ITEM 1.01   ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

 

ITEM 2.03   CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT.

 

On July 6, 2016, The Macerich Company, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”); The Macerich Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and the operating partnership of the Company (the “Borrower”); Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent; Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and U.S. Bank National Association, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunning managers; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and U.S. Bank National Association, as co-syndication agents; PNC Bank, National Association, as documentation agent; and various lenders party thereto entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). The Amended Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s existing Credit Agreement, dated as of August 6, 2013, which governs its $1.5 billion Revolving Loan Facility.

 

The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a $1.5 billion revolving loan facility that matures on July 6, 2020, with an option for the Borrower to extend maturity until July 6, 2021. The Borrower has the ability from time to time to increase the size of the facility by up to an additional $500 million, subject to the receipt of lender commitments and other conditions. Commitments under the accordion feature may be made as incremental revolver commitments or as commitments to a new term loan tranche. The Amended Credit Agreement also provides for a sublimit of $50 million for swing line advances. Loans made under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Borrower’s election, at either the daily average Base Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) or the Reserve Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus, in both cases, an applicable margin. The applicable margin depends on the Company’s overall leverage ratio and ranges from 0.30% to 1.90% over the selected base rate. As of the date of the Amended Credit Agreement, the applicable margin for Base Rate loans was .325% per annum and the applicable margin for Reserve Adjusted LIBO Rate loans was 1.325% per annum.

 

The Borrower may voluntarily repay outstanding amounts under the revolving loan facility, in whole or in part, at any time, subject to customary administrative provisions.

 

All obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company.

 

The Amended Credit Agreement includes financial covenants requiring a minimum net worth, maximum leverage ratio, minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum secured leverage ratio and maximum floating rate debt. In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement also contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default.

 

The Borrower pays a monthly facility fee of 0.20% of the unused facility commitments and other customary fees, as described in the Amended Credit Agreement.

 

The foregoing summary of the Amended Credit Agreement, the guaranty and the transactions contemplated thereby do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the Amended Credit Agreement and the guaranty, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

 

THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (as Modified, extended or replaced from time to time, this “Agreement”) is made and dated as of July 6, 2016, by and among THE MACERICH PARTNERSHIP, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of the state of Delaware, as the Borrower (the “Borrower”); THE MACERICH COMPANY, a Maryland corporation (“MAC”), as the guarantor; the Lenders from time to time party hereto; DEUTSCHE BANK AG NEW YORK BRANCH (“DBNY”), as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”); DEUTSCHE BANK SECURITIES INC., JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., WELLS FARGO SECURITIES, LLC, GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunning managers; JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as co-syndication agents; and PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as documentation agent.

 

RECITALS

 

A.                                    Pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, the Existing Lenders, including certain Lenders hereunder, have made a $1,500,000,000 revolving credit facility and a $125,000,000 term loan facility available to the Borrower and certain subsidiaries and affiliates of the Borrower, which term loan facility was repaid in full on October 23, 2015.

 

B.                                    The Borrower has requested, and the Lenders party hereto have agreed, to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement and to make available to the Borrower, a revolving credit facility consisting of up to $1,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Commitments (as such aggregate amount of Commitments may be increased pursuant to and in accordance with the terms hereof).

 

C.                                    DBNY has agreed to act as administrative agent on behalf of the Lenders on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.

 

D.                                    MAC has agreed to guarantee the Obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above Recitals and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

AGREEMENT

 

ARTICLE 1.                           The Credits.

 

1.1.                            The Revolving Commitments.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Revolving Lender with a Revolving Commitment severally agrees to make one or more Revolving Loans in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in, after giving effect thereto, (a) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment or (b) the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the total Revolving Commitments.  Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and re-borrow Revolving Loans.

 



 

1.2.                            Loans and Borrowings.

 

(1)                                 Obligations of Lenders.  Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans or portions of a Loan of the same Type made by the Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments.  The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or portion of a Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make any Loan or portion of a Loan as required.

 

(2)         Existing Principal Obligations.  The Borrower, MAC, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders and the Issuing Lenders acknowledge and agree that under the Existing Credit Agreement, the aggregate principal amount of all obligations owing by the Borrower and MAC as of the Closing Date (the “Existing Principal Obligations”) is $1,015,000,000 (exclusive of interest, fees and expenses).  The Borrower and MAC acknowledge and agree that all Obligations of the Borrower and MAC outstanding as of the Closing Date (including the Existing Principal Obligations) constitute valid and binding obligations of the Borrower and MAC and are not subject to offset, counterclaim, defense or recoupment of any kind.  All interest, fees and expenses, together with all other Obligations outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement (including the Existing Principal Obligations) which remain unpaid and outstanding as of the Closing Date shall be in all respects continuing and remain outstanding and payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, with only the terms thereof being modified from and after the Closing Date as set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

(3)                                 Types of Loans.  Subject to Section 2.4, each Borrowing shall be constituted entirely of Base Rate Loans or LIBO Rate Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith.

 

(4)                                 Minimum Amounts; Limitation on Number of Borrowings.  At the commencement of each Interest Period for any LIBO Rate Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000.  At the time that each Base Rate Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000; provided that a Base Rate Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Revolving Commitments or in an amount that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 1.4(6).  Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be LIBO Rate Loans outstanding having more than twelve (12) different Interest Periods.

 

(5)                                 Limitations on Lengths of Interest Periods.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert to or continue as a LIBO Rate Borrowing, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested therefore would end after the Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

 

7



 

1.3.                            Requests for Revolving Borrowings.  To request a Revolving Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which notice may be by facsimile) (a) in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time), three Business Days before the date of the proposed Revolving Borrowing or (b) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) one Business Day before the date of the proposed Revolving Borrowing.  Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable, shall be signed by a Responsible Officer and shall be in the form of Exhibit A hereto.  Each such Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 1.2:

 

(i)                                     the aggregate amount of the requested Revolving Borrowing;

 

(ii)                                  the date of such Revolving Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

 

(iii)                               whether such Revolving Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a LIBO Rate Borrowing;

 

(iv)                              in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” as it relates to LIBO Rate Loans; and

 

(v)                                 the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 1.5.

 

If no election as to the Type of Revolving Borrowing is specified, then the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Borrowing.  If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested LIBO Rate Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.  Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Revolving Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

 

1.4.                            Letters of Credit.

 

(1)                                 General.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, in addition to the Loans provided for in Section 1.1, the Borrower may request the Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit for its own account or the account of any Macerich Entity in such form as is acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender in its reasonable determination at any time prior to the earlier of (i) the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and (ii) the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments (such earlier date, the “LC Commitment Expiry Date”).  Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall constitute utilization of the Revolving Commitments.  All Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement must be denominated in U.S. Dollars and must be standby letters of credit.  The only drawings permitted on the Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be sight drawings.  It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that each of the Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute a “Letter of Credit” for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  The Borrower may request a Letter of Credit from any Issuing Lender selected by

the Borrower in its sole discretion.  The Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts, to the extent practicable, to cause the Letters of Credit (other than the Specified Letters of Credit) to be issued by the Issuing Lenders on a proportionate basis in accordance with their proportionate share of the Letter of Credit Commitments.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the Specified Letters of Credit will be issued by DBNY, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Goldman Sachs Bank USA and U.S. Bank National Association on a proportionate basis, (y) so long as the Specified Letters of Credit remain outstanding, the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to request Letters of Credit from Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender, until such time as the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is greater than or equal to $15,000,000 prior to requesting Letters of Credit from other Issuing Lenders and (z) other than the Specified Letters of Credit, the Existing Letters of Credit shall not be required to be issued by the Issuing Lenders on a proportionate basis.

 

(2)                                 Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal or Extension.  Whenever it requires that a Letter of Credit be issued, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender(s) written notice thereof at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender(s)) in advance of the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), which notice shall be in the form of Exhibit B (each such notice being a “Letter of Credit Request”).  Whenever the Borrower requires an amendment, renewal or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall, on its letterhead, give the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender(s) written notice thereof at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender(s)) in advance of the proposed date of the amendment (which shall be a Business Day).  Letter of Credit Requests and amendment requests may be delivered by facsimile.  Promptly after the issuance or amendment (including a renewal or extension) of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender(s) shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in writing, of such issuance or amendment and such notice will be accompanied by a copy of such issuance or amendment.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of such issuance or amendment and if requested to do so by any Revolving Lender, the Administrative Agent shall provide such Revolving Lender with a copy of such issuance or amendment.  If requested by an Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall also submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, such Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

 

(3)                                 Limitations on Amounts.  A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure of the Issuing Lenders (determined for these purposes without giving effect to the participations therein of the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 1.4(5) below), collectively, shall not exceed the aggregate Letter of Credit Commitments, (ii) the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Revolving Commitments and (iii) unless otherwise consented to in

writing, the aggregate LC Exposure of an Issuing Lender (determined for these purposes without giving effect to the participations therein of the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 1.4(5) below) shall not exceed such Issuing Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuing Lender shall be obligated to issue a Letter of Credit to the extent that, on the date of such Issuing Lender’s receipt of a request for issuance pursuant to Section 1.4(2) above, the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit shall exceed the unused portion of the Revolving Commitments of such Issuing Lender in its capacity as a Lender on such date.  Each Letter of Credit shall be in an amount of $100,000 or larger.

 

(4)                                 Expiration Date.  Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date twelve months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof (which renewals or extensions, subject to clause (ii) hereof, may be automatic pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit), twelve months after the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit and (ii) the Outside L/C Maturity Date; provided that, if one or more Letters of Credit shall have an expiry date that is later than the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, (x) the Borrower shall provide Cash Collateral pursuant to and in accordance with Section 1.4(11) with respect to such Letters of Credit on or prior to the date that is five days before the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, (y) the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 1.4 in respect of such Letters of Credit shall survive the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and shall remain in effect until no such Letters of Credit remain outstanding (or remain subject to any pending drawing) and (z) each Revolving Lender shall be reinstated hereunder, to the extent any such Cash Collateral, the application thereof or reimbursement in respect thereof is required to be returned to the Borrower by the applicable Issuing Lender after the Revolving Commitment Termination Date until no such Letters of Credit remain outstanding (or remain subject to any pending drawing).

 

(5)                                 Participations.  By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by an Issuing Lender, and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Lender or the Revolving Lenders, such Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.  Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this section in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Potential Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each payment made in accordance with the following paragraph of this Section 1.4(5) by a Revolving Lender for the account of an Issuing Lender shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

 

In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for account of the applicable Issuing Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Revolving Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender promptly upon the request of the

 

10



 

Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender at any time from the time of such LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by the Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason.  Each such payment shall be made in the same manner as provided in Section 1.5 with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 1.5 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders.  Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to the next following paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that the Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.  Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lenders for any LC Disbursement shall not constitute a Revolving Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

 

(6)                                 Reimbursement.  If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time; provided that, anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (A) unless the Borrower shall have notified Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date on which the Borrower is obligated to reimburse such Issuing Lender in respect of such LC Disbursement (the “Reimbursement Date”) that the Borrower intends to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of such payment with funds other than the proceeds of a Base Rate Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have delivered an irrevocable Borrowing Request to Administrative Agent containing all of the representations set forth in Exhibit A requesting Revolving Lenders to make Base Rate Loans on the Business Day following the Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the amount of the payment and (B) subject to satisfaction or written waiver of the conditions specified in Section 1.1 and 5.2 in accordance with the terms thereof, Revolving Lenders shall, on the Reimbursement Date, make Base Rate Loans in the amount of such payment, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Administrative Agent to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of such payment; provided, further, that no Potential Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to exist by reason of a failure of the Borrower to reimburse such Issuing Lender pending the making of such Revolving Loans on the Business Day following the applicable Reimbursement Date in accordance with the terms hereof, including the prior satisfaction or written waiver of the conditions specified in Section 1.1 and 5.2 in accordance with the terms thereof; and provided, further that, if for any reason proceeds of Revolving Loans are not received by such Issuing Lender on the Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, the Borrower shall immediately reimburse such Issuing Lender, on demand, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of the amount of such payment over the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received.  If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable

 

11



 

LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Revolving Percentage thereof.  The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent upon the making of each LC Disbursement.

 

(7)                                 Obligations Absolute.  The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 1.4(6) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed 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 any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a 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 the applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

 

Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor any Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or amendment (including any renewal or extension) of any Letter of Credit by any Issuing Lender 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; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential, special, indirect and/or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that:  (i) an Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (ii) an Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (iii) this sentence and the immediately preceding sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by an Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

 

12



 

(8)                                 Disbursement Procedures.  The applicable Issuing Lender shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender.  Such Issuing Lender shall, promptly after such examination, notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) 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 and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

 

(9)                                 Interim Interest.  If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date Borrower receives notice that such LC Disbursement was made, the unpaid 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, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement within three (3) days when due pursuant to Section 1.4(6), then Section 9.1 shall apply.  Interest accrued pursuant to this section shall be for account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that a pro rata portion of the interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 1.4(5) to reimburse an Issuing Lender shall be for account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.

 

(10)                          Policy and Requirements of Law Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 1.4 to the contrary, an Issuing Lender may elect not to issue or amend (including renewal or extension of) a Letter of Credit hereunder to the extent that it reasonably determines that the issuance (or such amendment) of such Letter of Credit would breach, violate or be inconsistent with any Requirements of Law applicable to such Issuing Lender.  In such event, the Borrower may select an alternative Issuing Lender to issue such Letter of Credit.

 

(11)                          Cash Collateralization.

 

(A)                               On or prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower shall deposit into an account (the “LC Collateral Account”) established by the Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure with respect to the Borrower as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Revolving Commitment Termination LC Exposure Deposit”).  In addition:

 

(i)                                     if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Lender or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Revolving Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of Cash Collateral pursuant to this paragraph the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the LC Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure with respect to the Borrower as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that 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 with respect to the Borrower or any Consolidated Entities described in Section 9.7; and

 

13



 

(ii)                                  if at any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (only to the extent necessary as determined after giving effect to Section 1.12(1)(D)) in an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

 

Such deposits shall be held by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Agents, in the LC Collateral Account as collateral in the first instance for the LC Exposure with respect to the Borrower under this Agreement and thereafter for the payment of the other Obligations of the Borrower owing to the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Agents.

 

(B)                               The LC Collateral Account shall be maintained in the name of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Agents) and under its sole dominion and control at such place as shall be designated by the Administrative Agent.  Interest shall accrue on the LC Collateral Account at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate minus .15%.

 

(C)                               The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, as administrative agent for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the Lenders a lien on and a security interest in, the following collateral (the “Letter of Credit Collateral”):

 

(i)                                     the LC Collateral Account, all cash deposited therein and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the LC Collateral Account;

 

(ii)                                  all notes, certificates of deposit and other cash-equivalent instruments from time to time hereafter delivered to or otherwise possessed by the Administrative Agent for or on behalf of the Borrower in substitution for or in respect of any or all of the then existing Letter of Credit Collateral;

 

(iii)                               all interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the then existing Letter of Credit Collateral; and

 

(iv)                              to the extent not covered by the above clauses, all proceeds of any or all of the foregoing Letter of Credit Collateral.

 

The lien and security interest granted hereby secures the payment of all obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

 

(D)                               Neither the Borrower nor any Person claiming or acting on behalf of or through the Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the LC Collateral Account, except as provided in Section 1.4(11)(G).

 

14



 

(E)                                The Borrower agrees that it will not (i) sell or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Letter of Credit Collateral or (ii) create or permit to exist any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the Letter of Credit Collateral, except for the security interest created by this Section 1.4(11).

 

(F)                                 At any time an Event of Default shall be continuing:

 

(i)                                  the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, without notice to the Borrower except as required by law and at any time from time to time, charge, set off or otherwise apply all or any part of the LC Collateral Account to first, the aggregate amount of LC Disbursements that have not been reimbursed by the Borrower and second, any other unpaid Obligations then due and payable, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect.  The rights of the Administrative Agent under this Section 1.4(11) are in addition to any rights and remedies which any Lender may have.

 

(ii)                                  The Administrative Agent may also exercise, in its sole discretion, in respect of the LC Collateral Account, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC in effect in the State of New York at that time.

 

(G)                               At such time prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date as all Events of Default have been cured or waived in writing and there are no unreimbursed LC Disbursements outstanding or, in the case of any cash collateral provided as a result of the classification of a Lender as a Defaulting Lender, the termination of the Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender, all amounts remaining in the LC Collateral Account shall be promptly returned to the Borrower.  For avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence shall not affect Borrower’s obligation to make the Revolving Commitment Termination LC Exposure Deposit on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date as otherwise provided in Section 1.4(11)(A). Any surplus of the funds held in the LC Collateral Account remaining after payment in full of all of the Obligations, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the return of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall be paid to the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

 

1.5.                            Funding of Borrowings.

 

(1)                                 Funding by Lenders.  Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Contact Office, ABA No. 021-001-033, for further credit to Commercial Loan Division, Account No. 60200119, Reference: Macerich Revolver, no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time).  The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Base Rate Borrowings that are Revolving Borrowings (x) made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 1.4(6) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender and (y) made to repay

 

15



 

Refunded Swing Line Loans as provided in Section 1.13(2)(D) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Swing Line Lenders.

 

(2)                                 Presumption by the Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 1.5(1) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate  or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans (it being intended that such interest payment shall be the only interest payment payable by the Borrower with respect to any amount repaid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this paragraph, except that Section 2.12 shall apply if the Borrower fails to make such repayment within three (3) days after the date of such payment as required hereunder).  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount  shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

 

1.6.                            Interest Elections.

 

(1)                                 Elections by the Borrower for Borrowings.  Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request (which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”).  Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section; provided, however, any conversion or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 1.2(3) and (4).  The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Revolving Lenders holding the Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing in accordance with each such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Revolving Percentage thereof, and the Revolving Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

 

(2)                                 Notice of Elections.  To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such election (which notice may be by facsimile) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 1.3 if the Borrower was requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.  Each such Rate Request shall be irrevocable, shall be signed by a Responsible Officer and shall be in the form of Exhibit C hereto.

 

(3)                                 Information in Interest Election Requests.  Each Rate Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 1.2:

 

16



 

(i)                                     the Borrowing to which such Rate Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this section shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

 

(ii)                                  the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Rate Request, which shall be a Business Day;

 

(iii)                               whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a LIBO Rate Borrowing; and

 

(iv)                              if the resulting Borrowing is a LIBO Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

 

If any such Rate Request requests a LIBO Rate Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

 

(4)                                 Notice by the Administrative Agent to Lenders.  Promptly following receipt of a Rate Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

 

(5)                                 Failure to Elect; Potential Default and Events of Default.  If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Rate Request with respect to a LIBO Rate Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a LIBO Rate Borrowing with a one month Interest Period so long as no Potential Default or Event of Default is continuing and otherwise to a Base Rate Borrowing.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if a Potential Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the day occurring three Eurodollar Business Days prior to the date of, or on the date of, the requested funding, continuation or conversion, then, so long as a Potential Default or an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a LIBO Rate Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each LIBO Rate Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

 

1.7.                            Termination and Reduction of the Revolving Commitments.

 

(1)                                 Scheduled Termination.  Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

 

(2)                                 Voluntary Termination or Reduction.  The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 1.9, the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Commitments.

 

17



 

(3)                                 Notice of Voluntary Termination or Reduction.  The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under Section 1.7(2) above at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Revolving Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

 

(4)                                 Effect of Termination or Reduction.  Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent; provided that any such termination or reduction shall not reduce the Maximum Increase Amount.  Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments.

 

(5)                                 Extension of Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

 

(A)                               Provided that no Potential Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall have the option, to be exercised by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days (but no more than ninety (90) days) prior to the Initial Revolving Commitment Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to extend the Initial Revolving Commitment Termination Date by twelve (12) months to July 6, 2021 (the “Extended Revolving Commitment Termination Date”).  The request by the Borrower for the extension of the Initial Revolving Commitment Termination Date shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower Parties that no Potential Default or Event of Default then exists and that all of the conditions set forth in Section 1.7(5)(B) below have been satisfied on the Initial Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

 

(B)                               The obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders to extend the Initial Revolving Commitment Termination Date as provided in Section 1.7(5)(A) shall be subject to the prior (or concurrent) satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent as determined by the Administrative Agent in its good faith judgment:  (i) on the Initial Revolving Commitment Termination Date there shall exist no Potential Default or Event of Default; (ii) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders (excluding any Defaulting Lender) an extension fee equal to 0.15% of the total Revolving Commitments then outstanding (excluding such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the Revolving Commitment to the extent not reallocated to Non-Defaulting Lenders) which fee the Borrower hereby agrees shall be fully earned and nonrefundable under any circumstances when paid; (iii) the representations and warranties made by the Borrower Parties in the Loan Documents shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited under the Loan Documents and except

further that, in the event any exception or disclosure schedule provided to Administrative Agent in connection with such representations and warranties is proposed by Borrower to be updated, any such updates shall be non-material and shall be approved by the Administrative Agent in its good faith judgment) on and as of the date when made and on and as of the Initial Revolving Commitment Termination 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); provided however, that any representation or warranty that is qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects; (iv) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a Compliance Certificate demonstrating that MAC and the Borrower are in compliance with the covenants set forth in Article 8; (v) the Borrower shall have paid all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and all reasonable fees and expenses paid to third party consultants (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) by the Administrative Agent in connection with such extension; and (vi) MAC shall have acknowledged and ratified that its obligations under the REIT Guaranty remain in full force and effect and continue to guaranty the Obligations under the Loan Documents, as extended.

 

(C)                               The Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders in the event that the Borrower requests that the Initial Revolving Commitment Termination Date be extended as provided in this Section 1.7(5) and upon any such extension.

 

1.8.                            Manner of Payment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

 

(1)                                 Repayment.  Subject to any earlier acceleration of the Revolving Loans following an Event of Default, the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of the Revolving Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date.

 

(2)                                 Manner of Payment.  The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which notice may be by facsimile) of any repayment or prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of repayment or prepayment of a LIBO Rate Borrowing with an Interest Period not expiring on the date of payment, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) one Business Day before the date of repayment or prepayment, or (ii) in the case of repayment or prepayment of a LIBO Rate Borrowing with Interest Periods expiring on the date of repayment or prepayment or a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) one Business Day before the date of repayment or prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the repayment or prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be repaid or prepaid; provided that, if a notice of repayment or prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 1.7, then such notice of repayment or prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 1.7.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the Loans included in such Borrowing of the contents thereof.  Each repayment or prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid or prepaid Borrowing.  Repayments and prepayments shall be accompanied by (A) accrued interest to the extent required by Section 1.10 and (B) any payments due pursuant to Section 2.9.  If the Borrower fails to make a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid or prepaid, such

 

19



 

payment shall be applied, first, to pay any outstanding Base Rate Borrowings and, second, to other Borrowings in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid first).

 

(3)                                 Maintenance of Loan Accounts by Lenders.  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 Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

 

(4)                                 Maintenance of Register by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain a register in which it shall record the names and addresses of Lenders and Issuing Lenders and the Commitments, Letter of Credit Commitments, the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans of each Lender and the face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit of each Issuing Lender from time to time (the “Register”).  The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower, any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) or any Issuing Lender (with respect to any entry relating to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Commitments and the Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitments or Loans or Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan.  Borrower hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 1.8(4), and Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnified Persons.”

 

(5)                                 Effect of Entries.  The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Sections 1.8(3) and (4) above 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 Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(6)                                 Promissory Notes.  Upon the request of a Revolving Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Revolving Lender a Revolving Loan Note evidencing such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment.  Upon the request of a Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Swing Line Lender a Swing Line Note evidencing such Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Commitment.

 

1.9.                            Prepayment of Loans.  The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section; provided, however, that voluntary prepayments (other than a prepayment in whole) shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess

 

20



 

thereof (or, in the case of Swing Line Loans, in the minimum amount of $500,000).  Any prepayments pursuant to this Section 1.9 shall be applied first to prepay outstanding Swing Line Loans without a permanent reduction of the aggregate Swing Line Commitments and second to prepay outstanding Revolving Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) without a permanent reduction of the aggregate Revolving Commitments.

 

1.10.                     Interest.

 

(1)                                 Base Rate Loans.  Swing Line Loans and the Loans comprising each Base Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Base Rate.

 

(2)                                 LIBO Rate Loans.  The Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) constituting each LIBO Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable LIBO Rate for the Interest Period for such Borrowing.

 

(3)                                 Payment of Interest.

 

(A)                               The Borrower shall pay interest on Base Rate Borrowings monthly, in arrears, on the last Business Day of each calendar month, as set forth on an interest billing delivered by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower (which delivery may be by facsimile transmission) no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date such interest is due.

 

(B)                               The Borrower shall pay interest on the LIBO Rate Borrowings on the last day of the applicable Interest Period or, in the case of LIBO Rate Borrowings with an Interest Period ending later than three months after the date funded, converted or continued, at the end of each three month period from the date funded, converted or continued and on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, as set forth on an interest billing delivered by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower (which delivery may be by facsimile transmission) no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date such interest is due.

 

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

 

21



 

1.12.                     Defaulting Lenders.

 

(1)                                 Defaulting Lender Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

 

(A)                               Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” for purposes of any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any provision of the Loan Documents that requires the approval of Required Lenders.

 

(B)                               Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 9 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.17 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders or the Swing Line Lenders hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 1.4(11); fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 1.4(11); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Swing Line Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans are held by the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Commitments without giving effect to Section 1.12(1)(D). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 1.12(1)(B) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

 

22



 

(C)                               Certain Fees.

 

(i)                                     No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Line Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

 

(ii)                                  Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Revolving Percentage of the Stated Amount of Letters of Credit for which such Defaulting Lender has provided cash collateral from its own funds with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Revolving Percentage of the Stated Amount of Letters of Credit.

 

(iii)                               With respect to any Unused Line Fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Disbursements or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (D) below, (y) pay to the applicable Issuing Lender and the applicable Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Disbursements or Swing Line Loans that has not been reallocated to a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (D) below but instead has been retained as Fronting Exposure by such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender, as applicable, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

 

(D)                               Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Exposure and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders which are Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Revolving Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment.  Subject to Section 11.24, 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.

 

(E)                                Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Line Loans.  If the reallocation described in clause (D) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.4(11).

 

23



 

(2)                                 Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of any Revolving Lender that is a Defaulting Lender, each Issuing Lender and each Swing Line 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 Loans of other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with the Revolving Commitments (without giving effect to Section 1.12(1)(D)), 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.

 

(3)                                 New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) no Swing Line Lender shall be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loans and (ii) no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

 

(4)                                 Removal of Defaulting Lender.  At the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent or an Eligible Assignee reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to purchase from any Defaulting Lender, and each Defaulting Lender shall, upon such request, sell and assign to the Administrative Agent or such Eligible Assignee, all of the Defaulting Lender’s outstanding Commitments and Loans hereunder.  Such sale shall be consummated promptly after the Administrative Agent has arranged for a purchase by the Administrative Agent or an Eligible Assignee pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and at a price equal to the outstanding principal balance of the Defaulting Lender’s Loans, plus accrued interest, without premium or discount.

 

1.13.                     Swing Line Loans.

 

(1)                                 Swing Line Loan Commitment.  During the Availability Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Swing Line Lenders shall, from time to time make Swing Line Loans to Borrower in the aggregate amount up to but not exceeding the Swing Line Sublimit; provided, that (i) after giving effect to the making of any Swing Line Loan, in no event shall the Revolving Credit Exposures exceed the total Revolving Commitments then in effect and (ii) unless the applicable Swing Line Lender shall otherwise consent in writing, no Swing Line Lender shall be obligated to make Swing Line Loans in an aggregate outstanding principal amount determined as of the date of such Swing Line Lender’s receipt of a Borrowing Request pursuant to Section 1.13(2)(B) below, in excess of the lesser of (x) such Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Commitment and (y) an amount equal to (A) the Revolving Commitment of such Swing Line Lender in its capacity as a Lender hereunder as of such date, minus (B) the aggregate

 

24



 

outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans made by such Swing Line Lender and such Swing Line Lender’s participation interest under Section 1.4(5) in all Letters of Credit hereunder as of such date, in each case in its capacity as a Lender hereunder (such lesser amount as of such date being such Swing Line Lender’s “Individual Swing Line Sublimit”).  Amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 1.13 may be repaid and reborrowed during the Availability Period.  Each Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Commitment shall expire on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and all Swing Line Loans and all other amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Swing Line Loans and the Swing Line Commitments shall be paid in full no later than such date.

 

(2)                                  Borrowing Mechanics for Swing Line Loans.

 

(A)                               Swing Line Loans shall be made in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount.

 

(B)                               Whenever Borrower desires that the Swing Line Lenders make Swing Line Loans, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lenders a Borrowing Request no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed date of the New Borrowing.

 

(C)                               Each Swing Line Lender shall make its Applicable Swing Line Percentage of the requested Swing Line Loans available to Administrative Agent not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the applicable date of the New Borrowing by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars, at Administrative Agent’s Contact Office.  Except as provided herein, upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Swing Line Loans available to Borrower on the applicable date of the New Borrowing by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars equal to the proceeds of all such Swing Line Loans received by Administrative Agent from the Swing Line Lenders to be credited to the account of Borrower at Administrative Agent’s Contact Office, or to such other account as may be designated in writing to Administrative Agent by Borrower.  The failure of any Swing Line Lender to make its ratable portion of a Swing Line Loan shall not relieve any other Swing Line Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its ratable portion of such Swing Line Loan on the date of such Swing Line Loan, but no Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Swing Line Lender to make the ratable portion of a Swing Line Loan to be made by such other Swing Line Lender on the date of any Swing Line Loan.

 

(D)                               With respect to any Swing Line Loans which have not been voluntarily prepaid by Borrower pursuant to Section 1.9 on or prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days after the date that such Swing Line Loans were made, the Administrative Agent shall, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed date of the New Borrowing, deliver a notice to the Revolving Lenders (with a copy to the Borrower) (which shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Request given by Borrower) requesting that each Revolving Lender holding a Revolving Commitment make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans to Borrower on the date of the New Borrowing in an amount equal to the amount of such Swing Line Loans (the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”).  Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) the proceeds of such Revolving Loans made by the Revolving Lenders other than the Swing Line Lenders shall be immediately delivered by

 

25



 

Administrative Agent to the Swing Line Lenders (and not to Borrower) on a pro rata basis and applied to repay a corresponding portion of the Refunded Swing Line Loans and (y) on the day such Revolving Loans are made, each Swing Line Lender’s pro rata share of the Refunded Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be paid with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan made by such Swing Line Lender to Borrower, and such portion of the Swing Line Loans deemed to be so paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing Line Loans and shall no longer be due under the Swing Line Note of such Swing Line Lender but shall instead constitute part of such Swing Line Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans to Borrower and shall be due under the Revolving Loan Note evidencing such Revolving Loans issued by Borrower to such Swing Line Lender in its capacity as a Revolving Lender.  Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent and each Swing Line Lender to charge Borrower’s accounts with Administrative Agent and such Swing Line Lender (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay such Swing Line Lender the amount of the Refunded Swing Line Loans to the extent the proceeds of such Revolving Loans made by Revolving Lenders, including the Revolving Loans deemed to be made by such Swing Line Lender, are not sufficient to repay in full the Refunded Swing Line Loans.  If any portion of any such amount paid (or deemed to be paid) to any Swing Line Lender should be recovered by or on behalf of Borrower from a Swing Line Lender in bankruptcy, by assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all Revolving Lenders in the manner contemplated by Section 2.2.

 

(E)                                If for any reason Revolving Loans are not made pursuant to Section 1.13(2)(D) in an amount sufficient to repay any amounts owed to any Swing Line Lender in respect of any outstanding Swing Line Loans on or before the third Business Day after demand for payment thereof by the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Borrower), each Revolving Lender holding a Revolving Commitment shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have purchased a participation in such outstanding Swing Line Loans, and in an amount equal to its pro rata share of the applicable unpaid amount together with accrued interest thereon.  Upon one Business Day’s notice from the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Borrower), each Revolving Lender holding a Revolving Commitment shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Swing Line Lenders) an amount equal to its respective participation in the applicable unpaid amount in same day funds at the Contact Office of the Administrative Agent.  In order to evidence such participation, each Revolving Lender holding a Revolving Commitment agrees to enter into a participation agreement at the request of any Swing Line Lender in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Swing Line Lender.  In the event any Revolving Lender holding a Revolving Commitment fails to make available to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Swing Line Lenders) the amount of such Revolving Lender’s participation as provided in this paragraph, the Swing Line Lenders shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon for three Business Days at the rate customarily used by the applicable Swing Line Lender for the correction of errors among banks and thereafter at the Base Rate, as applicable.

 

(F)                                 Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (1) each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans pursuant to the second preceding paragraph and each Revolving Lender’s obligation to purchase a participation in any unpaid Swing Line Loans pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (v) any set off, counterclaim, recoupment,

 

26



 

defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against any Swing Line Lender, any Borrower Party or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (w) the occurrence or continuation of a Potential Default or Event of Default; (x) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Borrower Party; (y) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto; or (z) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that such obligations of each Revolving Lender are subject to the condition that the applicable Swing Line Lender had not received prior notice from the Borrower or the Required Lenders that any of the conditions under Section 5.2 to the making of the applicable Refunded Swing Line Loans or other unpaid Swing Line Loans, were not satisfied at the time such Refunded Swing Line Loans or unpaid Swing Line Loans were made; and (2) no Swing Line Lender shall be obligated to make any Swing Line Loans (x) if it has elected not to do so after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Potential Default or Event of Default, (y) it does not in good faith believe that all conditions under Section 5.2 to the making of such Swing Line Loan have been satisfied or waived by the Required Lenders or (z) at a time when any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender unless either the Revolving Commitments of such Defaulting Lender have been reallocated to other Revolving Lenders as contemplated by Section 1.12(1)(D) or such Swing Line Lender has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it and Borrower to eliminate such Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender’s participation in such Swing Line Loan, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata share of the outstanding Swing Line Loans.

 

ARTICLE 2.                           General Provisions Regarding Payments.

 

2.1.                            Payments by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or under Section 2.7, 2.9 or 2.10, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) (unless otherwise specified in this Agreement), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim; provided that if a new Loan is to be made by any Lender on a date the Borrower is to repay any principal of an outstanding Loan of such Lender, such Lender shall apply the proceeds of such new Loan to the payment of the principal to be repaid and only an amount equal to the difference between the principal to be borrowed and the principal to be repaid shall be made available by such Lender to the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 1.5 or paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph, as the case may be.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be wired to the Administrative Agent at the Contact Office, ABA No. 021-001-033, for further credit to Commercial Loan Division, Account No. 60200119, Reference: Macerich Revolver, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document, and except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Lender or a Swing Line Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.7, 2.9, 2.10 and 11.14 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing

2.2.                            Pro Rata Treatment.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:  (i) each Revolving Borrowing shall be made from the Revolving Lenders, each payment of the Unused Line Fee under Section 2.11 shall be made for account of the Revolving Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Revolving Commitments under Section 1.7 shall be applied to the respective Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Commitments; (ii) each Revolving Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Revolving Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Commitments (in the case of the making of Revolving Loans) or their respective Revolving Loans (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Loans held by them; and (iv) each payment of interest on Revolving Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Revolving Loans then due and payable to the respective Revolving Lenders.

 

2.3.                            [Reserved].

 

2.4.                            Inability to Determine Rates.  In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give telephonic notice of such determination to each Lender and to the Borrower.  If such notice is given:  (1) no portion of the Loans may be funded as a LIBO Rate Borrowing, (2) any Base Rate Borrowing that was to have been converted to a LIBO Rate Borrowing shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be continued as a Base Rate Borrowing, and (3) any outstanding LIBO Rate Borrowing shall be converted, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, to a Base Rate Borrowing.  Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall not have the right to convert any Base Rate Borrowing to a LIBO Rate Borrowing or to continue a LIBO Rate Borrowing as such.  The Administrative Agent shall withdraw such notice in the event that the circumstances giving rise thereto no longer pertain and that adequate and reasonable means exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period requested by the Borrower, and, following withdrawal of such notice by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall have the right to convert any Base Rate Borrowing to a LIBO Rate Borrowing and to continue any LIBO Rate Borrowing as such in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

2.5.                            Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any law, regulation, treaty or directive issued by any Governmental Authority or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender to maintain LIBO Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement:  (1) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to continue LIBO Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBO Rate Loans shall forthwith be cancelled, and (2) LIBO Rate Loans held by such Lender then outstanding, if any, shall be

 

28



 

converted automatically to Base Rate Loans at the end of their respective Interest Periods or within such earlier period as may be required by law.  In the event of a conversion of any LIBO Rate Loan prior to the end of its applicable Interest Period, the Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay any Lender affected thereby, upon demand, the amounts required pursuant to Section 2.9 below, it being agreed and understood that such conversion shall constitute a prepayment for all purposes of this Section 2.5.  The provisions hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of all other Obligations.

 

2.6.                            Funding.  Each Lender shall be entitled to fund all or any portion of its Commitment to make Loans in any manner it may determine in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, in the Grand Cayman inter-bank market, the London inter-bank market and within the United States, but all calculations and transactions hereunder shall be conducted as though all Lenders actually fund all LIBO Rate Loans through the purchase of offshore dollar deposits in the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Percentage of the relevant LIBO Rate Loan with a maturity corresponding to the applicable Interest Period.

 

2.7.                            Increased Costs.

 

(1)                                 Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Change in Law:

 

(A)                               Does or shall subject any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Swing Line Lender to any Taxes of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Loan, or change the basis of determining the Taxes imposed on payments to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender of principal, fee, interest or any other amount payable hereunder (except for Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes);

 

(B)                               Does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, capital or liquidity requirement, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirements against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender which are not otherwise included in the determination of interest payable on the Obligations;

 

(C)                               Does or shall impose on any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Swing Line Lender any other condition; or

 

(D)                               Does or shall impose on any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Swing Line Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or LIBO Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Revolving Commitment or its Credit Exposure or to increase the cost of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or Swing Line Loan or to reduce any amount receivable in respect thereof or the rate of return on

 

29



 

the capital of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall, without duplication of amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.10, promptly (and in any event no later than 10 Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of notice from the applicable Lender, the applicable Issuing Lender or the applicable Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.7(2) below claiming additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.7) pay to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender, upon its written demand made through the Administrative Agent, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender for such additional cost or reduced amounts receivable or rate of return as determined by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender with respect to this Agreement or such Lender’s, such Issuing Lender’s or such Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Commitment, Credit Exposure or Letter of Credit obligations.

 

(2)                                 If a Lender, an Issuing Lender or a Swing Line Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.7, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.  A certificate as to any additional amounts so claimed payable containing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail submitted by a Lender, an Issuing Lender or a Swing Line Lender to the Borrower, accompanied by a certification that such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender has required substantially all obligors under other commitments of this type made available by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender to similarly so compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender, shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender, an Issuing Lender or a Swing Line Lender pursuant to this Section 2.7 for any increased cost or reduction in respect of a period occurring more than six months prior to the date that such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Swing Line Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor unless the circumstances giving rise to such increased cost or reduction became applicable retroactively, in which case no such time limitation shall apply so long as such Lender requests compensation within six months from the date such circumstances become applicable.

 

(3)                                 Other than as set forth in this Section 2.7, the failure or delay on the part of any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Swing Line Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s, such Issuing Lender’s or such Swing Line Lender’s right to demand such compensation.  The provisions of this Section 2.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Loans and all other Obligations.

 

2.8.                            Obligation of Lenders to Mitigate; Replacement of Lenders.  Each Lender agrees that:

 

(1)                                 As promptly as reasonably practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and Credit Exposure becomes aware of any event or condition that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.7 above or Section 2.10 below or to cease maintaining LIBO Rate Loans under Section 2.5 above, such Lender will use reasonable efforts:  (i) to maintain its Revolving Commitment and Credit Exposure through another lending office of such Lender or (ii) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the

 

30



 

additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.7 above or pursuant to Section 2.10 below would be materially reduced or eliminated or the conditions rendering such Lender incapable of maintaining LIBO Rate Loans under Section 2.5 above no longer would be applicable, and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the maintaining of such LIBO Rate Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such LIBO Rate Loans or the interests of such Lender.

 

(2)                                 If the Borrower receives a notice pursuant to Section 2.7 above or pursuant to Section 2.10 below or a notice pursuant to Section 2.5 above stating that a Lender is unable to maintain LIBO Rate Loans (for reasons not generally applicable to the Required Lenders) or if any other circumstance exists hereunder which gives Borrower the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto pursuant to this Section, so long as (i) no Potential Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) the Borrower has obtained a commitment from another Lender or an Eligible Assignee to purchase at par such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, its Credit Exposure at such time and accrued interest and fees and to assume all obligations of the Lender to be replaced under the Loan Documents and (iii) if applicable, such Lender to be replaced is unwilling to withdraw the notice delivered to the Borrower, upon the date following the date on which such Lender confirms in writing to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent that it is unwilling to withdraw such notice, or, if no such written confirmation has been given, five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may require, at the Borrower’s expense, such Lender to assign, without recourse, all of its Revolving Commitment, Credit Exposure and accrued interest and fees to such other Lender or Eligible Assignee pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.8 below.

 

2.9.                            Funding Indemnification.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 1.8(2) and is revoked in accordance herewith), or (d) the assignment of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.8(2), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.  In the case of a LIBO Rate Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that such Lender would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Reserve Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for dollar deposits from other banks in the eurodollar market at the commencement of such period.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth

 

31



 

any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

 

2.10.                     Taxes.

 

(1)                                 Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Borrower Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

 

(2)                                 In addition, each Borrower Party 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.

 

(3)                                 The Borrower Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Administrative Agent or Lender, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Administrative Agent or Lender, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(4)                                 Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.8(3) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

32



 

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 (4).

 

(5)                                 As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower Party to a Governmental Authority, pursuant to this Section 2.10 such Borrower Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

 

(6)                                 (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at 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 backup withholding or 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 Section 2.10(6)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) 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 commercial position of such Lender.

 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

 

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

 

(i)  in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of

 

33



 

IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (in each case, or successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (in each case, or successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” or other applicable article of such tax treaty;

 

(ii)  executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form);

 

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-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 881(c)(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”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (in each case, or successor form); or

 

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 or J-3, IRS Form W-9 (in each case, or successor form), 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 J-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

 

(C)  any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals 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; and

 

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to

 

34



 

comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “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.

 

(7)                                 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 2.10 (including by the payment of any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower Party under this Section 2.10 with respect to 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 (7) (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 (7), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (7) 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.

 

(8)                                 Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

 

35



 

(9)                                 For purposes of this Section 2.10, the term “Lender” shall include the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender and any Swing Line Lender and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

 

2.11.                     Fees.

 

(1)                                 Unused Line Fee.  Until the Obligations have been paid in full and the Agreement terminated, the Borrower agrees to pay, on the first day of each month and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders, an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”), for each day during the immediately preceding month or shorter period if calculated on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, equal to (A) 0.20% per annum multiplied by (B) the amount by which (i) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Commitments on such day exceeded (ii) the sum of (I) the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans (excluding Swing Line Loans) on such day and (II) the undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit on such day.  The Unused Line Fee shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

 

(2)                                 Letter of Credit Fees and Costs(A)        .  (A) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Non-Defaulting Lender (based on their respective Applicable Revolving Percentage) in U.S. Dollars, a fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Macerich Entity (the “Letter of Credit Fee”), in each case for the period from and including the date of issuance of the respective Letter of Credit to and including the date of termination of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate per annum equal to the applicable “LIBO Spread” as listed in the definition of Applicable LIBO Rate on the daily Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit.  Accrued Letter of Credit Fees shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of each August, November, February and May commencing with August of 2016, and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date or such earlier date upon which the Revolving Commitments are terminated.

 

(B)                               The Borrower agrees to pay the applicable Issuing Lender, for its own account, in U.S. Dollars, a facing fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Macerich Entity by such Issuing Lender (the “Facing Fee”), for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of the termination of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum of the daily Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit; provided that in no event shall the annual Facing Fee with respect to any Letter of Credit be less than $500.  Accrued Facing Fees shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each August, November, February and May commencing with August of 2016, and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date or such earlier date upon which the Revolving Commitments are terminated.

 

(C)                               The Borrower shall pay, upon each payment under, issuance of, or amendment to, any Letter of Credit, such amount as shall at the time of such event be the administrative charge and the reasonable expenses which the applicable Issuing Lender is generally imposing for payment under, issuance of, or amendment to, Letters of Credit issued by it, not to exceed $500 per issuance or amendment.

 

36



 

(3)                                 Administrative Agent Fee.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in the Fee Letter.

 

(4)                                 Payment of Fees.  All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (except the Facing Fee which shall be paid directly to the Issuing Lenders) for distribution, in the case of the Unused Line Fee and the Letter of Credit Fee, to the Revolving Lenders entitled thereto.  Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

 

2.12.                     Default Interest.  During such time as there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, all Obligations (including any accrued and unpaid interest) outstanding, shall, at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, bear interest at a per annum rate equal to two percent (2%) above the applicable rate of interest in effect during the applicable calculation period.

 

2.13.                     Computation.  All computations of interest and fees payable hereunder shall be based upon a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year).

 

2.14.                     Application of Insufficient Payments.  If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest, fees and prepayment premiums then due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest fees and prepayment premiums then due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest, fees and prepayment premiums then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

 

ARTICLE 3.                           Incremental Facility.

 

3.1.                            Incremental Facility Request. Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent on one or more occasions prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, elect to request (A) an increase to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Loan Commitments”) and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “New Term Loan Commitments”), by an amount that would result in the sum of all Revolving Commitments (both existing and New Revolving Loan Commitments) plus all New Term Loan Commitments, if any, not exceeding $2,000,000,000 in the aggregate (each such amount in addition to the Revolving Commitments as of the Closing Date, a “Facility Increase” and the maximum aggregate increase, the “Maximum Increase Amount”) and not less than $25,000,000 per request (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by Administrative Agent or such lesser amount that shall constitute the difference between the Maximum Increase Amount and the sum of all such New Revolving Loan Commitments plus New Term Loan Commitments obtained prior to such date), and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount.  Each such notice shall specify (A) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on

(5)                                 If any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each Lender that would be directly and adversely affected thereby or the consent of all Lenders, as the case may be, the Borrower may replace such non-consenting Lender in accordance with Section 2.8(2); provided that (i) such proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release has otherwise been approved by the Required Lenders and (ii) such amendment, waiver, consent or release can be effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made pursuant to this paragraph).

 

Further, it is expressly agreed and understood that the failure by the Required Lenders to elect to accelerate amounts outstanding hereunder and/or to terminate the Commitments of the Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereunder shall not constitute a Modification or waiver of any term or provision of this Agreement.

71



 

shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment and delegation unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof and (iii) MAC’s refusal to consent to an assignment to an assignee on the basis that MAC would be obligated to pay to the assignee pursuant to Section 2.7 an amount in excess of the amount payable to the applicable assignor pursuant to Section 2.7 immediately prior to such assignment is deemed to be reasonable) (each an “Assignee”) all or any part of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) and the other Obligations held by such Lender hereunder, in a minimum amount of $5 million (or (A) if such Assignee is another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, $1 million, or such lesser amount as agreed by the Administrative Agent; and (B) if such Lender’s Commitment is less than $5 million, one hundred percent (100%) thereof); provided, however, that MAC, the Borrower, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders and the Administrative Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the Borrower, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders and the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Assignee and such assignment shall have been recorded in the Register in accordance with Section 11.8(1)(B); (ii) such Lender and its Assignee shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement; and (iii) the Assignee has paid to the Administrative Agent a processing fee in the amount of $3,500.

 

(A)                               From and after the date that the Administrative Agent notifies the assignor Lender and the Borrower that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and payment of the above-referenced processing fee:  (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents (but shall be entitled to indemnification as otherwise provided in this Agreement with respect to any events occurring prior to the assignment) and (iii) this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments resulting therefrom.

 

(B)                               Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until receipt by Administrative Agent of a fully executed Assignment and Acceptance Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof, together with the required forms and certificates regarding tax matters and any fees payable in connection with such assignment, in each case, as provided in Section 11.8(1).  Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of the fully executed Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and all other necessary documents and approvals, prompt notice thereof shall be

 

72



 

provided to Borrower and a copy of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement shall be maintained, as applicable.  Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans.

 

(2)                                 Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice by the Administrative Agent that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and payment of the processing fee (which notice shall also be sent by the Administrative Agent to each Lender), the Borrower shall, if requested by the Assignee, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, a new Note evidencing such Assignee’s Revolving Commitment.

 

(3)                                 Any Lender may at any time, without notice to or the consent of any other Person, sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons not Affiliates of the Borrower (a “Participant”) participating interests in all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it) (the “Originating Lender”); provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In the case of any such participation, the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 (and subject to the burdens of Sections 2.8 and 11.8 above), and the benefits of Section 2.10 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.10(6) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.10(6) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) as though it were also a Lender thereunder, and if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, and Section 11.10 of this Agreement shall apply to such Participant as if it were a Lender party hereto.

 

(4)                                 Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Lender may pledge and/or assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it) to any Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, provided that any payment in respect of such pledged and assigned interests made by the Borrower to or for the account of the assigning and/or pledging Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Borrower’s obligations hereunder in respect to such assigned interests to the extent of such payment.  No such pledge or assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

 

73



 

(5)                                 Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain at one of its offices a register on which it enters the names and addresses of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document)  except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding  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.

 

(6)                                 No Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (1) of this Section 11.8, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs (3) and (5) of this Section 11.8, or (iii) by way of assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (4) of this Section 11.8 (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).

 

(7)                                 A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.7 or 2.10 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with MAC’s prior written consent.

 

11.9.                     Counterparts; Electronic Execution.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

 

11.10.              Sharing of Payments.  If any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Swing Line Lender shall receive and retain any payment, whether by setoff, application of deposit balance or security,  or otherwise,  in respect of the Obligations in excess of such Lender’s, such Swing Line Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s Applicable Revolving Percentage, then such Lender, such Swing Line Lender or such Issuing Lender shall purchase from the other Revolving Lenders, for cash and at face value and without recourse, such participation in the Obligations held by them as shall be necessary to cause such excess payment to be shared ratably as aforesaid with each of them; provided, that if such excess payment or part thereof is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender, the related purchases from the other Lenders shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but without interest.  Each Lender, each Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Lender are hereby authorized by the Borrower Parties to exercise

 

74



 

any and all rights of setoff, counterclaim or bankers’ lien against the full amount of the Obligations, whether or not held by such Lender, such Swing Line Lender or such Issuing Lender.  Each of the Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereby agree to exercise any such rights first against the Obligations and only then to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender, such Swing Line Lender or such Issuing Lender.

 

11.11.              Confidentiality.  Each Lender, each Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all information provided to it by any of the Borrower Parties or by the Administrative Agent on the Borrower Parties’ behalf, in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall use any such information for any purpose or in any manner other than pursuant to the terms contemplated by this Agreement, except to the extent such information:  (1) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by any Lender, any Swing Line Lender or any Issuing Lender or any prospective Lender, or (2) was or becomes available from a source other than the Borrower Parties not known to the Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders or the Issuing Lenders to be in breach of an obligation of confidentiality to the Borrower Parties in the disclosure of such information.  Nothing contained herein shall restrict any Lender, any Swing Line Lender or any Issuing Lender from disclosing such information (i) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority; (ii) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (iii) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (iv) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which the Administrative Agent, any Swing Line Lender, any Issuing Lender, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be party; (v) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (vi) to such Lender’s, such Swing Line Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates and to their and their Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential); (vii) to the extent such disclosure is otherwise consented to by the Borrower; (viii) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Borrower Parties received by it from any Agent or any Lender; (ix) to the other parties to this Agreement; (x) to bank trade publications (in the case of this clause (x), such information limited to deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications); and (xi) to any Participant or Assignee and to any prospective Participant or Assignee or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower Parties and their obligations, provided that each Participant and Assignee,  prospective Participant or Assignee or contractual counterparty first agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 11.11 or to confidentiality provisions that are at least as restrictive as this Section 11.11.

 

11.12.              Consent to Jurisdiction.  SUBJECT TO CLAUSE (E) OF THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE, ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE

NOTES:

(1)                     The Annual Effective Interest Rate includes the amortization of debt premiums/discounts and deferred loan costs

(2)                     The Company is negotiating with the loan servicer for Flagstaff Mall, which will likely result in a transition of the asset to the loan

(3)                     The property is a consolidated joint venture.

(4)                     The Company’s joint venture has closed a five-year extension of this loan on May 23, 2016. The extended and modified loan matures May 30, 2021, and the closing balance was $3.1 million at the Company’s share.

(5)                     The Company’s joint venture closed a refinance loan on May 27, 2016. The new loan is $375M million ($187.5 million at the Company’s share), and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.68% for twelve-year term through June 1, 2028..

(6)                     This loan is secured in full by a letter of credit, the Company’s share of which is $60 million.

MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

 

THIS MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of                                  , 20[   ], by and between [Owner’s Legal Name], a                                 , having a principal address at 401 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 700, Santa Monica, California 90401 (“Owner”), and MACERICH PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, having a principal address at 401 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 700, Santa Monica, California 90401 (“Manager”).

 

R E C I T A L S

 

WHEREAS, Owner owns that certain shopping center located in [City], [State] commonly known as [Common Name of Mall] (the “Property”); and

 

WHEREAS, Owner desires to retain Manager to provide certain property management services in connection with the Property and Manager desires to provide such management services as more particularly set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals, the mutual covenants herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Owner and Manager hereby agree as follows:

 

A G R E E M E N T

 


APPOINTMENT AND SERVICES OF MANAGER

 

Appointment.  Owner hereby hires Manager to manage, serve, lease, maintain and operate the Property, from and after the date hereof until this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Article VII hereof.

 

Services of Manager.  Manager shall generally manage and operate the Property in accordance with prevailing standards applicable to properties of similar size and character, and in compliance with the leases and occupancy and operating agreements with tenants or other occupants of the Property.  Subject to the terms and conditions herein stated, and provided that the Manager’s fee compensation and expenses are paid by Owner as provided in Sections 2.1 and 2.2, Manager shall, in connection with such management and operation, perform the following services with due diligence, prudence, skill and care:

 

Leasing.  Subject to the Budgets (as defined in Article IV), Manager shall promote the leasing of the Property by use of advertising, floor plans, circular or promotional aids, and shall deal promptly and efficiently with all inquiries relating to leases.  Manager shall negotiate with tenants and prospective tenants for leases and extensions, renewals, modifications, amendments or terminations thereof, for space held for lease in the Property, and shall submit such agreements to Owner for Owner’s approval and execution. Manager shall cause Owner’s attorneys to prepare lease documents for all space in the Property using the standard form of lease pre-approved by Owner.  Once fully executed, Manager shall deliver to Owner an executed

 



 

original of each lease, modification, amendment and other document relating to the leases or any tenant’s occupancy of the Property.  Manager shall maintain a copy of all such leases, modifications, amendments and other documents on-site at the Property.

 

Rent.  Manager shall use its best efforts to collect, or cause to be collected, for Owner’s account, rent and other charges due from all tenants and occupants of the Property and shall deposit all moneys collected in the Operating Account (as defined in Section 5.1).  Manager shall obtain and review and cause to be audited, when deemed appropriate by Manager, statements of sales furnished by tenants to support their payments of percentage rentals and deductions and to remit the amount thereof to Owner, along with copies of said statements, at the times and in the manner hereinafter set forth.  After obtaining Owner’s approval, Manager shall serve notices upon tenants to quit and surrender space occupied by them when such tenants are in default under their leases after applicable notice and grace periods, if any, and sue, utilizing counsel approved by Owner, on behalf of Owner for rent and other charges which may at any time be or become due from any tenant and institute summary proceedings to recover possession of space.

 

Offices.  At no cost to Manager, Owner shall provide Manager with, and Manager shall maintain, an office or offices for the management of the Property and pay the salaries of all employees of Manager at the Property and all other expenses in connection with the operation of any office or offices of Manager, including telephone, stationary of Manager and heat and light for the area or areas occupied at Manager’s office(s) at the Property.  Manager shall have the right to use fixtures, furniture, furnishings and equipment which are the property of Owner in said office space.

 

Repairs.  At Owner’s expense, Manager shall make or cause to be made such ordinary repairs, alterations and improvements to the Property as approved in the Budgets, including those of a structural nature, and purchase such supplies, tools and equipment (which shall be the property of Owner) necessary for such repairs, alterations and improvements as it deems advisable or necessary; provided, however, unless included in the Capital Budget, Manager shall obtain Owner’s written consent to any capital expenditure or related group of capital expenditures, if the cost thereof exceeds $50,000 in the aggregate annually; provided further, however, that if Manager in its prudent judgment believes emergency repairs or replacements are necessary for the preservation or safety of persons or property, or to avoid the suspension of any necessary service in or to the Property, Manager may carry out said repairs, irrespective of the cost thereof, without the prior approval of Owner.  Manager shall furnish Owner with a written report submitted within three (3) days of making such emergency repairs describing the cause of such repairs, the actual repairs undertaken and the cost of such repairs.  In connection therewith, Manager may engage architects, engineers or other similar experts acceptable to Owner.

 

Equipment; Supplies.  At Owner’s expense, Manager shall purchase all equipment, tools, appliances, materials, supplies and uniforms necessary or desirable for the maintenance and operation of the Property, which shall be the property of Owner.  Manager shall use its reasonable efforts to secure all discounts, rebates and commissions, and shall credit to Owner any and all such discounts, rebates or commissions obtained for said purchases.

 



 

Contracts.  In accordance with the Budgets, Manager shall contract or arrange for the furnishing of services appropriate or necessary for the operation, maintenance and security of the Property; provided however, unless included in the Budgets, and unless necessary in the case of an emergency to protect person or property, or to avoid the suspension of any necessary service in or to the Property, Manager shall not enter into any contract having a term longer than one (1) year or requiring annual payments in excess of $50,000 without obtaining Owner’s prior written consent.  Once fully executed, Manager shall deliver to Owner an executed original of each contract and shall maintain on-site at the Property a copy of each contract.

 

Employees.  Manager shall engage, pay (subject to reimbursement as hereinafter provided), supervise and discharge such employees as Manager deems necessary for the operation, maintenance and security of the Property, all such employees to be in the employ of Manager or in the employ of other firms, corporations or persons and not in the employ of Owner.  Manager shall fully comply with all applicable laws and regulations having to do with workers’ compensation, social security, unemployment insurance, hours of labor, wages, working conditions, non-discrimination and other employer/employee-related subjects, and shall comply with all collective bargaining agreements, if any.  Manager shall have the right to review and approve all collective bargaining agreements which affect the Property prior to their implementation or acceptance by Manager.

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED UNCONDITIONAL GUARANTY

 

 

THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED UNCONDITIONAL GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) is dated as of July 6, 2016, and made by THE MACERICH COMPANY, a Maryland corporation (“Guarantor”), in favor of DEUTSCHE BANK AG NEW YORK BRANCH, in its capacity as Administrative Agent for the Lenders described below (in such capacity, together with its successors in such capacity, “Administrative Agent”).

 

R E C I T A L S

 

A.        Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement referred to below.

 

B.        Pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, the Existing Lenders have made a $1,500,000,000 revolving credit facility and a $125,000,000 term loan facility available to The Macerich Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”) and certain subsidiaries and affiliates of Borrower.

 

C.        Pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Unconditional Guaranty dated as of August 6, 2013 (as Modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Guaranty”) made by Guarantor in favor of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as administrative agent for the Existing Lenders, Guarantor guaranteed the obligations of Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement.

 

D.        Pursuant to that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of even date herewith (as Modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) by and among Borrower, Guarantor, the Lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and Borrower have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety and DBNY has agreed to act as Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein and in the other Loan Documents.

 

E.        It is a condition precedent to the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety and the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement that Guarantor execute and deliver this Guaranty to Administrative Agent.

 

A G R E E M E N T

 

NOW THEREFORE, to induce the Lenders, Swing Line Lenders and Issuing Lenders to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety, to enter into and deliver the Credit Agreement and to continue to extend the Loans and other financial accommodations to Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

 

1



 

1.             Guarantee of Obligations.  Guarantor does hereby unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably guarantee to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, Swing Line Lenders, Issuing Lenders, and Agents and their respective successors and assigns, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, (a) the due and punctual payment by Borrower of all Obligations (including interest accruing and other monetary obligations incurred during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding or otherwise enforceable, but excluding any Excluded Swap Obligations), when and as due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, upon one or more dates set for prepayment or otherwise, and (b) the due and punctual performance of all covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities of Borrower under or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than any Excluded Swap Obligations) (all the monetary and other obligations referred to in the preceding clauses (a) and (b) being collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be Modified, waived, accelerated or compromised from time to time, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any Modification, waiver, acceleration or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations.  For purposes of this Guaranty, “Excluded Swap Obligations” means, with respect to Guarantor, any Swap Obligation if, and to the extent that, all or a portion of the guarantee of Guarantor of such Swap Obligation (or any guarantee thereof) is or becomes illegal under the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute (the “Commodity Exchange Act”), or any rule, regulation or order of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (or the application or official interpretation of any thereof) by virtue of Guarantor’s failure for any reason to constitute an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder at the time the guarantee of Guarantor becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation.  If a Swap Obligation arises under a master agreement governing more than one swap, such exclusion shall apply only to the portion of such Swap Obligation that is attributable to swaps for which such guarantee is or becomes illegal.  For purposes of this Guaranty, “Swap Obligation” means, with respect to Guarantor, any obligation to pay or perform under any agreement, contract or transaction that constitutes a “swap” within the meaning of section 1a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

 

2.             Nature of Guaranty.  This is an irrevocable, absolute, continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not a guaranty of collection.  Guarantor waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender to any of the security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender in favor of Borrower or any other person.  This Guaranty may not be revoked by Guarantor and shall continue to be effective with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations arising or created after any attempted revocation by Guarantor.  It is the intent of Guarantor that the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder are absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and that until the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and finally satisfied, such obligations and liabilities shall not be discharged or released in whole or in part, by any act or occurrence which might, but for the provisions of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge or release of Guarantor.

3.             Rights Independent.  The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the Obligations of Borrower or the obligations of any other Person, including any other Person executing a guaranty of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations (such Person, an “Other Guarantor”) or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, and Administrative Agent may proceed in the enforcement hereof independently of any other right or remedy that Administrative Agent may at any time hold with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any security or other guarantee therefor.  Administrative Agent may file a separate action or actions against Guarantor hereunder, whether an action is brought and prosecuted with respect to any security or against Borrower or any Other Guarantor or any other Person, or whether Borrower or any Other Guarantor or any other Person is joined in any such action or actions.  Guarantor waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations.  The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the rights of each Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender and Lender shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on account of the Guaranteed Obligations which shall thereafter be required to be restored or returned by any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender upon the bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization of Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid.  Guarantor further agrees to the extent (i) Borrower or Guarantor makes any payment to any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations and all or any part of such payment is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by the trustee, receiver or any other entity, whether under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States of America, any other federal, state or local laws concerning bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or otherwise, or (ii) in the event following the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender, or Lender is subject to further liability, loss, or expense covered by the indemnification obligations set forth in the Loan Documents (the payments and obligations referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above are hereafter referred to, collectively, as “Preferential Payments”), then this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, and, to the extent of such payment or repayment by such Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender, the Guaranteed Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied by such Preferential Payment shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said Preferential Payment had not been made.

 

4.             Authority to Modify the Guaranteed Obligations.  Guarantor authorizes each Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender and Lender, without notice to or demand on Guarantor and without affecting its liability hereunder or the enforceability hereof, from time to time to:  (a) Modify, waive, accelerate or compromise the time for payment or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, including increase or decrease the rates of interest thereon; (b) Modify, waive, accelerate, compromise, or enter into or give any agreement, approval, or consent with respect to, the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any of the Loan Documents or any security or additional guaranties, or any condition, covenant, default, remedy, right, representation, or term thereof or thereunder; (c) accept new or additional instruments, documents, or agreements in exchange for or relative to any of the Loan Documents or the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (d) accept partial payments on the Guaranteed Obligations; (e) receive and hold additional security or guaranties for the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or this Guaranty; (f) release, reconvey, terminate, waive, abandon, subordinate, exchange, substitute, transfer, and enforce the Guaranteed Obligations or any security or any other guaranties, and apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as such Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender in its discretion may determine; (g) release Borrower, any other Person or any Other Guarantor from any personal

liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (h) settle, release on terms satisfactory to such Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender or by operation of law or otherwise, compound, compromise, collect, or otherwise liquidate or enforce any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any security or other guarantee in any manner, consent to the transfer of any security, and bid and purchase at any sale; and (i) consent to the merger or any other change, restructure, or termination of the corporate existence of Borrower or any other Person and correspondingly restructure the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such merger, change, restructure, or termination shall not affect the liability of Guarantor hereunder or the enforceability hereof with respect to all Guaranteed Obligations.

 

5.             Waiver of Defenses.

 

(a)           Guarantor waives any right to require any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender, prior to or as a condition to the enforcement of this Guaranty, to:  (i) proceed against Borrower or any other Person or any Other Guarantor; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or to marshal assets in connection with foreclosing collateral security; (iii) give notice of the terms, time, and place of any public or private sale of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; or (iv) pursue any other remedy in such Agent’s, Swing Line Lender’s, Issuing Lender’s or Lender’s power whatsoever.

 

(b)           Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of:  (i) any disability or other defense of Borrower or any other Person with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) the unenforceability or invalidity of the Guaranteed Obligations, any of the Loan Documents or any security or any other guarantee for the Guaranteed Obligations, or the lack of perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower or any other Person or any Other Guarantor (other than by reason of the full payment and discharge of the Guaranteed Obligations); (iv) any act or omission of any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender or any other Person which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of Borrower or any other Person or the Guaranteed Obligations or any security or other guarantee therefor by operation of law or otherwise; (v) the taking or accepting of any other security, collateral or guaranty, or other assurance of the payment or performance of all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any release, surrender, exchange, subordination, deterioration, waste, loss or impairment by any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender (including any negligent impairment but excluding any gross negligent or willful impairment) of any collateral, property or security, at any time existing in connection with, or assuring or securing payment of, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) the failure of any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender, Lender or other Person to exercise diligence or reasonable care in the preservation, protection, enforcement, sale or other handling or treatment of all or any part of any collateral, property or security (but excluding any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender); (viii) the fact that any collateral, security, security interest or lien contemplated or intended to be given, created or granted as security for the repayment of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be properly perfected or created, or shall prove to be unenforceable or subordinate to any other security interest or lien; (ix) any payment by Borrower to any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender is held to constitute a preference under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States of America or any other federal, state or local laws concerning bankruptcy,

insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or for any reason any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender is required to refund such payment or pay such amounts to Borrower or someone else; and (x) any and all other suretyship or guarantor defenses that may be available to Guarantor (other than by reason of the full payment and discharge of the Guaranteed Obligations).

 

(c)            Guarantor waives:  (i) all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and all other notices of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments, claims or counterclaims; and (iii) any right to revoke or terminate this Guaranty.

 

6.             Subordination.

 

(a)           Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that the principal of, or interest on, all now existing and hereafter arising Indebtedness of Borrower and the other Borrower Parties to Guarantor (the “Claims”) and all rights and remedies of Guarantor with respect thereto and any lien securing payment thereof are and shall continue to be subject, subordinate and rendered junior in the right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, as the same may be Modified, waived, accelerated or compromised from time to time.

 

(b)           Guarantor represents and warrants to Administrative Agent that Guarantor is or will be the sole and absolute owner of the Claims and shall not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any right it may have to repayment of the Claims or any security therefor except to the extent permitted under the Credit Agreement.  Guarantor hereby further covenants and agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid and performed in full:  (i) Guarantor will not sell, assign, transfer or endorse the Claims or any part or evidence thereof; (ii) Guarantor will not Modify the Claims or any part or evidence thereof; and (iii) Guarantor will not take, or permit any action to be taken, to assert, collect or enforce the Claims or any part thereof.

 

(c)            Upon any distribution of all of the assets of Borrower to creditors of Borrower upon the dissolution, winding up, liquidation, arrangement, or reorganization of Borrower, whether in any bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, reorganization or receivership proceeding or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of Borrower or otherwise, any payment or distribution of any kind (whether in cash, property or securities) which is payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Claims shall be held in trust for the Agents, Swing Line Lenders, Issuing Lenders and Lenders and shall be paid over or delivered to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, Swing Line Lenders, Issuing Lenders and Agents to be applied against the payment or prepayment of the Guaranteed Obligations until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full.  If any proceeding referred to in the preceding sentence is commenced by or against Borrower:  (i) Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of Guarantor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution referred to in the preceding sentence and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including, without

limitation, voting the Claims or enforcing any security interest or other lien securing payment of the Claims) as Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of Administrative Agent hereunder; and (ii) Guarantor shall duly and promptly take such action as Administrative Agent may reasonably request (A) to collect the Claims for account of Administrative Agent and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of the Claims, (B) to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such powers of attorney, assignments, or other instruments as it may reasonably request in order to enable it to enforce any and all claims with respect to, and any security interests and other liens securing payment of, the Claims, and (C) to collect and receive any and all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Claims.

 

(d)           Upon any distribution of all of the assets of any Borrower Party to creditors of such Borrower Party upon the dissolution, winding up, liquidation, arrangement, or reorganization of such Borrower Party, whether in any bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, reorganization or receivership proceeding or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of such Borrower Party or otherwise, any payment or distribution of any kind (whether in cash, property or securities) which is payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Claims shall be held in trust for the Agents, Swing Line Lenders, Issuing Lenders and Lenders and shall be paid over or delivered to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, Swing Line Lenders, Issuing Lenders and Agents to be applied against the payment or prepayment of the Guaranteed Obligations until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full.  If any proceeding referred to in the preceding sentence is commenced by or against any Borrower Party:  (i) Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of Guarantor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution referred to in the preceding sentence and give acquittance therefore and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including, without limitation, voting the Claims or enforcing any security interest or other lien securing payment of the Claims) as Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of Administrative Agent hereunder; and (ii) Guarantor shall duly and promptly take such action as Administrative Agent may reasonably request (A) to collect the Claims for account of Administrative Agent and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of the Claims, (B) to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such powers of attorney, assignments, or other instruments as it may reasonably request in order to enable it to enforce any and all claims with respect to, and any security interests and other liens securing payment of, the Claims, and (C) to collect and receive any and all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Claims.

 

(e)            All payments or distributions upon or with respect to the Claims which are received by Guarantor contrary to the provisions of this Guaranty shall be received in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by Guarantor and shall be forthwith paid over to Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to, or held as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for, the payment or prepayment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

7.            Deferral of Subrogation.  Until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full, (i) Guarantor shall not exercise any rights of subrogation, contribution or reimbursement against Borrower or any Other Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, and (ii) Guarantor shall not exercise any right to enforce any right, power or remedy which any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender now has or may in the future have against Borrower or any Other Guarantor and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security for this Guaranty or for the obligations of Borrower or any Other Guarantor now or in the future held by any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender.  If Guarantor nevertheless receives payment of any amount on account of any such subrogation, contribution or reimbursement rights or otherwise in respect of any payment by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations prior to payment and performance in full of all of the Guaranteed Obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and immediately paid to Administrative Agent for application to the Guaranteed Obligations in such order and manner as Administrative Agent may determine.  For the avoidance of doubt, neither this Section 7 nor any other provision of this Guaranty shall prohibit Guarantor from receiving (and retaining for its own account) any distributions made by Borrower in accordance with Section 8.10 of the Credit Agreement that are not made on account of the exercise by Guarantor of any rights of subrogation, contribution or reimbursement.

 

8.            Condition of Borrower.  Guarantor represents and warrants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, Swing Line Lenders, Issuing Lenders and Agents, that:  (a) this Guaranty is executed at the request of Borrower; (b) Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from Borrower on a continuing basis financial and other information pertaining to the business of Borrower; (c) Guarantor is now and will continue to be adequately familiar with the business, operations, condition, and assets of Borrower; (d) Guarantor will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (e) the agreements, waivers and acknowledgements contained herein are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.  Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender to disclose to Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations, condition, or assets of Borrower now known or hereafter known by any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender during the life of this Guaranty.  With respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, no Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender need inquire into the powers of Borrower or the officers or employees acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and all Guaranteed Obligations made or created in good faith reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereby.

 

9.            Representations and Warranties of Guarantor.  Guarantor represents and warrants to Administrative Agent that all of the representations and warranties relating to Guarantor contained in the Credit Agreement are true and correct as of the date made.

 

10.          Payments.  All payments made by Guarantor to or for the account of any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender shall be made without condition or deduction of any kind, including for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or set-off.  All payments made by Guarantor hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes.  Guarantor shall pay such Taxes and shall promptly furnish to Administrative Agent copies of any tax receipts or such evidence of payment as any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender may reasonably require.

13.          Termination.  The guarantees made hereunder (a) shall terminate when all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full, and (b) shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Lender or Guarantor upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower, Guarantor or otherwise.

 

14.          No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  The rights, powers and remedies of Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and in addition to all rights, powers and remedies provided under any and all agreements among Guarantor, Borrower, any Agent, any Swing Line Lender, any Issuing Lender and/or any Lender relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, at law, in equity or otherwise.  Any delay or failure by Administrative Agent to exercise any right, power or remedy shall not constitute a waiver thereof by any Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Lender or Lender, and no single or partial exercise by Administrative Agent of any right, power or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or any exercise of any other rights, powers or remedies.  Without limiting the foregoing, Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, Swing Line Lenders, Issuing Lenders and other Agents is hereby authorized to demand specific performance of this Guaranty at any time when Guarantor shall have failed to comply with any of the provisions of this Guaranty applicable to it.

 

15.          Amendments.  Subject to Section 11.2 of the Credit Agreement, this Guaranty may be Modified only by, and none of the terms hereof may be waived without, a written instrument executed by Guarantor and Administrative Agent.

 

16.          Waivers.  Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth in this Guaranty are made with Guarantor’s full knowledge of their significance and consequences, and that under the circumstances, the waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law.  If any of such waivers are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers shall be effective only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

 

17.          Binding Agreement.  This Guaranty and the terms, covenants, and conditions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Guarantor, each Agent, each Swing Line Lender, each Issuing Lender, each Lender, and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that Guarantor shall not be permitted to transfer, convey, assign or delegate this Guaranty or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and, to the extent required pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the other Agents.  Each Lender, Swing Line Lender and Issuing Lender may assign its interest hereunder in whole or in part in connection with an assignment of its interest in the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement (including pursuant to Section 11.8 thereof).

18.          GOVERNING LAW.  THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

19.          JURISDICTION.  ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS.  GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS GUARANTY.  GUARANTOR WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY NEW YORK LAW.

 

20.          WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  GUARANTOR, AND BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS GUARANTY, EACH AGENT, SWING LINE LENDER, ISSUING LENDER AND LENDER, WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS GUARANTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE.  GUARANTOR, AND BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS GUARANTY, EACH AGENT, SWING LINE LENDER, ISSUING LENDER AND LENDER, AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY.  WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, GUARANTOR, AND BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS GUARANTY, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH OF THE LENDERS, FURTHER AGREES THAT ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS GUARANTY OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF.  THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS GUARANTY.

 

21.          Severability.  In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Guaranty should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision hereof in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction).  The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

 

10



 

22.          Counterparts.  This Guaranty may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Guaranty by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Guaranty.

 

23.          Exculpation.  In no event shall any officer, director, employee, agent, consultant, investor or manager of Guarantor, nor shall any other Person (except only the Guarantor), have any guaranty or indemnification obligation or liability of any kind under this Guaranty.

 

24.          Miscellaneous.  All words used herein in the plural shall be deemed to have been used in the singular, and all words used herein in the singular shall be deemed to have been used in the plural, where the context and construction so require.  Section headings in this Guaranty are included for convenience of reference only and are not a part of this Guaranty for any other purpose.

 

25.          Effect of Amendment and Restatement.  This Guaranty amends and restates the Existing Guaranty in its entirety.  It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that this Guaranty is in no way intended to and does not constitute a novation or termination of the obligations and liabilities existing under the Existing Guaranty or evidence satisfaction of all or any of such obligations and liabilities, nor does the amendment and restatement hereunder of the Existing Guaranty, or the concurrent amendment and restatement of any document, agreement, waiver or other instrument executed in connection therewith, constitute a waiver of any conditions or requirements set forth herein or therein, whether or not performed, fulfilled or required to be performed or fulfilled prior to the date hereof.  This Guaranty does not evidence a termination and re-guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations under the Existing Guaranty (which guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be continuing in all respects).  Any reference to the “Guaranty” or the “REIT Guaranty” or words of like import in any other Loan Document shall mean this Guaranty as hereby amended and restated.
