Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 19, 2017, Four Corners Property Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiary, Four Corners Operating Partnership, LP (the “Operating Partnership”) entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with the various purchasers named therein (the “Purchasers”) in connection with a private placement of senior unsecured notes. Under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Operating Partnership will sell to the Purchasers $125,000,000 of senior unsecured notes comprised of (i) 4.68% Series A Senior Guaranteed Notes due June 7, 2024 in an aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000 (the “Series A Notes”) and (ii) 4.93% Series B Senior Guaranteed Notes due June 7, 2027 in an aggregate principal amount of $75,000,000 (the “Series B Notes,” and, together with the Series A Notes, the “Notes”). The closing and funding of the Notes is expected to occur on or about June 7, 2017, subject to customary closing conditions.

Accrued interest on the Notes at the fixed rate of 4.68% on the Series A Notes and 4.93% on the Series B Notes will be payable semiannually on the seventh day of June and December in each year until maturity. The Operating Partnership may prepay at any time all or part of the outstanding principal amount of Notes (in an amount not less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment), subject to the payment of accrued but unpaid interest and a make-whole amount that is calculated by discounting the value of the remaining scheduled interest payments that would otherwise be payable through the scheduled maturity date of the applicable Notes on the principal amount being prepaid.

The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Operating Partnership and will rank equal in right to payment with all other senior unsecured indebtedness of the Operating Partnership. Under the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Operating Partnership is permitted to use the proceeds from the sale of the Notes to refinance existing indebtedness and for general corporate purposes.

Under the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Notes will have the same guarantors as that certain Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement dated November 9, 2015 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the Operating Partnership, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders and other agents party thereto and, subject to certain exceptions, the Operating Partnership is required to add any guarantors under any future facilities involving debt commitments or obligations in the amount of $100,000,000 or more. Guarantees provided by the subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership under the Existing Credit Agreement will be released concurrently with the funding of the Notes, and as a result no subsidiary guarantees will exist in connection with the Note Purchase Agreement. The Company will continue to guarantee obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement, and will likewise guarantee obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement.

The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary financial covenants, including a total leverage ratio, a mortgage-secured leverage ratio, a secured recourse leverage ratio, a fixed charge coverage ratio, a minimum net worth requirement, an unhedged floating rate debt ratio, an unencumbered leverage ratio and an unencumbered interest coverage ratio. The Note Purchase Agreement also contains restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Operating Partnership, the Company and their subsidiaries to enter into transactions with affiliates, merge, consolidate, create liens or make certain restricted payments. Such financial and restrictive covenants are substantially similar to the corresponding covenants contained in the Existing Credit Agreement. In addition, the Note Purchase Agreement includes provisions providing that certain of such covenants will be automatically amended in the Note Purchase Agreement to conform to certain amendments that may from time to time be implemented to corresponding covenants under the Existing Credit Agreement.

The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary events of default, including payment defaults, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness, breaches of covenants and bankruptcy events. In the case of an event of default, the Purchasers may, among other remedies, accelerate the payment of all obligations.

The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or any other jurisdiction absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the applicable securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction. The Operating Partnership offered and sold the Notes in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.


The above summary of the Note Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note Purchase Agreement. A copy of the Note Purchase Agreement, including the forms of the Notes, is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

-21-


Four Corners Operating Partnership, LP   Note Purchase Agreement

 

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (x) 0.50% plus (y) the yield to maturity implied by the “Ask Yield(s)” reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (i) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (ii) interpolating linearly between the “Ask Yield(s)” Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (x) 0.50% plus (y) the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year

 

-22-


Four Corners Operating Partnership, LP   Note Purchase Agreement

 

comprised of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 12.1.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

Section  8.7. Change of Control Prepayment Offer . (a) Promptly upon becoming aware that a Change of Control will occur or has occurred (and in any event not later than 10 Business Days thereafter), the Company shall give written notice (the Change of Control Notice ) of such fact to each holder of the Notes. The Change of Control Notice shall (i) describe the facts and circumstances of such Change of Control in reasonable detail, (ii) refer to this Section 8.7 and the rights of the holders hereunder and (iii) contain an offer by the Company to prepay the entire unpaid principal amount of Notes held by each holder at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes at par (without any premium, penalty or Make-Whole Amount of any kind), together with interest accrued thereon to the prepayment date selected by the Company, which prepayment shall be on a date specified in the Change of Control Notice, which date shall be a Business Day not less than 20 nor more than 60 days after such Change of Control Notice is given should any agreement to the contrary not be reached among the Company and each of the holders of the Notes.

(b) A holder of Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.7 by causing a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company not more than 15 days after the date of the written offer notice referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 8.7. A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder.

(c) On the prepayment date specified in the Change of Control Notice, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes held by each holder of Notes which has accepted such prepayment offer, together with interest accrued thereon to the prepayment date (but without any premium, penalty or Make-Whole Amount of any kind), shall become due and payable.

(d) For purposes of this Section 8.7 a “ Change of Control ” means (a) for any reason whatsoever any “person” or “group” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules of the SEC thereunder as in effect at the Closing) shall beneficially own a percentage of the then outstanding Equity Interests of the Parent having the

Any consent given pursuant to this Section 17 or any other Financing Agreement by a holder of a Note that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Note to (i) the Company, the Parent, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Affiliate or (ii) any other Person in connection with, or in anticipation of, such other Person acquiring, making a tender offer for or merging with the Company, the Parent and/or any of their Affiliates in connection with such consent, shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other holders of Notes that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder.

Section  17.3. Binding Effect, etc . Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 or any other Financing Agreement applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company, the Parent and any Subsidiary Guarantor and the Parent Guarantor without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company, the Parent, a Subsidiary Guarantor and any holder of a Note and no delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note or other Financing Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note.

S ECTION  20. C ONFIDENTIAL I NFORMATION .

For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company, the Parent or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company, the Parent or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) its auditors, financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 20), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any Security of the Company, the Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary Guarantor (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes, this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company or the Parent in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company or the Parent embodying this Section 20.

In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information relating to the Parent or its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, any Purchaser or holder of a Note is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through IntraLinks, another secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which is different from this Section 20, this Section 20 shall not be amended thereby

 

-48-


Four Corners Operating Partnership, LP   Note Purchase Agreement

 

and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and the Company or the Parent, as applicable, this Section 20 shall supersede any such other confidentiality undertaking unless expressly agreed in such confidentiality undertaking by specific reference to this Section 20.

S ECTION  21. S UBSTITUTION OF P URCHASER .

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser’s Affiliates (a “Substitute Purchaser” ) as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser, shall contain such Substitute Purchaser’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

Section 22. Miscellaneous.

Section  22.1. Successors and Assigns . All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not, except that, subject to Section 10.2, neither the Company nor the Parent may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement to which it is a party without the prior written consent of each holder. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section  22.2. Payments and Reporting Due on Non-Business Days . Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) except as set forth in clause (y), any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; (y) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount on any Note (including principal due on the Maturity Date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day and (z) any reporting or notices under this Agreement that are due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section  22.3. Accounting Terms . (a) All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company notifies the holders of Notes that, in the Company’s reasonable opinion, or if the Required Holders notify the Company that, in the Required Holders’ reasonable opinion, as a result of changes in GAAP from time to time ( Subsequent Changes ), any of the covenants contained in Sections 10.6 or any of the defined terms used therein, no longer apply as intended such that such covenants are more or less restrictive to the Company than are such covenants immediately prior to giving effect to such Subsequent Changes, the Company and the holders of Notes shall negotiate in good faith to reset or amend such covenants or defined terms, or establish alternative covenants or defined terms, so as to negate such Subsequent Changes. Until the Company and the Required Holders so agree to reset, amend or establish alternative covenants or defined terms, the covenants contained in Sections 10.6, together with the relevant defined terms, shall continue to apply and compliance therewith shall be determined assuming that the Subsequent Changes shall not have occurred ( Static GAAP ). During any period that compliance with any covenants shall be determined pursuant to Static GAAP, the Company shall include relevant reconciliations in reasonable detail between GAAP and Static GAAP with respect to the applicable covenant compliance calculations contained in each certificate of a Senior Financial Officer delivered pursuant to Section 7.2 during such period.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Agreement (including Section 9, Section 10 and the definition of “Indebtedness” ), any election by the Company to measure any financial liability using fair value (as permitted by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 825-10-25 Fair Value Option, International Accounting Standard 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made.

Section  22.4. Severability . Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section  22.5. Construction, etc . Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial . (a) Each of the Company and the Parent irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Company and the Parent irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b) Each of the Company and the Parent agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that a final judgment in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 22.8(a) brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon it subject to rights of appeal, as the case may be, and may be enforced in the courts of the United States of America or the State of New York (or any other courts to the jurisdiction of which it or any of its assets is or may be subject) by a suit upon such judgment.

(e) T HE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS A GREEMENT , THE N OTES OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH .

AGREEMENT

Section 1. Guaranty of Obligations .

Indebtedness ”) and (ii) the full, complete, and punctual observance, performance, and satisfaction of all of the obligations, duties, covenants, and agreements of the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes and all enforcement costs associated therewith (the “ Obligations ” and together with the Guaranteed Indebtedness, collectively, the “ Guaranteed Obligations ”). Each of the Parent Guarantors hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally covenants and agrees that it is liable, jointly and severally, for the Guaranteed Obligations as a primary obligor, and that each Parent Guarantor shall fully perform each and every term and provision hereof. This Guaranty is an absolute, present and continuing guaranty of payment and performance in full and not solely a guaranty of collection. No holder shall be required to exhaust any right or remedy or take any action against the Company or any other person or entity. Upon the occurrence of any Bankruptcy Event with respect to the Parent or the Company or any Event of Default under clause (g), (h) or (i) of Section 11 of the Note Purchase Agreement, notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between any holder and the Company with respect to the existence of such Bankruptcy Event or such Event of Default, the Guaranteed Obligations will immediately and automatically (without the requirement of the giving of any notice) become due and payable notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or vitiate any declaration or notice with respect to the Company, the Parent or any other obligor under the Financing Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 11 of the Note Purchase Agreement (other than under clause (g), (h) or (i) of Section 11 of the Note Purchase Agreement), notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between any holder and the Company with respect to the existence of such Event of Default, then, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or vitiate any declaration or notice with respect to the Company, the Parent or any other obligor under the Financing Agreements, in the event of a declaration, attempted declaration, notice or attempted notice by any holder, the Guaranteed Obligations will immediately become due and payable by each of the Parent Guarantors pursuant to this Guaranty.

In furtherance of that intention, the liabilities of each Parent Guarantor under this Guaranty (the “ Liabilities ”) shall be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Parent Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Person with respect to the Liabilities, result in the Liabilities of such Parent Guarantor under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. For purposes hereof, “Bankruptcy Law” means the Bankruptcy Code (as defined below), or any similar federal, state or foreign law for the relief of debtors. This paragraph with respect to the maximum liability of each Parent Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the holders, to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and neither a Parent Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this paragraph with respect to such maximum liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of a Parent Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Parent Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the maximum liability of such Parent Guarantor without impairing this Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the holders hereunder; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase such Parent Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its maximum liability.

If any Parent Guarantor makes payment to any holder, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and all the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full and the Financing Agreements are no longer in effect, such holder shall, at such Parent Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Parent Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Parent Guarantor of the interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment.

Section 7. Subordination . Without limiting any holder’s rights under any other agreement, any liabilities owed by the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement to a Guarantor in connection with any extension of credit or financial accommodation by such Guarantor to or for the account of the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement, including but not limited to interest accruing at the agreed contract rate after the commencement of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, are hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations, and such liabilities of the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement to such Guarantor, if any holder so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor as trustee for the holders and shall be paid over to the holders, on account of the Guaranteed Obligations but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of any Parent Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

Section 8. Payments .

Each Parent Guarantor hereby agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Guaranty and not in limitation of any other right which any holder or any other Person may have against such Parent Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity,

by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code), such Parent Guarantor shall forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the holders an amount equal to the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid (including interest which, but for the filing of a petition in any insolvency proceeding with respect to the Company, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against the Company for such interest in any such insolvency proceeding). Each Parent Guarantor shall make each payment hereunder, unconditionally in full without set-off, counterclaim or other defense, on the day when due in dollars and in same day or immediately available funds, to the holders at the addresses for payment as set forth in Schedule A to the Note Purchase Agreement or such other address for payment as may be specified in writing by such holder.

(d) each representation and warranty in the Note Purchase Agreement made by the Company and the Parent with respect to each Parent Guarantor is true and correct in all material respects (other than any representation or warranty qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, which shall be true and correct in all respects); and

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each holder may assign, sell participations in or otherwise transfer its rights under the Financing Agreements to any other Person in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, and the other person or entity shall then become vested with all the rights granted to such holder, as applicable, in this Guaranty or otherwise.

The Purchasers and such holders are collectively called the “ holders ” and individually a “ holder ”. The holders, together with the Subsidiary Guarantors, are collectively, the “ Parties ” and individually, a “ Party ”. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Note Purchase Agreement defined below. This Guaranty is the “Subsidiary Guaranty” referred to in the Note Purchase Agreement.

RECITALS

Four Corners Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “ Company ”), Four Corners Property Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “ Parent ”), and the Purchasers have entered into that certain Note Purchase Agreement dated as of April 19, 2017 (as the same may be further amended, modified, renewed or extended from time to time, the “ Note Purchase Agreement ”), pursuant to which the Company has issued (a) $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.68% Senior Guaranteed Notes, Series A, due June 7, 2024 (the “ Series A Notes ”) and (b) $75,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.93% Senior Guaranteed Notes, Series B, due June 7, 2027 (the “ Series B Notes ” and together with the Series A Notes, the “ Notes ”);

B. The Subsidiary Guarantors wish to unconditionally guarantee payment and performance to the Purchasers of the Obligations (as defined below); and

C. Each Subsidiary Guarantor is a Subsidiary (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor directly benefits from the Purchaser’s purchasing the Notes from the Company.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, as an inducement to the Purchasers to purchase the Notes and in consideration of the foregoing premises, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees, for the benefit of each of the holders, as follows:

Section 1. Guaranty of Obligations .

(a) Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally, and jointly and severally, guarantees to the holders (i) the full and prompt payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes and Make-Whole Amount, if any, when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, and the prompt payment of all sums that may now be or may hereafter become due and owing under

 

S CHEDULE 3

(to Note Purchase Agreement)


the Financing Agreements and all enforcement costs associated therewith (the “ Guaranteed Indebtedness ”) and (ii) the full, complete, and punctual observance, performance, and satisfaction of all of the obligations, duties, covenants, and agreements of the Company and the Parent under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes and all enforcement costs associated therewith (the “ Obligations ” and together with the Guaranteed Indebtedness collectively, the “ Guaranteed Obligations ”). Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally covenants and agrees that it is liable, jointly and severally, for the Guaranteed Obligations as a primary obligor, and that each Subsidiary Guarantor shall fully perform each and every term and provision hereof. This Guaranty is an absolute, present and continuing guaranty of payment and performance in full and not solely a guaranty of collection. No holder shall be required to exhaust any right or remedy or take any action against the Company or any other person or entity. Upon the occurrence of any Bankruptcy Event with respect to the Parent or the Company or any Event of Default under clause (g), (h) or (i) of Section 11 of the Note Purchase Agreement, notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between any holder and the Company with respect to the existence of such Bankruptcy Event or such Event of Default, the Guaranteed Obligations will immediately and automatically (without the requirement of the giving of any notice) become due and payable notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or vitiate any declaration or notice with respect to the Company, the Parent or any other obligor under the Financing Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 11 of the Note Purchase Agreement (other than under clause (g), (h) or (i) of Section 11 of the Note Purchase Agreement), notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between any holder and the Company with respect to the existence of such Event of Default, then, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or vitiate any declaration or notice with respect to the Company, the Parent or any other obligor under the Financing Agreements, in the event of a declaration, attempted declaration, notice or attempted notice by any holder, the Guaranteed Obligations will immediately become due and payable by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to this Guaranty.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, and each holder, hereby confirms that the Parties intend that this Guaranty not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Law (as defined below), the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal, state or foreign law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty. In furtherance of that intention, the liabilities of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty (the “ Liabilities ”) shall be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Person with respect to the Liabilities, result in the Liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. For purposes hereof, “Bankruptcy Law” means the Bankruptcy Code (as defined below), or any similar federal, state or foreign law for the relief of debtors. This paragraph with respect to the maximum liability of each Subsidiary Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the holders, to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and neither a Subsidiary Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this paragraph with respect to such maximum liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of a Subsidiary

 

2


Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the maximum liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor without impairing this Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the holders hereunder; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its maximum liability.

Section 2. Guaranty Absolute .

The liability of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty is absolute, irrevocable and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any of the terms of the Notes or the Note Purchase Agreement, including any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon; (ii) any release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, or failure to act by the holders with respect to, or any impairment of any Lien on, any other guaranty or support document, or any exchange, release or non-perfection of, or failure to act by the holders with respect to, any collateral securing payment or performance, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any present or future law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction (whether of right or in fact) or of any agency thereof purporting to reduce, amend, restructure or otherwise affect any term of the Guaranteed Obligations or any of the Notes or the Note Purchase Agreement; (iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of the Company, the Parent or any other obligor under any Financing Agreements; (v) without being limited by the foregoing, any lack of validity or enforceability of any Financing Agreements; and (vi) any other setoff, recoupment, defense or counterclaim whatsoever (in any case, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory) with respect to any Financing Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby which might constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of, the Company, the Parent or a Guarantor, other than the Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired or affected by, nor shall such Subsidiary Guarantor be exonerated or discharged by, any of the following events:

(i) any insolvency proceeding with respect to the Company, the Parent, any Guarantor, any other party to a Financing Agreement or any other Person;

(ii) any limitation, discharge, or cessation of the liability of the Company, the Parent, any Guarantor, any other party to a Financing Agreement or any other Person for any Guaranteed Obligations due to any statute, regulation or rule of law, or any invalidity or unenforceability in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any Financing Agreements;

(iv) any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of any holder’s interests in and rights under this Guaranty or the other Financing Agreements, including the right to receive payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of a holder’s interests in and to any of the collateral specified in any pledge agreement;

(v) any claim, defense, counterclaim or setoff, other than that of prior performance of the Obligations or Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, that the Company, the Parent, any Guarantor, any other party to a Financing Agreement or other Person may have or assert, including any defense of incapacity or lack of corporate or other authority to execute any of the Financing Agreements;

(vi) any holder’s amendment, modification, renewal, extension, cancellation or surrender of any Financing Agreement, any Guaranteed Obligations, any collateral securing payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any holder’s exchange, release, or waiver of any collateral securing the payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(vii) any holder’s exercise or non-exercise of any power, right or remedy with respect to any of any collateral securing payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any holder’s compromise, release, settlement or waiver with or of the Company, the Parent, any Guarantor, any other party to a Financing Agreement or any other Person;

(viii) any holder’s vote, claim, distribution, election, acceptance, action or inaction in any insolvency proceeding related to the Guaranteed Obligations;

(ix) any impairment or invalidity of any of any collateral securing payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any failure to perfect any of the holder’s Liens thereon or therein; and

(x) any other guaranty, whether by such Guarantor or any other Person, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Company to the holders.

(c) The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder are independent of and separate from the obligations of the Company, the Parent and any other party to a Financing Agreement and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, a separate action or actions may be brought against any Guarantor, whether or not the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder to the extent set forth herein, notwithstanding any act, omission or thing which might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor , until the termination of this Guaranty under Section 17 hereof. In addition, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall not have any right to require any holder or other party to a Financing Agreement to obtain or disclose any information with respect to: (i) the financial condition or character of any other party to a Financing Agreement or the ability

Section 5. Continuing Guaranty; Reinstatement . This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and agreement of subordination relating to any Guaranteed Obligations, including Guaranteed Obligations which may exist continuously or which may arise from time to time under successive transactions, and each Subsidiary Guarantor expressly acknowledges that this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that there may be periods in which no Guaranteed Obligations exist. This Guaranty shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor until this Guaranty is terminated pursuant to Section 17 hereof. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the holders on the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement or otherwise, all as though the payment had not been made; provided , however , that no such reinstatement shall occur if this Guaranty has terminated pursuant to Section 17(b) hereof.

Section 6. Subrogation . No Subsidiary Guarantor shall exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation, by any payment made under this Guaranty or otherwise, until all the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and the Financing Agreements are no longer in effect. If any amount is paid to a Subsidiary Guarantor on account of subrogation rights under this Guaranty at any time when all the Guaranteed Obligations have not been paid in full, the amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the holders and shall be promptly paid to the holders, to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured or absolute or contingent, in accordance with the terms of the Financing Agreements. If any Subsidiary Guarantor makes payment to any holder, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and all the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full and the Financing Agreements are no longer in effect, such holder shall, at such Subsidiary Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Subsidiary Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Subsidiary Guarantor of the interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment.

Section 7. Subordination . Without limiting any holder’s rights under any other agreement, any liabilities owed by the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement to a Guarantor in connection with any extension of credit or financial accommodation by such Guarantor to or for the account of the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement, including but not limited to interest accruing at the agreed contract rate after the commencement of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, are hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations, and such liabilities of the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement to such Guarantor, if any holder so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor as trustee for the holders and shall be paid over to the holders, on account of the Guaranteed Obligations but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall make each payment hereunder, unconditionally in full without set-off, counterclaim or other defense, on the day when due in dollars and in same day or immediately available funds, to the holders at the addresses for payment as set forth in Schedule A to the Note Purchase Agreement or such other address for payment as may be specified in writing by such holder.

7


(b) in executing and delivering this Guaranty, such Subsidiary Guarantor has (i) without reliance on any holder or any information received from any holder and based upon such documents and information it deems appropriate, made an independent investigation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Company’s, the Parent’s and any other party to a Financing Agreement’s business, assets, operations, prospects and condition, financial or otherwise, and any circumstances which may bear upon such transactions, the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement or the obligations and risks undertaken herein with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) adequate means to obtain from the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement on a continuing basis information concerning the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement; (iii) full and complete access to the Financing Agreements and any other documents executed in connection with the Financing Agreements; and (iv) not relied and will not rely upon any representations or warranties of any holder not embodied herein or any acts heretofore or hereafter taken by any holder (including but not limited to any review by any holder of the affairs of the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement);

(c) each Subsidiary Guarantor has received at least “reasonably equivalent value” (as such phrase is used in Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and in comparable provisions of other applicable law) and more than sufficient consideration to support its obligations hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and under any of the Financing Agreements to which it is a party;

(d) each representation and warranty in the Note Purchase Agreement made by the Company and the Parent with respect to each Subsidiary Guarantor is true and correct in all material respects (other than any representation or warranty qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, which shall be true and correct in all respects); and

(e) upon the execution and delivery hereof, such Subsidiary Guarantor will be solvent, will be able to pay its debts as they mature and has capital sufficient to carry on its business.    

Section 10. Covenants .

(a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor will perform and comply with all covenants applicable to such Subsidiary Guarantor, or which the Company, the Parent or any other party to a Financing Agreement is required to cause such Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with, under the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements as if the same were more fully set forth herein.

8


(c) Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall maintain and preserve its legal existence, its rights to transact business and all other rights, franchises and privileges necessary or desirable in the normal course of its business and operations and the ownership of its properties, except (other than the maintenance of legal existence of such Subsidiary Guarantor) as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or as may otherwise be permitted under the Note Purchase Agreement.

(d) Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall maintain all authorizations, consents, approvals, licenses, exemptions of, or filings or registrations with, any Governmental Authority, or approvals or consents of any other Person, required in connection with this Guaranty or any other Financing Agreement to which it is a party, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. “Material Adverse Effect” means a material adverse effect on (a) the business, operations, affairs, financial condition, assets or properties of such Subsidiary Guarantor and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or (b) the ability of such Subsidiary Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty, or (c) the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty.

(e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, notarize and register at its own expense all such further agreements, instruments, certificates, documents and assurances and perform such acts as the Required Holders shall deem necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Guaranty and the other Financing Agreements to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party, and promptly provide the holders with evidence of the foregoing reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Required Holders.

Section 11. Remedies Generally . The remedies provided in this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 12. Setoff . If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each holder and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to setoff and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such holder or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Subsidiary Guarantor against any of and all the Guaranteed Obligations held by such holder, irrespective of whether or not such holder shall have made any demand under this Guaranty and although such Guaranteed Obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each holder under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such holder may have. Each holder shall notify the Company promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 13. Formalities . Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, default or nonpayment, protest, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty or incurrence of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any other formality with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations or this Guaranty.

Section 14. Amendments and Waivers . Except as otherwise provided in Section 1(b) of this Guaranty, this Guaranty may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of each Subsidiary Guarantor and the Required Holders, except that no amendment or waiver which results in the limitation of the liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (except to the extent provided in Section 1(b) and Section 17 of this Guaranty) will be effective as to any holder unless consented to by such holder in writing. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on the part of any holder to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

Section 15. Expenses .

Section 16. Assignment; Benefits of Guaranty . This Guaranty shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of each Subsidiary Guarantor, the holders and their respective successors and assigns; provided that no Subsidiary Guarantor may assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Guaranty without the prior written consent of each holder (and any attempted such assignment or transfer by any Subsidiary Guarantor without such consent shall be null and void) (it being understood that a merger or consolidation permitted by the Note Purchase Agreement will not constitute an assignment, transfer or delegation and does not require the consent of the holders). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each holder may assign, sell participations in or otherwise transfer its rights under the Financing Agreements to any other Person in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, and the other person or entity shall then become vested with all the rights granted to such holder, as applicable, in this Guaranty or otherwise. This Guaranty is entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the holders and their respective successors and assigns, and no other Person (other than any Related Party specified herein) shall be a direct or indirect beneficiary of, or shall have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Guaranty.

Section 17. Termination .

At the request and sole expense of any Subsidiary Guarantor following any such termination or release, the holders shall take all such action reasonably requested by such Subsidiary Guarantor to evidence the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under this Guaranty.

Section 18. Captions . The headings and captions in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this Guaranty.

Nothing in this Guaranty shall affect any right that any holder may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty against any Subsidiary Guarantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty in any court referred to in subsection (b) above. Each Subsidiary Guarantor    hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each Subsidiary Guarantor irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices herein. Nothing in this Guaranty will affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 21. Invalid Provisions . If any provision of this Guaranty is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Guaranty, such provision shall be fully severable and this Guaranty shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Guaranty, and the remaining provisions of this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Guaranty, unless such continued effectiveness of this Guaranty, as modified, would be contrary to the basic understandings and intentions of the Parties as expressed herein.

Section 22. ENTIRETY . THIS GUARANTY AND THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS EXECUTED BY ANY SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR EMBODY THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF SUCH SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR AND THE HOLDERS WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND SUPERSEDES ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF. THIS GUARANTY AND THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS EXECUTED BY EACH SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR ARE INTENDED BY EACH SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR AND THE HOLDERS AS A FINAL AND COMPLETE EXPRESSION OF THE TERMS HEREOF AND THEREOF, AND NO COURSE OF DEALING AMONG ANY SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR AND THE HOLDERS, NO COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, NO TRADE PRACTICES, AND NO EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OR OTHER EXTRINSIC EVIDENCE OF ANY NATURE SHALL BE USED TO CONTRADICT, VARY, SUPPLEMENT OR MODIFY ANY TERM OF THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENT EXECUTED BY ANY SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN ANY SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR AND THE HOLDERS.
