secured Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, in preference to Secured Obligations or, if any collections are applied to Secured Obligations, any application to particular Secured Obligations;

(d) any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, supplement, termination, subordination, release, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action by the Administrative Agent or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization

(g) any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of a guarantor or a surety, including any Pledgor, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in full.

12. Taxes.

(a) No Deductions . All payments and collections made by or from any Pledgor under this Agreement shall be made or received free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of Administrative Agent and all income and franchise taxes of the United States applicable to Administrative Agent (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Pledgor shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable or any collection made under this Agreement, (i) the sum payable or collectable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable or collectable under this Subsection) Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Pledgor shall make such deductions and (iii) such Pledgor shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant tax authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

- 10 -

(c) Indemnification for Taxes Paid by Administrative Agent . Each Pledgor acknowledges that the Pledged Collateral secures the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 12) paid by Administrative Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.

(d) Certificate . In the event any Pledgor pays any Taxes or Other Taxes, within 30 days after the date of any such payment, such Pledgor shall furnish to Administrative Agent, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(e) Survival .

- 11 -


reorganization, or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against such Pledgor or the Borrower, or any other Person of any other right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document, any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and any requirement that any Pledgor receive notice of any such acceptance; and

14. Assignment.

All rights of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns.

17. Notices.

- 12 -


18. Specific Performance.

Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, in addition to the other rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, because the Administrative Agent’s remedies at law for failure of such Pledgor to comply with the provisions hereof relating to the Administrative Agent’s rights (i) to inspect the books and records related to the Pledged Collateral, (ii) to receive the various notifications such Pledgor is required to deliver hereunder, (iii) to obtain copies of agreements and documents as provided herein with respect to the Pledged Collateral, (iv) to enforce the provisions hereof pursuant to which the such Pledgor has appointed the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact, and (v) to enforce the Administrative Agent’s remedies hereunder, would be inadequate and that any such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, such Pledgor agrees that each such provision hereof may be specifically enforced.

19. Voting Rights in Respect of the Pledged Collateral.

So long as no Event of Default shall occur and be continuing under the Credit Agreement, each Pledgor may exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided , however , that such Pledgor will not exercise or will refrain from exercising any such voting and other consensual right pertaining to the Pledged Collateral, as the case may be, if such action would have a material adverse effect on the value of any Pledged Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition thereto, the Pledgors shall not vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, any of the Companies to issue any stock, member interests, partnership interests or other equity securities, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests of any nature or to issue any other securities, shares, capital stock, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any stock, member interests, partnership interests or other equity securities, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests of any nature of any such Company or to enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of the Pledgor or the Administrative Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Pledged Collateral.

20. Consent to Jurisdiction.

Each Pledgor and each of the Companies hereby irrevocably submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any Maryland State or Federal Court sitting in Baltimore County, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and Pledgors and each of the Companies hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Maryland State or Federal court. Each Pledgor and each of the Companies hereby waives to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding. Each Pledgor and each of the Companies hereby appoints the process agent identified below (the “Process Agent”) as its agent to receive on behalf of such party and its respective property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any of the Pledgors or the

 

- 13 -


Companies in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s address, and each of the Pledgors and the Companies hereby authorizes and directs the Process Agent to receive such service on its behalf.

22. Entire Agreement; Amendments.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements relating to a grant of a security interest in the Pledged Collateral by any Pledgor. This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented except by a writing signed by the Administrative Agent and the Pledgors.

23. Counterparts; Telecopy Signatures.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that a telecopy or other electronic transmission to the Administrative Agent or any Lender of the signature pages hereof purporting to be signed on behalf of any Pledgor shall constitute effective and binding execution and delivery hereof by such Pledgor.

WITNESSETH THAT:

WHEREAS, the Debtors are (or will be with respect to after-acquired property) the legal and beneficial owners and the holders of the Collateral (as defined in Section 1 hereof); and

(ii) to the extent, if any, not included in clause (i) above, each and every other item of personal property and fixtures, whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired, including, without limitation, all licenses, contracts and agreements, and all collateral for the payment or performance of any contract or agreement, together with all products and Proceeds (including all insurance policies and proceeds) of any Accessions to any of the foregoing; and

(iii) all present and future business records and information, including computer tapes and other storage media containing the same and computer programs and software (including, without limitation, source code, object code and related manuals and documentation and all licenses to use such software) for accessing and manipulating such information.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Collateral’ shall specifically exclude the Trademarks (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of each of the Debtors.

(c) “Secured Obligations” shall mean and include the following: (i) all now existing and hereafter arising Obligations of each and every Debtor to the Agent, the Lenders, or any provider of a Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or an Other Lender Provided Financial Services Product (an “IRH Provider”) under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including all obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, of each and every Debtor to the Agent, the Lenders, or any IRH Provider, now existing or hereafter incurred under the Credit Agreement or the Notes or the Guaranty Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as any of the same or any one or more of them may from time to time be amended, restated, modified, or supplemented, together with any and all extensions, renewals, refinancings, and refundings thereof in whole or in part (and including obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising or accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower or which would have arisen or accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding, even if the claim for such obligation, liability or indebtedness is not enforceable or allowable in such proceeding, and including all obligations, liabilities and indebtedness arising from any extensions of credit under or in connection with the Loan Documents from time to time, regardless whether any such extensions of credit are in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents or are made in circumstances in which any condition to extension of credit is not satisfied); (ii) all reimbursement obligations of each and every Debtor with respect to any one or more Letters of Credit issued by Agent or any Lender; (iii) all indebtedness, loans, obligations, expenses and liabilities of each and every Debtor to the Agent, any of the Lenders, or any IRH Provider, arising out of any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender

(d) “Receivables” means all of the Collateral except Equipment and Inventory.

2. As security for the due and punctual payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in full, each Debtor hereby agrees that the Agent and the Lenders and any IRH Provider shall have, and each Debtor hereby grants to and creates in favor of the Agent for the benefit of itself, the Lenders and any IRH Provider, a continuing first priority lien on and security interest under the Code in and to the Collateral subject only to Permitted Liens. Without limiting the generality of Section 4 below, each Debtor further agrees that with respect to each item of Collateral as to which (i) the creation of a valid and enforceable security interest is not governed exclusively by the Code or (ii) the perfection of a valid and enforceable first priority security interest therein under the Code cannot be accomplished either by the Agent taking possession thereof or by the filing in appropriate locations of appropriate Code financing statements executed by such Debtor, such Debtor will at its expense execute and deliver to the Agent and hereby does authorize the Agent to execute and file such documents, agreements, notices, assignments and instruments and take such further actions as may be requested by the Agent from time to time for the purpose of creating a valid and perfected first priority Lien on such item, subject only to Permitted Liens, enforceable against such Debtor and all third parties to secure the Secured Obligations.

3. Each Debtor represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders that: (a) subject to Permitted Liens, such Debtor has good and marketable title to its Collateral; (b) except for the security interest granted to and created in favor of the Agent for the benefit of itself and the Lenders hereunder and Permitted Liens, all the Collateral is free and clear of any Lien; (c) each Debtor will defend the Collateral against all claims and demands of all persons at any time claiming the same or any interest therein; (d) each Account Receivable is genuine and enforceable in accordance with its terms and such Debtor will defend the same against all claims, demands, recoupment, setoffs, and counterclaims at any time asserted; (e) at the time any Account Receivable becomes subject to this Agreement, each such Account Receivable will be a good and valid Account Receivable representing a bona fide sale of goods or services by such Debtor and such goods will have been shipped to the respective account debtors or the services will have been performed for the respective account debtors, (or for those on behalf of whom the account debtors are obligated on the Account Receivables) and no such Account Receivable will at such time be subject to any claim for credit, allowance, setoff, recoupment, defense, counterclaim or adjustment by any account debtor or otherwise, except to the extent permitted by Schedule 1.1(C) of the Credit Agreement; (f) the exact legal name of each Debtor is as set forth

 

- 3 -


on the signature page hereto; and (g) the state of incorporation, formation or organization, as applicable, of such Debtor is as set forth on Schedule A hereto.

4. Each Debtor will faithfully preserve and protect the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral as a prior perfected security interest under the Code, superior and prior to the rights of all third Persons, except for holders of Permitted Liens, and will do all such other acts and things and will, upon request therefor by the Agent, execute, deliver, file and record, and each Debtor hereby authorizes the Agent to so file, all such other documents and instruments, including, without limitation, financing statements, security agreements, assignments and documents and powers of attorney with respect to the Collateral, and pay all filing fees and taxes related thereto, as the Agent, in its reasonable discretion, may deem necessary or advisable from time to time in order to attach, continue, preserve, perfect, and protect said security interest (including the filing at any time or times after the date hereof of financing statements under, and in the locations advisable pursuant to, the Code); and, each Debtor hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent, its officers, employees and agents, or any of them, as attorneys-in-fact for such Debtor to execute, deliver, file and record such items for such Debtor and in such Debtor’s name, place and stead. This power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable for the life of this Agreement.

5. Each Debtor jointly and severally covenants and agrees that:

(a) it will defend the Agent’s and the Lenders’ right, title and lien on and security interest in and to the Collateral and the proceeds thereof against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever, other than the holders of Permitted Liens, other than any Person claiming a right in the Collateral pursuant to an agreement between such Person and the Agent;

(b) it will not suffer or permit to exist on any Collateral any Lien except for Permitted Liens;

(c) it will not take or omit to take any action, the taking or the omission of which might result in a material alteration (except as permitted by the Credit Agreement) or impairment of the Collateral or of the Agent’s rights under this Agreement;

(d) it will not sell, assign or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Collateral except as permitted in Section 7.2.6 [Disposition of Assets or Subsidiaries] of the Credit Agreement;

(e) it will (i) except for such Collateral delivered to the Agent pursuant to this Section or otherwise now or hereafter under the control of the Agent, obtain and maintain sole and exclusive possession of the Collateral, (ii) maintain its chief executive office and keep the Collateral and all records pertaining thereto at the locations specified on the Security Interest Data Summary attached as Schedule A hereto, unless it shall have given the Agent prior notice and taken any action reasonably requested by the Agent to maintain its security interest therein, (iii) notify the Agent if an Account Receivable becomes evidenced or secured by an Instrument or Chattel Paper and deliver to the Agent upon the Agent’s request therefor all Collateral consisting of Instruments and Chattel Paper immediately upon such Debtor’s receipt of a request

 

- 4 -


therefor, (iv) deliver to the Agent possession of all Collateral the possession of which is required to perfect the Agent’s lien thereon or security interest therein or the possession of which grants priority over a Person filing a financing statement with respect thereto, (v) if required by the Credit Agreement, execute control agreements and cause other Persons to execute acknowledgments in form and substance satisfactory to the agent evidencing the Agent’s control with respect to all Collateral the control or acknowledgment of which perfects the Agent’s security interest therein, including Letters of Credit, Letter of Credit Rights, Electronic Chattel Paper, Deposit Accounts and Investment Property, and (vi) keep materially accurate and complete books and records concerning the Collateral and such other books and records as the Agent may from time to time reasonably require;

(f) it will promptly furnish to the Agent such information and documents relating to the Collateral as the Agent may reasonably request, including, without limitation, all invoices, Documents, contracts, Chattel Paper, Instruments and other writings pertaining to such Debtor’s contracts or the performance thereof, all of the foregoing to be certified upon request of the Agent by an authorized officer of such Debtor;

(g) it shall immediately notify the Agent if any Account Receivable arises out of contracts with the United States or any department, agency or instrumentality thereof or any one or more of the states of the United States or any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, and will execute any instruments and take any steps required by the Agent so that all monies due and to become due under such contract shall be assigned to the Agent and notice of the assignment given to and acknowledged by the appropriate government agency or authority under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act;

(h) it will not change its state of incorporation, formation or organization, as applicable without providing thirty (30) days prior written notice the Agent;

(i) it will not change its name without providing thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Agent;

(j) it shall preserve its corporate existence and shall not (i) in one, or a series of related transactions, merge into or consolidate with any other entity, the survivor of which is not such Debtor, or (ii) sell all or substantially all or its assets except, in each case, to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement;

(k) if it shall at any time acquire a commercial tort claim, as defined in the Code, such Debtor shall immediately notify the Agent in a writing signed by such Debtor of the details thereof and grant to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, with such writing to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and such writing shall constitute a supplement to Schedule B hereto;

(l) it hereby authorizes the Agent to, at any time and from time to time, file in any one or more jurisdictions financing statements that describe the Collateral, together with continuation statements thereof and amendments thereto, without the signature of such Debtor and which contain any information required by the Code or any other applicable statute

 

- 5 -


applicable to such jurisdiction for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statements, continuation statements, or amendments. Each Debtor agrees to furnish any such information to the Agent promptly upon request. Any such financing statements, continuation statements, or amendments may be signed by Agent on behalf of such Debtor if the Agent so elects and may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction; and

(m) it shall at any time and from time to time take such steps as the Agent may reasonably request as are necessary for the Agent to insure the continued perfection of the Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interest in the Collateral with the same priority required hereby and the preservation of its rights therein.

6. Each Debtor assumes full responsibility for taking any and all necessary steps to preserve the Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights with respect to the Collateral against all Persons other than anyone asserting rights in respect of a Permitted Lien. The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Agent takes such action for that purpose as such Debtor shall request in writing, provided that such requested action will not, in the judgment of the Agent, impair the security interest in the Collateral created hereby or the Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights in, or the value of, the Collateral, and provided further that such written request is received by the Agent in sufficient time to permit the Agent to take the requested action.

7. No Discharge Until Indefeasible Payment of the Secured Obligations.

The pledge, security interests, and other Liens and the obligations of each Debtor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by Agent, or any other obligor on any of the Secured Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Debtor or which would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Debtor as a matter of law or equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Debtor hereby consents to, and the pledge, security interests, and other Liens given by such Debtor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following at any time and from time to time:

(a) any lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability, or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation, or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Secured Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or any rights of the Agent or any other Person with respect thereto;

(b) any increase, decrease, or change in the amount, nature, type or purpose of any of the Secured Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Loan Documents as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Secured Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations;

 

- 6 -


(c) any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against such Debtor or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Debtor; or any application of collections (including collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Secured Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, in preference to Secured Obligations or, if any collections are applied to Secured Obligations, any application to particular Secured Obligations;

(d) any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, supplement, termination, subordination, release, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action by the Agent or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or, any other action or inaction by Agent or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations (including the Collateral). As used in this Agreement, “direct or indirect security” for the Secured Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person;

(e) any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, any Debtor or any other Person; any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to any Debtor or any other Person; or any action taken or election (including any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable law of any jurisdiction) made by Agent or any Debtor or by any other Person in connection with any such proceeding;

(f) any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Debtor or any other Person with respect to any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; or any discharge by operation of law or release of any Debtor or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; or

(g) any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of a guarantor or a surety, including any Debtor, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in full.

 

- 7 -


8. Waivers.

Each Debtor hereby waives any and all defenses which any Debtor may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like and each Debtor hereby waives any defense to or limitation on its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in the immediately preceding section hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Debtor hereby further waives each of the following:

(a) all notices, disclosures and demands of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time to preserve intact any rights against such Debtor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in the immediately preceding section hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Secured Obligations; any notice of any default or any failure on the part of such Debtor or any other Person to comply with any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any requirement pertaining to any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; and any notice or other information pertaining to the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), or prospects of the Borrower or any other Person;

(b) any right to any marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against such Debtor or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against such Debtor or any other Person of any other right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Agent or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and any requirement that any Debtor receive notice of any such acceptance; and

(c) any defense or other right arising by reason of any Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including anti-deficiency laws, “one action” laws, or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Agent (including commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Secured Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Agent to seek a deficiency against the Borrower or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Secured Obligations.

9. The Obligations and additional liabilities of the Debtors under this Agreement are joint and several obligations of the Debtors, and each Debtor hereby waives to the full extent permitted by law any defense it may otherwise have to the payment and performance of the Obligations that its liability hereunder is limited and not joint and several. Each Debtor acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers serve as a material inducement to the

 

- 8 -


agreement of the Agent and the Lenders to make the Loans, and that the Agent and the Lenders are relying on each specific waiver and all such waivers in entering into this Agreement. The undertakings of each Debtor hereunder secure the obligations of itself and the other Debtors. The Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Agreement against any Debtor without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Debtor and such an election by the agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Debtor. Each of the Lenders and Agent hereby reserve all right against each Debtor.

10. (a) At any time and from time to time whether or not an Event of Default then exists and without prior notice to or consent of any Debtor, the Agent may at its option take such actions as the Agent deems appropriate (i) to attach, perfect, continue, preserve and protect the Agent’s and the Lenders’ first priority security interest in or lien on the Collateral, and/or (ii) to inspect, audit and verify the Collateral, including reviewing all of such Debtor’s books and records and copying and making excerpts therefrom, provided that prior to an Event of Default or a Potential Default, the same is done with reasonable advance notice during normal business hours to the extent access to such Debtor’s premises is required, and (iii) to add all liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) to the Secured Obligations, to be paid by the Debtors to the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders upon demand.

(b) At any time and from time to time after an Event of Default exists and is continuing and without prior notice to or consent of any Debtor, the Agent may at its option take such action as the Agent deems appropriate (i) to maintain, repair, protect and insure the Collateral, and/or (ii) to perform, keep, observe and render true and correct any and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of any Debtor hereunder, and (iii) to add all liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) to the Secured Obligations, to be paid by any Debtor to the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders upon demand.

11. After there exists any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement and following acceleration pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Credit Agreement:

(a) The Agent shall have and may exercise all the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the Code in effect at the time, and such other rights and remedies as may be provided by Law and as set forth below, including, without limitation, to take over and collect all of any Debtor’s Account Receivables and all other Collateral, and to this end each Debtor hereby appoints the Agent, its officers, employees and agents, as its irrevocable, true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with all necessary power and authority to: (i) take possession immediately, with or without notice, demand, or legal process, of any of or all of the Collateral wherever found, and for such purposes, enter upon any premises upon which the Collateral may be found and remove the Collateral therefrom; (ii) require any Debtor to assemble the Collateral and deliver it to the Agent or to any place designated by the Agent at such Debtor’s expense; (iii) receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to any Debtor and notify postal authorities to change the address for delivery thereof to such address as the Agent may designate; (iv) demand payment of the Account Receivables; (v) enforce payment of the Account Receivables by legal

 

- 9 -


proceedings or otherwise; (vi) exercise all of any Debtor’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Account Receivables; (vii) settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew the Account Receivables; (viii) settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect the Account Receivables; (ix) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, sell or assign the Account Receivables upon such terms, for such amounts and at such time or times as the Agent deems advisable; (x) discharge and release the Account Receivables; (xi) take control, in any manner, of any item of payment or proceeds from any account debtor; (xii) prepare, file and sign any Debtor’s name on any Proof of Claim in Bankruptcy or similar document against any account debtor; (xiii) prepare, file and sign any Debtor’s name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Account Receivables; (xiv) do all acts and things necessary, in the Agent’s sole discretion, to fulfill any Debtor’s obligations to the Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, Loan Documents or otherwise; (xv) endorse the name of any Debtor upon any check, Chattel Paper, Document, Instrument, invoice, freight bill, bill of lading or similar document or agreement relating to the Account Receivables or Inventory; (xvi) use any Debtor’s stationery and sign such Debtor’s name to verifications of the Account Receivables and notices thereof to account debtors; (xvii) access and use the information recorded on or contained in any data processing equipment or computer hardware or software relating to the Account Receivables, Inventory, or other Collateral or proceeds thereof to which any Debtor has access; (xviii) demand, sue for, collect, compromise and give acquittances for any and all Collateral; (xix) prosecute, defend or compromise any action, claim or proceeding with respect to any of the Collateral; and (xx) take such other action as the Agent may deem appropriate, including extending or modifying the terms of payment of any Debtor’s debtors. This power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable for the life of this Agreement. To the extent permitted by Law, each Debtor hereby waives all claims of damages due to or arising from or connected with any of the rights or remedies exercised by the Agent pursuant to this Agreement, except claims for physical damage to the Collateral arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Agent.

(b) The Agent shall have the right to lease, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any of the Collateral at public or private sale or sales for cash, credit (which shall be applied against the Obligations) or any combination thereof, with such notice as may be required by Law (it being agreed by each Debtor that, in the absence of any contrary requirement of Law, ten (10) days’ prior notice of a public or private sale of Collateral shall be deemed reasonable notice), in lots or in bulk, for cash or on credit (which shall be applied against the Obligations), all as the Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable. Such sales may be adjourned from time to time with or without notice. The Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Debtor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use any Debtor’s premises without charge for such sales for such time or times as the Agent may see fit. The Agent may purchase all or any part of the Collateral at public or, if permitted by Law, private sale and, in lieu of actual payment of such purchase price, may set off the amount of such price against the Secured Obligations.

(c) Each Debtor, at its cost and expense (including the cost and expense of any of the following referenced consents, approvals, etc.) will promptly execute and deliver or cause the execution and delivery of all applications, certificates, instruments, registration statements, and all other documents and papers the Agent may request in connection with the

 

- 10 -


obtaining of any consent, approval, registration, qualification, permit, license, accreditation, or authorization of any other Official Body or other Person necessary or appropriate for the effective exercise of any rights hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Debtor agrees that in the event the Agent on behalf of itself and/or the Lenders shall exercise its rights hereunder or pursuant to the other Loan Documents, to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, or vote, consent, operate, or take any other action in connection with any of the Collateral, such Debtor shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) all applications, certificates, assignments and other documents that the Agent requests to facilitate such actions and shall otherwise promptly, fully, and diligently cooperate with the Agent and any other Persons in making any application for the prior consent or approval of any Official Body or any other Person to the exercise by the Agent on behalf of itself and/or the Lenders or any such rights relating to all or any of the Collateral. Furthermore, because each Debtor agrees that the remedies at law, of the Agent on behalf of itself and/or the Lenders, for failure of such Debtor to comply with this Subsection (c) would be inadequate, and that any such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, each Debtor agrees that this Subsection (c) may be specifically enforced.

(d) The Agent may request, without limiting the rights and remedies of the Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders otherwise provided hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, that each Debtor do any of the following: (i) give the Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders specific assignments of the accounts receivable of such Debtor after such accounts receivable come into existence, and schedules of such accounts receivable, the form and content of such assignment and schedules to be satisfactory to Agent; and (ii) in order to better secure the Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders, to the extent permitted by Law, enter into such lockbox agreements and establish such lockbox accounts as the agent may require, all at the sole expense of such Debtor and shall direct all payments from all payors due to such Debtor, to such lockbox accounts.

12. The lien on and security interest in each Debtor’s Collateral granted to and created in favor of the Agent by this Agreement shall be for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and any IRH Provider. Each of the rights, privileges, and remedies provided to the Agent hereunder or otherwise by Law with respect to any Debtor’s Collateral shall be exercised by the Agent only for its own benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, and any of such Debtor’s Collateral or proceeds thereof held or realized upon at any time by the Agent shall be applied as set forth in Section 8.2.5 [Application of Proceeds] of the Credit Agreement. Each Debtor shall remain liable to the Agent and the Lenders and any IRH Provider for and shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of itself and the Lenders and any IRH Provider any deficiency which may remain after such sale or collection.

13. If the Agent repossesses or seeks to repossess any of the Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof because of the occurrence of an Event of Default, then to the extent it is commercially reasonable for the Agent to store any Collateral on any of any Debtor’s premises, each Debtor hereby agrees to lease to the Agent on a month-to-month tenancy for a period not to exceed [ninety (90)] days at the Agent’s election, at a rental of One Dollar ($1.00) per month, the premises on which the Collateral is located, provided it is located on premises owned or leased by such Debtor.

 

- 11 -


14. Upon indefeasible payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the expiration of all Commitments and Letters of Credit, and termination of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, and the Agent shall thereupon promptly return to a Debtor such of the Collateral and such other documents delivered by such Debtor hereunder as may then be in the Agent’s possession, subject to the rights of third parties. Until such time, however, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

15. No failure or delay on the part of the Agent in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege of the Agent hereunder; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No waiver of a single Event of Default shall be deemed a waiver of a subsequent Event of Default. All waivers under this Agreement must be in writing. The rights and remedies of the Agent under this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any rights or remedies which it may otherwise have, and the Agent may enforce any one or more remedies hereunder successively or concurrently at its option.

16. All notices, statements, requests and demands given to or made upon either party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be given or made as provided in Section 10.5 [Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication] of the Credit Agreement.

17. Each Debtor agrees that as of the date hereof, all information contained on the Security Interest Data Schedule attached hereto as Schedule A is accurate and complete and contains no omission or misrepresentation. Each Debtor shall promptly notify the Agent of any changes in the information set forth thereon.

18. Each Debtor acknowledges that the provisions hereof giving the Agent rights of access to books, records and information concerning the Collateral and such Debtor’s operations and providing the Agent access, at reasonable times and upon one (1) day prior notice, to such Debtor’s premises are intended to afford the Agent with immediate access to current information concerning such Debtor and its activities, including, without limitation, the value, nature and location of the Collateral so that the Agent can, among other things, make an appropriate determination after the occurrence of an Event of Default, whether and when to exercise its other remedies hereunder and at Law, including, without limitation, instituting a replevin action should any Debtor refuse to turn over any Collateral to the Agent. Each Debtor further acknowledges that should such Debtor at any time fail to promptly provide such information and access to the Agent, each Debtor acknowledges that the Agent would have no adequate remedy at Law to promptly obtain the same. Each Debtor agrees that the provisions hereof may be specifically enforced by the Agent and waives any claim or defense in any such action or proceeding that the Agent has an adequate remedy at Law.

19. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and each Debtor and each of its respective successors and assigns, except that no debtor may assign or transfer such Debtor’s obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

 

- 12 -


20. This Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of said Commonwealth excluding its rules relating to conflicts of law.

21. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate 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.

22. Each Debtor hereby irrevocably submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any Pennsylvania State or Federal Court sitting in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and Debtors hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Pennsylvania State or Federal court. Each Debtor hereby waives to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding. Each Debtor hereby appoints the process agent identified below (the “Process Agent”) as its agent to receive on behalf of such party and its respective property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any of the Debtors in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s address, and each of the Debtors hereby authorizes and directs the Process Agent to receive such service on its behalf. Each Debtor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions (or any political subdivision thereof) by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Each Debtor further agrees that it shall, for so long as any Commitment or any obligation of any Loan Party to the Lender remains outstanding, continue to retain Process Agent for the purposes set forth in this Section 22. The Process Agent is Corporation Service Company, with an office on the date hereof at 2711 Centerville Road, Suite 400, Wilmington, DE 19808, United States. Each Debtor shall produce to the Agent evidence of the acceptance by Process Agent of such appointment.

23. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, EACH DEBTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY A JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR TRANSACTIONS RELATING THERETO.

24. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument. Each Debtor acknowledges and agrees that a telecopy or other electronic transmission to the Agent or any Lender of the signature pages hereof purporting to be signed on behalf of any Debtor shall constitute effective and binding execution and delivery hereof by such Debtor.

LANDLORD’S WAIVER

THIS LANDLORD’S WAIVER (this “Agreement”) is made as of this          day of                     , 20     by [INSERT LANDLORD’S NAME] (the “Landlord”) to PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (the “Agent”) in its capacity as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (as defined in a certain Credit Agreement by and among UNDER ARMOUR, INC., a Maryland corporation, as the Borrower thereunder, the Guarantors from time to time party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party thereto and the Agent) (the “Credit Agreement”).

WITNESSETH:

[INSERT TENANT’S NAME] (as the “Tenant”) is or may become indebted to the Agent and the Lenders for certain credit facilities (the “Loans”). Pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Loans are or may become secured by security interests and liens in all of the tangible and intangible personal property of the Tenant (collectively, the “Collateral”). Under the provisions of a certain lease (the “Lease”) dated [INSERT DATE OF LEASE] , between the Landlord and the Tenant, the Landlord has leased approximately [INSERT SQUARE FEET] square feet situated on the property described as [INSERT STREET ADDRESS, CITY, STATE POSTAL CODE] (the “Premises”). Since part of the Collateral may be located on or affixed to the Premises, the Agent and the Lenders have required, as a condition to making the Loans, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Landlord.

NOW, THEREFORE, to induce the Agent and the Lenders to make the Loans and other financial accommodations available to the Borrower and the Tenant, the Landlord, intending to be legally bound hereby covenants and agrees with the Agent and the Lenders as follows:

1. The Landlord hereby consents to the security interests and liens of the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns in the Collateral located on, at or about the Premises. This waiver shall apply to any of the Collateral which is already located on, at or about or affixed to the Premises or may hereafter be located on, at or about or affixed to the Premises.

2. The Landlord hereby waives and releases in favor of the Agent and the Lenders and agrees that the Agent’s and the Lenders’ liens and security interests in the Collateral shall be prior and superior to (a) any and all rights of distraint, levy and execution, and marshalling of assets which the Landlord may now or hereafter have against the Collateral, (b) any and all liens and security interests which the Landlord may now or hereafter have on the Collateral, and (c) and any and all other claims of every nature whatsoever which the Landlord may now or hereafter have on or against the Collateral for any rent or other sums due or to become due to the Landlord by the Tenant under the provisions of the Lease or otherwise.

3.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, and in order to facilitate loans and repayments between Settlement Dates, PNC Bank may, at its option, cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever, make swing loans (the “Swing Loans”) to the Borrower at any time or from time to time after the date hereof to, but not including, the Expiration Date, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not in excess of $10,000,000 (the “Swing Loan Commitment”), provided that the Revolving Facility Usage shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.2.

2.2 Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans. Each Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.4 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] in accordance with its Ratable Share. The aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans outstanding hereunder to the Borrower at any time shall never exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letter of Credit Obligations. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrower to any other party, nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans hereunder on or after the Expiration Date.

2.3 Commitment Fees. Accruing from the date hereof until the Expiration Date or the Term Loan Draw Expiration Date, as applicable, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars for the account of each Lender according to its Ratable Share, a nonrefundable commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to: (i) in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) times the average daily difference between the amount of (A) the Revolving Credit Commitments (for purposes of this computation, PNC Bank’s Swing Loans shall be deemed to be borrowed amounts under its Revolving Credit Commitment, but only to the extent any Swing Loans are then outstanding) and (B) the Revolving Facility Usage; and (ii) in the case of Term Loan Commitments, 0.25% per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) times the Term Loan Commitments for each day after the Closing Date until the earlier of (A) the date upon which the Term Loans are made or (B) the Term Loan Draw Expiration Date; provided, however, that any Commitment Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such Commitment Fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided further that no Commitment Fee shall accrue with respect to the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Subject to the proviso in the directly preceding sentence, all Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date.

2.4 Increase in Commitments.

(i) Increasing Lenders. Provided no Event of Default or Potential Default shall have occurred and be continuing beyond any applicable grace or cure period, the Borrower may, at any time after the Closing Date, request that the current Lenders increase their Commitments by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent (the “Requested Increase”). Each Lender shall have the right at any time within the fifteen (15) day period following receipt by the Agent of such written request to increase its Commitment by its Ratable Share of the Requested Increase (any current Lender which elects to increase its Commitment shall be referred to as an “Increasing Lender”). If Lenders elect to increase their Commitment within the 15-day period specified in the preceding sentence but such increases, in the aggregate, do not equal the Requested Increase, then the Administrative Agent shall, immediately after the expiration of such period, send written notice to the Increasing Lenders. Each Increasing Lender

 

- 28 -


shall have the right to increase its Commitment by all or any part of the balance of the Requested Increase. In the event there are two or more such Increasing Lenders that choose to so increase their Commitment, the balance of the Requested Increase shall be allocated to such Increasing Lenders pro rata based on their Ratable Share.

(ii) New Lenders. If there is a balance of the Requested Increase remaining after completion of the process set forth in Section 2.4(i) above, one or more new lenders (each a “New Lender”) shall have the right to join this Agreement and provide a Commitment hereunder.

(iii) Terms and Conditions Any increases by Increasing Lenders or new Commitments by New Lenders, as applicable, are subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) No Obligation to Increase. No current Lender shall be obligated to increase its Commitment and any increase in the Commitment by any current Lender shall be in the sole discretion of such current Lender.

(f) Notes. The Borrower shall execute and deliver (1) to each Increasing Lender a replacement Note reflecting the new amount of such Increasing Lender’s Commitment after giving effect to the increase (and the prior Note issued to such Increasing Lender shall be deemed to be terminated and the original thereof shall be returned by such Increasing Lender to the Borrower) and (2) to each New Lender a Note reflecting the amount of such New Lender’s Commitment.

(g) Approval of New Lenders. Any New Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

Each New Lender shall execute a lender joinder in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.4 pursuant to which such New Lender shall join and become a party as a “Lender” to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with a Commitment in the amount set forth in such lender joinder.

(iv) Treatment of Outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit.

(a) Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans. On the effective date of such increase, the Borrower shall repay all Loans then outstanding, subject to the Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Section 4.12 [Indemnity]; provided that it may borrow new Loans to satisfy in full all Loans outstanding with such new Loans having a Borrowing Date on such date. Each of the Lenders shall participate in any new Loans made on or after such date in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares after giving effect to the increase in Commitments contemplated by this Section 2.4.

(b) Outstanding Letters of Credit; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans.

2.6 Making Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent; Repayment of Revolving Credit Loans; Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans.

2.6.1 Making Revolving Credit Loans. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying the information provided by the Borrower and the apportionment among the Lenders of the requested Revolving Credit Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 6.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars (or, if applicable, the Optional Currency) and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m., on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 2.6.2 [Presumptions by the Administrative Agent].

2.6.2 Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Loan that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.6.1 [Making Revolving Credit Loans] and Section 2.19

 

- 31 -


[Making Term Loans] and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

2.6.3 Making Swing Loans.

So long as PNC Bank elects to make Swing Loans, PNC Bank shall, after receipt by it of a Swing Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5.2, fund such Swing Loan to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. on the Borrowing Date.

2.6.4 Repayment of Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower shall repay the Revolving Credit Loans together with all outstanding interest thereon on the Expiration Date.

2.6.5 Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans.

PNC Bank may, at its option, exercisable at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if PNC Bank so requests, accrued interest thereon, provided that no Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in excess of its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its Ratable Share of Letter of Credit Obligations. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.5.1 without regard to any of the requirements of that provision. PNC Bank shall provide notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile or telex) that such Revolving Credit Loans are to be made under this Section 2.6.5 and of the apportionment among the Lenders, and the Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.5.1 are then satisfied) by the time PNC Bank so requests, which shall not be earlier than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day next after the date the Lenders receive such notice from PNC Bank.

2.7 Notes. The Obligation of the Borrower to repay the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and Term Loans made to it by each Lender, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a revolving credit Note and a swing Note, dated the Closing Date, and a term Note, to be dated the date such term Note is issued, payable to the order of such Lender in a face amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment, Swing Loan Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, of such Lender.

 

- 32 -


2.8 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used to pay the fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement (unless paid in cash by the Borrower), to finance the Borrower’s working capital and for other general corporate purposes, and to implement the Tide Point Transaction and for the acquisition and financing of the Tide Point Property.

2.9 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

2.9.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. Borrower may at any time prior to the Expiration Date request the issuance of a trade, commercial or standby letter of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) on behalf of itself or another Loan Party, or the amendment or extension of an existing Letter of Credit, by delivering or having such other Loan Party deliver to the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a completed application and agreement for a Letter of Credit, or request for such amendment or extension, as applicable, in such form as the Issuing Lender may specify from time to time by no later than 10:00 a.m. at least five (5) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit application, the Issuing Lender shall confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit application and if not, such Issuing Lender will provide Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuing Lender has received notice from any Lender, Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one (1) day prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions in Section 6 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] is not satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.9, the Issuing Lender or any of the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates will issue a Letter of Credit or agree to such amendment or extension; provided that each Letter of Credit shall (A) be issued in U.S. Dollars, (B) provide for the payment of sight drafts, other written demands for payment, or acceptances of usance drafts when presented for honor thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described therein, (C) have an expiry date not later than (a) twelve (12) months after such Letter of Credit’s date of issuance and (b) in no event later than the Expiration Date, and (D) with respect to each Letter of Credit that is a trade or commercial Letter of Credit, all time usance drafts drawn under such trade or commercial Letter of Credit must have a maturity date that is not later than the Expiration Date; and provided further that in no event shall (i) the Letter of Credit Obligations exceed, at any one time, $5,000,000 (the “Letter of Credit Sublimit”) or (ii) the Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments. With respect to trade or commercial Letters of Credit, the Borrower shall pay, in lieu of the fronting fee due to the Issuing Lender with respect to standby Letters of Credit, fees to be negotiated between the Borrower and the Issuing Lender. Each request by the Borrower for the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that it shall be in compliance with the preceding sentence and with Section 6 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will also deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

 

- 33 -


2.9.2 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate, and (ii) to the Issuing Lender for its own account either a negotiated fee for trade or commercial Letters of Credit, or, with respect to standby Letters of Credit, a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum (in each case computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the daily average Letter of Credit Obligations and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date following issuance of each Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall also pay to the Issuing Lender for the Issuing Lender’s sole account the Issuing Lender’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as the Issuing Lender may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, amendment (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit.

2.9.3 Disbursements, Reimbursement. Immediately upon the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.

2.9.3.1 In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Borrower shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the Issuing Lender prior to 12:00 noon on each date that an amount is paid by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) by paying to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender an amount equal to the amount so paid by the Issuing Lender. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent) for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon on the Drawing Date, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made by the Lenders under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements. Any notice given by the Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.9.3.1 may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

2.9.3.2 Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.9.3.1 make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender an amount in immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.9.3 [Disbursements; Reimbursement]) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue

 

- 34 -


on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under the Revolving Credit Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender will promptly give notice (as described in Section 2.9.3.1 above) of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this Section 2.9.3.2.

2.9.3.3 With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.9.3.1, because of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements, or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Issuing Lender a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in the amount of such drawing. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.9.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement] shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing (each a “Participation Advance”) from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.9.3.

2.9.4 Repayment of Participation Advances.

2.9.4.1 Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a Participation Advance to the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the Issuing Lender under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Issuing Lender will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the Administrative Agent shall retain for the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by the Issuing Lender.

2.9.4.2 If the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of any payment made by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, forthwith return to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time.

 

- 35 -


2.9.5 Documentation. Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of the Issuing Lender’s application and agreement for letters of credit and the Issuing Lender’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In the event of a conflict between such application or agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

2.9.6 Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests. In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

2.9.7 Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations.

2.9.9 Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between any Loan Party and the Issuing Lender, or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for any of the following, including any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates, as applicable, including any act or omission of any Official Body, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Issuing Lender’s or its Affiliates rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Issuing Lender from liability for the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender and each of its Affiliates: (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Issuing Lender or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit; (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit (unless such dishonor was pursuant to a court order), to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Issuing Lender or its Affiliate; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement

 

- 38 -


advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Issuing Lender or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender.

2.9.10 Issuing Lender Reporting Requirements. Each Issuing Lender shall, on the first Business Day of each month, provide to Administrative Agent and Borrower a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, showing the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, the account party, the original face amount (if any), and the expiration date of any Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during the preceding month, and any other information relating to such Letter of Credit that the Administrative Agent may request.

2.10 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(i) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.3 [Commitment Fees];

(ii) the Commitment and outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers]); provided, that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby;

(iii) if any Swing Loans are outstanding or any Letter of Credit Obligations exist at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

(a) all or any part of the outstanding Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares but only to the extent that (x) the Revolving Facility Usage does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving

 

- 39 -


Credit Commitments, and (y) no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time;

(b) if the reallocation described in clause (a) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such outstanding Swing Loans, and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lender the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (a) above) in a deposit account held at the Administrative Agent for so long as such Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding;

(c) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to clause (b) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.9.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations are cash collateralized;

(d) if the Letter of Credit Obligations of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (a) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.9.2 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Ratable Share; and

(e) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations are neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit Fees payable under Section 2.9.2 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Lender (and not to such Defaulting Lender) until and to the extent that such Letter of Credit Obligations are reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(iv) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, PNC Bank shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Lender is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations will be one hundred percent (100%) covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.10(iii), and participating interests in any newly made Swing Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.10(iii)(a) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a parent company of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue, or (ii) PNC Bank or the Issuing Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, PNC Bank shall not be required to fund any Swing Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless PNC Bank or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to PNC Bank or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

 

- 40 -


In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, PNC Bank and the Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, and the Ratable Share of the Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Ratable Share.

All of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10 shall be subject to the right of the Borrower to replace any Defaulting Lender with another lender in accordance with Section 4.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender].

2.11 Utilization of Commitments in the Optional Currency.

2.11.1 Periodic Computations of Dollar Equivalent Amounts of Revolving Credit Loans. The Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount of (i) proposed Revolving Credit Loans to be denominated in an Optional Currency as of the requested Borrowing Date or date of issuance, as the case may be, and (ii) outstanding Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Optional Currency as of the end of each Interest Period (each such date under clauses (i) and (ii), a “Computation Date”).

2.11.2 Notice From Lenders That Optional Currency is Unavailable to Fund New Loans. The Lenders shall be under no obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans requested by the Borrower which are denominated in an Optional Currency if any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent by 5:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Revolving Credit Loans that such Lender cannot provide its share of such Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency. In the event the Administrative Agent timely receives a notice from a Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon two (2) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Revolving Credit Loans that the Optional Currency is not then available for such Revolving Credit Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of the same. If the Borrower receives a notice described in the preceding sentence, the Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the Borrowing Date for such Revolving Credit Loans, withdraw the Loan Request for such Revolving Credit Loans. If the Borrower withdraws such Loan Request, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the same and the Lenders shall not make such Revolving Credit Loans. If the Borrower does not withdraw such Loan Request before such time, (i) the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that the Revolving Credit Loans referred to in its Loan Request shall be made in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Revolving Credit Loans and shall bear interest under the Base Rate Option, and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a notice to each Lender stating: (A) that such Revolving Credit Loans shall be made in Dollars and shall bear interest under the Base Rate Option; (B) the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans; and (C) such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Revolving Credit Loans.

 

- 41 -


2.11.3 Notices from Lenders That an Optional Currency is Unavailable to Fund Renewals of the LIBOR Rate Option. If the Borrower delivers a Loan Request requesting that the Lenders renew the LIBOR Rate Option with respect to an outstanding Borrowing Tranche of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Optional Currency, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to renew such LIBOR Rate Option if any Lender delivers to the Administrative Agent a notice by 5:00 p.m. four (4) Business Days prior to effective date of such renewal that such Lender cannot continue to provide Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency. In the event the Administrative Agent timely receives a notice from a Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower promptly, but no later than 12:00 noon three (3) Business Days prior to the renewal date that the renewal of such Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency is not then available, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of the same. If the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower that any such continuation of Optional Currency Loans is not then available, any notice of renewal with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn, and such Optional Currency Loans shall be redenominated into the Base Rate Option in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Optional Currency Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any such redenomination, and in such notice, the Administrative Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Optional Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Lender’s Ratable Share thereof.

2.12 Currency Repayments. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the entire amount of principal of and interest on any Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be repaid in the same Optional Currency in which such Loan was made; provided, however, that if it is impossible or illegal for the Borrower to effect payment of a Loan in the Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, or if the Borrower defaults in its obligations to do so, the Required Lenders may at their option permit such payment to be made (i) at and to a different location, subsidiary, affiliate or correspondent of Administrative Agent, or (ii) in the Equivalent Amount of Dollars or (iii) in an Equivalent Amount of such other currency (freely convertible into Dollars) as the Required Lenders may solely at their option designate. Upon any events described in (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Borrower shall make such payment and the Borrower agrees to hold each Lender harmless from and against any loss incurred by any Lender arising from the cost to such Lender of any premium, any costs of exchange, the cost of hedging and covering the Optional Currency in which such Loan was originally made, and from any change in the value of Dollars, or such other currency, in relation to the Optional Currency that was due and owing. Such loss shall be calculated for the period commencing with the first day of the Interest Period for such Loan and continuing through the date of payment thereof. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the hereunder, the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.12 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.13 Optional Currency Amounts. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, with respect to notices by the Borrower for Revolving Credit Loans in an Optional Currency or voluntary prepayments of less than the full amount of an Optional Currency Borrowing Tranche, engage in reasonable rounding of the Optional

 

- 42 -


Currency amounts requested to be loaned or repaid, and the Borrower’s request or notice shall thereby be deemed to reflect such rounded amounts.

2.14 Requests for Additional Optional Currencies. The Borrower may deliver to the Administrative Agent a written request that Revolving Credit Loans hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified in the definition of “Optional Currency” herein, provided that such currency must be freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets, freely transferable, freely convertible into Dollars and available to the Lenders in the applicable interbank market. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such request promptly after the Administrative Agent receives such request. The Administrative Agent and each Lender may grant or accept such request in their sole discretion. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the acceptance or rejection by the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders of the Borrower’s request. The requested currency shall be approved as an Optional Currency hereunder only if the Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders approve of the Borrower’s request.

2.15 Currency Fluctuations. If on any Computation Date, the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage is equal to or greater than the Revolving Credit Commitments as a result of a change in exchange rates between one (1) or more Optional Currencies and Dollars, then the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the same. The Borrower shall pay or prepay within one (1) Business Day after receiving such notice that portion of the Revolving Credit Loans (subject to Borrower’s indemnity obligations hereunder) necessary to cause the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Credit Loans to be less than the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to such payments or prepayments.

2.16 Term Loan Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender severally agrees to make a term loan (the “Term Loan”) to the Borrower on the Closing Date in such principal amount as the Borrower shall request up to, but not exceeding such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment.

2.17 Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Term Loans; Repayment Terms. The obligations of each Lender to make Term Loans to the Borrower shall be in the proportion that such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment bears to the Term Loan Commitments of all Lenders to the Borrower, but each Lender’s Term Loan to the Borrower shall never exceed its Term Loan Commitment. The failure of any Lender to make a Term Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make a Term Loan nor shall it impose any additional liability on any other Lender hereunder. If no Term Loans are drawn prior to the Term Loan Draw Expiration Date, the Lenders shall have no obligation to make Term Loans hereunder. The Term Loan Commitments are not revolving credit commitments, and the Borrower shall not have the right to borrow, repay and reborrow under Section 2.16 [Term Loan Commitments].

2.18 Term Loan Request. Until the Term Loan Draw Expiration Date, the Borrower may make one (1) request that the Lenders make Term Loans by delivering to the Administrative Agent, not later than 10:00 a.m., (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Term Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies, or (ii)

 

- 43 -


on the Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Term Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, a duly completed Loan Request, it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. The Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the aggregate amount of the proposed Term Loans and, if applicable, the Interest Period.

2.19 Making Term Loans; Repayment of Term Loans.

2.19.1 Making Term Loans. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.18 [Term Loan Request], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying the information provided by the Borrower and the apportionment among the Lenders of the requested Term Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.17 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Term Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Term Loan to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 6.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Term Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m., on the Borrowing Date; provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Term Loan of such Lender, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 2.6.2 [Presumptions by the Administrative Agent].

2.19.2 Repayment of Term Loans. All accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans as of each Payment Date shall be payable on such Payment Date. The outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans shall be payable on the Expiration Date.

3. INTEREST RATES

3.1 Interest Rate Options. The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than six (6) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans; provided further that if an Event of Default or Potential Default exists and is continuing beyond any applicable cure period, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans and the Required Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any indemnity under Section 4.12 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be paid by the Borrower in such Optional Currency.

 

- 44 -


3.1.1 Revolving Credit Interest Rate Options; Swing Line Interest Rate. The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans (except that no Loan to which a Base Rate shall apply may be made in an Optional Currency):

(i) Revolving Credit Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (provided, that for Loans made in an Optional Currency for which a 365-day basis is the only market practice available to the Administrative Agent, such rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days for the actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or

(ii) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Option: A rate per annum computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (provided, that for Loans made in an Optional Currency for which a 365-day basis is the only market practice available to the Administrative Agent, such rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days for the actual days elapsed) equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

Subject to Section 3.3, only the Base Rate Option applicable to Revolving Credit Loans shall apply to the Swing Loans.

3.1.2 Term Loan Interest Rate Options. The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Term Loans:

(i) Term Loan Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum computed on the basis of a year of 360 and actual days elapsed equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or

(ii) Term Loan LIBOR Rate Option: A rate per annum computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

3.1.3 Rate Quotations. The Borrower may call the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates and the applicable currency exchange rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made.

3.2 Interest Periods. At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof at least four (4) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Interest Rate Option, with respect to an Optional Currency Loan, and at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such LIBOR Rate Option with respect to a Dollar Loan, by delivering a Loan Request. The notice shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a LIBOR Rate Option:

 

- 45 -


3.2.1 Amount of Borrowing Tranche. The Dollar Equivalent amount of each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be in integral multiples of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000; and

3.2.2 Renewals. In the case of the renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day. For the elimination of any doubt, in the case of the renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, interest shall be deemed to accrue for the last day of the preceding Interest Period only, and shall not be deemed to accrue for the first day of the new Interest Period.

3.3 Interest After Default. To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived:

3.3.1 Letter of Credit Fees, Interest Rate. The Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.9.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] or Section 3.1 [Interest Rate Options], respectively, shall be increased by 2.0% per annum;

3.3.2 Other Obligations. Each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Revolving Credit Base Rate Option plus an additional 2.0% per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is paid in full; and

3.3.3 Acknowledgment. The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 3.3 reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by Borrower upon demand by Administrative Agent.

3.4 LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

3.4.1 Unascertainable. If on any date on which a LIBOR Rate would otherwise be determined, the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such LIBOR Rate, or

(ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the LIBOR Rate,

then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

3.4.2 Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. If at any time any Lender shall have reasonably determined that:

(i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or

 

- 46 -


(ii) such LIBOR Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or

(iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars or in the Optional Currency (as applicable) for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,

then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

3.4.3 Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights. In the case of any event specified in Section 3.4.1 [Unascertainable] above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option or select an Optional Currency (as applicable) shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under Section 3.4.1 [Unascertainable] and the Borrower has previously notified the Administrative Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under Section 3.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 4.12 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 4.6 [Voluntary Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date.

3.5 Selection of Interest Rate Options. If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period or Optional Currency to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2 [Interest Periods], the Borrower shall be deemed to have continued such Borrowing Tranche at the same Optional Currency for an Interest Period of the same duration, as applicable, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period.

4. PAYMENTS

 

- 47 -


4.1 Payments. All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Administrative Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of PNC Bank with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans in U.S. Dollars, except that payments of principal or interest shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made, and in immediately available funds, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately available funds; provided that in the event payments are received by 11:00 a.m. by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Lenders on the same day received by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay the Lenders the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to the amount of such payments due in Dollars, or the Overnight Rate in the case of Loans or other amounts due in an Optional Currency, with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by the Administrative Agent and not distributed to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement (including the Equivalent Amounts of the applicable currencies where such computations are required) and shall be deemed an “account stated.”

4.2 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders. Each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans shall be allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion of or renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, or other fees (except as otherwise may be provided with respect to a Defaulting Lender and except for the Administrative Agent’s Fee) or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect to the Loans, shall (except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Etc.] or 4.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or 4.10 [Increased Costs]) be made in proportion to the applicable Loans outstanding from each Lender and, if no such Loans are then outstanding, in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Lender. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each borrowing or payment or prepayment by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrower with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to PNC Bank according to Section 2.6.5.

4.3 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien, by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon security, or by any other non-pro rata source, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Ratable Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all

 

- 48 -


such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law (including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section 4.3 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Loan Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or Participation Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 4.3 shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

4.4 Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

4.5 Interest Payment Dates. Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date. Interest on Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in the currency in which such Loan was made on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) Months, also on the 90th day of such Interest Period. Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 4.7 [Mandatory Prepayments] shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated Expiration Date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

 

- 49 -


4.6 Voluntary Prepayments.

4.6.1 Right to Prepay. The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in the currency in which such Loan was made in whole or part without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 4.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] below, in Section 4.10 [Increased Costs] and Section 4.12 [Indemnity]). Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans, it shall provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans or no later than 12:00 noon on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans, setting forth the following information:

(w) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made;

(x) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans and Swing Loans;

(y) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies and Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies; and

(z) the total principal amount of such prepayment and the currency of such payment, which shall not be less than $100,000 for any Swing Loan or $500,000 for any Revolving Credit Loan.

All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable. The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount except with respect to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. All Term Loan prepayments permitted pursuant to this Section 4.6.1 [Right to Prepay] shall be applied to the unpaid installments of principal of the Term Loans in the inverse order of scheduled maturities. Except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], if the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrower is prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied (i) first to Revolving Credit Loans and then to Term Loans; and (ii) after giving effect to the allocations in clause (i) above and in the preceding sentence, first to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies, and then to the Optional Currency Loans. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 4.12 [Indemnity].

4.6.2 Replacement of a Lender. In the event (a) PNC Bank resigns as Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.6 [Resignation of Administrative Agent] or (b) any Lender (i) gives notice under Section 3.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable, Etc.], (ii) requests compensation under Section 4.10 [Increased Costs], or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.11 [Taxes], (iii) is a Defaulting Lender or otherwise, (iv) becomes subject to the control of an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision), or (v) is a Non-Consenting Lender referred to in Section 10.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers] then in any such event the Borrower may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in

 

- 50 -


accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.8 [Successors and Assigns]), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.8 [Successors and Assigns];

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and Participation Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 4.12 [Indemnity]) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.10.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.11 [Taxes], such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law.

Except in the case of an assignment required by Section 9.6 [Resignation of Administrative Agent], a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

4.7 Mandatory Prepayments.

4.7.1 Sale of Tide Point Property. Within five (5) Business Days of any sale of all or substantially all of the Tide Point Property, the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of principal on the Term Loans equal to the net (i.e., after-taxes, payoff of financing, and other closing costs) proceeds of such sale (as estimated in good faith by the Borrower), together with accrued interest on such principal amount. Any prepayment pursuant to this Section 4.7.1 shall be applied to payment of the principal amount of the Term Loans by application to the unpaid installments of principal in the inverse order of scheduled maturities.

4.7.2 Application Among Interest Rate Options. All prepayments required pursuant to Section 4.7 shall first be applied among the Interest Rate Options to the principal amount of the Loans subject to the Base Rate Option, then to Loans subject to a LIBOR Rate Option. In accordance with Section 4.12 [Indemnity], the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against Loans subject to a LIBOR Rate Option on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period.

4.8 Receipt and Application of Payment. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing beyond any applicable grace or cure period, and upon three (3) Business Days prior written notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall notify all Account Receivable Debtors to make all payments due from them to the Borrower directly to a lockbox for collection pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement (the “Cash Collateral Account”). In

 

- 51 -


the event the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, Administrative Agents or those Person acting for or in concert with the Borrower) shall receive any cash, checks, notes, drafts or other similar items of payment relating to or constituting the Collateral (or proceeds thereof), no later than the first Business Day following receipt thereof, the Borrower shall (i) deposit or cause the same to be deposited, in kind, in the Cash Collateral Account established by the Borrower with the Administrative Agent or such other depository as may be designated in writing by the Administrative Agent (the “Depository”), from which account the Administrative Agent alone shall have sole power of withdrawal, and with respect to which the Depository shall waive any rights of set off, and (ii) forward to the Administrative Agent on a daily basis, a collection report in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and, at the Administrative Agent’s request, copies of all such items and deposit slips related thereto. All cash, notes, checks, drafts or similar items of payment by or for the account of the Borrower shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Lenders immediately upon the earlier of the receipt of such items by the Administrative Agent or the Depository or the receipt of such items by the Borrower; provided, however, that for the purpose of computing interest hereunder such items shall be deemed to have been collected and shall be applied by the Administrative Agent on account of the Loans one (1) Business Day after receipt by the Administrative Agent (subject to correction for any items subsequently dishonored for any reason whatsoever). All funds in the Cash Collateral Account, including all payments made by or on behalf of and all credits due the Borrower, may be applied and reapplied in whole or in part to any of the Loans to the extent and in the manner the Administrative Agent deems advisable.

4.9 Collections; Administrative Agent’s Right to Notify Account Receivable Debtors. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, now and at any time or times hereafter, to (i) after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default and beyond any applicable grace or cure period, notify any or all Account Receivable Debtors that the Accounts Receivable have been assigned to the Lenders and that the Lenders have a security interest therein, and (ii) direct such Account Receivable Debtors to make all payments due from them to the Borrower upon the Accounts Receivable directly to the Administrative Agent or to a lockbox designated by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly furnish the Borrower with a copy of any such notice sent. Any such notice, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, may be sent on the Borrower’s stationery, in which event the Borrower shall co-sign such notice with the Administrative Agent. To the extent that any Law or custom or any contract or agreement with any Account Receivable Debtor requires notice to or the approval of the Account Receivable Debtor in order to perfect such assignment of a security interest in Accounts Receivable, the Borrower agrees to give such notice or use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such approval.

4.10 Increased Costs.

4.10.1 Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate) or the Issuing Lender;

 

- 52 -


(ii) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 4.11 [Taxes] and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) in each case, in an amount deemed to be material by such Lender or Issuing Lender, then, upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

4.10.2 Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), in each case, in an amount deemed to be material by such Lender or Issuing Lender, then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

4.10.3 Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans. A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender reasonably setting forth in sufficient detail for calculation the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 4.10.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or 4.10.2 [Capital Requirements] and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. In determining such amounts, a Lender or Issuing Lender may use reasonable averaging or attribution methods. The Borrower shall pay

 

- 53 -


such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

4.10.4 Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

4.11 Taxes.

4.11.1 Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required by applicable Law to deduct or withhold any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives a net payment equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and withholdings and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall apply regardless of whether the Indemnified Taxes or other Taxes are an obligation of any Borrower or of any Lender.

4.11.2 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of Section 4.11.1 [Payments Free of Taxes] above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law.

4.11.3 Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability and reasonably describing the basis for such determination delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

- 54 -


4.11.4 Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to an Official Body, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

4.11.5 Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the Law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a duplicate original or copy as requested by the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding the submission of such documentation claiming a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under § 1.1441-7(b) of the United States Income Tax Regulations. Further, the Administrative Agent is indemnified under § 1.1461-1(e) of the United States Income Tax Regulations against any claims and demands of any Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under § 1441 of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of originals or copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) two (2) duly completed valid originals of IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

(ii) two (2) duly completed valid originals of IRS Form W-8ECI,

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) two (2) duly completed valid originals of IRS Form W-8BEN,

 

- 55 -


(iv) any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, or

(v) to the extent that any Lender is not a Foreign Lender, such Lender shall submit to the Administrative Agent two (2) valid originals of an IRS Form W-9 or any other form prescribed by applicable Law demonstrating that such Lender is not a Foreign Lender.

4.12 Indemnity. In addition to the compensation or payments required by Section 4.10 [Increased Costs] or Section 4.11 [Taxes], the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against all liabilities, losses or expenses (including loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of any:

(i) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due),

(ii) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Requests under Section 2.4 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] or Section 3.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.6 [Voluntary Prepayments], or

(iii) default by the Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrower to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Commitment Fee or any other amount due hereunder.

If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

4.13 Settlement Date Procedures. In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Loans and PNC Bank may make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.1.2 hereof during the period between Settlement Dates. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on each Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of its Ratable Share of the total of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swing Loans (each a “Required Share”). Prior to 2:00 p.m. on such Settlement Date, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent the amount equal to the difference between its Required Share and its Revolving Credit Loans, and the Administrative

 

- 56 -


Agent shall pay to each Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans. The Administrative Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Revolving Credit Loans and on dates of repayment pursuant to Section 4.7 [Mandatory Prepayments] and may at its option effect settlement on any other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of administrative convenience, and nothing contained in this Section 4.13 shall relieve the Lender of their obligations to fund Revolving Credit Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date pursuant to Section 2.1.2. The Administrative Agent may at any time at its option for any reason whatsoever require each Lender to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and each Lender may at any time require the Administrative Agent to pay immediately to such Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans.

4.14 Judgment Currency.

4.14.1 Currency Conversion Procedures for Judgments. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under a Note in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties hereby agree, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures each Lender could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency after any premium and costs of exchange on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

4.14.2 Indemnity in Certain Events. The obligation of Borrower in respect of any sum due from Borrower to any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in an Other Currency, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by any Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency, such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency. If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender in the Original Currency, Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment or payment, to indemnify such Lender against such loss.

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints PNC Bank to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 8.2.5 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

9.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law; and

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers] and 8.2 [Consequences of Event of Default]) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Potential Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Potential Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or the Issuing Lender.

 

- 75 -


The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 6 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

9.5 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 8.2.5 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

9.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with approval from the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a

 

- 76 -


successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 9.6. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 8.2.5 and Section 10.3 [Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver] shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

If PNC Bank resigns as Administrative Agent under this Section 9.6, PNC Bank shall also resign as an Issuing Lender, subject to PNC Bank’s satisfaction of the requirements of Section 4.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender], for which Borrower is deemed to have provided such notice hereby.] Upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall (i) succeed to all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of PNC Bank as the retiring Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent and PNC Bank shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations as Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and (ii) issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit issued by PNC Bank, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to PNC Bank to effectively assume the obligations of PNC Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

9.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each of the Lender and the Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

10.3.4 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.

10.8.2 Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in clause (i)(A) of this Section 10.8.2, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of, as applicable, (i) the Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) the Term Loan Commitment, or (iii) the aggregate of the Revolving Credit Commitment and the Term Loan Commitment of the assigning Lender, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents, with such consent to deemed to be given if not received within ten (10) Business Days after it is sought.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except for the consent of the Administrative Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

 

- 83 -


(B) the consent of the Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).

(iv) Assignment and Assumption Agreement. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire provided by the Administrative Agent.

(v) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.8.3 [Register], from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], 4.10 [Increased Costs] and 10.3 [Expenses, Indemnity; Damage Waiver] with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.8.2 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.8.4 [Participations].

10.8.3 Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a record of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time. Such register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is in such register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Such register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

10.8.4 Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender

 

- 84 -


shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Issuing Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to Sections 10.1.1 [Increase of Commitment], 10.1.2 [Extension of Payment], or 10.1.3 [Release of Collateral or Guarantor].

To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.2.3 [Setoff] as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.3 [Sharing of Payments by Lenders] as though it were a Lender.

A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.10 [Increased Costs], 4.11 [Taxes] or 10.3 [Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver] than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.11 [Taxes] unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 4.11.5 [Status of Lenders] as though it were a Lender.

10.8.6 Certain Pledges; Successors and Assigns Generally. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

10.9.2 Sharing Information With Affiliates of the Lenders. Each Loan Party acknowledges that from time to time financial advisory and other services may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement by any Lender or by one or more Subsidiaries or Affiliates of such Lender and each of the Loan Parties hereby authorizes each Lender to share for such purpose any information delivered to such Lender by such Loan Party and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement to any such Subsidiary or Affiliate subject to the provisions of Section 10.9.1 [General].

10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof including any prior confidentiality agreements and commitments. Except as provided in Section 6 [Conditions Of Lending And Issuance Of Letters Of Credit], this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.

For purposes of determining the Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate:

(a) The Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate to be determined on the Closing Date shall be based on the Leverage Ratio computed on such date pursuant to a Compliance Certificate to be delivered on the Closing Date.

(b) The Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate shall be recomputed as of the end of each fiscal quarter ending after the Closing Date based on the Leverage Ratio as of such quarter end. Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate or the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate computed as of a quarter end shall be effective on the date on which the Compliance Certificate evidencing such computation is due to be delivered under Section 7.3.3 [Certificate of


the Borrower], except that any such increase or decrease relating to outstanding Borrowing Tranches of Loans in an Optional Currency shall be effective upon the expiration of the current Interest Period with respect to such Borrowing Tranches.

(c) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, under Section 2.9 [Letter of Credit Subfacility] or 3.3 [Interest After Default] or 8 [Default]. The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

For example, (i) a reference to “Article 9 of the UCC” shall mean and include Title 9 of the Commercial Law Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland, and/or Title 8.9A of the Code of Virginia, as applicable, and (ii) a reference to “Section 9-102 of the UCC” shall mean and include Md. Code Ann., Com. Law § 9-102, and/or Va. Code Ann. § 8.9A-102, as applicable.

6. All necessary corporate or limited liability company action, as applicable, has been taken to authorize the execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Borrower and each of the Guarantors (other than UA Florida) with respect to the respective Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

7. The Transaction Documents, exclusive of the Term Notes, constitute the valid and binding obligations of the Borrower and each of the Guarantors to which such entity is a party, enforceable against the Borrower and each of the Guarantors in accordance with their respective terms. Assuming the Term Notes will be duly executed and delivered by an authorized officer of the Borrower, and assuming no action has been taken and no event has occurred since the date hereof which would limit or impair the valid and binding nature, or the enforceability, of the Term Notes, each of the Term Notes shall, at the time of such execution and delivery, constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its respective terms.

  (iii) to our knowledge (and without having ordered or reviewed any judgment, lien or other searches, either in the public domain or of the Borrower or its properties) and relying on the UA Officer’s Certificate, conflict with or result in a material breach or default under any judgment, order, writ or decree of any court or governmental authority binding on the Borrower or to which the Borrower is subject and which is of specific application to the Borrower.

9. To our knowledge, no consent, approval, authorization, or other action by, or filing with, any governmental authority is required for the execution and delivery by the Borrower and each of the Guarantors (other than UA Florida) of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or, if required, the requisite consent, approval, or authorization has been obtained, the requisite filing has been accomplished, or the requisite action has been taken.

10. The Transaction Documents, exclusive of the Pledge Agreement, are effective to create in favor of the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, as security for the obligations under such Transaction Documents, a security interest (the “ Article 9 Security Interest ”) in the Collateral described in such Transaction Documents in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Maryland UCC (the “ Article 9 Collateral ”).

11. Upon the filing of the Collateral Financing Statements (as defined in Schedule III) with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation (“ SDAT ”) for the Borrower and the Guarantors listed in Paragraphs (1) through (37) of Schedule II and with the Virginia State Corporation Commission for UA Virginia, the Article 9 Security Interest in that portion of the Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the UCC (other than any security interest in any Article 9 Collateral of UA Florida) will be perfected.

12. We have reviewed Chapter 679 of the 2010 Florida Statutes as published by the Florida Legislature (“ Article 9 of the Florida UCC ”) and have relied solely upon this review in forming the opinion set forth in this paragraph. Upon the filing of the Collateral Financing Statements (as defined in Schedule III) with the Florida Secured Transaction Registry for UA Florida, the Article 9 Security Interest in that portion of the Article 9 Collateral of UA Florida in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under Article 9 of the Florida UCC will be perfected.

13. The Pledge Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, as security for the obligations under the Pledge Agreement, a security interest in the Pledged Collateral in which a security interest may be created under the Maryland UCC.

14. Upon the delivery in the State of Maryland to the Administrative Agent of the Pledged Stock and the related stock powers pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and assuming that the Administrative Agent had no notice of an adverse claim (within the meaning of Section 8-105 of the Maryland UCC) with respect to the Pledged Stock at the time the Pledged Stock is

delivered to the Administrative Agent, the security interest in the Pledged Stock created in favor of the Administrative Agent under the Pledge Agreement will constitute a perfected security interest in the Pledged Stock, free of any “adverse claim” (as defined in Section 8-102 of the Maryland UCC).

15. Upon the filing of the Pledged Collateral Financing Statements (as defined in Schedule III) with SDAT, the security interest in that portion of the Pledged Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the Maryland UCC will be perfected.

16. To our knowledge, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or to the actual knowledge of Borrower or any Guarantor, threatened in writing, against the Borrower or any Guarantor, which individually or in the aggregate may reasonably be expected to result in any Material Adverse Change, except for the matters described on Schedule 5.1.5 of the Agreement.

 

V. Qualifications

In addition to the other matters set forth in this letter, the opinions set forth herein are also subject to the following qualifications:

(i) Our opinion in Paragraph IV.7 regarding enforceability is subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, marshalling, and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

(ii) Our opinion in Paragraph IV.7 regarding enforceability is subject to the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(iii) Enforceability may be limited to the extent that remedies are sought with respect to a breach that a court concludes is not material or does not adversely affect the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent.

(iv) Enforceability may be limited by any unconscionable or inequitable conduct on the Lender’s and/or the Administrative Agent’s part, defenses arising from the Lender’s and/or the Administrative Agent’s failure to act in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents, defenses arising as a consequence of the passage of time, or defenses arising as a result of the Lender’s and/or the Administrative Agent’s failure to act reasonably or in good faith.

(v) The provisions regarding the remedies available to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent on default as set forth in the Transaction Documents are subject to certain procedural requirements, which, with regard to several of the remedies, are not reflected in the Transaction Documents.

(vi) We express no opinion on the enforceability of the self-help, non-judicial remedies provided to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent in certain of the Transaction Documents. We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provision of the Transaction Documents that purports to grant Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent a power-of-attorney.

(ix) We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provisions requiring the Borrower or Guarantors to waive procedural, judicial, or substantive rights, such as rights to notice, service of process, right to a jury trial, right to object to jurisdiction or venue, right to claim damages, any provisions of Article 9 of the UCC that may not be waived, statutes of limitations, appraisal or valuation rights, and marshaling of assets.

(x) We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provisions requiring the Borrower or Guarantors to indemnify or make contribution to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent or their agents, officers, or directors or of any provisions exculpating or limiting the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent from liability for its actions or inaction to the extent such indemnification, contribution, exculpation, or limitation is contrary to public policy or law.

(xi) We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provisions permitting modifications of the Transaction Documents only if in writing. We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provision that purports to require that waivers must be in writing to the extent that an oral agreement or implied agreement by trade practice or course of conduct modifying provisions of the Transaction Documents has been made.

(xii) We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provision stating that the provisions of the Transaction Documents are severable.

(xiii) Unless otherwise expressly stated in the opinion, we express no opinion with respect to the laws and regulations relating to health and safety, labor, employment, employee benefits, or land use and subdivision; Federal Reserve Board margin regulations; anti-trust laws of the United States or any state; securities laws of the United States (including the Trust Indenture Act) or any state; or the tax laws of the United States or any state.

(xv) We express no opinion with respect to any documents defined or referred to in the Transaction Documents, other than the Transaction Documents themselves.

(xvi) The opinions expressed herein are subject to the effect of any judicial decision that may permit the introduction of parol evidence to modify the terms or the interpretation of agreements.

(xviii) We express no opinion as to any consent, approval, authorization, or other action or filing necessary or required for the ongoing operation of the Borrower’s or Guarantors’ businesses.

(xix) We express no opinion as to any consent, approval, authorization, or other action by, or filing with any county, city, or other municipality or any local government agency.

(xx) Our opinion in Paragraph IV.9 regarding consents and approvals is based upon our consideration of only those consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, registrations, declarations or filings required under those statutes, rules or regulations of the State of Maryland or Commonwealth of Virginia, if any, that, in our experience, are reasonably applicable to transactions of the type contemplated under the Transaction Documents.

(xxi) We express no opinion with respect to (a) the title to or the rights or interests of the Borrower and Guarantors in the Collateral, (b) the adequacy of the description of the Collateral, or (c) except as explicitly set forth herein, the creation, attachment, perfection or priority of any liens thereon and/or security interests therein.

(xxv) We express no opinion with respect to any security interest created under the Transaction Documents that purports to secure any present or future obligations or liabilities of the Borrower or Guarantors to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent (other than the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower and Guarantors to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent created or arising under the Transaction Documents) that are determined, in the case of obligations or liabilities of the Borrower and Guarantors to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent created in the future, not to constitute “future advances” within the meaning of Section 9-204(c) of the UCC, are determined not to have been within the contemplation of the Borrower, Guarantors, Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent at the time the Transaction Documents were executed, or are determined not to be of the same character or class as the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower and Guarantors to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent created or arising under the Transaction Documents.

(xxvi) We express no opinion as to personal property affixed to real property in such a manner so as to become a fixture.

(xxvii) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of the security interests under the Transaction Documents as against the competing interests of those third parties who would, in accordance with the provisions of the UCC or other applicable law, take free of any such security interest notwithstanding perfection thereof.

(xxviii) We express no opinion as to the perfection of the security interest of the Administrative Agent in any portion of the Pledged Stock, the continuous possession of which is not maintained by the Administrative Agent in the State of Maryland. In addition, we call to your attention that perfection (and the effect of perfection and non-perfection) of the security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Pledged Stock may be governed by laws other than those of the Maryland UCC to the extent the Pledged Stock become located in a jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland.

(xxix) We call to your attention that in the case of the issuance of additional shares or other distributions in respect of the Pledged Stock, the security interests of the Administrative Agent therein will be perfected only if possession thereof is obtained or other action appropriate to the nature of the distribution is taken, in either case, in accordance with the provisions of the Maryland UCC and other applicable law.

(xxx) We express no opinion regarding any security or other interests of the Borrower and Guarantors in property of another that secures the other’s obligations to the Borrower.

(xxxi) We express no opinion as to whether (a) the Borrower has the right to transfer rights in the Article 9 Collateral, the Pledged Stock, the Pledged Partnership Interests, or the Pledged Membership Interests to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent, or (b) provisions in the Transaction Documents granting an absolute assignment of rights or interests will be construed as effecting an absolute assignment rather than a collateral assignment or security interest.

(xxxii) The assignment of any contract, lease, license, or permit may require the approval of the issuer thereof or the other parties thereto.

(xxxiii) Except to the limited extent an Article 9 Security Interest, the security interest in the Pledged Stock, the security interest in the Pledged Partnership Interests, or the security interest in the Pledged Membership Interests may be created therein, we express no opinion with respect to any security interest in any accounts, chattel paper, documents, instruments or general intangibles with respect to which the account debtor or obligor is the United States, any state, county, city, municipality or other governmental body, or any department, agency or instrumentality thereof.

(xxxiv) Under the provisions of Section 9-108(c) of the UCC, to the extent any provision of the Transaction Documents purports to create a security interest in property described as “all assets,” “all personal property” or otherwise in a supergeneric manner, such provision does not reasonably identify the Collateral, the Pledged Stock, the Pledged Partnership Interests, and/or the Pledged Membership Interests and is not sufficient to create a security interest in any Collateral, the Pledged Stock, the Pledged Partnership Interests, and/or the Pledged Membership Interests so described.

(xxxv) We point out that:

(a) With regard to the UCC, (A) Section 9-301(1) of the UCC provides that, generally, the local law of the jurisdiction where a debtor is located governs perfection, the effect of perfection and non-perfection, and priority of a security interest in Collateral (as defined in the UCC) and (B) Section 9-307(e) of the UCC provides that a registered organization (as that term is defined in Section 9-102(71) of the UCC) that is organized under the laws of a state is located in that state, but

(b) the UCC elsewhere provides that (A) with respect to possessory security interests, the local law of jurisdiction where Collateral (as defined in the UCC) is located governs, among other things, perfection, (B) the local law of the depository bank’s jurisdiction governs perfection in deposit accounts, (C) the local law (if a state) where a security certificate is located governs, among other things, perfection other than perfection by the filing of a financing statement, (D) the local law (if a state) of an issuer’s jurisdiction governs, among other things, perfection in uncertificated securities other than perfection by the filing of a financing statement and the local law (if a state) of securities intermediary’s jurisdiction governs perfection in a securities entitlement or securities account other than perfection by the filing of a financing statement, (E) except for security interests in letter-of-credit rights perfected only by Section 9-308(d) of the UCC, the local law (if a state) of a issuer’s or nominee’s jurisdiction governs perfection in letter-of-credit rights, (F) with respect to goods that become fixtures, perfection and other matters are covered by the law of jurisdiction where the real estate is located, and (G) with respect to goods that are covered by a certificate of title, perfection and other matters are governed by the law of the jurisdiction issuing such certificate of title.

(c) Lenders’ and Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral will terminate upon a disposition authorized by Administrative Agent as to such disposed property.

(xxxvi) Our opinions regarding the creation and perfection of security interests are subject to the effect of (a) the limitations on the existence and perfection of security interests in proceeds resulting from the operation of Sections 9-203(f) and 9-315 of the UCC; (b) the limitations in favor of buyers imposed by Sections 9-320 and 9-330 of the UCC and in favor of licensees imposed by Section 9-321 of the UCC; (c) the limitations with respect to documents, instruments and securities imposed by Section 9-331 and Section 8-303 of the UCC; (d) laws, other than the UCC, that determine whether the Borrower’s rights in Collateral (as defined in the UCC) may be voluntarily or involuntarily transferred; (e) other rights of persons in possession of goods, instruments, money, tangible chattel paper or investment property; and (f) other rights of persons in control of investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights and electronic chattel paper.

(xxxvii) We also note the following: (a) rights to money or funds contained in a deposit account are subject to the rights of transferees under Section 9-327 of the UCC; (b) security interests in goods are subject to rights of holders of possessory liens under Section 9-333 of the UCC; (c) Security interests in deposit accounts are subject to the rights of the depositary bank under Section 9-340 of the UCC; (d) security interests in Collateral (as defined in the UCC) consisting of proceeds will be limited as provided in Sections 9-315 and 9-322(c) of the UCC; (e) security interests in goods that are installed in, or attached or affixed to any other goods may be subject to the provisions of Section 9-335 of the UCC, and may be subject to the provisions of Section 9-336 of the UCC to the extent that such goods form part of a larger product or mass.

(xxxviii) We express no opinion as to the Lenders’ and/or Administrative Agent’s rights in the Collateral, the Pledged Stock, the Pledged Partnership Interests, and/or the Pledged Membership Interests to the extent that the any Lender and/or Administrative Agent has knowledge that its security interest in the Collateral, the Pledged Stock, the Pledged Partnership Interests, or the Pledged Membership Interests violates the rights of another secured party.

(xxxix) With respect to our opinion as to the perfection of the security interest, we offer no opinion as to the continued perfection of that security interest. Without implying any limitation on the foregoing, we point out that the continued perfection of any security interest in any of the Collateral, Pledged Stock, the Pledged Partnership Interests, or Pledged Membership Interests (a) may be affected by the removal of such Collateral or Pledged Stock to another jurisdiction or upon the change of the name or the state of organization of any debtor, or (b) that is perfected by the filing of a financing statement, may be affected by the failure to file a timely continuation statement.

(xl) We express no opinion on any provision of the Transaction Documents which purports to authorize Administrative Agent, any Lender and each of their Affiliates to set off and apply any deposits at any time held, and any other indebtedness at any time owing, by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the account of Borrower or Guarantors or which purports to provide that any purchaser of a participation from any Lender may exercise setoff or similar rights with respect to such participation.

EXHIBIT 1.1(G)(2)

CONTINUING AGREEMENT OF GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP

THIS CONTINUING AGREEMENT OF GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP (this “Guaranty”), dated as of this 29th day of March, 2011, is jointly and severally given by each of the undersigned and each of the other Persons which become Guarantors hereunder from time to time (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”) in favor of PNC Bank, National Association, in its capacity as administrative agent (the “Agent”) for the Lenders (as hereinafter defined) in connection with that Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among Under Armour, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors now or hereafter party thereto, the Agent, the Lenders now or hereafter party thereto (the “Lenders”), SunTrust Bank, as Syndication Agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as Documentation Agent (as amended, restated, modified, or supplemented from time to time hereafter, the “Credit Agreement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them by the Credit Agreement and the rules of construction set forth in Section 1.2 [Construction] of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Guaranty.

1. Guarantied Obligations . To induce the Agent and the Lenders to make loans and grant other financial accommodations to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally unconditionally, and irrevocably, guaranties to the Agent, each Lender, and any provider of an Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product or a Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge (an “IRH Provider”), and becomes surety, as though it was a primary obligor for, the full and punctual payment and performance when due (whether on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise and including any amounts which would become due but for the operation of an automatic stay under the federal bankruptcy code of the United States or any similar laws of any country or jurisdiction) of all Obligations of the Borrower or any other Guarantor to the Agent or any of the Lenders or any Affiliate of any Lender under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether for principal, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses, or otherwise, and all refinancings or refundings thereof, whether such obligations, liabilities, or indebtedness are direct or indirect, secured or unsecured, joint or several, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, whether for payment or performance, now existing or hereafter arising (and including obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising or accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any Guarantor or which would have arisen or accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding, even if the claim for such obligation, liability, or indebtedness is not enforceable or allowable in such proceeding, and including all Obligations, regardless of whether any such extensions of credit are in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents or are made in circumstances in which any condition to extension of credit is not satisfied) (all of the foregoing obligations, liabilities and indebtedness are referred to herein collectively as the “Guarantied Obligations” and each as a “Guarantied Obligation”). Without limitation of the foregoing, any of the Guarantied Obligations shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty if the Agent or any of the Lenders (or any one or more assignees or transferees


thereof) from time to time assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of their respective rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other Person in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees as follows.

2. Guaranty . Each Guarantor hereby promises to pay and perform all such Guarantied Obligations immediately upon demand of the Agent and the Lenders or any one or more of them. All payments made hereunder shall be made by each Guarantor in immediately available funds in United States Dollars and shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, withholding, or other deduction of any nature.

3. Obligations Absolute . The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by the failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by any Lender, the Agent, or the Borrower or any other obligor on any of the Guarantied Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. Each of the Guarantors agrees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby consents to, at any time and from time to time, and the joint and several obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following:

(a) any lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Guarantied Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or any rights of the Agent or the Lenders or any other Person with respect thereto;

(b) any increase, decrease, or change in the amount, nature, type or purpose of any of, or any release, surrender, exchange, compromise or settlement of any of the Guarantied Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Loan Documents as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Guarantied Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations;

(c) any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, whether or not with any

 

- 2 -


reservation of rights against any Guarantor; or any application of collections (including, but not limited to, collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Guarantied Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, in preference to Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, or if any collections are applied to Guarantied Obligations, any application to particular Guarantied Obligations;

(d) any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, waiver, supplement, termination, subordination, compromise, release, surrender, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights, or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action by the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or, any other action or inaction by any of the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations. As used in this Guaranty, “direct or indirect security” for the Guarantied Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person;

(e) any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, the Borrower or any other Person; any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any other Person; or any action taken or election made by the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code), the Borrower, or any other Person in connection with any such proceeding;

(f) any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person with respect to any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; or any discharge by operation of law or release of the Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; or

(g) any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of, any Guarantor, a guarantor or a surety, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations in full.

Each Guarantor acknowledges, consents, and agrees that new Guarantors may join in this Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.1.12 of the Credit Agreement and each Guarantor affirms that its obligations shall continue hereunder undiminished.

4. Waivers, etc . Each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense to, or limitation on, its obligations under this Guaranty arising out of or based on any event or circumstance

referred to in Section 3 hereof. Without limitation and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives each of the following:

(b) any right to any marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against the Borrower or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against the Borrower or any other Person of any other right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, and any requirement that any Guarantor receive notice of any such acceptance;

(c) any defense or other right arising by reason of any law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including but not limited to anti-deficiency laws, “one action” laws or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them (including but not limited to commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Guarantied Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, to seek a deficiency against the Borrower or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Guarantied Obligations; and

(d) any and all defenses it may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like.

5. Reinstatement . This Guaranty is a continuing obligation of the Guarantors and shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that no Guarantied Obligations may be outstanding from time to time and notwithstanding any other event or circumstance. Upon termination of all Commitments, the expiration of all Letters of Credit and indefeasible payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations, this Guaranty shall terminate; provided , however , that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, any time any payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations is rescinded, recouped, avoided, or must otherwise

 

- 4 -


be returned or released by any Lender or Agent upon or during the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of, or any similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower or for any other reason whatsoever, all as though such payment had not been made and was due and owing.

6. Subrogation . Each Guarantor waives and agrees it will not exercise any rights against the Borrower or any other Guarantor arising in connection with, or any Collateral securing, the Guarantied Obligations (including rights of subrogation, contribution, and the like) until the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, and all Commitments have been terminated and all Letters of Credit have expired. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Guarantor by virtue of any right of subrogation, contribution, or the like, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and shall be held in trust for the benefit of, the Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

7. No Stay . Without limitation of any other provision of this Guaranty, if any declaration of default or acceleration or other exercise or condition to exercise of rights or remedies under or with respect to any Guarantied Obligation shall at any time be stayed, enjoined, or prevented for any reason (including but not limited to stay or injunction resulting from the pendency against the Borrower or any other Person of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding), the Guarantors agree that, for the purposes of this Guaranty and their obligations hereunder, the Guarantied Obligations shall be deemed to have been declared in default or accelerated, and such other exercise or conditions to exercise shall be deemed to have been taken or met.

8. Taxes .

(a) No Deductions . All payments made by any Guarantor under any of the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of any Lender and all income and franchise taxes of the United States applicable to any Lender (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any of the Loan Documents, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Subsection (a)) such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Guarantor shall make such deductions and (iii) such Guarantor shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant tax authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Stamp Taxes . In addition, each Guarantor agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, or registration of,

 

- 5 -


or otherwise with respect to, any of the Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Indemnification for Taxes Paid by any Lender . Each Guarantor shall indemnify each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Subsection) paid by any Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date a Lender makes written demand therefor.

(d) Certificate . Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of any Taxes or Other Taxes by any Guarantor, such Guarantor shall furnish to each Lender, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. If no Taxes or Other Taxes are payable in respect of any payment by such Guarantor, such Guarantor shall, if so requested by a Lender, provide a certificate of an officer of such Guarantor to that effect.

9. [Reserved] .

10. Notices . Each Guarantor agrees that all notices, statements, requests, demands and other communications under this Guaranty shall be given to such Guarantor at the address set forth on a Schedule to, or in a Guarantor Joinder and Assumption Agreement given under, the Credit Agreement and in the manner provided in Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement. The Agent and the Lenders may rely on any notice (whether or not made in a manner contemplated by this Guaranty) purportedly made by or on behalf of a Guarantor, and the Agent and the Lenders shall have no duty to verify the identity or authority of the Person giving such notice.

11. Counterparts; Telecopy Signatures . This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that a telecopy transmission to Agent or any Lender of signature pages hereof purporting to be signed on behalf of any Guarantor shall constitute effective and binding execution and delivery hereof by such Guarantor.

12. Setoff, Default Payments by the Borrower.

(a) In the event that at any time any obligation of the Guarantors now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty shall have become due and payable, the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall have the right from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, to set off against and apply to such due and payable amount any obligation of any nature of any Lender or the Agent, or any subsidiary or affiliate of any Lender or Agent, to any Guarantor, including but not limited to all deposits (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited, however evidenced) now or hereafter maintained by any Guarantor with the Agent or any Lender or any IRH Provider. Such right shall be absolute and unconditional in all circumstances and, without limitation, shall exist whether or not the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, shall have given any notice or made any demand under this Guaranty or under such

 

- 6 -


obligation to the Guarantor, whether such obligation to the Guarantor is absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured (it being agreed that the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may deem such obligation to be then due and payable at the time of such setoff), and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any collateral, guaranty, or other direct or indirect security or right or remedy available to the Agent or any of the Lenders. The rights of the Agent and the Lenders under this Section are in addition to such other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff and banker’s lien) which the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may have, and nothing in this Guaranty or in any other Loan Document shall be deemed a waiver of or restriction on the right of setoff or banker’s lien of the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any affiliate or subsidiary of the Agent or any of the Lenders and any holder of a participation in any obligation of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, shall have the same rights of setoff as the Agent and the Lenders as provided in this Section (regardless of whether such affiliate or participant otherwise would be deemed a creditor of the Guarantor).

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation beyond any applicable cure period of any default under any Guarantied Obligation, if any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or for the account of the Borrower, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of each Lender and Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be credited and applied to the Guarantied Obligations when due and payable.

13. Construction . The section and other headings contained in this Guaranty are for reference purposes only and shall not affect interpretation of this Guaranty in any respect. This Guaranty has been fully negotiated between the applicable parties, each party having the benefit of legal counsel, and accordingly neither any doctrine of construction of guaranties or suretyships in favor of the guarantor or surety, nor any doctrine of construction of ambiguities in agreement or instruments against the party controlling the drafting thereof, shall apply to this Guaranty.

14. Successors and Assigns . This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, and their successors and permitted assigns; provided , however , that no Guarantor may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein and any such purported assignment or transfer shall be null and void. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them (and any successive assignee or transferee), from time to time may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or any portion of any commitment to extend credit), or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other person and such Guarantied Obligations (including any Guarantied Obligations resulting from extension of credit by such other Person under or in connection with the Loan Documents) shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty, and to the extent of its interest in such Guarantied Obligations such other Person shall be vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Agent and the Lenders in this Guaranty or otherwise.

15. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial .

 

- 7 -


(a) Governing Law . This Guaranty shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to conflict of laws principles.

Each Guarantor hereby appoints a process agent, Corporation Service Company, as its agent to receive on behalf of such party and its respective property, service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any of the Guarantors in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s address, and each of the Guarantors hereby authorizes and directs the Process Agent to receive such service on its behalf. Each Guarantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions (or any political subdivision thereof) by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Each Guarantor further agrees that it shall, for so long as any Commitment, Letter of Credit or any Obligation of any Loan Party to the Lender remains outstanding, continue to retain Process Agent for the purposes set forth in this Section 15 .

16. Severability; Modification to Conform to Law .

(a) It is the intention of the parties that this Guaranty be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, but that the unenforceability (or modification to conform to such law) of any provision or provisions hereof shall not render unenforceable, or

impair, the remainder hereof. If any provision in this Guaranty shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, this Guaranty shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed amended to modify or delete, as necessary, the offending provision or provisions and to alter the bounds thereof in order to render it or them valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision or provisions in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

(b) Without limitation of the preceding subsection (a), to the extent that applicable law (including applicable laws pertaining to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent or preferential transfer) otherwise would render the full amount of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder invalid, voidable, or unenforceable on account of the amount of a Guarantor’s aggregate liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the aggregate amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Agent or any of the Lenders or such Guarantor or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding, which (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) may be an amount which is equal to the greater of:

(i) the fair consideration actually received by such Guarantor under the terms and as a result of the Loan Documents and the value of the benefits described in Section 16(b) hereof, including (and to the extent not inconsistent with applicable federal and state laws affecting the enforceability of guaranties) distributions, commitments, and advances made to or for the benefit of such Guarantor with the proceeds of any credit extended under the Loan Documents; or

(ii) the excess of (1) the amount of the fair value of the assets of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty as determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof, over (2) the amount of all liabilities of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty, also as determined on the basis of applicable federal and state laws governing the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section or elsewhere in this Guaranty, this Guaranty shall be presumptively valid and enforceable to its full extent in accordance with its terms, as if this Section (and references elsewhere in this Guaranty to enforceability to the fullest extent permitted by law) were not a part of this Guaranty, and in any related litigation the burden of proof shall be on the party asserting the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof or asserting any limitation on any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as to each element of such assertion.

17. Additional Guarantors . At any time after the initial execution and delivery of this Guaranty to the Agent and the Lenders, additional Persons may become parties to this Guaranty and thereby acquire the duties and rights of being Guarantors hereunder by executing and delivering to the Agent and the Lenders a Guarantor Joinder and Assumption Agreement

18. Joint and Several Obligations . The obligations and additional liabilities of the Guarantors under this Agreement are joint and several obligations of the Guarantors, and each Guarantor hereby waives to the full extent permitted by law any defense it may otherwise have to the payment and performance of the Obligations that its liability hereunder is limited and not joint and several. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers and those set forth below serve as a material inducement to the agreement of the Agent and the Lenders to make the Loans, and that the Agent and the Lenders are relying on each specific waiver and all such waivers in entering into this Guaranty. The undertakings of each Guarantor hereunder secure the obligations of itself and the other Guarantors. The Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Guaranty against any Guarantor without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Guarantor and such an election by the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Guarantor. Each of the Lenders and Agent hereby reserve all rights against each Guarantor.

19. Receipt of Credit Agreement, Other Loan Documents, Benefits .

(a) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Guarantor certifies that the representations and warranties made therein with respect to such Guarantor are true and correct. Further, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees to perform, comply with, and be bound by all of the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges, represents, and warrants that it receives synergistic benefits by virtue of its affiliation with the Borrower and the other Guarantors and that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and that such benefits, together with the rights of contribution and subrogation that may arise in connection herewith are a reasonably equivalent exchange of value in return for providing this Guaranty.

20. Miscellaneous .

(a) Generality of Certain Terms . As used in this Guaranty, the terms “hereof,” “herein,” and terms of similar import refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not to any particular term or provision; the term “including,” as used herein, is not a term of limitation and means “including, without limitation.”

(b) Amendments, Waivers . No amendment to or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless in a writing manually signed by or on behalf of the Agent and the Lenders. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No delay or failure of the Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, in exercising any right or remedy under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or

 

- 10 -


partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies available hereunder, under any other agreement or instrument, by law, or otherwise.

(c) Telecommunications . Each Lender and Agent shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any individual making any telecopy or telephonic notice, request, or signature without the necessity of receipt of any verification thereof.

(d) Expenses . Each Guarantor unconditionally agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Agent or any of the Lenders in enforcing this Guaranty against any Guarantor and each Guarantor shall pay and indemnify each Lender and Agent for, and hold it harmless from and against, any and all obligations, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses (including disbursements and reasonable legal fees of counsel to any Lender or Agent), penalties, judgments, suits, actions, claims, and disbursements imposed on, asserted against, or incurred by any Lender or Agent (A) relating to the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement of or collection under this Guaranty or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to any of the Obligations, including in any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceeding in any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof; (B) relating to any amendment, modification, waiver, or consent hereunder or relating to any telecopy or telephonic transmission purporting to be by any Guarantor or the Borrower; (C) in any way relating to or arising out of this Guaranty, or any document, instrument, or agreement relating to any of the Guarantied Obligations, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Lender or Agent hereunder, and including those arising directly or indirectly from the violation or asserted violation by any Guarantor or the Borrower or Agent or any Lender of any law, rule, regulation, judgment, order, or the like of any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof (including those relating to environmental protection, health, labor, importing, exporting, or safety) and regardless whether asserted by any governmental entity or any other Person.

(e) Prior Understandings . This Guaranty and the Credit Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all other prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements.

(f) Survival . All representations and warranties of the Guarantors made in connection with this Guaranty shall survive, and shall not be waived by, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, any investigation by or knowledge of the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, any extension of credit, or any other event or circumstance whatsoever.

Such an investigation performed by the Administrative Agent shall be at the Indemnitors’ expense if the performance of the investigation is commenced (i) upon the occurrence of a default hereunder or of a default or “Event of Default” under any of the Loan Documents; or (ii) because the Administrative Agent has a reasonable belief that the Indemnitor has violated any provision of this Agreement (including any representation, warranty or covenant).

8. Administrative Agent’s Right to Select Engineers, Consultants and Attorneys .

The Indemnitor agrees that, in the event the Administrative Agent assumes the Lease, the Indemnitor shall, subject to the terms of the Lease, deliver the Property to the Administrative Agent free of any and all Hazardous Substances, (except for (a) those Hazardous Substances which are used or present in the ordinary course of the Indemnitors’ business in compliance with all Environmental Laws and have not been released into the environment in such a manner as to constitute Contamination hereunder, and (b) those Hazardous Substances which are naturally occurring on the Property, but only in such naturally occurring form and only in such quantities that are known not to be harmful, hazardous or injurious to the health or safety of occupants or users of the Property) or Contamination in a condition such that the Property conforms in all material respects with all Environmental Laws and such that no remedial or removal action or other Corrective Work will be required with respect to the Property. The Indemnitors’ obligations as set forth in this Section are strictly for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders as holders of any portion of the Loan and shall not in any way impair or affect the Administrative Agent’s right to assume the Lease.

10. Administrative Agent’s Right to Cure . In addition to the other remedies provided to the Administrative Agent in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, should the Indemnitor fail to abide by any provisions of this Agreement, subject to the terms of the Lease, the Administrative Agent may, should it elect to do so, perform any Corrective Work and any other such actions as it, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to repair, respond to and remedy any damage to the Property caused by Hazardous Substances or Contamination or any such Corrective Work. In such event, all funds expended by the Administrative Agent in connection with the performance of any Corrective Work, including all contractor charges, reasonable attorneys’ fees, engineering fees, consultant fees and similar charges, shall become a part of the obligation secured by the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents and shall be due and payable by the Indemnitor on demand. Each disbursement made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this provision shall bear interest at the lower of the rate of interest after default (as contained in Section 3.3.2 of the Credit Agreement) or the highest rate allowable under applicable laws from the date the Indemnitor shall have received written notice that the funds have been advanced by the Administrative Agent until paid in full.

11. Scope of Liability . The liability under this Agreement shall in no way be limited or impaired by: (a) any extension of time for performance required by any of the Loan Documents; (b) any assignment of the Credit Agreement or Loan Documents; (c) the discharge of the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents; (d) any exculpatory provisions in any of the Loan Documents limiting the Administrative Agent’s recourse; (e) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by the Indemnitor, or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents; (f) the release of the Indemnitor or any guarantor or any other person from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents by operation of law, the Administrative Agent’s voluntary act or otherwise; (g) the release or substitution, in whole or in part, of any security for the Notes or other obligations; or (h) the Administrative Agent’s failure to file any UCC financing statements

(or the Administrative Agent’s improper recording or filing of any thereof) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for the Credit Agreement or other obligations; and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to the Indemnitor or any guarantor or other person or entity and with or without consideration.

12. Notices . All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications required or permitted hereunder (“ Notices ”) must be in writing and will be effective upon receipt. Notices may be given in any manner to which the parties may separately agree, including electronic mail. Without limiting the foregoing, first class mail, facsimile transmission and commercial courier service are hereby agreed to as acceptable methods for giving Notices. Regardless of the manner in which provided, Notices may be sent to a party’s address as set forth in the Credit Agreement or to such other address any party may give to the other for such purpose in accordance with this section.

13. Preservation of Rights . No delay or omission on the Administrative Agent’s part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Administrative Agent’s action or inaction impair any such right or power. The Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent may have under other agreements, at law or in equity. Any representations, warranties, covenants or indemnification liabilities for breach thereof contained in this Agreement shall not be affected by any knowledge of, or investigations performed by, the Administrative Agent. Any one or more persons or entities comprising the Indemnitor, or any other party liable upon or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan, may be released without affecting the liability of any party not so released.

14. Illegality . If any provision contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, it shall not affect or impair the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

15. Changes in Writing . No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Indemnitor from, any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless made in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Indemnitor will entitle the Indemnitor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.

16. Successors and Assigns; Survival . This Agreement will be binding upon the Indemnitor and its heirs, administrators, successors and assigns, and will inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and its successors and assigns as well as any persons or entities who acquire possession of the Property from, or through action by, the Administrative Agent; provided , however , that the Indemnitor may not assign this Agreement in whole or in part without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent and the Administrative Agent at any time may assign this Agreement in whole or in part to any Person who succeeds the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents or who acts on behalf of the Administrative Agent in connection with the exercise of its rights pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Credit

 

- 10 -

INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

THIS INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of March 29, 2011 and is made by and among the entities listed on the signature page hereto and each Person who hereafter becomes a Guarantor under the Credit Agreement (as defined below) (subsequently joining this Agreement) (each being individually referred to herein as a “Company” and collectively as the “Companies”).

WITNESSETH THAT:

WHEREAS, each capitalized term used herein shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meaning specified in that certain Credit Agreement dated as of even date herewith (as it may be hereafter amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) by and among Under Armour, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors now or hereafter party thereto, the Lenders now or hereafter party thereto (the “Lenders”), PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”) for the Lenders, SunTrust Bank, as Syndication Agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as Documentation Agent.; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents referred to and defined in the Credit Agreement, the Lenders intend to make Loans to the Borrower; and

WHEREAS, the Companies are or may become indebted to each other (the Indebtedness of each of the Companies to any other Company, now existing or hereafter incurred (whether created directly or acquired by assignment or otherwise), and interest and premiums, if any, thereon and other amounts payable in respect thereof are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Intercompany Indebtedness”); and

WHEREAS, the obligations of the Lenders to maintain the Commitments and make Loans to the Borrower from time to time are subject to the condition, among others, that the Companies subordinate the Intercompany Indebtedness to the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Company to the Agent or the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product (collectively, the “Senior Debt”) in the manner set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

1. Intercompany Indebtedness Subordinated to Senior Debt . The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated by reference. All Intercompany Indebtedness shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions contained herein.


2. Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. Upon any distribution of assets of any Company in the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to any such Company or to its creditors, as such, or to its assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of any such Company, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of assets and liabilities of any such Company (a Company distributing assets as set forth herein being referred to in such capacity as a “Distributing Company”), then and in any such event, the Agent shall be entitled to receive, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests may appear, indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due or to become due (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) on or in respect of any and all Senior Debt before the holder of any Intercompany Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company is entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal of or interest on such Intercompany Indebtedness, and to that end, the Agent shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment of the Senior Debt, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Intercompany Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company in any such case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up event.

3. No Commencement of Any Proceeding. Each Company agrees that, so long as the Senior Debt shall remain unpaid, it will not commence, or join with any creditor other than the Lenders and the Agent in commencing, any proceeding referred to in Section 2 herein against any other Company which owes it any Intercompany Indebtedness.

4. Prior Payment of Senior Debt Upon Acceleration of Intercompany Indebtedness. If any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness owed by any Company becomes or is declared due and payable before its stated maturity, then and in such event the Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to receive indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due and to become due on or in respect of the Senior Debt (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) before the holder of any such Intercompany Indebtedness is entitled to receive any payment thereon.

5. No Payment When Senior Debt in Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or such an Event of Default or Potential Default would result from or exist after giving effect to a payment with respect to any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness, unless the Required Lenders shall have consented to or waived the same, so long as any of the Senior Debt shall remain outstanding, no payment shall be made by any Company owing such Intercompany Indebtedness on account of principal or interest on any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness.

6. Payment Permitted if No Default. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any of the Companies, at any time except during the pendency of any of the conditions

 

- 2 -

- 7 -


(a) The Administrative Agent may, after ten (10) days’ advance notice to a Pledgor, sell, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of such Pledgor’s Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Pledgor agrees that ten (10) days’ advance notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales of the Pledged Collateral to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities, shares, capital stock, member interests, partnership interests or ownership interests for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Administrative Agent shall complete all sales, assignments, options or other dispositions in compliance with all applicable securities laws.

(b) The proceeds of any collection, sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, shall, after the Administrative Agent has made all deductions of expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in connection with repossession, collection, sale or disposition of such Pledged Collateral or in connection with the enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral, including in any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings, be applied against the Secured Obligations, whether or not all the same be then due and payable, as set forth in Section 8.2.5 of the Credit Agreement [Application of Proceeds].

8. Administrative Agent’s Duties .

The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Pledged Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Pledged Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Pledged Collateral.

9. Additional Pledgors .

It is anticipated that additional Persons will from time to time become Subsidiaries of a Loan Party (a “ New Subsidiary ”) and will own equity interests in a Subsidiary.

10. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided under the other Loan Documents or by Law. Each Pledgor waives any right to require the Administrative Agent to proceed against any other Person or to exhaust any of the Pledged Collateral or other security for the Secured Obligations or to pursue any remedy in the Administrative Agent’s power.

11. No Discharge Until Indefeasible Payment of the Secured Obligations.

The pledge, security interests, and other Liens and the obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by Administrative Agent, or any other obligor on any of the Secured Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Pledgor or which would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Pledgor as a matter of law or equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor hereby consents to, and the pledge, security interests, and other Liens given by such Pledgor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following at any time and from time to time:

(a) any lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability, or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document, any obligations in connection with any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation, or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Secured Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or any rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Person with respect thereto;

(b) any increase, decrease, or change in the amount, nature, type or purpose of any of or any release, surrender, exchange, compromise or settlement of any of the Secured Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Loan Documents as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Secured Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Loan Document, any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations;

(c) any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document, any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents or any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise,

 

- 9 -


or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against such Pledgor or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document or any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Pledgor; or any application of collections (including collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Secured Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, in preference to Secured Obligations or, if any collections are applied to Secured Obligations, any application to particular Secured Obligations;

(d) any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, supplement, termination, subordination, release, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action by the Administrative Agent or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or, any other action or inaction by Administrative Agent or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations (including the Pledged Collateral). As used in this Agreement, “direct or indirect security” for the Secured Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person;

(e) any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, any Pledgor or any other Person; any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to any Pledgor or any other Person; or any action taken or election (including any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable law of any jurisdiction) made by Administrative Agent or any Pledgor or by any other Person in connection with any such proceeding;

(f) any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Pledgor or any other Person with respect to any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; or any discharge by operation of law or release of any Pledgor or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; or

(g) any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of a guarantor or a surety, including any Pledgor, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in full.

 

- 10 -


12. Taxes .

(a) No Deductions . All payments and collections made by or from any Pledgor under this Agreement shall be made or received free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of Administrative Agent and all income and franchise taxes of the United States applicable to Administrative Agent (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Pledgor shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable or any collection made under this Agreement, (i) the sum payable or collectable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable or collectable under this Subsection) Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Pledgor shall make such deductions and (iii) such Pledgor shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant tax authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Stamp Taxes . In addition, each Pledgor acknowledges that the Pledged Collateral secures payment of all present and future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment or collection made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Indemnification for Taxes Paid by Administrative Agent . Each Pledgor acknowledges that the Pledged Collateral secures the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 12) paid by Administrative Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.

(d) Certificate . In the event any Pledgor pays any Taxes or Other Taxes, within 30 days after the date of any such payment, such Pledgor shall furnish to Administrative Agent, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(e) Survival . Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Pledgor hereunder, the agreements and obligations of each Pledgor contained in Clauses (a) through (d) directly above shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest under any of the Notes and the termination of the Credit Agreement.

13. Waivers .

Each Pledgor hereby waives any and all defenses which any Pledgor may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like and each Pledgor hereby waives any defense to or limitation on its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in the immediately preceding section hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Pledgor hereby further waives each of the following:

 

- 11 -


(a) all notices, disclosures and demands of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time to preserve intact any rights against such Pledgor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in the immediately preceding section hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Loan Document or any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Secured Obligations; any notice of any default or any failure on the part of such Pledgor or any other Person to comply with any Loan Document or any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or any of the Secured Obligations or any requirement pertaining to any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; and any notice or other information pertaining to the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), or prospects of any Pledgor or any other Person;

(b) any right to any marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against such Pledgor or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against such Pledgor or any other Person of any other right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document, any Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and any requirement that any Pledgor receive notice of any such acceptance; and

(c) any defense or other right arising by reason of any Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including anti-deficiency laws, “one action” laws, or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Administrative Agent (including commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Secured Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent to seek a deficiency against any Pledgor or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Secured Obligations.

14. Assignment .

All rights of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns.

Any provision of this Agreement which shall be held invalid or unenforceable shall be ineffective without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof.

 

- 12 -


16. Governing Law .

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of Maryland without regard to its conflicts of law principles, except to the extent the validity or perfection of the security interests or the remedies hereunder in respect of any Pledged Collateral are governed by the law of a jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland.

17. Notices .

All notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications (collectively, “notices”) given to or made upon any party hereto under the provisions of this Agreement shall be as set forth in Section 10.5 [Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication] of the Credit Agreement.

18. Specific Performance .

Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, in addition to the other rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, because the Administrative Agent’s remedies at law for failure of such Pledgor to comply with the provisions hereof relating to the Administrative Agent’s rights (i) to inspect the books and records related to the Pledged Collateral, (ii) to receive the various notifications such Pledgor is required to deliver hereunder, (iii) to obtain copies of agreements and documents as provided herein with respect to the Pledged Collateral, (iv) to enforce the provisions hereof pursuant to which such Pledgor has appointed the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact, and (v) to enforce the Administrative Agent’s remedies hereunder, would be inadequate and that any such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, such Pledgor agrees that each such provision hereof may be specifically enforced.

19. Voting Rights in Respect of the Pledged Collateral .

So long as no Event of Default shall occur and be continuing under the Credit Agreement, each Pledgor may exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided , however , that such Pledgor will not exercise or will refrain from exercising any such voting and other consensual right pertaining to the Pledged Collateral, as the case may be, if such action would have a material adverse effect on the value of any Pledged Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition thereto, the Pledgors shall not vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, any of the Companies to issue any stock, member interests, partnership interests or other equity securities, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests of any nature or to issue any other securities, shares, capital stock, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any stock, member interests, partnership interests or other equity securities, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests of any nature of any such Company or to enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of the Pledgor or the Administrative Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Pledged Collateral.

 

- 13 -


20. Consent to Jurisdiction .

Each Pledgor and each of the Companies hereby irrevocably submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of Maryland sitting in Baltimore County and of the Northern Division of the United States District Court for the State of Maryland located in Baltimore City, and any Appellate Court of any such Court, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and the Pledgors and each of the Companies hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Maryland State or Federal Court. Each Pledgor and each of the Companies hereby waives to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding. Each Pledgor and each of the Companies hereby appoints the process agent identified below (the “Process Agent”) as its agent to receive on behalf of such party and its respective property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any of the Pledgors or the Companies in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s address, and each of the Pledgors and the Companies hereby authorizes and directs the Process Agent to receive such service on its behalf. Each Pledgor and each of the Companies agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions (or any political subdivision thereof) by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

22. Entire Agreement; Amendments .

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements relating to a grant of a security interest in the Pledged Collateral by any Pledgor. This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented except by a writing signed by the Administrative Agent and the Pledgors.

23. Counterparts; Telecopy Signatures .

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument. Each Pledgor

 

- 14 -

Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Collateral’ shall specifically exclude the following: (y) the Trademarks (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of each of the Debtors; and (z) the Tide Point Property.

(c) “Secured Obligations” shall mean and include the following: (i) all now existing and hereafter arising Obligations of each and every Debtor to the Agent, the Lenders, or any provider of a Lender Provided Interest Rate Hedge or an Other Lender Provided Financial Services Product (an “IRH Provider”) under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including all obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, of each and every Debtor to the Agent, the Lenders, or any IRH Provider, now existing or hereafter incurred under the Credit Agreement or the Notes or the Guaranty Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as any of the same or any one or more of them may from time to time be amended, restated, modified, or supplemented, together with any and all extensions, renewals, refinancings, and refundings thereof in whole or in part (and including obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising or accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding with respect to any Debtor or which would have arisen or accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding, even if the claim for such obligation, liability or indebtedness is not enforceable or allowable in such proceeding, and including all obligations, liabilities and indebtedness arising from any extensions of credit under or in connection with the Loan Documents from time to time, regardless whether any such extensions of credit are in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents or are made in circumstances in which any condition to extension of credit is not satisfied); (ii) all reimbursement obligations of each and every Debtor with respect to any one or more Letters of Credit issued by Agent or any Lender; (iii) all indebtedness, loans, obligations, expenses and liabilities of each and every Debtor to the Agent, any of the Lenders, or

(d) “Receivables” means all of the Collateral except Equipment and Inventory.

2. As security for the due and punctual payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in full, each Debtor hereby agrees that the Agent and the Lenders and any IRH Provider shall have, and each Debtor hereby grants to and creates in favor of the Agent for the benefit of itself, the Lenders and any IRH Provider, a continuing first priority lien on and security interest under the Code in and to the Collateral subject only to Permitted Liens. Without limiting the generality of Section 4 below, each Debtor further agrees that with respect to each item of Collateral as to which (i) the creation of a valid and enforceable security interest is not governed exclusively by the Code or (ii) the perfection of a valid and enforceable first priority security interest therein under the Code cannot be accomplished either by the Agent taking possession thereof or by the filing in appropriate locations of appropriate Code financing statements executed by such Debtor, such Debtor will at its expense execute and deliver to the Agent and hereby does authorize the Agent to execute and file such documents, agreements, notices, assignments and instruments and take such further actions as may be requested by the Agent from time to time for the purpose of creating a valid and perfected first priority Lien on such item, subject only to Permitted Liens, enforceable against such Debtor and all third parties to secure the Secured Obligations.

3. Each Debtor represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders that: (a) subject to Permitted Liens, such Debtor has good and marketable title to its Collateral; (b) except for the security interest granted to and created in favor of the Agent for the benefit of itself and the Lenders hereunder and Permitted Liens, all the Collateral is free and clear of any Lien; (c) each Debtor will defend the Collateral against all claims and demands of all persons at any time claiming the same or any interest therein; (d) each Account Receivable is genuine and enforceable in accordance with its terms and such Debtor will defend the same against all claims, demands, recoupment, setoffs, and counterclaims at any time asserted; (e) at the time any Account Receivable becomes subject to this Agreement, each such Account Receivable will be a good and valid Account Receivable representing a bona fide sale of goods or services by such Debtor and such goods will have been shipped to the respective account debtors or the services will have been performed for the respective account debtors, (or for those on behalf of whom the account debtors are obligated on the Account Receivables) and no such Account Receivable will at such time be subject to any claim for credit, allowance, setoff, recoupment, defense, counterclaim or adjustment by any account debtor or otherwise which would create a Material

 

- 3 -


Adverse Change; (f) the exact legal name of each Debtor is as set forth on the signature page hereto; and (g) the state of incorporation, formation or organization, as applicable, of such Debtor is as set forth on Schedule A hereto.

4. Each Debtor will faithfully preserve and protect the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral as a prior perfected security interest under the Code, superior and prior to the rights of all third Persons, except for holders of Permitted Liens, and will do all such other acts and things and will, upon request therefor by the Agent, execute, deliver, file and record, and each Debtor hereby authorizes the Agent to so file, all such other documents and instruments, including, without limitation, financing statements, security agreements, assignments and documents and powers of attorney with respect to the Collateral, and pay all filing fees and taxes related thereto, as the Agent, in its reasonable discretion, may deem necessary or advisable from time to time in order to attach, continue, preserve, perfect, and protect said security interest (including the filing at any time or times after the date hereof of financing statements under, and in the locations advisable pursuant to, the Code); and, each Debtor hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent, its officers, employees and agents, or any of them, as attorneys-in-fact for such Debtor to execute, deliver, file and record such items for such Debtor and in such Debtor’s name, place and stead. This power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable for the life of this Agreement.

5. Each Debtor jointly and severally covenants and agrees that:

(a) it will defend the Agent’s and the Lenders’ right, title and lien on and security interest in and to the Collateral and the proceeds thereof against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever, other than the holders of Permitted Liens, other than any Person claiming a right in the Collateral pursuant to an agreement between such Person and the Agent;

(b) it will not suffer or permit to exist on any Collateral any Lien except for Permitted Liens;

(c) it will not take or omit to take any action, the taking or the omission of which might result in a material alteration (except as permitted by the Credit Agreement) or impairment of the Collateral or of the Agent’s rights under this Agreement;

(d) it will not sell, assign or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Collateral except as permitted in Section 7.2.6 [Disposition of Assets or Subsidiaries] of the Credit Agreement;

(e) it will (i) except for such Collateral delivered to the Agent pursuant to this Section 5 or otherwise now or hereafter under the control of the Agent, obtain and maintain sole and exclusive possession of the Collateral, (ii) maintain its chief executive office and keep the Collateral and all records pertaining thereto at the locations specified on the Security Interest Data Summary attached as Schedule A hereto, unless it shall have given the Agent prior notice and taken any action reasonably requested by the Agent to maintain its security interest therein; (iii) notify the Agent if an Account Receivable becomes evidenced or secured by an Instrument or Chattel Paper and deliver to the Agent upon the Agent’s request therefor all Collateral

 

- 4 -


consisting of Instruments and Chattel Paper immediately upon such Debtor’s receipt of a request therefor, (iv) deliver to the Agent possession of all Collateral the possession of which is required to perfect the Agent’s lien thereon or security interest therein or the possession of which grants priority over a Person filing a financing statement with respect thereto, (v) if required by the Credit Agreement, execute control agreements and cause other Persons to execute acknowledgments in form and substance satisfactory to the agent evidencing the Agent’s control with respect to all Collateral the control or acknowledgment of which perfects the Agent’s security interest therein, including Letters of Credit, Letter of Credit Rights, Electronic Chattel Paper, Deposit Accounts and Investment Property, and (vi) keep materially accurate and complete books and records concerning the Collateral and such other books and records as the Agent may from time to time reasonably require;

(f) it will promptly furnish to the Agent such information and documents relating to the Collateral as the Agent may reasonably request, including, without limitation, all invoices, Documents, contracts, Chattel Paper, Instruments and other writings pertaining to such Debtor’s contracts or the performance thereof, all of the foregoing to be certified upon request of the Agent by an authorized officer of such Debtor;

(g) it will not change its state of incorporation, formation or organization, as applicable, without providing thirty (30) days prior written notice the Agent;

(h) it will not change its name without providing thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Agent;

(i) it shall preserve its existence as a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or limited partnership, as applicable, and shall not (i) in one, or a series of related transactions, merge into or consolidate with any other entity, the survivor of which is not such Debtor, or (ii) sell all or substantially all or its assets except, in each case, to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement;

(j) if it shall at any time acquire a commercial tort claim, as defined in the Code, such Debtor shall immediately notify the Agent in a writing signed by such Debtor of the details thereof and grant to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, with such writing to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and such writing shall constitute a supplement to Schedule B hereto;

(k) it hereby authorizes the Agent to, at any time and from time to time, file in any one or more jurisdictions financing statements that describe the Collateral, together with continuation statements thereof and amendments thereto, without the signature of such Debtor and which contain any information required by the Code or any other applicable statute applicable to such jurisdiction for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statements, continuation statements, or amendments. Each Debtor agrees to furnish any such information to the Agent promptly upon request. Any such financing statements, continuation statements, or amendments may be signed by Agent on behalf of such Debtor if the Agent so elects and may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction; and

 

- 5 -


(l) it shall at any time and from time to time take such steps as the Agent may reasonably request as are necessary for the Agent to insure the continued perfection of the Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interest in the Collateral with the same priority required hereby and the preservation of its rights therein.

6. Each Debtor assumes full responsibility for taking any and all necessary steps to preserve the Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights with respect to the Collateral against all Persons other than anyone asserting rights in respect of a Permitted Lien. The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Agent takes such action for that purpose as such Debtor shall request in writing, provided that such requested action will not, in the judgment of the Agent, impair the security interest in the Collateral created hereby or the Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights in, or the value of, the Collateral, and provided further that such written request is received by the Agent in sufficient time to permit the Agent to take the requested action.

7. No Discharge Until Indefeasible Payment of the Secured Obligations.

The pledge, security interests, and other Liens and the obligations of each Debtor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by Agent, or any other obligor on any of the Secured Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Debtor or which would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Debtor as a matter of law or equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Debtor hereby consents to, and the pledge, security interests, and other Liens given by such Debtor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by, any of the following at any time and from time to time:

(a) any lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability, or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation, or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Secured Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or any rights of the Agent or any other Person with respect thereto;

(b) any increase, decrease, or change in the amount, nature, type or purpose of any of the Secured Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Loan Documents as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Secured Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations;

(c) any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or

 

- 6 -


non-exercise, of any right or remedy against such Debtor or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Debtor; or any application of collections (including collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Secured Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, in preference to Secured Obligations or, if any collections are applied to Secured Obligations, any application to particular Secured Obligations;

(d) any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, supplement, termination, subordination, release, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action by the Agent or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or, any other action or inaction by Agent or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations (including the Collateral). As used in this Agreement, “direct or indirect security” for the Secured Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person;

(e) any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, any Debtor or any other Person; any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to any Debtor or any other Person; or any action taken or election (including any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable law of any jurisdiction) made by Agent or any Debtor or by any other Person in connection with any such proceeding;

(f) any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Debtor or any other Person with respect to any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; or any discharge by operation of law or release of any Debtor or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; or

(g) any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of a guarantor or a surety, including any Debtor, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in full.

8. Waivers.

Each Debtor hereby waives any and all defenses which any Debtor may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like and each Debtor hereby waives any defense to or limitation on its obligations under this Agreement arising out of

 

- 7 -


or based on any event or circumstance referred to in the immediately preceding section hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Debtor hereby further waives each of the following:

(a) all notices, disclosures and demands of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time to preserve intact any rights against such Debtor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in the immediately preceding section hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Secured Obligations; any notice of any default or any failure on the part of such Debtor or any other Person to comply with any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any requirement pertaining to any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; and any notice or other information pertaining to the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), or prospects of any Debtor or any other Person;

(b) any right to any marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against such Debtor or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding, or to the exercise against such Debtor or any other Person of any other right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Agent or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and any requirement that any Debtor receive notice of any such acceptance; and

(c) any defense or other right arising by reason of any Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including anti-deficiency laws, “one action” laws, or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Agent (including commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Secured Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Agent to seek a deficiency against any Debtor or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Secured Obligations.

9. The Obligations and additional liabilities of the Debtors under this Agreement are joint and several obligations of the Debtors, and each Debtor hereby waives to the full extent permitted by law any defense it may otherwise have to the payment and performance of the Obligations that its liability hereunder is limited and not joint and several. Each Debtor acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers serve as a material inducement to the agreement of the Agent and the Lenders to make the Loans, and that the Agent and the Lenders are relying on each specific waiver and all such waivers in entering into this Agreement. The undertakings of each Debtor hereunder secure the obligations of itself and the other Debtors. The Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Agreement against any Debtor without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Debtor and

 

- 8 -


such an election by the agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Debtor. Each of the Lenders and Agent hereby reserve all right against each Debtor.

10. (a) At any time and from time to time whether or not an Event of Default then exists and without prior notice to or consent of any Debtor, the Agent may at its option take such actions as the Agent deems appropriate (i) to attach, perfect, continue, preserve and protect the Agent’s and the Lenders’ first priority security interest in or lien on the Collateral, and/or (ii) to inspect, audit and verify the Collateral, including reviewing all of such Debtor’s books and records and copying and making excerpts therefrom, provided that prior to an Event of Default or a Potential Default, the same is done with reasonable advance notice during normal business hours to the extent access to such Debtor’s premises is required, and (iii) to add all liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) to the Secured Obligations, to be paid by the Debtors to the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders upon demand.

(b) At any time and from time to time after an Event of Default exists and is continuing and without prior notice to or consent of any Debtor, the Agent may at its option take such action as the Agent deems appropriate (i) to maintain, repair, protect and insure the Collateral, and/or (ii) to perform, keep, observe and render true and correct any and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of any Debtor hereunder, and (iii) to add all liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) to the Secured Obligations, to be paid by any Debtor to the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders upon demand.

11. After there exists any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement and following acceleration pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Credit Agreement:

(a) The Agent shall have and may exercise all the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the Code in effect at the time, and such other rights and remedies as may be provided by Law and as set forth below, including, without limitation, to take over and collect all of any Debtor’s Account Receivables and all other Collateral, and to this end each Debtor hereby appoints the Agent, its officers, employees and agents, as its irrevocable, true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with all necessary power and authority to: (i) take possession immediately, with or without notice, demand, or legal process, of any of or all of the Collateral wherever found, and for such purposes, enter upon any premises upon which the Collateral may be found and remove the Collateral therefrom; (ii) require any Debtor to assemble the Collateral and deliver it to the Agent or to any place designated by the Agent at such Debtor’s expense; (iii) receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to any Debtor and notify postal authorities to change the address for delivery thereof to such address as the Agent may designate; (iv) demand payment of the Account Receivables; (v) enforce payment of the Account Receivables by legal proceedings or otherwise; (vi) exercise all of any Debtor’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Account Receivables; (vii) settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew the Account Receivables; (viii) settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect the Account Receivables; (ix) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, sell or assign the Account Receivables upon such terms, for such amounts and at such time or times as the Agent

 

- 9 -


deems advisable; (x) discharge and release the Account Receivables; (xi) take control, in any manner, of any item of payment or proceeds from any account debtor; (xii) prepare, file and sign any Debtor’s name on any Proof of Claim in Bankruptcy or similar document against any account debtor; (xiii) prepare, file and sign any Debtor’s name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Account Receivables; (xiv) do all acts and things necessary, in the Agent’s sole discretion, to fulfill any Debtor’s obligations to the Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, Loan Documents or otherwise; (xv) endorse the name of any Debtor upon any check, Chattel Paper, Document, Instrument, invoice, freight bill, bill of lading or similar document or agreement relating to the Account Receivables or Inventory; (xvi) use any Debtor’s stationery and sign such Debtor’s name to verifications of the Account Receivables and notices thereof to account debtors; (xvii) access and use the information recorded on or contained in any data processing equipment or computer hardware or software relating to the Account Receivables, Inventory, or other Collateral or proceeds thereof to which any Debtor has access; (xviii) demand, sue for, collect, compromise and give acquittances for any and all Collateral; (xix) prosecute, defend or compromise any action, claim or proceeding with respect to any of the Collateral; and (xx) take such other action as the Agent may deem appropriate, including extending or modifying the terms of payment of any Debtor’s debtors. This power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable for the life of this Agreement. To the extent permitted by Law, each Debtor hereby waives all claims of damages due to or arising from or connected with any of the rights or remedies exercised by the Agent pursuant to this Agreement, except claims for physical damage to the Collateral arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Agent.

(b) The Agent shall have the right to lease, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any of the Collateral at public or private sale or sales for cash, credit (which shall be applied against the Obligations) or any combination thereof, with such notice as may be required by Law (it being agreed by each Debtor that, in the absence of any contrary requirement of Law, ten (10) days’ prior notice of a public or private sale of Collateral shall be deemed reasonable notice), in lots or in bulk, for cash or on credit (which shall be applied against the Obligations), all as the Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable. Such sales may be adjourned from time to time with or without notice. The Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Debtor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use any Debtor’s premises without charge for such sales for such time or times as the Agent may see fit. The Agent may purchase all or any part of the Collateral at public or, if permitted by Law, private sale and, in lieu of actual payment of such purchase price, may set off the amount of such price against the Secured Obligations.

(c) Each Debtor, at its cost and expense (including the cost and expense of any of the following referenced consents, approvals, etc.) will promptly execute and deliver or cause the execution and delivery of all applications, certificates, instruments, registration statements, and all other documents and papers the Agent may request in connection with the obtaining of any consent, approval, registration, qualification, permit, license, accreditation, or authorization of any other Official Body or other Person necessary or appropriate for the effective exercise of any rights hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Debtor agrees that in the event the Agent on behalf of itself and/or the Lenders shall exercise its rights hereunder or pursuant to the other Loan Documents, to

 

- 10 -


sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, or vote, consent, operate, or take any other action in connection with any of the Collateral, such Debtor shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) all applications, certificates, assignments and other documents that the Agent requests to facilitate such actions and shall otherwise promptly, fully, and diligently cooperate with the Agent and any other Persons in making any application for the prior consent or approval of any Official Body or any other Person to the exercise by the Agent on behalf of itself and/or the Lenders or any such rights relating to all or any of the Collateral. Furthermore, because each Debtor agrees that the remedies at law, of the Agent on behalf of itself and/or the Lenders, for failure of such Debtor to comply with this Subsection (c) would be inadequate, and that any such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, each Debtor agrees that this Subsection (c) may be specifically enforced.

(d) The Agent may request, without limiting the rights and remedies of the Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders otherwise provided hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, that each Debtor do any of the following: (i) give the Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders specific assignments of the accounts receivable of such Debtor after such accounts receivable come into existence, and schedules of such accounts receivable, the form and content of such assignment and schedules to be satisfactory to Agent; and (ii) in order to better secure the Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders, to the extent permitted by Law, enter into such lockbox agreements and establish such lockbox accounts as the agent may require, all at the sole expense of such Debtor and shall direct all payments from all payors due to such Debtor, to such lockbox accounts.

12. The lien on and security interest in each Debtor’s Collateral granted to and created in favor of the Agent by this Agreement shall be for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and any IRH Provider. Each of the rights, privileges, and remedies provided to the Agent hereunder or otherwise by Law with respect to any Debtor’s Collateral shall be exercised by the Agent only for its own benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, and any of such Debtor’s Collateral or proceeds thereof held or realized upon at any time by the Agent shall be applied as set forth in Section 8.2.5 [Application of Proceeds] of the Credit Agreement. Each Debtor shall remain liable to the Agent and the Lenders and any IRH Provider for and shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of itself and the Lenders and any IRH Provider any deficiency which may remain after such sale or collection.

13. If the Agent repossesses or seeks to repossess any of the Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof because of the occurrence of an Event of Default, then to the extent it is commercially reasonable for the Agent to store any Collateral on any of any Debtor’s premises, each Debtor hereby agrees to lease to the Agent on a month-to-month tenancy for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days at the Agent’s election, at a rental of One Dollar ($1.00) per month, the premises on which the Collateral is located, provided it is located on premises owned or leased by such Debtor.

14. Upon indefeasible payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the expiration of all Commitments and Letters of Credit, and termination of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, and the Agent shall thereupon promptly return to a Debtor such of the Collateral and such other documents delivered by such Debtor

 

- 11 -


hereunder as may then be in the Agent’s possession, subject to the rights of third parties. Until such time, however, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

15. No failure or delay on the part of the Agent in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege of the Agent hereunder; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No waiver of a single Event of Default shall be deemed a waiver of a subsequent Event of Default. All waivers under this Agreement must be in writing. The rights and remedies of the Agent under this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any rights or remedies which it may otherwise have, and the Agent may enforce any one or more remedies hereunder successively or concurrently at its option.

16. All notices, statements, requests and demands given to or made upon any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be given or made as provided in Section 10.5 [Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication] of the Credit Agreement.

17. Each Debtor agrees that as of the date hereof, all information contained on the Security Interest Data Schedule attached hereto as Schedule A is accurate and complete and contains no omission or misrepresentation. Each Debtor shall promptly notify the Agent of any changes in the information set forth thereon.

18. Each Debtor acknowledges that the provisions hereof giving the Agent rights of access to books, records and information concerning the Collateral and such Debtor’s operations and providing the Agent access, at reasonable times and upon one (1) day prior notice, to such Debtor’s premises are intended to afford the Agent with immediate access to current information concerning such Debtor and its activities, including, without limitation, the value, nature and location of the Collateral so that the Agent can, among other things, make an appropriate determination after the occurrence of an Event of Default, whether and when to exercise its other remedies hereunder and at Law, including, without limitation, instituting a replevin action should any Debtor refuse to turn over any Collateral to the Agent. Each Debtor further acknowledges that should such Debtor at any time fail to promptly provide such information and access to the Agent, each Debtor acknowledges that the Agent would have no adequate remedy at Law to promptly obtain the same. Each Debtor agrees that the provisions hereof may be specifically enforced by the Agent and waives any claim or defense in any such action or proceeding that the Agent has an adequate remedy at Law.

19. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and each Debtor and each of its respective successors and assigns, except that no Debtor may assign or transfer such Debtor’s obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

1. The Landlord hereby consents to the security interests and liens of the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, and its successors and assigns in the Collateral located on, at or about the Premises. This waiver shall apply to any of the Collateral which is already located on, at or about or affixed to the Premises or may hereafter be located on, at or about or affixed to the Premises.

2. The Landlord hereby waives and releases in favor of the Agent and agrees that the Agent’s liens and security interests in the Collateral shall be prior and superior to (a) any and all rights of distraint, levy and execution, and marshalling of assets which the Landlord may now or hereafter have against the Collateral, (b) any and all liens and security interests which the Landlord may now or hereafter have on the Collateral, and (c) and any and all other claims of every nature whatsoever which the Landlord may now or hereafter have on or against the Collateral for any rent or other sums due or to become due to the Landlord by the Tenant under the provisions of the Lease or otherwise.

3. The Agent may remove the Collateral from the Premises whenever the Agent deems it necessary to do so to protect their interest, and without liability or accountability, with the exception of actual damages caused by Agent or its subcontractors, representatives, designees


or agents during the removal of any Collateral, to the Landlord therefor, and the Landlord hereby irrevocably grants to the Agent the right of entry to the Premises to remove any of the Collateral at any reasonable time or times and upon [              ] days prior notice.

4. In the event the Tenant defaults under the Lease and is evicted by the Landlord or in the event that the Tenant abandons the Premises, the Landlord shall send written notice to the Agent as provided in Section 5 below. Following receipt of such notice, the Agent shall have the right, by sending notice to the Landlord, to keep and store any portion of the Collateral located at the Premises at or about the date the Tenant loses possession of the Premises on the Premises for a period, determined by the Agent, of up to ninety (90) days, counting from the date the Tenant loses possession of the Premises on a month to month basis, provided the Agent pay rent to the Landlord for each month at the monthly rent provided for in the Lease. The Agent may conduct one or more auction sales of the Collateral at the Premises at any time during which the Tenant is in possession of the Premises or during the period the Agent is using the Premises for storage of the Collateral.

5. The Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Agent in writing of any default by the Tenant under the provisions of the Lease. Any such notice shall be sent to the Agent at The PNC Financial Services Group, 2 Hopkins Plaza, 21st Floor, Baltimore, Maryland 21201, Attention: Mr. John E. Hehir, Senior Vice President, Corporate Banking.

6. The Landlord shall notify any purchaser of the Premises and any mortgagee or any other holder of any lien, security interest or encumbrance on the Premises of the existence of this Agreement.

7. The Landlord hereby certifies that the Landlord has full power and authority to execute this Agreement and that it has legal title to the Premises.

8. This Agreement shall continue in effect during the term of the Credit Agreement and any extensions, renewals, refinancings or modifications thereof and any substitutions therefor, shall be binding upon the successors, assigns and transferees of the Landlord, and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns. The Landlord hereby waives notice of the Agent’s and the Lenders’ acceptance of and reliance on this Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Amended and Restated 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “ Plan ”), attached hereto as Attachment A or otherwise delivered or made available to Grantee, to promote the interests of the Company and its stockholders by providing the Company’s key employees and others with an appropriate incentive to encourage them to continue in the employ of the Company and to improve the growth and profitability of the Company; and

WHEREAS, the Plan provides for the Grant to Grantees in the Plan of restricted share units for shares of Stock of the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Investment . The Grantee represents that the Restricted Stock Units (as defined herein) are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward the distribution thereof.

2. Grant of Restricted Stock Units . Pursuant to, and subject to, the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee an award of Restricted Stock Units for                  shares of Stock of the Company (collectively, the “ Restricted Stock Units ”). The Purchase Price for the Restricted Stock Units shall be paid by the Grantee’s services to the Company.

3. Grant Date . The Grant Date of the Restricted Stock Units hereby granted is                          ,          .

4. Incorporation of the Plan . All terms, conditions and restrictions of the Plan are incorporated herein and made part hereof as if stated herein. If there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as interpreted by the Board, or a Committee thereof, shall govern. Unless otherwise indicated herein, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Plan.

5. Vesting and Delivery Date . The Restricted Stock Units shall vest as follows provided the Grantee remains employed by the Company on each such date:

(a) One-third of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest if the combined Operating Income for the Company for 2012 and 2013 is equal to or greater than $          million but less than $          million, with 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2014 and 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2015; OR

(b) Two-thirds of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest if the combined Operating Income for the Company for 2012 and 2013 is equal to or greater than $          million but less than $          million, with 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2014 and 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2015; OR

(c) All of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest if the combined Operating Income for the Company for 2012 and 2013 is equal to or greater than $          million, with 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2014 and 50% of such number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on February 15, 2015.


As used in this Section 5, the term “Operating Income” shall mean the Company’s income from operations as reported in the Company’s audited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles excluding the impact of any generally accepted accounting principle changes implemented after the date hereof.

6. Forfeiture . Subject to the provisions of the Plan and Section 5 of this Agreement, with respect to the Restricted Stock Units which have not become vested on the date the Grantee’s employment is terminated, the Award of Restricted Stock Units shall expire and such unvested Restricted Stock Units shall immediately be forfeited on such date.

8. No Shareholder Right s. Grantee does not have any rights of a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Stock Units. No dividend equivalents will be earned or paid with regard to the Restricted Stock Units.

9. Delays or Omissions . No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any party hereto upon any breach or default of any party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach or default thereafter occurring nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party or any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.
