PART I
Item 1.    Business
Fluor Corporation was incorporated in Delaware in September, 2000. However, through our predecessors, we have been in business for over a century.
Our common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "FLR".
Fluor Corporation is a holding company that owns a number of subsidiaries, as well as interests in joint ventures. Acting through these entities, we are one of the largest professional services firms providing engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication and modularization, operations, maintenance and asset integrity, as well as project management services, on a global basis. We provide these services to our clients in a diverse set of industries worldwide including oil and gas, chemicals and petrochemicals, mining and metals, infrastructure, life sciences, advanced manufacturing and advanced technologies. We are also a service provider to the U.S. federal government and governments abroad; and, we perform operations, maintenance and asset integrity activities globally for major industrial clients.
At December 31, 2020, we operated our business through six principal segments. The six segments were: Energy & Chemicals; Mining & Industrial; Infrastructure & Power; Government; Diversified Services; and Other. Fluor Constructors International, Inc., which is organized and operates separately from the rest of our business, provides unionized management and construction services in the United States and Canada, both independently and as a subcontractor on projects in each of our segments.
In January 2021, we introduced our new strategy, "Building a Better Future" during a Strategy Day event with investors. At our Strategy Day, we outlined four strategic priorities for driving value creation for our shareholders:
Drive growth across our portfolio, by growing markets outside of the traditional oil and gas sector, including energy transition, advanced technology and life sciences, high-demand metals, infrastructure and mission solutions;
Pursue contracts with fair and balanced commercial terms that reward value, with a bias towards reimbursable contracts;
Reinforce financial discipline, maintaining a solid balance sheet by generating predictable cash flow and earnings; and
Foster a high-performance culture with purpose, by advancing our diversity, equity and inclusion efforts and promoting social progress and sustainability.
Competitive Strengths
As a world-class provider of our services, we believe that we bring capital efficient business solutions that combine excellence in execution, safety, cost containment and experience to our clients. In that regard, we believe that our business strengths and global positioning provide us with significant competitive advantages:
Safety. One of our core values is our constant focus on safety. Maintaining a safe and secure workplace is a key business driver for us and our clients. In our experience, whether in an office or at a jobsite, a safe environment decreases risks, assures a proper environment for all workers, enhances morale, improves productivity, reduces project cost and generally improves client relations. We believe that our commitment to safety is one of our most distinguishing features.
Global Execution Platform. As one of the larger publicly-traded EPC companies, we have a global footprint with employees situated throughout the world. Our global presence allows us to build local relationships to capitalize on opportunities near these locations. We believe it also allows us to mobilize quickly to project sites around the world and to draw on our local knowledge and talent pools. We continue to form strategic alliances with local partners, leverage our supply chain expertise and emphasize local training programs. We also provide services from our distributed execution centers on a cost-efficient basis.
Excellence in Execution. We believe that our ability to execute, maintain and manage complex projects, often in geographically challenging locations, gives us a distinct competitive advantage. We strive to complete our projects meeting or exceeding all client specifications. We have continued to shift toward data-driven execution, which we expect will enhance our ability to meet our clients' needs.
Market Diversity. We serve multiple markets across a broad spectrum of industries around the globe. We feel that our market diversity helps to mitigate the impact of the cyclicality in the markets we serve. Just as important, our concentrated
3

attention on market diversification should allow us to achieve more consistent growth and deliver solid financial returns. We believe that maintaining a good mixture within our entire business portfolio permits us to both focus on our more stable business markets and to capitalize on cyclical markets when the timing is appropriate.
Client Relationships. We actively pursue relationships with new clients while also building on our long-term relationships with existing clients. We believe that long-term relationships with existing clients serve us well by allowing us to better understand and be more responsive to their requirements. Regardless of whether our clients are new or have been with us for many decades, our ability to successfully foster relationships is a key strength.
Risk Management. In combination with our new pursuit criteria and guidelines we believe we have enhanced our ability to assess, mitigate and manage project risk, especially in difficult locations or circumstances. We have an experienced management team, and utilize a systematic and disciplined approach towards identifying, assessing and managing risks. We believe that our risk management approach helps us control costs and meet clients' schedules.
General Operations
Our services fall into six broad categories (outlined below). Our services can range from basic consulting activities, often at the early stages of a project, to complete design-build, operations and maintenance contracts.
In engineering and design, we develop solutions to address our clients’ most complex problems. Our engineering services range from traditional engineering disciplines such as piping, mechanical, electrical, control systems, civil, structural and architectural to advanced engineering specialties including process engineering, chemical engineering, simulation, integrated automation processes and interactive 3-D modeling. Through our design solutions, we can provide clients with varied offerings which can include front-end engineering, conceptual design, estimating, feasibility studies, permitting, process simulation, technology and licensing evaluation, scope definition and siting.
Our procurement offerings include procurement and supply chain solutions aimed at improving product quality and performance while also reducing project cost and schedule. Our clients draw upon our global sourcing and supply expertise, global purchasing power, technical knowledge, processes, systems and experienced global resources. Our procurement activities include strategic sourcing, material management, contracts management, buying, expediting, supplier quality inspection and logistics.
In construction, we mobilize, execute, commission and demobilize projects on a self-perform or subcontracted basis. Generally, we are responsible for the completion of a project, often in difficult locations and under challenging circumstances. We are frequently designated as a program manager, and serve as such without regard to whether the client has facilities in multiple locations, complex phases in a single project location, or a large-scale investment in a facility.
We also provide a variety of fabrication and modularization services, including integrated engineering and modular fabrication and assembly, as well as modular construction and asset support services to clients around the globe from our joint venture yards. By operating our own fabrication yards in key regions of the world, our off-site fabrication solutions can help our clients achieve cost and schedule savings by reducing on-site craft needs and shifting work to inherently safer and more controlled work environments.
We offer operations, maintenance and asset integrity services intended to improve the performance and extend the life of our clients’ facilities. This may include the global delivery of total maintenance services, facility management, plant readiness, commissioning, start-up and maintenance technology, small capital projects, and turnaround and outage services. Among other things, we can provide key management, staffing and management skills to clients on-site at their facilities. These activities also include routine and outage/turnaround maintenance services, general maintenance and asset management, emissions reduction technologies and services, and restorative, repair, predictive and prevention services.
Project management involves managing all aspects of the effort to deliver projects on schedule and within budget, and is critical on every project. We are often hired as the overall program manager on large complex projects where various contractors and subcontractors are involved and multiple activities need to be integrated to ensure the success of the overall project. Our services include logistics, development of project execution plans, detailed schedules, cost forecasts, progress tracking and reporting, and the integration of EPC efforts. Project management is accountable to the client to deliver the safety, functionality and financial performance requirements of the project.

Business Segments (as of December 31, 2020)
Energy & Chemicals
Our Energy & Chemicals segment focuses on opportunities in the upstream, midstream, downstream, chemical, petrochemical, offshore and onshore oil and gas production, LNG and pipeline markets. We have long served a broad spectrum of industries offering a full range of design, engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication and project management services. While we perform projects that range greatly in size and scope, we believe that one of our distinguishing features is that we are one of the few companies that have the global strength and experience to perform extremely large projects in difficult locations. As the locations of large scale energy and chemicals projects have become more challenging geographically, geopolitically or otherwise, we believe that clients will continue to look to us based upon our size, strength, global reach, experience and track record to manage their complex projects.
With each specific project, our role can vary. We may be involved in providing front-end engineering, program management and final design services, construction management services, self-perform construction, or oversight of other contractors, and we may also assume responsibility for the procurement of materials, equipment and subcontractors. We have the capacity to design, fabricate and construct new facilities, upgrade, modernize and expand existing facilities, and rebuild facilities following fires and explosions. We also provide consulting services ranging from feasibility studies to process assessments to project finance structuring and studies.
In the upstream sector, our clients need to develop additional and new sources of supply. Our typical projects in the upstream sector revolve around the production, processing and transporting of oil and gas resources, including the development of infrastructure associated with major new fields and pipelines. We are also involved in offshore production facilities and in conventional and unconventional gas projects in various geographic locations.
In the downstream sector, our clients have been modernizing and modifying existing refineries to increase capacity, improve margins and improve environmental performance. We continue to play a key role in each of these markets. We are also focused on sustainable markets, such as clean fuels, green energy and carbon sequestration, where an increasing number of clients and countries are implementing stronger environmental standards and goals.
We have been very active for several decades in the chemicals and petrochemicals market, with major projects involving the expansion of ethylene-based derivatives as well as specialty chemicals. The most active markets have been in the United States, Middle East and Asia, where there is significant demand for chemical products.
Mining & Industrial
The Mining & Industrial segment provides design, engineering, procurement, construction and project management services to the mining and metals, life sciences, advanced manufacturing and advanced technologies sectors.
In mining and metals, we provide a full range of services to our clients who produce a variety of commodities, including bauxite, copper, gold, iron ore, diamond, nickel, alumina, aluminum and phosphates. Our services include conceptual and feasibility studies through detailed engineering, design, procurement, construction, commissioning and startup support. Many of these opportunities are being developed in remote and logistically challenging environments, such as the Andes Mountains, Western Australia and Africa. We believe we are one of the few companies with the size, regional presence and experience to execute large scale mining and metals projects in these difficult and remote locations.
For the advanced manufacturing and technologies market, we provide design, engineering, procurement, construction and construction management services to a wide variety of industries on a global basis. We specialize in designing projects that incorporate lean manufacturing concepts while also satisfying client sustainability goals. Our experience spans a wide variety of market segments ranging from traditional manufacturing to advanced technology projects, such as data centers.
In life sciences, we provide design, engineering, procurement, construction and construction management services to the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. We also specialize in providing validation and commissioning services where we not only bring new facilities into production, but we also keep existing facilities operating. We believe the ability to complete projects on a large scale basis, especially in a business where time to market is critical, enables us to better serve our clients and is a key competitive advantage.
Infrastructure & Power
The Infrastructure & Power segment provides design, engineering, procurement, construction and project management services to the infrastructure sector.
5

Table of Contents
We are an industry leader in developing infrastructure projects such as roads, highways, bridges and rail for governments, with particular interest in large, complex projects. We provide a broad range of services including consulting, design, planning, financial structuring, engineering and construction. We also provide long-term operation and maintenance services for transit and highway projects. Our projects may involve the use of public/private partnerships, which allow us to develop and finance deals in concert with public entities for projects such as toll roads and rail lines that would not have otherwise been undertaken with public funding alone. The replacement and expansion of aging infrastructure in North America continues to drive project opportunities.
Historically, we have also offered a full range of services including engineering, procurement, construction, program management, startup and commissioning and technical services to utilities, independent power producers, original equipment manufacturers and other third parties.
Government
The Government segment provides engineering and construction services, logistics and life-support, as well as contingency operations support, to the defense sector. We support military logistical and infrastructure needs around the world, including life-support, engineering, procurement, construction and logistical augmentation services to the U.S. military and coalition forces in various international locations. This segment also provides full life-cycle infrastructure support to the U.S. intelligence community globally.
The Government segment also provides support to the U.S. Department of Energy and National Nuclear Security Administration that includes management, mission operations, environmental remediation, decommissioning, engineering and construction services that address the many environmental and regulatory challenges associated with legacy and operational nuclear sites.
We also provide support to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. This includes supporting the U.S. government’s rapid response capabilities to address security issues and disaster relief, the latter primarily through our long-standing relationship with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and in support of the Army Corps of Engineers.
Diversified Services
The Diversified Services segment provides a wide array of asset maintenance, asset integrity and staffing services. These services are provided around the world during both the project delivery phase as well as to new or existing client production assets.
Through our subsidiary, Stork, we provide asset maintenance and asset integrity services to the oil and gas, chemicals, life sciences, power, mining and metals, consumer products and manufacturing industries. We focus on asset management solutions, as well as providing asset services in areas such as electrical, instrumentation, mechanical and piping. We also provide asset integrity services, including new asset readiness solutions, inspection of existing assets, and asset turnaround and modification solutions. This business, driven by our clients' annual operating expenditures, often benefits from large projects that originate in another of our segments, which can lead to long-term operations or maintenance opportunities. Our long-term maintenance contracts can also lead to larger capital projects for our other business segments when those needs arise. Our goal is to help clients improve the performance of their assets, including late-life management solutions. In the first quarter of 2021, we announced a plan to sell Stork, which we expect will be reported as a discontinued operation beginning with the first quarter of 2021.
The segment's staffing services are provided through TRS Staffing Solutions®. TRS is a global enterprise of staffing specialists that provides the company and third party clients with technical, professional and craft resources either on a contract or permanent placement basis.
Other
Our Other segment includes the financial information for NuScale, as well as two lump-sum projects for which the U.S. government is either the client or ultimate client.
NuScale, a small modular nuclear reactor (“SMR”) technology company, is a leader in the development of light water, passively safe SMRs, which we believe will provide us with significant future project opportunities. NuScale received final design certification by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission in August 2020.

Discontinued Operations
In the third quarter of 2019, we implemented a number of strategic initiatives and organizational changes to strengthen our financial position and improve operational performance. Among those initiatives, we committed to a plan to sell substantially all of our AMECO business, which is reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
AMECO provides integrated construction equipment, tool, scaffolding and fleet service solutions to the company and third party clients in a focused number of locations around the world for construction projects and client production assets.
Business Segments (as of January 1, 2021)
At December 31, 2020, we operated our business through six principal business segments described above. In the first quarter of 2021, we announced an updated organizational and reporting structure. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, we will operate through three business segments: Energy Solutions, Urban Solutions and Mission Solutions. Energy Solutions will focus on energy transition, chemicals and traditional oil and gas opportunities. Urban Solutions will focus on mining, metals, advanced technologies, manufacturing, life sciences, infrastructure and our professional staffing services. Mission Solutions will focus on delivering solutions to federal agencies across the U.S. government and to select international opportunities.
Other Matters
Backlog
Backlog represents the total amount of revenue we expect to record in the future based upon contracts that have been awarded to us. Backlog is stated in terms of gross revenues and may include significant estimated amounts of third-party, subcontracted and pass-through costs.
Backlog in the engineering and construction industry is a measure of the value of work to be performed on contracts already awarded and those in progress.

Although backlog reflects business that we consider to be firm, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. Backlog is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate. The terms and conditions of some contracts include elements of both lump-sum and reimbursable contracts. Also, certain contracts may be converted from reimbursable to lump-sum. Due to additional factors outside of our control, such as changes in project schedules, we cannot accurately predict the exact timing that our December 31, 2020 backlog will be earned as revenue. Accordingly, backlog is not necessarily indicative of future earnings or revenues and no assurances can be provided that we will ultimately realize revenue on our backlog.
The following table sets forth our changes in consolidated backlog:

(1)Adjustments and cancellations during 2019 included the cancellation of two infrastructure projects as well as the suspension of certain contracts associated with our joint venture in Mexico.
In 2021, we expect to perform approximately 50% of our total backlog reported as of December 31, 2020, which is in line with the last three years.
Types of Contracts
While the basic terms and conditions of the contracts that we perform may vary considerably, we typically perform our work under two types of contracts: (a) reimbursable contracts and (b) lump-sum or guaranteed maximum contracts. In some markets, we are seeing hybrid contracts containing both lump-sum and reimbursable elements. As of December 31, 2020, the following table summarizes contract type within our ending backlog:
  December 31, 2020
  (in millions) (percentage)
Reimbursable $ 11,621  45  %
Lump-Sum and Guaranteed Maximum 13,948  55  %

In accordance with industry practice, most of our contracts are subject to termination at the discretion of our client. In such situations, our contracts typically provide for the payment of fees earned through the date of termination and the reimbursement of costs incurred including demobilization costs.
Under reimbursable contracts, the client reimburses us based upon negotiated rates and pays us a pre-determined fee, or a fee based upon a percentage of the cost incurred in completing the project. Our profit may be in the form of a fee, a simple markup applied to labor cost incurred in performing the contract, or a combination of the two. The fee element may also vary. The fee may be an incentive fee based upon achieving certain performance factors, milestones or targets; it may be a fixed amount in the contract; or it may be based upon a percentage of the cost incurred. In some cases, reimbursable contracts may be converted into lump-sum contracts.
Our Government segment, primarily acting as a prime contractor or a major subcontractor for a number of government programs, generally performs its services under reimbursable contracts subject to applicable statutes and regulations. In many cases, these contracts include incentive fee arrangements. The programs may span many years and may be implemented by awards under multiple contracts. Some of our government contracts are known as indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (“IDIQ”) agreements. Under these arrangements, we work closely with the government to define the scope and amount of work required based upon an estimate of the maximum amount that the government desires to spend. While the scope is often not initially fully defined or does not require any specific amount of work, once the project scope is determined, additional work may be awarded to us without the need for further competitive bidding.
Under lump-sum contracts, we typically bid based upon specifications provided by the client. This type of contracting presents risks because it requires us to predetermine the work to be performed, the project execution schedule and all costs

associated with the work. Another type of lump-sum contract is a negotiated fixed-price contract, under which we are selected as contractor first, and then we negotiate price with the client. Negotiated fixed-price contracts frequently occur in single-responsibility arrangements where we perform some of the work before negotiating the total price for the project. Another type of lump-sum contract is a unit price contract under which we are paid a set amount for every “unit” of work performed. If we perform well under these types of contracts, we can benefit from cost savings. However, if the project does not proceed as originally planned, we may not be able to recover cost overruns except in certain situations.
Guaranteed maximum price contracts are reimbursable contracts except that the total fee plus the total cost cannot exceed an agreed upon guaranteed maximum price. We can be responsible for some or all of the total cost of the project if the cost exceeds the guaranteed maximum price. Where the total cost is less than the negotiated guaranteed maximum price, we may receive the benefit of the cost savings based upon a negotiated agreement with the client.
Some of our contracts, regardless of type, may operate under joint ventures or other teaming arrangements. Typically, we enter into these arrangements with reputable companies with whom we have worked previously. These arrangements are generally made to strengthen our market position or technical skills, or where the size, scale or location of the project directs the use of such arrangements.
Competition
We are one of the world’s larger providers of engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication and modularization, operations, maintenance and asset integrity, and project management services. The markets served by our business are highly competitive and, for the most part, require substantial resources and highly skilled and experienced technical personnel. A large number of companies compete against us, including U.S.-based companies such as AECOM, Bechtel Group, Inc., EMCOR Group, Inc., Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc., KBR, Inc., Kiewit Corporation, Granite Construction, Inc. and Quanta Services, Inc., and international-based companies such as ACS Actividades de Construccion y Servicios, Balfour Beatty plc, Chiyoda Corporation, Hyundai Engineering & Construction Company, Ltd., JGC Corporation, McDermott International, Inc., Petrofac Limited, SNC-Lavalin Group, Inc., Samsung Engineering, Stantec Inc., TechnipFMC plc, Wood Group plc, and WorleyParsons Limited.
Competition for our Energy & Chemicals, Mining & Industrial and Infrastructure & Power segments is based on an ability to provide the design, engineering, planning, management and project execution skills required to complete complex projects in a safe, timely and cost-efficient manner. We believe our engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction business derives its competitive strength from our diversity, excellence in execution, reputation for quality, technology, cost-effectiveness, worldwide procurement capability, project management expertise, geographic coverage, ability to meet client requirements by performing construction on either a union or an open shop basis, ability to execute complex projects of varying sizes, strong safety record and lengthy experience with a wide range of services and technologies.
The various markets served by the Diversified Services segment, while having some similarities to other segments, tend also to have discrete issues impacting individual business lines. Each of the markets we serve has a large number of competing companies. In the operations and maintenance markets, barriers to entry are both financially and logistically low, resulting in a fragmented industry with no single company being dominant. Competition in those markets is generally driven by reputation, price and the capacity to perform. Temporary staffing is a highly fragmented market with over 1,000 companies competing globally. The key competitive factors in this business line are price, service, quality, client relationships, breadth of service and the ability to identify and retain qualified personnel and geographic coverage.
In the Government segment, key competitive factors are primarily centered on performance, reputation and the ability to provide the design, engineering, planning, management and project execution skills required to complete complex projects in a safe, timely, cost-efficient and compliant manner.
The AMECO business, which operates in numerous markets, is highly fragmented and very competitive, with a large number of competitors mostly operating in specific geographic areas. The competition in the equipment business for larger capital project services is more narrow and limited to only those capable of providing comprehensive equipment, tool and management services.
Raw Materials
The principal products we use in our business include structural steel, metal plate, concrete, cable and various electrical and mechanical components. These products and components are subject to raw material (aluminum, copper, nickel, iron ore, etc.) availability and pricing fluctuations, which we monitor on a regular basis. We have access to numerous global supply sources, and we do not foresee any unavailability of these items that would have a material adverse effect on our business in the near term. However, the availability of these products, components and raw materials may vary significantly from year to year due to various factors including client demand, producer capacity, market conditions and specific material shortages.

Compliance with Government Regulations, Including Environmental, Safety and Health Matters
We provide services at sites throughout the world. Work at some of these sites involves activities related to nuclear facilities, hazardous waste, hydrocarbon production, distribution and transport, the military and infrastructure. Some of our work can be performed adjacent to environmentally sensitive locations such as wetlands, lakes and rivers. We also contract with governments to remediate hazardous materials, including chemical agents and weapons, as well as to decontaminate and decommission nuclear sites. These activities can require us to manage, handle, remove, treat, transport and dispose of toxic, radioactive or hazardous substances, and are subject to many environmental, health and safety laws and regulations.
We believe that we are generally compliant with all environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. We further believe that any accruals with respect to future environmental costs are adequate and that any future costs will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. Some factors, however, could result in additional expenditures or the provision of additional accruals in expectation of such expenditures. These include the imposition of more stringent requirements under environmental laws or regulations, new developments or changes regarding site cleanup costs or the allocation of such costs among potentially responsible parties, or a determination that we are potentially responsible for the release of hazardous substances at sites other than those currently identified.
Human Capital Management
We promote a high performance culture with purpose and foster a diverse and inclusive workplace as a business imperative because we consider people to be our single greatest asset. A high performance culture, where everyone is treated fairly and respectfully and has equal access to opportunities based on capabilities and performance, regardless of background, raises both the individual and collective performance of our company. Our culture drives employee engagement, productivity and a sustainable competitive advantage.
The following summarizes our human capital information as of December 31, 2020:
  Number of
Employees
Salaried Employees 24,203 
Craft and Hourly Employees 16,514 
TRS Agency 3,000 
Total 43,717 
The number of craft and hourly employees can vary in relation to the number, size and phase of execution of our projects. We have employees in the following regions:
Region % of Global Workforce
North America 36  %
Europe, Africa and Middle East 27  %
Central and South America 25  %
Asia Pacific (includes Australia) 12  %
Health and Safety
Safety is one of our core values. We are committed to taking care of our employees and preventing injuries in our offices and project locations. Our robust programs and procedures help us mitigate the hazards inherent in the work we do. We are committed to fostering a caring, preventative culture founded on proactive action by engaged employees. We call this Safer TogetherSM. Our 2020 safety performance resulted in a total case incident rate of 0.38 (calculated in accordance with OSHA record keeping requirements), outperforming our goal of less than 0.40 and well below the comparable industry benchmarks. From 2019 to 2020, we also experienced reductions in the number of work-related life-altering injuries, lost time injuries and injuries requiring medical treatment or work restriction.
In response to COVID-19, we implemented a number of measures to protect the well-being of our employees and mitigate COVID-19 transmission within our offices and on our projects. We established a global COVID-19 task force in January 2020 and implemented actions to empower remote working, restrict non-essential business travel, enhance sanitation at our offices and project sites, and other return-to-work measures. We have an employee assistance program to support employee well-being with a focus on mental health. We also created a Workplace Flexibility global task force to define the workplace of the future.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
We are committed to advancing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion ("DE&I"). We believe that every voice matters, and we value DE&I at every level. We embrace different ideas, perspectives and backgrounds. We listen actively, respect one another and foster an environment with a deep sense of pride and belonging. We are focused on four key impact pillars to advance DE&I:
Champion an inclusive culture;
Recruit, develop and retain talent;
Enhance employee experience; and
Improve social progress and impact.
We engage and partner with select organizations that represent and support gender, racial and ethnic diversity in the engineering profession, and we work with a variety of university student associations to reach targeted populations. We extend our job postings to the appropriate state workforce agencies as well as a syndicated network of partner sites, in order to reach a diverse pool of candidates.
Development Opportunities
One of our top priorities is to provide ongoing training and development for our employees through multiple venues, including Fluor University, our online learning platform. Employees can select from among a wide variety of self-paced, online training courses and have options to sign up for location-specific, instructor-led and virtual courses. Topics range from discipline-specific and targeted technical learning to general knowledge topics, such as leadership, business acumen, communication and inclusive management. In 2020, our employees earned more than 98,000 credit hours through Fluor University.
We have also developed several programs to help employees advance their careers, including Fluor Fellows for our technical experts and Mentoring Circles. In addition, we currently have three employee resource groups: Growing Representation & Opportunity for Women ("GROW"), Graduates Advancing to Professionalism ("GAP") and Emerging Leaders Group ("ELG").
Community Responsibility
Part of building a high-performance culture with purpose is offering employees robust and enriching opportunities to help build a better future through volunteerism and philanthropy. For more than 40 years, our employee volunteer program, Fluor Cares, has given employees a conduit for giving back to the communities where we live and work. In 2020, employees volunteered more than 24,000 hours to charitable organizations and causes. Additionally, employees pledged $3.6 million, which included a 25 percent company match, through our North America employee giving campaign.
We remained true to our legacy of giving back even as COVID-19 continued to impact lives and communities in far-reaching and profound ways. Our employees continued to exhibit compassion and generosity for those affected by the virus. Local community relations teams directed financial resources to the most significant COVID-19 relief efforts in their local communities with contributions exceeding $0.7 million to local COVID-19 relief funds organized by our community partners in support of meal service charities, critical human needs and schools.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors
We operate in a complex and rapidly changing global environment that involves numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and stock price. The risks described below highlight some of the factors that have affected and could affect us in the future. We may also be affected by unknown risks or risks that we currently think are immaterial. If any such events actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and stock price could be materially adversely affected.
Summary Risk Factors
The following summarizes the risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operation and stock price. You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of each risk factor contained below.
Risks Related to our Operations
COVID-19 has had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our business operations, results of operations and financial position.
We are vulnerable to the cyclical nature of the markets we serve.
Our revenue and earnings are largely dependent on the award of new contracts, which is driven by our clients.
The nature of our contracts, particularly our lump-sum contracts, subject us to risks associated with delays and cost overruns, which may not be recoverable and may result in reduced profits or losses that could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Intense competition in the global EPC industry can reduce our revenue and profits.
The success of our use of teaming arrangements and joint ventures depends on the satisfactory performance by our venture partners over whom we may have little or no control, and the failure of those partners to perform their obligations could impose additional obligations on us that could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Cybersecurity breaches of our systems and information technology could adversely impact our ability to operate.
We have international operations that are subject to foreign economic and political uncertainties and risks. Unexpected and adverse changes in the foreign countries in which we operate could result in project disruptions, increased cost and potential losses.
Our backlog is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations.

Table of Contents
Our employees work on projects that are inherently dangerous and in locations where there are high security risks, and a failure to maintain a safe work site could result in significant losses.
Our businesses could be materially and adversely affected by events outside of our control.
Our actual results could differ from the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements.
If we experience delays and/or defaults in client payments, we could suffer liquidity problems or we could be unable to recover all expenditures.
We are dependent upon suppliers and subcontractors to complete many of our contracts.
Our U.S. government contracts and contracting rights may be terminated or otherwise adversely impacted at any time, and our inability to win or renew government contracts during regulated procurement processes could harm our operations and reduce our projects and revenues.
Our continued success requires us to hire and retain qualified personnel.
Our effective tax rate and tax positions may vary.
Systems and information technology interruption, as well as new systems implementation, could adversely impact our ability to operate and our operating results.
It can be very difficult and expensive to obtain the insurance we need for our business operations.
If we do not have adequate indemnification for our nuclear services, it could adversely affect our business and financial condition.
Foreign currency risks could have an adverse impact on revenue, earnings and/or backlog.
The loss of one or a few clients could have an adverse effect on us.
Damage to our reputation could in turn cause damage to our business.
Our business may be negatively impacted if we are unable to adequately protect intellectual property rights.
Our results of operations could be adversely affected as a result of asset impairments.
Risks Related to Financial Reporting
We identified material weaknesses in our ICFR in 2019, which were remediated in 2020. If we identify material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately and timely report our financial results.
Our prior failure to prepare and timely file our periodic reports with the SEC limits our access to the public markets to raise debt or equity capital and restricts our ability to issue equity securities.
We restated certain of our previously issued financial statements during 2020, which resulted in unanticipated costs and may affect investor confidence and raise reputational issues.
Risks Related to Indebtedness and other Credit Related Risks
Adverse credit and financial market conditions could impair our, our clients' and our partners' borrowing capacity, which could negatively affect our business operations, profits and growth objectives.
Our indebtedness could lead to adverse consequences or adversely affect our financial position and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under such indebtedness, and any refinancing of this debt could be at significantly higher interest rates.
We may be unable to win new contract awards if we cannot provide clients with letters of credit, bonds or other security or credit enhancements.
Legal and Regulatory Risks
From time to time, we are involved in litigation and regulatory proceedings, potential liability claims and contract disputes that may have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Our failure to recover adequately on claims against project owners, subcontractors or suppliers for payment or performance could have a material effect on our financial results.
We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws.
We could be adversely impacted if we fail to comply with domestic and international import and export laws.
Employee, agent or partner misconduct or our overall failure to comply with laws or regulations could weaken our ability to win contracts, which could result in reduced revenues and profits.
New or changing legal requirements, including those relating to climate change, could adversely affect our operating results.
Past and future environmental, safety and health regulations could impose significant additional costs on us that reduce our profits.

Risks Related to Mergers & Acquisitions and Strategic Plans
We cannot assure the successful implementation of our strategic and operational initiatives.
Any acquisitions, dispositions or other investments are subject to various risks or uncertainties and may not be completed in accordance with the expected plans or anticipated time frame, or at all, and will involve significant time and expense, which could disrupt or adversely affect our business.
We may be unable to successfully integrate acquisitions or investments we make into our businesses or capture the anticipated benefits of these acquisitions and investments.
Risks Related to our Common Stock
In the event we issue additional equity securities, stockholders' ownership percentages would be diluted.
Delaware law, our charter documents and our stockholder rights agreement may impede or discourage a takeover or change of control.
Risks Related to our Operations
COVID-19 has had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our business operations, results of operations and financial position.
There have been extraordinary and wide-ranging actions taken by international, federal, state and local public health and governmental authorities in response to COVID-19, including quarantines, government restrictions on movement, business closures and suspensions, canceled events and activities, self-isolation, and other voluntary or mandated changes in behavior. Both the outbreak of the disease and actions in response thereto have created significant uncertainty and economic volatility and disruption, which have impacted and may continue to impact our workforce and operations and have materially adversely affected and may continue to materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial performance, including, but not limited to, the following:
We have experienced, and may continue to experience, reductions in demand for certain of our services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial conditions or financial distress, as well as governmental budget constraints. These impacts are expected to continue or worsen if stay-at-home, social distancing, travel restrictions and other similar orders or restrictions remain in place for an extended period of time or are re-imposed after being lifted or eased.
Some clients have been, and may in the future be, unable to meet their payment obligations to us in a timely manner, including as a result of deteriorating financial condition or bankruptcy. Further, other third parties, such as suppliers, subcontractors, joint venture partners and other outside business partners, have experienced significant disruptions in their ability to satisfy their obligations with respect to us, or they may be unable to do so in the future altogether.
Many employers, including us, and governments continue to require all or a significant portion of employees to work remotely. While many of our employees can effectively perform their responsibilities while working remotely, some work may not be completed as efficiently as if it were performed on site. Additionally, we may be exposed to unexpected cybersecurity risks and additional information technology-related expenses as a result of these remote working requirements.
Illness, travel restrictions or other workforce disruptions have affected, and may continue to affect, our supply chain, our ability to timely and satisfactorily complete our clients’ projects, our ability to provide services to our clients or our other business processes.
We have furloughed certain employees and may need to further furlough or reduce the number of employees that we employ. We may experience difficulties associated with hiring additional employees or replacing employees, in particular with respect to roles that require security clearances or other special qualifications that may be limited or difficult to obtain.
In addition to existing travel restrictions implemented in response to COVID-19, jurisdictions may continue to close borders, impose prolonged quarantines and further restrict travel and business activity, which could materially impair our ability to conduct our operations, to source supplies through the global supply chain and to identify, pursue and capture new business opportunities, and which could continue to restrict the ability of our employees to access their workplaces. We also face the possibility of increased overhead or other expenses resulting from compliance with any future government orders or other measures enacted in response to COVID-19.

We operate in many countries around the world, and certain of those countries’ governments may be unable to effectively mitigate the financial or other impacts of COVID-19 on their economies and workforces and our operations therein.
The extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact us depends on numerous evolving factors and future developments that we are not currently able to predict and may also exacerbate other risks discussed in this 2020 10-K, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us, our business operations, results of operations and financial position.
We are vulnerable to the cyclical nature of the markets we serve.
The demand for our services is dependent upon the existence of projects with engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication, maintenance and management needs. Our clients' interest in approving new projects, budgets for capital expenditures and need for our services have in the past been, and may in the future be, adversely affected by, among other things, poor economic conditions, low oil prices, political uncertainties and currency devaluations. Clients have been and remain selective in how they allocate and expend their capital, which has resulted in a reduction of the number of projects we may bid on and win, especially the larger scale projects in which we specialize. For example, in our Energy & Chemicals segment, capital expenditures by our clients are influenced by factors such as prevailing prices and expectations about future prices for underlying commodities, technological advances, the costs of exploration, production and delivery of product, domestic and international political, military, regulatory and economic conditions and other similar factors. As a result of the decline in oil prices in the first quarter of 2020, demand for our services in our Energy & Chemicals segment has been adversely impacted. There is no guarantee that the current recovery in oil prices will be sustained, and the timing and extent of any future improvements in demand remain uncertain. Industries served by that segment and many of the others we serve have historically been and will continue to be vulnerable to general downturns, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the demand for our services.
Our revenue and earnings are largely dependent on the award of new contracts, which is driven by our clients.
The awarding and timing of projects is unpredictable and driven by our clients. Awards, including expansions of existing projects, often involve complex and lengthy negotiations and competitive bidding processes. These processes can be impacted by a wide variety of factors including a client's decision to not proceed with the development of a project, governmental approvals, financing contingencies, oil prices, environmental conditions and overall market and economic conditions. We may not win contracts that we have bid on due to price, a client's perception of our ability to perform and/or perceived technology advantages held by others. Many of our competitors may be more inclined to take greater or unusual risks or include terms and conditions in a contract that we might not deem acceptable, especially when the markets for the services we typically offer are relatively soft. Because a significant portion of our revenue is generated from large projects, our results of operations can fluctuate depending on whether and when large project awards occur and the commencement and progress of work under large contracts already awarded. As a result, we are subject to the risk of losing new awards to competitors or the risk that revenue may not be derived from awarded projects as quickly as anticipated. Additionally, uncertain economic and political conditions may make it difficult for our clients, our vendors and us to accurately forecast and plan future business activities. For example, recent changes to U.S. policies related to global trade and tariffs have resulted in uncertainty surrounding the future of the global economy as well as retaliatory trade measures implemented by other countries.
The nature of our contracts, particularly our lump-sum contracts, subject us to risks associated with delays and cost overruns, which may not be recoverable and may result in reduced profits or losses that could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Because our projects are often technically complex, with multiple phases occurring over several years, we incur risks in our project execution activities. These risks could result in project delays, cost overruns or other problems and can include the following:
Incorrect assumptions related to productivity, scheduling estimates or future economic conditions, including with respect to the impacts of inflation on lump-sum contracts;
Unanticipated technical problems, including design or engineering issues;
Inaccurate representations of site conditions and unanticipated changes in the project execution plan;
Project modifications creating unanticipated costs or delays and failure to properly manage project modifications;
Inability to achieve guaranteed performance or quality standards with regard to engineering, construction or project management obligations;
16

Table of Contents
Insufficient or inadequate project execution tools and systems needed to record, track, forecast and control cost and schedule;
Reliance on historic cost and/or execution data that is not representative of current economic and/or execution conditions;
Failure to accurately estimate the timing and cost of projects, including due to unforeseen increases in the cost of labor;
Unanticipated increases in the cost of raw materials, components or equipment, including due to the imposition of import tariffs;
Failure to properly make judgments in accordance with applicable professional standards, including engineering standards;
Failure to properly assess and update appropriate risk mitigation strategies and measures;
Difficulties related to the performance of our clients, partners, subcontractors, suppliers or other third parties;
Delays or productivity issues caused by weather; and
Changes in local laws or difficulties or delays in obtaining permits, rights of way or approvals.
These and other risks have in the past and may in the future result in our failure to achieve contractual cost or schedule commitments, safety performance, overall client satisfaction or other performance criteria. As a result, we may receive lower fees or lose our ability to earn incentive fees. In other cases, our fee will not change but we will have to continue to perform work without additional fees until the performance criteria is achieved. We may also be required to pay liquidated damages if we fail to complete a project on schedule. In addition, if we fail to meet guaranteed performance or quality standards, we may be held responsible under the guarantee or warranty provisions of our contract for cost impact to the client, generally in the form of contractually agreed-upon liquidated damages or an obligation to re-perform work. To the extent these events occur, the total cost to the project (including any liquidated damages we become liable to pay) could be material and could, in some circumstances, equal or exceed the full value of the contract. In such events, our financial condition or results of operations could be materially and negatively impacted.
In circumstances where the contract is lump-sum or the revenue is otherwise fixed, we bear significant risk for delays and cost overruns. Reimbursable contract types, such as those that include negotiated hourly billing rates, may restrict the kinds or amounts of costs that are reimbursable, therefore exposing us to the risk that we may incur certain costs in executing these contracts that are above our estimates and not recoverable from our clients.
Intense competition in the global EPC industry can reduce our revenue and profits.
We serve markets that are highly competitive and in which a large number of multinational companies compete. These markets require substantial resources and investment in technology and skilled personnel. We also see a continuing influx of non-traditional competitors offering below-market pricing while accepting greater risk. Competition places downward pressure on our contract prices and profit margins, and has in the past forced, and may in the future force, us to accept contractual terms and conditions that are not normal or customary, thereby increasing the risk of losses on such contracts. Intense competition is expected to continue in these markets, presenting us with significant challenges in our ability to maintain strong growth rates and acceptable profit margins. To the extent we are unable to meet these competitive challenges, we could lose revenue and experience an overall reduction in our profits.
The success of our use of teaming arrangements and joint ventures depends on the satisfactory performance by our venture partners over whom we may have little or no control, and the failure of those partners to perform their obligations could impose additional obligations on us that could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
In the ordinary course of business, and as has become increasingly common in our industry, we execute specific projects and otherwise conduct certain operations through joint ventures, consortiums, partnerships and other collaborative arrangements (collectively, "ventures"). We have various ownership interests in these ventures, with such ownership typically being proportionate to our decision-making and distribution rights. The ventures generally contract directly with the third party client; however, services may be performed directly by the venture, or may be performed by us, our partners, or a combination thereof.
Our success in many markets is dependent, in part, on the presence or capability of a local partner. If we are unable to compete alone, or with a quality partner, our ability to win work and successfully complete our contracts may be impacted.
17

Table of Contents
Differences in opinions or views between venture partners can result in delayed decision-making or failure to agree on material issues, which could adversely affect the business and operations of our ventures. In many of the countries in which we engage in joint ventures, it may be difficult to enforce our contractual rights under the applicable joint venture agreement.
At times, we also participate in ventures where we are not a controlling party or where we team with unaffiliated parties on a particular project bid. In such instances, we may have limited control over venture decisions and actions, including internal controls and financial reporting, which may have an impact on our business. If internal control problems arise within the joint venture, or if our joint venture partners have financial or operational issues, there could be a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
The success of these and other ventures also depends, in large part, on the satisfactory performance by our venture partners of their venture obligations, including their obligation to commit working capital, equity or credit support as required by the venture and to support their indemnification and other contractual obligations. If our venture partners fail to satisfactorily perform their venture obligations, the venture may be unable to adequately perform or deliver its contracted services. Under these circumstances, we may be required to make additional investments and provide additional services to ensure the adequate performance and delivery by the venture of the contracted services and to meet any performance guarantees. From time to time, in order to establish or preserve a relationship, or to better ensure venture success, we may accept risks or responsibilities for the venture that are not necessarily proportionate with the reward we expect to receive or that may differ from risks or responsibilities we would normally accept in our own operations. We may also be subject to joint and several liability for our venture partners under the applicable contracts for venture projects. These additional obligations could result in reduced profits or, in some cases, increased liabilities or significant losses for us with respect to the venture, and in turn, our business and operations. In addition, a failure by a venture partner to comply with applicable laws, rules or regulations could negatively impact our business and reputation and could result in fines, penalties, suspension or, in the case of government contracts, even debarment.
Cybersecurity breaches of our systems and information technology could adversely impact our ability to operate.
We utilize, develop, install and maintain a number of information technology systems both for us and for others. Various privacy and security laws require us to protect sensitive and confidential information from disclosure. In addition, we are bound by our client and other contracts, as well as our own business practices, to protect confidential and proprietary information (whether it be ours or a third party's information entrusted to us) from disclosure. Our computer systems, as well as those of our clients, contractors and other vendors, face the threat of unauthorized access, computer hackers, viruses, malicious code, cyber attacks, phishing and other security incursions and system disruptions, including attempts to improperly access our confidential and proprietary information as well as the confidential and proprietary information of our clients and other business partners. While we endeavor to maintain industry-accepted security measures and technology to secure our computer systems and while we endeavor to ensure our cloud vendors that store our data maintain similar measures, these systems and the information stored on these systems may still be subject to threats. There can be no assurance that our efforts will protect us against all threats. Further, as these security threats continue to evolve, we may be required to devote additional resources to protect, detect and respond against such threats. A party who circumvents our security measures, or those of our clients, contractors or other vendors, could misappropriate confidential or proprietary information, improperly manipulate data, or cause damage or interruptions to systems. Any of these events could damage our reputation, result in litigation and regulatory fines and penalties, or have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Furthermore, while we maintain insurance that specifically covers cybersecurity threats, our coverage may not sufficiently cover all types of losses or claims that may arise.
We have international operations that are subject to foreign economic and political uncertainties and risks. Unexpected and adverse changes in the foreign countries in which we operate could result in project disruptions, increased cost and potential losses.
Our business is subject to international economic and political conditions that change (sometimes frequently) for reasons that are beyond our control. We expect that a significant portion of our revenue and profits will continue to come from international projects for the foreseeable future.
Operating in the international marketplace exposes us to a number of risks including:
abrupt changes in government policies, laws, treaties (including those impacting trade), regulations or leadership;
embargoes or other trade restrictions, including sanctions;
restrictions on currency movement;
tax or tariff changes;
18

Table of Contents
currency exchange rate fluctuations;
changes in labor conditions and difficulties in staffing and managing international operations, including logistical and communication challenges;
U.S. government trade or other policy changes in relation to the foreign countries in which we or our clients operate;
other social, political and economic instability, including recessions and other economic crises in other regions;
natural disasters and public health crises, including pandemics such as COVID-19;
expropriation and nationalization of our assets in a foreign country;
international hostilities; and
unrest, civil strife, acts of war, terrorism and insurrection.
Also, the lack of a well-developed legal system in some of the countries where we operate may make it difficult to enforce our contractual rights or to defend ourself against claims made by others. We operate in locations where there is a significant amount of political risk. In addition, military action or continued unrest could impact the supply or pricing of oil, disrupt our operations in the region and elsewhere, and increase our security costs. Our level of exposure to these risks may vary with each project, depending on the location of the project and its stage of completion. For example, our risk exposure with respect to a project in an early development phase, such as engineering, will generally be less than our risk exposure on a project that is in the construction phase. To the extent that our international business is affected by unexpected and adverse foreign economic and political conditions and risks, we may experience project disruptions and losses. Project disruptions and losses could significantly reduce our overall revenue and profits.
Our backlog is subject to unexpected adjustments and cancellations.
Our backlog generally consists of projects for which we have an executed contract or commitment with a client and reflects our expected revenue from the contract or commitment, which is often subject to revision over time. We cannot guarantee that the revenue projected in our backlog will be realized or profitable or will not be subject to delay or suspension. Project cancellations, scope adjustments or deferrals, or foreign currency fluctuations may occur with respect to contracts reflected in our backlog and could reduce the dollar amount of our backlog and the revenue and profits that we actually earn; or, may cause the rate at which we perform on our backlog to decrease. Most of our contracts have termination for convenience provisions in them allowing clients to cancel projects already awarded to us. Our contracts typically provide for the payment of fees earned through the date of termination and the reimbursement of costs incurred including demobilization costs. In addition, projects may remain in our backlog for an extended period of time. During periods of economic slowdown, or decreases and/or instability in oil prices, the risk of projects being suspended, delayed or canceled generally increases. Finally, poor project or contract performance could also impact our backlog and profits. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on our business and our profits.
Our employees work on projects that are inherently dangerous and in locations where there are high security risks, and a failure to maintain a safe work site could result in significant losses.
We often work on complex projects, frequently in geographically remote or high-risk locations that are subject to political, social or economic risks, or war or civil unrest. In those locations where we have employees or operations, we may expend significant efforts and incur substantial security costs to maintain the safety of our personnel. In addition, our project sites can place our employees and others near large equipment, dangerous processes or substances or highly regulated materials, and in challenging environments. Safety is a primary focus of our business and is critical to our reputation and performance. Many of our clients require that we meet certain safety criteria to be eligible to bid on contracts, and some of our contract fees or profits are subject to satisfying safety criteria. Unsafe work conditions also have the potential of increasing employee turnover, increasing project costs and raising our operating costs. If we fail to implement appropriate safety procedures and/or if our procedures fail, our employees or others may suffer injuries or even loss of life, the completion of a project could be delayed and we could experience investigations or litigation. Although we maintain functional groups whose primary purpose is to implement effective health, safety and environmental procedures throughout our company, the failure to comply with such procedures, client contracts or applicable regulations could subject us to losses and liability. Despite these activities, in these locations and at these sites, we cannot guarantee the safety of our personnel, nor can we guarantee our work, equipment or supplies will be free from damage.

Our businesses could be materially and adversely affected by events outside of our control.
Extraordinary or force majeure events beyond our control, such as natural or man-made disasters, severe weather conditions, public health crises, political crises or other catastrophic events, could negatively impact our ability to operate or increase our costs to operate. Such events may result in disruptions to our operations; evacuation of personnel; increased labor and material costs or shortages; inability to deliver materials, equipment and personnel to jobsites in accordance with contract schedules; and loss of productivity. We may remain obligated to perform our services after any such events, unless a contract provision provides us with relief from our obligations. The extra costs incurred as a result of these events may not be reimbursed by our clients. If we are not able to react quickly to such events, or if a high concentration of our projects are impacted by such an event, our operations may be adversely affected. In addition, if we cannot complete our contracts on time, we may be subject to potential liability claims by our clients, which may reduce our profits and result in losses.
Our actual results could differ from the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements.
In preparing our financial statements, we make estimates and assumptions through the filing date of the 2020 10-K. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Areas requiring significant estimates by our management include:
recognition of contract revenue, costs, profits or losses in applying the principles of percentage-of-completion accounting;
recognition of revenues related to project incentives or awards we expect to receive;
recognition of recoveries under contract change orders or claims;
estimated amounts for expected project losses, warranty costs, contract close-out or other costs;
collectability of billed and unbilled accounts receivable and the need and amount of any allowance for doubtful accounts;
asset valuations;
income tax provisions and related valuation allowances;
determination of expense and potential liabilities under pension and other post-retirement benefit programs; and
accruals for other estimated liabilities, including litigation and insurance revenues/reserves.
Estimates are based on management's reasonable assumptions and experience, but are only estimates. Our actual business and financial results could differ from our estimates of such results due to changes in facts and circumstances, which could have a material negative impact on our financial condition and reported results of operations. Further, we recognize contract revenue as work on a contract progresses. The cumulative amount of revenue recorded on a contract at any point in time is that percentage of total estimated revenues that costs incurred to date bear to estimated total costs. Accordingly, contract revenue and total cost estimates are reviewed and revised as the work progresses. Adjustments are reflected in contract revenue in the period when such estimates are revised. Such adjustments could be material and could result in reduced profitability.
If we experience delays and/or defaults in client payments, we could suffer liquidity problems or we could be unable to recover all expenditures.
Because of the nature of our contracts, we sometimes commit resources to projects prior to receiving payments from clients in amounts sufficient to cover expenditures as they are incurred. Some of our clients have found it difficult to pay invoices for our services timely, increasing the risk that our accounts receivable could become uncollectible and ultimately be written off. In certain cases, our clients for our large projects are project-specific entities that do not have significant assets other than their interests in the project. From time to time, it has been and may in the future be difficult for us to collect payments owed to us by these clients. In addition, clients may request extension of the payment terms otherwise agreed to under our contracts. Delays in client payments may require us to make a working capital investment, which could impact our cash flows and liquidity. If a client fails to pay invoices on a timely basis or defaults in making its payments on a project in which we have devoted significant resources, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations or liquidity.
We are dependent upon suppliers and subcontractors to complete many of our contracts.
Some of the work performed under our contracts is performed by third-party subcontractors. We also rely on third-party suppliers to provide much of the equipment and materials used for projects. If we are unable to hire qualified
20

Table of Contents
subcontractors or find qualified suppliers, our ability to successfully or timely complete a project could be impaired. If the amount we are required to pay for subcontractors or equipment and supplies exceeds what we have estimated, especially in a lump-sum contract, we may suffer losses on these contracts. If a supplier or subcontractor fails to provide supplies, technology, equipment or services as required under a contract to us, our joint venture partner, our client or any other party involved in the project for any reason, or provides supplies, technology, equipment or services that are not an acceptable quality, we may be required to source those supplies, technology, equipment or services on a delayed basis or at a higher price than anticipated, which could impact contract profitability. In addition, faulty workmanship, equipment or materials could impact the overall project, resulting in claims against us for failure to meet required project specifications. These risks may be intensified during an economic downturn if these suppliers or subcontractors experience financial difficulties or find it difficult to obtain sufficient financing to fund their operations or access to bonding, and are not able to provide the services or supplies necessary for our business. In addition, in instances where we rely on a single contracted supplier or subcontractor or a small number of suppliers or subcontractors, if a subcontractor or supplier were to fail, there may be no available replacement technology, equipment, materials or services on a timely basis or at the costs we had anticipated. A failure by a third-party subcontractor or supplier to comply with applicable laws, rules or regulations could negatively impact our business and reputation and could result in fines, penalties, suspension, or in the case of government contracts, even debarment.
Our U.S. government contracts and contracting rights may be terminated or otherwise adversely impacted at any time, and our inability to win or renew government contracts during regulated procurement processes could harm our operations and reduce our projects and revenues.
We enter into significant government contracts, including those contracts that we have in place with the U.S. Department of Energy and Department of Defense. U.S. government contracts are subject to various uncertainties, restrictions and regulations, including oversight audits by government agencies and profit and cost controls, which could result in withholding or delay of payments to us. U.S. government contracts are also subject to uncertainties associated with Congressional funding, including the potential impacts of budget deficits, government shutdowns and federal sequestration. Changes in U.S. government priorities, which can occur due to policy changes or changes in the economy, could adversely impact our revenues. The U.S. government is under no obligation to maintain program funding at any specific level, and funds for a program may even be eliminated. Our U.S. government clients may terminate or decide not to renew our contracts with little or no prior notice.
In addition, U.S. government contracts are subject to specific regulations such as the Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR"), the Truth in Negotiations Act, the Cost Accounting Standards ("CAS"), the Service Contract Act and Department of Defense security regulations. Failure to comply with any of these regulations and other government requirements may result in contract price adjustments, financial penalties or contract termination. Our U.S. government contracts are also subject to audits, cost reviews and investigations by U.S. government oversight agencies such as the U.S. Defense Contract Audit Agency (the "DCAA"). The DCAA reviews the adequacy of, and our compliance with, our internal control systems and policies (including our labor, billing, accounting, purchasing, estimating, compensation and management information systems). The DCAA also has the ability to review how we have accounted for costs under the FAR and CAS. The DCAA presents its report findings to the Defense Contract Management Agency ("DCMA"). Should the DCMA determine that we have not complied with the terms of our contract and applicable statutes and regulations, or if they believe that we have engaged in inappropriate accounting or other activities, payments to us may be disallowed or we could be required to refund previously collected payments. Additionally, we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties, suspension or debarment from future government contracts, and qui tam litigation brought by private individuals on behalf of the U.S. government under the False Claims Act, which could include claims for treble damages. These suits may remain under seal (and hence, be unknown to us) for some time while the government decides whether to intervene on behalf of the qui tam plaintiff. Furthermore, if we have significant disagreements with our government clients concerning costs incurred, negative publicity could arise, which could adversely affect our industry reputation and our ability to compete for new contracts in the government arena or otherwise.
Most U.S. government contracts are awarded through a rigorous competitive process. The U.S. government has increasingly relied upon multiple-year contracts with pre-established terms and conditions that generally require those contractors that have been previously awarded the contract to engage in an additional competitive bidding process for each task order issued under the contract. Such processes require successful contractors to anticipate requirements and develop rapid-response bid and proposal teams as well as dedicated supplier relationships and delivery systems to react to these needs. We face rigorous competition and significant pricing pressures in order to win these task orders. If we are not successful in containing costs or able to timely respond to government requests, we may not win additional awards. Moreover, even if we are qualified to work on a government contract, we may be impacted in our pursuit of work by government policies designed to protect small businesses and under- represented minority contractors.
Many of our U.S. government contracts require security clearances. Depending upon the level of clearance required, security clearances can be difficult and time-consuming to obtain. If we or our employees are unable to obtain or retain
21

Table of Contents
necessary security clearances, we may not be able to win new business, and our existing government clients could terminate their contracts with us or decide not to renew them.
Under the Budget Control Act of 2011, an automatic sequestration process, or across-the-board budget cuts, was triggered when the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction, a committee of twelve members of Congress, failed to agree on a deficit reduction plan for the U.S. federal budget. The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019 (the “BBA”) eliminates sequestration on discretionary accounts in 2020 and 2021 by increasing federal discretionary spending limits until 2021. The BBA also temporarily suspends the public debt limit through July 31, 2021. However, the Budget Control Act of 2011 remains in place, extended through 2029, and absent additional legislative or other remedial action, the sequestration could require reduced U.S. federal government spending from 2022 through 2029. A significant reduction in federal government spending or a change in budgetary priorities could reduce demand for our services, cancel or delay federal projects, and result in the closure of federal facilities and significant personnel reductions, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our continued success requires us to hire and retain qualified personnel.
The success of our business is dependent upon being able to attract, develop and retain personnel, including engineers, project management, craft employees and management around the globe, who have the necessary and required experience and expertise, and who will perform these services at a reasonable and competitive rate. Competition for these and other experienced personnel is intense. It may be difficult to attract and retain qualified individuals with the expertise and in the timeframe demanded by our clients. In certain geographic areas, for example, we may be unable to satisfy the demand for our services because of our inability to deploy qualified personnel. Also, it may be difficult to replace personnel who hold government granted eligibility that may be required to obtain certain government projects and/or who have significant government contract experience. Loss of the services of, or failure to recruit, qualified technical and management personnel could limit our ability to successfully complete existing projects and compete for new projects.
As some of our executives and other key personnel approach retirement age or otherwise leave the company, we need to provide for smooth transitions, which may require that we devote time and resources to identify and integrate new personnel into these leadership roles and other key positions. Changes in our management team may disrupt our business and the failure to successfully transition and assimilate executives or other key personnel could adversely affect our results of operation. If we are unable to employ a sufficient number of skilled personnel or effectively implement appropriate succession plans, our ability to pursue projects may be adversely affected, the costs of executing our existing and future projects may increase and our financial performance may decline.
In addition, the cost of providing our services, including the extent to which we utilize our workforce, affects our profitability. For example, the uncertainty of contract award timing can present difficulties in matching our workforce size with our contracts. If an expected contract award is delayed or not received, we could incur costs resulting from excess staff, reductions in staff, or redundancy of facilities that could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial conditions and results of operations.
Our effective tax rate and tax positions may vary.
We are subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous foreign jurisdictions. A change in tax laws, treaties or regulations, or their interpretation, in any country in which we operate could change the tax rate on our earnings, which could have a material impact on our results of operations. In addition, significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes and our judgments could prove inaccurate. In the ordinary course of our business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. We are regularly under audit by tax authorities, and our tax estimates and tax positions could be materially affected by many factors including the final outcome of tax audits and related litigation, the introduction of new tax accounting standards, legislation, regulations and related interpretations, our global mix of earnings, our ability to realize deferred tax assets and changes in uncertain tax positions. Future changes in our tax rate or adverse changes in tax laws could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and liquidity.
Systems and information technology interruption, as well as new systems implementation, could adversely impact our ability to operate and our operating results.
As a global company, we are heavily reliant on computer, information and communications technology and related systems, some of which are hosted by third party providers, in order to operate. From time to time, we experience system interruptions and delays that may be planned for upgrades or that may be unplanned. Unplanned interruptions could result from natural disasters, power loss, telecommunications failures, acts of war or terrorism, acts of God, computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar events or disruptions. Any of these or other events could cause system interruptions, delays, loss of critical or sensitive data (including personal or financial data) or loss of funds; could delay or
22

Table of Contents
prevent operations (including the processing of transactions and reporting of financial results); and could adversely affect our reputation or our operating results. While we have and require the maintenance of reasonable safeguards designed to protect against unavailability or loss of data, these safeguards may not be sufficient. We may be required to expend significant resources to protect against or alleviate damage caused by systems interruptions and delays, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and cash flows.
We continue to evaluate the need to upgrade and/or replace our systems and network infrastructure to protect our computing environment, to stay current on vendor supported products, to improve the efficiency of our systems and for other business reasons. The implementation of new systems and information technology could adversely impact our operations by imposing substantial capital expenditures, demands on management time and risks of delays or difficulties in transitioning to new systems. Our systems implementations also may not result in productivity improvements at the levels anticipated. Systems implementation disruption and any other information technology disruption, if not anticipated and appropriately mitigated, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
It can be very difficult and expensive to obtain the insurance we need for our business operations.
As part of business operations we maintain insurance both as a corporate risk management strategy and to satisfy the requirements of many of our contracts. Although we have been generally able to cover our insurance needs, there can be no assurances that we can secure all necessary or appropriate insurance in the future, or that such insurance can be economically secured. For example, catastrophic events can result in decreased coverage limits, more limited coverage, increased premium costs or deductibles. We also monitor the financial health of the insurance companies from which we procure insurance, and this is one of the factors we take into account when purchasing insurance. Our insurance is purchased from a number of the world's leading providers, often in layered insurance or quota share arrangements. If any of our third party insurers fail, abruptly cancel our coverage or otherwise cannot satisfy their insurance requirements to us, then our overall risk exposure and operational expenses could be increased and our business operations could be interrupted.
If we do not have adequate indemnification for our nuclear services, it could adversely affect our business and financial condition.
We provide services to the U.S. Department of Energy and the nuclear energy industry in the on-going maintenance and modification of nuclear facilities as well as decontamination and decommissioning activities of nuclear plants. The Price-Anderson Act generally indemnifies parties performing services to nuclear power plants and Department of Energy contractors; however, not all activities we engage in on behalf of our clients are covered. Thus, if the Price-Anderson Act indemnification protections do not apply to our services, or if the exposure occurs outside of the United States in a region that does not have protections comparable to the Price-Anderson Act, our business and financial condition could be adversely affected by our client's refusal to contract with us, by our inability to obtain commercially reasonable insurance or third party indemnification, or by the potentially significant monetary damages we could incur.
Foreign currency risks could have an adverse impact on revenue, earnings and/or backlog.
Certain of our contracts subject us to foreign currency risk, particularly when project contract revenue is denominated in a currency different than the contract costs. In addition, our operational cash flows and cash balances, though predominately held in U.S. dollars, may consist of different currencies at various points in time in order to execute our project contracts globally and meet transactional requirements. We may attempt to minimize our exposure to foreign currency risk by obtaining contract provisions that protect us from foreign currency fluctuations and/or by implementing hedging strategies utilizing derivatives as hedging instruments. However, these actions may not always eliminate all foreign currency risk, and as a result, our profitability on certain projects could be affected.
Our monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies are subject to remeasurement. In addition, the U.S. dollar value of our backlog may from time to time increase or decrease significantly due to foreign currency volatility. We may also be exposed to limitations on our ability to reinvest earnings from operations in one country to fund our operations in other countries.
Our reported revenue and earnings of foreign subsidiaries could also be affected by foreign currency volatility. Revenue, cost and earnings of foreign subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars. If the U.S. dollar appreciates against a foreign subsidiary's non-U.S. dollar functional currency, we would report less revenue, cost and earnings in U.S. dollars than it would have had the U.S. dollar depreciated against the same foreign currency or if there had been no change in the exchange rate.

The loss of one or a few clients could have an adverse effect on us.
A few clients, including the U.S. government, state governments and U.S. and state government agencies, have in the past, and may in the future, account for a significant portion of our revenues in any one year or over a period of several consecutive years, either directly or through participation in a joint venture that serves as a client. Although we have long-standing relationships with many of our significant clients, our clients may unilaterally reduce, fail to renew or terminate their contracts with us at any time. Most of our contracts have termination for convenience provisions in them. The loss of business from a significant client could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.
Damage to our reputation could in turn cause damage to our business.
Maintaining a positive reputation is critical to attracting and maintaining clients and other business relationships. If we fail to address issues that may give rise to reputational risk, we could significantly harm our business. These issues may include, but are not limited to, any of the risk factors discussed in this Item 1A, including compliance with laws, project execution risk, cybersecurity and safety. If our reputation is harmed, we could suffer a number of adverse consequences, such as:
reduced demand for our services;
lack of investor confidence;
less favorable credit rating;
the inability to attract and retain qualified employees;
a loss or reduction in scope of current project contracts and fewer contract awards;
less favorable contract terms;
increased need for financial assurances;
increased litigation and costs; and
heightened regulatory scrutiny.
These and other consequences resulting from damage to our reputation could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our business may be negatively impacted if we are unable to adequately protect intellectual property rights.
Our success is dependent, in part, on our ability to differentiate our services through our technologies and know-how. This success includes the ability of companies in which we invest, such as NuScale, to protect their intellectual property rights. We utilize a combination of patents, copyrights, trade secrets, confidentiality agreements and other contractual arrangements to protect our interests. However, these methods only provide a limited amount of protection and may not adequately protect our interests. Our employees, contractors and joint venture partners are subject to confidentiality obligations, but this protection may be inadequate to deter or prevent misappropriation of our confidential information and/or infringement of our intellectual property rights. This can be especially true in certain foreign countries where intellectual property does not have equivalent protections as in the United States, or when our joint venture partner is a competitor who will gain access to our procedures and know-how while working with us in the performance of services.
Our clients require broad ownership rights in the work product and other materials we deliver. If we are not able to retain ownership of our pre-existing intellectual property and improvements thereto, it may affect our ability to provide similar services to other clients in the future, which ultimately, could have a material adverse effect on our operations.
Our competitors or others may independently develop technology substantially similar to our trade secret technology or we may be unsuccessful in preserving our intellectual property rights in the future. Our intellectual property rights could be invalidated, circumvented, challenged or infringed upon. Litigation to determine the scope of intellectual property rights, even if ultimately successful, could be costly and could divert management's attention.
In addition, our clients or other third parties may also provide us with their technology and intellectual property. There is a risk that we may not sufficiently protect our or their information from improper use or dissemination and, as a result, could be subject to claims and litigation and resulting liabilities, loss of contracts or other consequences that could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operation.
24

Table of Contents
We also hold licenses from third parties that may be utilized in our business operations. If we are no longer able to license such technology on commercially reasonable terms or otherwise, our business and financial performance could be adversely affected. When we license our intellectual property to third parties, the scope of such license grant is limited to a particular plant or project. If such third party exceeds the scope of the license grant, and if we are unable to detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property or otherwise take appropriate steps to enforce our rights, our revenue and margins will be adversely impacted, and the value of our intellectual property portfolio may decline thereby adversely affecting our competitive advantage and ability to win future work.
Our results of operations could be adversely affected as a result of asset impairments.
Our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected by impairments to goodwill, investments, deferred tax assets or other intangible assets. Goodwill and other intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but instead are tested at least annually for impairment. Any future impairments, including impairments of goodwill, investments, deferred tax assets or other intangible assets, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, if we determine that an other-than-temporary decline in the fair value exists for a company in which we have invested, we may have to write down that investment to its fair value and recognize the related write-down as an investment loss. For cases in which we are required under the equity method or the proportionate consolidation method of accounting to recognize a proportionate share of another company's income or loss, such income or loss may impact our earnings.
Risks Related to Financial Reporting
We identified material weaknesses in our ICFR in 2019, which were remediated in 2020. If we identify material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately and timely report our financial results.
In connection with our 2019 year-end assessment of ICFR, we determined that we did not have an effective ICFR at December 31, 2019. We took steps to improve our ICFR and determined that we have an effective ICFR at December 31, 2020.
If we identify amaterial weaknesses in the future or are unable to successfully remediate any future material weaknesses or other deficiencies in our ICFR, the accuracy and timing of our financial reporting may be adversely affected, we may be unable to maintain or regain compliance with applicable securities laws and New York Stock Exchange listing requirements and we may be subject to regulatory investigations and penalties.
Our prior failure to prepare and timely file our periodic reports with the SEC limits our access to the public markets to raise debt or equity capital and restricts our ability to issue equity securities.
We did not timely file our 2019 10-K or our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 or September 30, 2020 within the timeframe specified by the SEC. This limits our ability to utilize a shelf registration during 2021 to access the public markets to raise debt or equity capital, which could prevent us from pursuing transactions or implementing business strategies that we might otherwise believe are beneficial to our business. We are not eligible to use a registration statement on Form S-3 that would allow us to continuously incorporate by reference our SEC reports until December 2021. If we wish to pursue a public offering ahead of that date, we would be required to file a registration statement on Form S-1 and have it reviewed and declared effective by the SEC. Doing so could take significantly longer than using a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, increase our transaction costs and adversely impact our ability to raise capital or complete acquisitions of other companies in a timely manner.
We restated certain of our previously issued financial statements during 2020, which resulted in unanticipated costs and may affect investor confidence and raise reputational issues.
As disclosed in our 2019 10-K, we restated our financial statements and related disclosures for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 and for each of the interim quarterly periods in 2018 and 2019, following the identification of misstatements as a result of an internal review. The restatement also included other immaterial adjustments to historical periods, including items previously identified and corrected in earlier periods and for other non-project items identified outside of the internal review. As a result, we incurred previously unanticipated costs for accounting and legal fees in connection with or related to the restatement, and have become subject to a number of additional risks and uncertainties, which may affect investor confidence in the accuracy of our financial disclosures and may raise reputational issues for our business.

Risks Related to Indebtedness
Adverse credit and financial market conditions could impair our, our clients' and our partners' borrowing capacity, which could negatively affect our business operations, profits and growth objectives.
Our ability to generate cash is important for the funding of our operations, investing in joint ventures, the servicing of our indebtedness, paying dividends to stockholders and making acquisitions. To the extent that existing cash balances and cash flow from operations, together with borrowing capacity under our credit facilities, are insufficient to make investments or acquisitions or provide needed working capital, we may require additional financing from other sources. Our ability to obtain such additional financing will depend upon prevailing capital market conditions, including those arising due to events occurring in our industry, as well as conditions in our business and our operating results; and those factors may affect our efforts to negotiate terms that are acceptable to us. Furthermore, if global economic, industry, political or other market conditions adversely affect the financial institutions that provide credit to us, it is possible that our ability to establish or draw upon our credit facilities may be impacted. In addition, a downgrade in our credit rating could increase the cost of our borrowings or their refinancing, limit access to sources of financing or lead to other adverse consequences. If adequate funds are not available, or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to make future investments, take advantage of acquisitions or other opportunities, or respond to competitive challenges.
In addition, adverse credit and financial market conditions also adversely affect our clients' and our partners' borrowing capacity, which support the continuation and expansion of projects worldwide, and could result in contract cancellations or suspensions, project award and execution delays, payment delays or defaults by our clients. These disruptions could materially impact our backlog and profits. If we extend a significant portion of credit to our clients or projects in a specific geographic region or industry, we may experience higher levels of collection risk or non-payment if those clients are impacted by factors specific to their geographic industry or region.
Our indebtedness could lead to adverse consequences or adversely affect our financial position and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under such indebtedness, and any refinancing of this debt could be at significantly higher interest rates.
Our indebtedness could have important consequences, including but not limited to:
increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make debt service payments, thereby reducing the availability of cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and investments and other general corporate purposes;
limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, challenges and opportunities, and changes in our businesses and the markets in which we operate; and
limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund our working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and debt service requirements and other financing needs.
Our ability to service our indebtedness will depend on our future operating performance and financial results, which may be subject to factors beyond our control, including general economic, financial and business conditions. If we do not have sufficient cash flow to service our indebtedness, we may need to refinance all or part of our existing indebtedness, borrow more money or sell securities or assets, some or all of which may not be available to us at acceptable terms or at all. In addition, we may need to incur additional indebtedness in the future in the ordinary course of business. Although the terms of our credit agreements and our bond indentures allow us to incur additional debt, there are limitations which may preclude us from incurring the amount of indebtedness we otherwise desire.
Our credit facilities, senior notes, other outstanding indebtedness and any additional indebtedness we incur in the future impose, or may impose, significant operating and financial restrictions on us. In addition, our credit facilities require us to maintain specified financial covenants. A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default. If a default occurs, the relevant lenders could elect to declare our indebtedness, together with accrued interest and other fees, to be immediately due and payable. If our operating performance declines, or if we are unable to comply with any covenant, such as our ability to timely prepare and file our periodic reports with the SEC, we have needed and may in the future need to obtain amendments to our credit agreements or waivers from the required creditors under our indebtedness instruments to avoid being in default. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or share price.

We may be unable to win new contract awards if we cannot provide clients with letters of credit, bonds or other security or credit enhancements.
It is a common industry practice for clients to require us to provide surety bonds, letters of credit, bank guarantees or other forms of financial assurance as credit enhancements. Surety bonds, letters of credit or guarantees indemnify our clients if we fail to perform our obligations under our contracts. Historically, we have had strong surety bonding capacity due to our investment-grade credit rating, but, bonding is provided at the surety's sole discretion. In addition, because of the overall limitations in worldwide bonding capacity, we may find it difficult to access sufficient surety bonding capacity to meet our total surety bonding needs. With regard to letters of credit, while we have historically had adequate capacity under our existing credit facilities, any capacity that may be required in excess of our credit limits would be at our lenders' sole discretion and therefore is not certain. Failure to provide credit enhancements on terms required by a client may result in an inability to compete for or win a project.
Legal and Regulatory Risks
From time to time, we are involved in litigation and regulatory proceedings, potential liability claims and contract disputes that may have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
We may be subject to a variety of legal or regulatory proceedings, liability claims or contract disputes in virtually every part of the world. We engage in engineering and construction activities for large facilities where design, construction or systems failures can result in substantial injury or damage. In addition, the nature of our business results in clients, subcontractors and suppliers occasionally presenting claims against us for recovery of costs they incurred in excess of what they expected to incur, or for which they believe they are not contractually liable. We have been and may in the future be named as a defendant in legal proceedings where parties may make a claim for damages or other remedies with respect to our projects or other matters, including shareholder litigation. During times of economic uncertainty, especially with regard to our commodity-based clients, claim frequencies and amounts tend to increase.
In proceedings where it is determined that we have liability, we may not be covered by insurance or, if covered, the dollar amount of these liabilities may exceed our policy limits. In addition, even where insurance is maintained for such exposure, the policies have deductibles resulting in our assuming exposure for a layer of coverage with respect to any such claims. Our professional liability coverage is on a "claims-made" basis covering only claims actually made during the policy period currently in effect. Any liability not covered by our insurance, in excess of our insurance limits or, if covered by insurance but subject to a high deductible, could result in a material loss for us, and materially reduce our cash available for operations.
As previously disclosed, we have received subpoenas from both the SEC and the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") seeking documents and information related to projects for which we recorded charges in the second quarter of 2019 and certain project accounting, financial reporting and governance matters. We are coordinating our responses to the SEC and DOJ and cooperating in providing the requested documents and information. In addition to these investigations, a special committee of our Board of Directors independently conducted and completed a review of our prior period reporting and related control environment.
If the SEC or DOJ commences legal action as a result of the investigations, we could be required to pay significant penalties and become subject to injunctions, cease and desist orders, and other equitable remedies. We can provide no assurances as to the outcome or timing of any governmental or regulatory investigation.
In addition to these investigations, we have also had numerous securities class action lawsuits and stockholder derivative actions filed against us and certain of our current and former executive officers and directors.
We have incurred, and may continue to incur, significant expenses related to legal, accounting, and other professional services in connection with the SEC investigation, the DOJ investigation, lawsuits and related legal and regulatory matters. These expenses and the diversion of the attention of the management team that has occurred, and is expected to continue, has adversely affected, and could continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition and results of operations.
As a result of matters associated with the SEC and DOJ investigations and various lawsuits, we are exposed to greater risks associated with litigation, regulatory proceedings, and government enforcement actions and additional subpoenas. Any future investigations or additional lawsuits may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In other legal or regulatory proceedings, liability claims or contract disputes, we may be covered by indemnification agreements that may at times be difficult to enforce. Even if enforceable, it may be difficult to recover under these agreements if the indemnitor does not have the ability to financially support the indemnity. Litigation and regulatory

proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur, including for monetary damages. If we were to receive an unfavorable ruling in a matter, our business and results of operations could be materially harmed. Such proceedings can also be costly, time-consuming, disruptive to operations and distracting to management, regardless of the outcome. For further information on matters in dispute, please see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Our failure to recover adequately on claims against project owners, subcontractors or suppliers for payment or performance could have a material effect on our financial results.
We occasionally bring claims against clients for additional costs exceeding the contract price or for amounts not included in the original contract price. Similarly, we present change orders and claims to our subcontractors and suppliers. If we fail to properly provide notice or document the nature of change orders or claims, or are otherwise unsuccessful in negotiating a reasonable settlement, we could incur reduced profits, cost overruns and in some cases a loss on the project. These types of claims can often occur due to matters such as owner-caused delays or changes from the initial project scope, which result in additional cost, both direct and indirect. From time to time, these claims can be the subject of lengthy and costly proceedings, and it is often difficult to accurately predict when these claims will be fully resolved. When these types of events occur and while unresolved claims are pending, we may invest significant working capital in projects to cover cost overruns pending the resolution of the relevant claims. A failure to promptly recover on these types of claims could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity and financial results.
We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws.
The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010 and similar anti-bribery laws in other jurisdictions generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to officials or others for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. While our policies mandate compliance with these anti-bribery laws, we operate in many parts of the world that have experienced corruption to some degree and, in certain circumstances, strict compliance with anti-bribery laws may conflict with local customs and practices. We train our personnel concerning anti-bribery laws and issues, and we also inform our partners, subcontractors, suppliers, agents and others who work for us or on our behalf that they must comply with anti-bribery law requirements. We also have procedures and controls in place to monitor compliance. However, there is no assurance that our internal controls and procedures will always protect us from the possible reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees or agents. If we are found to be liable for anti-bribery law violations (either due to our own acts or our inadvertence, or due to the acts or inadvertence of others including our partners, agents, subcontractors or suppliers), we could suffer from criminal or civil penalties or other sanctions, including contract cancellations or debarment, and loss of reputation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Litigation or investigations relating to alleged or suspected violations of anti-bribery laws, even if ultimately such litigation or investigations demonstrate that we did not violate anti-bribery laws, could be costly and could divert management's attention away from other aspects of our business.
We could be adversely impacted if we fail to comply with domestic and international import and export laws.
Our global operations require importing and exporting goods and technology across international borders on a regular basis. Our policies mandate strict compliance with U.S. and foreign international trade laws. To the extent we export technical services, data and products outside of the United States, we are subject to U.S. and international laws and regulations governing international trade and exports including but not limited to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, the Export Administration Regulations and trade sanctions against embargoed countries, which are administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control within the Department of Treasury. From time to time, we identify certain inadvertent or potential export or related violations. These violations may include, for example, transfers without required governmental authorization. A failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in civil or criminal sanctions, including the imposition of fines, the denial of export privileges, and suspension or debarment from participation in U.S. government contracts.
Employee, agent or partner misconduct or our overall failure to comply with laws or regulations could weaken our ability to win contracts, which could result in reduced revenues and profits.
Misconduct, fraud, non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, or other improper activities by one of our employees, agents or partners could have a significant negative impact on our business and reputation. Such misconduct could include the failure to comply with anti-corruption, export control and environmental regulations; federal procurement regulations, regulations regarding the pricing of labor and other costs in government contracts and regulations regarding the protection of sensitive government information; regulations on lobbying or similar activities; regulations pertaining to the internal control over financial reporting; and various other applicable laws or regulations. The precautions we take to prevent and detect fraud, misconduct or failures to comply with applicable laws and regulations may not be effective, and we could face unknown risks or losses. Failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations or acts of fraud or misconduct could
28

Table of Contents
subject us to fines and penalties, loss of security clearance and suspension or debarment from contracting with government agencies, which could weaken our ability to win contracts and have a material adverse impact on our revenues and profits.
New or changing legal requirements, including those relating to climate change, could adversely affect our operating results.
Our business and results of operations could be affected by the passage of climate change, defense, environmental, infrastructure, trade and other laws, policies and regulations. For example, growing concerns about climate change may result in the imposition of additional environmental regulations. Legislation, international protocols or treaties, regulation or other restrictions on emissions could affect our clients, including those who (a) are involved in the exploration, production or refining of fossil fuels such as our energy and chemicals clients, (b) emit greenhouse gases through the combustion of fossil fuels, or (c) emit greenhouse gases through the mining, manufacture, utilization or production of materials or goods. Such legislation or restrictions could increase the costs of projects for us and our clients or, in some cases, prevent a project from going forward, thereby potentially reducing the need for our services, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. However, legislation and regulation regarding climate change could also increase the pace of development of carbon capture and storage projects, alternative transportation, alternative energy facilities, such as wind farms or nuclear reactors, or incentivize increased implementation of clean fuel projects, which could positively impact the demand for our services. As another example, the implementation of trade barriers, countervailing duties, or border taxes, or the addition, relaxation or repeal of laws, policies and regulations regarding the industries and sectors in which we work could result in a decline in demand for our services, or may make the manner in which we perform our services, especially from outside the United States, less cost efficient. Furthermore, changes to existing trade agreements may impact our business operations. We cannot predict when or whether any of these various legislative and regulatory proposals may become law or what their effect will be on us and our clients.
Past and future environmental, safety and health regulations could impose significant additional costs on us that reduce our profits.
We are subject to numerous environmental laws and health and safety regulations. Our projects can involve the handling of hazardous and other highly regulated materials, including nuclear and other radioactive materials, which, if improperly handled or disposed of, could subject us to civil and criminal liabilities. It is impossible to reliably predict the full nature and effect of judicial, legislative or regulatory developments relating to health and safety regulations and environmental protection regulations applicable to our operations. The applicable regulations, as well as the length of time available to comply with those regulations, continue to develop and change. The cost of complying with rulings and regulations, satisfying any environmental remediation requirements for which we are found responsible, or satisfying claims or judgments alleging personal injury, property damage or natural resource damages as a result of exposure to, or contamination by, hazardous materials, including as a result of commodities such as lead or asbestos-related products, could be substantial, may not be covered by insurance, could reduce our profits, and therefore, could materially impact our future operations.
Our company, along with our investment in NuScale, is subject to a number of regulations such as those from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and non-U.S. regulatory bodies, such as the International Atomic Energy Commission and the European Union, which can have a substantial effect on our nuclear operations and investments. Delays in receiving necessary approvals, permits or licenses, the failure to maintain sufficient compliance programs, and other problems encountered during construction (including changes to such regulatory requirements) could significantly increase our costs or have an adverse effect on our results of operations, our return on investments and our financial position.
A substantial portion of our business is generated either directly or indirectly as a result of federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations related to environmental matters. A reduction in the number or scope of these laws or regulations, or changes in government policies regarding the funding, implementation or enforcement of such laws and regulations, could significantly reduce the size of one of our markets and limit our opportunities for growth or reduce our revenue below current levels.
Risks Related to Mergers & Acquisitions and Strategic Plans
We cannot assure the successful implementation of our strategic and operational initiatives.
We have announced a number of strategic and operational initiatives designed to optimize costs and improve operational efficiency, including plans to divest our AMECO and Stork businesses, monetize surplus real estate and non-core investments, and rationalize resources and overhead across various geographies. Our ability to successfully execute these initiatives is subject to various risks and uncertainties, including regulatory intervention, which may negatively impact the realization of expected benefits. Our failure to realize the anticipated benefits, which may be due to our inability to execute,

competition, economic conditions, and other risks described herein, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Any acquisitions, dispositions or other investments are subject to various risks or uncertainties and may not be completed in accordance with the expected plans or anticipated time frame, or at all, and will involve significant time and expense, which could disrupt or adversely affect our business.
We have made and expect to continue to pursue selective acquisitions or dispositions of businesses, or investments in strategic business opportunities. We may be unable to locate suitable acquisitions or investments, or we may be unable to consummate any such transactions on terms and conditions acceptable to us. Acquisitions may bring us into businesses we have not previously conducted or jurisdictions where we have had little to no prior operations experience and thus expose us to additional business risks that are different from those we have traditionally experienced. We also may encounter difficulties identifying all significant risks during our due diligence activities or integrating acquisitions and successfully managing or achieving the growth we expect to experience from these acquisitions. We may invest in companies or businesses that fail, causing a loss of all or part of our investment.
Divesting businesses involves risks and uncertainties, such as the difficulty separating assets related to such businesses from the businesses we retain, employee distraction, the need to obtain regulatory approvals and other third-party consents, which potentially disrupts customer and vendor relationships, and the fact that we may be subject to additional tax obligations or loss of certain tax benefits. Such actions also involve significant costs and require time and attention of our management, which may divert attention from other business operations. Because of these challenges, as well as market conditions or other factors, anticipated divestitures may take longer or be costlier or generate fewer benefits than expected and may not be completed at all. If we are unable to complete the divestitures or to successfully transition divested businesses, our business and financial results could be negatively impacted. If we dispose of a business, we may not be able to successfully cause a buyer of a divested business to assume the liabilities of that business or, even if such liabilities are assumed, we may have difficulties enforcing our rights, contractual or otherwise, against the buyer. We may retain exposure on financial or performance guarantees and other contractual, employment, pension and severance obligations, and potential liabilities that may arise under law because of the disposition or the subsequent failure of an acquirer. As a result, performance by the divested businesses or other conditions outside of our control could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, the divestiture of any business could negatively impact our profitability because of losses that may result from such a sale, the loss of revenues or a decrease in cash flows. Following a divestiture, we may also have less diversity in our business and in the markets we serve, as well as in our client base.
We may be unable to successfully integrate acquisitions or investments we make into our businesses or capture the anticipated benefits of these acquisitions and investments.
Whenever we make an acquisition or investment, we have and will continue to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating or aligning the business practices and operations of companies we acquire or invest in. Difficulties we may encounter in the integration/alignment process include:
A delay in the integration or alignment of management teams, strategies, operations, products and services;
Diversion of the attention of management as a result of the acquisition or investment;
The consequences of a change in tax treatment, including the costs of integration/consolidation and compliance, and the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the acquisition/investment will not be realized;
Differences in corporate culture and management philosophies;
The ability to retain key personnel;
The challenges of integrating or aligning complex systems, technology, networks and other assets into or to be compatible with ours in a way that minimizes any adverse effects on the business; and
Potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses or delays associated with the acquisition or investment, including the costs to integrate or consolidate beyond current estimates.
Any of these factors could negatively affect our ability to maintain business relationships or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition or investment.

Risks Related to our Common Stock
In the event we issue additional equity securities, stockholders' ownership percentages would be diluted.
We may in the future issue additional equity securities to pay for potential acquisitions or to otherwise fund our corporate initiatives. If we do issue additional equity securities, the issuance may dilute our earnings per share and stockholders' percentage ownership.
Delaware law, our charter documents and our stockholder rights agreement may impede or discourage a takeover or change of control.
Fluor is a Delaware corporation. Various anti-takeover provisions under Delaware law impose impediments on the ability of others to acquire control of us, even if a change of control would be beneficial to our stockholders. In addition, certain provisions of our charters and bylaws may impede or discourage a takeover. For example:
stockholders may not act by written consent;
there are various restrictions on the ability of a stockholder to call a special meeting or to nominate a director for election; and
our Board of Directors can authorize the issuance of preferred shares.
These types of provisions in our charters and bylaws could also make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us, even if the acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders. Accordingly, stockholders may be limited in the ability to obtain a premium for their shares.
On March 24, 2020, our Board of Directors approved the adoption of a limited duration stockholder rights agreement and declared a dividend distribution of one preferred share purchase right on each outstanding share of our common stock. The rights are designed to ensure that all of our stockholders receive fair and equal treatment in the event of any proposed takeover of the company and to protect against abusive tactics to gain control of the company without paying all stockholders a premium for that control. The stockholder rights agreement would cause substantial dilution to any person or group that attempts to acquire us on terms not approved in advance by our Board of Directors and may have the effect of delaying, discouraging or preventing a change in control that might otherwise be beneficial to stockholders and might adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Item 7.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements.
Results of Operations
In early 2020, we decided to retain our government business, which had been included in Disc Ops since the third quarter of 2019. As a result, the government business is no longer reported as a discontinued operation for any period presented. Our plan to sell the AMECO equipment business remains unchanged and it remains reported as a discontinued operation. We expect to complete the sale of the AMECO equipment business within the first half of 2021. The assets and liabilities of the AMECO business are classified as held for sale for all periods presented.
In light of our decision to retain our government business in 2020, we had the following six reportable segments:
Energy & Chemicals
Mining & Industrial
Infrastructure & Power
Government
Diversified Services
Other
Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, we will operate through three business segments: Energy Solutions, Urban Solutions and Mission Solutions. Energy Solutions will focus on energy transition, chemicals and traditional oil and gas opportunities. Urban Solutions will focus on mining, metals, advanced technologies, manufacturing, life sciences, infrastructure and our professional staffing services. Mission Solutions will focus on delivering solutions to federal agencies across the U.S. government and to select international opportunities. Additionally, we are initiating plans to sell Stork.
During 2019, we approved and initiated a broad restructuring plan designed to optimize costs, improve operational efficiency and support long-term sustainable growth. These restructuring activities included the rationalization of resources, investments, real estate and overhead across various geographies. We also met with a number of our clients, subcontractors
33

and suppliers in an attempt to bring resolution to or get clarification on a variety of matters, including outstanding disputes and claims, pending change orders, schedule extensions, accounts receivable and other project close out items. The negotiations and agreements resulting from these meetings, as well as project developments during the second quarter, resulted in the recognition of significant charges across three segments, which are reflected in the results for 2019.

Our business has been adversely affected by the economic impacts of the outbreak of COVID-19 and the steep decline in oil prices that occurred in the early part of 2020. These events have created significant uncertainty and economic volatility and disruption, which have impacted and may continue to impact our business. We have experienced, and may continue to experience, reductions in demand for certain of our services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial condition or financial distress, as well as governmental budget constraints. Although we initially assessed our project estimates for COVID-19 during the first quarter of 2020, continued isolation of estimated COVID-19 effects became increasingly difficult to measure as 2020 progressed. Our estimates reflect our best assessment of project results inclusive of COVID-19 effects, which have been dynamic as our projects have seen changes in prevailing regulations as COVID cases crested and fell. These impacts may continue or worsen under prolonged stay-at-home, social distancing, travel restrictions and other similar orders or restrictions. Significant uncertainty still exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of these events.
Because of the foregoing matters, we performed interim impairment testing of our goodwill, intangible assets and investments. We also evaluated the impact of these events on our reserves for credit risk and the fair value of our assets held for sale.
During 2020, we recognized the following significant charges:
• $298 million for impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, investments and other assets;
• $60 million for current expected credit losses associated with Energy & Chemicals clients;
• $146 million for impairments of assets held for sale (included in Disc Ops), of which $12 million related to goodwill; as well as
• Significant forecast revisions for project positions due to COVID-19 related schedule delays and associated cost growth.
During 2019, we recognized charges (related to cumulative catch up adjustments and loss projects) totaling $839 million in the Energy & Chemicals, Infrastructure & Power and Other segments. We also recognized $533 million related to impairments, restructuring and other exit costs. Additionally, we settled the remaining obligations associated with our defined benefit pension plan in the United Kingdom and recognized a loss on pension settlement of $138 million during 2019. During 2018, we recognized charges totaling $417 million related to projects in the Energy & Chemicals, Infrastructure & Power and Other segments. These project charges were partially offset by a gain of $125 million from the sale of a joint venture interest in the United Kingdom. Earnings in 2018 also benefitted from the adoption of ASC 606 which increased earnings before taxes by $132 million, primarily in the Energy & Chemicals segment.
During 2020, consolidated revenue declined primarily due to volume declines on Energy & Chemicals and Mining & Industrial projects, many of which were completed or nearing completion. The revenue decline in 2020 was further compounded by COVID-19 and the decline in oil prices. For example, a large mining project was suspended for six months due to COVID-19 and the volume of work in the Diversified Services segment significantly declined as turnaround work was delayed and maintenance scopes reduced. During 2019, consolidated revenue declined primarily due to volume declines on Energy & Chemicals projects as well as the completion of a power restoration project in Puerto Rico in 2018 and three large power projects in 2019.
During 2020, total segment profit increased due to the project charges in the Energy & Chemicals, Infrastructure & Power and Other segments recognized in 2019 (discussed above). The increase in total segment profit in 2020 was diminished
35

Table of Contents
by the impact of COVID-19 on numerous projects in 2020. During 2019, total segment profit significantly declined due to the 2019 project charges in the Energy & Chemicals, Infrastructure & Power and Other segments.
The effective tax rate from continuing operations was (9.0%), (45.3%) and 44.9% for 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The 2020 effective tax rate was favorably impacted by a $125 million benefit due to the utilization of a 2019 net operating loss carryback as allowed under the CARES ACT enacted on March 27, 2020. This benefit was offset by a $149 million increase in valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets primarily in the U.S. and the Netherlands. The 2019 effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by $731 million in charges related to establishing valuation allowances to reduce net deferred tax assets in the U.S., the U.K. and Australia. The 2018 effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted due to a $79 million increase in valuation allowances to reduce certain deferred tax assets in the U.S., the Netherlands and Belgium.
Our results reported by foreign subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are affected by foreign currency volatility. When the U.S. dollar appreciates against the non-U.S. dollar functional currencies of these subsidiaries, our reported revenue, cost and earnings, after translation into U.S. dollars, are lower than what they would have been had the U.S. dollar depreciated against the same foreign currencies or if there had been no change in the exchange rates.
Our margins, in some cases, may be favorably or unfavorably impacted by a change in the amount of materials and customer-furnished materials, which are accounted for as pass-through costs.
The lack of broad based new awards could continue to put pressure on our future earnings streams, particularly in the Energy & Chemicals segment. Backlog included $1.8 billion for projects in a loss position as of December 31, 2020. The decline in backlog during 2020 and 2019 primarily resulted from new award activity being outpaced by work performed. During 2019, certain suspended contracts associated with our joint venture in Mexico were removed from backlog. Although backlog reflects business that is considered to be firm, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. Backlog is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate. Backlog differs from RUPO discussed elsewhere. Backlog includes the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under ongoing operations and maintenance contracts for the remainder of the current year renewal period plus up to three additional years if renewal is considered to be probable, while RUPO includes only the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under ongoing operations and maintenance contracts with definite terms and substantive termination provisions.
Impairment, Restructuring and Other Exit Costs
During 2019, we initiated a restructuring plan designed to optimize costs and improve operational efficiency. These efforts primarily relate to the rationalization of resources, investments, real estate and overhead across various geographies, as well as the liquidation of certain components of the AMECO business that are being excluded from sale. Our planned restructuring activities were substantially completed by the end of 2020. Restructuring costs totaled $8 million and $240 million during 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Information about our restructuring, which we believe is complete as of December 31, 2020, follows:
(in millions) Costs Incurred in 2020 Costs Incurred in

In the first quarter of 2021, we announced a plan to sell Stork. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, we expect Stork will be reported as a discontinued operation and the assets and liabilities of Stork will be classified as held for sale. Once classified as available for sale, Stork's assets will be subjected to a quarterly recoverability analysis.
Segment Operations
We provide professional services in the fields of engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication and modularization, operations, maintenance and asset integrity, as well as project management services, on a global basis and serve a diverse set of industries worldwide. We consider charges to include effects that negatively impact a project's gross margin, including negative adjustments to revenue and recognition of project losses.
Energy & Chemicals
Revenue in 2020 decreased compared to 2019 due to significant declines in the volume of execution activities for numerous upstream, downstream and chemicals projects nearing completion, partially offset by increased execution activity for an LNG project in Canada. Revenue in 2019 decreased compared to 2018 due to a significant decline in the volume of customer-furnished materials and project execution activities, combined with the impact of a lower volume of broad based new awards. The revenue decline in 2019 was also partially offset by increased execution activity for the LNG project.
Segment profit significantly increased during 2020 despite the adverse impacts of the recognition of reserves totaling $60 million for expected credit losses associated with certain joint venture clients, as well as margin diminution on a percentage-of-completion basis resulting from project positions taken with respect to COVID-19 related schedule delays and associated cost growth. The increase in segment profit during 2020 is primarily the result of charges taken during 2019, discussed below. Excluding these items, segment profit declined in 2020 due to the reduced execution activity of the upstream, downstream and chemicals projects discussed above, partially offset by the increase in activity for the LNG project and a decrease in overhead.
Segment profit in 2019 significantly decreased compared to 2018 as a result of charges taken during 2019 including $260 million for cost growth on an offshore project, $87 million for cost growth on two downstream projects and scope reductions on a large upstream project, $26 million for the write-off of pre-contract costs, $26 million on embedded foreign currency derivatives and $31 million from the resolution of close-out matters. Segment profit in 2018 was adversely impacted by charges of $133 million for cost growth on a completed, downstream project and $40 million for cost growth on the aforementioned offshore project.
The changes in segment profit margin in 2020 and 2019 were primarily attributable to the same factors that affected revenue and segment profit. Segment profit margin in 2020 was also adversely impacted by a shift from higher margin work in 2019 to lower margin work in 2020 in certain geographies.
No significant awards were booked in 2020 due to the impact of COVID-19 and declining oil prices on our customers' capital spend. New awards in 2019 included a downstream project in the United Kingdom as well as chemicals projects in China, India and on the U.S. gulf coast. New awards in 2018 included an LNG export facility in Canada as well as an engineering and procurement contract for a refinery in Texas.
The decline in backlog during 2020 resulted from the decline in new award activity and the de-recognition of a suspended downstream project. The decrease in backlog during 2019 resulted primarily from new award activity being outpaced by work performed as well as the removal of certain contracts associated with our joint venture in Mexico that were suspended during 2019.
We expect our Energy & Chemicals segment to benefit from opportunities in the chemicals and non-traditional oil and gas markets.

Mining & Industrial
Revenue decreased in 2020 compared to 2019 primarily due to a six month suspension during 2020 of a large mining project in South America due to COVID-19 and a decline in the volume of execution activities for a large life sciences project and two mining projects completed or nearing completion. These revenue declines were partially offset by increased execution activities on two advanced technologies projects as well as a mining project and a metals project, both in North America. Revenue increased in 2019 compared to 2018 primarily due to increased execution activities for several large mining projects as well as ramping up construction activity on the two advanced technologies projects.
Segment profit declined in 2020 compared to 2019 primarily due to a gain of $31 million recognized in 2019 resulting from a favorable resolution of a longstanding customer dispute on a mining project. Segment profit in 2020 was also adversely impacted by the decline in activity for the life sciences project and mining projects nearing completion as well as the mining project in South America that was impacted by COVID-19. The decrease in segment profit in 2020 was partially offset by a reduction in overhead expenses. Segment profit in 2019 increased compared to 2018 due to the increased volume of execution activities for the large mining projects and the two advanced technologies projects that drove the increase in revenue as well as the favorable resolution of the customer dispute. The decline in segment profit margin in 2020 and the increase in segment profit margin in 2019 was primarily the result of the favorable resolution of the customer dispute in 2019.
New awards in 2020 included a significant North American steel project as well as several front-end studies that we believe positions the segment well for follow-on EPC awards. New awards in 2019 included an advanced manufacturing project in the Netherlands. New awards in 2018 included a copper project in Peru, an iron ore replacement mine in Australia and a mine expansion project in Peru. The decrease in backlog during 2020 and 2019 primarily resulted from work performed outpacing new award activity.
We expect our mining business line to benefit from the growing global demand for copper and our advanced technologies and life sciences business line to benefit from the increasing demand for data storage facilities and biological facilities.
Infrastructure & Power
Revenue in 2020 increased compared to 2019 primarily driven by an increase in execution activities for several infrastructure projects, including a year-over-year increase on a rail project which was canceled in the third quarter of 2020. The increase in revenue during 2020 was partially offset by a decrease in execution activities for several infrastructure projects nearing completion. Revenue in 2019 decreased compared to 2018 primarily due to the substantial completion of the three large power projects during 2019. This decline was partially offset by increased project execution activities on several infrastructure projects. Revenue also reflects the adverse impact of various forecast revisions discussed below.
Segment profit in 2020 significantly improved compared to 2019 primarily due to forecast revisions on several power and infrastructure projects recognized in 2019 (discussed below). A positive settlement on a canceled rail project in 2020 was offset by charges for cost growth in the infrastructure legacy portfolio. Segment profit in 2019 significantly decreased compared to 2018 due to charges of $135 million for the settlement of client disputes and cost growth on certain close-out matters for the three power projects discussed above and $133 million resulting from late engineering changes, schedule-driven cost growth and negotiations with clients and subcontractors on pending change orders for several infrastructure projects. Segment profit in 2018 included $188 million in charges on one of the aforementioned power projects as a result of cost growth and a $125 million gain associated with the sale of a joint venture interest in the United Kingdom. The changes in segment profit margin in 2020 and 2019 were primarily attributable to the same factors impacting segment profit in those years. Lower margin contributions from certain infrastructure projects for which charges were recognized during 2020 and 2019 may continue to adversely impact near term segment profit margin. We expect approximately 35% of the segment's revenue in 2021 will be generated from zero margin projects as of December 31, 2020.
New awards in 2020 included a highway project in Texas. New awards in 2019 included a road project in Texas and a rail project in Chicago. New awards in 2018 included an international bridge project and the LAX Automated People Mover project.
The decrease in backlog during 2020 was primarily due to a decline in new award activity in part driven by more selectivity in pursuing projects as well as delayed procurements. The decrease in backlog during 2019 was primarily due to work performed and project cancellations outpacing new award activity. Backlog included $1.5 billion for projects in a loss position as of December 31, 2020.
We believe our infrastructure business is well positioned for select opportunities in the U.S. due to urbanization and an aging infrastructure system. These opportunities may be enhanced with the introduction of a federal infrastructure spending bill.

Government
Revenue in 2020 decreased compared to 2019 primarily due to the completion of a nuclear decommissioning project in 2019 as well a decline in work performed for FEMA. The decrease in 2020 revenue was further driven by the recognition of service fee revenue in 2019 upon the favorable settlement of project claims on two cancelled nuclear power projects in the U.S. The decline in revenue in 2020 was partially offset by increased project execution activities at the Strategic Petroleum Reserve as well as our DOE sites. Revenue in 2019 decreased compared to 2018 substantially driven by the completion of a power restoration project in Puerto Rico in 2018 as well as a decrease in project execution activities for a logistics assistance program in Afghanistan, partially offset by an increase in execution activities at the Savannah River DOE site and the favorable settlement of the two nuclear power plant projects in 2019.
The decrease in segment profit in 2020 was substantially driven by the favorable settlement of the two nuclear power plant projects in 2019 as well as the completion of the nuclear decommissioning project in 2019 and the decline in FEMA work in 2020. Segment profit in 2020 was also adversely impacted by COVID-19, particularly as it relates to estimated fee recoveries on certain projects. The increase in segment profit in 2019 was due to the favorable settlement of the two nuclear power plant projects. The changes in segment profit margin in 2020 and 2019 were primarily attributable to the same factors that affected revenue and segment profit.
New awards in 2020, 2019 and 2018 included one-year extensions of the logistics assistance contract in Afghanistan and the Savannah River environmental management contract. New awards in 2018 also included a five-year extension of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve contract and a thirty-month extension at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant site.
The decline in backlog during 2020 and 2019 resulted from new award activity being outpaced by work performed. Backlog included $1.0 billion and $1.9 billion of unfunded government contracts as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Diversified Services
As discussed elsewhere, most of the operating results of our AMECO equipment business are included in Disc Ops. The retained portion of the AMECO operations have been or are in the process of being liquidated but do not meet the qualifications of Disc Ops. These retained operations remain in the Diversified Services segment.
Revenue in 2020 decreased compared to 2019 primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 and declining oil prices resulting in lower volumes in the Stork business and the staffing business as turnaround work is delayed and maintenance scopes reduced. Revenue declines in 2020 were further driven by reduced volume from the winding down of our AMECO operations in Mexico. Revenue in 2019 decreased compared to 2018 primarily due to lower volumes in the Stork business in Europe, the cancellation of a large operations and maintenance project in North America in 2018 and scope reductions on a maintenance project in Australia. The decline in 2019 revenue was further driven by scope reductions on a large power services project in the U.S. and lower volumes at the AMECO equipment business in Mexico. The revenue declines in 2019 were partially offset by higher contributions from the staffing business in North America and Europe.
Segment profit in 2020 remained flat compared to 2019. The lower volumes in the Stork business and the staffing business were offset by a reduction in expenses related to close out activities at our AMECO operations in Mexico as well as a reduction in overhead costs. Segment profit in 2019 decreased compared to 2018 primarily driven by the above mentioned reduced volumes in the operations and maintenance business, including higher margin specialty services, and the closure of the AMECO equipment business in Mexico. The decline in segment profit in 2019 was further driven by charges related to negotiations with clients and joint venture partners. The declines in segment profit margin in 2020 and 2019 were primarily due to the same factors affecting segment profit.
The decrease in backlog during 2020 was primarily due to the postponement of new maintenance work due to COVID-19 and the decline in oil prices. The increase in backlog during 2019 was primarily due to a large award for the power services business. Our equipment and staffing businesses do not report backlog or new awards.
Other
Other includes the operations of NuScale, as well as two lump-sum projects including a plant for which we serve as a subcontractor to a commercial client (the "Radford" project) and a weapons storage and maintenance facility (the "Warren" project). The Radford and Warren projects continue to project losses as of December 31, 2020.
Revenue in 2020 increased compared to 2019 due to increased execution activities for both the Radford and Warren projects.
39

Table of Contents
Segment loss in 2020 improved due to the recognition of significant charges on the Radford and Warren projects in 2019. Forecast revisions in 2019 resulted in charges of $59 million on the Warren project and $83 million on the Radford project for various engineering and cost growth associated with the facilities. Segment loss in 2018 of $56 million was driven by forecast revisions on the Radford project. Our forecast for both projects is based upon our assessment of the probable cost to finish the projects as well as our assessment of the recovery of unapproved change orders. The Radford project is substantially complete with systems turnover to the client expected in the first quarter of 2021.
NuScale expenses, net of qualified reimbursable expenses, included in the determination of segment loss, were $84 million, $66 million and $74 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in NuScale costs during 2020 was due to an increase in research and development activities as NuScale received final design certification by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission in August of 2020. Capital contributions by NuScale's NCI holders of $9 million, $49 million and $2 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, reduced the need for additional funding from Fluor.

The increase in compensation expense in 2020 was primarily due to higher stock price driven compensation, as our stock price increased from the date of grant to the end of the year. The decrease in compensation expense in 2019 was primarily due to lower stock price and performance driven compensation. During 2020 and 2019, most major foreign currencies strengthened against the U.S. dollar resulting in foreign currency exchange losses. In 2018, most major foreign currencies weakened against the U.S. dollar resulting in foreign currency exchange gains. The decrease in other expense in 2020 was driven by the realization of our restructuring efforts and lower travel costs due to COVID-19.
The increase in net interest expense during 2020 was primarily attributable to a decrease in interest income driven by lower interest rates in 2020. The decrease in net interest expense during 2019 was primarily attributable to an increase in interest income from time deposits in 2019 as well as a payment made in 2018 for a "make-whole" premium associated with the redemption of the 2021 Notes.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our financial statements. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on information available through the date of the issuance of the financial statements and, accordingly, actual results in future periods could differ from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements apply to the following critical accounting policies:
Revenue Recognition for Long-Term Contracts. We recognize our engineering and construction contract revenue over time as we provide services to satisfy our performance obligations. We generally use the cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion measure of progress as it best depicts how control transfers to our clients. The cost-to-cost approach measures progress towards completion based on the ratio of contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Use of the cost-to-cost measure of progress requires us to prepare estimates of total expected revenue and cost to complete our projects.
40

Table of Contents
Due to the nature of our industry, there is significant complexity in our estimation of total expected revenue and cost, for which we must make significant judgments. Our contracts with our customers may contain award fees, incentive fees, liquidated damages or other provisions that can either increase or decrease the contract price to arrive at estimated revenue. These variable amounts generally are awarded upon achievement of certain performance metrics, program milestones or cost targets and can be based upon customer discretion. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount to which we expect to be entitled. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable we will realize that amount. Our estimates of variable consideration and our determination of its inclusion in project revenue for accounting purposes are based on an assessment of our anticipated performance and other information that may be available to us.
At a project level, we have specific practices and procedures to review our estimate of total revenue and cost. Each project team reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations, which impact the project’s accounting outcome. As part of this process, the project team reviews information such as any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule and identified risks and opportunities. The accuracy of our revenue and profit recognition in a given period depends on the accuracy of our project estimates, which can change from period to period for factors such as:
Complexity in original design;
Extent of changes from original design;
Different site conditions than assumed in our bid;
The productivity, availability and skill level of labor;
Weather conditions when executing a project;
The technical maturity of the technologies involved;
Length of time to complete the project;
Availability and cost of equipment and materials;
Subcontractor and joint venture partner performance;
Expected costs of warranties; and
Our ability to recover for additional contract costs.
We recognize changes in contract estimates on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the changes are identified. Such changes in contract estimates can result in the recognition of revenue in a current period for performance obligations which were satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods. Changes in contract estimates may also result in the reversal of previously recognized revenue if the current estimate adversely differs from the previous estimate. If we estimate that a project will have costs in excess of revenue, we recognize the total loss in the period it is identified.
Variable Consideration. The nature of our contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration, including claims, unpriced change orders, award and incentive fees, liquidated damages and penalties. We consider variable consideration in the development of our project forecasts so that our forecasted revenue reflects the amount of consideration we expect to be probable of recovering without a future significant reversal. We estimate the amount of revenue attributable to variable consideration using the expected value method (i.e., the sum of probability-weighted amounts) or the most likely amount method, whichever offers better prediction. Significant judgments are required in developing estimates for variable consideration.
Fair Value Measurements. We are often required to use fair value measurement techniques with inputs that require the use of estimates and involve significant judgment. These circumstances include:
Goodwill impairment testing of reporting units when quantitative analysis is deemed necessary
Impairment testing of intangible assets when impairment indicators are present
Impairment testing of investments as part of other than temporary impairment assessments when impairment indicators are present
Fair value assessments of businesses held for sale that are reported at fair value less cost to sell
Purchase price allocations for acquired businesses
When performing quantitative fair value or impairment evaluations, we estimate the fair value of our assets by considering the results of either or both income-based and market-based valuation approaches. Under the income approach, we prepare a discounted cash flow valuation model using recent forecasts and compare the estimated fair value of each asset to its carrying value. Cash flow forecasts are discounted using the appropriate weighted-average cost of capital at the date of evaluation. The weighted-average cost of capital is comprised of the cost of equity and the cost of debt with a weighting for each that reflects our current capital structure. Preparation of long-term forecasts involve significant judgments involving consideration of our backlog, expected future awards, customer attrition, working capital assumptions, and general market trends and conditions. Significant changes in these forecasts or any valuation assumptions, such as the discount rate selected, could affect the estimated fair value of our assets and could result in impairment expenses. Under the market approach, we
41

Table of Contents
consider market information such as multiples of comparable publicly traded companies and/or completed sales transactions to develop or validate our fair value conclusions, when appropriate and available.
Due to the impact of COVID-19 and the decline in oil prices in 2020, we performed interim impairment testing of our goodwill, intangibles and certain other investments and recognized impairment expenses during the first quarter of 2020 of $169 million, $27 million and $86 million, respectively. All other factors being equal, a one hundred basis point change in the discount rates used in these valuations would change the fair value of these assets by $47 million, $2 million and $3 million, respectively.
During the third quarter of 2019, we performed quantitative testing of our goodwill, intangibles and other investments. The majority of our goodwill resides in our Diversified Services reporting unit. Based on the testing performed, the fair value of the Diversified Services reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill, by 20%. All other factors being equal, a one hundred basis point increase in the discount rate used in the valuation would have resulted in its fair value exceeding its carrying value by 7%. During the third quarter of 2019, we recognized impairment charges of $257 million related to certain investments and $34 million related to customer relationship intangible assets. All other factors being equal, a one hundred basis point change in the discount rates used in these valuations would have affected these impairments by $20 million and $4 million, respectively.
Restructuring Accruals. We recognize and accrue restructuring related termination benefits when the recognition criteria under GAAP have been met, depending on the nature of the termination benefit. Recognition of termination benefits requires the use of estimates in determining the expected termination benefits payable, when they are probable of being realized and can be reasonably estimated. Our estimates consider the number of employees that we expect will be eligible to receive the benefit and the amount of benefit potentially payable to each employee based on either the terms of the plan or statutory entitlement.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Our liquidity is provided by available cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, cash generated from operations, capacity under our credit facility and, when necessary, access to the capital markets. We have both committed and uncommitted lines of credit available for revolving loans and letters of credit. We believe that for at least the next 12 months, cash generated from operations, along with our unused credit capacity and cash position, is sufficient to support operating requirements. However, we regularly review our sources and uses of liquidity and may pursue opportunities to increase our liquidity position.
In February 2021, we entered into an amended and restated $1.65 billion credit facility which matures in February 2023 and replaces the now terminated $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facilities. The amended credit facility contains customary financial and restrictive covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.65 to 1.00, a limitation on the aggregate amount of debt of the greater of $750 million or €750 million for our subsidiaries, and a minimum liquidity threshold, as defined in the amended credit facility, of $1.5 billion which may be reduced to $1.25 billion upon the repayment of debt. If the amended credit facility had been in place as of December 31, 2020, our financial covenants would have limited our further borrowings to approximately $934 million. If there are future losses, the amount of available credit capacity under our committed facility may be further reduced.
As of December 31, 2020, letters of credit totaling $418 million were outstanding under our predecessor lines of credit. There were no borrowings outstanding under these facilities as of December 31, 2020. These credit facilities also contained customary financial and restrictive covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that could not exceed 0.6 to 1.0.
Cash and cash equivalents combined with marketable securities were $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2020 and $2.0 billion as of December 31, 2019. Cash and cash equivalents are held in numerous accounts throughout the world to fund our global project execution activities. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents amounted to $984 million and $944 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents exclude deposits of U.S. legal entities that are either swept into overnight, offshore accounts or invested in offshore, short-term time deposits, to which there is unrestricted access.
42

Table of Contents
In evaluating our liquidity needs, we consider cash and cash equivalents held by our consolidated variable interest entities (joint ventures and partnerships). These amounts (which totaled $655 million and $393 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively) were not necessarily readily available for general purposes. We also consider the extent to which client advances (which totaled $125 million and $69 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively) are likely to be sustained or consumed over the near term for project execution activities and the cash flow requirements of our various foreign operations. In some cases, it may not be financially efficient to move cash and cash equivalents between countries due to statutory dividend limitations and/or adverse tax consequences. We did not consider any cash to be permanently reinvested outside the U.S. as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, other than unremitted earnings required to meet our working capital and long-term investment needs in non-U.S. foreign jurisdictions where we operate.

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from our EPC activities and are affected by changes in working capital associated with such activities. Working capital levels vary from period to period and are primarily affected by our volume of work and the billing schedules on our projects. These levels are also impacted by the stage of completion and commercial terms of engineering and construction projects, as well as our execution of our projects compared to their budget. Working capital requirements also vary by project and the payments terms agreed to with our clients, vendors and subcontractors. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress. Additionally, certain projects receive advance payments from clients. A typical trend for our projects is to have higher cash balances during the initial phases of execution due to deposits paid to us which then diminish toward the end of the construction phase. As a result, our cash position is reduced as customer advances are utilized, unless they are replaced by advances on other projects. We maintain cash reserves and borrowing facilities to provide additional working capital in the event that a project’s net operating cash outflows exceed its available cash balances.

Table of Contents
During 2020, consolidated working capital decreased. Specific factors related to the change in working capital include:
Decreases in accounts receivable which resulted from normal billing and collections for several projects in the Infrastructure & Power, Government and Diversified Services segments.
Decreases in contract assets which resulted from normal project execution activities for several projects in the Energy & Chemicals, Mining & Industrial, and Diversified Services segments.
During 2019, working capital significantly decreased. Specific factors related to the change in working capital include:
Decreases in accounts receivable which resulted primarily from normal billing and collections for several projects in the Mining & Industrial segment as well as the LOGCAP IV program in Afghanistan.
Decreases in contract assets which resulted primarily from normal project execution activities for several projects in the Energy & Chemicals, Infrastructure & Power and Government segments.
Excluding the non-cash impact of adopting ASC 606, working capital increased during 2018. Specific factors related to the change in working capital include:
Increases in contract assets which resulted primarily from normal project execution activities on a large mining project and several infrastructure projects, partially offset by decreases in contract assets on several Energy & Chemicals projects.
A decrease in contract liabilities in the Energy & Chemicals segment, which resulted primarily from normal project execution activities on several large projects.
An increase in accounts payable in the Mining & Industrial segment, which resulted from normal invoicing activities on a large mining project.
A decrease in other current assets, driven primarily by the receipt of income tax refunds in 2018.
The decrease in operating cash flow in 2020 and the increase in operating cash flow in 2019 resulted primarily from changes in working capital balances.
During the fourth quarter of 2020, we entered into a settlement agreement with a client in connection with a dispute over client-imposed delays and cost overruns on a cancelled rail project in Maryland. We received an initial settlement payment of $116 million in December 2020 and we are contractually owed an additional $150 million to be paid no later than December 2021.
During 2020, we paid approximately $40 million in legal and accounting fees associated with the internal review that was completed in December 2020.
We contributed $130 million, $115 million and $150 million into our DC plans during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $25 million, $15 million and $45 million into our DB plans during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. We expect to contribute up to $12 million to our DB plans in 2021, which is expected to be in excess of the minimum funding required.
All periods included the operations of NuScale, which are primarily for research and development activities associated with the licensing and commercialization of small modular nuclear reactor technology. NuScale expenses included in the determination of segment profit were $84 million, $66 million and $74 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. NuScale expenses for 2020, 2019 and 2018 were reported net of qualified reimbursable expenses of $71 million, $56 million and $62 million, respectively. Capital contributions by NuScale's NCI holders of $9 million, $49 million and $2 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, reduced the need for additional funding from Fluor.
Investing Activities
We hold cash in bank deposits and marketable securities which are governed by our investment policy. This policy focuses on, in order of priority, the preservation of capital, maintenance of liquidity and maximization of yield. These investments may include money market funds, bank deposits placed with highly-rated financial institutions, repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized by U.S. Government-related securities, high-grade commercial paper and high quality short-term and medium-term fixed income securities.

Table of Contents
Capital expenditures are primarily related to construction equipment associated with equipment operations now included in Disc Ops, as well as expenditures for facilities and investments in information technology. Proceeds from the disposal of property, plant and equipment are primarily related to the disposal of construction equipment associated with the equipment business in Disc Ops.
During 2020, we sold substantially all of the assets of our AMECO equipment business in Jamaica as well as 100% of our interest in an equipment rental business in Europe. The operations of the AMECO business in Jamaica were included in Disc Ops through the date of sale. Also in 2020, we sold our interests in two infrastructure joint ventures in the Netherlands that are currently in the operations and maintenance phase of the contract and one infrastructure joint venture in the U.S. In 2018, we sold our interest in a joint venture in the United Kingdom.
Investments in unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in 2020 and 2019 included capital contributions to two infrastructure joint ventures in the United States. Investments in 2018 included capital contributions to an infrastructure joint venture in the United States as well as investments in COOEC Fluor. We completed our final funding commitment to COOEC Fluor of $26 million during 2021.
Financing Activities
We have a common stock repurchase program, authorized by the Board of Directors, to purchase shares in the open market or privately negotiated transactions at our discretion. In 2018, we repurchased 1,097,126 shares of common stock under our current and previously authorized stock repurchase programs. As of December 31, 2020, 10,513,093 shares could still be purchased under the existing stock repurchase program.
Quarterly cash dividends were typically paid during the month following the quarter in which they were declared.
Therefore, dividends declared in the fourth quarter of 2019 were paid in the first quarter of 2020. Quarterly cash dividends of
$0.21 per share were declared in 2018 and in the first, second and third quarters of 2019. Quarterly cash dividends
of $0.10 per share were declared in the fourth quarter of 2019. We suspended our dividend during April 2020. The
payment and level of future cash dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors.
In August 2018, we issued $600 million of 4.250% Senior Notes (the “2028 Notes”) due September 15, 2028 and received proceeds of $595 million, net of underwriting discounts. Interest on the 2028 Notes is payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on March 15, 2019.
In September 2018, we used a portion of the proceeds from the 2028 Notes to fully redeem our $500 million 3.375%
Senior Notes (the “2021 Notes”) due September 15, 2021. The redemption price of $503 million was equal to 100 percent of
the principal amount of the 2011 Notes plus a “make-whole” premium of $3 million.

Other borrowings represent short-term bank loans and other financing arrangements associated with Stork. During the second and third quarters of 2018, we issued commercial paper to meet our short-term liquidity needs. All of the outstanding commercial paper was repaid in October 2018.
Distributions paid to holders of NCI represent cash outflows to partners of consolidated partnerships or joint ventures created primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. Distributions in 2020 and 2019 primarily related to a mining joint venture project in Chile. Distributions in 2018 primarily related to transportation joint venture projects in the United States. Capital contributions by NCI in 2020 related to three infrastructure joint ventures in the United States. Capital contributions by NCI in 2019 primarily related to initial investments from new partners in NuScale.
Effect of Exchange Rate Changes on Cash
During 2019, most major foreign currencies strengthened against the U.S. dollar resulting in unrealized translation gains of $101 million of which $10 million related to cash held by foreign subsidiaries. During 2018, most major foreign currencies weakened against the U.S. dollar resulting in unrealized translation losses of $117 million of which $62 million related to cash held by foreign subsidiaries. The cash held in foreign currencies will primarily be used for project-related expenditures in those currencies, and therefore our exposure to exchange gains and losses is generally mitigated.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Letters of Credit
As of December 31, 2020, letters of credit totaling $418 million were outstanding under committed lines of credit and letters of credit totaling $862 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit. Letters of credit are provided in the ordinary course of business primarily to indemnify our clients if we fail to perform our obligations under our contracts. Surety bonds may be used as an alternative to letters of credit.
45

Table of Contents
Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various agreements providing performance assurances and guarantees to our clients. These agreements are entered into primarily to support project execution commitments. The performance guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion of the project to a period extending beyond contract completion. The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed, was estimated to be $14 billion as of December 31, 2020. Amounts that may be required to be paid in excess of estimated cost to complete contracts in progress are not estimable. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed. For lump-sum contracts, the performance guarantee amount is the cost to complete the contracted work, less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete. In those cases where costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract, we may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, co-venturers, subcontractors or vendors for claims. The performance guarantee obligation was not material as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate us to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements generally require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower’s obligation.
Inflation
Although inflation and cost trends affect our results, we mitigate these trends by seeking to fix our cost at or soon after the time of award on lump-sum or fixed-price contracts or to recover cost increases in cost reimbursable contracts.
Variable Interest Entities
We frequently form joint ventures or partnerships with others primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. We assess our joint ventures and partnerships at inception to determine if any meet the qualifications of a VIE as defined in GAAP. If a joint venture or partnership is a VIE and we are the primary beneficiary, the joint venture or partnership is consolidated and our partners' interests are recognized as NCI. Additional discussion of our VIEs may be found in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 7A.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Cash and marketable securities are deposited with major banks throughout the world. Such deposits are placed with high quality institutions and the amounts invested in any single institution are limited to the extent possible in order to minimize concentration of counterparty credit risk. Marketable securities may consist of time deposits, registered money market funds, U.S. agency securities, U.S. Treasury securities, commercial paper, non-U.S. government securities and corporate debt securities. We have not incurred any credit risk losses related to deposits in cash or investments in marketable securities.
Certain of our contracts are subject to foreign currency risk. We limit exposure to foreign currency fluctuations in most of our engineering and construction contracts through provisions that require client payments in currencies corresponding to the currency in which cost is incurred. As a result, we generally do not need to hedge foreign currency cash flows for contract work performed. However, in cases where revenue and expenses are not denominated in the same currency, we may hedge our exposure, if material and if an efficient market exists, as discussed below.
We utilize derivative instruments to mitigate certain financial exposures, including currency and oil price risk associated with engineering and construction contracts, currency risk associated with monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies and risk associated with interest rate volatility. As of December 31, 2020, we had total gross notional amounts of $977 million of foreign currency contracts (primarily related to the Canadian Dollar, Chinese Yuan, British Pound, Euro, Indian Rupee and Philippine Peso) and $28 million of commodity contracts. The foreign currency and commodity contracts are of varying duration, none of which extend beyond December 2024. Our historical gains and losses associated with foreign currency contracts have typically been immaterial, and have largely mitigated the exposures being hedged. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.
Our results reported by foreign subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are also affected by foreign currency volatility. When the U.S. dollar appreciates against the non-U.S. dollar functional currencies of these subsidiaries, our reported revenue, cost and earnings, after translation into U.S. dollars, are lower than what they would have been had the U.S. dollar depreciated against the same foreign currencies or if there had been no change in the exchange rates.

Table of Contents
Our long-term debt obligations typically carry a fixed-rate coupon, and therefore, our exposure to interest rate risk is not material.
Item 8.    Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
The information required by this Item is submitted as a separate section of this Form 10-K as described in Item 15. 
Item 9.    Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A.    Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As defined in Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures. These controls and procedures should be designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in 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, and that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on their evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2020.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate ICFR that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP.
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our ICFR as of December 31, 2020 based upon the framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO 2013) and concluded that our ICFR was effective.

Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our ICFR. Their report follows this management report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As disclosed in Part II, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures in our 2019 10-K, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2019 due to the existence of material weakness in our ICFR. Material weakness describes a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in ICFR, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
During 2020, management implemented several remediations to address the material weakness by:
Taking personnel actions, including separations, for individuals involved in projects associated with the material weaknesses
Establishing additional monitoring procedures to help ensure that our policies and procedures are consistently followed at the project level, including enhanced requirements for business line approval and supporting documentation
Reinforcing existing policies, including those policies that are critical to the generation of accounting information, to provide further assurance that the financial statements are subject to additional project-level controls; and
Conducting expanded training on ethical behavior and internal certification processes.

Except for the changes made in connection with our implementation of the remediation efforts discussed above, there have been no changes in our ICFR during the fourth quarter of 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our ICFR.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Fluor Corporation

Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited Fluor Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Fluor Corporation (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of Fluor Corporation as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”) and our report dated February 26, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

Fluor Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Fluor Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to Fluor Corporation in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Fluor Corporation
Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Fluor Corporation (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements“). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 26, 2021 expressed an unmodified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Estimation of the Fair Value of Goodwill and Intangibles
Description of the Matter
As more fully described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, certain of the Company’s businesses were adversely affected by the economic impacts of the steep decline in oil prices and the outbreak of COVID-19. These events caused significant uncertainty, economic volatility and disruption that affected certain of the Company’s operations, and the Company’s impairment tests of its goodwill and intangible assets. As a result of the impairment tests, the Company recognized a $195 million impairment loss related to goodwill and certain intangible customer relationships within the Diversified Services reporting unit, which is the amount by which the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value of these assets.

Auditing management’s assessment of impairment involved a high degree of subjectivity due to the significant estimation uncertainty related to assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the reporting units of goodwill and intangible assets. When estimating the fair value of the reporting units for purposes of testing goodwill for impairment, significant assumptions used in management’s assessments included revenue growth rates, expected cash outflows, terminal growth rates and discount rates. When estimating the fair value of intangible assets for purposes of testing for impairment, significant assumptions used in management’s assessments included revenue growth rates, expected cash outflows, royalty rates, attrition rate and discount rates. The aforementioned assumptions are affected by expectations about future market or economic conditions that materially impact the fair value of the reporting units as well as intangible assets.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company's processes to estimate the fair value of the Company’s reporting units of goodwill and intangible assets. This included controls over management's review of the significant assumptions underlying the fair value estimates.

Our testing of the Company's estimates of fair value included, among other procedures, evaluating the significant assumptions as discussed above. For example, we compared the significant assumptions to current industry and economic trends and historical performance, performed sensitivity analyses of the significant assumptions to evaluate the change in the fair value estimates that would result from changes in the assumptions and recalculated management's estimates. We also involved our valuation specialists to assist in our evaluation of key assumptions, which included terminal growth rates, royalty rates, attrition rate, and the discount rates used in the fair value estimates.

Long-term revenue recognition on engineering and construction contracts
Description of the Matter
As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes engineering and construction contract revenue over time, as performance obligations are satisfied, due to the continuous transfer of control to the customer, using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, based primarily on contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Revenue recognition under this method is judgmental, particularly on lump-sum contracts, as it requires the Company to prepare estimates of total contract revenue and total contract costs, including costs to complete in-process contracts.

Auditing the Company’s estimates of total contract revenue and costs used to recognize revenue on engineering and construction contracts involved significant auditor judgment, as it required the evaluation of subjective factors such as assumptions related to project schedule and completion, forecasted labor, material and subcontract costs and variable consideration estimates related to incentive fees, unpriced changes orders and contractual disputes and claims. These assumptions involved significant management judgment, which affects the measurement of revenue recognized by the Company.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the estimation process that affect revenue recognized on engineering and construction contracts. This included controls over management’s monitoring and review of project costs and variable consideration estimates, including the Company’s procedures to validate the completeness and accuracy of data used to determine the estimates.

To evaluate the Company’s contract estimates related to revenue recognized on engineering and construction contracts, we selected a sample of projects and, among other procedures, obtained and inspected the contract agreements, amendments and change orders to test the existence of customer arrangements and understand the scope and pricing of the related contracts; performed site-visits for certain contracts to observe progress; observed selected contract review meetings, inspected presentations prepared by management and interviewed contract team personnel to obtain an understanding of the status of operational performance and progress on the related contracts; evaluated the Company’s estimated revenue and costs to complete by obtaining and analyzing supporting documentation of management’s estimates of variable consideration and contract costs, including external letters from legal counsel supporting the Company’s legal basis related to certain contractual matters including contractual disputes; and compared contract profitability estimates in the current year to historical estimates and actual performance.

FLUOR CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Description of Business
Fluor Corporation (“we”, “us”, “our” or “the company”) is a holding company that owns the stock of a number of subsidiaries, as well as interests in joint ventures. Acting through these entities, we are one of the largest professional services firms providing engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication and modularization, operations, maintenance and asset integrity, as well as project management services, on a global basis. We provide services to our clients in a diverse set of industries worldwide including oil and gas, chemicals and petrochemicals, mining and metals, infrastructure, life sciences, advanced manufacturing and advanced technologies. We are also a service provider to the U.S. federal government and governments abroad; and, we perform operations, maintenance and asset integrity activities globally for major industrial clients.
We had the following six reportable segments as of December 31, 2020:
Energy & Chemicals
Mining & Industrial
Infrastructure & Power
Government
Diversified Services
Other
The Energy & Chemicals segment focuses on opportunities in the upstream, midstream, downstream, chemical, petrochemical, offshore and onshore oil and gas production, LNG and pipeline markets. This segment has long served a broad spectrum of industries offering a full range of design, engineering, procurement, construction, fabrication and project management services.
The Mining & Industrial segment provides design, engineering, procurement, construction and project management services to the mining and metals, life sciences, advanced manufacturing and advanced technologies sectors.
The Infrastructure & Power segment provides design, engineering, procurement, construction and project management services to the transportation and power sectors.
The Government segment provides engineering and construction services, logistics and life-support, contingency operations support, management, mission operations, environmental remediation and decommissioning to the U.S. government and governments abroad.
The Diversified Services segment provides a wide array of asset maintenance, asset integrity and staffing services around the world. Most of the operating results of our AMECO equipment business previously included in Diversified Services are now included in discontinued operations. Certain operations of AMECO, primarily in Mexico, are in the process of being liquidated and did not meet the qualifications of discontinued operations. These retained operations will remain in the Diversified Services segment until their liquidation.
Other includes the operations of NuScale, as well as two lump-sum projects including a plant for which we serve as a subcontractor to a commercial client (the "Radford" project) and a weapons storage and maintenance facility (the "Warren" project). The Radford project is substantially complete with systems turnover to the client expected in the first quarter of 2021.
In the first quarter of 2020, we decided to retain our government business, which had previously been included in Disc Ops. As a result, the government business is no longer reported as a discontinued operation for any period presented. Our plan to sell the AMECO equipment business remains unchanged and it remains reported as a discontinued operation. We expect to complete the sale of the AMECO equipment business within the first half of 2021. The assets and liabilities of the AMECO business are classified as held for sale for all periods presented.
In the first quarter of 2021, we announced a plan to sell Stork, which we expect will be reported as a discontinued operation beginning with the first quarter of 2021.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2.    Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of Fluor Corporation and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions of consolidated subsidiaries are eliminated. Certain amounts disclosed in 2019 and 2018 have been reclassified to conform to the 2020 presentation, which includes presenting the operations of the government business in Cont Ops. Management has evaluated all material events occurring subsequent to December 31, 2020 through the filing date of the 2020 10-K.
We frequently form joint ventures or partnerships with others primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. If a joint venture or partnership is a VIE and we are the primary beneficiary, the joint venture or partnership is consolidated and our partners' interests are recognized as NCI. As is customary in our industry, for other construction partnerships and joint ventures, we generally recognize our proportionate share of revenue, cost and profit and use the one-line equity method for the investment. In other instances, the cost and equity methods of accounting are used, depending on our respective ownership interest and amount of influence on the entity, as well as other factors. At times, we also execute projects through collaborative arrangements for which we recognize our relative share of revenue and cost.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. These estimates are based on information available through the date of the issuance of the financial statements. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. For our international subsidiaries, the functional currency is typically the currency of the primary economic environment in which each subsidiary operates. Translation gains and losses are recorded in OCI. Gains and losses from remeasuring foreign currency transactions into the functional currency are included in earnings.
Revenue Recognition
Engineering and construction contracts. We recognize engineering and construction contract revenue over time as we provide services to satisfy our performance obligations. We generally use the cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion measure of progress as it best depicts how control transfers to our clients. The cost-to-cost approach measures progress towards completion based on the ratio of contract cost incurred to date compared to total estimated contract cost. Engineering and construction contracts are generally accounted for as a single unit of account (a single performance obligation) and are not segmented between types of services on a single project. Cost of revenue includes an allocation of depreciation and amortization. Where applicable, customer-furnished materials, labor and equipment and subcontractor materials, labor and equipment, are included in revenue and cost of revenue when management believes that we are acting as a principal rather than as an agent (i.e., we integrate the materials, labor and equipment into the deliverables promised to the customer). Customer-furnished materials are only included in revenue and cost when the contract includes construction activity and we have visibility into the amount the customer is paying for the materials or there is a reasonable basis for estimating the amount. We recognize revenue, but not profit, on certain uninstalled materials that are not specifically produced, fabricated, or constructed for a project. Revenue on these uninstalled materials is recognized when the cost is incurred and control is transferred. Changes to total estimated contract cost or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined as assessed at the contract level. Pre-contract costs are expensed as incurred unless they are expected to be recovered from the client. Project mobilization costs are generally charged to project costs as incurred when they are an integrated part of the performance obligation being transferred to the client. Customer payments on engineering and construction contracts are typically due within 30 to 45 days of billing, depending on the contract.
Service contracts. For the majority of our operations and maintenance contracts, revenue is recognized when services are performed and contractually billable. For all other service contracts, we recognize revenue over time using the cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion method. Service contracts that include multiple performance obligations are segmented between types of services. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation using an estimate of the stand-alone selling price of each distinct service in the contract. Revenue recognized on service contracts that has not been billed to clients is recorded as contract assets. Amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized on service contracts to date are recorded as contract liabilities. Customer payments on service contracts are typically due within 30 to 90 days of billing, depending on the contract.

Variable consideration. The nature of our contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration, including claims, unpriced change orders, award and incentive fees, liquidated damages and penalties. We consider variable consideration in the development of our project forecasts so that our forecasted revenue reflects the amount of consideration we expect to be probable of recovering without a significant reversal. We estimate the amount of revenue to be recognized on variable consideration using the expected value method (i.e., the sum of probability-weighted amounts) or the most likely amount method, whichever offers better prediction.
Warranties. We generally provide limited duration warranties for work performed under our contracts. Historically, warranty claims have not resulted in material costs incurred, and any estimated costs for warranties are included in the individual project cost estimates for purposes of accounting for long-term contracts.

Practical Expedients. If we have a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of our performance completed to date (a service contract in which we bill a fixed amount for each hour of service provided), we recognize revenue in the amount to which we have a right to invoice for services performed. We do not adjust the contract price for the effects of a significant financing component where, at contract inception, the period between service provision and customer payment will be one year or less. We exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are collected by us from our customers (use taxes, value added taxes, some excise taxes).

RUPO. RUPO represents a measure of the value of work to be performed on contracts awarded and in progress. Although RUPO reflects business that is considered to be firm, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. RUPO is adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate. RUPO differs from backlog discussed elsewhere in the 2020 10-K. Backlog includes the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under ongoing operations and maintenance contracts for the remainder of the current year renewal period plus up to three additional years if renewal is considered to be probable, while RUPO includes only the amount of revenue we expect to recognize under ongoing operations and maintenance contracts with definite terms and substantive termination provisions.
Project Estimates
    Due to the nature of our industry, there is significant complexity in our estimation of total expected revenue and cost, for which we must make significant judgments. Our contracts with our customers may contain award fees, incentive fees, liquidated damages or other provisions that can either increase or decrease the contract price to arrive at estimated revenue. These variable amounts generally are earned upon achievement of certain performance metrics, program milestones or cost targets and can be based upon customer discretion. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount to which we expect to be entitled. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable we will realize that amount. Our estimates of variable consideration and our determination of its inclusion in project revenue for accounting purposes are based on an assessment of our anticipated performance and other information that may be available to us.

    At a project level, we have specific practices and procedures to review our estimate of total revenue and cost. Each project team reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations, which impact the project’s accounting outcome. As part of this process, the project team reviews information such as any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule and identified risks and opportunities. The accuracy of our revenue and profit recognition in a given period depends on the accuracy of our project estimates, which can change from period to period for factors such as:

Complexity in original design;
Extent of changes from original design;
Different site conditions than assumed in our bid;
The productivity, availability and skill level of labor;
Weather conditions when executing a project;
The technical maturity of the technologies involved;
Length of time to complete the project;
Availability and cost of equipment and materials;
Subcontractor and joint venture partner performance;
Expected costs of warranties; and

Our ability to recover for additional contract costs.

    We recognize changes in contract estimates on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the changes are identified. Such changes in contract estimates can result in the recognition of revenue in a current period for performance obligations which were satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods. Changes in contract estimates may also result in the reversal of previously recognized revenue if the current estimate adversely differs from the previous estimate. If we estimate that a project will have costs in excess of revenue, we recognize the total loss in the period it is identified.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
    Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed and include unbilled receivables (typically for cost reimbursable contracts) and contract work in progress (typically for fixed-price contracts). Unbilled receivables, which represent an unconditional right to payment subject only to the passage of time, are recognized as accounts receivable when they are billed under the terms of the contract. Advances that are payments on account of contract assets are deducted from contract assets. We anticipate that substantially all incurred cost associated with contract assets as of December 31, 2020 will be billed and collected within one year. Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized to date.
Segment Reporting
Management evaluates segment performance based on segment profit. We incur cost and expenses and hold certain assets at the corporate level which relate to our business as a whole. Certain of these amounts have been charged to our business segments by various methods, largely on the basis of usage. Total assets not allocated to segments and held in "Corporate and other" primarily include cash, marketable securities, income-tax related assets, pension assets, deferred compensation trust assets and corporate property, plant and equipment.
Segment profit is an earnings measure that we utilize to evaluate and manage our business performance. Segment profit is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue and earnings attributable to NCI.
Variable Interest Entities
We assess our partnerships and joint ventures at inception to determine if any meet the qualifications of a VIE. We consider a partnership or joint venture a VIE if it has any of the following characteristics:
(a) the total equity investment is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support,
(b) characteristics of a controlling financial interest are missing (either the ability to make decisions through voting or other rights, the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity), or
(c) the voting rights of the equity holders are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity and/or their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, and substantially all of the entity's activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.

Upon the occurrence of certain events, we reassess our initial determination of whether the partnership or joint venture is a VIE. The majority of our partnerships and joint ventures qualify as VIEs because the total equity investment is typically nominal and not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support.

We also perform a qualitative assessment of each identified VIE to determine if we are its primary beneficiary. We conclude that we are the primary beneficiary and consolidate the VIE if we have both:

(a) the power to direct the economically significant activities of the entity and
(b) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

We consider the contractual agreements that define the ownership structure, distribution of profits and losses, risks, responsibilities, indebtedness, voting rights and board representation of the respective parties in determining if we are the primary beneficiary. We also consider all parties that have direct or implicit variable interests when determining whether we
F-13

are the primary beneficiary. Management's assessment of whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE is continuously performed.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include securities with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase.
Marketable Securities
Marketable securities consist of time deposits placed with investment grade banks with original maturities greater than three months, which are typically held-to-maturity because we have the intent and ability to hold them until maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. Our investments in debt securities are classified as available-for-sale because they may be sold prior to their maturity date. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value. The cost of securities sold is determined by using the specific identification method. Marketable securities are assessed at least annually for other-than-temporary impairment.
Research and Development
We have a controlling interest in NuScale, a research and development operation associated with the licensing and commercialization of small modular nuclear reactor technology. Since May 2014, NuScale has been receiving reimbursement from the DOE for certain qualified expenditures under cost-sharing award agreements that require NuScale to use the DOE funds to cover first-of-a-kind engineering costs associated with small modular reactor design development and certification. Costs incurred by NuScale are expensed as incurred, net of qualifying DOE reimbursements, and reported in "Cost of revenue". The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved NuScale's design certification application in August 2020. Aside from NuScale, we generally do not engage in significant research and development activities.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or the lease terms. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the following ranges of estimated useful service lives, in years:
Estimated Useful Service Lives
Buildings
20 – 40
Building and leasehold improvements
6 – 20
Machinery and equipment
2 – 10
Furniture and fixtures
2 – 10
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are subject to at least annual impairment tests during the fourth quarter. For impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the applicable reporting units based on the current reporting structure. We compare the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are impaired if their carrying value exceeds their fair value. In-process research and development associated with our investment in NuScale is considered indefinite lived until the related technology is available for commercial use.
Interim impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets is performed if indicators of potential impairment exist. Such indicators may include the results of operations of certain businesses and geographies and the performance of the company stock price.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives.

Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax filings. We evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets and record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are our forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize such assets. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and could adversely impact our future effective tax rate.
Income tax positions are recognized when they meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are derecognized upon such determination. We recognize potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
Judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes as we consider our worldwide taxable earnings and the impact of the continuing audit process conducted by various tax authorities. The final outcome of any audits could differ materially from amounts recognized by the company.
We account for the GILTI effects in the period that is subject to such tax.
Derivatives and Hedging
We attempt to limit foreign currency exposure in most of our contracts by denominating contract revenue in the currencies in which cost is incurred. Certain financial exposure, which includes currency and commodity price risk associated with engineering and construction contracts, currency risk associated with monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies and risk associated with interest rate volatility, may subject us to earnings volatility. We may implement a hedging strategy utilizing derivatives instruments or hedging instruments to mitigate such risk. Our hedging instruments are designated as either fair value or cash flow hedges. We formally document our hedge relationships at inception, including identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, our risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction, and the initial quantitative assessment of the hedging instrument's effectiveness in offsetting changes in the fair value of the hedged items. We subsequently assess hedge effectiveness qualitatively, unless the hedge relationship is no longer highly effective. All hedging instruments are recorded at fair value. For fair value hedges, the change in fair value is offset against the change in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability through earnings. For cash flow hedges, the change in fair value is recorded as a component of AOCI and is reclassified into earnings when the hedged item settles. For derivatives that are not designated or do not qualify as hedging instruments, the change in the fair value of the derivative is offset against the change in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability through earnings. In certain limited circumstances, foreign currency payment provisions could be deemed embedded derivatives. If an embedded foreign currency derivative is identified, the derivative is bifurcated from the host contract and the change in fair value is recognized through earnings. We maintain master netting arrangements with certain counterparties to facilitate the settlement of derivative instruments; however, we report the fair value of derivatives on a gross basis.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Accounts receivable and all contract work in progress are from clients in various industries and locations throughout the world. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress or, in certain cases, advance payments. We generally do not require collateral, but in most cases can place liens against the project assets or terminate the contract, if a material default occurs. We evaluate the counterparty credit risk as part of our project risk review process and in determining the appropriate level of reserves. We maintain reserves for potential credit losses and generally such losses have been minimal and within management's estimates.
Cash and marketable securities are deposited with major banks throughout the world. Such deposits are placed with high quality institutions and the amounts invested in any single institution are limited to the extent possible in order to minimize concentration of counterparty credit risk.
Our counterparties for derivatives are large financial institutions selected based on profitability, strength of balance sheet, credit ratings and capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparty related to our derivative contracts.
We monitor the credit quality of our counterparties and have not incurred any significant credit risk losses related to our deposits or derivative contracts.

Stock-Based Plans
Our stock plans provide for grants of nonqualified or incentive stock options, RSUs, restricted stock and performance-based award units, including VDI units. All grants of stock options and RSUs as well as performance-based units awarded to Section 16 officers in 2020, 2019 and 2018 can only be settled in company stock and are accounted for as equity awards.
All expense under stock-based awards is recognized based on the fair values of the awards. Stock option awards have grant exercise prices equal to the grant date market price of the company's stock. The fair value of grants of RSUs and restricted stock is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant but may be discounted for any post-vest holding periods. The grant date fair value of performance-based award units is determined by adjusting the closing price of the company's common stock on the date of grant for any post-vest holding period discounts and for the effect of market conditions, when applicable. Stock-based compensation expense is generally recognized over the required service period, or over a shorter period when employee retirement eligibility is a factor.
We also grant SGI awards and performance-based awards to non-Section 16 executives which are settled in cash. These awards are classified as liabilities and remeasured at fair value through expense at the end of each reporting period using our closing stock price until the awards are settled. Awards that may be settled in cash or company stock at the election of the recipient are also classified as liability awards.
Leases
We recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than 12 months or leases that contain a purchase option that is reasonably certain to be exercised. Leases are classified as either finance or operating leases. This classification dictates whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Our right-of use assets and lease liabilities primarily relate to office facilities, equipment used in connection with long-term construction contracts and other personal property. Certain of our facility and equipment leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term up to 10 years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our discretion. Renewal periods are included in the expected lease term if they are reasonably certain of being exercised by us. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. None of our lease agreements contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants.

Long-term leases (leases with terms greater than 12 months) are recorded as liabilities at the present value of the minimum lease payments not yet paid. We use our incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease when the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. Certain lease contracts contain nonlease components such as maintenance, utilities, fuel and operator services. We recognize both the lease component and nonlease components as a single lease component for all of its right-of-use assets. From time to time, certain service or purchase contracts may contain an embedded lease.

Short-term leases (leases with an initial term of 12 months or less or leases that are cancelable by the lessee and lessor without significant penalties) are not capitalized but are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The majority of our short-term leases relate to equipment used on construction projects. These leases are entered into at periodic rental rates for an unspecified duration and typically have a termination for convenience provision.
3.    Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Pronouncements Implemented During 2020
On January 1, 2020, we adopted ASC Topic 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate credit losses. The new guidance requires financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. We adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method, and accordingly, the new guidance was applied to financial assets measured at amortized cost (primarily accounts receivable and contract assets) that existed as of January 1, 2020 (the date of initial application). As a result, we recorded additional reserves for credit losses of $2 million and a cumulative effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings by $2 million as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASC 326 did not have a material impact on our results of operations or any impact on our cash flows. We utilize a combination of methods for estimating expected credit losses including loss rates, aging schedules and

probability-of-default. In evaluating our historical loss rates, accounts receivable and contract assets are pooled into the following categories based on similar risk characteristics: (1) EPC management; (2) government; (3) operations and maintenance; and (4) equipment leasing. Historical loss experience is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, when applicable. Significantly aged receivables are evaluated individually by credit rating. Our reserve for credit losses amounted to $39 million and $35 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.

In the first quarter of 2020, we adopted ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” which eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In the first quarter of 2020, we adopted ASU 2018-18, “Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606,” which clarifies that certain transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement should be accounted for under ASC 606 when the counterparty is a customer. The adoption did not have any impact on our financial statements.

In the first quarter of 2020, we adopted ASU 2018-17, “Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities,” which amends the guidance for determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. The adoption did not have any impact on our financial statements.

In the first quarter of 2020, we adopted ASU 2018-15, “Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract,” which requires customers in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to capitalize certain implementation costs as if the arrangement was an internal-use software project. The adoption did not have any impact on our financial statements.

In the first quarter of 2020, we adopted ASU 2018-13, “Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement,” which amends certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. For example, public companies will now be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption did not have any impact on our financial statements, but we have made additional disclosures related to the range and weighted average rates used to develop significant inputs for nonrecurring Level 3 measurements.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, we adopted ASU 2018-14, “Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans,” which amends certain disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Segment loss in 2019 included charges associated with forecast revisions on certain projects including $260 million (or $1.85 per share) for cost growth on an offshore project; $87 million (or $0.62 per share) for cost growth on two downstream projects and scope reductions on a large upstream project; $26 million (or $0.19 per share) for the write-off of pre-contract costs, $26 million (or $0.19 per share) on embedded foreign currency derivatives and $31 million (or $0.22 per share) from the resolution of close-out matters. Segment profit in 2018 included charges of $133 million (or $0.89 per share) for cost growth on a completed, downstream project and $40 million (or $0.23 per share) for cost growth on the aforementioned offshore project.
We are currently in discussions with the clients of the two lump-sum, downstream projects mentioned above over unapproved change orders totaling $66 million for cost growth and extension of time due to client-caused delays. Our current forecasts are based on the probability of favorably resolving these matters. Revenue and segment profit could be adversely affected if these matters are not successfully resolved, including the assessment of liquidated damages for which our combined maximum exposure for both projects is approximately $121 million.
Mining & Industrial. Segment profit in 2019 included a gain of $31 million (or $0.16 per share) resulting from a favorable resolution of a longstanding customer dispute on a mining project.
Infrastructure & Power. Segment profit in 2020 included a positive settlement on a canceled rail project offset by charges for cost growth in the infrastructure legacy portfolio. Segment loss in 2019 included charges totaling $135 million (or $0.96 per share) for the settlement of client disputes and cost growth on certain close-out matters for three power projects that were substantially complete as of December 31, 2019. Segment loss in 2019 was further driven by charges totaling $133 million (or $0.95 per share) resulting from late engineering changes, schedule-driven cost growth and negotiations with clients and subcontractors on pending change orders, for several infrastructure projects. Segment loss in 2018 included charges totaling $188 million (or $1.02 per share) resulting from cost growth at one of the aforementioned power projects. The charges in 2018 were largely offset by a gain of $125 million (or $0.74 per share) on the sale of a joint venture interest in the United Kingdom.
Government. Revenue from work performed for various agencies of the U.S. government amounted to 18%, 15% and 18% of our consolidated revenue during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
During 2019, we settled with a client in connection with the cancellation of two subcontracts at nuclear power plant projects in South Carolina and Georgia. The settlement resolved our claims arising prior to the bankruptcy filing in March 2017. Proceeds from the settlement were received during 2019. As a result of the settlement, we de-recognized pre-petition accounts receivable of $68 million and also recorded $89 million of previously unrecognized service fee revenue.
Diversified Services.  During 2020, 2019 and 2018, intercompany revenue for the Diversified Services segment, excluded from the amounts shown above, was $270 million, $322 million and $332 million, respectively.
Other. Segment loss in 2019 included charges of $59 million (or $0.42 per share) on the Warren project and $83 million (or $0.59 per share) on the Radford project for various engineering and cost growth associated with the facilities. Segment loss in 2018 of $56 million (or $0.30 per share) was driven by forecast revisions on the Radford project. There were no similar material charges in 2020. Segment loss for all periods included the operations of NuScale, which are primarily for research and development activities associated with the licensing and commercialization of small modular nuclear reactor technology. NuScale expenses included in the determination of segment loss were $84 million, $66 million and $74 million during 2020,

Restructuring and Other Exit Costs

During 2019, we initiated a restructuring plan designed to optimize costs and improve operational efficiency. These efforts primarily relate to the rationalization of resources, investments, real estate and overhead across various geographies, as well as the liquidation of certain components of the AMECO business that are being excluded from sale. Our planned restructuring activities were substantially completed by the end of 2020. Restructuring costs totaled $8 million and $240 million during 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Asset impairment charges included the write down of assets held for sale to fair value less cost to sell and the write down of certain other assets to fair value. The fair value of assets and liabilities held for sale and other impaired assets, primarily construction equipment, was estimated using observable Level 2 inputs for identical assets. See Note 24 for a summary of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. The fair value of the other impaired assets was $25 million as of December 31, 2019.

2020 Impairment
Our business has been adversely affected by the economic impacts of the outbreak of COVID-19 and the steep decline in oil prices that occurred in the early part of 2020. These events have created significant uncertainty and economic volatility and disruption, which have impacted and may continue to impact our business. We have experienced, and may continue to experience, reductions in demand for certain of our services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial condition or financial distress, as well as governmental budget constraints. These impacts are expected to continue or worsen under prolonged stay-at-home, social distancing, travel restrictions and other similar orders or restrictions. Significant uncertainty still exists concerning the magnitude of the impact and duration of these events. Because of these events, we performed interim impairment testing of our goodwill, intangible assets and investments and recognized the above impairment expense during the first quarter of 2020.
As part of our assessment of goodwill, the fair value of the reporting units was determined using an income based approach that utilized unobservable Level 3 inputs, including significant management assumptions such as expected awards, forecasted revenue and operating margins, weighted average cost of capital, working capital assumptions and general market trends and conditions.
The customer relationships' valuation approach utilized unobservable Level 3 inputs including ranges of assumptions of long-term revenue growth from 2% to 5.5% with a weighted average of 2.4%, weighted average cost of capital of 12% and a customer attrition factor of 10%.

The valuation of the equity method investments utilized unobservable Level 3 inputs based on the forecast of anticipated volumes and overhead absorption in a cyclical business.

2019 Impairment
During 2019, we recognized impairment expense on our intangible customer relationships associated with Stork. The fair value of the customer relationships was determined by a third party using an income-based approach that utilized unobservable Level 3 inputs, including significant management assumptions such as forecasted revenue and operating margins, customer attrition and weighted average cost of capital. The net carrying value of the customer relationships was $31 million as of December 31, 2019.
We also evaluated our significant investments and determined that certain of our investments were impaired during 2019. The fair value of these investments were determined using income-based approaches that utilized unobservable Level 3 inputs, including significant management assumptions such as forecasted revenue and operating margins and weighted average cost of capital. The net carrying value of these investments totaled $95 million as of December 31, 2019.
7.    Income Taxes
In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and deferral of employer payroll taxes. We recorded a discrete benefit of $125 million due to utilization of a 2019 net operating loss in the carryback period. Prior to the CARES Act, this loss could only be carried forward and was offset by a valuation allowance. Through December 31, 2020, we have deferred payroll taxes of $41 million under the CARES Act, with approximately half of the deferral payable in 2021 and and the remainder payable in 2022.

foreign withholding and income taxes that would be due upon remittance. We have no intention of initiating any actions that would lead to taxation of the earnings deemed indefinitely reinvested.

We have U.S federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $159 million and $908 million, respectively. The federal net operating loss carryforwards can be carried forward indefinitely. If not used, the state net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2021. Approximately $117 million of the state net operating loss carryforwards will expire in 2021. We also have non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards related to various jurisdictions of approximately $1.2 billion. Non-U.S. net operating losses include $599 million in the United Kingdom and $345 million in the Netherlands as of December 31, 2020. Of the total non-U.S. losses, $800 million can be carried forward indefinitely. The majority of the remaining $296 million net operating losses, if unused, will expire between 2023 and 2028.

We had U.S. foreign tax credits of approximately $414 million as of December 31, 2020, which will begin to expire in 2028, but which are fully reserved for in our valuation allowance

During 2020 and 2019, we were in a three-year cumulative loss on a consolidated, jurisdictional basis in Australia, the Netherlands, the U.K. and the U.S. Such cumulative loss constitutes significant negative evidence (with regards to future taxable income) for assessing likelihood of realization. We also considered positive evidence but concluded it did not outweigh this significant negative evidence of a three-year cumulative loss. Accordingly, we recognized non-cash charges to tax expense of $142 million and $602 million to record a valuation allowance against net U.S. deferred tax assets and $28 million and $129 million against certain net foreign deferred tax assets during 2020 and 2019, respectively.

In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities worldwide, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Although we believe our reserves for our tax positions are reasonable, the outcome of tax audits could be materially different, both favorably and unfavorably. With a few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2012.
A summary of unrecognized tax benefits follows:
(in thousands) 2020 2019
Balance at beginning of year $ 42,394  $ 55,476 
Change in tax positions of prior years 8,166  6,359

Reduction in tax positions for audit settlements (637) (2,547)
Balance at end of year $ 48,413  $ 42,394 

If recognized, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, would favorably impact the effective tax rates by $30 million and $22 million, respectively. We had $11 million and $10 million of accrued interest and penalties as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We do not anticipate any significant changes to the unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

9.    Partnerships and Joint Ventures
In the normal course of business, we form partnerships or joint ventures primarily for the execution of single contracts or projects. The majority of these partnerships or joint ventures are characterized by a 50 percent or less, noncontrolling ownership or participation interest, with decision making and distribution of expected gains and losses typically being proportionate to the ownership or participation interest. Many of the partnership and joint venture agreements provide for capital calls to fund operations, as necessary. Accounts receivable related to work performed for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures included in "Accounts and notes receivable, net" were $218 million and $149 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

One of our more significant joint ventures is COOEC Fluor, in which we have a 49% ownership interest. COOEC Fluor owns, operates and manages the Zhuhai Fabrication Yard in China’s Guangdong province. We completed our final funding commitment to the joint venture of $26 million during 2021.
During 2020, we sold our interests in three infrastructure joint ventures and recognized a gain of $8 million. We also sold our 50% interest in an Energy & Chemicals joint venture during 2020 and recognized a loss of $11 million.
Variable Interest Entities
The net carrying value of the unconsolidated VIEs (classified under both investments and other accrued liabilities) was a net asset of $174 million and $217 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Some of our VIEs have debt; however, such debt is typically non-recourse in nature. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our investments in unconsolidated VIEs is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding necessary to satisfy the contractual obligations of the VIE. Future funding commitments as of December 31, 2020 for the unconsolidated VIEs were $72 million.
In some cases, we are required to consolidate certain VIEs. As of December 31, 2020, the carrying values of the assets and liabilities associated with the operations of the consolidated VIEs were $1.3 billion and $703 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, the carrying values of the assets and liabilities associated with the operations of the consolidated VIEs were $1.1 billion and $798 million, respectively. The assets of a VIE are restricted for use only for the particular VIE and are not available for our general operations.
We have agreements with certain VIEs to provide financial or performance assurances to clients, as discussed elsewhere.
10.    Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various agreements providing performance assurances and guarantees to our clients on behalf of certain unconsolidated and consolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other jointly executed contracts. These agreements are entered into primarily to support project execution commitments. The performance guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion of the project to a period extending beyond contract completion. The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees, which represents the remaining cost of work to be performed, was estimated to be $14 billion as of December 31, 2020. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed. For lump-sum contracts, the performance guarantee amount is the cost to complete the contracted work, less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete. In those cases where costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract, we may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, partners, subcontractors or vendors for claims. The performance guarantee obligation was not material as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Financial guarantees, made in the ordinary course of business in certain limited circumstances, are entered into with financial institutions and other credit grantors and generally obligate the company to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements generally require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower's obligation.
11.    Contingencies and Commitments
We and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to litigation, claims and other commitments and contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the asserted value of these matters may be significant, we currently do not expect that the ultimate resolution of any open matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
Since May 2018, purported shareholders have filed various complaints against Fluor Corporation and certain of its current and former executives in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Fluor common stock from August 14, 2013 through February 14, 2020, and seek to recover damages arising from alleged violations of federal securities laws. These claims are based on statements concerning Fluor’s internal and disclosure controls, risk management, revenue recognition, and Fluor’s gas-fired

power business, which plaintiffs assert were materially misleading. As of May 26, 2020, these complaints have been consolidated into one matter. We filed a motion to dismiss the matter on July 1, 2020. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded a charge as a result of this action.
Since September 2018, ten separate purported shareholders' derivative actions were filed against current and former members of the Board of Directors, as well as certain of Fluor’s current and former executives. Fluor Corporation is named as a nominal defendant in the actions. These derivative actions purport to assert claims on behalf of Fluor Corporation and make substantially the same factual allegations as the securities class action matter discussed above and seek various forms of monetary and injunctive relief. These actions are pending in Texas state court (District Court for Dallas County), the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, and the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. Certain of these actions have been consolidated and stayed until our motion to dismiss is ruled upon in the securities class action matter. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded a charge as a result of these actions.
Fluor Australia Ltd., our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Australia”), completed a cost reimbursable engineering, procurement and construction management services project for Santos Ltd. (“Santos”) involving a large network of natural gas gathering and processing facilities in Queensland, Australia. On December 13, 2016, Santos filed an action in Queensland Supreme Court against Fluor Australia, asserting various causes of action and seeking damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid of approximately AUD $1.47 billion. Santos has joined Fluor Corporation to the matter on the basis of a parent company guarantee issued for the project. We believe that the claims asserted by Santos are without merit and we are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded a charge as a result of this action.
Fluor Limited, our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Limited”), and Fluor Arabia Limited, a partially-owned subsidiary (“Fluor Arabia”), completed cost reimbursable engineering, procurement and construction management services for Sadara Chemical Company (“Sadara”) involving a large petrochemical facility in Jubail, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. On August 23, 2019, Fluor Limited and Fluor Arabia Limited commenced arbitration proceedings against Sadara after it refused to pay invoices totaling approximately $100 million due under the parties’ agreements. As part of the arbitration proceedings, Sadara has asserted various counterclaims for damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid totaling approximately $574 million against Fluor Limited and Fluor Arabia Limited. We believe that the counterclaims asserted by Sadara are without merit and are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of the counterclaims, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred in excess of amounts reserved for this matter. Accordingly, we have not recorded a charge as a result of the counterclaims.
Various wholly-owned subsidiaries of Fluor, in conjunction with a partner, TECHINT, (“Fluor/TECHINT”) performed engineering, procurement and construction management services on a cost reimbursable basis for Barrick involving a gold mine and ore processing facility on a site straddling the border between Argentina and Chile. In 2013, Barrick terminated the Fluor/TECHINT agreements for convenience and not due to the performance of Fluor/TECHINT. On August 12, 2016, Barrick filed a notice of arbitration against Fluor/TECHINT, demanding damages and/or a refund of contract proceeds paid of not less than $250 million under various claims relating to Fluor/TECHINT’s alleged performance. Proceedings were suspended while the parties explored a possible settlement. In August 2019, Barrick drew down $36 million of letters of credit from Fluor/TECHINT ($24 million from Fluor and $12 million from TECHINT). Thereafter, Barrick proceeded to reactivate the arbitration. In December 2020, Barrick and Fluor/TECHINT exchanged detailed statements of claim and counterclaim pursuant to which Barrick’s claim against Fluor/TECHINT now totals approximately $330 million. We believe that the claims asserted by Barrick are without merit and are vigorously defending these claims. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, we have not recorded a charge as a result of these claims.
Purple Line Transit Partners, LLC (“PLTP”) entered into a Public Private Partnership Agreement (“PPPA”) with the Maryland Department of Transportation and the Maryland Transit Administration (together, the “State”) for the finance, design, construction, and operation of the Purple Line Project, a new light rail line in Maryland (the “Project”). PLTP is a limited liability company in which Fluor has a 15% membership interest. PLTP entered into an Amended and Restated Design-Build Contract (the “DB Contract”) with Purple Line Transit Constructors, LLC (“PLTC”) as design-build contractor to perform PLTP’s design and construction obligations under the PPPA on a back-to-back basis. PLTC is a limited liability company in which Fluor has a 50% membership interest. The design and construction of the Project was significantly delayed by more

than two and a half years due to events outside of PLTP or PLTC’s control. The PPPA contained a provision allowing PLTP the unconditional right to terminate the PPPA if certain events delayed the design and construction of the Project by 365 days or more. The DB Contract contained a similar provision allowing PLTC to terminate the DB Contract. Because of significant Project delays, in excess of 365 days, on May 1, 2020, PLTC gave notice to PLTP of PLTC’s intent to terminate the DB Contract. Upon receiving PLTC’s notice, on June 23, 2020, PLTP exercised its unconditional right to terminate the PPPA. The State challenged PLTP’s termination of the PPPA and commenced a lawsuit in Maryland state court against PLTP alleging breach of the PPPA. This matter has now been resolved. PLTC, PLTP and the State entered into a comprehensive settlement in December, 2020. As part of the settlement, Fluor transferred its 15% interest in PLTP to the remaining partners. Fluor also sold its 50% interest in the operations & maintenance entity to the remaining partners. PLTC received an initial settlement payment of $116 million from PLTP in December 2020, and we are contractually owed an additional $150 million to be paid no later than December 2021. The lawsuit has been dismissed with prejudice, the DB Contract is officially terminated, and PLTC has received a final release from PLTP and the State.
Other Matters
We have made claims arising from the performance under our contracts. We recognize revenue for claims, including change orders in dispute and unapproved change orders, when it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. We estimate the amount of revenue to be recognized on claims using the expected value method (i.e., the sum of probability-weighted amounts) or the most likely amount method, whichever offers better prediction. Factors considered in determining whether revenue associated with claims should be recognized include the following: (a) the legal basis for the claim, (b) additional costs were caused by circumstances that were unforeseen at the contract date and not the result of deficiencies in our performance, (c) claim-related costs are identifiable and considered reasonable in view of the work performed, and (d) evidence supporting the claim is objective and verifiable. Similarly, we recognize disputed back charges to suppliers or subcontractors as a reduction of cost when the same requirements have been satisfied. We periodically evaluate our positions and the amounts recognized with respect to all our claims and back charges. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had recorded $216 million and $198 million, respectively, of claim revenue for costs incurred to date. Additional costs, which will increase the claim revenue balance over time, are expected to be incurred in future periods. We also had recorded disputed back charges to suppliers or subcontractors as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, none of which were material.
From time to time, we enter into contracts with the U.S. government and its agencies. Government contracts are subject to audits and investigations by government representatives with respect to our compliance with various restrictions and regulations applicable to government contractors, including but not limited to the allowability of costs incurred under reimbursable contracts. In connection with performing government contracts, we maintain reserves for estimated exposures associated with these matters.
Our operations are subject to and affected by federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding the protection of the environment. We maintain reserves for potential future environmental cost where such obligations are either known or considered probable, and can be reasonably estimated. We believe, based upon present information available to us, that our reserves with respect to future environmental cost are adequate and such future cost will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
In February 2020, we announced that the SEC is conducting an investigation and has requested documents and information related to projects for which we recorded charges in the second quarter of 2019. In April 2020, the Corporation received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) seeking documents and information related to the second quarter 2019 charges; certain of the projects associated with those charges; and certain project accounting, financial reporting and governance matters. We are coordinating responses to the SEC and DOJ and cooperating in providing the requested documents and information, which efforts are ongoing.

Committed Line of Credit
In February 2021, we entered into an amended and restated $1.65 billion credit facility which matures in February 2023. This credit facility contains customary financial covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that cannot exceed 0.65 to 1.00, a limitation on the aggregate amount of debt of the greater of $750 million or €750 million for our subsidiaries, and a minimum liquidity threshold, as defined in the amended credit facility, of $1.5 billion which may be reduced to $1.25 billion

upon the repayment of debt. If this credit facility had been in place as of December 31, 2020, our financial covenants would have limited our further borrowings to approximately $934 million. The credit facility also contains provisions that will require us to provide collateral to secure this facility should we be downgraded to BB by S&P and Ba2 by Moody's, such collateral consisting broadly of our U.S. assets. Borrowings under the facility, which may be denominated in USD, EUR, GBP or CAD, bear interest at a base rate, plus an applicable borrowing margin.
As of December 31, 2020, letters of credit totaling $418 million were outstanding under our predecessor lines of credit, which consisted of a $1.7 billion Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility and a $1.8 billion Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility. There were no borrowings outstanding under these facilities as of December 31, 2020. These credit facilities also contained customary financial and restrictive covenants, including a debt-to-capitalization ratio that could not exceed 0.6 to 1.0.
Senior Notes
In August 2018, we issued $600 million of 4.250% Senior Notes due in September 2028 ("2028 Notes") and received proceeds of $595 million. Interest on the 2028 Notes is payable semi-annually in March and September. Prior to June 2028, we may redeem the 2028 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a “make whole” premium described in the indenture. After June 2028, the 2028 Notes can be redeemed at par plus accrued interest.
In March 2016, we issued €500 million of 1.750% Senior Notes due in March 2023 ("2023 Notes") and received proceeds of €497 million. Interest on the 2023 Notes is payable annually in March. Prior to December 2022, we may redeem the 2023 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a "make whole" premium described in the indenture. After December 2022, the 2023 Notes can be redeemed at par plus accrued interest. Additionally, we may redeem the 2023 Notes at par plus accrued interest if certain changes in U.S. tax laws occur.
In November 2014, we issued $500 million of 3.5% Senior Notes due in December 2024 ("2024 Notes") and received proceeds of $491 million. Interest on the 2024 Notes is payable semi-annually in June and December. Prior to September 2024, we may redeem the 2024 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a "make whole" premium described in the indenture. After September 2024, the 2024 Notes can be redeemed at par plus accrued interest.
For all of the Senior Notes, a change of control (as defined by the terms of the respective indentures) could require the company to repay them at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest. We may incur additional indebtedness if we are in compliance with certain restrictive covenants, including restrictions on liens and restrictions on sale and leaseback transactions.
Other Borrowings and Letters of Credit
Other borrowings of $34 million and $44 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, primarily represent bank loans and other financing arrangements associated with Stork.
Letters of credit are provided in the ordinary course of business primarily to indemnify our clients if we fail to perform our obligations under our contracts. Surety bonds may be used as an alternative to letters of credit. As of December 31, 2020, letters of credit totaling $862 million were outstanding under uncommitted lines of credit.
15.    Fair Value Measurements
The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels:
Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable, either directly or indirectly
Level 3 — unobservable inputs
We perform procedures to verify the reasonableness of pricing information received from third parties for significant assets and liabilities classified as Level 2.

16.    Goodwill and Intangible Assets
As discussed above, we performed interim impairment testing of our goodwill and intangible assets in the first quarter of 2020 due to the impacts of COVID-19 and the decline in oil prices. We recognized impairment expense of $169 million on goodwill associated with Diversified Services and $27 million on intangible customer relationships associated with Stork. No additional impairment on goodwill or intangible assets was recognized during the remainder of 2020. During 2019, we recognized impairment expense of $34 million on intangible customer relationships associated with Stork.

Our stock-based plans provide that RSUs and restricted stock may not be sold or transferred until service-based restrictions have lapsed and any performance objectives have been attained. Generally, upon termination of employment, RSUs and restricted stock which have not vested are forfeited. RSUs granted to executives in 2020, 2019 and 2018 generally vest ratably over 3 years. RSUs granted to one executive in 2020 vest over 5 years. RSUs granted to directors in 2020, 2019 and 2018 vested upon grant. RSUs awarded to directors in 2019 and 2018 (as well as one RSU award to a director in 2020) are subject to a post-vest holding period of 3 years. During 2020, 2019 and 2018, compensation expense related to RSUs of $17 million, $32 million and $30 million, respectively, was included in corporate G&A. The fair value of RSUs that vested during 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $5 million, $14 million and $28 million, respectively. The balance of unamortized RSU expense as of December 31, 2020 was $10 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years.
The exercise price of options represents the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The options granted in 2020, 2019 and 2018 generally vest over 3 years and expire 10 years after the grant date. Options granted to one executive in 2020 vest over 5 years. Stock option expense during 2020, 2019 and 2018 included in corporate G&A totaled $5 million, $4 million and $4 million, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during 2019 and 2018 was $0.3 million and $2 million, respectively. There were no stock option exercises during 2020. The balance of unamortized stock option expense as of December 31, 2020 was $6 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.

During 2020, 2019 and 2018, performance-based award units totaling 1,156,365; 350,532; and 206,598, respectively, were awarded to Section 16 officers. These awards generally vest after a period of 3 years and contain annual performance conditions for each of the 3 years of the vesting period. Under GAAP, performance-based awards are not deemed granted until the performance targets have been established. The performance targets for each year are generally established in the first quarter. Accordingly, only one-third of the units awarded in any given year are deemed to be granted each year of the 3 year vesting periods. During 2020, the following units were granted:

Average
Grant Date
Fair Value
Per Share
2020 Performance Award Plan 385,455 $9.05
2019 Performance Award Plan 116,844 $9.77
2018 Performance Award Plan 68,866 $10.75
For awards granted under the 2020, 2019 and 2018 performance award plans, the number of units are adjusted at the end of each performance period based on achievement of certain performance targets and market conditions, as defined in the award agreements.
Compensation expense of $1 million and $9 million related to performance-based award units was included in corporate G&A in 2019 and 2018, respectively. Compensation expense related to performance-based award units in 2020 was immaterial. The balance of unamortized compensation expense associated with performance-based award units as of December 31, 2020 was less than $0.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.2 years.
Liability Awards
We grant SGI awards in the form of stock units, determined by dividing the target amount by the closing price of our common stock at the grant date. Each stock unit represents the right to receive cash equal to the value of one share upon settlement. SGI awards granted to executives vest and become payable at a rate of one-third of the total award each year. Compensation expense of $25 million, $6 million and $6 million related to SGI awards was included in corporate G&A in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Liabilities associated with SGI awards were $29 million and $8 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
During 2020, 2019 and 2018, performance-based awards were awarded to non-Section 16 executives and will be settled in cash. Compensation expense of $3 million, $8 million and $10 million related to these performance-based awards was included in corporate G&A in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Liabilities associated with these awards were $16 million and $14 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

19.    Retirement Plans
DC Plans
Domestic and international DC plans are available to eligible salaried and craft employees. Company contributions to DC plans are based on an employee's eligible compensation and participation rate. We recognized expense of $130 million, $115 million and $150 million associated with contributions to our DC plans during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
DB Plans
Certain DB plans are available to eligible international salaried employees. Contributions to DB plans are at least the minimum amounts required by applicable regulations. Benefit payments under these plans are generally based upon length of service and/or qualifying compensation.
Net periodic pension expense for our DB Plans included the following components:
  Year Ended December 31,
(in thousands) 2020 2019 2018
Service cost $ 18,129  $ 15,750  $ 17,999

The service cost component of net periodic pension expense is presented in “Cost of revenue” and the other components of net periodic pension expense are presented in “Corporate G&A” and "(Gain) loss on pension settlement".
UK Plan
In 2018, we executed a buy-in policy contract with an insurance company to fully insure the benefits of the DB plan in the United Kingdom ("UK plan"). The UK plan was terminated in December 2019 and moved from "buy-in" to "buy-out" status, at which point the remaining benefit obligations were transferred to the insurer and we were relieved of any further obligation. During 2019, we recorded a loss on pension settlement of $138 million, which consisted primarily of unrecognized actuarial losses included in AOCI. The settlement of the plan did not impact our cash position.
During 2018, lump-sum distributions to participants of the UK plan exceeded the sum of the service and interest cost components of net periodic pension cost. As a result, we recorded a loss on partial pension settlement of $22 million.
DB Plan Assumptions
The ranges of assumptions indicated below cover DB plans in the Netherlands, Germany, the Philippines and the UK (2018 only) and are based on the economic environment in each host country at the end of each reporting period. The discount rates for the DB plans were determined primarily based on a hypothetical yield curve developed from the yields on high quality corporate and government bonds with durations consistent with the pension obligations in those countries. The expected long-term rate of return on asset assumptions utilizing historical returns, correlations and investment manager forecasts are established for all relevant asset classes including international equities and government, corporate and other debt securities.

For determining projected benefit obligation ("PBO") at year-end:

Expected long-term rates of return on assets
1.20-5.60%

1.90-7.00%
We evaluate the funded status of each of our DB plans using the above assumptions and determine the appropriate funding level in light of applicable regulatory requirements, tax deductibility, reporting considerations and other factors. The funding status of the plans is sensitive to changes in long-term interest rates and returns on plan assets, and funding obligations could increase substantially if interest rates fall dramatically or returns on plan assets are below expectations. Assuming no changes in current assumptions, we expect to contribute up to $12 million to our DB plans in 2021, which is expected to be in excess of the minimum funding required. If the discount rates were reduced by 25 basis points, plan liabilities would increase by approximately $57 million.
DB Plan Assets
The following table sets forth the target and actual allocations of plan assets:
  December 31,
2020 Target Allocation 2020 2019

Equity securities
25% - 35%

Other
0% - 10%
% %
Total 100  % 100  %
Our investment strategy is to maintain asset allocations that appropriately manage risk within the context of seeking adequate returns. Investment allocations are determined by each plan's governing body. Asset allocations may be affected by local regulations. Long-term allocation guidelines are established with a target range allocation for each asset class. Short-term deviations from these allocations may exist from time to time for tactical investment or strategic implementation purposes.
Investments in debt securities are used to provide stable investment returns while protecting the funding status of the plans. Investments in equity securities are utilized to generate long-term capital appreciation to mitigate the effects of increases in benefit obligations resulting from inflation, longer life expectancy and salary growth. While most of our plans may invest in the company's securities, there are no such direct investments at the present time.
Plan assets included investments in common or collective trusts ("CCTs"), which offer efficient access to diversified investments across various asset categories. The estimated fair value of the investments in the CCTs represents the net asset value of the shares or units of such funds as determined by the issuer. A redemption notice period of no more than 30 days is required for the plans to redeem certain investments in CCTs. At the present time, there are no other restrictions on how the plans may redeem their investments.
Debt securities are comprised of corporate bonds, government securities and CCTs with underlying investments in corporate bonds, government and asset backed securities and interest rate swaps. Corporate bonds primarily consist of investment-grade rated bonds and notes, of which no significant concentration exists in any one rating category or industry. Government securities include international government bonds, some of which are inflation-indexed. Corporate bonds and government securities are valued based on pricing models, which are determined from a compilation of primarily observable market information, broker quotes in non-active markets or similar assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Equity securities span various industries and are comprised of common stocks of international companies as well as CCTs with underlying investments in common and preferred stocks. Publicly traded corporate equity securities are valued based on the closing price of an active market or exchange. Inactive securities are valued at the last reported bid price. As of both December 31, 2020 and 2019, direct investments in equity securities were concentrated in international securities.
Other plan assets include guaranteed investment contracts and CCTs. Guaranteed investment contracts are insurance contracts that guarantee a principal repayment and a stated rate of interest. The estimated fair value of these insurance contracts, which are Level 3 assets, represents the discounted value of guaranteed benefit payments. CCTs hold underlying investments primarily in commodities.

The total ABO for all DB Plans as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $793 million and $681 million, respectively.
Multiemployer Pension Plans
In addition to our DB plans discussed above, we participate in multiemployer pension plans for unionized construction and maintenance craft employees. Company contributions are based on the hours worked by employees covered under various collective bargaining agreements and totaled $38 million, $32 million and $30 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. We are not aware of any significant future obligations or funding requirements related to these plans other than the ongoing contributions that are paid as hours are worked by plan participants. None of these multiemployer pension plans are individually significant to us. The preceding information does not include amounts related to benefit plans applicable to employees associated with certain contracts with the U.S. Department of Energy because we are not responsible for the current or future funding of these plans.
20.    Other Noncurrent Liabilities
We have deferred compensation plans and other retirement arrangements for executives which generally provide for payments upon retirement, death or termination of employment. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the obligations related to these plans totaled $329 million and $338 million, respectively, within noncurrent liabilities. To fund these obligations, we have established non-qualified trusts, which are included in noncurrent assets. These trusts hold life insurance policies and marketable securities. These trusts were valued at $350 million and $341 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Periodic changes in the value of these trust investments, most of which are unrealized, are recognized in earnings, and serve to mitigate changes to the obligations which are also reflected in earnings.
We maintain appropriate levels of insurance for business risks, including workers compensation and general liability. Insurance coverages contain various retention amounts for which we provide accruals based on the aggregate of the liability for reported claims and an actuarially determined estimated liability for claims incurred but not reported. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, insurance liabilities of $70 million and $80 million, respectively, were included in noncurrent liabilities.

24. Discontinued Operations
We expect to complete the sale of the AMECO equipment business, which is reported in Disc Ops, within the first half of 2021. The assets and liabilities of the AMECO business are classified as held for sale. During 2020, we recognized impairment expense of $146 million, of which $12 million related to goodwill, to reduce the AMECO assets to their fair value less cost to sell. The fair value of the AMECO assets were determined using a combination of observable level 2 inputs, including indicative offers and ongoing negotiations for the related assets.
In August 2020, we sold our AMECO equipment business in Jamaica for $18 million and recognized a loss of $1 million. The operations of the AMECO business in Jamaica were included in Disc Ops through the date of sale.

In August 2019, we settled legal matters related to a previously divested business. The resulting gain and all associated legal fees were included in "Other" in the tables below.

Exhibit 10.24
RETIREMENT AND RELEASE AGREEMENT
Carlos M. Hernandez (“Employee”) and Fluor Enterprises, Inc. (“FEI”) have reached the following Retirement and Release Agreement (“Agreement”) in connection with Employee’s separation from FEI and Fluor Corporation (“Company”). In this Agreement, the term “Parties” refers to Employee and FEI.
Recitals
A.     The Parties have mutually agreed that Employee will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and a director on the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company through December 31, 2020 (the “Transition Date”), after which Employee will cease to serve as CEO, will resign as a director on the Board, and will provide transition services to the Company from January 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021 (“Transition Period”), with employee retiring effective July 1, 2021 (the “Retirement Date”).
B.     The Parties have voluntarily agreed to enter into this Agreement which sets forth the complete understanding between Employee and Company regarding the commitments and obligations of the Parties.
Agreement
    In consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are acknowledged, Company and Employee agree as follows:
1.Payments and Other Consideration. This Agreement shall become effective on the date that it is signed by both Employee and FEI, provided that Employee does not subsequently revoke the Agreement within the time period set forth in Paragraph 4. Employee shall continue to serve as CEO and as a director on the Board through the Transition Date, for which he will continue to receive the same compensation and benefits as were in effect prior to execution of this Agreement. Employee shall cease to serve as CEO after the Transition Date and, provided that Employee resigns from the Board as a director on the Transition Date, FEI agrees to employ Employee during the Transition Period in a non-executive, non-officer status as Special Advisor to the Chairman and CEO and to make the payments, accommodations and other considerations as provided for below in Paragraphs 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1g and 1h, provided that: (i) Employee provides the Transition Services through the Retirement Date (other than on account of death or disability) and Employee does not accept or begin employment or any engagement with a Competitive Business during the Transition Period; (ii) Employee signs and delivers to the Company the Long Term Incentives Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement (“LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement”) in the form attached as Exhibit 2 to this Agreement promptly after the Transition Date; and (iii) with respect to the benefits and payments provided for in Paragraphs 1b, 1d, 1f, 1g and 1h, Employee signs and delivers to the Company the Supplemental Release and Waiver of Claims in the form attached as Exhibit 1 to this Agreement (“Supplemental Release”) within the time period set forth therein and does not subsequently revoke it within the time period set forth therein. Employee understands that the Company will deduct from any payments specified herein applicable withholding taxes and other



deductions the Company is required by law to make from wages and other payments to employees. Employee further understands that the payments and benefits set forth in this Paragraph 1 are all the Employee is entitled to receive from the Company in connection with his separation from service, except for those amounts described in Paragraph 6 and 25 to which Employee may be entitled.

a.Transition Services. During the Transition Period, Employee shall assist the Company in the orderly transition of Employee’s knowledge, duties, and responsibilities to others in the Company, performing such duties as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chairman shall reasonably determine from time to time (including but not limited to, providing advice, sub-certifying the disclosures made in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, cooperating with requests for assistance, etc.), and making himself reasonably available for any future assistance related to any inquiry, investigation, subpoena, administrative procedure, arbitration, claim, litigation or dispute (collectively, the “Transition Services”). The Company agrees to continue Employee’s employment during the Transition Period in a non-executive and non-officer status provided that Employee complies with all obligations under this Agreement, complies with Fluor’s Code of Business Conduct & Ethics and other Company policies, and does not perform services, directly or indirectly, in any capacity (whether as an employee, partner, consultant, agent or other arrangement) with any other company engaged in or planning to become engaged in business that directly or indirectly competes with the Company and/or its affiliates and/or parent corporation (“Competitive Business”), regardless of the location of the Competitive Business. The Parties also agree that during the Transition Period Employee may provide Transition Services remotely (for example, from home), as reasonably directed by the Company’s CEO or Chairman, or their respective designees. Employee’s services for the Company during the Transition Period will be at a level that results in a “separation from service” under the Fluor 409A Executive Deferred Compensation Program and for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) on the Transition Date.

(i)During the Transition Period Employee shall be paid at his normal base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Transition Date (“Base Salary”), without reduction or pro-ration based on hours worked, and shall be eligible to participate in all health, welfare, life insurance and similar plans and programs generally available to non-executive employees of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plans and programs, as amended from time to time. Other than as expressly provided in this Agreement, Employee shall not be entitled to receive benefits generally provided to executives or officers of the Company following the Transition Date, including but not limited to perquisites, allowances, club memberships, or severance payments under any severance policy or plan. The Parties agree that as of the Transition Date, the Change in Control Agreement between the Company and the Employee dated June 30, 2010 and the Amended and Restated Change in Control Agreement dated May 1, 2019 are hereby terminated with immediate effect and Employee disavows any right or claim to any benefits or compensation under that agreement.
Retirement and Release Agreement-Page 2



(ii)The Parties agree that if during the Transition Period Employee fails to provide the Transition Services (other than as a result of death or disability), breaches Fluor’s Code of Business Conduct & Ethics or other Company policies, or if the Company independently determines that Employee has accepted or began employment or engagement with a Competitive Business during the Transition Period, Employee shall be immediately terminated as of such date (“Termination Date”) and shall not be entitled to receive the payments and benefits set forth in this Agreement, other than any amounts that have been paid or vested prior to the Termination Date pursuant to Paragraph 1a, 1c, and 1e. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee will remain eligible to receive the consideration set forth in Paragraph 1f, provided Employee signs and delivers to the Company the LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement and the Supplemental Release without subsequently revoking it within the time period set forth therein. For clarity, and as set forth in Paragraph 1f, any long term incentive awards granted in 2020 shall be forfeited and shall not continue to vest if Employee is terminated before February 22, 2021.

b.Separation Payment. Subject to the clawback provision set forth below, Employee will receive a one-time, lump sum payment of One Million Seven Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Dollars, gross ($1,725,000 USD) (the “Separation Payment”), which is equal to eighteen months of Employee’s current base salary, conditioned on Employee’s compliance with all obligations under this Agreement. The Separation Payment shall be made no later than December 31, 2020, provided this Agreement becomes effective as set forth in Paragraph 4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee will be obligated to repay the Company the full amount of the Separation Payment if Employee: (i) fails to provide Transition Services through the end of the Transition Period, (ii) competes against the Company during the Transition Period, or (iii) does not sign the Supplemental Release, attached as Exhibit 1 to this Agreement, at the end of the Transition Period.

c.Fiscal Year 2020 Bonus. Employee will be eligible to receive a bonus under the Fluor Corporation 2017 Performance Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”) for the time period covering January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Such bonus shall be in an amount to be determined by the Board or under the Board’s delegated authority by the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Organization and Compensation Committee”). Employee’s bonus will be based on (i) Employee’s target annual bonus percentage, and (ii) actual achievement of the performance measures, both as set by the Organization and Compensation Committee at its September 2020 meeting, subject to any adjustment applicable to executive officers generally. Any earned bonus will be paid to the Employee at the same time annual bonuses are paid to other employees in the ordinary course in 2021.

d.Fiscal Year 2021 Bonus. Employee will receive a prorated bonus under the Incentive Plan in the amount of Eight Hundred Sixty-Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars, gross ($862,500 USD) if Employee provides Transition Services through the
Retirement and Release Agreement-Page 3

13.Consequences of Employee Breach of Promises.

Retirement and Release Agreement-Page 9

This paragraph is intended to apply to any false or
Retirement and Release Agreement-Page 10


defamatory statements that may be harmful to professional reputation or personal reputation or character.

17.Authorized Disclosures. Nothing in Paragraphs 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 25, or any other provision in the Agreement or exhibits thereto, shall prevent Employee or the Company from responding truthfully and accurately to any inquiry or request for information when required by court order, a government investigation or otherwise by compulsion of law.

In the event of a material breach or threatened material breach of Paragraphs 12, 14, 15 and 16 the Company, in addition to its other remedies at law or in equity, shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of such paragraphs (without posting a bond or other security).
18.Section 409A.
a.It is the intention of the Parties that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, payment of all benefits pursuant to Paragraph 1 of this Agreement shall be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A) due to (i) the involuntary termination exception as set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)((9)(iii) of the final regulations issued under Section 409A or such other exemption as may apply; (ii) the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the final regulations issued under Section 409A; or (iii) such other exemption as may apply.
b.Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any payments under this Agreement are subject to (and not exempt from) Section 409A, including payments under Paragraph 1, it is intended that such payments will comply with Section 409A as amounts
Retirement and Release Agreement-Page 11


payable on the earlier of a “fixed schedule” in accordance with Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(i) of the final regulations issued under Section 409A, or a “separation from service” as set forth in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the final regulations issued under Section 409A, such that no portion of the payments will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply.
c.Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the final regulations issued under Section 409A.
d.This Paragraph 18 is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code so that none of the payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to either (1) the six (6) month delay which may otherwise be required with respect to payments of deferred compensation to “specified Executives” as defined in Section 409A, and (b) any additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. The Parties agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to actual payment to Employee under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that it is determined that the payments provided under Paragraph 1 of this Agreement are deferred compensation that are payable pursuant to a separation from service, then such payments will be delayed for six months in accordance with the six month delay rules applicable to the Company’s other nonqualified deferred compensation plans. Neither the Company nor its affiliates shall have any liability to Employee based in whole or in part on a failure to comply with the requirements of Section 409A.
e.Employee understands and agrees that the Company offers no opinion on the taxability of any payments under this Agreement. Employee further agrees that he is solely responsible for the payment of all taxes and for the penalties and interest owing or determined to be owed by any appropriate taxing authority and that he will indemnify the Company and the Released Parties for the same.
19.Assistance in Disputes/Litigation. Employee agrees to make himself reasonably available for any future assistance related to any inquiry, investigation, claim, subpoena, administrative proceeding, arbitration, litigation, or dispute (collectively “Litigation”) involving the Company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures, or related entities as may be requested by the Company. Among other things, with reasonable advance notice, Employee will meet with the Company’s representatives and attorneys at mutually convenient times and locations to prepare for such Litigation and will appear and participate in providing evidence (written or oral testimony) in any pending or future Litigation. If Employee is called as a witness by the Company to give testimony in any legal matter, Employee understands that Employee is to answer proper questions truthfully. For Employee’s involvement and assistance when he is neither employed by the Company or under a consulting services agreement, the Company agrees to pay Employee’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, and to the extent permitted by law, regulation or applicable rules of Court, lost earnings incurred directly as a result of such
Retirement and Release Agreement-Page 12


assistance calculated at a rate of $552 (USD) per hour less required deductions. Any compensation is not, and shall not be, in any way contingent upon the content of Employee’s testimony in the course of any Litigation matter nor shall the compensation in any way be contingent on the outcome or disposition of any such matter.

20.Modifications of Agreement. This Agreement can only be modified in writing and that writing must be signed by both Employee and an authorized representative for the Company.

21.Headings and Interpretation of Agreement. Headings in this Agreement are inserted for reference and convenience only and are not a part of this Agreement. This Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with the plain meanings of its terms and not strictly for or against either of the Parties. The Parties agree that any ambiguities will not be construed solely against the drafting party and that any rule of law or decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the party that drafted it has no application and is expressly waived. Additionally, no course of conduct or failure or delay in enforcing the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of such provisions or affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement or any provision hereof. Employee acknowledges that, in signing this Agreement, Employee does not rely and has not relied upon any representation or statement not set forth in this Agreement with regard to the subject matter, basis, or effect of this Agreement. Employee has carefully read and understands this Agreement and had the opportunity to be/is represented by counsel.


22.Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced under Texas law, excluding the provisions thereof which refer to the laws of another jurisdiction. The Parties irrevocably agree to submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the state or federal courts in Dallas County, Texas, and appropriate appellate courts therefrom, in any action or proceeding brought with respect to or in connection with this Agreement. This choice of forum and law is knowingly and voluntarily agreed to by the Parties for their mutual convenience and in exchange for the consideration provided by the Company as stated herein, and is made a material part of this Agreement.

23.Severability. If any provision or part of this Agreement is held or determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, each such provision or part shall be severed from the remaining provisions of the Agreement or the Agreement shall be read and interpreted as if it did not contain such provision or part. The validity and enforceability of remaining provisions shall not be affected by any such invalid or unenforceable part or provision; however, if Employee seeks to invalidate any portion of the release in Paragraph 3 or in the Supplemental Release, and any such portion of the release is held to be unenforceable, Releasees may seek modification or severance of such portion or may terminate the Agreement or consider the Agreement null and void.

24.Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one
Retirement and Release Agreement-Page 13


and the same document. Faxed copies or PDF copies sent by email will be effective and enforceable.

25.Entire Agreement. This Agreement along with Exhibit 1 through Exhibit 3, and the governing Long Term Incentive plans and awards, which are incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein, are the entire Agreement between Employee and the Company and supersede any and all prior negotiations, agreements, and/or understandings between the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral. However, this Agreement is not intended to eliminate or modify any indemnification rights Employee may have under the Indemnification Agreement dated November 11, 2008, the Company’s bylaws or Certificate of Incorporation, or governing law. Additionally, this Agreement does not waive any rights Employee may have as a covered person under the Company’s directors and officers liability insurance. Furthermore, this Agreement does not eliminate or change the terms and conditions of any confidentiality agreement Employee may have signed at the time of hire or during his employment with the Company except that Employee may make disclosures as expressly set forth in Paragraph 9 of this Agreement. Further, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has made any promises or representations to Employee other than those expressly stated in this Agreement.

Exhibit 2 to Retirement and Release Agreement
LONG TERM INCENTIVES VESTING/FORFEITURE AGREEMENT
This Long Term Incentives Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement (the “LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement”) is between Fluor Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) and Carlos M. Hernandez (the “Employee”).
Underlying Premises of this Long Term Incentives Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement
    Whereas, Employee shall either retire from the Company on or about July 1, 2021 (the “Retirement Date”) or be terminated before June 30, 2021 (“Termination Date”) as per the terms set forth in the Retirement and Release Agreement to which this Exhibit 2 is attached (“Retirement and Release Agreement”); and
    Whereas, Employee desires to have certain outstanding grants of unvested non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units, performance based restricted stock units, and value-driver incentive awards (“Long Term Incentives”) vest; and
    Whereas, such Long Term Incentives have certain vesting restrictions when an Employee separates their employment from the Company in connection with retirement;
    NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, Employee and the Company hereby agree to the following terms and conditions:
1.Consideration. In exchange for the promises below, the Company agrees to vest certain outstanding Long Term Incentives of Employee in connection with retirement, as provided for in the applicable plan documents and agreements, if such Long Term Incentives were granted to Employee at least one year prior to either the Retirement Date or the Termination Date. In addition, Long Term Incentives granted to Employee in 2020 shall continue to vest and be payable in accordance with their terms on the dates set out in the awards if Employee remains employed through February 22, 2021. For clarity, the Long Term Incentives granted to Employee in 2020 shall be forfeited and shall not continue to vest if Employee’s employment with the Company ends before February 22, 2021.

2.Vesting Requirement/Conditions. For the consideration provided in paragraph 1 above, Employee agrees that he will not engage in any Detrimental Activity as provided for in paragraphs 3 and 4 below.

3.Detrimental Activity. Employee agrees that during the period of employment and for a period of 12 months after he is no longer employed by the Company, Employee will not, directly or indirectly, accept or become engaged in any capacity (whether as an employee, partner, consultant, agent or other arrangement) with any other company engaged in or about to become engaged in business that directly or indirectly competes with the Company and/or its affiliates, including any parent corporation (“Competitive Business”). This restriction applies to Employee working for a Competitive Business in the same country where a Company office or project (or an affiliate’s company or office) exists or is scheduled to start within 3 months of Employee’s Retirement Date or Termination Date. Such activity will be considered to be detrimental to the Company and/or its affiliates. A Competitive Business
1



includes any engineering and/or construction company headquartered or having a physical presence in any country, county, province, or parish in which the competitive business or its affiliates conduct business operations that are substantially similar to and/or competitive with, the Company’s or an affiliate’s business operations. The foregoing obligations shall not be deemed to prohibit Employee from being an owner of less than 5% of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as Employee has no active participation in the business of such corporation. Additionally, Detrimental Activity shall also include personally soliciting or participating in or assisting in any way in the solicitation of any other employees of the Company or of any of its affiliates for a period of one year from the Termination Date or Retirement Date. Employee understands and agrees that Detrimental activity shall also include failure to return the Company’s property; however, Employee understands he is not limited from providing any information or documents to any governmental agency, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as part of a whistleblower action and/or a report of possible violations of any federal securities law as stated in Paragraph 9 of the Retirement and Release Agreement. Employee may request the written consent of Fluor’s Board of Directors for any exceptions to this LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement that he wants the Company to consider, which may or may not be granted.

4.Confidential / Trade Secrets / Company Proprietary Information. Employee further understands and agrees that in the course of Employee's employment with the Company, Employee has acquired and will continue to acquire confidential and proprietary information and trade secrets concerning the Company's operations, its future plans and its methods of doing business. Employee understands and agrees it would be extremely damaging and detrimental to the Company if Employee disclosed such information to a competitor, made it available to any company, or used such information to compete with the Company or its affiliates in any way. Employee further understands and agrees that such information has been divulged to him in confidence and in consideration of the promises made in this LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement, and that the Company provided Employee with access to such information during his employment. Employee therefore agrees that he will not use or disclose such information to a competitor or another company and will not use such information to compete with the Company or its affiliates in any way.

Under the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Employee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made to Employee’s attorney in relation to a lawsuit for retaliation against Employee for reporting a suspected violation of law; or (c) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

5.Remedies. In the event Employee breaches or threatens to breach this LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement by participating in Detrimental Activity or using or disclosing confidential/trade secrets/Company propriety information as set out in paragraphs 3 and 4 herein (for example and without limitation, Employee becomes employed or otherwise engaged by an entity that competes with the Company or an affiliate or solicits Company employees as provided above), Employee will forfeit any vesting of any Long Term Incentive awards and may be required to repay the value of previously vested awards to the Company
2



to the extent that any vesting occurred in reliance on Employee’s promises as provided above. In addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, the Company may apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions in this agreement (without posting a bond or other security).

6.Authority to Reform. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the forfeiture of unvested Long Term Incentives for voluntarily engaging in Detrimental Activity and the geographic and time restrictions set forth herein are reasonable and are no greater than required to adequately protect the Company’s legitimate business interests. However, if at the time of enforcement of this LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement, a court shall refuse to enforce this LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement, whether because the time limit is too long or because the restrictions are more extensive than is necessary to protect the business and goodwill of the Company, the Parties understand and agree and direct that the court modify the restrictions to cover the maximum period, scope, and geographic area permitted by law.

7.Governing Law and Venue. This LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement shall in all respects be construed according to the laws of the State of Texas, excluding the provisions thereof which refer to the laws of another jurisdiction. With respect to any claim or dispute related to or arising under this LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement, the Parties hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction, forum and venue of the state and federal courts located in Dallas County, Texas and appropriate appellate courts therefrom. This choice of forum and law is knowingly and voluntarily agreed to by the Parties for their mutual convenience and in exchange for the consideration provided by the Company as stated herein, and is made a material part of this Agreement.

8.Entire Agreement. This LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement, in conjunction with the Retirement and Release Agreement, the Supplemental Release, and the Long Term Incentives’ governing plans and awards, contains the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter and supersedes any and all prior understandings, agreements or correspondence between the Parties. This LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement may not be waived or released by the Company unless in writing signed by the Executive Chairman of Fluor. No course of conduct or failure or delay in enforcing the provisions of this LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of such provisions or affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this LTI Vesting/Forfeiture Agreement or any provision hereof.

David Constable
754 Naples 17th Avenue South
Naples, Florida 34102    
Dear David:

On behalf of Fluor Enterprises, Inc. (“Fluor” or the “Company”), I am very pleased to offer you the position of Chief Executive Officer. If you accept this offer, your start date will be January 1, 2021 or another mutually agreed upon date. This letter summarizes the terms and conditions of your employment, should you accept this offer. We would like to have your response by October 30, 2020. Accordingly, this offer will expire at midnight on October 30, 2020 if it is not accepted before then.

All forms of compensation referred to in this offer letter are in USD and subject to reduction to reflect applicable withholding and payroll taxes and other deductions required by law. You will continue to serve on the Board of Directors as an employee director after your start date (subject to annual election the same as now), and any ongoing compensation as a non-employee director will cease upon your start date. Also, for any forms of compensation or benefits where Company service is a factor, your prior service as a Fluor employee will be counted.

Base Salary
Your starting annual base salary will be $1,350,000, less applicable withholding, which will be paid bi-weekly. Your salary will be reviewed on an annual basis in the first fiscal quarter of each year consistent with our annual executive compensation review.

Annual Incentive
Your annual incentive award will be determined consistent with the annual incentive plan applied to other Fluor executive officers based on a target amount commensurate with your position that will be reviewed annually. Your target annual incentive is 150% of your base salary or $2,025,000, gross. Your incentive opportunity range is from zero to 200% of target based on your individual performance and the overall results of Fluor Corporation. Annual incentives are awarded on a fiscal year basis payable within 90 days following the close of the fiscal year. Incentives for FY2021 are expected to be paid in Q1 of 2022 based on actual performance in FY2021.

Cash Transition and Relocation Payment

Subject to the clawback provision set forth below, you will receive a Cash Transition and Relocation Payment of $1,000,000, gross, to be paid on January 8, 2020. Please note all applicable taxes and withholdings will apply to this payment.

If you voluntarily terminate employment with the Company within twelve (12) months of your start date, you will be obligated to repay the Company, the net of taxes amount of the Cash Transition and Relocation Payment. To the extent permitted by applicable law, by signing below, you authorize the Company to deduct any amounts due from your final paycheck (including, without limitation, from any benefit or accrued vacation balance). If such a deduction from the final paycheck is


David Constable

Page 2 of 6

insufficient to reimburse the Company for the amount owed, you understand you remain personally liable for the remaining balance and agree to repay Fluor for the remaining balance within ten (10) days of your last day of employment.

Relocation Expenses

You will be reimbursed for travel expenses associated with house hunting, temporary housing costs, and moving expenses related to your relocation from Florida to the Dallas, Texas area in accordance with Company policy. If you decide to sell your current residence as part of your relocation, you will not be reimbursed for commission expenses or closing costs related to the sale.

Regular Long-Term Incentive (LTI) Award
Fluor will recommend to the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (“OCC”) your participation in the LTI plan for fiscal-year 2021. LTI awards emphasize long-term Company performance and management’s alignment with shareholder value creation through continued commitment to profitable growth and cost efficiencies. We will recommend a LTI award of $9,350,000 for fiscal 2021, which is: (i) subject to approval by the OCC; (ii) subject to your signing the corresponding LTI agreements, which along with the plan documents, provide additional details of the corresponding awards, restrictions, and vesting requirements. It is anticipated that your 2021 LTI award will be made at the same time as other Fluor executive officers in a comparable form, as determined by the OCC.

You will continue to be eligible for the LTI awards consistent with other Fluor executive officers while you remain employed by the Company. The design and target values associated with LTI awards are reviewed by the OCC each year so the components, timing and/or award values may vary.

Sign-On Equity Award

In connection with your appointment as CEO, you will receive $5,000,000 in equity awards based on the award-date value, as follows:

    (i) $2,500,000 in stock options with a ratable five year vesting period (vesting in 20% installments on the anniversary date of the award subject to your continued employment) and a ten year term, with vested shares becoming exercisable only if the closing price of the common stock on the date of award appreciates by at least 25% for any period of 20 consecutive trading days before the end of the five year vesting period and otherwise forfeited at that time (number of shares to be determined by the Black-Scholes value using the closing price on the date of award); and

    (ii) $2,500,000 of time-based restricted stock units with a five year vesting period vesting in 20% installments on the anniversary date of the award subject to your continued employment (number of shares to be determined by the closing price of the stock on the date of award).

The above-referenced Sign-on Equity Award is: (i) made pursuant to NYSE rules for new-hire inducement equity outside Fluor’s shareholder-approved stock plan; (ii) subject to approval by the OCC; and (iii) subject to your signing a stock option agreement and a restricted stock unit agreement which, along with the governing plan documents, provide details of the corresponding awards and their respective restrictions and vesting requirements. You should note that the retirement-acceleration provisions applicable to regular stock option and restricted stock unit awards will not apply to the Sign-on Equity, which is for the purpose of encouraging your employment retention.

It is anticipated that this Sign-on Equity Award will be made at the next OCC meeting after employment commences, but no later than January 8, 2021 or as soon as allowed if we are in a closed period.

At-Will Employment

Your employment relationship with Fluor will be “at-will.” This means that your employment with Fluor is not for any specified period of time and that either you or Fluor can terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any or no reason, with

Additionally, the at-will status of your employment cannot be altered by any oral statement or alleged oral agreement. Although the Company reserves the right to change from time-to-time other terms, conditions, and benefits of employment, the at-will nature of your employment with the Company is one aspect of our employment relationship that will not change. The only way the at-will nature of our employment relationship can be changed is by way of an express written agreement, signed by you and the Executive Chair of Fluor Corporation’s Board of Directors or the current Lead Independent Director. Accordingly, no statement from other Company officers or in any Company policy can change the at-will nature of your employment.

Exhibit 10.27
OPTION AGREEMENT
This Option Agreement ("Agreement") entered into as of December 23, 2020 (the "Grant Date"), by and between Fluor Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and you ("Grantee" or “you”) evidences the grant to Grantee of a Stock Option ("Option") pursuant to Rule 303A.08 of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the Plan (as defined below).
Section 1.EMPLOYMENT INDUCEMENT AWARD
This Option is an employment inducement award made in accordance with Rule 303A.08 of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual and is not granted under any stock incentive plan adopted by the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Option shall be construed as if the Option had been granted under the Fluor Corporation 2020 Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with and consistent with, and shall be treated as subject to, all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, including any terms, rules or determinations made by the Committee pursuant to its administrative authority under the Plan, and such further terms as are set forth in the Plan that are applicable to awards thereunder, including without limitation provisions on adjustment of awards, non-transferability, satisfaction of tax requirements and compliance with other laws. The Option is not intended to be an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of that term under Code Section 422.
Section 2.OPTION AWARD
The Company hereby awards Grantee an Option to purchase shares of Company common stock, par value $.01 per share (“Shares”), pursuant to this Agreement at an exercise price per Share of $16.55, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan (the “Exercise Price”). The Option may not be exercised in whole or in part as of the Grant Date, and becomes exercisable only if and to the extent provided in the following paragraphs and otherwise subject to and in accordance with the Plan.
Section 3.VESTING AND EXPIRATION
The Option shall vest at a rate of one fifth per year (rounded up to the nearest whole Share) commencing on December 23, 2021 and annually thereafter ending on December 23, 2025, provided that Grantee’s employment has not terminated on or before such date unless one of the exceptions in this Section 3 is met. Any portion of the Option that is or becomes vested shall only be exercisable if, at any time during the period between the Grant Date and December 23, 2025, the reported closing price per share of Company common stock is at least twenty-five percent (25%) above the Exercise Price (as such price may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Option and the Plan) for twenty (20) consecutive trading days, and shall be otherwise forfeited on December 23, 2025. Subject to the provisions below and the terms of the Plan, the right to exercise the Option shall expire on December 23, 2030. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that on the expiration date (i) the exercise of the Option is prohibited by applicable law or (ii) Shares may not be purchased or sold by you due to the “black-out period” of a Company policy or a “lock-up” agreement undertaken in connection with an issuance of securities by the Company, the expiration date shall be delayed until 30 days following the end of the legal prohibition, black-out period or lock-up agreement.
If your employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries terminates for any reason other than death, Disability or a Qualifying Termination, each as defined below and determined by the Committee in accordance with the Plan, then as of the date of such termination this Option shall expire as to any portion which has not yet become vested, meaning that you shall forfeit such portion in exchange for no additional consideration or payment. If prior to the Option becoming vested and exercisable in full pursuant to the preceding paragraph, your employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries terminates by reason of your death, Disability or a Qualifying Termination, each as determined by the Committee in accordance with the Plan, then any portion of this Option which has yet to become vested or exercisable shall become immediately vested and exercisable. Notwithstanding the foregoing and regardless of reason for termination, under all circumstances other than your Qualifying Termination, any Option held less than one year from the Grant Date shall be forfeited. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement confers any right of continuing employment with the Company or its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in the event of a Change of Control the successor to the Company does not assume this Option, then any portion of this Option which has yet to become vested and exercisable and which has not otherwise been forfeited pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3 shall become immediately vested and exercisable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event your employment is terminated for Cause (as defined herein), you shall forfeit your right to receive any unvested portion of this Option, unless otherwise prohibited by law.
To the extent that this Option is vested as of the date of your termination of employment, after taking into account the vesting provisions set forth in this Section 3, then this Option shall expire on the later of (i) three (3) months following your termination of employment, (ii) three (3) months following the date on which this Option becomes exercisable, or (iii) on December 23, 2025; provided, that if such termination occurred on account of your death, Disability, or a Qualifying Termination, the Option shall expire on its original expiration date.
    - 1 -


Exhibit 10.27
For purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" means your disability as determined in accordance with applicable Company personnel policies and the Plan. The term “Qualifying Termination” means your involuntary termination of employment by the Company, without Cause, within two (2) years following a Change of Control of the Company. For this purpose, “Cause” means your dishonesty, fraud, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty, conflict of interest, commission of a felony, material failure or refusal to perform your job duties in accordance with Company policies, material violation of Company policy that causes harm to the Company or its subsidiaries or other wrongful conduct of a similar nature and degree.
Section 4.RESALE AND TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS
Neither the Option nor any interest therein may be sold, assigned, conveyed, gifted, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in any manner, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any re-sales by the Grantee or other subsequent transfers by the Grantee of any Shares issued as a result of the exercise of this Option, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Grantee and other Option holders and (с) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such re-sales or other transfers.
Section 5.WITHHOLDING
Regardless of any action the Company or the Grantee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the grant of this Option, including the grant, vesting and exercise of the Option, delivery of Shares and/or cash related to such Option or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such Option, and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of the grant of this Option to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items. The Grantee shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or receipt of this Option that cannot be satisfied by the means described below. Further, if the Grantee is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the Shares if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
Prior to the taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to the Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company or Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by the Grantee by (1) withholding a number of Shares otherwise deliverable equal to the Retained Share Amount (as defined below); (2) withholding from the Grantee’s wages or other cash compensation paid by the Company and/or Employer; and/or (3) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the Option (e.g. through cashless exercise), either through a voluntary sale or through a sale arranged by the Company (on the Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), to the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator. The “Retained Share Amount” shall mean a number of Shares equal to the quotient of the minimum statutory tax withholding obligation of the Company triggered by the Option on the relevant date, divided by the fair market value of one Share on the relevant date or as otherwise provided in the Plan. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of Shares as described herein, the Grantee understands that he or she shall be deemed to have been issued the full number of applicable Shares, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.
Grantee acknowledges and understands that Grantee should consult a tax advisor regarding Grantee’s tax obligations.
Section 6.SEVERABILITY
In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.
Section 7.DATA PROTECTION
The Grantee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Grantee’s personal data as described in this document by and among, as applicable, the Employer, and the Company and its subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that the Company, its subsidiaries and the Employer hold certain personal information about the Grantee, including, but not limited to, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the

The Grantee understands that he/she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting the local human resources representative. The Grantee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data, as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired under the Plan. The Grantee understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that he/she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data, require any necessary amendments to the Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting the local human resources representative in writing. The Grantee understands that refusing or withdrawing consent may affect the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of refusing to consent or withdrawing consent, the Grantee understands that he/she may contact the Plan administrator at the Company.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This Appendix A, which is part of the Agreement, includes additional terms and conditions of the Agreement that will apply to you if you are a resident in one of the countries listed below. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and the Agreement.
NOTIFICATIONS
This Appendix A also includes information regarding exchange control and certain other issues of which you should be aware with respect to your participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of January 2020. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that you not rely on the information in this Appendix A as the only source of information relating to the consequences of your participation in the Plan because such information may be out-of-date when your Options vest and/or you sell any Shares acquired under the Plan.
In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to your particular situation. As a result, the Company is not in a position to assure you of any particular result. You are therefore advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in your country may apply to your situation.
Finally, if you are a citizen or resident of a country other than that in which you are currently working, the information contained herein may not apply to you.
GRANT-SPECIFIC TERMS

The information disclosed may not be the same as that which must be disclosed in a prospectus prepared under Australian law.

You are encouraged to seek legal advice prior to any resale of such securities. In general, participants resident in Canada may resell their securities in transactions carried out on exchanges outside of Canada.
Tax Reporting. The Tax Act and the regulations thereunder require a Canadian resident individual (among others) to file an information return (Form T1135) disclosing prescribed information where, at any time in a tax year, the total cost amount of such individual’s “specified foreign property” (which includes Shares) exceeds Cdn.$100,000.

Notifications
Exchange Control Information. Cross-border payments in excess of EUR12,500 must be reported monthly to the German Federal Bank.

THE NETHERLANDS
Terms and Conditions
There are no country-specific provisions.
Notifications
Insider-Trading Notification. Grantees should be aware of the Dutch insider-trading rules, which may impact the sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option. In particular, Grantees may be prohibited from effectuating certain transactions involving Shares if they have inside information about the Company. Grantees should consult their personal legal advisor if they are uncertain whether the insider-trading rules apply to them. By accepting the Agreement and participating in the Plan, Grantee acknowledges having read and understood this notification and acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with the Dutch insider-trading rules.
RUSSIA
Terms and Conditions
Securities Law Information. Grantee acknowledges that the Agreement, the grant of options, the Plan and all other materials that Grantee may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia. The issuance of securities pursuant to the Plan has not and will not be registered in Russia and therefore, the securities described in any Plan-related documents may not be used for offering or public circulation in Russia.
Grantee further acknowledges that in no event will Shares acquired upon exercise of the options be delivered to Grantee in Russia; all Shares acquired upon exercise of the options will be maintained on Grantee’s behalf in the United States.
Grantee acknowledges that Grantee is not permitted to sell Shares directly to a Russian legal entity or resident.
Notifications
Grantee understands that Grantee is solely liable for all applicable Russian exchange control requirements (including repatriation requirements applicable to the proceeds from the sale of Shares).
SOUTH AFRICA

Terms and Conditions

There are no country-specific provisions.

Notifications

Exchange Control Information. To participate in the Plan, Grantee understands that Grantee must comply with exchange control regulations and rulings (the “Exchange Control Regulations”) in South Africa.

Because the Exchange Control Regulations change frequently and without notice, Grantee understands that Grantee should consult a legal advisor prior to the purchase or sale of shares under the Plan to ensure compliance with current regulations. Grantee understands that it is Grantee’s responsibility to comply with South African exchange control laws, and neither the Company nor your Employer will be liable for any fines or penalties resulting from failure to comply with applicable laws.

Exhibit 10.27
SPAIN
Terms and Conditions
There are no country-specific provisions.

Notifications

No Special Employment or Similar Rights. Grantee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously, and discretionally decided to distribute awards under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its subsidiaries throughout the world. The decision is a temporary decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its subsidiaries presently or in the future, other than as specifically set forth in the Plan and the terms and conditions of Grantee’s option grant. Consequently, Grantee understands that any grant is given on the assumption and condition that it shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purpose (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Further, Grantee understands and freely accepts that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from any gratuitous and discretionary grant since the future value of the awards and underlying shares is unknown and unpredictable. In addition, Grantee understands that this grant would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Grantee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of awards shall be null and void and the Plan shall not have any effect whatsoever.

Further, the Option provides a conditional right to Shares and may be forfeited or affected by Grantee’s termination of employment, as set forth in the Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, Grantee’s rights, if any, to the Options upon termination of employment shall be determined as set forth in the Agreement, including, without limitation, where (i) Grantee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (ii) Grantee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (iii) Grantee terminates service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; or (iv) Grantee terminates service due to the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ unilateral breach of contract.

Securities Law Notice. The options granted under the Plan do not qualify as securities under Spanish regulations. By the grant of the options, no "offer of securities to the public", as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in Spanish territory. The present document and any other document relating to the offer of options under the Plan has not been nor will it be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (Spanish Securities Exchange Commission), and it does not constitute a public offering prospectus.
Foreign Asset and Account Reporting. To the extent that Spanish residents hold rights or assets (e.g., shares of common stock, cash, etc.) in a bank or brokerage account outside of Spain with a value in excess of €50,000 per type of right or asset as of December 31 each year, such residents are required to report information on such rights and assets on their tax return for such year. Shares of common stock constitute securities for purposes of this requirement, but Options (whether vested or unvested) are generally not considered assets or rights for purposes of this requirement.
If applicable, Spanish residents must report the assets or rights on Form 720 by no later than March 31 following the end of the relevant year. After such assets or rights are initially reported, the reporting obligation will only apply for subsequent years if the value of any previously-reported assets or rights increases by more than €20,000. Failure to comply with this reporting requirement may result in penalties.
Spanish residents are also required to electronically declare to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the securities held in such accounts, if the value of the transactions for all such accounts during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year exceeds €1,000,000. More frequent reporting is required if such transaction value or account balance exceeds €1,000,000.
Spanish residents should consult with their personal tax and legal advisors to ensure compliance with their personal reporting obligations.
Exchange Control Information. All acquisitions of foreign shares by Spanish residents must comply with exchange control regulations in Spain. Because of foreign investments requirements, the acquisition of Company shares under the Plan must be declared for statistical purposes to the Spanish Direccion General de Politica Comercial y de Inversiones Extranjeras (the “DGPCIE“). If you acquire the Shares
    - 8 -


Exhibit 10.27
through the use of a Spanish financial institution, that institution will automatically make the declaration to the DGPCIE for you. Otherwise, you must make the declaration by filling a form with the DGPCIE.
If you import the Shares acquired under the Plan into Spain, you must declare the importation of the share certificates to the DGPCIE.
In addition, you must also file a declaration of the ownership of the Shares with the Directorate of Foreign Transactions each January while the Shares are owned. These filings are made on standard forms furnished by the Directorate of Foreign Transactions.
When you receive any foreign currency payments (i.e., as a result of the sale of the Shares), you must inform the institution receiving the payment of the basis upon which such payment is made and provide certain specific information (e.g., name, address, and fiscal identification number; the name and corporate domicile of the company; the amount of the payment; the type of foreign currency received; the country of origin; and the reason for the payment).
UNITED KINGDOM
Terms and Conditions
UK Rules. The Option is granted under the “UK Rules,” which contain additional terms and conditions that govern the Option. Grantees should review the UK Rules carefully.
Notifications
There are no country-specific notifications.

Exhibit 10.28
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement ("Agreement") entered into as of December 23, 2020 (the "Grant Date"), by and between Fluor Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and you ("Grantee" or “you”) evidences the grant to Grantee of a Stock Unit Award (“RSU Award”) pursuant to Rule 303A.08 of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the Plan (as defined below).
Section 1.EMPLOYMENT INDUCEMENT AWARD
This RSU Award is an employment inducement award made in accordance with Rule 303A.08 of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual and is not granted under any stock incentive plan adopted by the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, this RSU Award shall be construed as if the RSU Award had been granted under the Fluor Corporation 2020 Performance Incentive Plan (the "Plan") in accordance with and consistent with, and shall be treated as subject to, all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, including any terms, rules or determinations made by the Committee pursuant to its administrative authority under the Plan, and such further terms as are set forth in the Plan that are applicable to awards thereunder, including without limitation provisions on adjustment of awards, non-transferability, satisfaction of tax requirements and compliance with other laws.
Section 2.RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD
The Company hereby awards Grantee restricted stock units (“RSUs”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of Company common stock, par value $.01 per share (“Shares”), pursuant to this RSU Award, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Section 3 and Section 4 hereof, upon the issuance to Grantee of Shares hereunder, Grantee shall also receive cash in an amount equivalent to any dividends or distributions paid or made by the Company from the date of this RSU Award to the date of the issuance of the Shares with respect to an equivalent number of Shares so issued.
Section 3.RESTRICTIONS ON SALE OR OTHER TRANSFER
Each RSU awarded to Grantee pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to forfeiture to the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein and each RSU may not be sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to the following provisions:
(a)The RSUs shall be held in book entry form by the Company until (1) the restrictions set forth herein lapse in accordance with the provisions of Section 4, at which time the RSUs will be converted to Shares, or (2) the RSUs are forfeited pursuant to Section 4 hereof.
(b)No such RSUs may be sold, transferred or otherwise alienated or hypothecated so long as such RSUs are subject to the restrictions provided for in this Agreement.
(c)The Company may impose such other restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any re-sales by the Grantee or other subsequent transfers by the Grantee of any Shares issued as a result of the vesting of the RSUs, including without limitation (i) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (ii) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Grantee and other stockholders of the Company and (iii) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such re-sales or other transfers.
Section 4.LAPSE OF RESTRICTIONS
The RSUs subject to this RSU Award shall vest and restrictions thereon shall lapse at a rate of one fifth of such number per year commencing with December 23, 2021 and annually thereafter ending on December 23, 2025, provided that Grantee’s employment has not terminated on or before such date unless one of the exceptions set forth below in this Section 4 is met. The Company will issue you the Shares subject to this RSU Award (as well as any cash payments related to dividends or distributions related to such Shares) as soon as reasonably possible after each date on which the applicable restrictions lapse or any other date upon which this RSU Award vests as set forth below in this Section 4.
If your employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries terminates for any reason other than death, Disability or a Qualifying Termination, each as defined below and determined by the Committee in accordance with the Plan, then as of the date of such termination any RSUs which have yet to vest shall be forfeited by you in exchange for no additional consideration or payment. If prior to the RSUs becoming vested in full pursuant to the preceding paragraph, your employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries terminates by reason of your death, Disability or a Qualifying Termination, each as determined by the Committee in accordance with the Plan, then any portion of this RSU Award which has yet to become vested shall become immediately vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing and regardless of the reason for termination, under all circumstances other than your Qualifying Termination, any RSUs held less than one year from the Grant Date shall be forfeited in exchange for no additional consideration or payment. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement confers any right of continuing employment with the Company or its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in the event of a Change of Control the successor to the Company does not assume this RSU Award, then any portion of this RSU Award which has
    - 1 -


Exhibit 10.28
yet to become vested and which has not otherwise been forfeited pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4 shall become immediately vested. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event your employment is terminated for Cause (as defined herein), you shall forfeit the unvested RSUs in exchange for no additional consideration or payment, unless otherwise prohibited by law.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” and “Change of Control” shall have the meanings given to them in Appendix B to this Agreement. The term “Qualifying Termination” means your involuntary termination of employment by the Company, without Cause, within two (2) years following a Change of Control of the Company. For this purpose, “Cause” means your dishonesty, fraud, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty, conflict of interest, commission of a felony, material failure or refusal to perform your job duties in accordance with Company policies, material violation of Company policy that causes harm to the Company or its subsidiaries or other wrongful conduct of a similar nature and degree.
Section 5.ТАХ WITHHOLDING
Regardless of any action the Company or the Grantee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of RSUs, including the grant and vesting of RSUs, subsequent delivery of Shares and/or cash related to such RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs and receipt of any dividend equivalent payments (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items. The Grantee shall pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or receipt of RSUs or of Shares pursuant to RSUs that cannot be satisfied by the means described below. Further, if the Grantee is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the Shares if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
Prior to the taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to the Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company or Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by the Grantee by (1) withholding a number of Shares otherwise deliverable equal to the Retained Share Amount (as defined below); (2) withholding from the Grantee’s wages or other cash compensation paid by the Company and/or Employer; and/or (3) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the RSUs, either through a voluntary sale or through a sale arranged by the Company (on the Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), to the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator. The “Retained Share Amount” shall mean a number of Shares equal to the quotient of the minimum statutory tax withholding obligation of the Company triggered by the RSUs on the relevant date, divided by the fair market value of one Share on the relevant date or as otherwise provided in the Plan. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of Shares as described herein, the Grantee understands that he or she shall be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the settled RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the settlement of the RSUs.
Grantee acknowledges and understands that Grantee should consult a tax advisor regarding Grantee’s tax obligations.
Section 6.SEVERABILITY
In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.
Section 7.DATA PROTECTION
The Grantee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Grantee’s personal data as described in this document by and among, as applicable, the Employer, and the Company and its subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that the Company, its subsidiaries and the Employer hold certain personal information about the Grantee, including, but not limited to, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all options or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, purchased, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor for the purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan (“Data”). The Grantee understands that the Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Grantee’s country or elsewhere, including outside the European economic area, and that the recipient country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Grantee’s country. The Grantee understands that he/she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the
    - 2 -


Exhibit 10.28
Data by contacting the local human resources representative. The Grantee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data, as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired under the Plan. The Grantee understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that he/she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data, require any necessary amendments to the Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting the local human resources representative in writing. The Grantee understands that refusing or withdrawing consent may affect the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of refusing to consent or withdrawing consent, the Grantee understands that he/she may contact the Plan Administrator at the Company.
Section 8.ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND WAIVER
By accepting this grant of RSUs, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that:
(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, and it is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time unless otherwise provided in the Plan or this Agreement;
(b)the grant of RSUs is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Shares or RSUs, or benefits in lieu of Shares or RSUs, even if Shares or RSUs have been granted repeatedly in the past;
(c)all decisions with respect to future grants, if any, shall be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d)this Agreement shall not create a right to further employment with Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of Employer to terminate the Grantee’s employment relationship, and it is expressly agreed and understood that employment is terminable at the will of either party, insofar as permitted by law;
(e)the Grantee is receiving RSUs voluntarily;
(f)RSU awards and resulting benefits are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and are outside the scope of the Grantee’s employment contract, if any;
(g)RSU awards and resulting benefits are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, or end of service payments, or bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments insofar as permitted by law;
(h)in the event that the Grantee is not an employee of the Company, this award of RSUs shall not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company, and furthermore, this award of RSUs shall not be interpreted to form an employment contract with the Employer or any subsidiary of the Company;
(i)the future value of the Shares is unknown, may increase or decrease from the date of award or vesting of the RSU and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(j)in consideration of this grant of RSUs, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination or diminution in value of this grant of RSUs resulting from termination of the Grantee’s employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever), and the Grantee irrevocably releases the Company and the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by accepting the terms of this Agreement, the Grantee shall be irrevocably deemed to have waived any entitlement to pursue such claim; and
(k)the award evidenced by this Agreement is subject to all Company policies relating to the clawback and/or recoupment of compensation, as the same may be amended from time to time, and to the extent the Grantee is subject to such policies, the terms and conditions of such policies are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

As a result, the Company is not in a position to assure you of any particular result.

THE NETHERLANDS
Terms and Conditions

Notifications
Insider-Trading Notification. Grantees should be aware of the Dutch insider-trading rules, which may impact the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSU. In particular, Grantees may be prohibited from effectuating certain transactions involving Shares if they have inside information about the Company. Grantees should consult their personal legal advisor if they are uncertain whether the insider-trading rules apply to them. By accepting the Agreement and participating in the Plan, Grantee acknowledges having read and understood this notification and acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with the Dutch insider-trading rules.
RUSSIA
Terms and Conditions
Securities Law Information. Grantee acknowledges that the Agreement, the grant of RSUs, the Plan and all other materials Grantee may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia. The issuance of securities pursuant to the Plan has not and will not be registered in Russia and therefore, the securities described in any Plan-related documents may not be used for offering or public circulation in Russia.
Grantee further acknowledges that in no event will Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSUs be delivered to Grantee in Russia; all Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSUs will be maintained on Grantee’s behalf in the United States.
Grantee acknowledges that Grantee is not permitted to sell Shares directly to a Russian legal entity or resident.

SOUTH AFRICA

Terms and Conditions

There are no country-specific provisions.

Notifications

Exchange Control Information. To participate in the Plan, Grantee understands that Grantee must comply with exchange control regulations and rulings (the “Exchange Control Regulations”) in South Africa.

For RSUs, because no transfer of funds from South Africa is required, no filing or reporting requirements should apply when the RSUs, if any, are granted or when shares are issued upon vesting and settlement of the RSUs.

Because the Exchange Control Regulations change frequently and without notice, Grantee understands that Grantee should consult a legal advisor prior to the purchase or sale of shares under the Plan to ensure compliance with current regulations. Grantee understands
    - 7 -


Exhibit 10.28
that it is Grantee’s responsibility to comply with South African exchange control laws, and neither the Company nor Grantee’s Employer will be liable for any fines or penalties resulting from failure to comply with applicable laws.
SPAIN

Terms and Conditions

There are no country-specific provisions.

Notifications

No Special Employment or Similar Rights. Grantee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously, and discretionally decided to distribute awards under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its subsidiaries throughout the world. The decision is a temporary decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its subsidiaries presently or in the future, other than as specifically set forth in the Plan and the terms and conditions of Grantee’s RSU grant. Consequently, Grantee understands that any grant is given on the assumption and condition that it shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purpose (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Further, Grantee understands and freely accepts that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from any gratuitous and discretionary grant since the future value of the awards and underlying shares is unknown and unpredictable. In addition, Grantee understands that this grant would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Grantee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of awards shall be null and void and the Plan shall not have any effect whatsoever.

Further, the RSU Award provides a conditional right to Shares and may be forfeited or affected by Grantee’s termination of employment, as set forth in the Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, Grantee’s rights, if any, to the RSUs upon termination of employment shall be determined as set forth in the Agreement, including, without limitation, where (i) Grantee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (ii) Grantee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (iii) Grantee terminates service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; or (iv) Grantee terminates service due to the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ unilateral breach of contract.

Securities Law Notice. The RSUs granted under the Plan do not qualify as securities under Spanish regulations. By the grant of RSUs, no "offer of securities to the public", as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in Spanish territory. The present document and any other document relating to the offer of RSUs under the Plan has not been nor will it be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (Spanish Securities Exchange Commission), and it does not constitute a public offering prospectus.
Foreign Asset and Account Reporting. To the extent that Spanish residents hold rights or assets (e.g., shares of common stock, cash, etc.) in a bank or brokerage account outside of Spain with a value in excess of €50,000 per type of right or asset as of December 31 each year, such residents are required to report information on such rights and assets on their tax return for such year. Shares of common stock constitute securities for purposes of this requirement, but unvested rights (e.g., RSUs) are not considered assets or rights for purposes of this requirement.
If applicable, Spanish residents must report the assets or rights on Form 720 by no later than March 31 following the end of the relevant year. After such assets or rights are initially reported, the reporting obligation will only apply for subsequent years if the value of any previously-reported assets or rights increases by more than €20,000. Failure to comply with this reporting requirement may result in penalties.
Spanish residents are also required to electronically declare to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the securities held in such accounts, if the value of the transactions for all such accounts during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year exceeds €1,000,000. More frequent reporting is required if such transaction value or account balance exceeds €1,000,000.
Spanish residents should consult with their personal tax and legal advisors to ensure compliance with their personal reporting obligations.
Exchange Control Information. All acquisitions of foreign shares by Spanish residents must comply with exchange control regulations in Spain. Because of foreign investments requirements, the acquisition of Company shares under the Plan must be declared for statistical purposes to the Spanish Direccion General de Politica Comercial y de Inversiones Extranjeras (the “DGPCIE“). If you acquire the Shares
    - 8 -


Exhibit 10.28
through the use of a Spanish financial institution, that institution will automatically make the declaration to the DGPCIE for you. Otherwise, you must make the declaration by filling a form with the DGPCIE.
If you import the Shares acquired under the Plan into Spain, you must declare the importation of the share certificates to the DGPCIE.
In addition, you must also file a declaration of the ownership of the Shares with the Directorate of Foreign Transactions each January while the Shares are owned. These filings are made on standard forms furnished by the Directorate of Foreign Transactions.
When you receive any foreign currency payments (i.e., as a result of the sale of the Shares), you must inform the institution receiving the payment of the basis upon which such payment is made and provide certain specific information (e.g., name, address, and fiscal identification number; the name and corporate domicile of the company; the amount of the payment; the type of foreign currency received; the country of origin; and the reason for the payment).

Exhibit 10.28
Compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code
(a)    It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”), and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A.
(b)    Neither Grantee nor any of Grantee’s creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Agreement to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable to Grantee or for Grantee’s benefit under this Agreement may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by Grantee to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
(c)    If, at the time of Grantee’s separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A), (i) Grantee is a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time) and (ii) the Company shall make a good faith determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A, then the Company shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement but shall instead pay it, without interest, on the first business day after such six-month period or, if earlier, upon the Grantee’s death.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for the purpose of this Agreement, (i) if the RSUs have not previously been forfeited, the RSUs shall vest on a Disability, which shall mean that the Grantee is considered disabled in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(i)(4), determined as if all permissible provisions of such regulation were in effect, and (ii) a Change of Control of the Company is considered to have occurred with respect to the Grantee upon the occurrence with respect to the Grantee of a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, as determined in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(i)(5).
(e)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, the Company reserves the right to make amendments to this Agreement as the Company deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A. In any case, Grantee shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on Grantee or for Grantee’s account in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold Grantee harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.

FORM OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this "Agreement") entered into as of [DATE] (the “Grant Date”), by and between Fluor Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and you ("Grantee" or “you”) evidences and confirms the grant to Grantee of a Restricted Stock Unit Award (“RSU Award”) under the Fluor Corporation 2020 Performance Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the "Plan").

Subject to the provisions of Section 3 hereof, upon the issuance to Grantee of Shares hereunder, Grantee shall also receive cash in an amount equivalent to any dividends or distributions paid or made by the Company from the date of this RSU Award to the date of the issuance of the Shares with respect to an equivalent number of Shares so issued. All or a portion of this RSU Award, as well as associated dividends or dividend equivalents, may be further deferred by Grantee pursuant to the terms of the Fluor Corporation 409A Director Deferred Compensation Program.

Further, if the Grantee is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

The Grantee understands that he/she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting the local human resources representative. The Grantee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data, as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired under the Plan.

SECTION 1.04.    Pro Forma Calculations
.
All pro forma computations required to be made hereunder giving effect to any acquisition or disposition, or issuance, incurrence or assumption of Debt, or other transaction shall in each case be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto (and, in the case of any pro forma computation made hereunder to determine whether such acquisition or disposition, or issuance, incurrence or assumption of Debt, or other transaction is permitted to be consummated hereunder, to any other such transaction consummated since the first day of the period covered by any component of such pro forma computation and on or prior to the date of such computation) as if such transaction had occurred on the first day of the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending with the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements shall have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), and, to the extent applicable, to the historical earnings and cash flows associated with the assets acquired or disposed of and any related incurrence or reduction of Debt. If any Debt bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Debt shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Swap Agreement applicable to such Debt). All such pro forma calculations described in this Section shall be made reasonably and in good faith by a financial officer of the Borrower.
SECTION 1.05.    Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification
.
The interest rate on a Revolving Advance denominated in an Agreed Loan Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for
41


purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 2.05(e)(ii)(B) and Section 2.05(e)(ii)(C) provide a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.05(e)(ii)(E), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” (or “EURIBO Rate” or “CDOR Rate”, as applicable) or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.05(e)(ii)(B) or Section 2.05(e)(ii)(C), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.05(e)(ii)(D)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate (or the EURIBO Rate or the CDOR Rate, as applicable) or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate (or the euro interbank offered rate or the Canadian Dollar interbank offered rate, as applicable) prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.
SECTION 1.06.    Letter of Credit Amounts
.
Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the amount of such Letter of Credit available to be drawn at such time; provided that, with respect to any Escalating LC, the amount of such Escalating LC shall be deemed to be the maximum amount of such Escalating LC after giving effect to all increases provided for therein or in the Application related thereto, whether or not such maximum amount is available to be drawn at such time.
SECTION 1.07.    Divisions
.
For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

To request a Revolving Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request (pursuant to a Notice of Revolving Borrowing) (i) not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to the date of such Revolving Borrowing if such Revolving Borrowing consists of Base Rate Revolving Advances, (ii) not later than 12:00 noon (Local Time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of such Revolving Borrowing if such Revolving Borrowing consists of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances denominated in Dollars and (iii) not later than 12:00 noon (Local Time) on the fourth Business Day prior to the date of such Revolving Borrowing if such Revolving Borrowing consists of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency.

account of its Lending Office to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Revolving Borrowing by depositing immediately available funds in the applicable Agreed Loan Currency in the Administrative Agent’s Account. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Revolving Borrowing hereunder that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Revolving Borrowing in accordance with the terms hereof and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, but shall not be required to, make available to or for the account of the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent makes such ratable portion available to the Borrower, such Lender and the Borrower, without prejudice to any rights or remedies that the Borrower may have against such Lender, severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to or for the account of the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Advances comprising such Revolving Borrowing, and (B) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Revolving Advances denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency). If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Advance as part of the relevant Revolving Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement and, to the extent that the Borrower previously paid such amount to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent will refund to the Borrower such amount so paid, but without interest.
(c)    Disbursement of Revolving Advances. Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make funds for any Revolving Borrowing available to the Borrower by crediting such amount to the account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Revolving Borrowing, subject to the Administrative Agent’s receipt of funds from the Lenders, and provided that the Administrative Agent shall first make a portion of such funds equal to any outstanding LC Disbursement under any Letter of Credit and any interest accrued and unpaid thereon to and as of such date, available to the applicable Issuing Lender for reimbursement of such LC Disbursement and payment of such interest.
SECTION 2.03.    Repayment of Revolving Advances.
The Borrower shall repay to each Lender (in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.14(a)) on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Advances made to the Borrower and owing to such Lender outstanding on the Maturity Date.
SECTION 2.04.    Optional and Mandatory Prepayments of Revolving Advances; Voluntary Termination or Reduction of Commitments.
(a)    Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall be given not later than (i) 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the day of prepayment in the case of prepayment of Base Rate Revolving Advances, (ii) 12:00 noon (Local Time) three Business Days in advance in the case of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances denominated in Dollars or (iii) 12:00 noon (Local Time) four Business Days in advance in the case of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency) stating the proposed
44


date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment and the Interest Type of Revolving Advances to be prepaid (and if such notice is given the Borrower shall), prepay in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, the outstanding principal of Revolving Advances of such Interest Type, together with, in the case of any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances, interest thereon to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid (plus, in the case of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period, any additional amount for which the Borrower shall be obligated pursuant to Section 8.03(c)); provided, however, that each partial prepayment of Revolving Advances shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $3,000,000 (or, if such Revolving Advance is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, 3,000,000 units of such currency) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or, if such Revolving is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, 1,000,000 units of such currency) in excess thereof.
(b)    Application of Prepayments. Prepayments of the Revolving Advances made pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be first applied to prepay LC Disbursements then outstanding until such LC Disbursements are paid in full, and second applied to prepay Revolving Advances then outstanding comprising part of the same Revolving Borrowings until such Revolving Advances are paid in full. The amount remaining (if any) after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Advances then outstanding shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.14(d).
(c)    Voluntary Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, irrevocably terminate the Aggregate Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if such reduction, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, would result in (x) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Aggregate Commitments, (y) the Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Advances and the LC Exposure in respect of Financial Letters of Credit exceeding the Revolving Facility Sublimit. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable Percentage. All fees accrued in respect of the Aggregate Commitments until the effective date of any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination or reduction, as applicable.
(d)    Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time (including on any Computation Date) (i) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Aggregate Commitments, (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Advances and the LC Exposure in respect of Financial Letters of Credit exceeding the Revolving Facility Sublimit, (iii) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Advances denominated in Canadian Dollars exceeding the Canadian Dollar Sublimit or (iv) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Advances denominated in Pounds Sterling exceeding the Pounds Sterling Sublimit (any such excess amounts described in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), the “Loan Excess”), in each case, by $10,000,000 or more, the Administrative Agent shall provide notice thereof to the Borrower and demand the repayment of outstanding Revolving Advances pursuant to this paragraph. Within one (1) Business Day after the Business Day on which the Borrower receives such notice, the Borrower shall repay outstanding Revolving Advances in an amount sufficient to eliminate the full amount of such Loan
45


Excess. The Administrative Agent shall produce copies of any calculations or reports relating to the foregoing upon written request from the Borrower or any Lender.
SECTION 2.05.    Interest on Revolving Advances.
The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Advance made to the Borrower from the date of such Revolving Advance until such principal is paid in full at the applicable rate set forth below.
(a)    Interest on Base Rate Revolving Advances. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of each Base Rate Revolving Advance made to the Borrower, from the date of such Base Rate Revolving Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date, at a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal, subject to Section 2.05(d), to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate in effect from time to time.
(b)    Interest Periods for Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances. The Borrower may, pursuant to Section 2.05(c), elect to have the interest on the principal amount of all or any portion of any Revolving Advances made or to be made to the Borrower under Section 2.01, in each case ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of Revolving Advances owing to each Lender, determined and payable for the applicable Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance) in accordance with Section 2.05(c), provided, however, that the Borrower may not (i) make any such election with respect to any LC Disbursements, or (ii) have more than ten Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances owing to any Lender outstanding at any one time.
(c)    Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances. The Borrower may from time to time, on the condition that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.05(b) and 2.05(e), elect to pay interest on all or any portion of any Revolving Advances made to the Borrower during any Interest Period therefor at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the applicable Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Revolving Advances plus the Applicable Rate in effect from time to time, by notice, specifying the amount of the Revolving Advances as to which such election is made (which amount shall aggregate at least $3,000,000 (or, if such Revolving Advance is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, 3,000,000 units of such currency) or any multiple of $1,000,000 (or, if such Revolving Advance is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, 1,000,000 units of such currency) in excess thereof) and the first day and duration of such Interest Period, received by the Administrative Agent before 12:00 noon (Local Time) (i) three Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period if the applicable Revolving Advance is denominated in Dollars or (ii) four Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period if the applicable Revolving Advance is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency. If the Borrower has made such election for Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances for any Interest Period, the Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances during such Interest Period, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, in the case of any Interest Period which is longer than three months, on each three-month anniversary of the first day of such Interest Period, in each case at a rate equal, subject to Section 2.05(d), to the sum of the applicable Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances plus the Applicable Rate in effect from time to time during such Interest Period. On the last day of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance, (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars, the unpaid principal balance thereof shall automatically become and bear interest as a Base Rate Revolving Advance,
46


except to the extent that the Borrower has elected to pay interest on all or any portion of such amount for a new Interest Period commencing on such day in accordance with this Section 2.05(c) and (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, the unpaid principal balance thereof shall automatically become and bear interest as a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance with an Interest Period of one month, except to the extent that the Borrower has elected to pay interest on all or any portion of such amount for a new Interest Period commencing on such day in accordance with this Section 2.05(c). Each notice by the Borrower under this Section 2.05(c) shall be irrevocable upon receipt by the Administrative Agent.
(d)    Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) interest shall accrue, after as well as before judgment, on any Revolving Advance then outstanding at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to such Revolving Advance (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include the Applicable Rate); provided that, (A) in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance shall thereupon become a Base Rate Revolving Advance and shall thereafter bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Revolving Advances and (B) in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance shall thereupon become a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance with an Interest Period of one month and shall thereafter bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances, (ii) Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue, after as well as before judgment, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the rate otherwise payable under this Agreement, (iii) reimbursement obligations in respect of LC Disbursements payable under Section 2.09(a) shall accrue, after as well as before judgment, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the Letter of Credit Fee plus the Base Rate in effect from time to time and (iv) interest shall accrue, to the fullest extent permitted by law, after as well as before judgment, and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11 or clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, on any overdue principal, interest or other amounts payable hereunder (including the Commitment Fee) at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to Base Rate Revolving Advances. Such interest and other amounts shall be payable upon demand. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.05(d) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Credit Party.
(e)    Suspension of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances.
(i)    Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars will automatically, upon such demand, convert into a Base Rate Revolving Advance, (ii) each Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency shall be due and payable either on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance to such date,
47


or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance and (iii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to convert Revolving Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
(ii)    Alternate Rate of Interest.
(A)    Subject to clauses (B), (C), (D), (E), (F) and (G) of this Section 2.05(e)(ii), if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Borrowing:

(i)    the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBO Rate, the EURIBO Rate, the Adjusted CDOR Rate or the CDOR Rate, as applicable (including because the Relevant Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable Agreed Loan Currency and such Interest Period, provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or

(ii)    the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBO Rate, the EURIBO Rate, the Adjusted CDOR Rate or the CDOR Rate, , as applicable, for the applicable Agreed Loan Currency and such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Revolving Advances included in such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Loan Currency and such Interest Period.

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Notice of Conversion/Continuation that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Borrowing in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be ineffective, (ii) if any Notice of Revolving Borrowing requests a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Revolving Borrowing and (iii) if any Notice of Revolving Borrowing requests a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Borrowing in a Foreign Loan Currency, then such request shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Interest Type of Borrowings, then the other Interest Type of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance in any Agreed Loan Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.05(e)(ii)(A) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance, then (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Advance (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Revolving Advance shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Base Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars on such day or (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance is denominated in any Agreed Loan Currency (other than Dollars), then such Revolving Advance
48


shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Advance (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (1) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (2) be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and (subject to the remainder of this subclause (2)) shall constitute, a Base Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such Agreed Loan Currency) on such day (it being understood and agreed that if the Borrower does not so prepay such Loan on such day by 12:00 noon, Local Time, the Administrative Agent is authorized to effect such conversion of such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance into a Base Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars), and, in the case of such subclause (2), upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to the aforementioned notice no longer exist, such Base Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars shall then be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in such original Agreed Loan Currency (in an amount equal to the Exchange Equivalent of such Agreed Loan Currency) on the day of such notice being given to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent.

(B)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(C)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, solely with respect to a Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (C) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.

(D)    In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any
49


amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(E)    The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (F) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.05(e)(ii), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.05(e)(ii).

(F)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or the LIBO Rate) and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(G)    Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Revolving Loans or (y) any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance in any Agreed Loan Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance, then (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Advance (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Revolving Advance shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Base Rate Revolving Advance
50


denominated in Dollars on such day or (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance is denominated in any Agreed Loan Currency (other than Dollars), then such Revolving Advance shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Advance (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (1) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (2) be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and (subject to the remainder of this subclause (2)) shall constitute, a Base Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such Agreed Loan Currency) on such day (it being understood and agreed that if the Borrower does not so prepay such Revolving Advance on such day by 12:00 noon, Local Time, the Administrative Agent is authorized to effect such conversion of such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance into a Base Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars), and, in the case of such subclause (2), upon any subsequent implementation of a Benchmark Replacement in respect of such Agreed Loan Currency pursuant to this Section 2.05(e)(ii), such Base Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars shall then be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in such original Agreed Loan Currency (in an amount equal to the Exchange Equivalent of such Agreed Loan Currency) on the day of such implementation, giving effect to such Benchmark Replacement in respect of such Agreed Loan Currency.

(f)    Suspension on Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, convert into a Base Rate Revolving Advance, (ii) each Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, become due and payable, and (iii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to convert Revolving Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances shall be suspended.
SECTION 2.06.    Conversion and Continuation of Revolving Advances.
(a)    Optional. So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, the Borrower shall have the option: (i) to convert at any time all or any part of any Revolving Advance equal to $3,000,000 (or, if such Revolving Advance is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, 3,000,000 units of such currency) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 (or, if such Revolving Advance is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, 1,000,000 units of such currency) in excess of that amount from one Interest Type comprising the same Revolving Borrowing into Revolving Advances of the other Interest Type; provided, a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance unless the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 8.03(c) in connection with any such conversion; or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance, to continue all or any portion of such Revolving Advance equal to $3,000,000 (or, if such Revolving Advance is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, 3,000,000 units of such currency) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 (or, if such Revolving Advance is denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency, 1,000,000 units of such currency) in excess of that amount as a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance. The Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent no later than (i) 12:00 noon (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Revolving Advance), (ii) 12:00 noon (Local Time) at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in Dollars) and (iii) 12:00 noon (Local Time) at least four Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance denominated in a Foreign Loan Currency). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Notice of Conversion/
51


Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall be subject to Section 8.03(c). Each conversion of Revolving Advances comprising part of the same Revolving Borrowing shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their applicable Commitments in respect of the Revolving Facility Sublimit. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section 2.06(a) shall not be construed to permit the Borrower to change the currency of any Revolving Advance or (ii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances that does not comply with Section 2.05(b).
(b)    Mandatory. On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advances denominated in Dollars comprising any Revolving Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $3,000,000, such Revolving Advances shall automatically convert into Base Rate Revolving Advances.
SECTION 2.07.    Issuance of Letters of Credit.
(a)    Letter of Credit Request. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of, and each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the Lenders set forth in Section 2.08 hereof, agrees to issue Financial Letters of Credit and Performance Letters of Credit at any time and from time to time during the period from the Closing Date through the date that is seven Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, and, in any event, not less than five Business Days prior to such requested date of issuance) an Application requesting the issuance of such Letter of Credit and specifying the date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), the address of the beneficiary thereof, the amount and currency of such Letter of Credit, the type of such Letter of Credit (Financial Letter of Credit or Performance Letter of Credit) and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit (and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide notice to each Lender of each issuance of a Letter of Credit hereunder). To request the amendment of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of amendment, and, in any event, not less than three Business Days prior to such requested date of amendment) an Application requesting the amendment of such Letter of Credit and specifying such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such amendment (and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide notice to each Lender of each amendment of a Letter of Credit hereunder). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Lender shall issue or amend any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance or amendment, (i) subject to Section 2.04(d) and Section 2.12(b), the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Aggregate Commitments, (ii) subject to Section 2.04(d) and Section 2.12(b), the Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Advances and the LC Exposure in respect of Financial Letters of Credit would exceed the Revolving Facility Sublimit or (iii) subject to Section 2.12(b), the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit issued and then outstanding by any Issuing Lender exceeds such Issuing Lender’s Applicable LC Sublimit. The applicable Issuing Lender shall obtain written confirmation of the immediately preceding sentence in writing from the Administrative Agent prior to issuing or amending any Letter of Credit hereunder; provided that it is understood and agreed that if the applicable Issuing Lender has not obtained such confirmation from the Administrative Agent, any such Letter of Credit purported to be so issued or amended shall be deemed to not be issued under this Agreement and shall not be part of the Obligations or the Secured Obligations. The Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in respect of each Existing Letter of Credit, and each Lender’s participation obligations in connection therewith, shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement.

(b)    Terms of Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall expire on an expiry date (such date being the “Expiration Date”) not later than the seventh Business Day prior to the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence to the contrary, a Letter of Credit may expire up to six (6) months after the Maturity Date so long as the Borrower (i) cash collateralizes an amount equal to 105% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit or (ii) provides a backstop letter of credit in respect of such Letter of Credit, in each case sixty (60) days prior to the Maturity Date and, in each case, on terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.12(d) and otherwise reasonably acceptable to (and in the case of a backstop letter of credit, by a letter of credit issuer reasonably acceptable to) the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Maturity Date shall be extended pursuant to Section 2.25, “Maturity Date” as referenced in this clause (b) shall refer to the Maturity Date as extended pursuant to Section 2.25; provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including Section 2.25 hereof) or any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Maturity Date, as such term is used in reference to the Issuing Lender or any Letter of Credit issued thereby, may not be extended without the prior written consent of the relevant Issuing Lender. In the event that the applicable Issuing Lender’s office is closed on the applicable Expiration Date, such date shall be extended to the next Business Day on which such office is open. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued hereunder so long as the applicable Issuing Lender, in its sole discretion, determines that (i) such issuance is lawful, (ii) in the case of Financial Letters of Credit, such Letter of Credit qualifies as (x) a financial guarantee-type letter of credit under applicable rules and regulations and (y) in the case of backing Financial Letters of Credit, an independent undertaking for regulatory purposes, (iii) in the case of Performance Letters of Credit, such Letter of Credit qualifies as (x) a performance based letter of credit under applicable rules and regulations and (y) in the case of backing Performance Letters of Credit, an independent undertaking for regulatory purposes and (iv) such issuance does not violate any terms or provisions of this Agreement or any limitations on the amount of Letters of Credit an Issuing Lender may issue hereunder as separately agreed between the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or in a Foreign LC Currency. The face or stated amount of any Letter of Credit shall not be less than $100,000 (or the Exchange Equivalent thereof determined as of the date of issuance) or such lesser amount as is acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender. At no time shall (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances of all of the Lenders plus the aggregate LC Exposure (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) of all of the Lenders exceed the Aggregate Commitments or (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances of all of the Lenders plus the aggregate LC Exposure (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) in respect of Financial Letters of Credit exceed the Revolving Facility Sublimit. The applicable Issuing Lender shall not be under any obligation to issue or amend any Letter of Credit if (i) the issuance or amendment of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the applicable Issuing Lender or any limitations on the amount of Letters of Credit such Issuing Lender may issue hereunder as separately agreed between the Issuing Lender and the Borrower or (ii) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the applicable Issuing Lender from issuing or amending such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of any Application delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.02 and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. The applicable Issuing Lender will promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of each Letter of Credit issued by it hereunder and each amendment thereto.
(c)    Letters of Credit Issued on behalf of Subsidiaries and Other Related Entities. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of the Borrower on behalf of a Subsidiary or any other Related Entity, the
53


Borrower shall be unconditionally obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit relating thereto. The Borrower will, at its expense, promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Lender may reasonably request in order to effect fully the purposes of this Section 2.07(c).
(d)    Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit.
(e)    Existing Letters of Credit. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.
SECTION 2.08.    Participations in Letters of Credit.
On the Closing Date with respect to each Existing Letter of Credit and upon the issuance of any other Letter of Credit (or upon a Person becoming a Lender hereunder), in each case without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lenders or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the applicable Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such type of Letter of Credit (Financial Letter of Credit or Performance Letter of Credit). In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each such Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated in accordance with the Commitments in respect of the applicable type of Letter of Credit) of each LC Disbursement made by the applicable Issuing Lender and not reimbursed for any reason by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.09 hereof, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations and make payments pursuant to this paragraph in respect of each Letter of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever (other than the issuance of any Letter of Credit in excess of the amounts described in Section 2.07(a) as of the date of issuance and other than amendments to any Letter of Credit in violation of Section 8.05 to provide for an Expiration Date subsequent to the Maturity Date), including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or such participation or payment exceeding such Lender’s Commitments or the Aggregate Commitments or the Revolving Facility Sublimit by reason of currency fluctuations, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
SECTION 2.09.    Reimbursement in Respect of Letters of Credit.
(a)    Reimbursement Obligations. If any Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such LC Disbursement, and the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to such LC Disbursement by paying such Issuing Lender through the Administrative Agent in Dollars an amount equal to such LC Disbursement (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, as applicable): (i) not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately following the date that such Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower that such LC Disbursement is made by such Issuing Lender or (ii), if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day or on a day that is not a
54


Business Day, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the immediately following Business Day. If the Borrower fails to make such payment under this paragraph at the time specified in the preceding sentence, the applicable Issuing Lender shall notify each Lender and the Administrative Agent of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment in Dollars then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. The amounts set forth in such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Upon the receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall be deemed to have submitted, as of the date that such LC Disbursement is made, a Notice of Revolving Borrowing (and shall be deemed to have made certifications, representations and warranties set forth therein) for a Revolving Advance consisting of a Base Rate Revolving Advance in the amount of such LC Disbursement (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, as applicable), (y) if all terms and conditions set forth herein for making a Revolving Advance (other than the receipt of a Notice of Revolving Borrowing) shall have been satisfied, such Revolving Advance shall be made as provided in Sections 2.01 and 2.02 except that the amount of such Revolving Advance shall be disbursed to the applicable Issuing Lender and (z) such Revolving Advance shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof. In the event a Revolving Advance is not made as provided in the immediately preceding sentence for any reason (including as a result of any failure to fulfill the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.02 or Article III) or any Revolving Advance made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is insufficient to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for such LC Disbursement in full, each Lender shall forthwith pay to the applicable Issuing Lender through the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Applicable Percentage of the unreimbursed LC Disbursement. If any amount required to be paid by any Lender in respect of an unreimbursed LC Disbursement pursuant to this Section 2.09 is not made available to the applicable Issuing Lender by such Lender on the date such payment is due (the “due date”), the applicable Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from the due date at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this Section 2.09 to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment received from the Borrower to such Lenders as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligations under this Section 2.09 shall survive the payment by the Borrower of all LC Disbursements and any termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that any reimbursement of an LC Disbursement by the Borrower to any Issuing Lender is required to be repaid to the Borrower (pursuant to a proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise), then the applicable Issuing Lender shall continue to be entitled to recover from each Lender, on demand, the portion of such repaid amount as shall be determined in accordance with this Section 2.09.
(b)    Obligations Absolute. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 2.09(a) 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 and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by any Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof may at any time have against any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, any Credit Party or any other Person, whether under this Agreement or any other related
55


or unrelated agreement or transaction, or (v) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.09, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. The Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Lender. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each determination relating to the foregoing. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
SECTION 2.10.    Disbursement Procedures for Letters of Credit; Reporting.
(a)    Disbursement Procedures for Letters of Credit. The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender or the obligations of the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.
(b)    Reporting. Each Issuing Lender shall, no later than the tenth Business Day following the last day of each month, provide to the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall forward to the Lenders) schedules, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, showing the date of issue, account party, applicable currency, amount in such currency and Expiration Date for each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender hereunder and outstanding at any time during such month.
SECTION 2.11.    Interest on LC Disbursements and Reimbursement of Other Amounts.
In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse any applicable Issuing Lender in full for any LC Disbursement by the time prescribed in Section 2.09(a) and a Revolving Advance is not made as provided in Section 2.09(a) or any Revolving Advance made pursuant to Section 2.09(a) is insufficient to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for such LC Disbursement in full, (i) the unpaid or unreimbursed amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (x) the Letter of Credit Fee and (y) the Base Rate plus 2.0%, and (ii) the Borrower shall also reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender upon demand for any losses incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with changes in the foreign exchange rates as a
56


result of the Borrower’s failure to reimburse such LC Disbursement by the time prescribed in Section 2.09(a). Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.09(a) to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.
SECTION 2.12.    Cash Collateralization.
(a)    Deposit of Collateral Upon an Event of Default. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash in Dollars equal to the 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid fees thereon; provided that (i) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in paragraph (g) or (h) of Section 6.01 and (ii) the Borrower shall be obligated, from time to time and upon demand by the Administrative Agent, to deposit additional amounts into said account in cash in Dollars as necessary to maintain an amount on deposit equal to the amount (including, with respect to LC Exposure denominated in Foreign LC Currencies, the Dollar Equivalent thereof) of the total aggregate LC Exposure plus any accrued and unpaid fees thereon (as determined at any time). All such cash collateral amounts shall be held in a separate account and shall not be commingled with other funds of the Administrative Agent unless the Administrative Agent elects to make a Permitted Cash Equivalent Investment, as described below.
(b)    Deposit of Collateral for Foreign Exchange Differential. In addition to the foregoing, if on any Computation Date (i) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds the Aggregate Commitments, (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Advances and the LC Exposure in respect of Financial Letters of Credit exceeds the Revolving Facility Sublimit or (iii) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit issued and then outstanding by any Issuing Lender exceeds such Issuing Lender’s Applicable LC Sublimit (any such excess amounts described in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the “LC Excess”), in each case, by $10,000,000 or more, the Administrative Agent shall provide notice thereof to the Borrower and demand the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph. Within one (1) Business Day after the Business Day on which the Borrower receives such notice, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, an amount in cash in Dollars equal to the full amount of such LC Excess; provided that the Borrower shall be obligated, from time to time and upon demand by the Administrative Agent, to deposit additional amounts into said account in cash in Dollars as necessary to maintain an amount on deposit equal to the LC Excess (as determined at any time). The Administrative Agent shall produce copies of any calculations or reports relating to the foregoing upon written request from the Borrower or any Lender. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral under this clause (b) as a result of any LC Excess, and the Administrative Agent shall subsequently determine on any Computation Date that the amount of such LC Excess is less than the amount on deposit in respect of the existence of such LC Excess, then (provided there is no Default then in existence) such excess amount of cash, if greater than $1,000,000 (to the extent not applied as aforesaid), shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after request therefor by the Borrower.
57


(c)    Deposit of Collateral for Defaulting Lenders. In addition to the foregoing and subject to Section 2.22, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender and while any LC Exposure exists, for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender and such LC Exposure exists, then within two (2) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall (i) deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, and/or (ii) subject to the following proviso (2), provide Permitted Cover, in each case an amount in cash in Dollars equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate LC Exposure as of such date; provided that (1) the Borrower shall be obligated, from time to time and within two (2) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent demanding the deposit of additional cash collateral and/or Permitted Cover pursuant to this paragraph, to deposit additional amounts into said account in cash in Dollars, and/or to provide additional Permitted Cover, in each case as necessary to maintain an amount on deposit and/or Permitted Cover equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentage of the then aggregate LC Exposure and (2) the foregoing option to provide Permitted Cover in lieu of cash collateral shall only be available to the Borrower for a period not to exceed one (1) month after such notice by the Administrative Agent demanding deposit of cash collateral and upon the expiration of such period, the Borrower shall deposit cash collateral in the amount of such Defaulting Lender's LC Exposure as contemplated by this clause (c) and the failure to provide such deposit shall constitute an Event of Default. Payment by the Borrower of such cash collateral or provision of Permitted Cover shall not relieve the Defaulting Lender of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower shall retain all of its rights and remedies hereunder and under applicable law against any such Defaulting Lender.
(d)    Cash Collateral Accounts. Each deposit and Permitted Cover under Section 2.07(b) and Sections 2.12(a), (b) and (c) shall be held by the Administrative Agent (subject to Section 7.09) as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. If required by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall enter into any pledge or security agreement and any UCC financing statement with respect to such cash collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent shall require. Such deposits shall be invested in Permitted Cash Equivalent Investments selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. All losses and expenses incurred as a result of such Permitted Cash Equivalent Investment activities shall be for the account of the Borrower. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such accounts for the account of the Borrower. Moneys in such accounts shall be applied by the Administrative Agent (i) to reimburse Issuing Lenders for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed; and (ii) to the extent not so applied, may be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or any other Obligations or to cover any losses in respect of any LC Excess; provided that moneys in such accounts relating to the Borrower’s obligations under Section 2.12(c) shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Lenders on a ratable basis for the applicable Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of LC Disbursements for which the Issuing Lenders have not been reimbursed. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, and all Defaults are subsequently cured or waived and no LC Excess is then in existence, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after request therefor by the Borrower. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of any LC Excess, and the Administrative Agent shall subsequently determine that the amount of such LC Excess is equal to or less than the amount on deposit in respect of the existence of such LC Excess, provided there is no Default then in existence, such excess amount of cash, if greater than $1,000,000 (to the extent not applied as aforesaid), shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after request therefor by the Borrower. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount
58


of cash collateral hereunder as a result of any Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender, and such Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender or the LC Exposure and Revolving Advances outstanding are subsequently reduced such that the amount of cash collateral provided therefor exceeds such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the sum of the LC Exposure and Revolving Advances outstanding, such cash collateral (or excess amount of cash collateral, if applicable), to the extent not previously applied to the Defaulting Lender’s obligations hereunder, shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after request therefor by the Borrower.
(e)    Custody of Cash Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof and investment of cash collateral deposits pursuant to the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any cash collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the cash collateral in its possession if the cash collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the cash collateral or for any diminution in the value thereof by reason of the act or omission of any agent or bailee selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith. All expenses and liabilities incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with taking, holding and disposing of any cash collateral (including customary custody and similar fees with respect to any cash collateral held directly by the Administrative Agent), shall be paid by the Borrower from time to time upon demand.
SECTION 2.13.    Obligations.
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower and each Lender shall continue to be bound by all of its obligations hereunder, including without limitation, its obligations under Sections 2.03, 2.08 and 2.09, until such time as all outstanding Revolving Advances have been paid in full, each Letter of Credit has expired and no further Obligation, LC Exposure or Commitment exists.
SECTION 2.14.    General Provisions as to Payments.
(a)    Manner and Time of Payment. The Borrower shall make each payment to be made by it hereunder (including, without limitation, in respect of the LC Disbursements), and interest thereon, and all fees due in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the applicable Agreed Currency (or in the case of LC Disbursements, in Dollars) in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York, New York, without set-off, deduction or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 8.01(a). Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.05(b)(ii), whenever any such payment shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or additional compensation. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time. Any payment made by the Borrower after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any day shall be deemed to have been made on the next Business Day for the purpose of calculating interest on amounts outstanding in respect of any Obligations. All payments required to be made by the Borrower hereunder shall be made in Dollars and shall be made without setoff or counterclaim.
(b)    Application of Payments to Principal and Interest. All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Obligations hereunder shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of any
59


Obligations on a date when interest is due and payable with respect to such Obligations) shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to principal.
(c)    Apportionment of Payments. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share of each payment received by the Administrative Agent which is for the account of the Lenders.
(d)    Application of Funds. Subject to Section 6.03, if applicable, (i) All payments received from the Borrower by the Administrative Agent which are not reasonably identifiable by the Administrative Agent shall be applied by the Administrative Agent against the Obligations, and (ii) any amounts received on account of the Obligations after the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 6.02 (or after the Revolving Advances have automatically become immediately due and payable and the LC Exposure has automatically been required to be cash collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 6.02), in each case in the following order of priority: (A) to the payment of all amounts for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to compensation, reimbursement and indemnification under any Loan Document and all advances made by the Administrative Agent thereunder for the account of the Borrower, and to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan Documents, all in accordance with Sections 7.06 and 8.03 and the other terms of this Agreement and the Loan Documents; (B) thereafter, to the extent of any excess such proceeds, to the payment of all other Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof (subject to the provisions of Section 2.14(b) hereof); and (C) thereafter, to the extent of any excess such proceeds, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by applicable law.
(e)    Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Revolving Advances, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to Section 7.06 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Advance to be made by it as part of any Revolving Borrowing, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 7.06 on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Revolving Advance, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 7.06.
SECTION 2.15.    Computation of Interest and Fees.
Interest on all amounts owed hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest (i) (A) computed by reference to the Base Rate (calculated at other than the NYFRB Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate) and (B) computed by referenced to the CDOR Rate, in each case shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or, if applicable, 366 days and (ii) for Revolving Borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case all interest hereunder shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All fees due and payable hereunder shall, unless expressly otherwise provided for, be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. The applicable Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate, LIBO Rate, Adjusted EURIBO Rate, EURIBO Rate, Adjusted CDOR Rate and CDOR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.16.    Taxes; Net Payments.
(a)    Net Payments. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any
60


and all current or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, fees, assessments, duties, charges or withholdings (including backup withholding) and all liabilities (including interest, additions to tax or penalties) with respect thereto (“Taxes”) except as required by applicable law. If any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent shall be required (as determined in the good faith discretion of such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent) by applicable laws to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, (A) if such Taxes are (i) Taxes other than Excluded Taxes or (ii) Other Taxes (all such non-Excluded Taxes are collectively referred to as “Indemnified Taxes”), the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased by the amount (an “additional amount”) necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16) the applicable Recipient shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (B) such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to make such deductions or withholdings and (C) such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes pursuant to this paragraph (a) by a Loan Party, the relevant Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a receipt issued by the relevant Governmental Authority, if applicable, or other evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent of payment thereof. Each Loan Party shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient and hold each such Recipient harmless, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of all Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid or payable by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared by such Recipient or by the Administrative Agent on such Recipient’s behalf, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. The obligations of each party under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Recipient, termination of this Agreement and the Commitments and the payment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under the Loan Documents.
(b)    Evidence of Exemption from Withholding. To the extent it is legally entitled to do so, each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such certificates, documents or other evidence as the Borrower or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require from time to time as are necessary to establish that such Lender is not subject to withholding, including backup withholding (or is subject to a reduced rate of withholding) under Section 1441 or 1442 of the Code or as may be necessary to establish, under any law hereafter imposing upon the Borrower or the Administrative Agent an obligation to withhold any portion of the payments made under the Loan Documents, that payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender are not subject to withholding (or are subject to a reduced rate of withholding). In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in the following clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and the last sentence of this paragraph (b) and paragraph (c) of this Section) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or
61


commercial position of such Lender. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender which is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a “Foreign Lender”) shall deliver, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date such Foreign Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent): (i) two copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8EXP, as appropriate (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Foreign Lender to establish that such Foreign Lender is not subject to, or is subject to a reduced rate of, deduction or withholding of United States federal income Tax with respect to any payments to such Foreign Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents, (ii) if such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Code, a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10-percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) together with two copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor form) (to the extent such forms document the status of the Foreign Lender as other than a United States Person), properly completed and duly executed by such Foreign Lender, and such other documentation required under the Code and reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to establish that such Foreign Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income Tax with respect to any payments to such Foreign Lender of interest under any of the Loan Documents, (iii) to the extent such Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, two copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable (provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner), and such other documentation required under the Code and reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to establish that such Foreign Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income Tax with respect to any payments to such Foreign Lender of interest under any of the Loan Documents or (iv) executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Each Lender which is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and form time to time thereafter upon reasonable request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is a United States person and is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.
(c)    FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to 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
62


Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (c), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(d)    Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 30 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Loan Parties have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 8.06(c) 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 amounts 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 (d).
(e)    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (e) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(f)    Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
SECTION 2.17.    Increased Costs.
(a)    Change in Law, Etc. In the event that any law, regulation, treaty or directive hereafter enacted, promulgated, approved or issued or any change in any currently existing law, regulation, treaty or directive therein or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental
63


Authority charged with the administration thereof or compliance by any Credit Party (or any Person directly or indirectly owning or controlling such Credit Party) with any request or directive, whether or not having the force of law, from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, agency or instrumentality (including, without limitation, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, in each case regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued) (any such occurrence, a “Change in Law”):
(i)    does or shall subject any Credit Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes addressed by Section 2.16, (B) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(ii)    does or shall impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, assessment, increased cost or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Credit Party in respect of any Advance or any Letter of Credit or participations therein (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the definition of Eurocurrency Rate);
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Credit Party of agreeing to make or of making, funding or maintaining Revolving Advances or of making, issuing, renewing, creating or maintaining any Letter of Credit or participation therein, or its commitment to lend or to issue or create any such Letter of Credit or participate therein, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect of any Revolving Advance or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall pay such Credit Party, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Credit Party for such additional cost or reduction in such amount receivable which such Credit Party deems to be material as determined by such Credit Party. A statement setting forth the calculations of any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by a Credit Party to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Commitments and payment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents. Failure to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall not constitute a waiver of such Credit Party’s right to demand such compensation. To the extent that any increased costs of the type referred to in this Section 2.17 are being incurred by a Credit Party and such costs can be eliminated or reduced by the transfer of such Credit Party’s participation or Commitment to another of its branches, and to the extent that such transfer is not inconsistent with such Credit Party’s internal policies of general application and only if, as determined by such Credit Party in its sole discretion, the transfer of such participation or Commitment, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such participation or such Credit Party, the Borrower may request, and such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to effect, such transfer.
(b)    Capital Adequacy. If after the date hereof, any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements, or any Change in Law occurs, or compliance by any Lender (or its Lending Office or any Person directly or indirectly owning or controlling such Lender) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
64


Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 10 Business Days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.
(c)    Notification. Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.17. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.17 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
SECTION 2.18.    Illegality.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue a Letter of Credit or agree to any extension or amendment thereof if such issuance, creation, extension or amendment would conflict with, or cause any Issuing Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any law or requirements of any applicable Governmental Authority.
SECTION 2.19.    Fees.
(a)    The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the product of the Applicable Rate then in effect times the average daily amount by which (i) the Aggregate Commitments in effect from time to time exceed (ii) the Utilization from time to time. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period through and including the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article III is not met, and shall be payable in arrears on the third Business Day following the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of calculating the LC Exposure in connection with determining the applicable Commitment Fee, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that to the extent any Escalating LC is then issued and outstanding, the applicable Commitment Fee shall accrue at 150% of the Commitment Fee which would be applicable solely by reference to the Applicable Rate multiplied by the difference between (x) the maximum amount (after giving effect to all possible increases) available to be drawn thereunder and (y) the amount then available to be drawn under such Escalating LC.
(b)    The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a letter of credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”), calculated daily with respect to such Lender’s participations in Letters of Credit issued hereunder, equal to the product of (i) the Applicable Rate then in effect times (ii) the actual daily maximum face or stated amount of each Letter of Credit outstanding (in the case of any Escalating LC, such amount shall equal the amount then available to be drawn under such Escalating LC). Letter of Credit Fees payable pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall accrue through and including the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and be payable in arrears on the third Business Day following the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which all
65


Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which all Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. The sum of each daily calculation, if in a currency other than Dollars, shall be converted to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date the applicable payment is due.
(c)    The Borrower agrees to pay directly to each Issuing Lender, for its own account, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, at the rate per annum, and computed on the basis, separately agreed upon between the Borrower and such Issuing Lender, which fronting fee will be paid on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee payable to any Issuing Lender shall accrue through and including the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and be payable in arrears on the third Business Day following the last Business Day of March, June, September and December (or such other day as specified by the applicable Issuing Lender) of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which all Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which all Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Lender, for its own account, such Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon.
(d)    In addition to any of the foregoing fees, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their Affiliates such other fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon.
(e)    All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of Commitment Fees and Letter of Credit Fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. Any fee not due on a specific date shall be due on demand.
SECTION 2.20.    Evidence of Debt.
(a)    Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Revolving Advance made by such Lender to the Borrower, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
(b)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Revolving Advance made to the Borrower hereunder, the Interest Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.
(c)    The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(d)    Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Revolving Note,
66


which shall evidence such Lender’s Revolving Advances in addition to such accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Revolving Note and endorse thereon the date, Interest Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Revolving Advances and payments with respect thereto.
SECTION 2.21.    Use of Proceeds.
The proceeds of the Revolving Advances (other than any Revolving Advances made pursuant to Section 2.09(a)) shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) to provide working capital for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. No portion of the proceeds of any borrowing under this Agreement shall be used by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in any manner that might cause the borrowing or the application of such proceeds to violate Regulation U or any other regulation of the FRB or to violate the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time, and any successor statute, in each case as in effect on the date or dates of such borrowing and such use of proceeds.
SECTION 2.22.    Defaulting Lenders.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)    if any LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated (x) without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and (y) in accordance with the Commitments in respect of the applicable type of Letter of Credit) but only to the extent that (i) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (ii) such reallocation does not cause any Non-Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated (x) without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and (y) in accordance with the Commitments in respect of the applicable type of Letter of Credit) of the Utilization to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment in respect of the applicable type of Letter of Credit. Subject to Section 8.22, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation;
(b)    if the reallocation described in clause (a) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within two (2) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize or (to the extent permitted by Section 2.12(c)) provide Permitted Cover for such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.12 for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding and to the extent such LC Exposure is not otherwise reallocated pursuant to clause (a) above;
(c)    the Commitment and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 8.05), provided that any waiver,
67


amendment or modification extending or increasing the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender or reducing the principal of any LC Disbursement made by such Defaulting Lender shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;
(d)    (i) if such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is reallocated pursuant to the foregoing clause (a), the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.19(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender and (y) not be required to pay the Commitment Fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.19(a) with respect to such reallocated portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure, (ii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes or provides (to the extent permitted by Section 2.12(c)) Permitted Cover for any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to the foregoing clause (b), the Borrower shall not be required to pay the Letter of Credit Fees or Commitment Fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Sections 2.19(a) and (b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized or covered by Permitted Cover and (iii) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to this Section 2.22, the Borrower shall pay to the applicable Issuing Lenders the amount of any such Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.19(b); and
(e)    no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that cash collateral or (to the extent permitted by Section 2.12(c)) Permitted Cover will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with the foregoing clause (b).
If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Revolving Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments then in effect (without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)), 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 Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and 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 that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
SECTION 2.23.    Replacement of Lenders.
If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.17, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or modification with respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of each Lender and that has been approved by the Required Lenders, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 8.06), without recourse, all of their interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
68


(a)    the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 8.06(b);
(b)    such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the aggregate outstanding amount of its LC Disbursements and/or Revolving Advances, as the case may be, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding LC Disbursements and/or Revolving Advances, as the case may be, and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
(c)    in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.17 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and
(d)    such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
Each party hereto agrees that (i) an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee, and (ii) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender, provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.
SECTION 2.24.    Incremental Commitments.
The Borrower may at any time, and from time to time, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments provided for under this Agreement (each such increase, an “Incremental Commitment Increase”) or enter into one or more tranches of term loans (each an “Incremental Term Loan”) so long as, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such Incremental Commitment Increases and all such Incremental Term Loans, taken together, does not exceed $500,000,000; provided, that (i) the maximum Aggregate Commitment hereunder shall not at any given time be in excess of $2,150,000,000 less any amount of Incremental Term Loans effected pursuant to this Section 2.24, (ii) the maximum Revolving Facility Sublimit shall not at any given time be in excess of $1,250,000,000 (it being understood and agreed that the Revolving Facility Sublimit shall be increased on a dollar-for-dollar basis concurrently with any Incremental Commitment Increase effected under and in accordance with this Section 2.24 (and shall not be increased concurrently with any Incremental Term Loan effected under and in accordance with this Section 2.24), subject at all times to the foregoing $1,250,000,000 absolute limitation), (iii) any such Incremental Commitment Increase or Incremental Term Loan shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 and any whole multiple of $10,000,000 in excess thereof and (iv) each Incremental Commitment Increase will be treated as a Commitment under this Agreement; provided, further, that (A) no Lender shall be required to provide all or any portion of such Incremental Commitment Increase or Incremental Term Loan and nothing contained in this Section 2.24 shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase
69


its Commitment hereunder, or provide Incremental Term Loans, at any time and (B) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result after giving effect to such Incremental Commitment Increase or Incremental Term Loan on the Incremental Commitment Increase Effective Date or Incremental Term Loan Effective Date, as applicable. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase or incremental term loans, as applicable, the Borrower may also invite additional banks or other financial institutions (each an “Augmenting Lender”) to become Incremental Increase Lenders in respect of an Incremental Commitment Increase pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (each such joinder agreement, an “Incremental Joinder Agreement”) executed by the Borrower, each Incremental Increase Lender (including any existing Lender and any Augmenting Lender) participating in such increase and the Administrative Agent or to become Incremental Term Loan Lenders in respect of an Incremental Term Loan pursuant to an amendment or restatement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (an “Incremental Term Loan Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Incremental Term Loan Lender (including any existing Lender and any Augmenting Lender) participating in such tranche of incremental term loans and the Administrative Agent; provided that each Incremental Increase Lender and each Incremental Term Loan Lender (including any Augmenting Lender) shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender (such approval in each case not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the approval of the Borrower, but not the approval of any other Lender. If the Aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Incremental Commitment Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase, and if incremental term loans are entered into in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Incremental Term Loan Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such incremental term loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Incremental Commitment Increase Effective Date or such incremental term loans and the Incremental Term Loan Effective Date, as applicable.
On each Incremental Commitment Increase Effective Date, each Lender, immediately prior to all Incremental Commitment Increases occurring on such Incremental Commitment Increase Effective Date, will automatically and without further action be deemed to have assigned to each Incremental Increase Lender providing a portion of the Incremental Commitment Increase on such Incremental Commitment Increase Effective Date, and each such Incremental Increase Lender will automatically and without further action be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, each Lender (including each Incremental Increase Lender) shall hold its Applicable Percentage (including any additional Commitments of the Incremental Increase Lenders) of the participations hereunder in Letters of Credit.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) the terms of each Incremental Commitment Increase shall be identical to the Commitments made as of the Closing Date except that the Applicable Rate in respect of the Letter of Credit Fee and/or the Commitment Fee and any other pricing terms (including upfront fees) shall be determined by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Incremental Increase Lenders and (ii) the Incremental Term Loans (a) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Revolving Advances, (b) shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date (but may have amortization prior to such date) and (c) shall be treated substantially the same as (and in any event no more favorably than) the Revolving Advances; provided that (1) the terms and conditions applicable to any tranche of Incremental Term Loans maturing after the Maturity Date may provide for material additional or different financial or other covenants or prepayment requirements applicable only

during periods after the Maturity Date and (2) the Applicable Rate and any other pricing terms (including upfront fees) shall be determined by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Incremental Term Loan Lenders.
As a condition precedent to any such increase or incremental term loans, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a senior vice president, the chief financial officer or the treasurer of the Borrower (i) certifying that such Incremental Commitment Increase and/or Incremental Term Loan and the performance of the Borrower’s obligations thereunder (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) have been duly authorized (and attaching any evidence thereof reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent), and (ii) certifying that, as of the Incremental Commitment Increase Effective Date and/or the Incremental Term Loan Effective Date, as applicable, before and after giving effect to such Incremental Commitment Increase and/or such Incremental Term Loans, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article IV and the other Loan Documents are true and correct, (B) no default or event of default under any project engineering, procurement, construction, maintenance and related activities and/or contracts of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall have occurred and be continuing which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Borrower to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents and (C) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
Solely with respect to any Incremental Commitment Increase and any Incremental Term Loans, this Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.14(c), 2.14(d), 8.04 or 8.05 to the contrary. In connection with any Incremental Commitment Increase or any Incremental Term Loans, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lenders, effect such amendments (including, without limitation, an Incremental Term Loan Amendment) to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.24.
SECTION 2.25.    Extension of Maturity Date.
(a)    Requests for Extension. The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) not earlier than 60 days and not later than 30 days prior to each anniversary of the date of this Agreement (each such date, an “Extension Date”), request that each Lender extend such Lender’s Maturity Date to the date that is one year after the Maturity Date then in effect for such Lender (the “Existing Maturity Date”).
(b)    Lender Elections to Extend. Each Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date that is 15 days after the date on which the Administrative Agent received the Borrower’s extension request (the “Lender Notice Date”), advise the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension (each Lender that determines to so extend its Maturity Date, an “Extending Lender”). Each Lender that determines not to so extend its Maturity Date (a “Non-Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than the Lender Notice Date), and any Lender that does not so advise the Administrative Agent on or before the Lender Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree, and it is understood and agreed that no Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Borrower for extension of the Maturity Date.
(c)    Notification by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each Lender’s determination under this Section no later than the date that is 15 days prior to
71


the applicable Extension Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day).
(d)    Additional Commitment Lenders. The Borrower shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, on or before the applicable Maturity Date for any Non-Extending Lender to replace such Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Lenders” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) approved by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the procedures provided in Section 2.24, each of which Additional Commitment Lenders shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 8.06, with the Borrower or replacement Lender obligated to pay any applicable processing or recordation fee) with such Non-Extending Lender, pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lenders shall, effective on or before the applicable Maturity Date for such Non-Extending Lender, assume a Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Lender’s Commitment hereunder on such date). The Administrative Agent may effect such amendments to this Agreement as are reasonably necessary to provide for any such extensions with the consent of the Borrower but without the consent of any other Lenders.
(e)    Minimum Extension Requirement. If (and only if) the total of the Commitments in respect of the Revolving Facility Sublimit of the Lenders that have agreed to extend their Maturity Date and the additional Commitments of the Additional Commitment Lenders is more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Facility Sublimit in effect immediately prior to the applicable Extension Date, then, effective as of the applicable Extension Date, the Maturity Date of each Extending Lender and of each Additional Commitment Lender shall be extended to the date that is one year after the Existing Maturity Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day) and each Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a Lender hereunder and shall have the obligations of a Lender hereunder.
(f)    Conditions to Effectiveness of Extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) no more than two (2) extensions of the Maturity Date shall be permitted hereunder and (y) any extension of any Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.25 shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:
(i)    no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Extension Date and immediately after giving effect thereto;
(ii)    all representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in Article IV of this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (provided that any representation or warranty that is qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the applicable Extension Date and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date);
(iii)    no default or event of default under any project engineering, procurement, construction, maintenance and related activities and/or contracts of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall have occurred and be continuing on and as of the applicable Extension Date and after giving effect thereto which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Borrower to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents; and
72


(iv)    the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate from the Borrower signed by a senior vice president, the chief financial officer or the treasurer of the Borrower (A) certifying the accuracy of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) and (B) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such extension.
(g)    Maturity Date for Non-Extending Lenders. On the Maturity Date of each Non-Extending Lender, (i) the Commitment of each Non-Extending Lender shall automatically terminate and (ii) the Borrower shall repay such Non-Extending Lender in accordance with Section 2.03 (and shall pay to such Non-Extending Lender all of the other Obligations owing to it under this Agreement) and after giving effect thereto shall prepay any Revolving Advances outstanding on such date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 8.03(c)) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Revolving Advances ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages of the respective Lenders effective as of such date, and the Administrative Agent shall administer any necessary reallocation of the outstanding Revolving Advances and LC Exposures (without regard to any minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and/or pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement).

In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than within the United States, each Lender and Issuing Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent any required powers of attorney to execute and enforce any Collateral Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s behalf. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and Issuing Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.
(b)    As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and Issuing Lender; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification and is exculpated in a manner satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided.

(c)    In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Revolving Advance or any reimbursement obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(i)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Revolving Advances, LC Disbursements and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.05, 2.11, 2.16, 2.17, 2.19 and 8.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(ii)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Issuing Lender and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the other Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 8.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Secured Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Lender in any such proceeding
SECTION 7.02.    Rights as a Lender.
The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires or the Administrative Agent is not a Lender hereunder, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
SECTION 7.03.    Reliance by Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by
103


it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Revolving Advance, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the applicable Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Revolving Advance or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
SECTION 7.04.    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 connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
SECTION 7.05.    Exculpatory Provisions.
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties are entirety mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(a)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(b)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and
(c)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 6.02 and 8.05) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default
104


unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf, or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or (vi) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral.
SECTION 7.06.    Indemnification.
To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required pursuant to Section 8.03(a) or Section 8.03(b) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 7.06 are subject to the provisions of Section 2.14(e).
SECTION 7.07.    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.
Each Lender and each Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
SECTION 7.08.    Resignation and Removal of Administrative Agent.
(a)     The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have
105


accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or an Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed), and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.03 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.
(b)    Any resignation by BNPP as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender, (b) the retiring Issuing Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit.
(c)    If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (e) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
SECTION 7.09.    Agent With Respect to Cash Collateral Accounts.
Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of Lenders, to be the agent for and representative of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders with respect to any cash collateral accounts. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby
106


agree that no Lender or Issuing Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any cash collateral accounts, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, in accordance with the terms hereof. In furtherance, and not by limitation, of the foregoing, without written consent or authorization from the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, release any Lien encumbering any of the cash collateral and execute any documents or instruments necessary to accomplish any of the foregoing.
SECTION 7.10.    Collateral Matters.
(a)    Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 8.04 or with respect to a Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In its capacity, the Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the UCC. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. Each of the Lenders, on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are Secured Parties, hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) as described in Section 5.14(f) and Section 8.05(b); (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant hereto. Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Collateral which is permitted pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by any Loan Party, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. Any execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent of documents in connection with any such release shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.
(b)    In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no Banking Services Agreement, Swap Agreement or Bilateral LC will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such Banking Services Agreement, Swap Agreement
107


or Bilateral LC, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.
(c)    The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.
SECTION 7.11.    Credit Bidding.
The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Secured Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Secured Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Secured Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 8.05 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Secured Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Secured Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Secured Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Secured Obligations credit
108


bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Secured Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Secured Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Secured Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Secured Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid

(c)    The Administrative Agent and each Joint Lead Arranger hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to provide investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Revolving Advances, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Revolving Advances, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Revolving Advances, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Loan Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, facility fees, commitment fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent fees or collateral agent fees, utilization fees, minimum usage fees, letter of credit fees, fronting fees, deal-away or alternate transaction fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums, banker’s acceptance fees, breakage or other early termination fees or fees similar to the foregoing.

SECTION 7.14.    Secured Banking Services Obligations; Secured Swap Obligations; and Secured Bilateral LC Obligations

The most
110


recent information provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 7.14(a) shall be used in determining the amounts to be applied in respect of such Secured Banking Services Obligations and/or Secured Swap Obligations, as applicable, pursuant to Section 6.03.
(b)    The Borrower may, at its sole discretion, deliver to the Administrative Agent, promptly after the issuance of the relevant Bilateral LC, written notice setting forth (i) the Bilateral LC Provider in respect of such Bilateral LC, (ii) the aggregate amount of all obligations of the Borrower and/or its Subsidiary(ies) in respect of such Bilateral LC and (iii) the termination date of such Bilateral LC. Such notice shall also confirm that at such time the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of Secured Bilateral LC Obligations (including the obligations in respect of such Bilateral LC) does not exceed $250,000,000.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has not provided to the Administrative Agent the notice described in this Section 7.14(b) in respect of any Bilateral LC (and the Administrative Agent has not confirmed its approval thereof), then none of the obligations owing to the applicable Bilateral LC Provider in respect of such Bilateral LC shall constitute Secured Bilateral LC Obligations for any purpose under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(c)    Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, no Banking Services Provider, Swap Bank or Bilateral LC Provider that obtains the benefits of Section 6.03, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of the Subsidiary Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents.

The Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as such), each Issuing Lender (in its capacity as such), each Lender and each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, claims, damages, liabilities, disbursements and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses, which may include the allocated cost of internal counsel, and settlement costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether direct, indirect or consequential, and whether based on any federal, state or foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations, on common law or equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Indemnitees in any way related to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the use of proceeds of the Revolving Advances or Letters of Credit (collectively, “Losses”), except any such Losses (i) resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) resulting from a claim brought by the Borrower against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that nothing in this Section 8.03(b) shall obligate the Borrower to pay the normal expenses of the Administrative Agent in the administration of this Agreement in the absence of pending or threatened litigation or other proceedings or the claims or threatened claims of others and then only to the extent arising therefrom. This Section 8.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Revolving Advance or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in this Section 8.03(b) above shall be liable for any damages
113


arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
(c)    Breakage. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense reasonably incurred by it as a result of: (i) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); (ii) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Revolving Advance) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or (iii) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.23; in each case, including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Advance or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained but excluding any loss of anticipated profits. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.
(d)    Survival. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 8.03 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments hereunder and payment of the Obligations.
SECTION 8.04.    Sharing of SetOffs.
Each Lender agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect to any Obligations owing to such Lender which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect to Obligations owing to such other Lender, the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the LC Exposure of the other Lenders or Revolving Advances of the other Lenders, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the LC Exposure of the Lenders or Revolving Advances of the Lenders shall be shared by the Lenders pro rata; provided that nothing in this Section 8.04 shall impair the right of any Lender to exercise any right of setoff or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of any Loan Party other than its LC Exposure or other Obligations owing to such Lender. The Borrower agrees (for itself and on behalf of each other Loan Party), to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of any participation in any Revolving Advances or a participation in any LC Exposure, whether or not acquired pursuant to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the relevant Loan party in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 8.04 would apply, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 8.04 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim. The Borrower hereby authorizes (for itself and on behalf of each other Loan Party) BNPP and each other Lender, in accordance with the provisions of this Section
114


8.04, to so setoff and apply any and all such deposits held and other indebtedness owing by BNPP or such other Lender to or for the credit or the account of the applicable Loan Party and hereby authorizes (for itself and on behalf of each other Loan Party) BNPP and each such other Lender to permit such setoff and application by BNPP or such other Lender; provided that any such set-off rights shall not, solely in respect of any Obligations owing by any Loan Party, apply to the accounts or deposits of the Borrower’s foreign Subsidiaries. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
SECTION 8.05.    Amendments and Waivers.

(a)    Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender are affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent or each affected Issuing Lender, as the case may be); provided that, except (x) in respect of Incremental Commitment Increase and any Incremental Term Loans as provided in Section 2.24 and (y) as provided in Section 2.05(e)(ii)(B), Section 2.05(e)(ii)(C) and Section 2.05(e)(ii)(D), no such amendment, waiver or modification shall: (i) extend or increase any Commitment of any Lender or subject any Lender to any additional obligation without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate or amount of interest (other than interest payable at the default rate set forth in Section 2.05(d)) on any Revolving Advance or any LC Disbursement or any fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby , (iii) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) extend the terms of any Letter of Credit (other than as set forth below) without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (v) amend this Section 8.05 without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) change Section 2.14(c), Section 2.14(d) or Section 8.04 or any other provision of this Agreement in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing or disbursement of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) change the payment waterfall provisions of Section 6.03 without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) modify the definition of “Required Lenders” or change the percentage of the Commitments or the number of Lenders which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Section 8.05 or any other provision of this Agreement without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood that, solely with the consent of the parties prescribed by Section 2.24 to be parties to an Incremental Term Loan Amendment, Incremental Term Loans may be included in the determination of Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Commitments and the Revolving Advances are included on the Closing Date), (ix) except as provided in Section 8.05(b), release all or substantially all of the Collateral without the written consent of each Lender, (x) other than pursuant to the terms of Section 8.24 upon the occurrence of a Collateral Release Event, release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender or (xi) other than pursuant to the terms of such Article IX upon the occurrence of a Collateral Release Event, release the Borrower from its obligations under Article IX without the written consent of each Lender; provided, further, that each of the Fee Letters may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (1) the Expiration Date of any Letter of Credit may be extended with the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender and the Borrower to a date not later than the
115


seventh Business Day prior to the Maturity Date, (2) any Letter of Credit may be amended in any other manner with the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender and the Borrower so long as such Letter of Credit, as so amended, complies with Section 2.07 of this Agreement and (3) the Maturity Date of this Agreement may be extended pursuant to the requirements contained in Section 2.25 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to this Agreement made pursuant to Section 5.09(c) in order to make adjustments to this Agreement to reflect the Borrower’s change in its fiscal year shall only be required to be signed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent that by its terms requires the consent of all the Lenders or each directly affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, or the maturity of any of its Revolving Advances may not be extended, the rate of interest on any of its Revolving Advances may not be reduced and the principal amount of any of its Revolving Advances may not be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of all the Lenders or each directly affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than the other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.
(b)    Upon the termination of all the Commitments, payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Secured Swap Obligations not yet due and payable, Secured Banking Services Obligations not yet due and payable, Secured Bilateral LC Obligations not yet due and payable, Unliquidated Obligations for which no claim has been made and other Obligations expressly stated to survive such payment and termination), and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests under the Collateral Documents shall be automatically released. Subject to the reinstatement provisions set forth in any applicable Collateral Document, a Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Collateral Documents in Collateral owned by such Loan Party shall be automatically released, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Loan Party ceases to be a Material Domestic Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders (or if applicable, the Lenders) shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. Upon (i) any sale or other transfer by any Loan Party (other than to the Borrower or any other Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, (ii) the expiration or termination of property leased to any Loan Party in a transaction permitted by this Agreement, (iii) the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Collateral Document in any Collateral pursuant to Section 8.05(a), (iv) any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VI, and (v) the occurrence of a Collateral Release Event in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 5.14(f), the security interests in such Collateral created by the Collateral Documents shall be automatically released; provided, however, that the Lien of the Collateral Documents shall attach to any proceeds of the foregoing. Upon the release of any Loan Party from its Guarantee in compliance with this Agreement, the security interest in any Collateral owned by such Loan Party created by the Collateral Documents shall be automatically released. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. In addition, each of the Lenders, on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are Secured Parties, irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (i) to subordinate any Lien on any assets granted
116


to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 5.08 or (ii) in the event that the Borrower shall have advised the Administrative Agent that, notwithstanding the use by the Borrower of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such holder (but without the requirement to pay any sums to obtain such consent) to permit the Administrative Agent to retain its liens (on a subordinated basis as contemplated by clause (i) above), the holder of such other Debt requires, as a condition to the extension of such credit, that the Liens on such assets granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document be released, to release the Administrative Agent’s Liens on such assets. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 8.05(b), and in connection with any Collateral becoming an Excluded Asset, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to file or register in any office, or to evidence, such termination or release, or, in the case of Collateral becoming an Excluded Asset, to effect, to file or register in any office, or to evidence the release of any security interest created by the Collateral Documents in such assets. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. Each of the Secured Parties irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to effect the releases set forth in this Section.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (x) to add one or more credit facilities (in addition to the Incremental Term Loans pursuant to an Incremental Term Loan Amendment) to this Agreement and to permit extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Revolving Advances, Incremental Term Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Lenders.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower acting together identify any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend, modify or supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect, and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.
SECTION 8.06.    Successors and Assigns.
(a)    Binding Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights and Obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each Lender.
(b)    Successors and Assigns. Each Lender may assign to one or more banks or other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments and the Revolving Advances and LC Exposure held by it); provided, however, that (A) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement, (B) the aggregate amount of the Commitments, Revolving Advances and LC Exposure of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment shall (1) not be less than $5,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or (2) be the
117


remaining amount of such Lender’s Commitments, Revolving Advances and LC Exposure, (C) each such assignment and proposed assignee is subject to the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided further, however, that the consent of the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower shall not be required with respect to any such assignment by any Lender to (x) an Affiliate of such Lender, (y) an Approved Fund or (z) another Lender, (D) no such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (E) no such assignment shall be made to a natural person, (F) no assignment shall be made to a company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof, (G) no such assignment may be made to a Disqualified Competitor, (H) no assignment shall be made to a Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent and (I) the assigning Lender shall pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender). For each assignment, the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, together with such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment and Assumption Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.16. Upon the execution, delivery, acceptance and recording by the Administrative Agent, from and after the effective date specified in any Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignor Lender thereunder shall be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents. From and after the effective date of any such assignment (1) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such assignment, have (in addition to any such rights and obligations theretofore held by it) the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, shall have Commitments equal to the Commitments assigned to it (in addition to any Commitments theretofore held by it), and shall have LC Exposure and Revolving Advances equal to the LC Exposure and Revolving Advances assigned to it (in addition to any LC Exposure and Revolving Advances theretofore held by it) and (2) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such assignment, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination of this Agreement under Section 8.03) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). From time to time, at the request of any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of the current Commitments of all Lenders.
(c)    Sub-Participations. Subject to Section 8.06(d), a Lender may at any time grant sub-participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in or to all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, and to the extent of any such sub-participation (unless otherwise stated therein and except as provided below) the purchaser of such sub-participation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have the same rights and benefits hereunder as it would have if it were such Lender hereunder; provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (iv) no such sub-participation shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
118


and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder, including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such sub-participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 8.05 without the consent of the Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 8.03(c) (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(b) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.16(b) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.23 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.16 or 2.17, with respect to any sub-participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable sub-participation. Each Lender that sells a sub-participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the 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) or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) of the United States Treasury Regulations (or, in each case, any amended, successor or final version). 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 sub-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.
(d)    Lender Treated as Owner. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower may, for all purposes of this Agreement, treat any Lender as the owner and holder of LC Exposure and Revolving Advances until written notice of assignment shall have been received by them.
(e)    No Right to Greater Payment. No assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Lender’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.17 than such Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made (i) with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement requiring such Lender to designate a different Lending Office under certain circumstances, or (ii) at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist.
(f)    Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
119


(g)    Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Revolving Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(h)    Disqualified Competitors.
(i)    No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Competitor as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or grant a participation in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment or participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Competitor for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee or Participant that becomes a Disqualified Competitor after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a written supplement to the list of “Disqualified Competitors” referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Competitor”), (x) such assignee or Participant shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender or Participant and (y) the execution by the Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Competitor. Any assignment or participation in violation of this clause (h)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (h) shall apply.
(ii)    If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Competitor without the Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Competitor after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Competitor and the Administrative Agent, require such Disqualified Competitor to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 8.06), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons (other than any entity described in Sections 8.06(b)(D), (E), (F), (G) or (H)) at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Competitor paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.
(iii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Competitors to whom an assignment or participation is made in violation of clause (i) above (A) will not have the right to (x) receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Competitor will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Competitors consented to such matter and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of
120


reorganization, each Disqualified Competitor party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization, (2) if such Disqualified Competitor does vote on such plan of reorganization notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other applicable laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan of reorganization in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other applicable laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).
(iv)    The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Competitors provided by the Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on any electronic platform, including that portion of such electronic platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender or potential Lender requesting the same.
(v)    The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Competitors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any other Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Revolving Advances, or disclosure of confidential information, by any other Person to any Disqualified Competitor.
(i)    Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Revolving Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
SECTION 8.07.    Collateral.
Each of the Lenders represents to the Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders that it in good faith is not relying upon any “margin stock” (as defined in Regulation U) as collateral in the extension or maintenance of the credit provided for in this Agreement.
SECTION 8.08.    Governing Law.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
121

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders, on the other hand, and the Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, each of the Administrative Agent, each Joint Lead Arranger and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (iii) none of the Administrative Agent nor any Joint Lead Arranger nor any Lender has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender has advised or is currently advising the Borrower or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and none of the Administrative Agent nor any Joint Lead Arranger nor any
125


Lender has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent nor any Joint Lead Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. The Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Borrower may have against the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any advisory, agency or fiduciary duty.
SECTION 8.17.    WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.
EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON 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 THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
SECTION 8.18.    Interest Rate Limitation.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Revolving Advances or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
SECTION 8.19.    Judgment Currency.
(a)    If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of
126


exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such specified currency with such other currency in New York, New York at 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.
(b)    The Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall be required to be satisfied in the applicable specified currency. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it to any Credit Party hereunder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent the recipient thereof may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the specified currency (after subtracting all expenses incurred in converting such currency to the specified currency) with such other currency on the Business Day immediately following such receipt; if the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the recipient in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any judgment, to indemnify the recipient against such loss, and, if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the recipient in the specified currency, the recipient agrees to remit to the Borrower such excess (after subtracting all expenses incurred in converting such currency to the specified currency).
(c)    The agreements in this Section 8.19 shall survive payment of any such judgment.
SECTION 8.20.    USA Patriot Act.
Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act (as hereinafter defined) and the requirements of the Beneficial Ownership Regulation and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”) and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each Related Entity, which information includes the name, address and tax identification number of the Borrower and each Related Entity and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and each Related Entity in accordance with the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation and other applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable or required by requirements of law, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.
SECTION 8.21.    Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
127


In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
SECTION 8.22.    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b)    the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i)    a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
SECTION 8.23.    Appointment for Perfection
.
Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession or control. Should
128


any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.
SECTION 8.24.    Release of Subsidiary Guarantors
.
During any Collateral Period:
(a)    At the request of the Borrower, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary, without any further action by any Person; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to) execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.
(b)    Further, the Administrative Agent may (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to), upon the request of the Borrower, release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty if such Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Material Domestic Subsidiary.
(c)    At such time as the principal and interest on the Revolving Advances, all LC Disbursements, the fees, expenses and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents and the other Secured Obligations (other than Secured Swap Obligations not yet due and payable, Secured Banking Services Obligations not yet due and payable, Secured Bilateral LC Obligations not yet due and payable, Unliquidated Obligations for which no claim has been made and other Obligations expressly stated to survive such payment and termination) shall have been paid in full in cash, the Commitments shall have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding, the Subsidiary Guaranty and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of each Subsidiary Guarantor thereunder shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.
(d)    At the request of the Borrower, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under the Subsidiary upon the occurrence of a Collateral Release Event in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 5.14(f).

B.V. in respect of interest and/or fees, if any, pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement have been paid in full on or prior to the date hereof.
SECTION 8.26.    Termination of Commitments Under Existing $1.8B Credit Agreement

The Lenders hereunder that are party to the Existing $1.8B Credit Agreement constitute the “Required Lenders” under (and as defined in) the Existing $1.8B Credit Agreement. Each of the signatories hereto that is also a party to the Existing Credit Agreement hereby agrees that, concurrently with the effectiveness of this Agreement on the Closing Date, all of the “Commitments” under (and as defined in) the Existing $1.8B Credit Agreement are terminated and cancelled automatically and, notwithstanding Section 2.04(c) of the Existing $1.8B Credit Agreement, hereby agrees that (i) the required advance notice period in connection with the termination of the “Commitments” under the Existing $1.8B Credit Agreement is waived and the notice required by such Section 2.04(c) of the Existing $1.8B Credit Agreement may be delivered instead on the Closing Date and (ii) any such notice delivered by the Borrower in respect of such terminations of such “Commitments” may be conditioned on the effectiveness of this Agreement.
ARTICLE IX

BORROWER GUARANTEE
During any Collateral Period:
In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder and for other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged), the Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the Specified Ancillary Obligations of the Subsidiaries. The Borrower further agrees that the due and punctual payment of such Specified Ancillary Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any such Specified Ancillary Obligation.
The Borrower waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Subsidiary of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Subsidiary under the provisions of any Banking Services Agreement, any Swap Agreement, any Bilateral LC or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Banking Services Agreement, any Swap Agreement, any Bilateral LC or other agreement; (d) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations; (e) the failure of any applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates) to take any steps to perfect and maintain any security interest in, or to preserve any rights to, any security or collateral for the Specified Ancillary Obligations, if any; (f) any change in the corporate, partnership or other existence, structure or ownership of any Subsidiary or any other guarantor of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations; (g) the enforceability or
130


validity of the Specified Ancillary Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any collateral securing the Specified Ancillary Obligations or any part thereof, or any other invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Subsidiary or any other guarantor of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations, for any reason related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Banking Services Agreement, any Swap Agreement, any Bilateral LC or any provision of applicable law, decree, order or regulation of any jurisdiction purporting to prohibit the payment by such Subsidiary or any other guarantor of the Specified Ancillary Obligations, of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations or otherwise affecting any term of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations; or (h) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Borrower or otherwise operate as a discharge of a guarantor as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of the Borrower to subrogation.
The Borrower further agrees that its agreement hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates) to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender in favor of any Subsidiary or any other Person.
The obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Specified Ancillary Obligations or otherwise.
The Borrower further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall constitute a continuing and irrevocable guarantee of all Specified Ancillary Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Specified Ancillary Obligation (including a payment effected through exercise of a right of setoff) is rescinded, or is or must otherwise be restored or returned by any applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates) upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Subsidiary or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by a holder of Specified Ancillary Obligations in its discretion).
In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates) may have at law or in equity against the Borrower by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Subsidiary to pay any Specified Ancillary Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the Borrower hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by any applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates), forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to such applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates) in cash an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Specified Ancillary Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Borrower further agrees that if payment in respect of any Specified Ancillary Obligation shall be due in a currency other than Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York, Chicago or any other Eurocurrency Payment Office and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Specified Ancillary Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of any applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates), disadvantageous to such applicable Lender (or any of its Affiliates) in any material respect, then, at the election of such applicable Lender, the Borrower shall make payment of such Specified Ancillary
131


Obligation in Dollars (based upon the Dollar Equivalent of such Specified Ancillary Obligation on the date of payment) and/or in New York, New York or such other location as is designated by such applicable Lender (or its Affiliate) and, as a separate and independent obligation, shall indemnify such applicable Lender (and any of its Affiliates) against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment.
Upon payment by the Borrower of any sums as provided above, all rights of the Borrower against any Subsidiary arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Specified Ancillary Obligations owed by such Subsidiary to the applicable Lender (or its applicable Affiliates).
The Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each Subsidiary Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty in respect of Specified Swap Obligations (provided, however, that the Borrower shall only be liable under this paragraph for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this paragraph or otherwise under this Article IX voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The Borrower intends that this paragraph constitute, and this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act
Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of the Borrower hereunder except the full performance and payment in cash of the Secured Obligations.
