(1) General Informatio n

 

Description of Business

 

Genesis Healthcare, Inc. is a healthcare services company that, through its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company or Genesis), owns and operates skilled nursing facilities, assisted/senior living facilities and a rehabilitation therapy business.  The Company has an administrative services company that provides a full complement of administrative and consultative services that allows its affiliated operators and third-party operators with whom the Company contracts to better focus on delivery of healthcare services. At March 31, 2018, the Company provides inpatient services through 469 skilled nursing, assisted/senior living and behavioral health centers located in 30 states.  Revenues of the Company’s owned, leased and otherwise consolidated inpatient businesses constitute approximately 86% of its revenues.

 

The Company provides a range of rehabilitation therapy services, including speech pathology, physical therapy, occupational therapy and respiratory therapy.  These services are provided by rehabilitation therapists and assistants employed or contracted at substantially all of the centers operated by the Company, as well as by contract to healthcare facilities operated by others.  The Company has expanded its delivery model for providing rehabilitation services to community-based and at-home settings, as well as internationally in China.  After the elimination of intercompany revenues, the rehabilitation therapy services business constitutes approximately 11% of the Company’s revenues.

 

The Company provides an array of other specialty medical services, including management services, physician services, staffing services, and other healthcare related services, which comprise the balance of the Company’s revenues.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP).  In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements include all necessary adjustments for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented.

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company presents noncontrolling interests within the stockholders’ deficit section of its consolidated balance sheets. The Company presents the amount of net loss attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. and net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in its consolidated statements of operations.

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all entities controlled by the Company through its ownership of a majority voting interest and the accounts of any variable interest entities (VIEs) where the Company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE's activities, or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns, or both. The Company assesses the requirements related to the consolidation of VIEs, including a qualitative assessment of power and economics that considers which entity has the power to direct the activities that “most significantly impact” the VIE's economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to, the VIE. The Company's composition of VIEs was not material at March 31, 2018.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all of the disclosures normally required by U.S. GAAP or those normally required in annual reports on Form 10-K. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on Form 10-K on March 16, 2018.

 

Certain prior year disclosure amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.  Restricted cash had previously been included in restricted cash and investments in marketable securities.  As a result of recently adopted accounting pronouncements, discussed below, restricted cash will be presented separately on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.  The

provision for losses on accounts receivable has been combined with other operating expenses and general and administrative costs, on the consolidated statement of operations.  See Note 4 – “ Net   Revenues and Accounts Receivable.

 

Financial Condition and Liquidity Considerations

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

In evaluating the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months following the date the Company’s financial statements were issued (May 10, 2018). Management considered the recent results of operations as well as the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and the Company’s conditional and unconditional obligations due before May 10, 2019.  Based upon such considerations, management determined that the Company is able to continue as a going concern for 12 months following the date of issuance of these financial statements (May 10, 2018).

 

The Company’s results of operations have been negatively impacted by the persistent pressure of healthcare reforms enacted in recent years.  This challenging operating environment has been most acute in the Company’s inpatient segment, but also has had a detrimental effect on the Company’s rehabilitation therapy segment and its customers.  In recent years, the Company has implemented a number of cost mitigation strategies to offset the negative financial implications of this challenging operating environment.  These strategies have been successful in recent years, however, the negative impact of continued reductions in skilled patient admissions, shortening lengths of stay, escalating wage inflation and professional liability losses, combined with the increased cost of capital through escalating lease payments accelerated in 2017. 

 

In response to these issues, the Company entered into a number of agreements, amendments and new financing facilities (the Restructuring Transactions) during the three months ended March 31, 2018.  See Note 3 – “ Significant Transactions and Events – Restructuring Transactions .”  In total, these agreements and amendments are estimated to reduce the Company’s annual cash fixed charges by approximately $62.0 million beginning January 1, 2018.  The new financing agreements provided $70.0 million of additional cash and borrowing availability, increasing the Company’s liquidity and financial flexibility.  In connection with the Restructuring Transactions, the Company entered into a new asset based lending facility agreement, replacing its prior revolving credit facilities (the Revolving Credit Facilities) and eliminating its forbearance agreement.  Also in connection with the Restructuring Transactions, the Company amended the financial covenants in all of its material loan agreements and all but two of its material master leases.  Financial covenants beginning in 2018 were amended to account for changes in the Company’s capital structure as a result of the Restructuring Transactions and to account for the current business climate.  The Company received waivers from the counterparties to two of its material master leases, for which agreements to amend financial covenants were not attained, with respect to compliance with financial covenants from March 31, 2018 through at least March 31, 2019. 

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all related amendments (ASC 606), which serves to supersede most existing revenue recognition guidance, including guidance specific to the healthcare industry. ASC 606 provides a principles-based framework for recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services and requires enhanced disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method.  There was no cumulative effect on the opening balance of retained earnings as a result of adopting the standard as of January 1, 2018.  Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. See Note 4 – “ Net   Revenues and Accounts Receivable.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASU 2016-01), which is intended to improve the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance requires equity investments be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values; eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value; and requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category.  The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2018.  The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (ASU 2016-15), which addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments should be presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2018.  Upon assessment of the cash flow issues subject to amendment, the adoption of  ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (230): Restricted Cash (ASU 2016-18), which requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows.  The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2018.  To better accommodate the adoption of  ASU 2016-18, the Company has elected to separately disclose restricted cash on its consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The adoption of  ASU 2016-18 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combination (805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business (ASU 2017-01), which provides guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2018.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-01 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which amended authoritative guidance on accounting for leases. The new provisions require that a lessee of operating leases recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The lease liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments, with the right-of-use asset based upon the lease liability. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance (or capital) leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the previous lease guidance, but with no explicit bright lines. As such, operating leases will result in straight-line rent expense similar to current practice. For short term leases (term of 12 months or less), a lessee is permitted to make an accounting election not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities, which would generally result in lease expense being recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and will require application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparable period presented. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2016-02 must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach, which includes a number of optional practical expedients. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position as a result of the recognition of the right-of-use assets and liabilities associated with operating leases. The Company is still evaluating the impact on its results of operations and does not expect the adoption of this standard to have an impact on liquidity.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income , which permits entities to reclassify the disproportionate income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Reform Act) on items within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings. These disproportionate income tax effect items are referred to as "stranded tax effects."  Amendments in this update only relate to the reclassification of the income tax effects of the Tax Reform Act.  Other accounting guidance that requires the effect of changes in tax laws or rates to be included in net income from continuing operations is not affected by this update.  ASU 2018-02 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 and should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Reform Act is recognized.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2018-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 .  The amendments in this update provide guidance on when to record and disclose provisional amounts for certain income tax effects of the Tax Reform Act.  The amendments also require any provisional amounts or subsequent adjustments to be included in net income from continuing operations.  Additionally, this ASU discusses required disclosures that an entity must make with regard to the Tax Reform Act.  This ASU is effective immediately as new information is available to adjust provisional amounts that were previously recorded.  The Company has adopted this standard and will continue to evaluate indicators that may give rise to a change in its tax provision as a result of the Tax Reform Act.

 

(2)   Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties

 

Revenue Sources

 

The Company receives revenues from Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, self-pay residents, other third-party payors and long-term care facilities that utilize its rehabilitation therapy and other services.  The Company’s inpatient services segment derives approximately 78% of its revenue from Medicare and various state Medicaid programs.  The following table depicts the Company’s inpatient services segment revenue by source for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

The sources and amounts of the Company’s revenues are determined by a number of factors, including licensed bed capacity and occupancy rates of inpatient facilities, the mix of patients and the rates of reimbursement among payors.  Likewise, payment for ancillary medical services, including services provided by the Company’s rehabilitation therapy services business, varies based upon the type of payor and payment methodologies.  Changes in the case mix of the patients as well as payor mix among Medicare, Medicaid and private pay can significantly affect the Company’s profitability.

 

It is not possible to quantify fully the effect of legislative changes, the interpretation or administration of such legislation or other governmental initiatives on the Company’s business and the business of the customers served by the Company’s rehabilitation therapy business.  The potential impact of reforms to the United States healthcare system, including potential material changes to the delivery of healthcare services and the reimbursement paid for such services by the government or other third party payors, is uncertain at this time.  Also, initiatives among managed care payors, conveners and referring acute care hospital systems to reduce lengths of stay and avoidable hospital admissions and to divert referrals to home health or other community-based care settings could have a continuing adverse impact on the Company’s business. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the impact of any future healthcare legislation, regulation or actions by participants in the health care continuum will not adversely affect the Company’s business.  There can be no assurance that payments under governmental and private third-party payor programs will be

10

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

 

timely, will remain at levels similar to present levels or will, in the future, be sufficient to cover the costs allocable to patients eligible for reimbursement pursuant to such programs.  The Company’s financial condition and results of operations are and will continue to be affected by the reimbursement process, which in the healthcare industry is complex and can involve lengthy delays between the time that revenue is recognized and the time that reimbursement amounts are settled.

 

Laws and regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs, and the Company’s business generally, are complex and are often subject to a number of ambiguities in their application and interpretation. The Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.  However, from time to time the Company and its affiliates are subject to pending or threatened lawsuits and investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing, some of which may be material or involve significant costs to resolve and/or defend, or may lead to other adverse effects on the Company and its affiliates including, but not limited to, fines, penalties and exclusion from participation in the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company is exposed to the credit risk of its third-party customers, many of whom are in similar lines of business as the Company and are exposed to the same systemic industry risks of operations as the Company, resulting in a concentration of risk.  These include organizations that utilize the Company’s rehabilitation services, staffing services and physician service offerings, engaged in similar business activities or having economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations, including those to the Company, to be similarly affected by changes in regulatory and systemic industry conditions. 

 

Management assesses its exposure to loss on accounts at the customer level.  The greatest concentration of risk exists in the Company’s rehabilitation services business where it has over 200 distinct customers, many being chain operators with more than one location.  The four largest customers of the Company’s rehabilitation services business comprise $58.1 million, approximately 52%, of the net outstanding contract receivables in the rehabilitation services business at March 31, 2018.  One customer, which is a related party of the Company, comprises $32.0 million, approximately 28%, of the net outstanding contract receivables in the rehabilitation services business at March 31, 2018.  See Note 16 – “Related Party Transactions.”    An adverse event impacting the solvency of several of these large customers resulting in their insolvency or other economic distress would have a material impact on the Company. 

 

The Company’s business is subject to a number of other known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which are discussed in Part II. Item 1A, “ Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, which was filed with the SEC on March 16, 2018, and in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, including the risk factors discussed herein in Part II. Item 1A.

 

Covenant Compliance

 

Should the Company fail to comply with its debt and lease covenants at a future measurement date, it could, absent necessary and timely waivers and/or amendments, be in default under certain of its existing debt and lease agreements. To the extent any cross-default provisions may apply, the default could have an even more significant impact on the Company’s financial position.

 

Although the Company is in compliance and projects to be in compliance with its material debt and lease covenants through June 30, 2019, the ongoing uncertainty related to the impact of healthcare reform initiatives may have an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to remain in compliance with its covenants. Such uncertainty includes changes in reimbursement patterns, patient admission patterns, bundled payment arrangements, as well as potential changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 currently being considered in Congress, among others.

 

There can be no assurance that the confluence of these and other factors will not impede the Company’s ability to meet its debt and lease covenants in the future.

(3)   Significant Transactions and Events

 

Restructuring Transactions

 

Overview

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, the Company entered into a number of agreements, amendments and new financing facilities further described below in an effort to strengthen significantly its capital structure.  In total, the Restructuring Transactions are estimated to reduce the Company’s annual cash fixed charges by approximately $62.0 million beginning in 2018 and provided $70.0 million of additional cash and borrowing availability, increasing the Company’s liquidity and financial flexibility.

 

In connection with the Restructuring Transactions, the Company entered into a new asset based lending facility agreement, replacing its prior Revolving Credit Facilities, expanding its term loan borrowings, amending its real estate loans with Welltower Inc. (Welltower) while refinancing some of those loan amounts through new real estate loans.  The new asset based lending facility agreement and real estate loans are financed through MidCap Funding IV Trust and MidCap Financial Trust (collectively, MidCap), respectively.  For further information on these debt refinancings, see Note 8 – “ Long-Term Debt .”  Also in connection with the Restructuring Transactions, the Company amended the financial covenants in all of its material loan agreements and all but two of its material master leases.  Financial covenants beginning in 2018 were amended to account for changes in the Company’s capital structure as a result of the Restructuring Transactions and to account for the current business climate. 

 

Welltower Master Lease Amendment

 

On February 21, 2018, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Welltower to amend the Welltower Master Lease (the Welltower Master Lease Amendment).  The Welltower Master Lease Amendment reduces the Company’s annual base rent payment by $35.0 million effective retroactively as of January 1, 2018, reduces the annual rent escalator from approximately 2.9% to 2.5% on April 1, 2018 and further reduces the annual rent escalator to 2.0% beginning January 1, 2019.  In addition, the Welltower Master Lease Amendment extends the initial term of the master lease by five years to January 31, 2037 and extends the renewal term of the master lease by five years to December 31, 2048.  The Welltower Master Lease Amendment also provides a potential upward rent reset, conditioned upon achievement of certain upside operating metrics, effective January 1, 2023.  If triggered, the incremental rent from the rent reset is capped at $35.0 million.

 

Omnibus Agreement

 

On February 21, 2018, the Company entered into an Omnibus Agreement with Welltower and Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (Omega), pursuant to which Welltower and Omega committed to provide up to $40.0 million in new term loans and amend the current term loan agreement to, among other things, accommodate a refinancing of the Company’s existing asset based credit facility, in each case subject to certain conditions, including the completion of a restructuring of certain of the Company’s other material debt and lease obligations. 

 

The Omnibus Agreement also provides that upon satisfying certain conditions, including raising new capital that is used to pay down certain indebtedness owed to Welltower and Omega, (a) $50.0 million of outstanding indebtedness owed to Welltower will be written off and (b) the Company may request conversion of not more than $50.0 million of the outstanding balance of the Company’s Welltower Real Estate Loans into equity.  If the proposed equity conversion would result in any adverse REIT qualification, status or compliance consequences to Welltower, then the debt that would otherwise be converted to equity shall instead be converted into a loan incurring paid in kind interest at 2% per annum compounded quarterly, with a term of ten years commencing on the date the applicable conditions precedent to the equity conversion have been satisfied.  Moreover, the Company agreed to support Welltower in connection with the sale of certain of Welltower’s interests in facilities covered by the Welltower Master Lease, including negotiating and entering into definitive new master lease agreements with third party buyers.

 

In connection with the Omnibus Agreement, the Company agreed to issue warrants to Welltower and Omega to purchase 900,000 shares and 600,000 shares, respectively, of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $1.33 per

12

share.  Issuance of the warrant to Welltower is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.  The warrants may be exercised at any time during the period commencing six months from the date of issuance and ending five years from the date of issuance. 

 

HUD Financings

 

In the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company completed the financing of one skilled nursing facility with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) insured loans.  The total loan amount of the financing was $10.9 million.  Some of the proceeds from the financing were used to retire a real estate loan of $9.9 million. See Note 8 – “ Long-Term Debt – Real Estate Loans” and   Long-Term Debt  – HUD Insured Loans.”  

 

(4)   Net Revenues and Accounts Receivable

 

Revenue Streams

 

Inpatient Services

 

The Company generates revenues primarily by providing services to patients within its facilities. The Company uses interdisciplinary teams of experienced medical professionals to provide services prescribed by physicians. These teams include registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants and other professionals who provide individualized comprehensive nursing care. Many of the Company’s facilities are equipped to provide specialty care, such as on-site dialysis, ventilator care, cardiac and pulmonary management, as well as standard services, such as room and board, special nutritional programs, social services, recreational activities and related healthcare and other services. The Company assesses collectibility on all accounts prior to providing services.

 

Rehabilitation Therapy Services

 

The Company generates revenues by providing rehabilitation therapy services, including speech-language pathology, physical therapy, occupational therapy and respiratory therapy at its skilled nursing facilities and assisted/senior living facilities, as well as facilities of third-party skilled nursing operators and other outpatient settings.  The majority of revenues generated by rehabilitation therapy services rendered are billed to contracted third party providers.

 

Other Services

 

The Company generates revenues by providing an array of other specialty medical services, including physician services, staffing services, and other healthcare related services.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company generates revenues, primarily by providing healthcare services to its customers. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised good or service is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled from patients, third-party payers (including government programs and insurers) and others, in exchange for those goods and services. 

 

Performance obligations are determined based on the nature of the services provided.  The majority of the Company’s healthcare services represent a bundle of services that are not capable of being distinct and as such, are treated as a single performance obligation satisfied over time as services are rendered.  The Company also provides certain ancillary services which are not included in the bundle of services, and as such, are treated as separate performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, if and when, those services are rendered.

GENESIS HEALTHCARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

 

The Company determines the transaction price based on contractually agreed-upon amounts or rates, adjusted for estimates of variable consideration, such as implicit price concessions.  The Company utilizes the expected value method to determine the amount of variable consideration that should be included to arrive at the transaction price, using contractual agreements and historical reimbursement experience within each payor type. Variable consideration also exists in the form of settlements with Medicare and Medicaid as a result of retroactive adjustments due to audits and reviews. The Company applies constraint to the transaction price, such that net revenues are recorded only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in the future. If actual amounts of consideration ultimately received differ from the Company’s estimates, the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect net revenues in the period such variances become known.  Adjustments arising from a change in the transaction price were not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

The Company has elected a practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component due to its expectation that the period between the time the service is provided and the time payment is received will be one year or less.

 

Adoption of ASC 606

 

The Company’s adoption of ASC 606 primarily impacts the presentation of revenues due to the inclusion of variable consideration in the form of implicit price concessions contained in certain of its contracts with customers.  Under ASC 606, amounts estimated to be uncollectable are generally considered implicit price concessions that are a direct reduction to net revenues. Prior to adoption of ASC 606, such amounts were classified as provision for losses on accounts receivable.  For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded approximately $24.8 million of implicit price concessions as a direct reduction of net revenues that would have been recorded as operating expenses prior to the adoption of ASC 606.  The adoption of ASC 606 is not expected to have a material impact on net income on an ongoing basis. To the extent there are material subsequent events that affect the payor's ability to pay, such amounts are recorded within operating expenses. 

 

At March 31, 2018, the Company recorded $296.0 million as a direct reduction of accounts receivable that would have been reflected as allowance for doubtful accounts in the consolidated balance sheet prior to the adoption of ASC 606.

 

The Company has reclassified the prior period balance of the provision for losses on accounts receivable of $23.5 million, to other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. This reclassification had no effect on the reported results of operations.

 

Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue in the statements of operations and contract assets on the consolidated balance sheets only when services have been provided.  Since the Company has performed its obligation under the contract, it has unconditional rights to the consideration recorded as contract assets and therefore classifies those billed and unbilled contract assets as accounts receivable.

 

Under ASC 606, payments that the Company receives from customers in advance of providing services represent contract liabilities.  Such payments primarily relate to private pay patients, which are billed monthly in advance.  The Company had no material contract liabilities or activity as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

Disaggregation of Revenues

 

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers by reportable operating segments and payor type. The Company notes that disaggregation of revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objectives to depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.  The payment terms and conditions within the Company's revenue-generating contracts vary by contract type and payor source.  Payments are generally received within 30 to 60 days after billed.  See Note 6 – “ Segment Information .”

The Company adopted the new revenue standard using the modified retrospective transition method.  As a result, the prior period amounts have not been adjusted.

 

 

 

(5) Loss Per Share

 

The Company has three classes of common stock.  Classes A and B are identical in economic and voting interests.  Class C has a 1:1 voting ratio with the other two classes, representing the voting interests of the noncontrolling interest of the legacy FC-GEN Operations Investment, LLC (FC-GEN) owners. Class C common stock is a participating security; however, it shares in a de minimis economic interest and is therefore excluded from the denominator of the basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) calculation.

 

Basic EPS was computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net loss plus the effect of assumed conversions (if applicable) by the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares after giving effect to all potential dilutive common shares.

The combined impact of the assumed conversion to common stock and related tax implications attributable to the noncontrolling interest, the grants under the 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, and the stock warrants are anti-dilutive to EPS because the Company is in a net loss position for the three months ended March 31, 2018. As of March 31, 2018, there were 60.7 million units attributable to the noncontrolling interests outstanding.

Asset Based Lending Facilities

 

On March 6, 2018, the Company entered into a new asset based lending facility agreement with MidCap.  The agreement provides for a $555 million asset based lending facility comprised of (a) a $325 million first lien term loan facility, (b) a $200 million first lien revolving credit facility and (c) a $30 million delayed draw term loan facility (collectively, the ABL Credit Facilities).  The commitments under the delayed draw loan facility will be reduced to $20 million in the year 2020.

 

The ABL Credit Facilities have a five-year term set to mature on March 6, 2023.  The ABL Credit Facilities include a springing maturity clause that would accelerate its maturity 90 days prior to the maturity of the Term Loan Agreements, Welltower Real Estate Loans or MidCap Real Estate Loans, in the event those agreements are not extended or refinanced.  Proceeds were used to replace and repay in full the Company’s existing $525 million Revolving Credit Facilities. 

 

$58.0 million of the proceeds received under the ABL Credit Facilities were deposited in a restricted account.  This amount is pledged to cash collateralize letters of credit previously issued under the Revolving Credit Facilities. The Company has classified this deposit as restricted cash and equivalents on the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2018.

 

Borrowings under the term loan and revolving credit facility components of the ABL Credit Facilities bear interest at a 90-day LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 0.5%) plus an applicable margin of 6%.  Borrowings under the delayed draw component bear interest at a 90-day LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 1%) plus an applicable margin of 11%. Borrowing levels under the term loan and revolving credit facility components of the ABL Credit Facilities are limited to a borrowing base that is computed based upon the level of eligible accounts receivable.

 

In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal borrowed under the revolving credit facility, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders for any unutilized commitments.  The commitment fee rate equals 0.5% per annum on the revolving credit facility and 2% on the delayed draw term loan facility.  The Company will be charged a letters of credit fee equal to 6% on any undrawn letters of credit.

 

The term loan facility and revolving credit facility include a termination fee equal to 2% if the loans are prepaid within the first year, 1% if the loans are prepaid after year one and before year two, and 0.5% thereafter.  The term loan facility and revolving credit

facility include an exit fee equal to $1.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, due and payable on the earlier of the loans retirement or on the maturity date.

 

The ABL Credit Facilities contain representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, financial covenants and events of default and security interests that are customarily required for similar financings.  Financial covenants include a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio and minimum liquidity.

 

Borrowings and interest rates under the ABL Credit Facilities were as follows at March 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands):

Prior to March 6, 2018, the Company’s Revolving Credit Facilities, as amended, consisted of a senior secured, asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $525.0 million under two separate tranches:  Tranche A-1 and HUD Tranche and were set to mature on February 2, 2020.  Interest accrued at a per annum rate equal to either (x) a base rate (calculated as the highest of the (i) prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 3.00%, or (iii) LIBOR plus the excess of the applicable margin between LIBOR loans and base rate loans) plus an applicable margin or (y) LIBOR plus an applicable margin.  The applicable margin was based on the level of commitments for both tranches, and in regards to LIBOR loans (i) for Tranche A-1 ranges from 3.00% to 3.50%; and (ii) for HUD Tranche ranges from 2.50% to 3.00%.  The applicable margin was based on the level of commitments for both tranches, and in regards to base rate loans (i) for Tranche A-1 ranges from 2.00% to 2.50% and (ii) for HUD Tranche ranges from 2.00% to 2.50%.

 

Term Loan Agreements

 

The Company and certain of its affiliates, including FC-GEN (the Borrower) are party to a four-year term loan agreement (the Term Loan Agreement) with an affiliate of Welltower and an affiliate of Omega.  The Term Loan Agreement originally provided for term loans (the Term Loans) in the aggregate principal amount of $120.0 million, with scheduled annual amortization of 2.5% of the initial principal balance in years one, two and three, and 5.0% in year four.  On March 6, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment to the Term Loans (the Term Loan Amendment) pursuant to which the Company borrowed an additional $40 million to be used for certain debt repayment and general corporate purposes (the 2018 Term Loan). The Term Loan Agreement continues to have a maturity date of July 29, 2020. The 2018 Term Loan bears interest at a rate equal to 10.0% per annum, with up to 5% per annum to be paid in kind.  The Term Loan Amendment also changes the interest rate applicable to the Term Loans to be equal to 14% per annum, with up to 9% per annum to be paid in kind. As of March 31, 2018, the Term Loans and 2018 Term Loan had an outstanding principal balance of $167.7 million.  Among other things, the Term Loan Amendment eliminates any principal amortization payments on any of the loans prior to maturity and modifies the financial covenants beginning in 2018.

 

The Term Loan Agreement is secured by a first priority lien on the equity interests of the subsidiaries of the Company and the Borrower as well as certain other assets of the Company, the Borrower and their subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.  The Term Loan Agreement is also secured by a junior lien on the assets that secure the ABL Credit Facilities on a first priority basis.

Welltower and Omega, or their respective affiliates, are each currently landlords under certain master lease agreements to which the Company and/or its affiliates are tenants. 

 

The Term Loan Agreement contains financial, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default that are customary for debt securities of this type.  Financial covenants include four maintenance covenants which require the Company to maintain a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and maximum capital expenditures.  The most restrictive financial covenant is the maximum leverage ratio which requires the Company to maintain a leverage ratio, as defined therein, of no more than 9.0 to 1.0 through December 31, 2018 and decreasing by 0.25 annually to 8.5 to 1.0 beginning in 2020.

 

The Term Loan Agreement includes a non-cash debt premium balance of $13.6 million at March 31, 2018.  As the terms under the Term Loan Amendment were negotiated and executed at the same time as other Welltower amendments included in the Restructuring Transactions (i.e. the Real Estate Loan Amendments and Welltower Master Lease Amendment), U.S. GAAP requires the Company record interest expense for each instrument at a rate equal to the combined effective interest rate rather than the stated interest rate of each instrument individually.  The effective interest rate was calculated by measuring the aggregate cash flows payable to Welltower under the combined amended agreements compared to the carrying value of the original obligations on March 6, 2018.  Since the combined effective interest rate of all the Restructuring Transactions involving Welltower of approximately 7.5% is lower than the Term Loan Amendment weighted interest rate of 13.0%, the Company recorded a debt premium, which was offset by a corresponding discount on the Welltower financing obligation, and will amortize over the life of the Term Loan Amendment.  See Note 10 – “ Financing Obligation .”

 

Real Estate Loans

 

On March 30, 2018, the Company entered into two real estate loans with MidCap (MidCap Real Estate Loans) with combined available proceeds of $75.0 million, $73.0 million of which was drawn as of March 31, 2018.  The MidCap Real Estate Loans are secured by 18 skilled nursing facilities and are subject to a five-year term maturing on March 30, 2023.  The maturity of the MidCap Real Estate Loans will accelerate in the event the ABL Credit Facilities are repaid in full and terminated.  The loans, which are interest only in the first year, are subject to an annual interest rate equal to LIBOR (subject to a floor of 1.5%) plus an applicable margin of 5.85%.  Beginning April 1, 2019, mandatory principal payments shall commence with the balance of the loans to be repaid at maturity.  Proceeds from the MidCap Real Estate Loans were used to repay partially the Welltower Real Estate Loans (defined below).    

 

The Company is subject to multiple real estate loan agreements with Welltower (Welltower Real Estate Loans).  The Welltower Real Estate Loans are subject to payments of interest only during the term with a balloon payment due at maturity, provided, that to the extent the subsidiaries receive any net proceeds from the sale and/or refinance of the underlying facilities such net proceeds are required to be used to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Welltower Real Estate Loans.  Each Welltower Real Estate Loan has a maturity date of January 1, 2022 and had a 10.25% interest rate beginning January 1, 2018. 

 

On February 21, 2018, the Company entered into amendments to the Welltower Real Estate Loans (the Real Estate Loan Amendments).  The Real Estate Loan Amendments adjust the annual interest rate beginning February 15, 2018 to 12%, of which 7% will be paid in cash and 5% will be paid in kind.  In connection with the Real Estate Loan Amendments, the Company agreed to make commercially reasonable efforts to secure commitments by April 1, 2018 to repay no less than $105 million of the Welltower Real Estate Loan obligations.  As of April 1, 2018, the Company secured repayments or commitments totaling approximately $87 million.  As a result, the annual cash component of the interest payments will be increased by approximately $2.0 million with a corresponding decrease in the paid in kind component of interest.  At March 31, 2018, the Welltower Real Estate Loans are secured by a mortgage lien on the real property and a second lien on certain receivables of the operators of the 15 remaining facilities subject to the Welltower Real Estate Loans.  In the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Welltower Real Estate Loans were paid down $69.7 million using proceeds from the MidCap Real Estate Loans.  The Welltower Real Estate Loans have an outstanding principal balance of $209.6 million at March 31, 2018.

The Welltower Real Estate Loans include a non-cash debt premium balance of $36.2 million at March 31, 2018.  As the terms under the Real Estate Loan Amendments were negotiated and executed at the same time as other Welltower amendments included in the Restructuring Transactions (i.e. the Term Loan Amendment and Welltower Master Lease Amendment), U.S. GAAP requires the Company record interest expense for each instrument at a rate equal to the combined effective interest rate rather than the stated interest rate of each instrument individually.  The effective interest rate was calculated by measuring the aggregate cash flows payable to Welltower under the combined amended agreements compared to the carrying value of the original obligations on March 6, 2018.  Since the combined effective interest rate of all the Restructuring Transactions involving Welltower of approximately 7.5% is lower than the Real Estate Loan Amendments weighted interest rate of 12.0%, the Company recorded a debt premium, which was offset by a corresponding discount on the Welltower financing obligation, and will amortize over the life of the Real Estate Loan Amendments.  See Note 10 – “ Financing Obligation .”

 

Thirteen skilled nursing facilities subject to the Welltower Real Estate Loans, balances included in the disclosures noted above, were reclassified as assets held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2018. These 13 skilled nursing facilities had an aggregate principal balance of $108.0 million, of which $20.1 million will be retired using proceeds from the sale and are classified as held for sale.  The sale is expected to be completed in the second or third quarter of 2018.  See Note 15 – “ Assets Held for Sale .”

 

On April 1, 2016, the Company acquired one skilled nursing facility and entered into a $9.9 million real estate loan (the Other Real Estate Loan).  On February 22, 2018, the skilled nursing facility subject to the Other Real Estate Loan was refinanced through a HUD insured loan.  Some of the proceeds from the refinancing were used to payoff fully the Other Real Estate Loan.

 

HUD Insured Loans

 

As of March 31, 2018, the Company has 31 skilled nursing facility loans insured by HUD with a combined aggregate principal balance of $279.0 million, which includes a $13.5 million debt premium on 10 skilled nursing facility loans established in purchase accounting in 2015.  In the three months ended March 31, 2018, one skilled nursing facility was financed with a HUD insured loan for $10.9 million using some of the proceeds to retire the Other Real Estate Loan. 

 

The HUD insured loans have an original amortization term of 30 to 35 years and an average remaining term of 30 years with fixed interest rates ranging from 3.0% to 4.2% and a weighted average interest rate of 3.5%. Depending on the mortgage agreement, prepayments are generally allowed only after 12 months from the inception of the mortgage. Prepayments are subject to a penalty of 10% of the remaining principal balances in the first year and the prepayment penalty decreases each subsequent year by 1% until no penalty is required thereafter. Any further HUD insured loans will require additional HUD approval.

 

All HUD insured loans are non-recourse loans to the Company. All loans are subject to HUD regulatory agreements that require escrow reserve funds to be deposited with the loan servicer for mortgage insurance premiums, property taxes, insurance and for capital replacement expenditures. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has total escrow reserve funds of $23.0 million with the loan servicer that are reported within prepaid expenses.

 

The HUD loans of nine skilled nursing facilities, balances included in the disclosures noted above, were reclassified as assets held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2018. These nine skilled nursing facilities had an aggregate principal balance of $88.9 million, net of debt issuance costs and debt premiums, and aggregate escrow reserve funds of $8.8 million.  The nine skilled nursing facilities are expected to be sold in the second or third quarter of 2018.  See Note 15 – “ Assets Held for Sale .”

 

Notes Payable

 

On January 17, 2018, the Company converted $19.6 million of its trade payables into a short-term notes payable.  The note will be repaid in equal monthly installments through December 2018 at an annual interest rate of 5.75%.  The note has an outstanding balance of $14.8 million at March 31, 2018.

In connection with Welltower’s sale of 64 skilled nursing facilities to Second Spring Healthcare Investments (Second Spring) on November 1, 2016, the Company issued a note totaling $51.2 million to Welltower.  The note accrues cash interest at 3% and paid-in-kind interest at 7%.  Cash interest is paid and paid-in-kind interest accretes the principal amount semi-annually every May 1 and November 1.  The note matures on October 30, 2020.  The note has an outstanding accreted balance of $55.5 million at March 31, 2018.

 

In connection with Welltower’s sale of 28 skilled nursing facilities to Cindat Best Years Welltower JV LLC (CBYW) on December 23, 2016, the Company issued two notes totaling $23.7 million to Welltower.  The first note has an initial principal balance of $11.7 million and accrues cash interest at 3% and paid-in-kind interest at 7%.  Cash interest is paid and paid-in-kind interest accretes the principal amount semi-annually every June 15 and December 15.  The note matures on December 15, 2021.  The note has an outstanding accreted principal balance of $12.7 million at March 31, 2018.  The second note had an initial principal balance of $12.0 million and was converted into 3.0 million shares of common stock on November 13, 2017 and cancelled. 

 

Other Debt

 

Mortgages and other secured debt (recourse). The Company carries mortgage loans and notes payable on certain of its corporate office buildings and other acquired assets.  The loans are secured by the underlying real property and have fixed or variable rates of interest with a weighted average interest rate of 3.6% at March 31, 2018, with maturity dates ranging from 2018 to 2020. 

 

Mortgages and other secured debt (non-recourse). Loans are carried by certain of the Company’s consolidated joint ventures.  The loans consist principally of revenue bonds and secured bank loans.  Loans are secured by the underlying real and personal property of individual facilities and have fixed or variable rates of interest with a weighted average interest rate of 4.7% at March 31, 2018.  Maturity dates range from 2023 to 2034.  Loans are labeled non-recourse” because neither the Company nor any of its wholly owned subsidiaries is obligated to perform under the respective loan agreements.  The aggregate principal balance of these loans includes a $1.6 million debt premium on one debt instrument.   The Company’s consolidated current installment of long-term debt decreased $10.9 million due to the reclassification of a non-recourse loan to long term upon the completion of a refinancing in March 2018.

 

Debt Covenants

 

The ABL Credit Facilities, the Term Loan Agreement and the Welltower Real Estate Loans (collectively, the Credit Facilities) each contain a number of financial, affirmative and negative covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, minimum liquidity and maximum capital expenditures.  At March 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants contained in the Credit Facilities.

 

The Company’s ability to maintain compliance with its debt covenants depends in part on management’s ability to increase revenue and control costs.  Should the Company fail to comply with its debt covenants at a future measurement date, it would, absent necessary and timely waivers and/or amendments, be in default under certain of its existing credit agreements.  To the extent any cross-default provisions may apply, the default would have an even more significant impact on the Company’s financial position.

Deferred Lease Balances

 

At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $32.7 million and $34.9 million, respectively, of favorable leases net of accumulated amortization, included in identifiable intangible assets, and $14.3 million and $15.5 million, respectively, of unfavorable leases net of accumulated amortization included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.  Favorable and unfavorable lease assets and liabilities arise through the acquisition of operating leases in place that requires those contracts be recorded at their then fair value.  The fair value of a lease is determined through a comparison of the actual rental rate with rental rates prevalent for similar assets in similar markets.  A favorable lease asset to the Company represents a rental stream that is below market, and conversely an unfavorable lease is one with its cost above market rates.  These assets and liabilities amortize as lease expense over the remaining term of the respective leases on a straight-line basis.  At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $28.0 million and $28.7 million, respectively, of deferred straight-line rent balances included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Lease Covenants

Certain lease agreements contain a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things, and subject to certain exceptions, impose operating and financial restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries.  These leases also require the Company to meet defined financial covenants, including a minimum level of consolidated liquidity, a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage.  

The Company has master lease agreements with Welltower, Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. (Sabra) and Omega (collectively, the Master Lease Agreements).  The Master Lease Agreements each contain a number of financial, affirmative and negative covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and minimum liquidity.  At March 31, 2018, the Company is in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Master Lease Agreements. 

The Company has a master lease agreement with Second Spring involving 64 of its facilities.  The Company did not meet a financial covenant contained in this master lease agreement at March 31, 2018.  The Company received a waiver for this covenant through March 31, 2018 and an agreement to waive this covenant under certain conditions through March 31, 2019.

The Company has a master lease agreement with CBYW involving 28 of its facilities.  The Company did not meet certain financial covenants contained in this master lease agreement at March 31, 2018.  The Company received a waiver for these covenant breaches through October 24, 2019. 

At March 31, 2018, the Company did not meet certain financial covenants contained in seven leases related to 45 of its facilities.  The Company is and expects to continue to be current in the timely payment of its obligations under such leases. These leases do not have cross default provisions, nor do they trigger cross default provisions in any of the Company’s other loan or lease agreements.  The Company will continue to work with the related credit parties to amend such leases and the related financial covenants.  The Company does not believe the breach of such financial covenants at March 31, 2018 will have a material adverse impact on it.  The Company has been afforded certain cure rights to such defaults by posting collateral in the form of additional letters of credit or security deposit.

The Company’s ability to maintain compliance with its lease covenants depends in part on management’s ability to increase revenue and control costs.  Due to continuing changes in the healthcare industry, as well as the uncertainty with respect to changing referral patterns, patient mix, and reimbursement rates, it is possible that future operating performance may not generate sufficient operating results to maintain compliance with its quarterly lease covenant compliance requirements. Should the Company fail to comply with its lease covenants at a future measurement date, it would, absent necessary and timely waivers and/or amendments, be in default under certain of its existing lease agreements. To the extent any cross-default provisions may apply, the default would have an even more significant impact on the Company’s financial position.

   

(10) Financing Obligation

 

Financing obligations represent the present value of future minimum lease payments under such lease arrangements and bear a weighted average imputed interest rate of approximately 9.0% at March 31, 2018 compared to a weighted average imputed interest rate of 10.6% at December 31, 2017, and mature at dates ranging from 2021 to 2048.

 

The Welltower Master Lease Amendment includes a non-cash financing obligation discount balance of $49.8 million at March 31, 2018.  As the terms under the Welltower Master Lease Amendment were negotiated and executed at the same time as other Welltower amendments included in the Restructuring Transactions (i.e. the Term Loan Amendment and Real Estate Loan Amendment), U.S. GAAP requires the Company record interest expense for each instrument at a rate equal to the combined effective interest rate rather than the stated interest rate of each instrument individually.  The effective interest rate was calculated by measuring the aggregate cash flows payable to Welltower under the combined amended agreements   compared to the carrying value of the original obligations on March 6, 2018.  Since the combined effective interest rate of all the Restructuring Transactions

involving Welltower of approximately 7.5% is higher than the Welltower Master Lease Amendment weighted interest rate of approximately 7.0%, the Company recorded a financing obligation discount, which was offset by a corresponding premium on each of the Welltower Real Estate Loans and Term Loan Amendment, and will amortize over the life of the Welltower Master Lease Amendment.  See Note 8 – “ Long-Term Debt – Term Loan Agreements ” and “ Long-Term Debt  – Real Estate Loans .”

(11) Income Taxes

 

The Company effectively owns 61.9% of FC-GEN, an entity taxed as a partnership for U.S. income tax purposes.  This is the Company’s only source of taxable income.  FC-GEN is subject to income taxes in several U.S. state and local jurisdictions.  The income taxes assessed by these jurisdictions are included in the Company’s tax provision, but at its 61.9% ownership of FC-GEN.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.3 million from continuing operations, representing an effective tax rate of (0.3)%, compared to income tax benefit of $1.3 million from continuing operations, representing an effective tax rate of (1.6)%, for the same period in 2017.

 

The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018, is attributable to a reduced projected change in the Company’s hanging credit deferred tax liability compared to the prior period that is the result of the goodwill impairment recorded against the inpatient services business in the third quarter of 2017.

 

The Company continues to assess the requirement for, and amount of, a valuation allowance in accordance with the more likely than not standard.  Management had previously determined that the Company would not realize its deferred tax assets and established a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.  As of March 31, 2018, management has determined that the valuation allowance is still necessary.

 

The Company’s Bermuda captive insurance company is expected to generate positive U.S. federal taxable income in 2018, with no net operating loss to offset its taxable income.  The captive also does not have any tax credits to offset its U.S. federal income tax.  For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the captive insurance company’s current and deferred income taxes comprised the most significant portion of the Company’s overall tax provision.

 

The Company provides rehabilitation therapy services within the People’s Republic of China and Hong Kong.  At March 31, 2018, these business operations do not comprise a significant portion of the Company’s overall operating results.  Management does not anticipate these operations will generate taxable income in the near term.  The operations currently do not have a material effect on the Company’s effective tax rate.

 

The SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (SAB 118) on December 23, 2017.  SAB 118 provides a one-year measurement period from a registrant’s reporting period that includes the Tax Reform Act enactment date to allow the registrant

sufficient time to obtain, prepare and analyze information to complete the accounting required under ASC 740.  In addition to the aforementioned impacts to the Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017, the Tax Reform Act could have other impacts on the Company in the future. The Company's federal net operating losses that have been incurred prior to December 31, 2017 will continue to have a 20-year carryforward limitation applied and will need to be evaluated for recoverability in the future as such. For net operating losses created after December 31, 2017, the net operating losses will have an indefinite life, but usage will be limited to 80% of taxable income in any given year. The Company has estimated the impact of the Tax Reform Act on state income taxes reflected in its income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  Reasonable estimates for the Company’s state and local provision were made based on the Company's analysis of tax reform. These provisional amounts may be adjusted in future periods during 2018 when additional information is obtained. Additional information that may affect the Company's provisional amounts would include further clarification and guidance on how the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will implement tax reform and further clarification and guidance on how state taxing authorities will implement tax reform and the related effect on our state and local income tax returns, state and local net operating losses and corresponding valuation allowances.

 

Exchange Rights and Tax Receivable Agreement

 

The owners of FC-GEN have the right to exchange their membership units in FC-GEN ,   along with an equivalent number of Class C shares, for shares of Class A common stock of the Company or cash, at the Company’s option.  As a result of such exchanges, the Company’s membership interest in FC-GEN would increase and its purchase price would be reflected in its share of the tax basis of FC-GEN’s tangible and intangible assets.  Any resulting increases in tax basis are likely to increase tax depreciation and amortization deductions and, therefore, reduce the amount of income tax the Company would otherwise be required to pay in the future.  Any such increase would also decrease gain (or increase loss) on future dispositions of the affected assets.  There were exchanges of 830,082 FC-GEN units and Class C shares in the three months ended March 31, 2018 equating to 830,224 Class A shares.  The exchanges during the three months ended March 31, 2018 resulted in a $5.5 million internal revenue code (IRC) Section 754 tax basis step-up in the tax deductible goodwill of FC-GEN.  There were exchanges of 1,648,869 FC-GEN units and Class C shares during the three months ended March 31, 2017 equating to 1,649,153 Class A shares.  The exchanges during the three months ended March 31, 2017 resulted in a $10.9 million IRC Section 754 tax basis step-up in the tax deductible goodwill of FC-GEN.

 

The Company has a tax receivable agreement (TRA) with the owners of FC-GEN.  The agreement provides for the payment by the Company to the owners of FC-GEN of 90% of the cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that the Company actually realizes as a result of (i) the increases in tax basis attributable to the owners of FC-GEN and (ii) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of the TRA.  Under the TRA, the benefits deemed realized by the Company as a result of the increase in tax basis attributable to the owners of FC-GEN generally will be computed by comparing the actual income tax liability of the Company to the amount of such taxes that the Company would have been required to pay had there been no such increase in tax basis.

 

Estimating the amount of payments that may be made under the TRA is by its nature imprecise, insofar as the calculation of amounts payable depends on a variety of factors. The actual increase in tax basis and deductions, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the TRA, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including:

the timing of exchanges—for instance, the increase in any tax deductions will vary depending on the fair value of the depreciable or amortizable assets of FC-GEN and its subsidiaries at the time of each exchange, which fair value may fluctuate over time;

 

·

the price of shares of Company Class A common stock at the time of the exchange—the increase in any tax deductions, and the tax basis increase in other assets of FC-GEN and its subsidiaries is directly proportional to the price of shares of Company Class A common stock at the time of the exchange;

 

·

the amount and timing of the Company’s income—the Company is required to pay 90% of the deemed benefits as and when deemed realized. If FC-GEN does not have taxable income, the Company is generally not required (absent a change of control or circumstances requiring an early termination payment) to make payments under the TRA for that

(UNAUDITED)

 

taxable year because no benefit will have been actually realized.  However, any tax benefits that do not result in realized benefits in a given tax year likely will generate tax attributes that may be utilized to generate benefits in previous or future tax years. The utilization of such tax attributes will result in payments under the TRA; and

 

·

future tax rates of jurisdictions in which the Company has tax liability.

 

The TRA also provides that upon certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes of control, FC-GEN (or its successor’s) obligations under the TRA would be based on certain assumptions defined in the TRA. As a result of these assumptions, FC-GEN could be required to make payments under the TRA that are greater or less than the specified percentage of the actual benefits realized by the Company that are subject to the TRA.  In addition, if FC-GEN elects to terminate the TRA early, it would be required to make an early termination payment, which upfront payment may be made significantly in advance of the anticipated future tax benefits.

 

Payments generally are due under the TRA within a specified period of time following the filing of FC-GEN’s U.S. federal and state income tax return for the taxable year with respect to which the payment obligation arises.  Payments under the TRA generally will be based on the tax reporting positions that FC-GEN will determine.  Although FC-GEN does not expect the IRS to challenge the Company’s tax reporting positions, FC-GEN will not be reimbursed for any overpayments previously made under the TRA, but any overpayments will reduce future payments.  As a result, in certain circumstances, payments could be made under the TRA in excess of the benefits that FC-GEN actually realizes in respect of the tax attributes subject to the TRA.

 

The term of the TRA generally will continue until all applicable tax benefits have been utilized or expired, unless the Company exercises its right to terminate the TRA and make an early termination payment.

 

In certain circumstances (such as certain changes in control, the election of the Company to exercise its right to terminate the agreement and make an early termination payment or an IRS challenge to a tax basis increase) it is possible that cash payments under the TRA may exceed actual cash savings.

 

(12) Commitments and Contingencies

 

Loss Reserves For Certain Self-Insured Programs

 

General and Professional Liability and Workers’ Compensation

 

The Company self-insures for certain insurable risks, including general and professional liabilities and workers’ compensation liabilities through the use of self-insurance or retrospective and self-funded insurance policies and other hybrid policies, which vary among states in which the Company operates, including wholly owned captive insurance subsidiaries, to provide for potential liabilities for general and professional liability claims and workers’ compensation claims. Policies are typically written for a duration of 12 months and are measured on a “claims made” basis. Regarding workers’ compensation, the Company self-insures to its deductible and purchases statutorily required insurance coverage in excess of its deductible. There is a risk that amounts funded by the Company’s self-insurance programs may not be sufficient to respond to all claims asserted under those programs. Insurance reserves represent estimates of future claims payments. This liability includes an estimate of the development of reported losses and losses incurred but not reported. Provisions for changes in insurance reserves are made in the period of the related coverage. The Company also considers amounts that may be recovered from excess insurance carriers in estimating the ultimate net liability for such risks.

 

The Company’s management employs its judgment and periodic independent actuarial analysis in determining the adequacy of certain self-insured workers’ compensation and general and professional liability obligations recorded as liabilities in the Company’s financial statements. The Company evaluates the adequacy of its self-insurance reserves on a semi-annual basis or more frequently when it is aware of changes to its incurred loss patterns that could impact the accuracy of those reserves. The methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting reserves are reviewed periodically and are based on historical paid claims information

29


 

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

 

and nationwide nursing home trends. The foundation for most of these methods is the Company’s actual historical reported and/or paid loss data. Any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current earnings. Claims are paid over varying periods, and future payments may be different than the estimated reserves.

 

The Company utilizes third-party administrators (TPAs) to process claims and to provide it with the data utilized in its assessments of reserve adequacy. The TPAs are under the oversight of the Company’s in-house risk management and legal functions. These functions ensure that the claims are properly administered so that the historical data is reliable for estimation purposes. Case reserves, which are approved by the Company’s legal and risk management departments, are determined based on an estimate of the ultimate settlement and/or ultimate loss exposure of individual claims.

 

The reserves for loss for workers’ compensation risks are discounted based on actuarial estimates. The discount rate for the current policy year is 1.48%. The discount rates are based upon the risk-free rate for the appropriate duration for the respective policy year. The removal of discounting would have resulted in an increased reserve for workers’ compensation risks of $7.0 million and $6.7 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The reserves for general and professional liability are recorded on an undiscounted basis.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the provision for general and professional liability risk totaled $28.1 million and $34.5 million, respectively.  The reserves for general and professional liability were $454.8 million and $442.9 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the provision for workers’ compensation risk totaled $15.3 million and $17.2 million, respectively.  The reserves for workers’ compensation risks were $174.5 million and $174.6 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

 

Health Insurance

 

The Company offers employees an option to participate in self-insured health plans.  Health insurance claims are paid as they are submitted to the plans’ administrators.  The Company maintains an accrual for claims that have been incurred but not yet reported to the plans’ administrators and therefore have not yet been paid.  This accrual for incurred but not yet reported claims was $18.6 million and $17.5 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.  The liability for the self-insured health plan is recorded in accrued compensation in the consolidated balance sheets.  Although management believes that the amounts provided in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are adequate and reasonable, there can be no assurances that the ultimate liability for such self-insured risks will not exceed management’s estimates.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in various litigation and regulatory investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. While there can be no assurance, based on the Company’s evaluation of information currently available, with the exception of the specific matters noted below, management does not believe the results of such litigation and regulatory investigations would have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company. However, the Company’s assessment of materiality may be affected by limited information (particularly in the early stages of government investigations). Accordingly, the Company’s assessment of materiality may change in the future based upon availability of discovery and further developments in the proceedings at issue. The results of legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and material adverse outcomes are possible.

 

From time to time the Company may enter into confidential discussions regarding the potential settlement of pending investigations or litigation. There are a variety of factors that influence the Company’s decisions to settle and the amount it may choose to pay, including the strength of the Company’s case, developments in the investigation or litigation, the behavior of other interested parties, the demand on management time and the possible distraction of the Company’s employees associated with the case and/or the possibility that the Company may be subject to an injunction or other equitable remedy. The settlement of any

(UNAUDITED)

 

pending investigation, litigation or other proceedings could require the Company to make substantial settlement payments and result in its incurring substantial costs.

 

(13) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and equivalents,  investments in marketable securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable and current and long-term debt.

 

The Company’s financial instruments, other than its accounts receivable and accounts payable, are spread across a number of large financial institutions whose credit ratings the Company monitors and believes do not currently carry a material risk of non-performance.  The Company is not involved in any other off-balance-sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future impact on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expense, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

 

Recurring Fair Value Measures  

 

Fair value is defined as an exit price (i.e., 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).  The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as shown below.  An instrument’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Level 1 —

 

Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 —

 

Inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

Level 3 —

 

Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability based on the Company’s own assumptions (about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).

 

The tables below present the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall (in thousands):

The fair value of debt is based upon market prices or is computed using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Company’s estimated borrowing rate at the end of each fiscal period presented.  The Company believes this approach approximates the exit price notion of fair value measurement and the inputs to the pricing models qualify as Level 2 measurements. 

 

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measures  

 

The Company recently applied the fair value measurement principles to certain of its non-recurring nonfinancial assets in connection with an impairment test .

The fair value of tangible and intangible assets is determined using a discounted cash flow approach, which is a significant unobservable input (Level 3).  The Company estimates the fair value using the income approach (which is a discounted cash flow technique).  These valuation methods required management to make various assumptions, including, but not limited to, future profitability, cash flows and discount rates.  The Company’s estimates are based upon historical trends, management’s knowledge and experience and overall economic factors, including projections of future earnings potential.

 

32


 

Table of Contents

(UNAUDITED)

 

Developing discounted future cash flows in applying the income approach requires the Company to evaluate its intermediate to longer-term strategies, including, but not limited to, estimates of revenue growth, operating margins, capital requirements, inflation and working capital management.  The development of appropriate rates to discount the estimated future cash flows requires the selection of risk premiums, which can materially affect the present value of future cash flows. 

 

The Company estimated the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets using discounted cash flow techniques that included an estimate of future cash flows, consistent with overall cash flow projections used to determine the purchase price paid to acquire the business, discounted at a rate of return that reflects the relative risk of the cash flows.

 

The Company believes the estimates and assumptions used in the valuation methods are reasonable.

 

 

 

 

 

(14) Asset Impairment Charges

 

Long-Lived Assets with a Definite Useful Life

 

In each quarter, the Company’s long-lived assets with a definite useful life are tested for impairment at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows.  The Company estimated the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the long-lived assets and then compared the estimated undiscounted cash flows to the carrying amount of the long-lived assets.  The cash flow period was based on the remaining useful lives of the primary asset in each long-lived asset group, principally a building in the inpatient segment and customer relationship assets in the rehabilitation therapy services segment.  During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized impairment charges in the inpatient segment totaling $28.4 million and $0.0 million, respectively. 

 

 

(15) Assets Held for Sale

 

In the normal course of business, the Company continually evaluates the performance of its operating units, with an emphasis on selling or closing underperforming or non-strategic assets.  These assets are evaluated to determine whether they qualify as assets held for sale or discontinued operations.  The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale shall be presented separately in the asset and liability sections, respectively, of the statement of financial position in the period in which they are identified only.  Assets held for sale that qualify as discontinued operations are removed from the results of continuing operations.  The results of operations in the current and prior year periods, along with any cost to exit such businesses in the year of discontinuation, are classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

In the first quarter of 2018, the Company identified a disposal group of 23 skilled nursing facilities operated by the Company in the state of Texas that qualified as assets held for sale.  The Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell the facilities for $120.0 million.  The transaction will mark an exit from the inpatient business in Texas.  Thirteen of the facilities are subject to Welltower Real Estate Loans, nine of the facilities are subject to HUD-insured loans and one facility is leased and accounted for as a financing obligation.  Closing is subject to licensure and other regulatory approvals and expected to occur in the second or third quarter of 2018.  The disposal group does not meet the criteria as a discontinued operation.  No gain or loss was recognized in the statements of operations for the disposal group.

( 16) Related Party Transactions

 

The Company provides rehabilitation services to certain facilities owned and operated by a customer in which certain members of the Company’s board of directors beneficially own an ownership interest.  These services resulted in net revenue of $32.9 million and $37.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The services resulted in net accounts receivable balances of $32.0 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.  These accounts receivable balances are net of a $55.0 million reserve recorded in 2017.  The Company deemed this reserve prudent giving the delays in collection on account of this related party customer.  The reserve represents the judgment of management, and does not indicate a forgiveness of any amount of the outstanding accounts receivable owed by this related party customer.  The Company is monitoring the financial condition of this customer and will adjust the reserve levels accordingly as new information about their outlook is available.

 

Effective May 1, 2016, the Company completed the sale of its hospice and home health operations to FC Compassus LLC for $72.0 million in cash and a $12.0 million interest-bearing note.  Certain members of the Company’s board of directors indirectly beneficially hold ownership interests in FC Compassus LLC totaling less than 10% in the aggregate. The combined note and accrued interest balance of $16.4 million remains outstanding at March 31, 2018.  On May 1, 2016, the Company entered into preferred provider and affiliation agreements with FC Compassus LLC.  Fees for these services amounted to $3.2 million and $2.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 

 

(17)   Subsequent Events

 

The Company divested five skilled nursing facilities on April 1, 2018.  All five of the skilled nursing facilities, three located in Massachusetts and two located in Kentucky, were terminated from their respective master lease agreements with Sabra.  The five skilled nursing facilities generated annual revenues of $28.5 million and pre-tax net loss of $2.9 million.  The Company recognized a gain of $0.3 million, which is included in other loss on the consolidated statements of operations.

Recent Transactions and Events

 

Restructuring Transactions

 

Overview

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, we entered into a number of agreements, amendments and new financing facilities further described below (the Restructuring Transactions) in an effort to strengthen significantly our capital structure.  In total, the Restructuring Transactions are estimated to reduce our annual cash fixed charges by approximately $62.0 million beginning in 2018 and provided $70.0 million of additional cash and borrowing availability, increasing our liquidity and financial flexibility. 

 

In connection with the Restructuring Transactions, we entered into a new asset based lending facility agreement, replacing our prior revolving credit facilities (the Revolving Credit Facilities) and eliminating its forbearance agreement.  Also in connection with the Restructuring Transactions, we amended the financial covenants in all of our material loan agreements and all but two of our material master leases.  Financial covenants beginning in 2018 were amended to account for changes in our capital structure as a result of the Restructuring Transactions and to account for the current business climate.  We received waivers from the counterparties to two of our material master leases, for which agreements to amend financial covenants were not attained, with respect to compliance with financial covenants from December 31, 2017 through at least March 31, 2019. 

 

The new asset based lending facility agreement and real estate loans are financed through MidCap Funding IV Trust and MidCap Financial Trust (collectively, MidCap), respectively.

 

Asset Based Lending Facilities

 

On March 6, 2018, we entered into a new asset based lending facility agreement with MidCap.  The agreement provides for a $555 million asset based lending facility comprised of (a) a $325 million first lien term loan facility, (b) a $200 million first lien revolving credit facility and (c) a $30 million delayed draw term loan facility (collectively, the ABL Credit Facilities). 

 

The ABL Credit Facilities have a five year term and proceeds were used to replace and repay in full our existing $525 million Revolving Credit Facilities scheduled to mature on February 2, 2020.  The ABL Credit Facilities include a springing maturity clause that would accelerate its maturity 90 days prior to the maturity of the Term Loan Agreements, Welltower Real Estate Loans or MidCap Real Estate Loans, in the event those agreements are not extended or refinanced.

 

Borrowings under the term loan and revolving credit facility components of the ABL Credit Facilities bear interest at a 90-day LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 0.5%) plus an applicable margin of 6%.  Borrowings under the delayed draw component bear interest at a 90-day LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 1%) plus an applicable margin of 11%. Borrowing levels under the term loan and revolving credit facility components of the ABL Credit Facilities are limited to a borrowing base that is computed based upon the level of eligible accounts receivable.

 

The ABL Credit Facilities contain representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, financial covenants and events of default and security interests that are customarily required for similar financings.

 

Term Loan Amendment

 

On March 6, 2018, we entered into an amendment to the term loan with affiliates of Welltower Inc. (Welltower) and Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (Omega) (the Term Loan Amendment) pursuant to which we borrowed an additional $40 million to be used for certain debt repayment and general corporate purposes (the 2018 Term Loan). 

 

The 2018 Term Loan will mature July 29, 2020 and bears interest at a rate equal to 10.0% per annum, with up to 5% per annum to be paid in kind.  The Term Loan Amendment also changes the interest rate applicable to the initial loans funded on July 29, 2016 to be equal to 14% per annum, with up to 9% per annum to be paid in kind.

Among other things, the Term Loan Amendment eliminates any principal amortization payments on any of the loans prior to maturity and modifies the financial covenants beginning in 2018.

 

Welltower Master Lease Amendment

 

On February 21, 2018, we entered into a definitive agreement with Welltower to amend the Welltower Master Lease (the Welltower Master Lease Amendment).  The Welltower Master Lease Amendment reduces our annual base rent payment by $35.0 million effective retroactively as of January 1, 2018, reduces the annual rent escalator from approximately 2.9% to 2.5% on April 1, 2018 and further reduces the annual rent escalator to 2.0% beginning January 1, 2019.  In addition, the Welltower Master Lease Amendment extends the initial term of the master lease by five years to January 31, 2037 and extends the renewal term of the master lease by five years to December 31, 2048.  The Welltower Master Lease Amendment also provides a potential upward rent reset, conditioned upon achievement of certain upside operating metrics, effective January 1, 2023.  If triggered, the incremental rent from the rent reset is capped at $35.0 million.

 

Omnibus Agreement

 

On February 21, 2018, we entered into an Omnibus Agreement with Welltower and Omega, pursuant to which Welltower and Omega committed to provide up to $40.0 million in new term loans and amend the current term loan to, among other things, accommodate a refinancing of our existing asset based credit facility, in each case subject to certain conditions, including the completion of a restructuring of certain of our other material debt and lease obligations.  See Term Loan Amendment above.

 

The Omnibus Agreement also provides that upon satisfying certain conditions, including raising new capital that is used to pay down certain indebtedness owed to Welltower and Omega, (a) $50.0 million of outstanding indebtedness owed to Welltower will be written off and (b) we may request conversion of not more than $50.0 million of the outstanding balance of our Welltower real estate loans into equity.  If the proposed equity conversion would result in any adverse REIT qualification, status or compliance consequences to Welltower, then the debt that would otherwise be converted to equity shall instead be converted into a loan incurring paid in kind interest at 2% per annum compounded quarterly, with a term of ten years commencing on the date the applicable conditions precedent to the equity conversion have been satisfied.  Moreover, we agreed to support Welltower in connection with the sale of certain of Welltower’s interests in facilities covered by the Welltower Master Lease, including negotiating and entering into definitive new master lease agreements with third party buyers.

 

In connection with the Omnibus Agreement, we agreed to issue warrants to Welltower and Omega to purchase 900,000 shares and 600,000 shares, respectively, of our Class A Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $1.33 per share.  Issuance of the warrant to Welltower is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.  The warrants may be exercised at any time during the period commencing six months from the date of issuance and ending five years from the date of issuance.

   

Welltower Real Estate Loans Amendment

 

On February 21, 2018, we entered into an amendment (the Real Estate Loan Amendments) to the Welltower real estate loan (Welltower Real Estate Loans) agreements.  The Real Estate Loan Amendments adjust the annual interest rate beginning February 15, 2018 to 12%, of which 7% will be paid in cash and 5% will be paid in kind.  Previously, these loans carried a 10.25% cash pay interest rate that increased by 0.25% annually on January 1.

 

In connection with the Real Estate Loan Amendments, we agreed to make commercially reasonable efforts to secure commitments by April 1, 2018 to repay no less than $105.0 million of the Welltower Real Estate Loans.  In the event we are unsuccessful securing such commitments or otherwise reducing the outstanding obligation of the Welltower Real Estate Loans, the cash pay component of the interest rate will be increased by approximately $2 million annually while the paid in kind component of the interest rate will be decreased by a corresponding amount.  As of April 1, 2018, we secured repayments or commitments totaling approximately $87 million.

MidCap Real Estate Loans

 

On March 30, 2018, we entered into two real estate loans with MidCap (MidCap Real Estate Loans) with combined available proceeds of $75.0 million, $73.0 million of which was drawn as of March 31, 2018.  The MidCap Real Estate Loans are secured by 18 skilled nursing facilities and are subject to a five-year term maturing on March 30, 2023.  The maturity of the MidCap Real Estate Loans will accelerate in the event the ABL Credit Facilities are repaid in full and terminated.  The loans, which are interest only in the first year, are subject to an annual interest rate equal to LIBOR (subject to a floor of 1.5%) plus an applicable margin of 5.85%.  Beginning April 1, 2019, mandatory principal payments shall commence with the balance of the loans to be repaid at maturity.  Proceeds from the MidCap Real Estate Loans were used to repay partially the Welltower Real Estate Loans.    

 

Industry Trends and Recent Regulatory Governmental Actions Affecting Revenue

 

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Proposed Rules

 

On April 27, 2018, CMS released proposed payment and quality measures rules for skilled nursing facilities prospective payment services (SNF PPS) Medicare Part A fee for services. CMS will accept public comments on the proposed revisions through June 26, 2018. Final rules are expected to be released the end of July 2018.  Under current law, CMS has to finalize these rules 60-days before the start of the federal fiscal year (October 1, 2018). The proposed rules address three specific issue areas, discussed below, related to fiscal year 2019 requirements. Additionally, the proposed rule introduced changes in the payment and case-mix methodology for Part A skilled nursing services, which the agency is considering to implement no sooner than the beginning of fiscal year 2020 (October 1, 2019).

 

Skilled Nursing Facility Medicare Part A Payment Rates

 

The proposed rule establishes a market basket increase of 2.4% as mandated under the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 effective October 1, 2018. Reimbursement for fiscal year 2019 will be based on the current payment methodology using the Resource Utilization Group, Version IV (RUG-IV) model with no significant changes in the patient classification system.

 

Skilled Nursing Facility Quality Measures:

 

Current performance measures mandated for the skilled nursing facility Quality Reporting Program (QRP) for fiscal year 2019 were established in the final SNF PPS rules adopted on August 4, 2017. The proposed rules summarize these requirements and solicit comments on the appropriateness of the current measures. No additional requirements are proposed for this fiscal year.  

 

Skilled Nursing Facility Value-Based Purchasing Program (SNF-VBP Program)

 

The Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014 (PAMA), enacted on April 1, 2014, authorized a SNF-VBP Program that requires CMS to adopt a SNF-VBP Program payment adjustment for skilled nursing facilities effective October 1, 2018.  In the fiscal year 2018 SNF PPS final rules issued by CMS on August 4, 2017, detailed instructions were provided for the SNF-VBP Program.  The SNF PPS final rule adopts the Skilled Nursing Facility Readmission Measure as the skilled nursing facility 30-day all-cause readmission measure for the SNF-VBP Program.  The proposed rules reiterate these instructions and affirm that effective October 1, 2018, skilled nursing facilities will experience a 2% withhold to fund the incentive payment pool. Simultaneously, based upon performance, skilled nursing facilities will have an opportunity to have their reimbursement rates adjusted for incentive payments based on their performance under the SNF-VBP Program.

 

All skilled nursing facilities will receive two scores, one for achievement and the other for improvement of their hospital readmission measure over the designated reporting period. All skilled nursing facilities will be ranked from high to low based on the higher of the two scores. The highest ranked facilities will receive the highest payments, and the lowest ranked facilities will receive payments that are less than what they otherwise would have received without the SNF-VBP Program.

New Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM)

 

In the proposed skilled nursing facility rules, CMS proposed to replace the existing case-mix classification methodology, the RUG-IV model, with a revised case mix methodology called the Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM). The proposed rules indicate an implementation date for these changes effective October 1, 2019. The PDPM is a variation of the proposed Resident Classification System Version 1 (RCS-1) concept that was the subject of an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking issued by CMS during 2017.  Like the RCS-I proposal, the PDPM is expected to better account for patient characteristics by relating payment to patients' conditions and clinical needs rather than on volume-based services.   The PDPM is required to be budget neutral relative to the current RUG-IV model such that aggregate Medicare outlays to skilled nursing facilities is not intended to change.  The new model is designed to more accurately reflect resource utilization without incentivizing inappropriate care delivery.

 

Decisions Regarding Skilled Nursing Facility Payment

 

In addition to setting the payment rules for skilled nursing facility services using the SNF-VBP Program, CMS annually adjusts its payment rules for other acute and post-acute service providers including hospitals and home health agencies using a similar SNF-VBP Program. It is important to understand the Medicare program and its reimbursement rates and rules are subject to frequent change. These include statutory and regulatory changes, rate adjustments (including retroactive adjustments), administrative or executive orders and government funding restrictions, all of which may materially adversely affect the rates at which Medicare reimburses us for our services.  Budget pressures often lead the federal government to reduce or place limits on reimbursement rates under Medicare. Implementation of these and other types of measures has in the past, and could in the future, result in substantial reductions in our revenue and operating margins.

 

Requirements of Participation

 

On October 4, 2016, CMS published a final rule to make major changes to improve the care and safety of residents in long-term care facilities that participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The policies in this final rule are targeted at reducing unnecessary hospital readmissions and infections, improving the quality of care, and strengthening safety measures for residents in these facilities.

 

Changes finalized in this rule include:

·

Strengthening the rights of long-term care facility residents.

·

Ensuring that long-term care facility staff members are properly trained on caring for residents with dementia and in preventing elder abuse.

·

Ensuring that long-term care facilities take into consideration the health of residents when making decisions on the kinds and levels of staffing a facility needs to properly take care of its residents.

·

Ensuring that staff members have the right skill sets and competencies to provide person-centered care to residents. The care plans developed for residents will take into consideration their goals of care and preferences.

·

Improving care planning, including discharge planning for all residents with involvement of the facility’s interdisciplinary team and consideration of the caregiver’s capacity, giving residents information they need for follow-up after discharge, and ensuring that instructions are transmitted to any receiving facilities or services.

·

Updating the long-term care facility’s infection prevention and control program, including requiring an infection prevention and control officer and an antibiotic stewardship program that includes antibiotic use protocols and a system to monitor antibiotic use.

 

The regulations became effective on November 28, 2016. CMS is implementing the regulations using a phased approach. The phases are as follows:

 

·

Phase 1: The regulations included in Phase 1 were implemented by November 28, 2016.

·

Phase 2: The regulations included in Phase 2 were implemented by November 28, 2017.

·

Phase 3: The regulations included in Phase 3 must be implemented by November 28, 2019.

 

Some regulatory sections are divided among more than one phase, and some of the more extensive new requirements have been placed in later phases to allow facilities time to successfully prepare to achieve compliance.

Table of Contents

 

 

The total costs associated with implementing the new regulations have been absorbed into our general operating costs.  Failure to comply with the new regulations could result in exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs and have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.  We have substantially complied with the regulations imposed through the Phase 1 and Phase 2 implementation.

 

Key Performance and Valuation Measures

 

In order to assess our financial performance between periods, we evaluate certain key performance and valuation measures for each of our operating segments separately for the periods presented.  Results and statistics may not be comparable period-over-period due to the impact of acquisitions and dispositions, or the impact of new and lost therapy contracts. 

 

The following is a glossary of terms for some of our key performance and valuation measures and non-GAAP measures:

 

“Actual Patient Days” is defined as the number of residents occupying a bed (or units in the case of an assisted/senior living center) for one qualifying day in that period.

 

“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as EBITDA adjusted for newly acquired or constructed businesses with start-up losses and other adjustments to provide a supplemental performance measure. See “ Reasons for Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure” for an explanation of the adjustments and a description of our uses of, and the limitations associated with, non-GAAP measures.

 

“Adjusted EBITDAR” is defined as EBITDAR adjusted for newly acquired or constructed businesses with start-up losses and other adjustments to provide a supplemental valuation measure. See “ Reasons for Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure” for an explanation of the adjustments and a description of our uses of, and the limitations associated with, non-GAAP measures.

 

“Available Patient Days” is defined as the number of available beds (or units in the case of an assisted/senior living center) multiplied by the number of days in that period.

 

“Average Daily Census” or “ADC” is the number of residents occupying a bed (or units in the case of an assisted/senior living center) over a period of time, divided by the number of calendar days in that period.

 

 “EBITDA” is defined as EBITDAR less lease expense. See “ Reasons for Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure” for an explanation of the adjustments and a description of our uses of, and the limitations associated with non-GAAP measures.

 

“EBITDAR” is defined as net income or loss attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. before net income or loss of non-controlling interests, net income or loss from discontinued operations, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense and lease expense. See “ Reasons for Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure” for an explanation of the adjustments and a description of our uses of, and the limitations associated with non-GAAP measures.

 

“Insurance” refers collectively to commercial insurance and managed care payor sources, including Medicare Advantage beneficiaries, but does not include managed care payors serving Medicaid residents, which are included in the Medicaid category.

 

“Occupancy Percentage” is measured as the percentage of Actual Patient Days relative to the Available Patient Days.

 

“Skilled Mix” refers collectively to Medicare and Insurance payor sources.

 

“Therapist Efficiency” is computed by dividing billable labor minutes related to patient care by total labor minutes for the period.

Reasons for Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure

 

The following discussion includes references to Adjusted EBITDAR, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures (collectively, Non-GAAP Financial Measures). A Non-GAAP Financial Measure is a numerical measure of a registrant’s historical or future financial performance, financial position and cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements) of the registrant; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable financial measure so calculated and presented. In this regard, GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. We have provided reconciliations of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

 

We believe the presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because these financial measures are useful for trending, analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business. By excluding certain expenses and other items that may not be indicative of our core business operating results, these Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

 

allow investors to evaluate our performance from management’s perspective, resulting in greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by us in our financial and operational decision making;

 

facilitate comparisons with prior periods and reflect the principal basis on which management monitors financial performance;

 

facilitate comparisons with the performance of others in the post-acute industry;

 

provide better transparency as to the measures used by management and others who follow our industry to estimate the value of our company; and

 

allow investors to view our financial performance and condition in the same manner as our significant landlords and lenders require us to report financial information to them in connection with determining our compliance with financial covenants.

 

We use Non-GAAP Financial Measures primarily as performance measures and believe that the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to them is net loss attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. We use Non-GAAP Financial Measures to assess the value of our business and the performance of our operating businesses, as well as the employees responsible for operating such businesses. Non-GAAP Financial Measures are useful in this regard because they do not include such costs as interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense which may vary from business unit to business unit depending upon such factors as the method used to finance the original purchase of the business unit or the tax law in the state in which a business unit operates. By excluding such factors when measuring financial performance, many of which are outside of the control of the employees responsible for operating our business units, we are better able to evaluate value and the operating performance of the

42


 

Table of Contents

 

business unit and the employees responsible for business unit performance. Consequently, we use these Non-GAAP Financial Measures to determine the extent to which our employees have met performance goals, and therefore the extent to which they may or may not be eligible for incentive compensation awards.

 

We also use Non-GAAP Financial Measures in our annual budget process. We believe these Non-GAAP Financial Measures facilitate internal comparisons to historical operating performance of prior periods and external comparisons to competitors’ historical operating performance. The presentation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures is consistent with our past practice and we believe these measures further enable investors and analysts to compare current non-GAAP measures with non-GAAP measures presented in prior periods.

 

Although we use Non-GAAP Financial Measures as financial measures to assess value and the performance of our business, the use of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures is limited because they do not consider certain material costs necessary to operate the business.  These costs include our lease expense (only in the case of EBITDAR and Adjusted EBITDAR), the cost to service debt, the depreciation and amortization associated with our long-lived assets, losses on early extinguishment of debt, transaction costs, long-lived asset impairment charges, federal and state income tax expenses, the operating results of our discontinued businesses and the income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.  Because Non-GAAP Financial Measures do not consider these important elements of our cost structure, a user of our financial information who relies on Non-GAAP Financial Measures as the only measures of our performance could draw an incomplete or misleading conclusion regarding our financial performance. Consequently, a user of our financial information should consider net loss attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. as an important measure of our financial performance because it provides the most complete measure of our performance.

 

Other companies may define Non-GAAP Financial Measures differently and, as a result, our Non-GAAP Financial Measures may not be directly comparable to those of other companies.  Non-GAAP Financial Measures do not represent net income (loss), as defined by GAAP. Non-GAAP Financial Measures should be considered in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP Financial Measures.

 

We use the following Non-GAAP Financial Measures that we believe are useful to investors as key valuation and operating performance measures:

 

EBITDA

 

We believe EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it helps investors evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense) and our asset base (depreciation and amortization expense) from our operating results.  In addition, financial covenants in our debt agreements use EBITDA as a measure of compliance.

 

Adjustments to EBITDA

 

We adjust EBITDA when evaluating our performance because we believe that the exclusion of certain additional items described below provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our ongoing operating performance, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, when combined with GAAP net loss attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc., and EBITDA, is beneficial to an investor’s complete understanding of our operating performance. In addition, such adjustments are substantially similar to the adjustments to EBITDA provided for in the financial covenant calculations contained in our lease and debt agreements.

 

We adjust EBITDA for the following items:

 

·

Loss on early extinguishment of debt. We recognize losses on the early extinguishment of debt when we refinance our debt prior to its original term, requiring us to write-off any unamortized deferred financing fees.  We exclude the effect of losses or gains recorded on the early extinguishment of debt because we believe these gains and losses do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of our operating businesses.

 

43


 

Table of Contents

 

·

Other loss.  We primarily use this income statement caption to capture gains and losses on the sale or disposition of assets.  We exclude the effect of such gains and losses because we believe they do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of our operating businesses.

 

·

Transaction costs. In connection with our restructuring, acquisition and disposition transactions, we incur costs consisting of investment banking, legal, transaction-based compensation and other professional service costs.  We exclude restructuring, acquisition and disposition related transaction costs expensed during the period because we believe these costs do not reflect the underlying performance of our operating businesses.

 

·

Long-lived asset impairments.  We exclude non-cash long-lived asset impairment charges because we believe including them does not reflect the ongoing performance of our operating businesses.  Additionally, such impairment charges represent accelerated depreciation expense, and depreciation expense is also excluded from EBITDA.

 

·

Severance and restructuring.  We exclude severance costs from planned reduction in force initiatives associated with restructuring activities intended to adjust our cost structure in response to changes in the business environment.  We believe these costs do not reflect the underlying performance of our operating businesses.  We do not exclude severance costs that are not associated with such restructuring activities.

Losses of newly acquired, constructed or divested businesses.  The acquisition and construction of new businesses is an element of our growth strategy.  Many of the businesses we acquire have a history of operating losses and continue to generate operating losses in the months that follow our acquisition.  Newly constructed or developed businesses also generate losses while in their start-up phase.  We view these losses as both temporary and an expected component of our long-term investment in the new venture.  We adjust these losses when computing Adjusted EBITDA in order to better analyze the performance of our mature ongoing business.  The activities of such businesses are adjusted when computing Adjusted EBITDA until such time as a new business generates positive Adjusted EBITDA.  The operating performance of new businesses is no longer adjusted when computing Adjusted EBITDA beginning in the period in which a new business generates positive Adjusted EBITDA and all periods thereafter.  The divestiture of underperforming or non-strategic facilities is also an element of our business strategy.  We eliminate the results of divested facilities beginning in the quarter in which they become divested.  We view the losses associated with the wind-down of such divested facilities as not indicative of the performance of our ongoing operating business.

 

·

Stock-based compensation.  We exclude stock-based compensation expense because it does not result in an outlay of cash and such non-cash expenses do not reflect the underlying performance of our operating businesses.

 

·

Other Items.  From time to time we incur costs or realize gains that we do not believe reflect the underlying performance of our operating businesses.  In the current reporting period, we incurred the following expenses that we believe are non-recurring in nature and do not reflect the ongoing operating performance of our operating businesses.

 

(1)

Regulatory defense and related costs – We exclude the costs of investigating and defending the inherited legal matters associated with prior transactions .  We believe these costs are non-recurring in nature as they will no longer be recognized following the final settlement of these matters. Also, we do not believe the excluded costs reflect the underlying performance of our operating businesses.

 

Adjusted EBITDAR

 

We use Adjusted EBITDAR as one measure in determining the value of prospective acquisitions or divestitures.  Adjusted EBITDAR is also a commonly used measure to estimate the enterprise value of businesses in the healthcare industry.  In addition, financial covenants in our lease agreements use Adjusted EBITDAR as a measure of compliance.

 

The adjustments made and previously described in the computation of Adjusted EBITDA are also made when computing Adjusted EBITDAR.  See the reconciliation of net loss attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. included herein.

Results of Operations

 

Same-store Presentation

   

We continue to execute on a strategic plan which includes expansion in core markets and operating segments which we believe will enhance the value of our business in the ever-changing landscape of national healthcare.  We are also focused on “right-sizing” our operations to fit that new environment and to divest underperforming and non-strategic assets, many of which came to us as part of larger acquisitions in recent years to achieve the net overall growth strategy. 

 

We define our same-store inpatient operations as those skilled nursing and assisted living centers which have been operated by us, in a steady-state, for each comparable period in this Results of Operations discussion.  We exclude from that definition those skilled nursing and assisted living facilities recently acquired that were not operated by us for the entire period, as well as those that were divested prior to or during the most recent period presented.  In cases where we are developing new skilled nursing or assisted living centers, those operations are excluded from our “same-store” inpatient operations until the revenue driven by operating patient census is stable in the comparable periods. 

 

Since the nature of our rehabilitation therapy services operations experiences high volume of both new and terminated contracts in an annual cycle, and the scale and significance of those contracts can be very different to both the revenue and operating expenses of that business, a same-store presentation based solely on the contract or gym count does not provide an accurate depiction of the business.  Accordingly, we do not reference same-store figures in this MD&A with regard to that business. 

 

The volume of services delivered in our other services businesses can also be affected by strategic transactional activity.  To the extent there are businesses to be excluded to achieve same-store comparability those will be noted in the context of the Results of Operations discussion. 

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all related amendments (ASC 606).  The requirements of ASC 606 were effective for us beginning January 1, 2018 and were applied using the modified retrospective method.  Because prior year periods were not restated through this methodology, the new presentation could affect the direct, same-store comparability of revenue and operating expense, however, there is no impact to comparability of EBITDA for all periods presented.  See Note 4 – “ Net   Revenues and Accounts Receivable. ”  The impact of the adoption of ASC 606 will be noted in these Results of Operations where comparability issues exist.

Net Revenues

 

Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 decreased by $88.1 million, or 6.3%, as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2017.   

 

Inpatient Services – Revenue decreased $75.6 million, or 6.3%, in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017. On a same-store basis, excluding 31 divested underperforming facilities and the development of one additional facility on comparability, and the $21.1 million revenue reduction for the adoption of ASC 606, inpatient services revenue declined $16.3 million, or 1.4%.  This same-store decrease is principally due to a decline in the occupancy and skilled mix of legacy Genesis inpatient facilities, partially offset by increased payment rates.  We attribute the decline in occupancy and skilled mix principally to the impact of healthcare reforms resulting in lower lengths of stay among our skilled patient population and lower admissions caused by initiatives among acute care providers, managed care payers and conveners to divert certain skilled nursing referrals to home health or other community based care settings.

 

For an expanded discussion regarding the factors influencing our census decline, see Item 1, “ Business – Recent Legislative, Regulatory and other Governmental Actions Affecting Revenue ” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC, as well as “ Key Performance and Valuation Measures ” in this MD&A for quantification of the census trends and revenue per patient day.

Table of Contents

 

 

Rehabilitation Therapy Services – Revenue decreased $11.9 million, or 7.6% comparing the three months ended March 31, 2018 with the same period in 2017.  Of that decrease, $23.4 million is due to lost contract business, offset by $18.4 million attributed to new contracts.  The adoption of ASC 606 resulted in a reduction of revenue of $3.3 million.  The remaining decrease of $3.6 million is principally due to reduced volume of services provided to existing customers due to the reduction in lengths of stay and skilled patient populations impacting the entire industry, and partially offset with price increases to certain existing customers. 

 

Other Services – Revenue decreased $0.6 million, or 1.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017. Our other services revenue, comprised mainly of our physician services and staffing services businesses, was flat period over period, with the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 resulting in the net decrease of revenue.

 

EBITDA

 

EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2018 decreased by $48.6 million, or 45.5%, as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2017.  Excluding the impact of loss on extinguishment of debt, other loss (income), transaction costs and long-lived asset impairments, EBITDA decreased $9.9 million, or 8.3% when compared with the same period in 2017.  The adoption of ASC 606 did not affect comparability of EBITDA or EBITDA as adjusted among the periods presented. The contributing factors for this net decrease are described in our discussion below of segment results and corporate overhead. 

 

Inpatient Services – EBITDA decreased by $34.7 million, or 26.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017.  Excluding the impact of other loss and long-lived asset impairments, EBITDA as adjusted decreased $14.9 million, or 10.6% when compared with the same period in 2017.  On a same store basis, the inpatient EBITDA as adjusted decreased $14.1 million.  Of that same-store decline, our self-insurance programs resulted in an increase of $11.6 million EBITDA as adjusted in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017.  While our self-insurance programs are performing as anticipated with reduced volumes related to the implementation of our portfolio optimization strategies and within normal claims reporting patterns of our same-store operations, we are also seeing reduced pressures in particular in our general and professional liability claims experience.  We believe this is due to the combination of tort reforms in key states that have had historically high rates of claims volume and severity as well as a recognition by the plaintiffs firms that this industry cannot sustain the level of claims historically brought by them.  Reductions in salaries, wages and benefits, beyond those related to self-insured workers compensation and health benefits, are principally attributed to the transition from in-house to fully outsourced dietary support functions in the second fiscal quarter of 2017. That transition resulted in a shift of a commensurate amount of cost to purchased services expense in other operating expenses.  On a same-store basis, lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017 decreased $2.1 million.  This reduction is principally due to the benefit of one-quarter of the Sabra rent reduction, offset by the non-cash straight-line adjustments to those operating leases.  See “ Restructuring Transactions – Sabra Master Leases ” in this MD&A.  The remaining $27.8 million decrease in EBITDA, as adjusted, of the segment is attributed to the continued pressures on skilled mix and overall occupancy of our inpatient facilities described above under “ Net Revenues ,” and accelerating nursing wage inflation.  Nursing wage inflation increased 2.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017. 

 

Rehabilitation Therapy Services – EBITDA increased by $0.9 million, or 4.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017.  Excluding the impact of other loss EBITDA as adjusted increased $0.2 million, or 0.9% when compared with the same period in 2017.  Lost therapy contracts exceeded new contracts by $0.7 million, and contraction of services to existing customers referenced above in “Net Revenues” resulted in an additional decrease in EBITDA as adjusted of $1.3 million.  Startup losses of our operations in China for the three months ended March 31, 2018 decreased $1.1 million as compared with the same period in 2017.  The remaining increase of EBITDA as adjusted of $1.1 million is principally attributed to overhead cost reductions, favorable average costs of labor and rate increases, partially offset by therapist efficiency which declined to 67.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared with 68.7% in the comparable period in the prior year.  

 

Currently, we operate through affiliates in China a total of twelve locations comprised of the three rehabilitation clinics in Guangzhou, Shanghai and Hong Kong, a rehabilitation facility, and inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services in seven hospital joint ventures and one nursing home.  Startup and development costs of these Chinese ventures are expected to exceed revenues in fiscal 2018.

Other Services — EBITDA remained flat for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017. 

 

Corporate and Eliminations — EBITDA decreased $14.8 million, or 31.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017.  EBITDA of our corporate function includes other income, charges, gains or losses associated with transactions that in our chief operating decision maker’s view are outside of the scope of our reportable segments.  These other transactions, which are separately captioned in our consolidated statements of operations and described more fully above in our Reasons for Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure, contributed $19.6 million of the net decrease in EBITDA.  Corporate overhead costs decreased $5.2 million, or 11.6%, in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017. This decrease is principally due to the focus on cost containment to address market pressures on our business. The remaining decrease in EBITDA of $0.4 million is primarily the result of a reduction in investment earnings from our unconsolidated affiliates accounted for on the equity method.   

 

Loss on early extinguishment of debt – On March 6, 2018, we entered into a new asset based lending facility agreement, qualifying as an extinguishment of the previous revolving credit facility, and resulting in the write-off of $10.3 million of deferred financing fees related to the previous revolving credit facility.  See Note 3 – “ Significant Transactions and Events – Restructuring Transactions ” and Note 8 – “ Long-term Debt. ”  

   

Other loss — Consistent with our strategy to divest assets in non-strategic markets, we incur losses and generate gains resulting from the sale, transition or closure of underperforming operations and assets.  Other loss was de minimis for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  Other loss recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was a net $9.0 million, attributable primarily to the sale or imminent sale of 25 skilled nursing facilities in that period. 

 

Transaction costs — In the normal course of business, we evaluate strategic acquisition, disposition and business development opportunities. The costs to pursue these opportunities, when incurred, vary from period to period depending on the nature of the transaction pursued and if those transactions are ever completed. Transaction costs incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $12.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

 

Long-lived asset impairments — In the three months ended March 31, 2018 we recognized impairments of property and equipment of $28.4 million.  For more information about the conditions of the business which contributed to these impairments, see “ Industry Trends and Recent Regulatory Governmental Actions Affecting Revenue ” and “ Financial Condition and Liquidity Considerations ” in this MD&A, as well as Note 14 – “ Asset Impairment Charges. ”  

 

Other Expense

 

The following discussion applies to the consolidated expense categories between consolidated EBITDA and (loss) income from continuing operations of all reportable segments, other services, corporate and eliminations in our consolidating statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017. 

 

Depreciation and amortization — Each of our reportable segments, other services and corporate overhead have depreciating property, plant and equipment, including depreciation on leased properties accounted for as capital leases or as a financing obligation. Our rehabilitation therapy services and other services have identifiable intangible assets which amortize over the estimated life of those identifiable assets.  Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $12.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017.  The three months ended March 31, 2017 included $2.2 million of amortization expense related to intangible management contracts of third party operations in Texas.  Those contracts became impaired during third quarter 2017 when the Texas MPAP program failed to be renewed, resulting in $0 amortization expense in the three months ended March 31, 2018.  Depreciation and amortization expense in the three months ended March 31, 2018 decreased by $3.6 million for the combined impact of impairments of property and equipment and reassessed useful lives of certain long-lived assets.  The remaining decrease of $7.1 million is principally due to divestiture activity in the inpatient services segment.

 

Interest expense — Interest expense includes the cash interest and non-cash adjustments required to account for our debt instruments, as well as the expense associated with leases accounted for as capital leases or financing obligations.  Interest expense

decreased $9.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period 2017.  On a same store basis, interest expense is down $10.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017.  That decrease is principally attributed to the net impact of the Restructuring Transactions, which lowered the debt service payments required under the Welltower Master Lease Amendment, which is accounted for as a financing obligation, and resulted in a lower effective interest rate.  See “ Restructuring Transactions ” in this MD&A. 

 

Income tax expense — For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recorded an income tax expense of $0.3 million from continuing operations representing an effective tax rate of (0.3)% compared to an income tax expense of $1.3 million from continuing operations, representing an effective tax rate of (1.6)% for the same period in 2017.  There is a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, excluding our deferred tax asset on our Bermuda captive insurance company’s discounted unpaid loss reserve.  Previously, in assessing the requirement for, and amount of, a valuation allowance in accordance with the standard, we determined it was more likely than not we would not realize our deferred tax assets and established a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.  As of March 31, 2018, we have determined that the valuation allowance is still necessary.

 

Net Loss Attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc.

 

The following discussion applies to categories between loss from continuing operations and net loss attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. in our consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the same period in 2017.  

 

Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests — On February 2, 2015, FC-GEN combined with Skilled Healthcare Group, Inc. and the combined results were consolidated with approximately 42.0% direct noncontrolling economic interest shown as noncontrolling interest in the financial statements of the combined entity.  The direct noncontrolling economic interest is in the form of Class C common stock of FC-GEN that are exchangeable on a 1-to-1 basis to our public shares. The direct noncontrolling economic interest will continue to decrease as Class C common stock of FC-GEN are exchanged for public shares.  Since the combination, there have been conversions of 3.7 million Class C common stock, leaving a remaining direct noncontrolling economic interest of 38.0%.  For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, a loss of $40.6 million and $33.4 million, respectively, has been attributed to the Class C common stock. 

 

In addition to the noncontrolling interests attributable to the Class C common stock holders, our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all entities controlled by us through our ownership of a majority voting interest and the accounts of any variable interest entities (VIEs) where we are subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE's activities, or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns, or both.  We adjust net income attributable to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. to exclude the net income attributable to the third party ownership interests of the VIEs.  For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, income of $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, has been attributed to these unaffiliated third parties.

Net cash used in operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2018 increased $50.7 million compared with the same period in 2017.  The increase in cash used in operations is principally due to a decline in trade receivable collections of $21.2

Net cash used in investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $17.9 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $19.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017.  There were no asset acquisitions or sales in the three months ended March 31, 2018 or 2017.  Routine capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2018 decreased by $2.8 million as compared with the same period in the prior year.  The remaining incremental use of cash in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in the prior year of $1.0 million was due primarily to HUD escrow funding for the refinancing of a skilled nursing facility.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $87.4 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $22.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017.  The net increase in cash provided by financing activities of $110.4 million is principally attributed to debt borrowings exceeding debt repayments in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017.  In the three months ended March 31, 2018, we had proceeds from the issuance of debt of $561.9 million, which includes $438.0 million from the ABL Credit Facilities, $73.0 million from the MidCap Real Estate Loans, $40.0 million from the 2018 Term Loan and $10.9 million from the refinancing of a bridge loan with a HUD insured loan.  There were no proceeds from debt issuances in the three months ended March 31, 2017.  Repayment of long-term debt in the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $451.2 million compared to $4.1 million in the same period of the prior year.  The increase in cash used was due primarily to $363.2 million in the retirement of our prior Revolving Credit Facilities, $69.8 million in the paydown of Welltower Real Estate Loans and $9.9 million in the payoff of a bridge loan with the proceeds from a HUD-insured refinancing.  The remaining increase in cash used to repay long-term debt of $4.2 million relates to an increase in routine debt payments. In the three months ended March 31, 2018, we had net repayments under the revolving credit facilities of $5.7 million as compared with $24.0 million of net repayments under the revolving credit facilities in the same period in 2017.  In the three months ended March 31, 2018, we paid debt issuance costs of $16.5 million, which includes $13.6 million in fees for the ABL Credit Facilities and $2.9 million in fees for the MidCap Real Estate Loans.  In the three months ended March 31, 2018, we paid debt settlement costs of $1.0 million in the retirement of our prior Revolving Credit Facilities. In the three months ended March 31, 2017, we received $5.2 million in tenant improvement allowances from landlords.

 

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and borrowings under our ABL Credit Facilities.

 

The objectives of our capital planning strategy are to ensure we maintain adequate liquidity and flexibility. Pursuing and achieving those objectives allows us to support the execution of our operating and strategic plans and weather temporary disruptions in the capital markets and general business environment.  Maintaining adequate liquidity is a function of our results of operations, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and our available borrowing capacity.

 

At March 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $57.7 million and available borrowings under our ABL Credit Facilities of $102.5 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we maintained liquidity sufficient to meet our working capital, capital expenditure and development activities. 

 

Restructuring Transactions

 

Overview

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, we entered into a number of agreements, amendments and new financing facilities further described below in an effort to strengthen significantly our capital structure.  In total, the Restructuring Transactions are estimated to reduce our annual cash fixed charges by approximately $62.0 million beginning in 2018 and provided $70.0 million of additional cash and borrowing availability, increasing our liquidity and financial flexibility.

 

In connection with the Restructuring Transactions, we entered into a new asset based lending facility agreement, replacing our prior Revolving Credit Facilities and eliminating its forbearance agreement.  Also in connection with the Restructuring Transactions, we amended the financial covenants in all of our material loan agreements and all but two of our material master leases.  Financial covenants beginning in 2018 were amended to account for changes in our capital structure as a result of the Restructuring

52


 

Table of Contents

 

Transactions and to account for the current business climate.  We received waivers from the counterparties to two of our material master leases, for which agreements to amend financial covenants were not attained, with respect to compliance with financial covenants from December 31, 2017 through at least March 31, 2019. 

 

Asset Based Lending Facilities

 

On March 6, 2018, we entered into a new asset based lending facility agreement with MidCap.  The agreement provides for a $555 million asset based lending facility comprised of (a) a $325 million first lien term loan facility, (b) a $200 million first lien revolving credit facility and (c) a $30 million delayed draw term loan facility. 

 

The ABL Credit Facilities have a five-year term and proceeds were used to replace and repay in full our existing $525 million Revolving Credit Facilities scheduled to mature on February 2, 2020.  The ABL Credit Facilities include a springing maturity clause that would accelerate its maturity 90 days prior to the maturity of the Term Loan Agreements, Welltower Real Estate Loans or MidCap Real Estate Loans, in the event those agreements are not extended or refinanced.

 

Borrowings under the term loan and revolving credit facility components of the ABL Credit Facilities bear interest at a 90-day LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 0.5%) plus an applicable margin of 6%.  Borrowings under the delayed draw component bear interest at a 90-day LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 1%) plus an applicable margin of 11%. Borrowing levels under the term loan and revolving credit facility components of the ABL Credit Facilities are limited to a borrowing base that is computed based upon the level of eligible accounts receivable.

 

The ABL Credit Facilities contain representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, financial covenants and events of default and security interests that are customarily required for similar financings.

 

Term Loan Amendment

 

On March 6, 2018, we entered into an amendment to the term loan with affiliates of Welltower and Omega (the Term Loan Amendment) pursuant to which we borrowed an additional $40 million to be used for certain debt repayment and general corporate purposes (the 2018 Term Loan). 

 

The 2018 Term Loan will mature July 29, 2020 and bears interest at a rate equal to 10.0% per annum, with up to 5% per annum to be paid in kind.  The Term Loan Amendment also changes the interest rate applicable to the initial loans funded on July 29, 2016 to be equal to 14% per annum, with up to 9% per annum to be paid in kind. 

 

Among other things, the Term Loan Amendment eliminates any principal amortization payments on any of the loans prior to maturity and modifies the financial covenants beginning in 2018.

 

Welltower Master Lease Amendment

 

On February 21, 2018, we entered into a definitive agreement with Welltower to amend the Welltower Master Lease (the Welltower Master Lease Amendment).  The Welltower Master Lease Amendment reduces our annual base rent payment by $35 million effective retroactively as of January 1, 2018, reduces the annual rent escalator from approximately 2.9% to 2.5% on April 1, 2018 and further reduces the annual rent escalator to 2.0% beginning January 1, 2019.  In addition, the Welltower Master Lease Amendment extends the initial term of the master lease by five years to January 31, 2037 and extends the renewal term of the master lease by five years to December 31, 2048.  The Welltower Master Lease Amendment also provides a potential upward rent reset, conditioned upon achievement of certain upside operating metrics, effective January 1, 2023.  If triggered, the incremental rent from the rent reset is capped at $35 million.

 

Omnibus Agreement

 

On February 21, 2018, we entered into an Omnibus Agreement with Welltower and Omega, pursuant to which Welltower and Omega committed to provide up to $40 million in new term loans and amend the current term loan to, among other things,

53


 

Table of Contents

 

accommodate a refinancing of our existing asset based credit facility, in each case subject to certain conditions, including the completion of a restructuring of certain of our other material debt and lease obligations.  See Term Loan Amendment above.

 

The Omnibus Agreement also provides that upon satisfying certain conditions, including raising new capital that is used to pay down certain indebtedness owed to Welltower and Omega, (a) $50 million of outstanding indebtedness owed to Welltower will be written off and (b) we may request conversion of not more than $50 million of the outstanding balance of our Welltower real estate loans into equity.  If the proposed equity conversion would result in any adverse REIT qualification, status or compliance consequences to Welltower, then the debt that would otherwise be converted to equity shall instead be converted into a loan incurring paid in kind interest at 2% per annum compounded quarterly, with a term of ten years commencing on the date the applicable conditions precedent to the equity conversion have been satisfied.  Moreover, we agreed to support Welltower in connection with the sale of certain of Welltower’s interests in facilities covered by the Welltower Master Lease, including negotiating and entering into definitive new master lease agreements with third party buyers.

 

In connection with the Omnibus Agreement, we agreed to issue warrants to Welltower and Omega to purchase 900,000 shares and 600,000 shares, respectively, of our Class A Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $1.33 per share.  Issuance of the warrant to Welltower is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.  The warrants may be exercised at any time during the period commencing six months from the date of issuance and ending five years from the date of issuance. 

 

Welltower Real Estate Loans Amendment

 

On February 21, 2018, we entered into an amendment (the Real Estate Loan Amendments) to the Welltower real estate loan (Welltower Real Estate Loans) agreements.  The Real Estate Loan Amendments adjust the annual interest rate beginning February 15, 2018 to 12%, of which 7% will be paid in cash and 5% will be paid in kind.  Previously, these loans carried a 10.25% cash pay interest rate that increased by 0.25% annually on January 1.

 

In connection with the Real Estate Loan Amendments, we agreed to make commercially reasonable efforts to secure commitments by April 1, 2018 to repay no less than $105.0 million of the Welltower Real Estate Loans.  In the event we are unsuccessful securing such commitments or otherwise reducing the outstanding obligation of the Welltower Real Estate Loans, the cash pay component of the interest rate will be increased by approximately $2.0 million annually while the paid in kind component of the interest rate will be decreased by a corresponding amount.  As of April 1, 2018, we secured repayments or commitments totaling approximately $87 million.

 

MidCap Real Estate Loans

 

On March 30, 2018, we entered into the MidCap Real Estate Loans which have combined available proceeds of $75.0 million, $73.0 million of which was drawn as of March 31, 2018.  The MidCap Real Estate Loans are secured by 18 skilled nursing facilities and are subject to a five-year term maturing on March 30, 2023.  The maturity of the MidCap Real Estate Loans will accelerate in the event the ABL Credit Facilities are repaid in full and terminated.  The loans, which are interest only in the first year, are subject to an annual interest rate equal to LIBOR (subject to a floor of 1.5%) plus an applicable margin of 5.85%.  Beginning April 1, 2019, mandatory principal payments shall commence with the balance of the loans to be repaid at maturity.  Proceeds from the MidCap Real Estate Loans were used to repay partially the Welltower Real Estate Loans.    

 

Sabra Master Leases

In 2017, we entered into a definitive agreement with Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. (Sabra) resulting in permanent and unconditional annual cash rent savings of $19 million, which bacame effective January 1, 2018.  Sabra continues to pursue and we continue to support Sabra’s previously announced sale of our leased assets.  At the closing of such sales, we expect to enter into lease agreements with new landlords for a majority of the assets currently leased with Sabra.

Other Financing Activities

 

HUD Insured Refinancings

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we completed one mortgage refinancing through HUD totaling $10.9 million and retired fully a real estate loan of $9.9 million.

 

Divestiture of Non-Strategic Facilities

 

Consistent with our strategy to divest assets in non-strategic markets, we have exited the inpatient operations of six skilled nursing facilities in two states, including:

 

·

The closure of one skilled nursing facility located in Massachusetts on February 28, 2018 that was subject to a master lease agreement with Welltower.  A loss was recognized totaling $0.3 million.

·

The sale of five skilled nursing facilities located in Massachusetts and Kentucky on April 1, 2018 that were subject to a master lease agreement with Sabra .  A gain was recognized totaling $0.3 million.

 

  Financial Covenants

 

The ABL Credit Facilities, the Term Loan Agreement and the Welltower Real Estate Loans (collectively, the Credit Facilities) each contain a number of financial, affirmative and negative covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and maximum capital expenditures.  At March 31, 2018, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants contained in the Credit Facilities. 

 

We have master lease agreements with Welltower, Sabra and Omega (collectively, the Master Lease Agreements).  Our Master Lease Agreements each contain a number of financial, affirmative and negative covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and minimum liquidity.  At March 31, 2018, we were in compliance with the covenants contained in the Master Lease Agreements. 

 

We have a master lease agreement with Second Spring Healthcare Investments involving 64 of our facilities.  We did not meet a financial covenant contained in this master lease agreement at March 31, 2018.  We received a waiver for this covenant through March 31, 2018 and an agreement to waive this covenant under certain conditions through March 31, 2019.

 

We have a master lease agreement with Cindat Best Years Welltower JV LLC involving 28 of our facilities.  We did not meet certain financial covenants contained in this master lease agreement at March 31, 2018.  We received a waiver for this covenant breach through October 24, 2019. 

 

At March 31, 2018, we did not meet certain financial covenants contained in seven leases related to 45 of our facilities, which are not included in the Restructuring Transactions.  We are and expect to continue to be current in the timely payment of our obligations under such leases.  These leases do not have cross default provisions, nor do they trigger cross default provisions in any of our other loan or lease agreements.  We will continue to work with the related credit parties to amend such leases and the related financial covenants.  We do not believe the breach of such financial covenants has a material adverse impact on us at March 31, 2018.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

We are exposed to the credit risk of our third-party customers, many of whom are in similar lines of business as us and are exposed to the same systemic industry risks of operations, as we, resulting in a concentration of risk.  These include organizations that utilize our rehabilitation services, staffing services and physician service offerings, engaged in similar business activities or having economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations, including those to us, to be similarly affected by changes in regulatory and systemic industry conditions.

Table of Contents

 

Management assesses its exposure to loss on accounts at the customer level.  The greatest concentration of risk exists in our rehabilitation services business where we have over 200 distinct customers, many being chain operators with more than one location.  The four largest customers of our rehabilitation services business comprise $58.1 million, approximately 52%, of the net outstanding contract receivables in the rehabilitation services business at March 31, 2018.  One customer, which is a related party of ours, comprises $32.0 million, approximately 28%, of the net outstanding contract receivables in the rehabilitation services business at March 31, 2018.  An adverse event impacting the solvency of several of these large customers resulting in their insolvency or other economic distress would have a material impact on us.

 

Financial Condition and Liquidity Considerations

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

In evaluating our ability to continue as a going concern, management considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months following the date our financial statements were issued (May 10, 2018). Management considered the recent results of operations as well as our current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and our conditional and unconditional obligations due before May 10, 2019.  Based upon such considerations, management determined that we are able to continue as a going concern for 12 months following the date of issuance of these financial statements (May 10, 2018).

 

Our results of operations have been negatively impacted by the persistent pressure of healthcare reforms enacted in recent years.  This challenging operating environment has been most acute in our inpatient segment, but also has had a detrimental effect on our rehabilitation therapy segment and its customers.  In recent years, we have implemented a number of cost mitigation strategies to offset the negative financial implications of this challenging operating environment.  These strategies have been successful in recent years, however, the negative impact of continued reductions in skilled patient admissions, shortening lengths of stay, escalating wage inflation and professional liability losses, combined with the increased cost of capital through escalating lease payments accelerated in 2017. 

 

In response to these issues, we entered into a number of agreements, amendments and new financing facilities described under Restructuring Transactions above.  In total, these agreements and amendments are estimated to reduce our annual cash fixed charges by approximately $62.0 million beginning in 2018.  The new financing agreements provided $70.0 million of additional cash and borrowing availability, increasing our liquidity and financial flexibility.  In connection with the Restructuring Transactions, we entered into the ABL Credit Facilities agreement, replacing our prior Revolving Credit Facilities.  Also in connection with the Restructuring Transactions, we amended the financial covenants in all of our material loan agreements and all but two of our material master leases.  Financial covenants beginning in 2018 were amended to account for changes in our capital structure as a result of the Restructuring Transactions and to account for the current business climate.  We received waivers from the counterparties to two of our material master leases, for which agreements to amend financial covenants were not attained, with respect to compliance with financial covenants from March 31, 2018 through at least March 31, 2019. 

 

Risk and Uncertainties

 

Should we fail to comply with our debt and lease covenants at a future measurement date, we could, absent necessary and timely waivers and/or amendments, be in default under certain of our existing debt and lease agreements. To the extent any cross-default provisions may apply, the default could have an even more significant impact on our financial position.

 

Although we are in compliance and project to be in compliance with our material debt and lease covenants through June 30, 2019, the ongoing uncertainty related to the impact of healthcare reform initiatives may have an adverse impact on our ability to remain in compliance with our covenants. Such uncertainty includes, changes in reimbursement patterns, patient admission patterns, bundled payment arrangements, as well as potential changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 currently being considered in Congress, among others.

 

There can be no assurance that the confluence of these and other factors will not impede our ability to meet our debt and lease covenants in the future.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates. To the extent these interest rates increase, our interest expense will increase, which will make our interest payments and funding other fixed costs more expensive, and our available cash flow may be adversely affected. We routinely monitor risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates and consider the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge these exposures. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes nor do we enter into energy or commodity contracts.

 

Interest Rate Exposure—Interest Rate Risk Management

 

Our ABL Credit Facilities and MidCap Real Estate Loans expose us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates.  As of March 31, 2018, there is no derivative financial instrument in place to limit that exposure.

 

A 1% increase in the applicable interest rate on our variable-rate debt would result in an approximately $4.8 million increase in our annual interest expense. 

 

Our investments in marketable securities as of March 31, 2018 consisted of investment grade government and corporate debt securities and money market funds that have maturities of five years or less. These investments expose us to investment income risk, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. and international interest rates and securities markets risk. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive from our investments without significantly increasing risk. Interest rates are near historic lows, with a risk of interest rates increasing before our current investments mature.  While we have the ability and intent to hold our investments to maturity today, rising interest rates could impact our ability to liquidate our investments for a profit and could adversely affect the cost of replacing those investments at the time of maturity with investment of similar return and risk profile.  Despite the complex nature of exposure to the securities markets, given the low risk profile, we do not believe a 1% increase in interest rates alone would have a material impact on our net investment income returns.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), management has evaluated, 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.

Table of Contents

 

Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding our required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.

 

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of end of the period covered by this report, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at that reasonable assurance level.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Management determined that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Exhibit 10.1

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

 

This Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated March 2, 2015, (the “Effective Date”) by and between Genesis Administrative Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and Paul Bach (“Executive”).

 

WITNESSETH

 

WHEREAS, prior to the Effective Date, the Executive was employed by the Company pursuant to an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement effective as of April 1, 2011, as amended (the “Current Employment Agreement”);

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1. Offer and Acceptance of Employment. The Company hereby agrees to continue to employ Executive as Executive Vice President and Executive's principal place of business shall be located at 600S Broad Street Kennett Square PA, 19348; provided that from time to time, Executive will travel to the Company’s (or its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’) other offices or locations, as may be necessary, appropriate or convenient to perform Executive’s duties.  Executive accepts such employment and agrees to perform the customary responsibilities of such position during the term of this Agreement. Executive will perform such other duties as may from time to time be reasonably assigned to Executive by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or his designee (the “CEO”), provided such duties are consistent with and do not interfere with the performance of the duties described herein and are of a type customarily performed by persons of similar title with similar companies. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Executive from serving as a director, trustee, officer of, or partner in, any other firm, trust, corporation or partnership or from pursuing personal investments, as long as such activities do not interfere with Executive's performance of Executive's duties hereunder or violate the terms of Section 6 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a transfer of the Executive’s employment among the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates, or to any businesses operated by them (all such entities together, “Company Group”) shall not be deemed to be a termination of the Executive’s employment, and the entity to which Executive’s employment is transferred shall thereafter be deemed to be the Company for purposes of this Agreement. Executive further agrees to serve as an officer of Genesis Healthcare, Inc. and any other member of the Company Group.

 

2. Period of Employment.

 

(a) Period of Employment. The period of Executive's employment under this Agreement shall commence  on the Effective Date and shall, unless sooner terminated pursuant to Section 4, terminate on the second anniversary of the Effective Date (such period, as extended from time to time, herein referred to as the "Term"). Subject to Section 2(b), and if the Term has not been terminated pursuant to Section 4, on the second anniversary of the Effective Date and on each anniversary of the Effective Date thereafter (each such anniversary, an "Automatic Extension Date") the Term shall be extended for an additional period of one year, except as

 


 

 

otherwise provided in Section 2(b). 

 

(b) Termination of Automatic Extension by Notice. The Company or Executive may elect to terminate the automatic extension of the Term set forth in Section 2(a) ("Automatic Extension") by giving written notice of such election. Any notice given hereunder must be given not less than 90 days prior to the second anniversary of this Agreement or not less than 90 days prior to the applicable Automatic Extension Date.

 

 

3. Compensation and Benefits.

 

(a) Base Salary. As long as Executive remains an employee of the Company, Executive will be paid a base salary of $379,569.01 which shall continue at this rate, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. Executive's base salary shall be reviewed periodically and the Company may increase such base salary, by an amount, if any, that the Company determines to be appropriate. Any such increase shall not reduce or limit any other obligation of the Company hereunder. Executive's annual base salary payable hereunder, as it may be increased from time to time and without reduction for any amounts deferred as described below, is referred to herein as "Base Salary". Executive's Base Salary, as in effect from time to time, may not be reduced by the Company without Executive's consent, provided that the Base Salary payable under this paragraph shall be reduced to the extent Executive elects to defer or reduce such salary under the terms of any deferred compensation or savings plan or other employee benefit arrangement maintained or established by the Company. The Company shall pay Executive the portion of Executive's Base Salary not deferred in accordance with its customary periodic payroll practices.

 

(b) Incentive Compensation.  Executive shall be eligible to participate in short-term and long-term incentive plans (including any equity incentive plan) sponsored by the Company or its affiliates after the Effective Date on terms and conditions similar to those applicable to other senior executive officers of the Company generally, but at a level generally consistent with Executive's position with the Company and the Company's then current policies and practices.

 

(c) Benefits, Perquisites and Expenses.

 

(1) Benefits. During the Term, Executive shall be eligible to participate in (1) each welfare benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company, including, without limitation, each life, hospitalization, medical, dental, health, accident or disability insurance or similar plan or program of the Company, and (2) each pension, profit sharing, retirement, deferred compensation or savings plan sponsored or maintained by the Company, in each case, whether now existing or established hereafter, to the extent that Executive is eligible to participate in any such plan under the generally applicable provisions thereof. With respect to the pension or retirement benefits payable to Executive, Executive's service credited for purposes of determining Executive's benefits and vesting shall be determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or program. Nothing in this Section 3(c), in and of itself, shall be construed to limit the ability of the Company to amend or terminate any particular plan, program or arrangement.

 

2


 

 

(2) Vacation. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to the number of paid vacation days in each year determined by the Company from time to time for its senior executive officers, but not less than four (4) weeks in any year. Executive shall also be entitled to all paid holidays given by the Company to its senior officers. Except as required by law, vacation days which are not used during any calendar year may not be accrued, nor shall Executive be entitled to compensation for unused vacation days, during the Term or upon termination of employment.

 

(3) Perquisites. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to receive such perquisites (e.g., fringe benefits) as are generally provided to other senior officers of the Company in accordance with the then current policies and practices of the Company.

 

(4) Business Expenses. During the Term, the Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for all reasonable expenses incurred or paid by Executive in the performance of Executive's duties hereunder, upon presentation of expense statements or vouchers and such other information as the Company may reasonably require and if in accordance with the generally applicable written reimbursement or business expense policies and practices of the Company in effect from time to time.  Any such expense reimbursement will be made within thirty (30) days following Executive’s proper submission to the Company of any required documentation, but in no event later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the reimbursable expense was incurred. 

 

4. Employment Termination.

 

The Term of employment under this Agreement may be earlier terminated only as follows:

 

(a) Cause. The Company shall have the right to terminate Executive's employment for Cause. For purposes hereof, a termination by the Company for "Cause" shall mean termination by action of the CEO upon at least 15 days prior written notice to Executive specifying the particulars of the action or inaction alleged to constitute "Cause" because of (1) Executive's conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, any felony (whether or not involving the Company or any other member of the Company Group, as defined below) or any other crime involving moral turpitude which subjects, or if generally known, would subject, any member of the Company Group to public ridicule or embarrassment, (2) fraud or other willful misconduct by Executive in respect of Executive's obligations under this Agreement, or (3) Executive’s continued willful and intentional failure to substantially comply with the reasonable mandates of the CEO commensurate with his/her position after a written demand for substantial compliance is delivered to him/her by the CEO, which demand specifically identifies the mandate(s) with which the CEO believes he/she has not substantially complied, and which failure is not substantially corrected by him/her within 10 days after receipt of such demand.  Executive shall not be considered to have failed to substantially comply if (I) he/she fails to so comply by reason of total or partial incapacity due to physical or mental illness or (II) the requested action is illegal. For the avoidance of doubt, Executive shall not be subject to termination for Cause if Executive acts or refrains from acting:  (1) in reliance upon and in accordance with a resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors of Genesis Healthcare, Inc. (the “Board”); (2) in reliance upon and in accordance with the advice of outside counsel to the Company; or (3) in the good faith reasonable

3


 

 

belief that an action is in the best interests of the Company (or in the case of refraining from taking an action, that such action is not in the best interests of the Company), provided, however, that the Executive may not act or refrain from acting in reliance upon this Clause (3) where the CEO has issued a written demand specifically directing the Executive to take or refrain from taking a specified action.

 

(b) Without Cause. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company may, at any time after at least 90 days prior written notice in accordance with Section 4(f) hereof to Executive, terminate Executive's employment hereunder without Cause.

 

(c) Death or Disability. If Executive dies, Executive's employment shall terminate as of the date of death. If Executive develops a disability, the Company may terminate Executive's employment for Disability. As used in this Agreement, the term "Disability" shall mean incapacity due to physical or mental illness which has caused Executive to be unable to perform the essential functions of Executive’s position with a reasonable accommodation with the Company on a full time basis for (1) a period of six consecutive months, or (2) for shorter periods aggregating more than six months in any twelve month period. During any period of Disability, Executive agrees to submit to reasonable medical examinations upon the reasonable request, and at the expense, of the Company.

 

(d)

Good Reason.  

 

(1) Except as provided in Section 4(d)(2), Executive may terminate Executive's employment at any time during the Term of this Agreement for Good Reason upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice given within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the event purportedly giving rise to Executive’s right to elect; provided,   however, that the Company has not cured or otherwise corrected such event prior to the expiration of such 30-day period. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean any of the following, without Executive's written consent:

 

(A)  the assignment to Executive by the Company of any duties materially adversely inconsistent with Executive's status with the Company or a substantial alteration in the nature or status of Executive's responsibilities from those in effect on the Effective Date, or a reduction in Executive's titles or offices as in effect on the Effective Date, or any removal of Executive from, or any failure to reelect Executive to, any of such positions, except in connection with the termination of Executive's employment for Disability or Cause or as a result of Executive's death or by Executive other than for Good Reason;

 

(B)  a reduction by the Company in Executive's Base Salary as in effect on the date hereof or as the same may be increased from time to time during the term of this Agreement;

 

(C) Executive ceases to participate in long-term incentive plans (including any equity incentive plan) sponsored by the Company or its affiliates after the Effective Date, on terms and conditions similar to those applicable to other senior executive officers of the

4


 

 

Company generally, but at a level generally consistent with Executive's position with the Company and the Company's then current policies and practices;

 

(D)  any relocation of Executive's principal place of employment to a location more than forty-five (45) miles from Executive’s current residence to the proposed relocated principal place of employment; provided, however, that, if Executive currently resides more than forty-five (45) miles from the location set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement, any relocation of Executive's principal place of employment to a location more than ten (10) miles further than the distance from Executive’s current residence to the location set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement. 

 

(e) Executive's Voluntary Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Executive may, at any time after at least 90 days prior written notice in accordance with Section 4(g) hereof to the Company, terminate voluntarily Executive's employment hereunder.  Upon receiving such notice, the Company may relieve Executive of some or all of Executive’s duties at any time during the notice period without constituting “Good Reason” for termination.

 

(f) Expiration of Term. Executive’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries shall cease automatically on the expiration of the Term if the Agreement is not renewed pursuant to Section 2(b) of this Agreement (“Termination by Non-Renewal”).

 

(g) Notice of Termination. Any termination, except for death, pursuant to this Section 4 shall be communicated by a Notice of Termination. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a written notice which shall indicate those specific termination provisions in this Agreement relied upon and which sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated.

 

(h) Date of Termination. "Date of Termination" shall mean (1) if this Agreement is terminated by the Company for Disability, 30 days after Notice of Termination is given to Executive (provided that Executive shall not have returned to the performance of Executive's duties on a full-time basis during such 30-day period), (2) if Executive's employment is terminated due to Executive's death, on the date of death; (3) if Executive's employment is terminated due to Executive's voluntary resignation pursuant to Section 4(e), the date specified in the notice given in accordance with said section; or (4) if Executive's employment is terminated for any other reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination in accordance with this Agreement.

 

5.

Payments upon Termination.

 

(a) Termination Due to Death or Disability.  Upon Executive's death or the termination of Executive's employment by reason of the Disability of Executive, to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, (1) the Company shall pay to Executive's estate or Executive, as applicable, (A) Executive's full Base Salary and other accrued benefits earned up to the last day of the month of Executive's death or termination of employment by reason of Executive's Disability in a lump sum 30 days after the Date of Termination or as otherwise required by applicable law, (B) all deferred compensation of any kind (in accordance with the terms of the plan), including, without

limitation, any amounts earned but not yet paid under any bonus plan in a lump sum 30 days after the Date of Termination, and (C) if any bonus, under any bonus plan of the Company, shall be payable in respect of the year in which Executive's death or termination of employment by reason of Executive's Disability occurs, such bonus(es) prorated up to the last day of the month of Executive's death or termination of employment by reason of Executive's Disability in a lump sum 30 days after the Date of Termination, and (2) all restricted stock, stock option and performance share awards made to Executive and outstanding as of the Date of Termination shall automatically become fully vested as of the Date of Termination.

 

(b) Termination for Cause and Resignation Without Good Reason. If Executive's employment shall be terminated for Cause or Executive resigns during the Term without Good Reason, the Company shall pay Executive, within 30 days after the Date of Termination or as otherwise required by applicable law (i) Executive's full Base Salary through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given and (ii) all deferred compensation of any kind to which Executive is entitled on his Date of Termination in accordance with the terms of any deferred compensation agreement. The Company shall have no further obligations to Executive under this Agreement.

 

(c) Termination by Executive for Good Reason or by the Company for Reasons other than Cause, Disability or Death.

In the event (A) the Company terminates Executive's employment during the Term other than for Cause, death, or Disability (including if the Company terminates Executive’s employment by Non-Renewal); or (B) Executive resigns during the Term for Good Reason, then the Company will pay Executive (a) Executive's Average Base Salary (as defined below) and (b) Executive's Average Assumed Cash Incentive Compensation (as defined below), over the one-year periods following termination of employment.  Payments under this Section 5(c) for Executive’s Base Salary or Average Base Salary will be made in accordance with Section 3(a) of this Agreement as if they were Base Salary.  All stock options, stock awards and similar equity right, if any, granted to Executive and outstanding as of the Date of Termination shall vest and become exercisable immediately prior to the Date of Termination and shall remain exercisable for a period of ninety (90) days following the Date of Termination (or, if sooner, the end of the scheduled term).  "Executive's Average Base Salary" means Executive's Base Salary for the most recent two years (including the year in which the Date of Termination occurs) divided by two. "Executive's Average Assumed Cash Incentive Compensation" means all annual bonuses earned as incentive compensation including under the Company's annual performance bonus, but not including the value of any long-term incentive awards, in consideration of services for the two (2) most recent completed fiscal years prior to the Date of Termination, divided by two (2), or the average annual bonuses earned in such shorter number of fiscal years during which an annual bonus incentive program existed.

 

The payments under this Section 5(c) are subject to, and conditional upon, Executive executing a general release within 60 days after the Date of Termination of all statutory and common law claims relating to employment and termination from employment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (which release must also be signed by the Company and promptly provided to Executive) and such release becoming irrevocable during such 60-day period. Except as provided in the

6


 

 

following paragraph with respect to benefit coverage during such 60-day period, if the 60-day period begins in one taxable year and ends in a second taxable year, no payments or benefits will commence until the second taxable year (and, in such event, the first such payment will include any amount that would, but for the requirement that the payment or benefit commence in the second year, have been paid in the first such taxable year.)

 

In the event (A) the Company terminates Executive's employment during the Term other than for Cause, death, or Disability (including if the Company terminates Executive’s employment by Non-Renewal); or (C) Executive resigns during the Term for Good Reason, the Company shall also maintain in full force and effect, for the continued benefit of Executive and Executive’s dependents for a period equal to two (2) years, all employee insurance benefit plans and programs to which Executive was entitled prior to the Date of Termination (including, without limitation, the health, dental, vision, life and other voluntary insurance programs, but specifically excluding any company paid disability plan or program provided by the Company) if Executive's continued participation is permissible under the general terms and provisions of such plans and programs and Executive continues to pay all applicable premiums. In the event that Executive's participation in any health, medical or life insurance plan or program is barred by the terms thereof or by law, including the 2010 health care reform law, the Company shall increase the payment above, by a lump sum amount equal to the premiums, if any, that would have been paid with respect to Executive by the Company during the two (2) year period described in the preceding sentence under the plans or programs in which Executive’s participation is barred..  Coverage shall be provided during the 60-day period following termination of employment whether or not a release (described above) has been executed, but will not continue beyond that time absent execution of, and failure to revoke, the required release.

 

Executive recognizes and accepts that the Company shall not, in any case, be responsible for any additional amount, severance pay, termination pay, severance obligation, incentive compensation payments, costs, attorney’s fees or other damages whatsoever arising from termination of Executive's employment, above and beyond those specifically provided for herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive shall maintain his/her rights under any Company sponsored qualified or nonqualified retirement plan.

 

6. Executive's Covenants.    Executive hereby acknowledges that this Agreement provides Executive with additional benefits that he/she did not have under his/her prior agreement.

 

(a) Nondisclosure.  At all times during and after the term of this Agreement, Executive shall not disclose or reveal to any Unauthorized Person Confidential Information relating to the members of the Company Group. For purposes of this Section 6, Confidential Information is all information relating to the members of the Company Group that is not known by or readily available to the general public or which becomes known by or readily available to the general public as a result of any improper act or omission of Executive. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive may reveal information, as necessary, (i) pursuant to Executive’s conducting Company business during the Term or (ii) when required to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of the Company, by any administrative body or legislative body (including a

7


 

 

committee thereof) with jurisdiction to order Executive to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information, or as otherwise required by law.  For purposes of this Section 6, Unauthorized Person is any person or entity, within or without the Company, who does not need to know the Confidential Information in order to advance a legitimate business interest of the Company, unless the Company has a relationship or agreement with that person or entity such that the person or entity has an enforceable obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information; provided that nothing in this Section 6(a) shall prevent Executive from disclosing Confidential Information to any person within or without the Company as Executive reasonably believes necessary to facilitate the performance of Executive’s material duties and responsibilities as specified in Section 1.

 

(b) Non-Competition. During the Term hereof and for a period of one (1) year following Executive's termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall not, except with the Company's express prior written consent, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, for the benefit of any entity or person:

 

(1) Solicit any entity or person who is or during such period becomes a customer, supplier, salesman, agent or representative of any member of the Company Group, in any manner which interferes or might interfere with such entity or person's relationship with any member of the Company Group, or in an effort to obtain such entity or person as a customer, supplier, salesman, agent, or representative of any business in competition with any member of the Company Group  which conducts operations within 15 miles of any office or facility owned, leased or operated by any member of the Company Group or in any county, or similar political subdivision, in which any member of the Company Group conducts substantial business.

 

(2) Solicit the employment of any person who is, or was at any time during the three (3) months immediately prior to the termination of Executive’s employment, an employee, consultant, officer or director of any member of the Company Group (except for such employment by any member of the Company Group);

 

(3) Hire any person (whether as an employee, officer, director, agent, consultant or independent contractor) who is, or was at any time during the three (3) months prior to termination of Executive’s employment, an officer or managing director of the any member of the Company Group (except for such employment by any member of the Company Group);

 

(4) Establish, engage, own, manage, operate, join or control, or participate in the establishment, ownership (other than as the owner of less than one percent of the stock of a corporation whose shares are publicly traded), management, operation or control of, or be a director, officer, employee, salesman, agent or representative of, or be a consultant to, any entity or person in any business in competition with any member of the Company Group, if such entity or person has any office or facility at any location within 15 miles of any office or facility owned, leased or operated by any member of the Company Group or conducts substantial business in any county, or similar political subdivision, in which any member of the Company Group conducts substantial business, or act or conduct

8


 

 

himself/herself in any manner which Executive would have reason to believe inimical or contrary to the best interests of the Company.

 

 

(c) If Executive’s employment is terminated in any manner, including non-renewal, other than by the Company with Cause or for Disability, or by the Executive without Good Reason, the time period for the restrictions in Section 6(b)(4) will be the same as the time period during which Executive is to continue to receive his or her Base Salary under this Agreement or, if the post-termination severance payments related to Base Salary is paid in a lump sum, the time period for the restrictions in Section 6(b)(4) will equal to the number of years of Base Salary payable to the Executive as severance (e.g., if  Executive is entitled to payments under Section 5(c), time period for the restrictions in Section 6(b)(4) will equal one year).

 

(d) Enforcement. Executive acknowledges that any breach by Executive of any of the covenants and agreements of this Section 6 ("Covenants") will result in irreparable injury to the Company for which money damages could not adequately compensate the Company, and therefore, in the event of any such breach, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies which the Company may have at law or in equity, to have an injunction issued by any competent court enjoining and restraining Executive and/or all other entities or persons involved therein from continuing such breach. The existence of any claim or cause of action which Executive or any such other entity or person may have against the Company shall not constitute a defense or bar to the enforcement of any of the Covenants. If the Company is obliged to resort to litigation to enforce any of the Covenants which has a fixed term, then such term shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period during which a material breach of such Covenant was occurring, beginning on the date of a final court order (without further right of appeal) holding that such a material breach occurred, or, if later, the last day of the original fixed term of such Covenant.   For purposes of Section 8(d), the term “Company” shall include all affiliates and subsidiaries of the Company.

 

(e) Consideration. Executive expressly acknowledges that the Covenants are a material part of the consideration bargained for by the Company and, without the agreement of Executive to be bound by the Covenants, the Company would not have agreed to enter into this Agreement.

 

 

(f) Scope. If any portion of any Covenant or its application is construed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the other portions and their application shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforceable without regard thereto. If any of the Covenants is determined to be unenforceable because of its scope, duration, geographical area or similar factor, then the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce or limit such scope, duration, area or other factor, and such Covenant shall then be enforceable in its reduced or limited form.

 

7. No Obligation to Mitigate Damages; No Effect on Other Contractual Rights.

 

Executive shall not be required to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of payment provided for under this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by Executive

9


 

 

as the result of employment by another employer after the Date of Termination, or otherwise. The amounts payable to Executive under Section 5 hereof shall not be treated as damages but as severance compensation to which Executive is entitled by reason of termination of Executive's employment in the circumstances contemplated by this Agreement.

8. Duties Upon Termination.

 

(a) Return of Materials. Executive agrees that he/she will, upon termination of his/her employment with the Company for any reason whatsoever, deliver to the Company or where delivery of the documents is not feasible, such as electronic documents and records, destroy any and all records, forms, contracts, memoranda, work papers, lists of names or other customer data and any other articles or papers which have come into Executive’s possession by reason of his/her employment with the Company or which he/she holds for the Company, regardless of whether or not any of said items were prepared by Executive, and he/she shall not retain memoranda or copies of any of said items. Executive shall assign to the Company all rights to trade secrets and the products relating to the Company's business developed by Executive alone or in conjunction with others at any time alike employed by the Company.

(b) Resignation from All Positions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, upon the termination of Executive's employment for any reason, unless otherwise requested by the CEO, Executive shall immediately resign from all positions that he/she holds or has ever held with any member of the Company Group (and with any other entities with respect to which the Company has requested Executive to perform services). Executive hereby agrees to execute any and all documentation to effectuate such resignations upon request by the Company, but he/she shall be treated for all purposes as having so resigned upon termination of his/her employment, regardless of when or whether he/she executes any such documentation.

 

 

(c) Cooperation. For a period of two (2) years following the termination of Executive’s employment, Executive will respond to reasonable, limited inquiries from any member of the Company Group with respect to matters within Executive's knowledge. Executive need only respond to such inquiries by telephone or E-mail, and the amount of detail in such response and the promptness with which it is made will depend on, among other things, the other demands on Executive's time.

This Agreement is intended to comply with Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulations thereunder (“409A”) and shall be administered and interpreted accordingly, including, without limitation, interpretation of “termination of employment” in a manner consistent with the definition of separation from service under 409A.  Any installment payments hereunder shall be treated as separate payments for purposes of 409A’s rules regarding treatment of installment payments as single versus separate payments.  Notwithstanding any other Section of this Agreement, any reimbursements hereunder (other than tax gross-up payments) shall be made by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related expense is incurred (or by such earlier date prescribed elsewhere in this Agreement).  Any expense reimbursements hereunder during a calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during any other calendar year.  The right to any expense reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.  Notwithstanding any other Section of this Agreement, reimbursement of expenses incurred due to a tax audit or litigation and any tax-gross up payment shall be made by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related taxes are remitted to the applicable taxing authority, or where no taxes are remitted, the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the audit is completed or there is a final and nonappealable settlement or other resolution of the litigation (or by such earlier date prescribed elsewhere in this Agreement.)  In the event Executive is a specified employee of a public company on the Date of Termination then, to the extent required by 409A , payments hereunder shall be made or commence, as applicable, on the first day of the month following the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, with amounts that would have been paid during such six-month delay included in the first payment. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under 409A, if any payments are due under Section 5(c) with respect to a termination of employment which occurred during 2015, such payments shall be made under payment timing rules provided for substantially similar payments under the Current Employment Agreement.

 

(o) Indemnification. (i) The Company shall maintain in effect, during the Term and for a period of at least six (6) years following the Term, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance covering Executive and his Legal Representatives (as defined below), with benefits and levels of coverage at least as favorable as that provided under the Company’s policies as of immediately following the Effective Date.  Such insurance shall be obtained from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s insurance carrier, with respect to such policies, as of immediately following the Effective Date. The Company shall indemnify Executive and Executive’s beneficiaries and successors (the “Legal Representatives”) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all costs, charges, damages, amounts paid in settlement or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) whatsoever incurred or sustained by Executive or Executive’s Legal Representatives in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding to which Executive or Executive’s Legal Representatives may be made a party as a result of the entering into of this Agreement or the performance of services hereunder. This indemnification provision is in addition to, and is not in substitution for, any other indemnification rights that Executive

13


 

 

might have under any insurance policy, the Company’s governance documents, or any other plan, policy or agreement which provides indemnification rights for Executive; provided, however, that any indemnity payments made pursuant to this Section (o) shall not be duplicative of payments made pursuant to any insurance policy, the Company’s governance documents, or any other plan, policy or agreement which provides indemnification rights for Executive.

 

(ii) Notice of Claim. Executive shall give to the Company notice of any claim made against him / her for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Section (o). In addition, Executive shall give the Company such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be within Executive’s power, at such times and places as are convenient for Executive.

 

(iii) Defense of Claim. With respect to any claim under this Section (o) as to which Executive notifies the Company of the commencement thereof:

 

(A) The Company will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense; and

 

(B) To the extent that it may wish, the Company will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Executive, which in the Company’s sole discretion may be regular counsel to the Company and may be counsel to other officers and directors of any member of the Company Group.

 

(C) The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Executive under this Section (o) for any amounts paid in settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent. The Company shall not settle any action or claim in any manner without Executive’s written consent, which (i) would impose any penalty or limitation on Executive, or (ii) does not deny all liability and wrongdoing by Executive. Neither the Company nor Executive will unreasonably withhold or delay their consent to any proposed settlement.

 

(iv) Timing of Payment. The Company shall pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Executive or Executive’s Legal Representatives in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of any action, suit or proceeding within thirty days of presentation to the Company of an itemized statement of such costs and expenses. The Company shall pay any damages or settlement amounts to the claiming party when such amounts are due and owing under any court order or settlement document. If the Company does not pay any amounts on a timely basis, Executive or his Legal Representatives may bring a claim for payment against the Company and the Company shall pay Executive’s or his Legal Representative’s costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with such claim.

 

(v) Survival. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section (o) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

4.

The Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Released Parties, hereby releases Employee from all claims, causes of actions, demands or liabilities which arose against the Employee on or before the time it signs this Agreement.

Any modification of this Release must be made in writing and be signed by Employee and the Company.

8.

If any provision of this Release or compliance by Employee or the Company with any provision of the Release constitutes a violation of any law, or is   or becomes unenforceable or void, then such provision, to the extent only that it is in violation of law, unenforceable or void, will be deemed modified to the extent necessary so that it is no longer in violation of law, unenforceable or void, and such provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

2.2 New Lender Confirmations .  Each New Lender hereby (i) confirms that (w) it is not a Restricted Person, (x) it has received a copy of this Amendment, the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this this Amendment and to make the Loans and/or provide the Commitments, as applicable, (y) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make loans similar to those contemplated to be made hereunder and (z) it is experienced in making loans of such type; (ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

SECTION III. EXCHANGE OF EXISTING REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENTS; AGREEMENTS TO MAKE CLOSING DATE TERM LOAN AND TO PROVIDE INCREASED REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENTS AND DELAYED DRAW TERM LOAN COMMITMENTS; USE OF PROCEEDS, ETC .

3.1 Loans and Commitments .  

(a) Revolving Credit Loans .  On the terms and subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section IV hereof, (i) MCF IV agrees (y) that all of its Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (the “ Exchanged Revolving Credit Commitments ”) will be exchanged for New Revolving Credit Commitments in a like principal amount, as of the Restatement Date (but after giving effect to any partial prepayment described in Section 3.2 below) and (ii) to provide New Revolving Credit Commitments on the Restatement Date in the amount necessary to arrive at the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment set forth on Annex II opposite MCF IV’s name and (ii) each New Lender that is a Revolving Lender agrees to provide New Revolving Credit Commitments on the Restatement Date in the amount set forth on Annex II opposite such Lender’s name.  The commitments of the Revolving Lenders and the refinancing undertakings of MCF IV are several and no such Revolving Lender will be responsible for any other Revolving Lender’s failure to make or acquire by refinancing New Revolving Credit Commitments or New Revolving Credit Loans. 

(b) Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments .  On the terms and subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section IV hereof, each DDTL Lender agrees to provide a Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment on the Restatement Date in the amount set forth on Annex II opposite such Lender’s name.  The commitments

 

5

 

 


 

of the DDTL Lenders are several and no such DDTL Lender will be responsible for any other DDTL Lender’s failure to make its DDTL Credit Commitment or Delayed Draw Term Loans. 

(c) Closing Date Term Loan .  On the terms and subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section IV hereof, each Closing Date Term Lender agrees to make its Pro Rata Share of the Closing Date Term Loan on the Restatement Date in the amount set forth on Annex II opposite such Lender’s name.  The commitments of the Closing Date Term Lenders are several and no such Closing Date Term Lender will be responsible for any other Closing Date Term Lender’s failure to make its Pro Rata Share of the Closing Date Term Loan. 

3.2 Use of Proceeds of Closing Date Term Loan; Voluntary Prepayment .  On the Restatement Date, Borrowers shall apply a portion of the aggregate proceeds of the Closing Date Term Loan to prepay in full the principal amount of all Existing Revolving Loans held by the Assigning Lenders immediately prior to the effectiveness of that certain Master Assignment Agreement executed by each of the Assigning Lenders, as assignors, and MCF, as assignee (the “ Master Assignment Agreement ”). Any remaining proceeds of the Closing Date Term Loan shall be used to prepay, in part, the principal amount of Existing Revolving Loans held by MCF IV immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment.   The repayment of Existing Revolving Loans with the proceeds of the Closing Date Term Loan contemplated hereby collectively constitute an optional partial prepayment of the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in the Credit Agreement) by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.7(ii) of the Credit Agreement and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.7(ii) of the Credit Agreement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no premium or penalty shall be due with respect to such payment or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment.

3.3 Letters of Credit .  Notwithstanding anything in the Credit Agreement to the contrary, each Letter of Credit (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that is outstanding under the Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment shall be cash-collateralized on the Restatement Date and no longer outstanding under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of the Restatement Date, and the L/C Obligations and participations in such Letters of Credit shall no longer be included as Obligations as of the Restatement Date.

3.4 Termination of Existing Revolving Credit Commitments; Settlement Among Revolving Lenders .  MCF consents to this Amendment as a Lender, but does not consent to the continuation of its Existing Revolving Credit Commitments into New Revolving Credit Commitments.  Accordingly, upon payment in full of its Existing Revolving Loans as contemplated by Section 3.2 above, (a) the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of MCF shall be terminated and (b) all remaining Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of MCF IV shall be automatically and irrevocably terminated (it being understood that such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments shall be automatically replaced with New Revolving Credit Commitments).  From and after the Restatement Date, the Revolving Lenders hereby authorize Administrative Agent to adjust the funding and settlement mechanics set forth in the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement for so long as, and only to the extent necessary, to ensure that each Revolving Lender holds its Pro Rata Share of outstanding Revolving Loans as quickly as possible after the Restatement Date.

(b) Disbursements by Administrative Agent .  Administrative Agent shall have the right, on behalf of Lenders to disburse funds to Borrowers for all Loans requested or deemed requested by Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  Administrative Agent shall be conclusively entitled to assume, for purposes of the preceding sentence, that each Lender, other than any Defaulting Lenders, will fund its Pro Rata Share of all Loans requested by Borrowers.  Each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent on demand, in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.12 , for all funds disbursed on its behalf by Administrative Agent  pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (b) , or if Administrative Agent so requests, each Lender will remit to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loan before Administrative Agent disburses the same to a Borrower.  If Administrative Agent elects to require that each Lender make funds available to Administrative Agent, prior to a disbursement by Administrative Agent to a Borrower, Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, facsimile or e-mail of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan requested by such Borrower no later than noon (Eastern time) on the date of funding of such Loan, and each such Lender shall pay Administrative Agent on such date such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such requested Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to the Agent Collection Account, or such other account as may be identified by Administrative Agent to Lenders from time to time.  If any Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro Rata Share of any funds advanced by Agent pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (b) within one (1) Business Day after Administrative Agent’s demand, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower Representative, and Borrowers shall immediately repay such amount to Administrative Agent.  Any repayment required by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) shall be accompanied by accrued interest thereon from and including the date such amount is made available to a Borrower to but excluding the date of payment at the rate of interest then applicable to the tranche of Loan funded.  Nothing in this Section 2.2(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Administrative Agent or any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(i) On the Closing Date, Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders, may elect to advance to Borrowers the full amount of the initial Loans to be made on the Closing Date prior to receiving funds from Lenders, in reliance upon each Lender’s commitment to make its Pro Rata Share of such Loans to Borrowers in a timely manner on such date.  If Administrative Agent elects to advance the initial Loans to Borrowers in such manner, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive all interest that accrues on the Closing Date on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Loans unless Agent receives such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Loans before 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Closing Date.

(ii) It is understood that for purposes of advances to Borrowers made pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) , Administrative Agent will be using the funds of Administrative Agent, and pending settlement, (A) all funds transferred from the Agent Collection Account to the outstanding Loans shall be applied first to advances made by Agent to Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) , and (B) all interest accruing on such advances shall be payable to Administrative Agent.

(iii) The provisions of this Section 2.2(b) shall be deemed to be binding upon Administrative Agent and Lenders notwithstanding the occurrence of any Default or Event

49


 

 

of Default, or any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding pertaining to any Borrower or any other Loan Party.

(c) Defaulting Lenders .  Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Lender prior to the date such Lender is required to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Loan or any participation in any Swing Loan or Letter of Credit that such Lender will not make such payment (or any portion thereof) available to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such payment available to Administrative Agent on the date such payment is required to be made in accordance with this Article 2 or Section 10.12 and Administrative Agent shall, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount.  Borrowers agree to repay to Administrative Agent on demand such amount (until repaid by such Lender) with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrowers until the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable to the Obligation that would have been created when Administrative Agent made available such amount to Borrowers had such Lender made a corresponding payment available; provided ,   however , that such payment shall not relieve such Lender of any obligation it may have to Borrowers, Swingline Lender or any L/C Issuer.  In addition, any Defaulting Lender agrees to pay such amount to Administrative Agent on demand together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrowers until the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for the first Business Day and thereafter (i) in the case of a payment in respect of a Loan, at the interest rate applicable at the time to such Loan and (ii) otherwise, at the interest rate applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility.  Such repayment shall then constitute the funding of the corresponding Loan (including any Loan deemed to have been made hereunder with such payment) or participation.  If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period.  The existence of any Defaulting Lender shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations under any Loan Document, but no other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Defaulting Lender to make any payment required under any Loan Document.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers against any Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.3 Swing Loans .

(a) Availability .  On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, make loans in Dollars (each a “ Swing Loan ”) available to Borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $30,000,000; provided ,   however , that the Swingline Lender may not make any Swing Loan (x) to the extent that after giving effect to such Swing Loan, the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Borrowing Availability and (y) in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives notice from Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 are not satisfied and ending when such conditions are satisfied or duly waived.  In connection with the making of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender may but shall not be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied or waived.  Each Swing Loan must be repaid in full on the earliest of (i) the funding date of any Borrowing of Revolving Loans and (ii) the Termination Date.  Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause (a) , amounts of Swing Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (a) .

50


 

 

(b) Borrowing Procedures .  In order to request a Swing Loan, LLC Parent on behalf of Borrowers shall give to Administrative Agent a notice to be received not later than 11:00 a.m. on the day of the proposed Borrowing, which may be made in a writing substantially in the form of Exhibit D duly completed (a “ Swingline Request ”) or by telephone if confirmed promptly but, in any event, prior to such Borrowing, with such a Swingline Request.  In addition, if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the Swingline Lender may, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in Section 2.2 , make a Swing Loan available to Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed such proposed Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Borrowing shall be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan.  Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Swingline Lender of the details of the requested Swing Loan.  Upon receipt of such notice and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender may make a Swing Loan available to Borrower by making the proceeds thereof available to Administrative Agent and, in turn, Administrative Agent shall make such proceeds available to Borrower on the date set forth in the relevant Swingline Request.

(c) Refinancing Swing Loans .  The Swingline Lender may at any time, and no less frequently than weekly, forward a demand to Administrative Agent (which Administrative Agent shall, upon receipt, forward to each Revolving Lender) that each Revolving Lender pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all or a portion of the outstanding Swing Loans.  Each Revolving Lender shall pay such Pro Rata Share to Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender.  Upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such payment (other than during the continuation of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(g) or (h) ), such Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to Borrowers, which, upon receipt of such payment by the Swingline Lender from Administrative Agent, Borrowers shall be deemed to have used in whole to refinance such Swing Loan.  In addition, regardless of whether any such demand is made, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(g) or (h) , each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in each Swing Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Loan.  If any payment made by any Revolving Lender as a result of any such demand is not deemed a Revolving Loan, such payment shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of such participation.  Such participation shall not be otherwise required to be funded.  Upon receipt by the Swingline Lender of any payment from any Revolving Lender pursuant to this clause (c) with respect to any portion of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender shall promptly pay over to such Revolving Lender all payments of principal (to the extent received after such payment by such Lender) and interest (to the extent accrued with respect to periods after such payment) received by the Swingline Lender with respect to such portion.

(d) Obligation to Fund Absolute .  Each Revolving Lender’s obligations pursuant to  clause (c) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including (A) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person may have against the Swingline Lender, any other Secured Party or any other Person, (B) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 3.2 to be satisfied or the failure of Borrower to deliver any notice set forth in Section 2.2(a) (each of which requirements the Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) and (C) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party.

(i) (A) the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Borrowing Availability, or (B) the L/C Obligations for all Letters of Credit would exceed the L/C Sublimit;

(ii) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (A) is not a Business Day, (B) is more than one (1) year after the date of issuance thereof or (C) is later than seven (7) days prior to the Scheduled Termination Date; provided ,   however , that any Letter of Credit with a term not exceeding one (1) year may provide for its renewal for additional periods not exceeding one (1) year as long as (x) each Borrower and such L/C Issuer have the option to prevent such renewal before the expiration of such term or any such period and (y) neither such L/C Issuer nor Borrowers shall permit any such renewal to extend such expiration date beyond the date set forth in clause (C) above; or

(iii) (A) any fee due in connection with, and on or prior to, such Issuance has not been paid, (B) such Letter of Credit is requested to be Issued in a form that is not acceptable to such L/C Issuer or (C) such L/C Issuer shall not have received, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to it and duly executed by LLC Parent on behalf of the requesting Borrowers (and, if such Letter of Credit is issued for the account of any other Loan Party, such Loan Party), the documents that such L/C Issuer generally uses in the ordinary course of its business for the Issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit (collectively, the “ L/C Reimbursement Agreement ”).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Borrowers agree and acknowledge that no part of the Revolving Credit Commitments will be available for the issuance of a Letter of Credit until such times as Administrative Agent notifies Borrowers that a Lender party to this Agreement is an L/C Issuer.

For each such Issuance, the applicable L/C Issuer may, but shall not be required to, (A) determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied or waived in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit; provided ,   however , that no Letter of Credit shall be Issued during the period starting on the first Business Day after the receipt by such L/C Issuer of notice from Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders that any condition precedent contained in Section 3.2 is not satisfied and ending on the date all such conditions are satisfied or duly waived, and/or (B) elect to issue Letters of Credit in its own name to the extent permitted by applicable law (which Letters of Credit may not be accepted by certain beneficiaries such as insurance companies).

(b) Notice of Issuance .  LLC Parent on behalf of Borrowers shall give the relevant L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent a notice of any requested Issuance of any Letter of Credit, which shall be effective only if received by such L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the third Business Day prior to the date of such requested Issuance.  Such notice may be made in a writing substantially in the form of Exhibit E duly completed or in a writing in any other form acceptable to such L/C Issuer (an “ L/C Request ”) or by telephone if confirmed promptly, but in any event within one Business Day and prior to such Issuance, with such an L/C Request.

(d) Acquisition of Participations .  Upon any Issuance of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement resulting in any increase in the L/C Obligations, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit and the related L/C Obligations in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such L/C Obligations.

(e) Reimbursement Obligations of Borrower .  Borrowers agree to pay to the L/C Issuer of any Letter of Credit each L/C Reimbursement Obligation owing with respect to such Letter of Credit no later than the first Business Day after LLC Parent receives notice from such L/C Issuer that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit or that such L/C Reimbursement

53


 

 

Obligation is otherwise due (the “ L/C Reimbursement Date ”) with interest thereon computed as set forth in clause (i) below.  In the event that any L/C Issuer incurs any L/C Reimbursement Obligation not repaid by Borrowers as provided in this clause (e) (or any such payment by Borrowers is rescinded or set aside for any reason), such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of such failure (and, upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Agent shall forward a copy to each Revolving Lender) and, irrespective of whether such notice is given, such L/C Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand by Borrowers with interest thereon computed (i) from the date on which such L/C Reimbursement Obligation arose to the L/C Reimbursement Date, at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving Loans and (ii) thereafter until payment in full, at the interest rate applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans.

(f) Reimbursement Obligations of the Revolving Lenders .  Upon receipt of the notice described in clause (e) above from Administrative Agent, each Revolving Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share of such L/C Reimbursement Obligation.  By making such payment (other than during the continuation of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(g) or (h) ), such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to Borrower, which, upon receipt thereof by such L/C Issuer, Borrowers shall be deemed to have used in whole to repay such L/C Reimbursement Obligation.  Any such payment that is not deemed a Revolving Loan shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of its participation in the applicable Letter of Credit and the related L/C Obligations.  Such participation shall not otherwise be required to be funded.  Upon receipt by an L/C Issuer of any payment from any Lender pursuant to this clause (f) with respect to any portion of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation, such L/C Issuer shall promptly pay over to such Lender all payments received after such payment by such L/C Issuer with respect to such portion.

Section 2.5 Reduction and Termination of the Commitments .  All outstanding Commitments shall terminate (i) on the Scheduled Termination Date or (ii) in connection with an optional repayment pursuant to Section 2.7 in the amount of such prepayment.  The aggregate Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of all Delayed Draw Term Lenders shall reduce on each Delayed Draw Term Loan Reduction Date pursuant to Section 2.1(d)

(b) Computations of Interests and Fees .  All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in the case of Base Rate Loans whose interest rate is calculated based on the rate set forth in clause (a) of the definition of “Base Rate,” 365/366 days), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable.  Each determination of an interest rate or the amount of a fee hereunder shall be made by Administrative

(d) Advancing Payments .  Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from LLC Parent on behalf of each Borrower to the Lenders prior to the date on which any payment is due hereunder that Borrowers will not make such payment in full, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrowers have made such payment in full to Administrative Agent on such date and Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender.  If and to the extent that Borrowers shall not have made such payment in full to Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to Administrative Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon (at the Federal Funds Rate for the first Business Day and thereafter, at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility) for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to Administrative Agent.

(d) Prima Facie Evidence .  The entries made in the Register and in the accounts maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided ,   however , that no error in such account and no failure of any Lender or Administrative Agent to maintain any such account shall affect the obligations of any Loan Party to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.  In addition, the Loan Parties, Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement.  Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or any L/C Issuer shall be available for access by Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  No Lender or L/C Issuer shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent.

(a) Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair .  In the event that (A) Administrative Agent determines that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the Base LIBOR Rate in accordance with the definition thereof or (B) Required Lenders, as the case may be, notify Administrative Agent that the LIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be, for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period by reason of any changes arising after the Closing Date, Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify LLC Parent and such Lenders, whereupon the obligation of each such Lender to make or to continue LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended as provided in clause (c) below until Administrative Agent shall notify LLC Parent that the Required Lenders, as the case may be, have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no

61


 

 

longer exist.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the circumstances set forth above in subclause (A) of this clause (a) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, then Administrative Agent, in consultation with LLC Parent, shall select a comparable successor rate determined in good faith.

(b) Illegality .  If any Lender determines that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any Requirement of Law after the date of this Agreement shall make it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make LIBOR Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to LLC Parent through Administrative Agent, the obligation of such Lender to make or to continue LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended as provided in clause (c) below until such Lender shall, through Administrative Agent, notify LLC Parent that it has determined that it may lawfully make LIBOR Rate Loans.

(c) Effect of Suspension .  If the obligation of any Lender to make or to continue LIBOR Rate Loans is suspended, (A) such Lender shall make a Base Rate Loan at any time such Lender would otherwise be obligated to make a LIBOR Rate Loan and (B) each LIBOR Rate Loan of such Lender shall automatically and immediately be converted into a Base Rate Loan

(c) Increased Capital Requirements .  If at any time any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that, after the Closing Date, the adoption of, or any change in or in the interpretation, application or administration of, or compliance with, any Requirement of Law (other than any imposition or increase of Reserve Requirements) from any Governmental Authority regarding capital adequacy, reserves, liquidity requirements, special deposits, compulsory loans, insurance charges against property of, deposits with or for the account of, Obligations owing to, or other credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or L/C Issuer or any similar requirement (in each case other than any imposition or increase of Reserve Requirements) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer (or any corporation controlling such Lender or L/C Issuer) as a consequence of its obligations under or with respect to any Loan Document or Letter of Credit to a level below that which, taking into account the capital adequacy policies of such Lender, L/C Issuer or corporation, such Lender, L/C Issuer or corporation could have achieved but for such adoption or change, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy of such demand to Administrative Agent), Borrowers shall pay

(d) Compensation Certificate .  Each demand for compensation under this Section 2.16 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Lender or L/C Issuer claiming such compensation, setting forth the amounts to be paid hereunder, which certificate shall be prima facie evidence of such, absent manifest error.  In determining such amount, such Lender or L/C Issuer may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date such Lender or L/C Issuer notifies the Borrowers of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefore; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have retroactive effect, then such six month period shall be extended to include such period of retroactive effect.

(c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Loan Parties, as promptly as possible thereafter the Loan Parties shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent or the relevant Secured Party, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Loan Parties showing payment thereof if such receipt is obtainable, or, if not, other reasonable evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Each Secured Party that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “ Non-U.S. Lender Party ”) shall deliver to LLC Parent and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a participant, to LLC Parent and to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) (i) two accurate and complete original, signed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8EXP, W-8BEN (claiming benefits under an applicable treaty) or W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying forms), whichever is applicable, (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender Party claiming exemption from United States federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit L and two accurate and complete original, signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions or successors to such forms, in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender Party.  Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender Party on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any participant, on or before the date such participant purchases the related participation).  In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender Party shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender Party.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender Party shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender Party is not legally able to deliver.

(e) Each Secured Party that is a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “ U.S. Lender Party ”) shall deliver to LLC Parent and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete original, signed copies of IRS Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form.  Such forms shall be delivered by each U.S. Lender Party on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement.  In addition, each U.S. Lender Party shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such U.S. Lender Party.

(f) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and any Secured Party, within 30 days after the written demand therefor, the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or Secured Party whether or not such Taxes are correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such amount or liability delivered to LLC Parent by a Secured Party (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or by the Administrative Agent on its behalf of on behalf of a Secured Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(g) If any Secured Party determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with

64


 

 

respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly pay over such refund to the Borrowers (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Loan Party under this Section with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party, agree to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party in the event the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Administrative Agent or Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the Secured Party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Secured Party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to make available its Tax Returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person.

(h) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Non-Excluded Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), and (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h).  The agreements in this paragraph (h) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

(i) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to LLC Parent and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by LLC Parent or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by LLC Parent or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this paragraph, FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Section 2.18 Substitution of Lenders .

(a) Substitution Right .  In the event that any Lender that is not an Affiliate of Administrative Agent (an “ Affected Lender ”), (i) makes a claim under clause (b) (Increased Costs) or (c)  (Increased Capital Requirements) of Section 2.16 , (ii) notifies LLC Parent pursuant to Section 2.15(b) (Illegality) that it becomes illegal for such Lender to continue to fund or make any LIBOR Rate Loan, (iii) makes a claim for payment pursuant to Section 2.17 (Taxes), (iv) becomes a Defaulting Lender or (v) does not consent to any request made by LLC Parent on behalf of Borrowers in good faith for an amendment, waiver or consent to any Loan Document for which the consent of Required Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable, is obtained but that requires the consent of other Lenders in the particular tranche, Borrowers may substitute for such Affected Lender in the applicable Credit Facility any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender or any other Person (other than a Restricted Person) reasonably acceptable (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to Administrative Agent to the extent that an assignment to such replacement financial institution of the rights and obligations being acquired by it would otherwise require the consent of the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.2(b) (in each case, a “ Substitute Lender ”).

(b) Procedure .  To substitute such Affected Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility, LLC Parent on behalf of Borrowers shall deliver a notice to Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender.  The effectiveness of such substitution shall be subject to the delivery to Administrative Agent by LLC Parent on behalf of Borrowers (or, as may be applicable in the case of a substitution, by the Substitute Lender) of (i) payment for the account of such Affected Lender, of, to the extent accrued through, and outstanding on, the effective date for such substitution, all Obligations owing to such Affected Lender with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility (including those that will be owed because of such payment and all Obligations that would be owed to such Lender if it was solely a Lender in the Revolving Credit Facility, but shall not include, and Borrowers shall not be assessed any Termination Fee), and (ii) in the case of a substitution, (A) payment of the assignment fee set forth in Section 11.2(c) and (B) an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent whereby the Substitute Lender shall, among other things, agree to be bound by the terms of the Loan Documents and assume the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Affected Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility; provided that (u) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (v) [reserved], (w) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to the extent that an assignment to such replacement financial institution of the rights and obligations being acquired by it would otherwise require the consent of the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.2(b) , (x) the Borrowers shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.17 in respect of any period prior to the date on which such replacement shall be consummated, (y) if applicable, the replacement financial institution shall consent to such amendment or waiver and (z) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender.

(c) Effectiveness .  Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clause (b) above, Administrative Agent shall record such substitution or payment in the Register, whereupon (i) in the case of any payment in full in the Revolving Credit Facility, such Affected Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments in the Revolving Credit Facility shall be terminated and (ii) in the case of any substitution in the Revolving Credit Facility, (A) the Affected Lender shall sell and be relieved of, and the Substitute Lender shall purchase and assume, all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, except that the Affected Lender shall retain such rights expressly providing that they survive the repayment of the

66


 

 

Obligations and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, (B) the Substitute Lender shall become a “Lender” hereunder having a Revolving Credit Commitment in the Revolving Credit Facility in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment in the Revolving Credit Facility and (C) the Affected Lender shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment to evidence such substitution and deliver any Note in its possession with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility; provided ,   however , that the failure of any Affected Lender to execute any such Assignment or deliver any such Note shall not render such sale and purchase (or the corresponding assignment) invalid.

Section 2.19 Contribution .

(a) Right of Contribution .  To satisfy obligations hereunder or otherwise for the benefit of one or more of the other Borrowers, if any Borrower (the “ Overpaying Borrower ”) (i) makes any payment in excess of its Allocable Share, or (ii) incurs a loss of its Collateral due to the foreclosure (or other realization by Lender) of, or the delivery of deeds in lieu of foreclosure relating to its Collateral and the value of such Collateral exceeded its Allocable Share, then such Overpaying Borrower shall be entitled, after indefeasible payment in full and the satisfaction of all obligations to Lender under the Loan Documents, to contribution from each of the benefited Borrowers, for the amounts so paid, advanced or benefited, up to such benefited Borrower’s then current Allocable Share, or both.  Any such contribution payments shall be made within 10 days after demand therefor.

(b) Right of Subrogation After Payment in Full .  If any Borrower (a “ Defaulting Borrower ”) shall have failed to make a contribution payment as hereinabove provided, after indefeasible payment in full and the satisfaction of all obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility, as the case may be, the Overpaying Borrower shall be subrogated to the rights of Lenders against such Defaulting Borrower, including the right to receive a portion of such Defaulting Borrower’s Collateral in an amount equal to the contribution payment required hereunder that such Defaulting Borrower failed to make; provided ,   however , if Lenders return any payments in connection with a bankruptcy of a Borrower, all subrogated Borrowers shall jointly and severally repay Lenders all such amounts repaid, together with interest thereon at the then-current rate as set forth herein.  At the request of any Borrower or Borrowers, upon indefeasible payment in full and the satisfaction of all obligations under the Revolving Credit Facilities, Lenders shall assign the Collateral, without recourse, to such Borrower or Borrowers; provided , that, if Lenders shall have received conflicting requests from more than one Borrower to receive such Collateral and such requesting Borrowers cannot agree as to the disposition of such Collateral, Lenders shall have no obligation to deliver such Collateral to such requesting Borrowers unless and until such requesting Borrowers shall have agreed as to the disposition of such Collateral and so authorized Lenders jointly in writing.  Upon Lenders’ receipt of such authorization, Lenders shall assign the Collateral in question, without recourse, to Borrowers entitled to receive such Collateral within 90 days thereafter.  Prior to delivering such Collateral, Lenders shall be entitled to receive from the requesting Borrower or Borrowers such other assurances, indemnities and agreements as may be reasonably requested by Lenders.

(c) Deemed Guaranty, Waivers .  To the extent any of the obligations of any individual Borrower under this Agreement or the Loan Documents are deemed to constitute a guaranty, such individual Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert any claim, defense, setoff or counterclaim based on diligence, promptness, presentment, requirements for any demand or notice hereunder or under any Loan Document including:  (i) any demand for payment or performance and protest and notice of protest, (ii) any notice of acceptance, (iii) any presentment, demand, protest or further notice or other requirements of any kind with respect to

67


 

 

any guaranteed obligation (including any accrued but unpaid interest thereon) becoming immediately due and payable, (iv) any other notice in respect of any guaranteed obligation or any part thereof, and (v) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any other Borrower.  While the Obligations are outstanding, such individual Borrower further unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to (x) enforce or otherwise exercise any right of subrogation or any right of reimbursement or contribution or similar right against any other Borrower by reason of any Loan Document or any payment made thereunder or (y) assert any claim, defense, setoff or counterclaim it may have against any other Person or set off any of its obligations to such other Person against obligations of such other Person to any other Borrower.  No obligation of such individual Borrower shall be discharged other than by complete performance or express written waiver.

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses to which any individual Borrower may be entitled with respect to any of the obligations of such individual Borrower in the nature of a guaranty under the Revolving Credit Facilities, this Agreement or any other Loan Document arising from the fact that the obligations under the Revolving Credit Facilities are secured, in part, by real property.  Each individual Borrower hereby waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lenders, even though any such election of remedies, such as a non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed such individual Borrower’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against any other Person.

Such individual Borrower hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense, whether arising in connection with or in respect of any of the following or otherwise, and hereby agrees that its obligations under this Agreement, even if deemed to be in the nature of a guaranty, are primary, irrevocable, absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged as a result of or otherwise affected by any of the following (which may not be pleaded and evidence of which may not be introduced in any proceeding with respect to this Agreement, in each case except as otherwise agreed in writing by Administrative Agent):

(i) the invalidity or unenforceability of any obligation of Borrowers under any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (including any amendment, consent or waiver thereto), or any security for, or other guaranty of, any obligation hereunder or any part thereof, or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations or any part thereof;

(ii) (A) any delay in enforcing or the absence of any action to enforce Borrowers’ Obligations, or (B) any attempt or the absence of any attempt to collect any obligation hereunder or any part thereof from Borrowers or other action to enforce the same;

(iii) any sale, exchange, release, surrender or other disposition of, or realization upon, any collateral securing the Obligations, or any amendment, waiver, settlement or compromise of any guaranties of the Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person with respect to the Loan Documents;

(iv) the failure by any Person to take any steps to perfect and maintain any lien on, or to preserve any rights with respect to, any Collateral;

(v) any workout, insolvency, bankruptcy proceeding, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, dissolution or similar event or proceeding by or against Borrowers or any of their respective properties or any procedure, agreement, order, stipulation, election, action or omission thereunder, including any discharge or

68


 

 

disallowance of, or bar or stay against collecting, any guaranteed obligation (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding;

(vi) any foreclosure, whether or not through judicial sale, and any other Transfer of any Collateral or any election following the occurrence of an Event of Default by any Lender to proceed separately against any Collateral in accordance with such Lender’s rights under any applicable law;

(vii) any other defense, setoff, counterclaim or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Borrower, Subsidiary of any Borrower, in each case other than the payment in full of the Obligations;

(viii) the absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any other Borrower;

(ix) receipt by any Borrower of any notice or directive given at any time that is inconsistent with this Section 2.19 ; or

(x) any renewal, amendment, modification or extension of this agreement or the other Loan Documents or any assignment or subletting or other changes or actions affecting the interest in the Collateral.

This means, among other things:  (i) Lenders may collect from such individual Borrower with respect to such obligation without first foreclosing on any Collateral pledged by any other Borrower and  (ii) if Lenders foreclose on any Collateral pledged by any such individual Borrower:  (A) the amount of the obligations under the Revolving Credit Facilities shall be reduced only by the price for which such Collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if such Collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Lenders may collect from such individual Borrower with respect to such obligation even if Lenders, by foreclosing on such Collateral, have destroyed any right such individual Borrower may have to collect from any other Loan Party.

Section 2.20 Reserved .

Section 2.21 HUD Revolving Credit Sub-Facility .  Upon the request of LLC Parent on behalf of Borrowers, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, the Loan Parties on a Consolidated Basis are Solvent and in compliance with each financial covenant set forth in Article 5 (without giving effect to any cure period applicable thereto) as of the date of such request, Secured Parties agree to negotiate in good faith to amend the amount and certain terms and conditions of the HUD Sub-Facility Credit Agreement then in effect and to enter into necessary intercreditor or other agreements in connection therewith, all consistent with Administrative Agent’s usual and customary business practices.  The HUD Sub-Facility Credit Agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 2.21 (the “ HUD Sub-Facility ”) has been and will be created to enable one or more Borrowers to own or lease Real Property that is guaranteed by or is otherwise subject to a mortgage, deed of trust or similar encumbrance in favor of HUD and shall be a sub-facility of the Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $120,000,000.  Under no circumstances will the HUD Sub-Facility involve aggregate commitments greater than $120,000,000 outstanding at any time.  Upon any increase in the commitments under the HUD Sub-Facility, (A) in the case of any such increase involving a Borrower becoming a HUD Sub-Facility Entity, the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders hereunder will be reduced pro rata in an amount such that the sum of the commitments under the HUD Sub-Facility plus the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders hereunder will remain constant.  Among other terms and conditions, Loan Parties shall (i) remain responsible for the payment in

(iii) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fees payable under Section 2.11 for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

70


 

 

as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided , further, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(i) On each Settlement Date, Administrative Agent will advise each Delayed Draw Term Lender by telephone, facsimile or e-mail of the amount of each such Lender’s percentage interest of the Delayed Draw Term Loan balance as of the close of business of the Business Day immediately preceding the Settlement Date.  In the event that payments are necessary to adjust the amount of such Lender’s actual percentage interest of the Delayed Draw Term Loan balance to such Lender’s required percentage interest of the Delayed Draw Term Loan balance as of any Settlement Date, the Lender from which such payment is due shall pay Administrative Agent, without setoff or discount, to the Agent Collection Account before 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Business Day following the Settlement Date the full amount necessary to make such adjustment.  Any obligation arising pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever.  In the event settlement shall not have occurred by the date and time specified in the second preceding sentence, interest

125


 

 

shall accrue on the unsettled amount at the rate of interest then applicable to Revolving Loans.

(ii) Payments of principal, interest and fees in respect of the Term Loans will be settled on the date of receipt if received by Administrative Agent on the last Business Day of a month or on the Business Day immediately following the date of receipt if received on any day other than the last Business Day of a month.

(c) Return of Payments .  If Administrative Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Administrative Agent from a Borrower and such related payment is not received by Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, together with interest accruing on a daily basis at the Federal Funds Rate.

(i) If Administrative Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Administrative Agent under this Agreement must be returned to any Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender.  In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Administrative Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Administrative Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(b) Each waiver or consent under any Loan Document shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.  No notice to or demand on any Loan Party shall entitle any Loan Party to any notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.  No failure on the part of any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

Section 11.2 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect .

(a) Binding Effect .  This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Borrowers and Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender and L/C Issuer that such Lender or L/C Issuer has executed it.  Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, Borrowers (except for Article 10 ), Administrative Agent, each Lender and L/C Issuer and, to the extent provided in Section 10.11 , each other Indemnitee and Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns.  Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 10.9 ), none of Borrower, any L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

(b) Right to Assign .  Each Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its aggregate Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit) to (i) any existing Lender (other than a Restricted Person), (ii) any Affiliate of any existing Lender (other than a Restricted Person), (iii) any Person to whom such Lender has pledged its Loans and Commitments hereunder in connection with the exercise of remedies by such Person or (iv) any other Person (other than a Restricted Person) acceptable (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to Administrative Agent and, as long as no Event of Default is continuing, Borrower; provided ,   however , that (x) such Transfers must be ratable among the obligations owing to and owed by such Lender with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loans and Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility and (y) the aggregate amount of any assignment subject to any such Transfer shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, unless such Transfer is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate of any existing Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates) entire interest in the Revolving Credit Facility, Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility and outstanding Loans or is made with the prior consent of Borrowers and Administrative Agent.

(c) Procedure .  The parties to each Transfer made in reliance on clause (b) above (other than those described in clause (e) below) shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment via an electronic settlement system designated by Administrative Agent (or if previously agreed with Administrative Agent, via a manual execution and delivery of the assignment) evidencing such Transfer, together with any existing Note subject to such Transfer (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to Administrative Agent), any tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.17(d) and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500; provided , that (1) if a Transfer by a Lender is made to an Affiliate of such assigning Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in connection with such Transfer, and (2) if a Transfer by a Lender is made to an assignee that is not an Affiliate of such assignor Lender, and concurrently to one or

128


 

 

more Affiliates of such assignee, then only one assignment fee of $3,500 shall be due in connection with such Transfer.  Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such assignment is made in accordance with clause (iii) of Section 11.2(b) , upon Administrative Agent (and Borrower, if applicable) consenting to such Assignment, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment, Administrative Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.  This Section 11.2(c) shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

(d) Effectiveness .  Subject to the recording of an Assignment by Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.14(b) , (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender, (ii) any applicable Note shall be transferred to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto except that each Lender agrees to remain bound by Article 10 ,   Section 11.8 (Right of Setoff) and  Section 11.9 (Sharing of Payments, Etc.) to the extent provided in Section 10.11 (Additional Secured Parties)).

(e) Participants and SPVs .  In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 11.2 , each Lender may, (x) with notice to Administrative Agent, grant to an SPV (other than a Defaulting Lender) the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from Administrative Agent or Borrower, sell participations to one or more Persons (other than a Defaulting Lender) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Loans and Letters of Credit); provided ,   however , that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Loans hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Loan Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Requirements) and 2.17 (Taxes), but only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the tax forms such Lender is required to collect pursuant to Section 2.17(d) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Lender would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Loans funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to Administrative Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided ,   however , that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Lender’s ability to consent

129


 

 

hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 11.1(a) with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in Section 11.1(a)(v) (or amendments, consents and waivers with respect to Section 10.10 to release all or substantially all of the Collateral).  No party hereto shall institute (and each Borrower shall cause each other Loan Party not to institute) against any SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this clause (e) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is one (1) year and one (1) day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided ,   however , that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to get reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability).  The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations.

(f) Market Flexibility .  Borrowers acknowledge and agree that Administrative Agent reserves the right, prior to or after the execution of Loan Documents, to syndicate, sell, assign, transfer, participate, deposit with a trust or issue mortgage pass-through certificates or other securities evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement, or otherwise securitize all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Facility to one or more financial institutions or investors (collectively, the “ Secondary Market Investors ”) in the public or private markets that will become parties to, or otherwise acquire an interest in, such Loan Documents or the Revolving Credit Facility (any such transaction, a “ Secondary Market Transaction ”) in one or more transactions managed by MCF.

MCF may commence such efforts at any time or from time to time.  To the extent a Secondary Market Transaction is pursued by MCF, Permitted Investors and Borrowers agree to actively assist and cooperate with MCF and Administrative Agent to facilitate the Secondary Market Transaction in a timely and orderly manner.  Such assistance may include (i) using reasonable efforts to ensure that such efforts benefit materially from existing banking and investment relationships of Borrowers and the Permitted Investors and their respective Affiliates, (ii) direct contact, during the Secondary Market Transaction efforts, between senior management, representatives and advisors and potential Secondary Market Investors, (iii) assistance in the preparation of information to be used in connection with such efforts (including review of any offering memorandum, prospectus, filing with respect to the Secondary Market Transaction and indemnification of Administrative Agent and MCF with respect to untrue or misleading statements contained therein of which Borrowers, Permitted Investors or their respective Affiliates were aware), (iv) hosting or participating in one or more meetings with potential Secondary Market Investors, (v) providing such financial and other information as reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, and (vi) providing such legal opinions as reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or MCF.

In furtherance of such efforts of MCF, Borrowers agree (at their own cost and expense) to implement any changes or modifications reasonably necessary to facilitate the marketability of the Revolving Credit Facility, whether or not actually associated with a specific Secondary Market Transaction, which changes and modifications may include a bifurcation of the Revolving Credit Facility (or any pool or sub-pool thereof) into two or more separate and distinct financings, the obligations for which may be assigned to, or undertaken by, separate pools of borrowers (such as the HUD Sub-Facility); provided ,   however , the overall economics to the Loan Parties shall not be materially adversely affected by any such action.

130


 

 

(g) Assignments to Federal Reserve Banks and Financing Sources .  In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.2 , any Lender may (without notice or consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers or any other Person and without payment of any fee) assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans to any U.S. Federal Reserve Bank or other comparable foreign central bank  as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System or similar foreign regulation and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or other comparable foreign central bank.  No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.  Any Lender further may (notice or consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers or any other Person and without payment of any fee) assign and pledge the Loans as collateral security for loans to a Lender.

(h) Assignments by Defaulting Lender .  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable ratable share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, and each Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full ratable share of all Loans; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Requirements of Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Section 11.3 Costs and Expenses .  Any action taken by any Loan Party under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the request of any Secured Party, shall be at the expense of such Loan Party, and no Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Loan Party therefor except as expressly provided therein.  In addition, Borrowers agree to pay or reimburse upon demand (a) Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket (except with respect to in-house charges in accordance with the last sentence of this paragraph) costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, negotiation, syndication, execution, interpretation, administration, amendment, amendment and restatement or other modification, of any Loan Document and/or term in or termination of any Loan Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation and administration of any transaction contemplated therein (including periodic audits in connection therewith and environmental audits and assessments), in each case including the reasonable and documented fees, charges (including with respect to in-house charges in accordance with the last sentence of this paragraph) and disbursements of a single legal counsel to Administrative Agent or such Related Persons, taken as a whole (and necessary regulatory counsel, a single local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction (which may include a single local counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, of another firm of counsel for such affected Person), reasonable out-of-pocket and documented fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with Intralinks® or any other E-System and allocated to the Revolving Credit Facilities by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, and reasonable out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements for and of the auditors, appraisers, and printers retained by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, in each case, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses not invoiced prior to the Closing Date, (b) Administrative

Section 11.4 Indemnities .

(a) Borrowers agree to jointly and severally indemnify, hold harmless and defend Administrative Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer, each Secured Hedging Counterparty, each Person that each L/C Issuer causes to Issue Letters of Credit hereunder and each of their respective Related Persons (each such Person being an “ Indemnitee ”) from and against all Liabilities (including brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of (i) any Loan Document, any Related Document, including the Welltower Term Loan Agreement and the Welltower Term Loan Documents, the Skilled RE Credit Agreement and the Skilled RE Loan Documents, the MidCap RE Credit Agreement and the MidCap RE Loan Documents, any Disclosure Document, any Obligation (or the repayment thereof), any Letter of Credit, the use or intended use of the proceeds of any Loan or the use of any Letter of Credit, any transaction contemplated by a Related Document, including the Welltower Term Loan Agreement and the Welltower Term Loan Documents, the Skilled RE Credit Agreement and the Skilled RE Loan Documents, the MidCap RE Credit Agreement and the MidCap RE Loan Documents, or any securities filing of, or with respect to, any Loan Party; provided ,   however , with respect to Liabilities arising from any Related Document, such Liabilities (A) shall be claimed by the Indemnitee under such Related Document to the extent arising thereunder (by way of example, if the Liability of a Lender arises solely as a result of such Lender also being a lender under the Welltower Term Loan Facility, such Lender must seek indemnity pursuant to the Welltower Term Loan Documents and not this Agreement), and (B) shall be claimed without duplication of any indemnity provided under any Related Document, (ii) any commitment letter, proposal letter or term sheet with any Person or any Contractual Obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the foregoing and any Contractual Obligation entered into in connection with any E-Systems or other Electronic Transmissions in connection with any of the foregoing, (iii) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or other proceeding, whether or not brought

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes (i) [reserved]; (ii) any claims, proceedings or causes of action brought by any resident of a Facility; and (iii) any loss, damage, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or suffered by any Indemnitee as a result of any (x) breach by a Borrower of any contract or lease with a resident of a Facility or (y) violation of any applicable Requirement of Law governing a Facility or the uses described in Section 4.1(b) .

Section 11.6 Limitation of Liability for Certain Damages .  In addition to, and not in substitution for or limitation of, the obligations in Section 11.4, in no event shall any party hereto be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings).  Each party hereto hereby waives, releases and agrees (and shall cause each other party hereto to waive, release and agree) not to sue upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

Section 11.7 Lender-Creditor Relationship .  The relationship between the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and Administrative Agent, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of lender and creditor.  No Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Loan Parties by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction

133


 

 

contemplated therein.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time, a Loan Party shall have a claim based on any theory of the existence (actual or implied) of a fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein, each Loan Party expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each and every claim it may have against Secured Parties in respect of any such fiduciary relationship claim.

Section 11.8 Right of Setoff .  Each of Administrative Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Loan Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by Administrative Agent, such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any Obligation of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders and (y) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  Each of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify Borrowers and Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided ,   however , that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.  The rights under this Section 11.8 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers and their Affiliates and other Secured Parties may have.

Section 11.9 Sharing of Payments, Etc .  If any Lender, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Loan Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Sections 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Requirements), 2.17 (Taxes) and 2.18 (Substitution of Lenders) and such payment exceeds the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Secured Parties such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such Secured Parties to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of Borrower, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided ,   however , that (a) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Lender or L/C Issuer in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Lender or L/C Issuer without interest and (b) such Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

Section 11.10 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside; Protective Advances .  No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Loan Party or any other party or against or in payment of any Obligation.  To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from Borrower, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be

134


 

 

fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.  Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 11.10 , upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Event of Default, Administrative Agent is authorized by Loan Parties and the Secured Parties, from time to time in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but Administrative Agent shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Loans to Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders, which Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Loan Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, payments of principal, interest, fees, reimbursable expenses, taxes or insurance (any of such Loans are in this clause (c) referred to as “ Protective Advances ”); provided , that the amount of Revolving Credit Outstanding plus Protective Advances shall not exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect.  Protective Advances may be made even if the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 3 have not been satisfied.  Protective Advances shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect at any time without the prior consent of Required Revolving Lenders.  Each Protective Advance shall be secured by the Liens on the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall constitute Obligations hereunder.  The Loan Parties shall pay the unpaid principal amount and all unpaid and accrued interest of each Protective Advance on the earlier of the Termination Date and the date on which demand for payment is made by Administrative Agent.  Each Loan Party agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent, on demand, for all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with such payment or performance and agrees that such amounts shall constitute Obligations.  Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehousemen, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other bailee if such Person has been selected by Administrative Agent in good faith.  In addition to and not in limitation of any other provision set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Loan Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the powers conferred on Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect Administrative Agent’s interest (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers.

Section 11.14 Jurisdiction .

137


 

 

District of New York and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Loan Party hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of Administrative Agent to commence any proceeding in the federal or state courts of any other jurisdiction to the extent Administrative Agent determines that such action is necessary or appropriate to exercise its rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.  The parties hereto (and, to the extent set forth in any other Loan Document, each other Loan Party) hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, that any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdictions.

(b) Service of Process .  Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and other documents and other service of process of any kind and consents to such service in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America with respect to or otherwise arising out of or in connection with any Loan Document by any means permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, including by the mailing thereof (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) to the address of Borrowers specified in Section 11.11 (and shall be effective when such mailing shall be effective, as provided therein).  Each Loan Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) Non-Exclusive Jurisdiction .  Nothing contained in this Section 11.14 shall affect the right of Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Requirements of Law or commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any Loan Party in any other jurisdiction.

Section 11.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL .  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO, OR DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN OR RELATED THERETO (WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO OTHER PARTY AND NO RELATED PERSON OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.15 .

Section 11.16 Severability .  Any provision of any Loan Document being held illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not affect any part of such provision not held illegal, invalid or unenforceable, any other provision of any Loan Document or any part of such provision in any other jurisdiction.  Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent then such provision shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 11.17 Execution in Counterparts .  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single

138


 

 

counterpart.  Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

Section 11.18 Entire Agreement .  The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter thereof and any prior letter of interest, commitment letter, fee letter, confidentiality and similar agreements involving any Loan Party and any of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates relating to a financing of substantially similar form, purpose or effect.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall govern (unless such terms of such other Loan Documents are necessary to comply with applicable Requirements of Law, in which case such terms shall govern to the extent necessary to comply therewith).

Section 11.19 Usury .  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.  If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect.  In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrowers to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration that constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Borrowers.

Section 11.20 Use of Name .  Each party hereto agrees that it shall not, and none of its Affiliates shall, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of Securities) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to the other party or of any of its Affiliates, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated therein to which the Secured Parties are party without at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to such other party and without the prior consent of such other party except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law and then, only after consulting with such other party prior thereto.

Section 11.21 Non-Public Information; Confidentiality .

(a) Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information hereunder concerning the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and Subsidiaries and agrees to use such information in compliance with all relevant policies, procedures and Contractual Obligations and applicable Requirements of Laws (including United States federal and state security laws and regulations).

(b) Each Lender, L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent agrees to use all reasonable efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of information obtained by it pursuant to any Loan Document and designated in writing by any Loan Party as

139


 

 

confidential, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with Borrowers’ consent, (ii) to Related Persons of such Lender, L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, or to any Person that any L/C Issuer causes to Issue Letters of Credit hereunder, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes available to such Lender, L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, on a non-confidential basis from a source other than any Loan Party, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of Law or other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority, (v) to the extent necessary or customary for inclusion in league table measurements or in any tombstone or other advertising materials (and the Loan Parties consent to the publication of such tombstone or other advertising materials by Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their Related Persons), (vi) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify borrowers, (vii) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs grantees of any option described in Section 11.2(e) or participants, direct or contractual counterparties to any Hedge Agreement permitted hereunder and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to the extent such assignees, participants, counterparties or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 11.21 , (viii) to a Person that is a trustee, investment advisor or investment manager, collateral manager, servicer, financing sources of Administrative Agent or any Lender, in each case, who (x) are informed of the confidential nature of such information and (y) (1) are subject to customary confidentiality obligations of professional practice or (2) agree to be bound by the terms of this paragraph (or language substantially similar to this paragraph) (it being understood and agreed that each Lender, L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent shall be responsible for any breach of the confidentiality obligations under this paragraph by any such person to whom disclosure is made in accordance with this clause (viii) and (ix) in connection with the exercise of any remedy under any Loan Document.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 11.21 and those of any other Contractual Obligation entered into with any Loan Party (whether or not a Loan Document), the terms of this Section 11.21 shall govern.

Section 11.22 Patriot Act Notice .  Each Lender subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies Borrowers that, pursuant to Section 326 thereof, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, including the name and address of Borrowers and other information allowing such Lender to identify Borrowers in accordance with such act.

Section 11.23 Agent for Loan Parties .

(a) Each of the entities comprising Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes LLC Parent as its agent to request and receive advances in respect of the Loans (and to otherwise act on behalf of each such entity pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) from Administrative Agent in the name or on behalf of each such entity.  Administrative Agent may disburse proceeds of the Loans to the bank account of any one or more of such entities without notice to any of the other entities comprising Borrowers or any other Person at any time obligated on or in respect of the Obligations.

(b) Each of the entities comprising Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes LLC Parent as its agent to receive statements of account and all other notices from Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

140


 

 

(c) Each of the entities comprising Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes LLC Parent as its agent to execute and deliver the Loan Documents, the Environmental Indemnity, any amendments to or waivers of any of the foregoing and any other agreements, documents, instruments, records or filings delivered under or in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Environmental Indemnity, in the name of or on behalf of such entity.  Each of the entities comprising Borrowers hereby ratifies any and all Loan Documents and any and all other agreements, documents, instruments, records or filings previously executed and delivered by LLC Parent or GHLLC under or in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Environmental Indemnity in such Borrower’s name or on its behalf.

(d) No purported termination of the appointment of LLC Parent as agent for Borrowers shall be effective without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.

Section 11.24 Existing Agreements Superseded; Exhibits and Schedules.

(a) The Original Credit Agreement, including the schedules thereto, is superseded by this Agreement, including the schedules hereto, which has been executed in renewal, amendment, restatement and modification of, but not in novation or extinguishment of, the obligations under the Original Credit Agreement.  Any and all outstanding amounts under the Original Credit Agreement including, but not limited to principal, accrued interest, fees and other charges, as of the Closing Date shall be carried over and deemed outstanding under this Agreement.

141

SECTION II. JOINDER OF NEW LENDERS .

2.1 Joinder .  Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section IV hereof, each New Lender shall be (a) a “Revolving Credit Lender” and (b) a “Lender”, in each case, under the Credit Agreement as of the Effective Date.   Each New Lender shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to Lenders, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guarantees and security interests created by the Security Documents.

2.2 New Lender Confirmations .  Each New Lender hereby (i) confirms that (w) it is not a Restricted Person, (x) it has received a copy of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this this Amendment and to make the Loans and/or provide the Commitments, as applicable, (y) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make loans similar to those contemplated to be made hereunder and (z) it is experienced in making loans of such type; (ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(b) Computations of Interests and Fees .  All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in the case of Base Rate Loans whose interest rate is calculated based on the rate set forth in clause (a) of the definition of “Base Rate,” 365/366 days), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable.  Each determination of an interest rate or the amount of a fee hereunder shall be made by Administrative Agent (including determinations of a LIBOR – Revolving Loan or Base Rate in accordance with the definitions of LIBOR Rate and Base Rate, respectively) as set forth in the respective definition thereof and shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) Illegality .  If any Lender determines that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any Requirement of Law after the date of this Agreement shall make it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make LIBOR Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to Administrative Loan Party through Administrative Agent, the obligation of such Lender to make or to continue LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended as provided in clause (c) below until such Lender shall, through Administrative Agent, notify Administrative Loan Party that it has determined that it may lawfully make LIBOR Rate Loans.

(a) Breakage Costs .   Borrowers shall compensate each Lender, upon demand from such Lender to such Borrower (with copy to Administrative Agent), for all Liabilities (including, in each case, those incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to prepare to fund, to fund or to maintain the LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender to Borrowers but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans) that such Lender may incur (A) to the extent, for any reason other than solely by reason of such Lender being a Defaulting Lender, a proposed Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation or in a similar request made by telephone by Administrative Loan Party on behalf of Borrowers, (B) to the extent any LIBOR Rate Loan is paid (whether through a scheduled, optional or mandatory prepayment) or converted to a Base Rate Loan (including because of Section 2.15 ) on a date that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period or (C) as a consequence of any failure by Borrowers to repay LIBOR Rate Loans when required by the terms hereof.  For purposes of this clause (a) , each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each LIBOR Rate Loan made by it using a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank market.

(c) Increased Capital Requirements .  If at any time any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that, after the Closing Date, the adoption of, or any change in or in the interpretation, application or administration of, or compliance with, any Requirement of Law (other than any imposition or increase of Reserve Requirements) from any Governmental Authority regarding capital adequacy, reserves, liquidity requirements, special deposits, compulsory loans, insurance charges against property of, deposits with or for the account of, Obligations owing to, or other credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or L/C Issuer or any similar requirement (in each case other than any imposition or increase of Reserve Requirements) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or L/C Issuer (or any corporation controlling such Lender or L/C Issuer) as a consequence of its obligations under or with respect to any Loan Document or Letter of Credit to a level below that which, taking into account the capital adequacy policies of such Lender, L/C Issuer, or corporation, such Lender, L/C Issuer, or corporation could have achieved but for such adoption or change, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy of such demand to Administrative Agent), Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction.

(d) Compensation Certificate .  Each demand for compensation under this Section 2.16 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Lender or L/C Issuer claiming such compensation, setting forth the amounts to be paid hereunder, which certificate shall be prima facie evidence of such, absent manifest error.  In determining such amount, such Lender or L/C Issuer may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date such Lender or L/C Issuer notifies the Borrowers of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefore; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have retroactive effect, then such six month period shall be extended to include such period of retroactive effect.

accurate and complete original, signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions or successors to such forms, in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender Party.  Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender Party on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any participant, on or before the date such participant purchases the related participation).  In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender Party shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender Party.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender Party shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender Party is not legally able to deliver.

(e) Each Secured Party that is a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “ U.S. Lender Party ”) shall deliver to Administrative Loan Party and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete original, signed copies of IRS Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form.  Such forms shall be delivered by each U.S. Lender Party on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement.  In addition, each U.S. Lender Party shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such U.S. Lender Party.

(f) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and any Secured Party, within 30 days after the written demand therefor, the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or Secured Party whether or not such Taxes are correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such amount or liability delivered to Administrative Loan Party by a Secured Party (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or by the Administrative Agent on its behalf of on behalf of a Secured Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(g) If any Secured Party determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly pay over such refund to the Borrowers (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Loan Party under this Section with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party, agree to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party in the event the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Administrative Agent or Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the Secured Party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Secured Party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to make available its Tax Returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person.

(h) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Non-

Excluded Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), and (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h).  The agreements in this paragraph (h) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

(i) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Administrative Loan Party and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Administrative Loan Party or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Administrative Loan Party or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this paragraph, FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(b) Procedure .  To substitute such Affected Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility, Administrative Loan Party on behalf of Borrowers shall deliver a notice to Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender.  The effectiveness of such substitution shall be subject to the

(c) Effectiveness .  Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clause (b) above, Administrative Agent shall record such substitution or payment in the Register, whereupon (i) in the case of any payment in full in the Revolving Credit Facility, such Affected Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments in the Revolving Credit Facility shall be terminated and (ii) in the case of any substitution in the Revolving Credit Facility, (A) the Affected Lender shall sell and be relieved of, and the Substitute Lender shall purchase and assume, all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, except that the Affected Lender shall retain such rights expressly providing that they survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, (B) the Substitute Lender shall become a “Lender” hereunder having a Revolving Credit Commitment in the Revolving Credit Facility in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment in the Revolving Credit Facility and (C) the Affected Lender shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment to evidence such substitution and deliver any Note in its possession with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility; provided ,   however , that the failure of any Affected Lender to execute any such Assignment or deliver any such Note shall not render such sale and purchase (or the corresponding assignment) invalid.

Section 2.19 Contribution .

(a) Right of Contribution .  To satisfy obligations hereunder or otherwise for the benefit of one or more of the other Borrowers, if any Borrower (the “ Overpaying Borrower ”) (i) makes any payment in excess of its Allocable Share, or (ii) incurs a loss of its Collateral due to the foreclosure (or other realization by Lender) of, or the delivery of deeds in lieu of foreclosure relating to its Collateral and the value of such Collateral exceeded its Allocable Share, then such Overpaying Borrower shall be entitled, after indefeasible payment in full and the satisfaction of all obligations to Lender under the Loan Documents, to contribution from each of the benefited

(ii) The provisions of this Section 10.12(a) shall be deemed to be binding upon Administrative Agent and Lenders notwithstanding the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, or any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding pertaining to any Borrower or any other Loan Party.

(b) Return of Payments.  If Administrative Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Administrative Agent from a Borrower and such related payment is not received by Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, together with interest accruing on a daily basis at the Federal Funds Rate.

(h) Assignments by Defaulting Lender .  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee

Section 11.7 Lender-Creditor Relationship .  The relationship between the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and Administrative Agent, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of lender and creditor.  No Secured Party has any fiduciary or advisory relationship or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Loan Parties by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time, a Loan Party shall have a claim based on any theory of the existence (actual or implied) of a fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein, each Loan Party expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each and every claim it may have against Secured Parties in respect of any such fiduciary relationship claim.

Section 11.8 Right of Setoff .  Each of Administrative Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Loan Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by Administrative Agent, such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any Obligation of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders and (y) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  Each of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify Borrowers and Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided ,   however , that the failure to give such notice

 

113

 

Second Amended and Restated Genesis Revolving Credit Agreement (HUD Facility)

shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.  The rights under this Section 11.8 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers and their Affiliates and other Secured Parties may have.

Section 11.9 Sharing of Payments, Etc .  If any Lender, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Loan Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Sections 2.16 (Breakage Costs; Increased Costs; Capital Requirements), 2.17 (Taxes) and 2.18 (Substitution of Lenders) and such payment exceeds the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Secured Parties such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such Secured Parties to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of Borrower, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided ,   however , that (a) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Lender or L/C Issuer in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Lender or L/C Issuer without interest and (b) such Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

Section 11.10 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside; Protective Advances .  No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Loan Party or any other party or against or in payment of any Obligation.  To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from Borrower, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.  Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 11.10 , upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Event of Default, Administrative Agent is authorized by Loan Parties and the Secured Parties, from time to time in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but Administrative Agent shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Base Rate Loans to Borrowers on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders, which Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Loan Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, payments of principal, interest, fees, reimbursable expenses, taxes or insurance (any of such Loans are in this clause (c) referred to as “ Protective Advances ”); provided, that the amount of Revolving Credit Outstanding plus Protective Advances shall not exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect.  Protective Advances may be made even if the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 3 have not been satisfied.  Protective Advances shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect at any time without the prior consent of Required Lenders.  Each Protective Advance shall be secured by the Liens on the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall constitute Obligations hereunder.  The Loan Parties shall pay the unpaid principal amount and all unpaid and accrued interest of each Protective Advance on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Termination Date and the date on which demand for payment is made by Administrative Agent.  Each Loan Party agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent, on demand, for all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with such payment or performance and agrees that such amounts shall constitute Obligations.  Administrative Agent shall not be

liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehousemen, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other bailee if such Person has been selected by Administrative Agent in good faith.  In addition to and not in limitation of any other provision set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Loan Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the powers conferred on Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect Administrative Agent’s interest (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers.

(c) Non-Exclusive Jurisdiction .  Nothing contained in this Section 11.14 shall affect the right of Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Requirements of Law or commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any Loan Party in any other jurisdiction.

Section 11.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL .  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO, OR DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN OR RELATED THERETO (WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO OTHER PARTY AND NO RELATED PERSON OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.15 .

Section 11.17 Execution in Counterparts .  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart.  Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

Section 11.18 Entire Agreement .  The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter thereof and any prior letter of interest, commitment letter, fee letter, confidentiality and similar agreements involving any Loan Party and any of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates relating to a financing of substantially similar form, purpose or effect.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall govern (unless such terms of such other Loan Documents are necessary to comply with applicable Requirements of Law, in which case such terms shall govern to the extent necessary to comply therewith).

Section 11.19 Usury .  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.  If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect.  In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrowers to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration that constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Borrowers.

Section 11.20 Use of Name .  Each party hereto agrees that it shall not, and none of its Affiliates shall, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of Securities) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to the other party or of any of its Affiliates, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated therein to which the Secured Parties are party without at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to such other party and without the prior consent of such other party except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law and then, only after consulting with such other party prior thereto.

Section 11.21 Non-Public Information; Confidentiality .

(a) Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information hereunder concerning the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and Subsidiaries and agrees to use such information in compliance with all relevant policies, procedures and Contractual Obligations and applicable Requirements of Laws (including United States federal and state security laws and regulations).

42


 

 

If any such Taxes that are not Excluded Taxes (the “ Non-Excluded Taxes ”) or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder, the amounts payable by the Borrower or such Guarantor shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after deduction or withholding of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement.

(c) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “ Non-U.S. Lender ”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Borrower and to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) (i) two accurate and complete signed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8EXP, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (claiming benefits under an applicable treaty) or W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying forms), whichever is applicable, (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from United States federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F and two accurate and complete signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or any subsequent versions or successors to such forms, in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender.  Such forms shall be delivered by each Non‑U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation), and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent.  In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or by the Administrative Agent on its behalf of on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) If any Secured Party determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Administrative Agent or Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the Lender or the Administrative Agent in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender or the Administrative Agent would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax Returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Non-Excluded Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h).  The agreements in this paragraph (h) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

(h) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this paragraph, FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

SECTION 9. THE AGENTS

9.2 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 Article 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

84


 

 

connection with the syndication of the Facility as well as activities as the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub‑agents.

 

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions .   No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall: (i) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except (in the case of the Administrative Agent) 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, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law; and (iii) 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 such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

 

(a) 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 Section 8 and Section 10.1), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”

(b) No Agent-Related Person shall 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 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 4 or elsewhere herein, other than (in the case of the Administrative Agent) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to it

9.4 Reliance by the Agents .  Each 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.  Each 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 any borrowing that by its terms shall be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior

85


 

 

to any such borrowing.  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 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders .  Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agents taken on and after the Closing Date, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender.  Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under the applicable Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agents hereunder, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of either Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

 

9.6 Indemnification .  Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and without limiting the obligations of any Loan Party to do so) on a pro   rata basis (determined as of the time that the applicable payment is sought based on each Lender’s ratable share at such time) and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided that no Lender shall be liable for payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct (and no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lender shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section).  In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights and responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such costs or expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower.

 

To the extent required by any applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any U.S. federal income Tax.  If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold U.S. federal income Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal income

86


 

 

Tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred in connection therewith.

9.7 Agent in Its Individual Capacity .  Any Agent 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 an Agent hereunder, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as such Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Ultimate Parent or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

 

9.8 Successor Agents .  The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent (which may be an Affiliate of a Lender), with the consent of the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Sections 8.1(b), (c), (g) or (h) (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on such effective date, where (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 under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) 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 directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above.  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 Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  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 and Section 9.3 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.

 

9.9 Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees .  The Agents are hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any release or subordination of Liens or Guarantee Obligations contemplated by Section 10.15 without further action or consent by the Lenders.  The Agents are hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to (and to execute any documents or instruments necessary to) enter into any intercreditor agreement contemplated by the terms hereof (including, without limitation, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Material Master Lease Intercreditor Agreements) (and in the case of any such intercreditor agreement entered into prior to the Closing Date, the Lenders hereby ratify and

87

(c) Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans.  In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agents shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing unless limited by the terms of such waiver, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent on any such subsequent or other Default or Event of Default

89


 

 

prior to such refinancing (and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement) and (v) each Lender under the applicable tranche or tranches of Loans being extended shall have the opportunity to participate in such extension on the same terms and conditions as each other Lender in such tranche or tranches; provided that no existing Lender will have any obligation to commit to any such extension.

(d) [reserved];

(e) [reserved];

(i) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.15 or 2.16 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 to such greater amounts.  No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.16(d) or (e), as (and to the extent) applicable, as if such Participant were a Lender.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the

94


 

 

name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “ Participant Register ”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(h) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, 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 (i) a Federal Reserve Bank or (ii) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender’s Capital Stock, voting trust certificates, bonds, debentures, instruments and other evidence of Indebtedness, and all warrants, options and other rights to acquire the foregoing, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.  The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in this paragraph (i).

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off .   Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a “ Benefited Lender ”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Sections 8(g) or (h), or otherwise), other than in connection with assignments hereunder, in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Obligations, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Obligations, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided ,   however , that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

 

(a) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) after the expiration of any cure or grace periods, to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding trust accounts, employee benefit accounts, payroll, petty cash, tax and withholding accounts and the like), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of

95


 

 

the Borrower.   Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender.  Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.9 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 not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

10.10 Integration .  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the Parent Companies, the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Omnibus Agreement.  Notwithstanding this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Parent Companies, the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders agree that the Omnibus Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall remain enforceable in accordance with their terms; provided, that the provisions therein defining “New Capital” and “Trigger Event” shall be deemed to be updated and conformed to the corresponding definitions herein.

(b) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section.  Each

B. Subsidiaries or affiliates of WT, as lender, and subsidiaries or affiliates of Genesis, as borrower, are parties to various loan and related documents in effect as of the date hereof including (i) that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (A-2), that certain Consolidated Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, and that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (B-1), each having an effective date of October 1, 2016 (collectively, as further amended, restated, supplemented or modified, and as further amended by the amended and restated notes (the “ Amended Bridge Loan Notes ”) executed on the date hereof, the “ Bridge Loan Agreement ”), in each case between WT as lender and Genesis as borrower, pursuant to which WT has made certain  loans (collectively the “ Bridge Loan ”) available to Genesis and (ii) that certain Term Loan Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2016 (as amended, restated, supplemented or modified, the “ Term Loan Agreement ”), among WT as administrative agent, collateral agent and lender, other lenders party thereto and Genesis as borrower, pursuant to which a term loan (“ Term Loan ”) has been made available to Genesis (such documents, together with all other documentation evidencing, securing, guaranteeing and/or relating to such loans, are referred to collectively as the “ Loan Documents ”; the loans and other financial accommodations thereunder are referred to collectively as the “ Loans ”; the Loan Documents and the Existing Master Lease, inclusive of the modifications effectuated pursuant to the Current Modifications (and, upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent therefore and effectuation of the Future Modifications referred to below, the modifications effectuated pursuant to the Future Modifications), are referred to collectively as the “ Transaction Documents ”; and  the transactions and undertakings covered by the Transaction Documents are referred to collectively as the “ Transactions ”); and

C. In addition to the amendments reflected in the Second Amendment, Genesis has requested WT to agree to certain modifications to the Bridge Loan, including those set forth in the Amended Bridge Loan Notes, which would be effective on the date hereof (the “ Bridge Loan Modifications ”, and together with all other modifications being entered into with respect to any of the Transaction Documents on the date hereof are referred to collectively as the “ Current


 

Modifications ”) and to agree to enter into certain modifications to the Term Loan, as described in Section 2(e) below, but only upon the timely occurrence of certain conditions precedent as set forth herein (the modifications to the Term Loan, the “ Future Modifications ”).

D. WT would not enter into the Current Modifications or agree to the Future Modifications but for Genesis agreeing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, and, accordingly, as a material inducement to WT to enter into the Current Modifications and the Future Modifications, Genesis is executing and delivering this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

1. Existing Master Lease .  

(a) Genesis acknowledges and agrees that WT has the right, and is actively seeking, to sell assets covered by the Existing Master Lease, and Genesis hereby agrees it is obligated for all of the Sale Cooperation Obligations (defined below) with respect to WT’s efforts to sell such assets and the consummation of such sales. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Genesis hereby agrees it is obligated for all the Sale Cooperation Obligations with respect to the sale to one or more third party buyers, including buyers which may be identified by WT and in which WT may have beneficial interests (collectively, including any designee thereof who takes title to any asset, “ Buyers ”), of the following categories of assets covered by the Existing Master Lease:

(i) the lessor’s interest in the 52 long-term care facilities which are identified as ‘LTC Assets’ on   Schedule 1 hereto (the “ LTC Assets ”; the sales of LTC Assets in accordance herewith are referred to as  “ LTC Sales ”);

(ii) the lessor’s interest in the 9 PowerBack facilities which are identified as ‘PowerBack Assets’ on Schedule 1 hereto (the “ PowerBack Assets ”, and, together with the LTC Assets, the “ Lessor Interest Assets ”; the sales of PowerBack Assets in accordance herewith are referred to as “ PowerBack Sales ”, and, together with the LTC Sales, the “ Lessor Interest Sales ”);  (for greater clarity, the PowerBack Remington facility in Richardson, TX (the “ Richardson Asset ”) is not treated as a ‘PowerBack Asset’ for purposes of this Agreement and instead is listed separately on Schedule 1 as ‘Whole Sale Asset – Texas’, and will be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a Whole Sale Asset);

(iii) (x) the lessor’s and the lessee’s interest in the 14 facilities which are identified as ‘Whole Sale Assets - Cascade’ on Schedule 1 hereto and (y) the lessor’s and the lessee’s interest in the Richardson Asset which is identified as ‘Whole Sale Asset – Texas’ on Schedule 1 hereto ((x) and (y), collectively, the “ Whole Sale Assets ”; the sales of Whole Sale Assets in accordance herewith are referred to as  “ Whole Sales ”);

(iv) the lessor’s and the lessee’s interest in the 2 ‘Closure Assets’ identified as ‘Closure Assets’ on Schedule 1 hereto (the “ Closure Assets ”; the sales of Closure Assets in accordance herewith  are referred to as “ Closure Sales ”); and

2


 

(v) any vacant land or other assets covered by the Existing Master Lease, which are identified as  ‘Other Assets’ on Schedule 1 (collectively, “ Other Assets ”;   the sales of Other Assets in accordance herewith are referred to as “ Other Sales ”; Whole Sales, Closure Sales and Other Sales are referred to collectively as “ Entire Interest Sales ”; Entire Interest Sales and Lessor Interest Sales are referred to collectively as “ Asset Sales ”;  and the assets sold as Asset Sales as referred to as “ Sold Assets ”).

(b) “ Sale Cooperation Obligations ” means Genesis shall diligently cooperate with WT and brokers and potential Buyers in connection with Asset Sales and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to support the Asset Sales, which shall include, but not be limited to, (i) with respect to all assets covered by the Existing Master Lease, (x) reasonably assisting potential Buyers (and their brokers and lenders and investors and their respective consultants) with their diligence requests regarding the Existing Master Lease facilities and operations thereat, making management and long-term strategy presentations to them as reasonably requested by WT, making Existing Master Lease facilities and personnel available for site visits by them upon reasonable advance notice and providing documentation and information reasonably requested by them and (y) providing any cooperation and/or documentation reasonably requested in order for WT and/or the Buyer to effectuate a forward or reverse exchange of the asset being sold for other real property of a like-kind in a manner which qualifies for non-recognition of gain or loss under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations applicable thereto, (ii) with respect to Lessor Interest Assets, reasonably and in good faith negotiating and entering into definitive new master lease agreements with the proposed Buyers (“ New Master Leases”) as the new owner/master lessor substantially in the form of the existing Cindat master lease or, if not acceptable to the new owner, another form of lease to be mutually agreed to by Genesis (acting reasonably and in good faith) and the Buyer and (iii) with respect to Entire Interest Sales (including, without limitation, the pending sale of the Whole Sale Assets to Cascade, entering into agreements reasonably requested by WT and/or the Buyers pursuant to which the leasehold position under the Existing Master Lease is terminated or transferred to the Buyer or its designee, all service and ancillary agreements to which Genesis is a party with respect to the assets being sold are terminated and Genesis agrees to continue reasonably cooperating and assisting the new owners and operators during a reasonable transition period after the closing of such sale .  

(c) The economic terms and financial covenants contained in any New Master Lease, and any later modifications or waivers thereof, shall be subject to the prior written approval of WT, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Genesis hereby agrees that the due date for rent payments under any New Master Lease with a proposed Buyer as to which WT has transferred an interest of greater than or equal to 49% of WT’s interest in the Existing Master Lease, either as a change of ownership or otherwise, shall be the 1st day of each month of the term of the New Master Lease if such Buyer requires it in order to close on the transaction.  Regardless of form, the New Master Leases shall be consistent with the following terms: (i) the first year’s rent will be mutually and reasonably agreed among WT, Genesis and the Buyer; (ii) the initial term, renewal terms, renewal rent, rent payment date (subject to the foregoing sentence), and security of the New Master Leases will be no less favorable to Genesis than the Existing Master Lease; (iii) the cap ex requirements will initially be no more than $800/bed/year; and (iv) each New Master Lease may contain reasonable financial covenants as agreed between Genesis and the Buyer, no less favorable to Genesis than those set forth in similar Genesis’ other master leases, taking into account, among other things, the number of beds covered by a lease.

(d) Upon a closing of Asset Sales, the parties will contemporaneously therewith effectuate the Master Lease Modifications.  “ Master Lease Modifications ”  means entering into modifications to the Existing Master Lease to reflect the removal of the Sold Assets from its coverage, as and to the extent that Asset Sales occur, and to reduce the remaining rent applicable going forward under the Existing Master Lease (i.e., with respect to the remaining facilities covered by the Existing Master Lease after the consummation of the Sold Assets) by (i) with respect to Lessor Interest Sales, an amount equal to the net annual rent payable under the New Master Lease with respect to such asset(s), and (ii) with respect to Entire Interest Sales, an amount equal to 9% of (x) the gross proceeds received by WT from such sale, less (y) the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by WT in effectuating any such sales; provided that the foregoing rent reduction shall not apply in respect of the Whole Sale of the Richardson Asset, as the Current Modifications already reflect a reduction agreed upon by the parties in respect of such sale; for the avoidance of doubt, other than as specifically provided in this Section 1(d), nothing in this Agreement shall obligate WT to agree to any reduction in the rent under the Existing Master Lease.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Existing Master Lease or this Agreement, following the completion of all Asset Sales, the Existing Master Lease shall be terminated and any remaining rent under the Existing Master Lease shall be eliminated (it being agreed that the Existing Master Lease shall remain in effect to the extent called for under Section 1(g) below); for the avoidance of doubt, Genesis shall remain obligated to pay in full any unpaid rent that has theretofore accrued. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, WT shall have the right to elect to structure the sale of any or all of the Whole Sale Assets as the sale of only the lessor’s interest therein, and, upon notifying Genesis of any such election, such sale for all purposes hereof (including the Sales Cooperation Obligations and the Master Lease Modifications applicable thereto) shall be and shall be deemed to be a Lessor Interest Sale and not a Whole Sale and shall be subject to the parties entering into a New Master Lease in accordance herewith.

 

(f)   In no event shall the intended or actual sale of assets covered by the Existing Master Lease as set forth above be or be deemed to undermine or derogate from the provisions of Section 1.2 of the Existing Master Lease under which the Existing Master Lease  constitutes one indivisible lease of the entire Leased Property (as defined therein), and the parties hereby confirm and ratify their intention that the provisions of the Existing Master Lease shall at all times be construed, interpreted and applied so as to carry out their mutual objective to create a single indivisible lease of all the Leased Property and, in particular but without limitation, that for purposes of any assumption, rejection or assignment of this Lease under any bankruptcy laws, it is one indivisible and non-severable lease and executory contract dealing with one legal and economic unit which must be assumed, rejected or assigned as a whole with respect to all (and only all) the Leased Property covered hereby.

 

(g) The parties hereby confirm that the provisions of the Existing Master Lease and related agreements with respect to the Option Facilities (a/k/a Meridian 7) and the Sandy River Portfolio (each as defined in the Existing Master Lease) remain in full force and effect. Following completion of all Asset Sales, the parties’ respective rights and obligations under the Existing Master Lease shall remain in effect with respect to the Option Facilities and the Sandy River Portfolio.

 

 

2. Loan Documents.

4


 

 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any Loan Document, from and after the date hereof WT shall have the right to assign all or any of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Loans and the Loan Documents to any subsidiary or controlled affiliate of Welltower Inc. without the consent of Genesis.  Genesis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, as soon as possible, enter into binding agreements to sell assets of Genesis that currently serve as collateral for the Bridge Loan to third-party buyers and/or to obtain mortgage loans from third party lenders, with usual and customary closing dates and no closing conditions other than those which are usual and customary for stand-alone sales and mortgage loans (and with no seller financing or  financing contingency for any sales), sufficient in the aggregate to yield net proceeds  (i.e., after deduction of reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket   expenses incurred by Genesis in connection with obtaining and consummating such agreements) of at least $105 million being paid over by Genesis to WT as set forth herein (collectively, the “ 105 Commitments ”).  In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by each of the 105 Commitments, and simultaneous with WT receiving the net proceeds from any such closing, WT shall release its liens and mortgages on the Bridge Loan collateral that is the subject of the applicable transaction, including equity, to permit the consummation of each such closing.  All net proceeds from the consummation of the 105 Commitments shall be paid to WT at the closings thereunder and shall be applied by WT to partial repayment of the Bridge Loan.  The application of such amounts in partial repayment of the Bridge Loan will be in such amount, order and priority as determined by WT among the loans which comprise the Bridge Loan, if the payment being made is not otherwise part of the proceeds from a refinance or sale of a particular asset secured by a particular loan which comprises the Bridge Loan.  WT agrees to release its liens and mortgages on collateral securing repayment of the then remaining outstanding balance of the Bridge Loan that has not otherwise been released in accordance with the foregoing terms of this Section 2(a), thereby converting the Bridge Loan to an unsecured loan, after all of the following shall have occurred:  (i) WT has received $105 million or more of net proceeds from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the 105 Commitments or from other sources available to Genesis, (ii) Genesis has entered into amendments to the Bridge Loan containing the following covenants and agreements: (1) customary market covenants for a unsecured credit facility of this type and amount for a borrower with Genesis’ financial profile at closing, which covenants shall include, without limitation, those described on Schedule 6 and others to be reasonably agreed by WT and Genesis, and (2) an agreement that the Bridge Loan shall be freely transferable by WT (whether or not to affiliates of WT) and (iii) Genesis has entered into any modifications or amendments to the Bridge Loan determined by WT, in its sole discretion, as necessary to avoid any adverse REIT qualification, status or compliance consequences to WT.  Time of the essence, and if for any reason (x) Genesis does not obtain the 105 Commitments prior to April 1, 2018 or (y) Genesis does timely obtain the 105 Commitments but any one or more of the 105 Commitments thereafter expires by its terms or is terminated for any reason prior to WT having received $105 million in accordance with the terms above, then, in the case of either (x) or (y), automatic increases in the cash component of interest payable under the Bridge Loan as set forth in Section 3(a)[B] of each amended and restated note executed on the date hereof as part of the Bridge Loan Modifications shall apply, and Genesis shall continue to be obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the 105 Commitments and to close the transactions contemplated thereunder as soon as possible.  Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate WT to release its liens and mortgages on the Bridge Loan collateral except as specifically provided in this paragraph 2(a).

(b) Genesis hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to raise by May 8, 2018 at least $200 million in new capital invested in Genesis from third party sources (whether raised in single or multiple tranches) (“ New Capital ”) (such New Capital may be structured in a manner determined by Genesis which may include, without limitation, equity, preferred equity or unsecured mezzanine debt; provided that the dividends or interest thereunder shall be payable ‘in-kind’ at least in the same proportion as the interest is payable ‘in-kind’ under the Term Loan and the New Term Loans) and Genesis hereby agrees that it shall apply the net proceeds (i.e., net of reasonable and customary transaction costs and fees) of such New Capital (whenever received) to the following before any other application thereof: 

 

(1) first, if either (i) a Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing or (ii) the Future Modifications have not occurred and the New Term Loans have not been funded by WT and Omega at the time the net proceeds of the New Capital are distributed, then, to repay the Term Loan as provided in the Term Loan Agreement; if, however, no Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing, the Future Modifications have occurred and the New Term Loans have been funded by WT and Omega at the time the net proceeds of the New Capital are distributed, then, to repay in full the portion of the Term Loan held by WT (which will be approximately $99 million), which payments shall be made in advance of repayment of amounts owing to Omega with respect to the Term Loan, such that all principal payments (voluntary or mandatory) in respect of the Term Loan are first paid to WT in reduction of the principal  balance owed on the portion of the Term Loan held by or otherwise payable to WT;

 

(2) second, to the extent not paid pursuant to subsection (1) above, to repay in full the portion of the Term Loan held by Omega (which will be approximately $66 million) as repayment of Genesis’ obligations to Omega under the Term Loan;

 

(3) third, to repay in full that certain Note, dated as of December 23, 2016, made by Genesis as Issuer in the face amount of $11,659,000 (as amended, restated, supplemented or modified) (having a principal balance of approximately $12.7 million as of the date hereof);

 

(4) fourth, to pay $6.0 million as repayment of that certain Note, dated as of November 1, 2016, made by Genesis as Issuer in the face amount of $51,160,000 (as amended, restated, supplemented or modified) (i.e., at approximately 6.0% of par), and, if no default or breach shall have occurred under this Agreement or under any Transaction Document, WT agrees that the remaining principal balance thereof will be written off by WT (so long as there are sufficient proceeds of the New Capital available to simultaneously pay-off $111 million of the Bridge Loan); and

 

(5) fifth, to pay up to $111 million on account of the Bridge Loan (applied in such order and priority as determined by WT among the loans which comprise the Bridge Loan).

 

Genesis and WT agree that, once WT has been repaid pursuant to Section 2(b)(1) above such that the remaining outstanding balance of the portion of the Term Loan held by WT is less than 50% of the remaining outstanding balance of the portion of the Term Loan held by Omega, Omega (or an entity designated by Omega) will replace WT as the administrative agent under the Term Loan

Agreement.  In the event Genesis has not raised the New Capital by May 8, 2018, Genesis shall continue to be obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the New Capital and to apply the proceeds thereof as set forth herein until such efforts are successful.  “ Trigger Event ” means (a) any Default or Event of Default under Sections 8(b), (c), (g), (h), or (l) of the Term Loan Agreement, (b) a Default or Event of Default under Section 7.13, 7.14 or 7.15 of the Term Loan Agreement, or (c) the acceleration of the Loans under the Term Loan Agreement.  Except as may otherwise be agreed in writing as part of the Future Modifications, all liens and collateral securing the Term Loan shall continue to secure the Term Loan until such time as WT and Omega are each paid in full.

(c) If, (x) the New Capital shall have been raised and applied as required hereunder, (y) the 105 Commitments shall have been obtained and the required payments have been made to WT in accordance herewith, and (z) the portion of the Term Loan held by WT has been repaid in full, the remaining outstanding principal balance of the Bridge Loan is not more than $50 million, and no "Event of Default" under the Transaction Documents is continuing ((x)-(z), collectively, the “Conditions Precedent”), then, upon satisfaction of all Conditions Precedent, Genesis may deliver notice to WT requesting that WT approve a specified amount (not to exceed $50 million) of the outstanding balance of the Bridge Loan be converted into a common equity stake in Genesis (the “$50M Equity Conversion”), such equity to be priced on the same basis as Genesis’ most recent equity raise at that time, and such equity will be pari passu to such most recently raised equity.  WT shall cooperate in completing such $50M Equity Conversion, which shall be conditioned on WT’s determination, in its sole discretion, that such conversion would not result in any adverse REIT qualification, status or compliance consequences to WT.  Genesis acknowledges that the consummation of all the Lessor Interest Sales and WT’s receipt of the net proceeds therefrom will be one of the factors which WT will take into consideration in making such determination.  For the avoidance of doubt, the completion of the $50M Equity Conversion is intended to be a bilateral transaction negotiated by the parties in good faith consistent with the terms outlined in this paragraph (c) and this Agreement is not intended to grant either Genesis or WT the unilateral right to effect the completion of the $50M Equity Conversion. If WT determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot consummate the $50M Equity Conversion due to adverse REIT qualification, status or compliance consequences, WT agrees that the lesser of the outstanding balance of the Bridge Loan and $50 million (the “Conversion Amount”) shall be converted into a loan incurring PIK interest at 2% per annum compounded quarterly, with a term of ten (10) years commencing on the date the Conditions Precedent have been satisfied (the “Mezz Debt Conversion”); provided, however, if WT determines, in its sole discretion, that conversion of some or all of the Conversion Amount into the Mezz Debt Conversion would result in any adverse REIT qualification, status or compliance consequences to WT, then, at the time the Conditions Precedent are satisfied, such portion of the Conversion Amount which cannot be converted into the Mezz Debt Conversion will be immediately written off by WT and the balance of the Conversion Amount will be converted into the Mezz Debt Conversion.

(d) Upon satisfaction of the Warrant Conditions, Genesis shall issue to TRS Holdco, a warrant (the “ WT   Warrant ”) to purchase shares of Genesis’ Class A common stock issued by Genesis, containing customary terms and conditions for an instrument of this type and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to both Genesis and WT, pursuant to which Genesis shall grant the right to the holder of the WT Warrant to purchase 900,000 shares (subject to anti-dilution provisions) of Genesis’ Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share at an exercise price equal to the greater of (i) $1.00 per share or (ii) if the Future Modifications have occurred,

7


 

the closing price of Genesis Class A common stock on the trading day that the Future Modifications are effective, which WT Warrant shall be exercisable during the period commencing 6 months after issuance and ending on 5 years after issuance.  “ Warrant Conditions ” means all of the following shall be true at the time in question:  (i) the complete repayment or conversion to equity or forgiveness of the Bridge Loans, as the case may be; (ii) the successful consummation of Asset Sales such that the rent payable by Genesis to WT under the Master Lease is less than $15 million; (iii) the repayment in full of any remaining amounts owed by Genesis to Omega; (iv) the price of a share of Genesis’ Class A common stock exceeds, or at any time prior to the satisfaction of all other conditions has exceeded, $4 and (v) at least 25% of the Class C shares of Genesis, issued and outstanding as of the execution of this Agreement, have converted their shares into shares of Class A common stock. Upon the making of the New Term Loans, Genesis shall issue to Omega or an affiliate thereof, a warrant (the “ Omega   Warrant ”) to purchase shares of Genesis’ Class A common stock issued by Genesis, containing customary terms and conditions for an instrument of this type and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to both Genesis and Omega, pursuant to which Genesis shall grant the right to the holder of the Omega Warrant to purchase 600,000 shares (subject to anti-dilution provisions and to such reduction in the amount of shares as Omega may determine in its sole discretion is necessary or appropriate to maintain compliance with law and regulation, including REIT tax regulations) of Genesis’ Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share at an exercise price equal to the greater of (i) $1.00 per share or (ii) if the Future Modifications have occurred, the closing price of Genesis Class A common stock on the trading day that the Future Modifications are effective, which Omega Warrant shall be exercisable during the period commencing 6 months after issuance and ending on 5 years after issuance.

(e) Subject to the satisfaction of the Term Loan Amendment Conditions (as defined below) no later than March 31, 2018, (A) WT and Omega agree that they will enter into modifications to the Term Loan Agreement and related loan documents that will provide Genesis with the ability to borrow an additional $40 million of new term loans under the Term Loan Agreement (the “ New Term Loans ”) and will include other changes as may be reasonably necessary to accommodate the refinancing of the Cap One ABL Facility on substantially the terms set forth in the MidCap Commitment Letter (as defined below) (the “ Term Loan Amendment ”), (B) WT commits to provide an aggregate amount of $24 million of the New Term Loans to Genesis and (C) Omega commits to provide an aggregate amount equal to $16 million of the New Term Loans.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Genesis, WT and Omega agree that they will promptly take such actions as are reasonably necessary to amend the Term Loan Agreement to reflect the modifications required to effectuate the obligation to seek New Capital and the mandatory pre-payment provisions set forth in Section 2(b) (regardless of whether the Term Loan Amendment Conditions are satisfied).

Term Loan Amendment Conditions ” means (i) the loans and other obligations under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2015 (as amended, restated, supplemented or modified, “ Cap One ABL Facility ”), by and among, Genesis, the lenders party thereto, Healthcare Financial Solutions, LLC, as administrative agent, and the other parties thereto have been either (x) amended or otherwise restructured such that all outstanding defaults thereunder have been satisfied or permanently waived and the terms of any amendment or restructured loans and other obligations, and the agreements related to the same, are reasonably acceptable to WT and Omega, or (y) fully refinanced in a manner, as reasonably determined by WT and Omega, substantially consistent with the terms and conditions set forth in that certain Commitment Letter, dated as of February 2, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented or

8


 

modified, the “ MidCap Commitment Letter ”), between MidCap Financial Trust and Genesis or on such other terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to WT and Omega, (ii) there are no outstanding defaults (including any disputed default that is subject to arbitration under Section 3(d)(iii) of this Agreement) by Genesis under this Agreement or the Term Loan Agreement (whether or not such defaults have become Omnibus Events of Default under this Agreement or Events of Default under the Term Loan Agreement), (iii) there are no Events of Default under any of the other Transaction Documents, and there are no outstanding material defaults by Genesis under the Material Master Leases  or Material Indebtedness (each, as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) or any agreement with MidCap Financial Trust, in each case, that is not subject to an irrevocable waiver or other similar agreement not to enforce any such contractual obligations, (iv) all required third party consents in connection with the Term Loan Amendment and the New Term Loans have been obtained by Genesis, and (v) the Term Loan Amendment is in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Genesis, Omega and WT.

(a) Genesis acknowledges and agrees and confirms that as of the date indicated thereof (i) the principal balance of each of the Loans is as set forth on Schedule 3 attached hereto, and that all of such principal amounts, plus all accrued and accruing interest and all fees, costs, expenses and other amounts now or hereafter payable by Genesis under the Loan Documents, are unconditionally owing by Genesis, all without offset, defense or counterclaim of any kind, nature or description whatsoever, (ii) WT has, and shall continue to have, valid and enforceable, perfected and continuing Liens upon and security interests in the collateral granted by Genesis to WT to the extent (and having the priority) required by the Loan Documents and (iii) to Genesis' knowledge, WT is not in breach or default under any of its obligations under the Transaction Documents.

 

(b) WT agrees that it will, from the date hereof until the earlier of an Omnibus Event of Default (as defined in Section 3(d) below) or March 31, 2018 (the “ Forbearance Period ”), not exercise any rights or remedies with respect to (a) any “Default” or “Event of Default” or other breach under the Existing Master Lease which relates to financial covenants thereunder or which is a cross-default thereunder by virtue of financial covenants contained in other agreements of Genesis as to which the counterparty has not declared a default or has agreed to forbear from the exercise of rights and remedies, (b) any “Default” or “Event of Default” or other breach under the Loan Documents which relates to financial covenants thereunder or which is a cross-default thereunder by virtue of financial covenants contained in other agreements of Genesis as to which the counterparty has not declared a default or has agreed to forbear from the exercise of rights and remedies, and (c) the failure to pay any default rent, default interest, and late fees, as applicable, under the Existing Master Lease and the Loan Document which accrue through the Forbearance Period.  Neither Genesis Healthcare, Inc. nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (whether or not party to the Transaction Documents) may enter into any waiver, forbearance, agreement not to enforce or similar agreement with any person or entity with respect to obligations of Genesis Healthcare, Inc. or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (whether or not party to the Transaction Documents) with respect to a Material Master Lease or Material Indebtedness (each, as defined in the Term Loan Agreement), any agreement with MidCap Financial Trust or the Revolving Loan (as defined in the Existing Master Lease) without providing at least 5 business days’ prior notice to WT.  WT further agrees that, until February 22, 2018, no cash payments of interest will be due and payable currently under the Loan Documents, and all such interest amounts will instead accrue and be added to principal (with interest accruing thereon at the same rates as interest otherwise

9


 

accrues under the relevant Loan Document for deferred interest amounts); subsequent to February 22, 2018, cash payments of interest will be due and payable as provided in the Loan Documents.

 

(c) Each of Genesis and WT hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that (i) each of the Transaction Documents has been duly executed and delivered to the other party and each is in full force and effect as of the date hereof and is hereby ratified and confirmed, (ii) the agreements and obligations of such party contained in the Transaction Documents and in this Agreement constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such party, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent limited by general principals of equity and by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, and (iii) such party is and shall be entitled to all of the rights, remedies and benefits provided for in the Transaction Documents and under applicable law.

 

(d) An “ Omnibus Event of Default ” means (i) any default or breach by Genesis of its obligations under this Agreement (except, in the case of Sections 1(b), 2(a) or 2(b), as provided in subsection (iii) below) which breach or default is not cured (1) in the case of payment defaults within two (2) business days after receipt of written notice thereof from WT and (2) in the case of all other defaults or breaches, within ten (10) business days after receipt of written notice thereof from WT, or any failure to reach agreement on new financial covenants under the Existing Master Lease by March 31, 2018 (in the case of the failure to reach agreement on new financial covenants only, without notice, grace or cure period); (ii) an Event of Default under Sections 8(b), (c), (g), (h), or (l) of the Term Loan Agreement or the acceleration of the Loans under the Term Loan Agreement; or (iii) any default or breach by Genesis of its obligations under Sections 1(b), 2(a) or 2(b), provided, however , that any such default or breach for Genesis’ failure to diligently cooperate or use commercially reasonable efforts, as those terms are used in such Sections, shall require a determination in an Arbitration Proceeding (as defined below) that Genesis has failed to satisfy such obligations to diligently cooperate or use commercially reasonable efforts, and, provided, further , that the pendency of any such Arbitration Proceeding shall not relieve either Genesis or WT of its obligations or agreements under the applicable Section in dispute..  The existence of an Omnibus Event of Default (whether occurring during or after the Forbearance Period) shall constitute an "Event of Default" under each of the Transaction Documents as if it had been expressly set forth as an “Event of Default” thereunder.  “ Arbitration Proceeding ” means an arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules.  Genesis and WT agree that, in any Arbitration Proceeding, the number of arbitrators shall be three, the place of arbitration shall be New York, New York, the parties recognize that time is of the essence and shall pursue an expedited arbitration schedule, Delaware law shall apply, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any New York State court or federal court sitting in the City, County and State of New York having jurisdiction thereof.

 

(e) An "Event of Default" by Genesis under any of the Transaction Documents shall, without any notice or grace or cure period, entitle WT immediately to exercise all rights and remedies available to WT upon an Omnibus Event of Default under this Agreement, as if an Event of Default under any one of the Transaction Documents was expressly set forth in this Agreement as an Omnibus Event of Default hereunder.  This Section 3(e) will not entitle WT to declare a default or breach under any Transaction Document solely due to a default or breach under any other Transaction Document if WT would not have been entitled to declare such a default or breach

10


 

in the absence of this Section 3(e).  Solely for the purpose of this Section 3(e), this Agreement is not a Transaction Document.

(f) Without limiting any of the reporting requirements under the Transaction Documents, Genesis shall, and shall cause the officers, directors, employees and advisors to Genesis, to cooperate fully with WT and its designees in furnishing information reasonably available to Genesis as and when reasonably requested by WT or its designees regarding Genesis’ financial condition, business, operations and assets.
