Preliminary Statement 2.

The Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) were commenced to

implement the terms of a prepackaged restructuring transaction that has broad support across the Debtors’ capital structure and the unanimous support of creditors entitled to vote on the prepackaged plan (based on ballots received as of the Petition Date).3 This is the culmination of several months of effort of the Debtors, their advisors, and their major stakeholders from nearly all levels of the capital structure—including an ad hoc group of Prepetition First Lien Lenders (as defined below) (the “Ad Hoc First Lien Group”), an ad hoc group of Prepetition Second Lien Lenders (as defined below) (the “Ad Hoc Second Lien Group”), and the Debtors’ prepetition private equity sponsor. These parties have worked diligently and in good faith to negotiate the terms of the Debtors’ comprehensive restructuring, the material terms of which were set forth in a restructuring support agreement (the “RSA”).

These efforts have culminated in the

commencement by the Debtors of the Chapter 11 Cases following the launch of the solicitation of the Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Ameriforge Inc. and Its Debtor Affiliates, filed contemporaneously herewith (the “Plan”), which solicitation was launched on April 21, 2017, and will be completed on May 5, 2017. Altogether, the Plan will result in the reduction of the Debtors’ funded debt obligations by approximately $681 million. 3.

The Plan is the centerpiece of a series of interdependent agreements, each one

critical to the others and necessary for the Debtors’ reorganization. One such critical agreement is the Debtors’ postpetition debtor-in-possession financing (the “DIP Financing”). The DIP Financing consists of (a) the DIP Credit Agreement proposed to be entered into by the Debtors 3

As of the Petition Date, all 118 creditors who have voted on the Plan have voted to accept the Plan. Based on the voting results to date and the commitments of the parties under the RSA, prior to the conclusion of the solicitation period on May 5, 2017, the Debtors expect to satisfy the thresholds of amount and number required under section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code such that both classes of impaired claims under the Plan will have accepted the Plan.

Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 5 of 45

and the DIP Secured Parties that will supply the Debtors with critical and necessary new money to fund these Chapter 11 Cases, (b) a commitment for exit financing that provides the Debtors’ with a clear path toward emergence on an expedited timeline, and (c) the consent of the Prepetition Secured Parties to use cash collateral (“Cash Collateral”).4 4.

The DIP Facility portion of the DIP Financing consists of (a) a secured super-

priority postpetition credit facility in the form of a multiple-draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $70 million, and also provides for (i) the Existing Letters of Credit and (ii) the New Letters of Credit, and (b) the consensual use of the Cash Collateral of the Prepetition Secured Parties. The DIP Facility will be secured by first priority liens on, and security interests in, all of the Debtors’ unencumbered assets as of the Petition Date and superpriority priming liens on, and security interests in, all of the Debtors’ assets that are encumbered as of the Petition Date, subject to certain permitted liens. Any New Letters of Credit are issued under the DIP Facility will be cash collateralized under the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement. Obtaining access to the DIP Financing, including the use of Cash Collateral, on the first day of these Chapter 11 Cases is a prerequisite for the Debtors’ major stakeholders to support the Plan and is critical for the success of the Debtors’ reorganization efforts. 5.

The DIP Lenders also have agreed to provide the Debtors with exit financing

through their agreement to backstop the Debtors’ term loan exit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $70 million (the “Exit Term Loan Facility”) that will be used to satisfy certain of the DIP Claims in the event that the Exit Term Loan Facility is not fully subscribed by eligible First Lien Lenders, in which case the DIP Lenders have agreed to convert their claims under the DIP

4

“Cash Collateral” as defined by section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

5


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 6 of 45

Facility into term loans under the Exit Term Loan Facility. 5 The exit commitments, including the DIP Lenders’ willingness to convert their outstanding claims under the DIP Facility into claims under the Exit Term Loan Facility (rather than requiring to be paid in cash in full), provide the Debtors at the outset of these Chapter 11 Cases with a clear and committed path to emerge from the Chapter 11 Cases in an expeditious manner. 6.

In addition to being a critical component of the Plan and the related

interdependent agreements, the DIP Financing, including the consensual use of Cash Collateral, is vital to the Debtors’ emergence from these Chapter 11 Cases as a reorganized business enterprise. The DIP Financing is necessary to provide working capital during the pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases. Without access to the DIP Financing, the Debtors will not have sufficient cash on hand to maintain uninterrupted business operations, provide ongoing service to their customers, or pay their employees while they restructure their businesses.

Such a

disruption in operations would likely have a grave and immediate impact on the Debtors’ businesses and negatively impact their restructuring efforts to the detriment of all stakeholders. 7.

As described in greater detail herein and in the Sorensen Declaration, the DIP

Financing is the result of a fulsome marketing and negotiation process led by the Debtors’ investment banker and financial advisor, Lazard Frères & Co. LLC (“Lazard”). In this case, obtaining access to postpetition financing was difficult because all, or substantially all, of the Debtors’ assets are encumbered by valid and perfected first-priority and second-priority liens. In order to avoid a protracted and expensive priming fight, the Debtors would need either to (a) obtain the consent of the Prepetition First Lien Lenders to the priming of their liens or (b) locate a third-party lender willing to provide postpetition financing on an unsecured basis. 5

As part of the relief requested herein, the Debtors are requesting that the Court approve the Backstop Payment (as defined in the Plan), which will be paid on the effective date of the Plan.

Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 7 of 45

Because either option did not provide a viable means to enable the Debtors’ to restructure and maximize value for all stakeholders, in the exercise of sound business judgment, the Debtors negotiated extensively with certain of the First Lien Ad Hoc Group, at arms’-length and in good faith, for access to critical and necessary postpetition financing, including the use of Cash Collateral, in the form of the DIP Financing. The DIP Financing, including the imposition of the priming liens and the Debtors’ use of Cash Collateral, is also being consented to by the Prepetition Second Lien Lenders. Moreover, the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group has reviewed and commented on, and consents to the entry of, the Interim DIP Order and DIP Loan Documents. Thus, the DIP Financing pending before the Court is the Debtors’ best available option and one supported by all of the Debtors’ major constituencies. 8.

For the reasons set forth herein, the Debtors believe that the authority to obtain

DIP Financing, including the use of Cash Collateral, is in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors. Accordingly, the Debtors respectfully request approval of the Motion and authority to enter into obtain the DIP Financing by entering into the DIP Facility and using Cash Collateral, as more fully detailed herein and in the Sorensen Declaration, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable DIP Order granting such relief. Concise Statement Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 4001 and the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas Procedures for Complex Chapter 11 Cases 9.

The provisions of the DIP Loan Documents and the Interim DIP Order were

extensively negotiated and are the most favorable terms that the Debtors were able to obtain under the circumstances. Approval of the DIP Financing will ensure the Debtors are able to maintain their operations, pursue and achieve an expeditious and successful restructuring, and maximize the value of their estates for the benefit of all stakeholders. Accordingly, the Debtors request that the Court enter the DIP Orders approving the DIP Financing.

Statement Regarding Significant Provisions 11.

The Interim DIP Order contains certain of the provisions (the “Significant

Provisions”)8 identified on Exhibit B to the Complex Case Procedures as summarized in the

8

Provisions that the Complex Case Procedures a require a debtor to highlight are those provisions that: (a) grant cross-collateralization protection (other than replacement liens or other adequate protection) to prepetition secured creditors; (b) deem prepetition secured debt to be postpetition debt or that use postpetition loans from a prepetition secured creditor to pay part or all of the secured creditor’s prepetition debt, other than as provided in section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code; (c) bind the bankruptcy estates or any parties in interest with respect to the validity, perfection, or amount of the secured creditor’s prepetition lien or debt or the waiver of claims against the secured creditor; (d) waive or limit the estate’s rights under section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code;

14


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 15 of 45

Attorney Checklist Concerning Motion and Order Pertaining to Use of Cash Collateral attached as Exhibit D hereto. 12.

The Interim DIP Order: (a) binds the estate or any parties in interest with respect

to the validity, perfection, or amount of a secured creditor’s prepetition lien or debt or the waiver of claims against he secured creditor (subject to certain challenge rights); (b) grants the DIP Lenders liens on the proceeds of the Debtors’ claims and causes of action under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code; (c) grants the Existing Letters of Credit post-petition liens under the DIP Facility; and (d) grants administrative adequate protection claims. Notably, the Interim DIP Order does not grant waivers of the right to surcharge the DIP Secured Parties with respect to the DIP Collateral or the Prepetition Secured Parties with respect to the Prepetition Collateral or a waiver of the “equities of the case” exception in section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the foregoing parties, though such waivers are requested upon entry of the Final DIP Order. 13.

In addition, the DIP Credit Agreement imposes certain chapter 11 milestones in

accordance with the RSA. Such provisions were necessary to obtain the Prepetition Secured Parties’ consent to the use of Cash Collateral under the Interim DIP Order and the grant of liens under the DIP Loan Documents. The DIP Loan Documents are a critical piece of the overall restructuring agreement that was reached among the Debtors and the Restructuring Support Parties (as defined in the Plan), and substantially facilitates the consensual and broadly supported restructuring that will be effectuated pursuant to the Plan (if confirmed).

(e) grant prepetition secured creditors liens on the Debtors’ claims and causes of action arising under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code; (f) impose deadlines for the filing of a plan or disclosure statement; and (g) grant an administrative claim.

15


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 16 of 45

14.

In light of the foregoing, the Debtors submit that the Significant Provisions are

appropriate under the facts and circumstances of these Chapter 11 Cases. Accordingly, the Significant Provisions contained in the DIP Orders should be approved. Jurisdiction and Venue 15.

The United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas

(the “Court”) has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334 and the Amended Standing Order of Reference from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, dated May 24, 2012 (the “Amended Standing Order”). The Debtors confirm their consent, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7008 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the “Bankruptcy Rules”), to the entry of a final order by the Court in connection with this motion to the extent that it is later determined that the Court, absent consent of the parties, cannot enter final orders or judgments in connection herewith consistent with Article III of the United States Constitution. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409. 16.

The statutory bases for the relief requested herein are sections 105, 361, 362, 363,

364, 503, and 507 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), Bankruptcy Rules 2002, 4001, 6003, 6004, and 9014, and rules 4002-1 and 9013-1 of the Bankruptcy Local Rules for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Local Rules”), and the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas Procedures for Complex Chapter 11 Cases (the “Complex Case Procedures”). 17.

On the date hereof (the “Petition Date”), each Debtor filed a voluntary petition for

relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors are operating their businesses and managing their properties as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors have concurrently filed a motion requesting procedural 16


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 17 of 45

consolidation and joint administration of these chapter 11 cases pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 1015(b). A detailed description surrounding the facts and circumstances of these chapter 11 cases is set forth in the Samford Declaration. Prepetition Capital Structure 18.

As of the Petition Date, the Debtors outstanding funded debt obligations are in the

aggregate amount of approximately $751.6 million. The primary components of the Debtors’ outstanding funded debt obligations are described in greater detail as follows: I.

The Prepetition First Lien Credit Facility. 19.

As of the Petition Date, AFG, as borrower, each of the guarantors party thereto,

the financial institutions parties thereto from time to time as lenders (the “Prepetition First Lien Lenders”), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Prepetition First Lien Lenders (in such capacity, and including any successor agents, the “Prepetition First Lien Agent” and, together with the Prepetition First Lien Lenders, the “Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties”), are parties to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of December 19, 2012 and amended and restated on January 25, 2013 (as subsequently amended, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified, refinanced, or replaced from time to time prior to the Petition Date, the “Prepetition First Lien Credit Agreement” and, together with the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Prepetition First Lien Credit Agreement), in each case as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the Petition Date, collectively, the “Prepetition First Lien Loan Documents” and the credit facility contemplated therein, the “Prepetition First Lien Credit Facility”). 20.

The Prepetition First Lien Credit Facility provided for term and revolving loans

the outstanding amount of which, as of the Petition Date, was no less than $608,281,765.58 consisting of (i) Revolving Credit Loans (as defined in the Prepetition First Lien Credit 17


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 18 of 45

Agreement) of no less than $89,500,000.00, (ii) Term Loans (as defined in the Prepetition First Lien Credit Agreement) of no less than $518,781,765.58, (iii) the Existing Letters of Credit of no less than $12,392,685.38, plus (iv) any accrued and unpaid interest, costs, expenses, fees (including reimbursable attorney and other advisor fees and expenses), other charges (in each case, to the extent reimbursable under the Prepetition First Lien Loan Documents) and other obligations owing to the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties or affiliates thereof (together with all other obligations and amounts owing by the applicable Debtors under the Prepetition First Lien Loan Documents, collectively, the “Prepetition First Lien Indebtedness”). 21.

The Prepetition First Lien Indebtedness is secured by first-priority Liens granted

to, or for the benefit of, the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties (the “Prepetition First Liens”) on certain of the real property of the Debtors, Cash Collateral (and all deposit and securities accounts related thereto), and on substantially all of the personal property of the Debtors, as further described in the Prepetition First Lien Loan Documents (collectively, the “Prepetition Collateral”). 22.

In accordance with the terms of the Prepetition First Lien Loan Documents, all

amounts payable thereunder are now fully due and payable by the Debtors. The Debtors are each jointly and severally indebted and liable to the Prepetition First Lien Agent and the Prepetition First Lien Lenders for such amounts. As of the Petition Date, the Debtors were indebted and liable for all of the Prepetition First Lien Indebtedness in the aggregate principal amount of not less than $608,281,765.58 under the Prepetition First Lien Credit Agreement plus accrued and unpaid interest, premiums, indemnification obligations, and fees and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties’ attorneys, consultants, accountants, experts, and financial

advisors) and other obligations incurred in connection therewith, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Prepetition First Lien Loan Documents. Each of the Prepetition First Lien Loan Documents is valid, binding, and subject to applicable bankruptcy law, enforceable against the Debtors in accordance with its terms. II.

Prepetition Second Lien Credit Facility. 23.

As of the Petition Date, AFG, as borrower, each of the guarantors party thereto,

the financial institutions parties thereto from time to time as lenders (the “Prepetition Second Lien Lenders”), and Delaware Trust Company, as successor administrative agent and collateral agent for the Prepetition Second Lien Lenders (in such capacity, and including any successor agents, the “Prepetition Second Lien Agent” and, together with the Prepetition Second Lien Lenders, the “Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties” and, together with the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties, the “Prepetition Secured Parties”), are parties to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of December 19, 2012, and amended and restated on January 25, 2013 (as subsequently amended, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified, refinanced, or replaced from time to time prior to the Petition Date, the “Prepetition Second Lien Credit Agreement” and, together with the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Prepetition Second Lien Credit Agreement), in each case as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the Petition Date, collectively, the “Prepetition Second Lien Loan Documents” and, together with the Prepetition First Lien Loan Documents, the “Prepetition Loan Documents”; the credit facility contemplated by the Prepetition Second Lien Loan Documents, the “Prepetition Second Lien Credit Facility”). 24.

The Prepetition Second Lien Credit Facility provided for a term loan the

outstanding amount of which, as of the Petition Date, was no less than $143,314,316.92, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, costs, expenses, fees (including reimbursable attorney and other 19


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 20 of 45

advisor fees and expenses), other charges (in each case, to the extent reimbursable under the Prepetition Second Lien Loan Documents) and other obligations owing to the Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties or affiliates thereof (together with all other obligations and any other amounts owing by the applicable Debtors under the Prepetition Second Lien Loan Documents, collectively, the “Prepetition Second Lien Indebtedness” and, together with the Prepetition First Lien Indebtedness, the “Prepetition Secured Indebtedness”). 25.

The Prepetition Second Lien Indebtedness is secured by second-priority Liens

granted to, or for the benefit of, the Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties (the “Prepetition Second Liens” and, together with the Prepetition First Liens, collectively, the “Prepetition Liens”) on the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral), as further described in the Prepetition Second Lien Loan Documents. 26.

In accordance with the terms of the Prepetition Second Lien Loan Documents, all

amounts payable thereunder are now fully due and payable by the Debtors. The Debtors are each jointly and severally indebted and liable to the Prepetition Second Lien Agent and the Prepetition Second Lien Lenders for such amounts. As of the Petition Date, the Debtors were indebted under the Prepetition Second Lien Indebtedness in the aggregate principal amount of not less than $143,314,316.92 million under the Prepetition Second Lien Credit Agreement plus accrued and unpaid interest, premiums, indemnification obligations, and fees and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of the Prepetition Second Lien Agent’s attorneys, consultants, accountants, experts, and financial advisors) and other obligations incurred in connection therewith, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Prepetition Second Lien Loan Documents. Each of the Prepetition Second Lien

20


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 21 of 45

Loan Documents is valid, binding, and subject to applicable bankruptcy law, enforceable against the Debtors in accordance with its terms. III.

Intercreditor Agreement. 27.

The relative rights of the Prepetition Secured Parties to, and the priority of their

respective security interests in, the Prepetition Collateral are set forth in that certain Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of December 19, 2012, among Holdings, AFG, the Prepetition First Lien Agent, the Prepetition Second Lien Agent, and the other Grantors (as defined therein) party thereto (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement”). 28.

The Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement, subject to the terms and requirements

contained therein, further provides that the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties have the sole authority to approve the debtor-in-possession financing and the use of Cash Collateral. Additionally, the Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement, subject to the terms and requirements contained therein, also prohibits the Prepetition Second Lien Lenders and the Prepetition Second Lien Agent from objecting to the grant of adequate protection in favor of the Prepetition Secured Parties. IV.

Proposed Postpetition Financing. A.

The Debtors’ Need for DIP Financing and Development of the Budget.

29.

As set forth in greater detail below and in the Sorenson Declaration, to continue

operating in the ordinary course and to be able to effectuate an efficient and expeditious restructuring, the Debtors need immediate access to new liquidity.

The Debtors, with the

assistance of their advisors, analyzed their cash needs in order to determine the liquidity levels necessary to maintain the Debtors’ operations during the pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases. In undertaking this analysis, the Debtors and their advisors considered the Debtors’ near-term 21


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 22 of 45

projected financial performance, including demand for the Debtors’ services and the cost of supplying such services.

The Debtors’ management also conferred with key operational

divisions to understand essential business metrics in both the near- and long-term. 30.

As part of the Debtors’ financial review and analysis, the Debtors developed a

eight-week budget, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2 to the Interim DIP Order (the “Budget”). The Budget incorporates a number of factors and reasonable assumptions, including the effect of the chapter 11 filing on the Debtors’ operations, material cash disbursements, required vendor/supplier payments, cash flows from the Debtors’ ongoing operations, and the cost of necessary goods and materials. Furthermore, the Budget includes all of the expenditures for which the Debtors seek authority to pay pursuant to various “first day” pleadings, if approved by the Court. 31.

With the consent of the Prepetition Secured Parties, the Debtors will use Cash

Collateral to fund working capital, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes. Cash Collateral alone, however, will be insufficient to fund the costs associated with the Debtors’ restructuring.

Therefore, the Debtors, with the assistance of their advisors, have

determined that the additional postpetition financing being provided by the DIP Facility is necessary to provide new money working capital for the Debtors’ businesses, fund adequate protection payments, and satisfy the costs associated with consummating the Plan and completing the Debtors’ restructuring.

As such, the DIP Facility is fundamental to the

preservation and maintenance of the Debtors’ going-concern value during these Chapter 11 Cases and critical for the Debtors’ successful reorganization. 32.

Absent an ability to demonstrate that the Debtors have the means available to

operate in the ordinary course and procure goods and services that are vital to ongoing business

22


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 23 of 45

operations, customers may seek alternatives and vendors and suppliers may refuse to do business with the Debtors. Moreover, absent access to capital under the DIP Financing, the Debtors may not have sufficient liquidity to continue their business operations in the ordinary course, which would be materially detrimental to the Debtors’ customers, creditors, employees, and other parties in interest, jeopardizing the success of the Debtors’ reorganization. 33.

Therefore, the Debtors have an immediate need to access the DIP Financing on an

interim basis and throughout the pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases, and absent doing so would result in immediate and irreparable harm. B.

The Debtors’ Efforts to Obtain Postpetition Financing.

34.

In November 2016, the Debtors engaged Lazard as their investment banker to

assist the Debtors with evaluating their financing needs and strategic alternatives. As described more fully in the Sorensen Declaration, prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors and their advisors surveyed various sources of potential debtor-in-possession financing to fund the Debtors’ ongoing business operations and the chapter 11 process. In consultation with the Debtors and their other advisors, Lazard developed a list of the most likely parties who would be willing to provide debtor-in-possession financing in order to create a competitive environment and establish a process to most efficiently raise the necessary capital on the best terms available in the market. Because all or substantially all of the Debtors’ assets are encumbered and subject to validly perfected first- and second-priority liens, Lazard’s strategy to obtain the best source of financing from the market was reflective of the practical realities of the Debtors’ existing capital structure. In other words, Lazard evaluated (a) engaging in a priming fight with the Prepetition Secured Parties’ whose liens would be primed or otherwise facing disputes surrounding the Debtors’ ability to adequately protect the Prepetition Secured Parties’ interest in the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral), (b) obtaining the consent of the party holding the secured 23


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 24 of 45

interests to have their liens primed, or (c) locating a third-party postpetition lender willing to provide financing on an unsecured basis. 35.

As a result of these practicalities, the Debtors’ debtor-in-possession financing

marketing process involved contacting unrelated third parties, as well as approaching the Ad Hoc First Lien Group, the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group and the Sponsor Entities (as defined in the Plan). At the outset of this process, the Ad Hoc First Lien Group expressed interest in providing potential debtor-in-possession financing in connection with a comprehensive restructuring. Accordingly, the Debtors and their advisors engaged in extensive negotiations with the Ad Hoc First Lien Group, regarding the terms of potential debtor-in-possession financing. Notably, during these negotiations the Ad Hoc First Lien Group expressed that it was unwilling to consent to priming of the Prepetition First Liens by an alternative lender. 36.

Nevertheless, as part of their overall restructuring negotiations with the Debtors

continued to solicit interest in potential financing from the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group, the Consenting Sponsor Lenders (as defined in the Plan), and unrelated third-parties. Ultimately, Lazard was unable to garner interest from any unrelated third party or actionable interest from the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group.

The Consenting Sponsor Lenders, in their capacity as

Prepetition Second Lien Lenders, engaged in preliminary discussions regarding the potential of the Consenting Sponsor Lenders providing financing that would be secured by certain of the Debtors’ non-debtor foreign subsidiaries’ assets (the “Sponsor DIP Discussions”). However, the Debtors, in consultation with their advisors, determined that the new liquidity contemplated during the Sponsor DIP Discussions would be insufficient to fund the Debtors’ operations and the administrative costs of the Chapter 11 Cases.

Additionally, any debtor-in-possession

financing provided by the Consenting Sponsor Lenders consistent with the Sponsor DIP

24


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 25 of 45

Discussions would likely result in costly litigation at the outset of the Chapter 11 Cases regarding the Debtors’ use of Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) and did not provide a clear path toward emergence from chapter 11. 37.

As such, the Debtors and their advisors continued to engage with the Ad Hoc First

Lien Group and its advisors in good faith, arms’-length negotiations regarding the terms of the DIP Financing. In doing so, the Debtors were able to rely on the existing Prepetition Loan Documents as precedent as well as the Ad Hoc First Lien Group’s familiarity with the Debtors’ businesses and capital structure, thereby avoiding significant legal fees associated with negotiating, memorializing, and reviewing new financing documents from any alternative thirdparty lender. Additionally, the proposed DIP Financing allows the Debtors to avoid the need to engage in a costly and time-consuming priming fight at the outset of these Chapter 11 Cases. Finally, the DIP Financing serves as an important component of the Debtors’ overall restructuring efforts because it provides the Debtors with a clear source of financing, both during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases and following the effective date of the Plan, and also provides the stability and certainty that the Debtors can emerge from these Chapter 11 Cases in a timely and expeditious manner. 38.

Accordingly, the Debtors believe that the DIP Financing pending approval before

the Court is the Debtors’ best source of financing available in these cases and no other financing is available on equal or better terms. C.

The DIP Facility.

39.

As described above and in the Sorensen Declaration, the Debtors and the DIP

Lenders engaged in extensive, good faith, and arm’s-length negotiations with respect to the terms and conditions of the proposed DIP Financing as memorialized in the DIP Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the DIP Credit Agreement, the Debtors are permitted to draw up to $25 million upon 25


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 26 of 45

entry of the Interim DIP Order, and, upon entry of the Final DIP Order, make additional draws in the aggregate not to exceed $70 million (inclusive of the initial draw). Separately, the DIP Credit Agreement provides for treatment of letters of credit in two key respects: first, the Debtors may request up to an incremental $2.5 million of New Letters of Credit (which obligations are required to be cash collateralized), and second, the Existing Letters of Credit will be deemed issued under the DIP Facility (which obligations are not required to be collateralized). 40.

The proceeds of the DIP Facility, the availability under the New Letters of Credit

and the Existing Letters of Credit provide the Debtors with the much needed liquidity to fund their operations and meet their administrative obligations during these Chapter 11 Cases, and also emerge on a timely basis as a reorganized business enterprise. D. 41.

Use of Cash Collateral. The DIP Financing also provides the Debtors with immediate access to the use of

the Cash Collateral of the Prepetition Secured Parties on a consensual basis, subject to the terms and conditions of the DIP Credit Agreement and the DIP Orders. Coupled with the liquidity provided under the DIP Facility, immediate access to the Cash Collateral will (a) ensure that the Debtors have sufficient working capital to, among other things, pay their employees, vendors, landlords, and service providers, (b) enable the Debtors to honor their prepetition obligations under and in accordance with the proposed “first-day� relief if approved by the Court, and (c) satisfy the administrative expenses of these Chapter 11 Cases. By providing the Debtors with the immediate ability to use Cash Collateral in whichever of the Debtors’ accounts it is currently held, the DIP Financing also ensures that the Debtors avoid unnecessary business disruptions that would otherwise be costly and potentially damaging to the business.

E.

Forms of Adequate Protection.

42.

After extensive arms’ length, and good faith negotiations, the Prepetition Secured

Parties have agreed to consent to the use of their Prepetition Collateral, including Cash Collateral, subject to the provision by the Debtors of adequate protection and the terms of the RSA. Among other things, the adequate protection contemplated by the DIP Financing is designed to protect the Prepetition Secured Parties’ interests in the Debtors’ property from any diminution in value caused by the Debtors’ use of the Prepetition Collateral, including Cash Collateral, during the pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases. Specifically, the Debtors have agreed to provide the following forms of adequate protection (collectively, the “Forms of Adequate Protection”):

43.

Adequate Protection Liens: The Debtors will grant the Prepetition First Lien Agent and Prepetition Second Lien Agent, respectively, for the benefit of itself and the Prepetition Secured Parties, a security interest in and lien on all of the Prepetition Collateral, subordinate only to the CarveOut, any existing valid and perfected liens senior to the liens of the Prepetition Secured Parties and the DIP Liens.

Adequate Protection Claims: Subject to the Carve-Out and the claims of the DIP Lenders, the Prepetition First Lien Agent and the Prepetition Second Lien Agent, respectively, on behalf of itself and the Prepetition Secured Parties, will be granted an adequate protection super-priority claim against the Debtors as provided in sections 503(b) and 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with priority in payment over any and all administrative expenses and all other claims asserted against the Debtors.

Adequate Protection Payments: The Debtors will pay certain reasonable fees and expenses of the Prepetition Secured Parties. Furthermore, the Debtors will pay the Prepetition First Lien Agent additional adequate protection payments in the amount equal to all accrued but unpaid interest under the Prepetition First Lien Credit Agreement.

The Forms of Adequate Protection are conferred separately to each of the

(a) Prepetition First Lien Lenders and the Prepetition First Lien Agent and (b) Prepetition Second Lien Lenders and the Prepetition Second Lien Agent, and the priority of each of the Forms of

27

Adequate Protection mirrors the rights of each of these parties’ respective rights in the Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement. Basis for Relief I.

The DIP Financing Should be Approved Pursuant to Section 364(c) of the Bankruptcy Code. 44.

The Debtors propose to obtain the DIP Financing by providing security interests

and liens pursuant to section 364(c) of the Bankruptcy Code. The statutory requirement for obtaining postpetition credit under section 364(c) is a finding, made after notice and hearing, that a debtor is “unable to obtain unsecured credit allowable under Section 503(b)(1) of the [the Bankruptcy Code].” 11 U.S.C. § 364(c). See In re Crouse Grp. Inc., 71 B.R. 544, 549 (Bankr. E.D. Pa. 1987) (holding that secured credit under section 364(c)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code is authorized, after notice and hearing, upon showing that unsecured credit cannot be obtained). 45.

Courts generally have set forth a three-part test to determine whether a debtor

may obtain financing under section 364(c) of the Bankruptcy Code. Specifically, courts consider whether: a.

the debtor is unable to obtain unsecured credit under section 364(b) (i.e., by allowing a lender only an administrative claim);

b.

the credit transaction is necessary to preserve estate assets; and

c.

the terms of the transaction are fair, reasonable, and adequate under the circumstances of the debtor-borrower and the proposed lender.

See, e.g., In re Ames Dep’t Stores, Inc., 115 B.R. 34, 37–39 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1990); Norris Square Civic Ass’n v. St. Mary Hosp. (In re St. Mary Hosp.), 86 B.R. 393, 401–02 (Bankr. E.D. Pa. 1988); Crouse, 71 B.R. at 549; In re McKenzie Energy Corp., 228 B.R. 854, 874 (S.D. Tex. 1998).

Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 29 of 45

46.

As described in greater detail below and in the Sorensen Declaration, the Debtors,

together with their advisors, sought and marketed alternative sources of postpetition financing to determine whether the Debtors could obtain debtor-in-possession financing solely by providing solely an unsecured, administrative expense priority claim. No parties were willing to provide financing on such basis. Furthermore, the Debtors do not believe they can adequately protect, preserve, and maximize the value of their estates without access to postpetition financing. Thus, the Debtors believe that the terms of the DIP Financing are fair, reasonable and adequate under the circumstances. 47.

Where, as here, a debtor is unable to obtain unsecured credit, section 364(c)(1) of

the Bankruptcy Code provides that the debtor may obtain credit secured by an administrative expense claim having priority “over any or all administrative expenses of the kind specified in section 503(b) or 507(b) of [the Bankruptcy Code].” 11 U.S.C. § 364(c)(1). As described above and in the Sorensen Declaration, the Debtors are unable to obtain credit on an unsecured basis. Therefore, the Court should approve the super-priority administrative expense claims in the form of the DIP Super-Priority Claims in favor of the DIP Lenders as fair and appropriate under the circumstances. II.

The DIP Financing Should be Approved Pursuant to Section 364(d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. A.

Cause Exists to Authorize Financing under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code.

48.

In addition to obtaining financing under section 364(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, a

debtor may obtain postpetition credit secured by a lien that is senior or equal in priority to existing liens on encumbered property without the consent of the existing lienholders if the debtor cannot otherwise obtain such credit and the interests of existing lienholders are adequately protected. See 11 U.S.C. § 364(d)(1). Consent by the secured creditors subject to priming, 29


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 30 of 45

however, obviates the need to show adequate protection. See, e.g., Anchor Savs. Bank FSB v. Sky Vallev, Inc., 99 B.R. 117, 122 (N.D. Ga. 1989) (“[B]y tacitly consenting to the super-priority lien, those creditors relieved the debtor of having to demonstrate that they were adequately protected”). Accordingly, the Debtors may incur “priming” liens under the DIP Financing if the Debtors are unable to obtain unsecured or junior secured credit and either (a) the “primed” party has consented or (b) such “primed” party’s interests in collateral are adequately protected. 49.

Here, the “primed” parties have provided the requisite consent because the

Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties have consented to the proposed DIP Financing and the priming liens granted thereunder. In addition, given the applicable provisions of the Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement with respect to collateral on which the Prepetition First Lien Lenders hold a secured lien, the Debtors respectfully submit that the Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties are deemed to have consented to the anticipated DIP Liens granted on such collateral. See Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement, § 6.01. Moreover, as part of the global consensual restructuring, the Prepetition Second Lien Parties have affirmatively consented to the priming of their liens. B.

The Debtors are Unable to Obtain Unsecured or Junior Secured Credit.

50.

To show that credit is not obtainable on an unsecured basis, the Debtors need only

demonstrate “by a good faith effort that credit was not available” without the protections afforded to potential lenders by subsections 364(c) or (d) of the Bankruptcy Code. Bray v. Shenandoah Fed. Savs. & Loan Ass’n (In re Snowshoe Co., Inc.), 789 F.2d 1085, 1088 (4th Cir. 1986); see also Anchor Savings, 99 B.R. at 120 n.4 (noting that the debtor satisfied the requirement of section 364(d) by “approach[ing] all lenders reasonably likely to be willing to make a junior or unsecured loan”); Ames, 115 B.R. at 37–40 (holding that the debtor must show that it made a reasonable effort to seek other sources of financing under subsections 364(a) and 30


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 31 of 45

(b) of the Bankruptcy Code). Moreover, the Bankruptcy Code and courts do not require debtors to “seek credit from every possible lender before concluding that such credit is unavailable.” Snowshoe, 789 F.2d at 1088; see also In re Sky Valley, Inc., 100 B.R. 107, 113 (Bankr. N.D. Ga. 1988) (finding that “it would be unrealistic and unnecessary to require [the debtor] to conduct such an exhaustive search for financing” where the debtor “suffers some financial stress and has little or no unencumbered property”), aff’d sub nom. Anchor Savings, 99 B.R. at 117; In Reading Tube Indus., 72 B.R. 329, 332 (Bankr. E.D. Pa. 1987) (“Given the ‘time is of the essence’ nature of this type of financing, we would not require this or any debtor to contact a seemingly infinite number of possible lenders.”); but see Crouse Group, 71 B.R. at 550 (noting the “relative ease” of establishing the unavailability of unsecured credit, but denying the motion where the debtor only approached one potential lender, and did not contact two large prepetition lenders). 51.

As noted above and as described in greater detail in the Sorenson Declaration,

after a thorough and competitive marketing process, the Debtors believe that there are no viable alternative sources of financing reasonably available and no alternative sources of financing available on the same or better terms than those being provided by the DIP Financing — a financing package that provides for a comprehensive and expeditious path to emerge from Chapter 11. 52.

No party that Lazard communicated with as part of the marketing process, and no

other party that Lazard was aware of, was interested in providing, or willing to provide, postpetition financing to the Debtors on an unsecured basis. Indeed, no party was willing to provide postpetition financing in the amount needed by the Debtors on anything other than a “priming” basis with respect to substantially all of the Debtors’ assets, which “priming” liens

31


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 32 of 45

likely would not have been consented to by the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties and would have subjected to the Debtors’ to a protracted and expensive priming dispute. While in the Debtors’ view the financing contemplated during the Sponsor DIP Discussions did not necessarily provide for “priming” of the Prepetition Liens, the potential funding under such financing did not provide sufficient liquidity for the Debtors to effectuate a restructuring, and likely would have caused costly litigation at the outset of the Chapter 11 Cases regarding the Debtors’ use of the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) and disputes regarding the form and nature of adequate protection provided to the Prepetition Secured Parties. As such, the DIP Financing before the Court is the only adequate financing available to the Debtors in these cases. 53.

Thus, providing the DIP Secured Parties with super-priority administrative

expense claims and priming liens is reasonable and appropriate here as it will allow the Debtors to obtain on a consensual basis the critical financing they need to fund their operations and appropriately administer these Chapter 11 Cases. Therefore, the Debtors have satisfied the requirements of section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code because alternative credit on more favorable terms than the DIP Financing are not available to the Debtors. III.

The Forms of Adequate Protection With Respect to Cash Collateral Are Fair and Appropriate. 54.

Section 363(e) of the Bankruptcy Code provides for adequate protection of

interests in property when a debtor uses Cash Collateral. Further, section 362(d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code provides for adequate protection of interests in property due to the imposition of the automatic stay. See In re Cont’l Airlines, 91 F.3d 553, 556 (3d Cir. 1996) (en banc). While section 361 of the Bankruptcy Code provides examples of forms of adequate protection, such as granting replacement liens and administrative claims, courts decide what constitutes

32


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 33 of 45

sufficient adequate protection on a case-by-case basis. See, e.g., In re Braniff Airways, Inc., 783 F.2d 1283, 1286 (5th Cir. 1986) (A determination of adequate protection is decided on a case-bycase basis, involving a consideration of the “nature of the creditor’s interest in the property, the potential harm to the creditor as a result of the property’s decline in value and the method of protection.”); In re Mosello, 195 B.R. 277, 289 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1996) (“The determination of adequate protection is a fact-specific inquiry . . . left to the vagaries of each case”); In re Realty Sw. Assocs., 140 B.R. 360 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1992); In re Beker Indus. Corp., 58 B.R. 725, 736 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1986) (the application of adequate protection “is left to the vagaries of each case, but its focus is protection of the secured creditor from diminution in the value of its collateral during the reorganization process”) (citation omitted); In re Satcon Tech. Corp., No. 12-12869 (KG), 2012 WL 6091160, at *6 (Bankr. D. Del. Dec. 7, 2012); see also In re Dynaco Corp., 162 B.R. 389, 394 (Bankr. D.N.H. 1993) (citing 2 Collier on Bankruptcy ¶ 361.01[1] at 361–66 (15th ed. 1993) (explaining that adequate protection can take many forms and “must be determined based upon equitable considerations arising from the particular facts of each proceeding” (citations omitted)). The purpose of adequate protection is to ensure that a secured party’s economic position is not worsened because of the filing of a bankruptcy case. In re DeSardi, 340 B.R. 790, 804 (Bankr. S.D. Tex. 2006). 55.

As described above, the Forms of Adequate Protection set forth in the Interim DIP

Order were specifically negotiated between the Debtors and the Prepetition Secured Parties to obtain such parties’ consent to the imposition of the DIP Financing and the use of their Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral). The Debtors believe the Forms of Adequate Protection are sufficient to protect the Prepetition Secured Parties from any diminution in value

33


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 34 of 45

of their collateral during the pendency of these case, and thus, are appropriate under the circumstances. 56.

The Forms of Adequate Protection here are consistent with adequate protection

packages approved by courts in this jurisdiction. See, e.g., In re Forbes Energy Servs. Ltd., No. 17-20023 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Jan. 25, 2017) (granting superpriority administrative claims, adequate protection replacement liens, and fees and expenses on an interim basis to first lien secured creditors); In re Stone Energy Corp., No. 16-36390 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Dec. 20, 2016) (same); In re Light Tower Rentals, Inc., No. 16-34284 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Sept. 1, 2016) (same); In re CJ Holding Co., No. 16-33590 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. July 21, 2016) (same); In re Linn Energy, LLC, No. 16-60040 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. May 13, 2016) (same). IV.

The Use of Cash Collateral Is Warranted and Should Be Approved. 57.

The Debtors’ use of property of their estates, including the Cash Collateral, is

governed by section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. In particular, section 363(c) of the Bankruptcy Code provides, in relevant part: If the business of the debtor is authorized to be operated under section . . . 1108 . . . of this title and unless the court orders otherwise, the [debtor] may enter into transactions, including the sale or lease of property of the estate, in the ordinary course of business, without notice or a hearing, and may use property of the estate in the ordinary course of business without notice or a hearing. 11 U.S.C. § 363(c)(1). Pursuant to section 363(c)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, however, a debtor may not use cash collateral unless “(A) each entity that has an interest in such cash collateral consents; or (B) the court, after notice and a hearing, authorizes such use, sale, or lease in accordance with the provisions of this section.” 11 U.S.C. § 363(c)(2). 58.

It is essential to the Debtors’ successful reorganization and maximizing the going

concern value of their businesses that they have sufficient funds to operate in the ordinary 34


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 35 of 45

course. Absent the use of Cash Collateral, the Debtors will not have sufficient working capital to (a) make payments to employees, vendors, or suppliers, (b) satisfy ordinary operating costs, and (c) fund the administrative costs of these Chapter 11 Cases.9 Furthermore, as discussed above, and in accordance with section 363(c)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Prepetition Secured Parties have consented to the Debtors’ use of Cash Collateral, subject to the provisions of the Forms of Adequate Protection on the terms and conditions set forth in the Interim DIP Order. Accordingly, the Debtors submit that the use of Cash Collateral on the terms and conditions set forth in the DIP Orders is in the best interests of the Debtors’ estates and should be approved. V.

The Scope of the Carve-Out Is Appropriate. 59.

In connection with providing the DIP Financing, the DIP Lenders and the

Prepetition Secured Parties have agreed that certain of their liens and claims would be subject to a carve-out. Without the Carve-Out, the Debtors and other parties in interest may be deprived of certain rights and powers because the services for which professionals may be paid in the Chapter 11 Cases would be restricted. See In re Ames Dep’t Stores, Inc., 115 B.R. 34, 40 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1990) (observing that courts insist on carve-outs for professionals representing parties in interest because “[a]bsent such protection, the collective rights and expectations of all parties-in-interest are sorely prejudiced”). The Carve-Out does not directly or indirectly deprive the Debtors’ estates or other parties in interest of possible rights and powers. Additionally, the Carve-Out protects against administrative insolvency during the course of the these Chapter 11 Cases by ensuring that assets for the payment of the Clerk of the Court, U.S. Trustee fees, and professional fees of the Debtors and any official committee appointed under section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code in these Chapter 11 Cases. 9

For the avoidance of doubt, the Debtors also required access to new money capital in the form of the DIP Facility in addition to the use of Cash Collateral to fund their operations during the pendency of these cases.

35


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 36 of 45

60.

The Carve-Out here is consistent with carve-out provisions approved by courts in

this jurisdiction. See, e.g., In re Vanguard Natural Resources, LLC, No. 17-30560 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Feb. 2, 2017); In re CJ Holding Co., No. 16-33590 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Sept. 25, 2016); In re Southcross Holdings LP, No 16-20111 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Apr. 11, 2016); In re ATP Oil & Gas Corporation, No. 12-31687 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Sept. 20, 2012). VI.

The Court Should Authorize the Debtors to Make the DIP Payments and Approve the Backstop Payment. 61.

In connection with negotiating the DIP Financing, the Debtors agreed, subject to

Court approval, to pay certain fees, expenses and other payments arising under the DIP Loan Documents and the DIP Orders (the “DIP Payments�), as applicable, as well as the Backstop Payment for the commitment by the Ad Hoc First Lien Group to backstop the Exit Term Loan Facility, the funds for which are being committed and made available to the Debtors through the DIP Facility. Specifically, the Debtors will pay certain upfront commitment payments in favor of the DIP Lenders, an administrative agent fee in favor of the DIP Agent, periodic payments for any unused commitments, and certain issuance fees in favor of the L/C Issuers in connection with the New Letters of Credit and the Existing Letters of Credit.

Notably, the upfront

commitment payments are to be paid pro rata based on the amounts approved under each of the Interim DIP Order and Final DIP Order. 62.

The amounts the Debtors have agreed to pay and other obligations under the DIP

Loan Documents and proposed DIP Orders, including the DIP Payments and the Backstop Payment, are fair and reasonable and represent the most favorable terms to the Debtors on which the DIP Lenders and L/C Issuers would agree to make available the DIP Financing. The Debtors considered the amounts described above when determining in their sound business judgment that

36


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 37 of 45

the DIP Financing constituted the best terms on which the Debtors could obtain the postpetition financing necessary to continue their operations and pursue their prepackaged reorganization. 63.

Courts routinely authorize debtors to pay amounts similar to those the Debtors are

proposing to pay here, where the associated financing is, in the debtor’s business judgment, beneficial to the debtors’ estates. See, e.g., In re Southcross Holdings LP, No 16-20111 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Apr. 11, 2016) (approving 2.0% funding fee); In re CJ Holding Co., No. 1633590 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Sept. 25, 2016) (approving 5.0% unused commitment fee); In re InSight Health Servs. Holdings Corp., No. 10-16564 (AJG) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Jan. 4, 2011) (approving 2.0% DIP closing fee); In re NR Liquidation III Co. (f/k/a Neff Corp.), No. 10-12610 (SCC) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. June 30, 2010) (approving 3.1% DIP and exit facility fee); In re Lear Corp., No. 09-14326 (ALG) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Aug. 4, 2009) (approving 5.0% upfront fee and a 1.0% exit/conversion fee); In re Gen. Growth Props., Inc., No. 09-11977 (ALG) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. May 14, 2009) (approving 3.75% exit fee); In re Aleris Int’l Inc., No. 09-10478 (BLS) (Bankr. D. Del. Mar. 18, 2009) (approving 3.5% exit fee and 3.5% front-end net adjustment against each lender’s initial commitment); In re Tronox Inc., No. 09-10156 (ALG) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Jan. 13, 2009) (approving an up-front 3% facility fee); In re Lyondell Chem. Co., No. 09-10023 (REG) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Jan. 8, 2009) (approving exit fee of 3%); In re Dura Auto. Sys., Inc., No. 06-11202 (KJC) (Bankr. D. Del. Jan. 28, 2008) (approving a 2.5% fees related to refinancing and extending a postpetition financing facility); In re DJK Residential, Inc., No. 0810375 (JMP) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Feb. 29, 2008) (approving 3% fee in connection with postpetition financing).

37


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 38 of 45

64.

Thus, approval of the payment of these amounts as part of the DIP Financing are

fair, reasonable and is in the best interests of the Debtors’ estates, creditors, and other parties in interest. VII.

The DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties Are Entitled to the Good Faith Provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. 65.

Section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code protects a good faith lender’s right to

collect on loans extended to a debtor, and its right in any lien securing those loans, even if the authority of the debtor to obtain such loans or grant such liens is later reversed or modified on appeal. Section 364(e) provides that: The reversal or modification on appeal of an authorization under this section [364 of the Bankruptcy Code] to obtain credit or incur debt, or of a grant under this section of a priority or a lien, does not affect the validity of any debt so incurred, or any priority or lien so granted, to an entity that extended such credit in good faith, whether or not such entity knew of the pendency of the appeal, unless such authorization and the incurring of such debt, or the granting of such priority or lien, were stayed pending appeal. 11 U.S.C. § 364(e). 66.

In addition, section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that: The reversal or modification on appeal of an authorization under subsection (b) or (c) of this section of a sale or lease of property does not affect the validity of a sale or lease under such authorization to an entity that purchased or leased such property in good faith, whether or not such entity knew of the pendency of the appeal, unless such authorization and such sale or lease were stayed pending appeal.

11 U.S.C. § 363(m). 67.

As explained above, in the Sorensen Declaration, and in the Samford Declaration,

the DIP Financing is the result of the Debtors’ reasonable and informed determination that the DIP Secured Parties offered the most favorable terms on which postpetition financing was available for these Chapter 11 Cases. Further, the DIP Financing is the result of extensive arm’s38


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 39 of 45

length, good faith negotiations between the Debtors, on one hand, and the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties, on the other hand. The terms and conditions of the DIP Financing, including the Prepetition Secured Parties’ consent to use their Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) are fair and reasonable.

Moreover, the proceeds of the DIP

Financing and Cash Collateral will be used only for purposes that are permissible under the Bankruptcy Code. Further, no consideration is being provided to any party to the DIP Loan Documents other than as described herein. 68.

Accordingly, the Court should find that the DIP Secured Parties and Prepetition

Secured Parties are entitled to the “good faith” protections of sections 363(m) and 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and are entitled to all of the protections afforded thereby. VIII.

The Automatic Stay Should Be Modified on a Limited Basis. 69.

The relief requested herein contemplates a modification of the automatic stay to

permit the Debtors to grant the security interests and liens described above to the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties, and to perform such acts as may be requested to assure the perfection and priority of such security interests and liens. Paragraph 14 of the Interim DIP Order further provides that the automatic stay shall be vacated and modified to the extent necessary to permit the DIP Secured Parties to exercise all rights and remedies provided for in the DIP Loan Documents and the Interim DIP Order. 70.

Stay modifications of this kind are ordinary and standard features of postpetition

financing arrangements and, in the Debtors’ business judgment, are reasonable and fair under the circumstances of these Chapter 11 Cases. See, e.g., In re Goodman Networks, Inc., No. 1731575 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Mar. 14, 2017) (modifying automatic stay as necessary to effectuate the terms of the order); In re Forbes Energy Servs. Ltd., No. 17-20023 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Jan. 25, 2017) (same); In re Stone Energy Corp., No. 16-36390 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. 39


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 40 of 45

Dec. 20, 2016) (same); In re Light Tower Rentals, Inc., No. 16-34284 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Sept. 1, 2016) (same); In re CJ Holding Co., No. 16-33590 (DRJ) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Jul. 21, 2016) (same); In re Southcross Holdings LP, No. 16-20111 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Apr. 11, 2016) (same); In re Autoseis, Inc., No. 14-20130 (RSS) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Mar. 27, 2014) (same); In re ATP Oil & Gas Corp., No. 12-36187 (MI) (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Aug. 17, 2012) (same). IX.

Failure to Obtain Immediate Access to the DIP Financing on an Interim Basis, Including the Use of Cash Collateral, Would Cause Immediate and Irreparable Harm. 71.

Bankruptcy Rules 4001(b) and 4001(c) provide that a final hearing on a motion to

obtain credit pursuant to section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or to use Cash Collateral pursuant to section 363 may not be commenced earlier than 14 days after the service of such motion. Upon request, however, the Court is empowered to conduct a preliminary expedited hearing on the motion and authorize the obtaining of credit and use of Cash Collateral to the extent necessary to avoid immediate and irreparable harm to a debtor’s estate. See Bankruptcy Rules 4001(b)(2) and 4001(c)(2). Furthermore, section 363(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code authorizes the court to conduct a preliminary hearing and to authorize the use of Cash Collateral “if there is a reasonable likelihood that the [debtor] will prevail at the final hearing under [section 363(e) of the Bankruptcy Code].” 11 U.S.C. § 363(c)(3). 72.

Failure to obtain access to the DIP Financing and access to Cash Collateral would

result in immediate and irreparable harm to the Debtors and their stakeholders, and diminish the value of the Debtors’ estates. Without the approval of the DIP Financing and the use of Cash Collateral, the Debtors likely would be unable to continue to operate in the ordinary course and preserve and maximize the value of their assets. In addition, absent sufficient working capital to fund these cases, the Debtors would not be able to provide a clear, strong message to the 40


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 41 of 45

Debtors’ customers, vendors, employees, and contract counterparties that operations are appropriately funded and that the bankruptcy filing will not impact the Debtors’ businesses operationally.

Finally, a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the Plan and of the

consensual restructuring contemplated thereby requires entry and approval of the DIP Financing and access to Cash Collateral. As such, the DIP Financing is a critical piece to the Debtors’ overall restructuring efforts. 73.

Accordingly, pursuant to section 363(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code and

Bankruptcy Rule 4001(b) the Debtors request that the Court conduct an expedited hearing on this motion, and enter the Interim DIP Order authorizing the Debtors to obtain credit under the DIP Financing, including the use Cash Collateral, all on an interim basis, pending approval on a final basis after the scheduling of the Final Hearing. Emergency Consideration 74.

In accordance with Bankruptcy Local Rule 9013-1(i), the Debtors respectfully

request emergency consideration of this Motion pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 6003, which empowers a court to grant relief within the first 21 days after the commencement of a chapter 11 case “to the extent that relief is necessary to avoid immediate and irreparable harm.” As set forth in this Motion, the Debtors believe an immediate and orderly transition into chapter 11 is critical to the viability of their operations and that any delay in granting the relief requested could hinder the Debtors’ operations and cause irreparable harm. Furthermore, the failure to receive the requested relief during the first 21 days of these Chapter 11 Cases would severely disrupt the Debtors’ operations at this critical juncture. Accordingly, the Debtors submit that they have satisfied the “immediate and irreparable harm” standard of Bankruptcy Rule 6003 and, therefore, respectfully request that the Court approve the relief requested in this Motion on an emergency basis. 41


Case 17-32660 Document 19 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 42 of 45

Request for a Final Hearing 75.

Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 4001(b)(2) and 4001(c)(2), the Debtors request that

the Court set a date, which is no sooner than 15 days after the date of this Motion and no later than 25 days after the entry of the Interim DIP Order, to hold a hearing to consider entry of the Final DIP Order and the permanent approval of the relief requested in this Motion.10 The Debtors propose that the Court schedule the Final Hearing for May 24, 2017—i.e., the same date and time the Debtors have requested that the Court schedule the hearing to consider the adequacy of the Disclosure Statement and confirmation of the Plan.11 76.

The Debtors also request authority to serve a copy of the signed Interim DIP

Order, which fixes the time and date for the filing of objections, if any, to entry of the Final DIP Order and the scheduling of the Final Hearing, by first class mail upon the notice parties listed below, and further request that the Court deem service thereof sufficient notice of the Final Hearing sufficient under Bankruptcy Rule 4001(c)(2). Waiver of Bankruptcy Rule 6004(a) and 6004(h) 77.

To implement the foregoing successfully, the Debtors seek a waiver of the notice

requirements under Bankruptcy Rule 6004(a) and the 14-day stay of an order authorizing the use, sale, or lease of property under Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h).

10

The DIP Credit Agreement requires that the Final DIP Order be entered no later than 35 days after the Petition Date. See DIP Credit Agmt., § 6.19.

See Debtors’ Emergency Motion for Entry of an Order (I) Scheduling a Combined Disclosure Statement Approval and Plan Confirmation Hearing, (II) Establishing a Plan and Disclosure Statement Objection Deadline and Related Procedures, (III) Approving the Solicitation Procedures, (IV) Approving the Confirmation Hearing Notice, (V) Directing that a Meeting of Creditors Not Be Convened, and (VI) Shortening the Notice Requirements Related Thereto, filed contemporaneously herewith.

I submit this declaration (this ”Declaration”) in support of the Debtors’ Motion

for Interim and Final Orders (I) Authorizing the Debtors (A) to Obtain Postpetition Financing and (B) to Utilize Cash Collateral, (II) Granting Adequate Protection to Prepetition Secured Parties, (III) Modifying the Automatic Stay, (IV) Scheduling a Final Hearing, and (V) Granting Related Relief (the ”DIP Motion”).2 3.

Except as otherwise indicated, all facts set forth in this Declaration are based on

(a) my personal knowledge of the Debtors’ operations and finances gleaned during the course of Lazard’s engagement with the Debtors, (b) my discussions with the Debtors’ senior management, other members of the Lazard team and the Debtors’ restructuring advisor, Alvarez & Marsal North America LLC (“A&M”), (c) my review of relevant documents, or (d) my opinion based upon experience. I am authorized to submit this Declaration. If called upon to testify, I could and would competently testify to the facts set forth herein. 4.

I have been employed in the field of corporate finance for approximately 10 years,

during which I have been involved in a broad range of in- and out-of court restructuring transactions on both a principal and advisory basis. Prior to joining Lazard in 2013, I was an investment professional at Oaktree Capital Management, where I focused on middle-market distressed investments. Earlier in my career, I held analyst positions in investment banking and corporate strategy at Lazard and Morgan Stanley, respectively.

I graduated with B.A. in

economics from Harvard College (cum laude). 5.

Lazard is registered as a broker-dealer with the United States Securities and

Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Together with its predecessors and affiliates, Lazard has been advising clients around the world for over 150 years.

2

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the DIP Motion.

Case 17-32660 Document 19-1 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 4 of 11

Lazard and its professionals have considerable expertise and experience in providing investment banking and financial advisory services to financially distressed companies and to creditors, equity holders and other constituencies in reorganization proceedings and complex financial restructurings, both in- and out-of court. 6.

Since Lazard’s engagement in November 2016, Lazard has rendered investment

banking services to the Debtors in connection with the evaluation of strategic alternatives for restructuring their debt obligations and improving their overall financial conditions. Additionally, Lazard has worked closely with the Debtors’ management and other professionals retained by the Debtors for these Chapter 11 Cases and has become acquainted with the Debtors’ capital structure, liquidity needs and business operations. Background on the Debtors’ Exploration of Strategic Alternatives 7.

The prolonged downturn in the oil and gas market over the past two-years has

resulted in significantly lower activity by the Debtors’ primary customers—oil and gas E&P companies. This manifested into fewer new contracts with these customers and, consequently, lower revenues and losses for the Debtors.

Additionally, lower steel prices and declining

international demand for industrial products resulted in lower activity for the Debtors. The Debtors’ declining revenues, when coupled with operations prone to fluctuations in liquidity, rendered the Debtors legacy capital structure unsustainable. 8.

In light of these circumstances, in late 2016, the Debtors began to explore various

financing and strategic alternatives to enhance their liquidity and address their legacy capital structure. By early 2017, it had become increasingly clear that a comprehensive balance sheet restructuring represented the best path to maximize value for the benefit of all the Debtors’ stakeholders. As such, the Debtors and their advisors commenced negotiations with a number of

3


Case 17-32660 Document 19-1 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 5 of 11

parties in interest, including the Ad Hoc First Lien Group and the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group, as well as their respective advisors, regarding the terms of a potential restructuring. 9.

After extensive negotiations, the Debtors and the other Restructuring Support

Parties (as defined in the Plan) entered into the RSA, which contemplates the comprehensive restructuring that is embodied in the Plan. The Plan provides for a consensual restructuring that will enable the Debtors to de-lever their balance sheet by over $680 million and will provide the Debtors with significant post-emergence liquidity, which will put the Debtors in a position to execute on their new business plan and capitalize on their growth opportunities. 10.

The DIP Facility is a key component of the Debtors’ overall restructuring efforts

because it provides the Debtors with a clear source of financing, both during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases and following the effective date of the Plan, and also provides the stability and certainty that the Debtors can emerge from these Chapter 11 Cases in a timely and expeditious manner. The Debtors’ Need for DIP Financing 11.

The Debtors need access to additional financing (including Cash Collateral) to

permit, among other things, the orderly continuation of operation of their business, to maintain business relationships with vendors, suppliers and customers, to make payroll, and to satisfy other working capital and operational needs, including to address potential adverse impact on their business and operations relating to these Chapter 11 Cases.

The Debtors’ access to

sufficient working capital and liquidity through the DIP Financing is important to the preservation and maintenance of the going concern values of the Debtors, to their ability to sustain market confidence in the business and to complete the reorganization of the Debtors, as contemplated by the RSA. As discussed in the DIP Motion, the DIP Lenders have committed to

4


Case 17-32660 Document 19-1 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 6 of 11

provide financing that could be used by the Debtors to operate their business as debtors-inpossession. 12.

The Debtors, in consultation with Lazard and A&M, determined that absent

access to Cash Collateral and the DIP Financing, the Debtors would not have adequate liquidity for the period necessary to effectuate a the restructuring contemplated by the RSA and the Plan. In addition, the availability of credit is important to the Debtors’ ability to assure their customers, vendors, employees, and contract counterparties that operations are appropriately funded and that the bankruptcy filing will not impact the Debtors’ businesses operationally. 13.

In light of the foregoing and based upon meetings with the Debtors’ management

team and A&M, I understand that the Debtors require access to Cash Collateral and the DIP Financing to fund the costs and expenses of administering these Chapter 11 Cases and continue as a going concern to maintain and maximize value. The proposed DIP Facility and the use of Cash Collateral will provide the Debtors with sufficient liquidity to meet management’s forecasts of their ongoing day-to-day obligations, restructuring related costs, the administrative costs of these Chapter 11 Cases, working capital requirements, and other operational expenses, all of which are necessary to effectuate the value maximizing restructuring contemplated by the RSA and Plan. 14.

Based upon meetings with the Debtors’ management team and A&M, I believe

that without access to the DIP Facility and Cash Collateral, the Debtors will not have sufficient cash on hand to maintain uninterrupted business operations, provide ongoing service to their customers, or pay their employees while they restructure their businesses. Such a disruption in operations would likely have a grave and immediate impact on the Debtors’ businesses and negatively impact their restructuring efforts to the detriment of all stakeholders.

5


Case 17-32660 Document 19-1 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 7 of 11

The Debtors’ Efforts to Obtain DIP Financing 15.

Beginning in early March 2017, Lazard, with the assistance of the Debtors’

management and other advisors, commenced a process to secure the requisite debtor-inpossession financing to fund the Debtors’ ongoing business operations and the contemplated chapter 11 costs. This process began by developing a list of the most likely parties who would be willing to evaluate providing debtor-in-possession financing to the Debtors, understanding the practical realities of the Debtors’ situation—(a) all or substantially all of the Debtors’ assets are encumbered and subject to validly perfected first- and second-priority liens, (b) potentially engaging in a priming fight with the Prepetition Secured Parties’ whose liens would be primed or otherwise facing disputes surrounding the Debtors’ ability to adequately protect the Prepetition Secured Parties’ interest in the Prepetition Collateral, (c) obtaining the consent of the Prepetition Secured Parties to have their liens primed, and (d) the possibility of locating a third-party lender willing to provide debtor-in-possession financing on an unsecured basis. In connection with this process, the Debtors approached eight (8) parties regarding the potential of providing debtor-inpossession financing, including: (w) the Ad Hoc First Lien Group; (x) the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group; (y) the Consenting Sponsor Lenders (as defined in the Plan); and (z) five (5) additional third-party lenders. 16.

At the outset of negotiations, the Ad Hoc First Lien Group expressed interest in

providing potential debtor-in-possession financing in connection with a comprehensive restructuring. Accordingly, the Debtors and their advisors engaged in extensive negotiations with the Ad Hoc First Lien Group, regarding the terms of potential debtor-in-possession financing. Notably, during these negotiations the Ad Hoc First Lien Group expressed that it was unwilling to consent to priming of the Prepetition First Liens by an alternative lender.

6


Case 17-32660 Document 19-1 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 8 of 11

17.

Notwithstanding the likely objection the First Lien Ad Hoc Group and the

possibility of a more risky and damaging “priming” fight, Lazard continued to solicit interest in potential financing from the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group, the Sponsor Entities, and third-party lenders. 18.

During preliminary discussions with the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group regarding

debtor-in-possession financing, the Debtors were unable to make progress on the terms of an acceptable financing package. 19.

The Consenting Sponsor Lenders (as defined in the Plan), in their capacity as

Prepetition Second Lien Lenders, and the Debtors’ engaged in preliminary discussions regarding the potential of the Consenting Sponsor Lenders providing financing that would be secured by certain of the Debtors’ foreign subsidiaries’ assets (the “Sponsor DIP Discussion”). However, the Debtors, in consultation with their advisors, determined that the new liquidity contemplated during the Sponsor DIP Discussions would be insufficient to fund the Debtors’ operations and the administrative costs of the Chapter 11 Cases. Additionally, I am advised by counsel that any debtor-in-possession financing provided by the Consenting Sponsor Lenders consistent with the Sponsor DIP Discussions may have resulted in costly litigation at the outset of the Chapter 11 Cases regarding the Debtors’ use of Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) and did not provide a clear path toward emergence from chapter 11. 20.

Finally, none of five (5) additional third-party lenders that were approached were

willing to provide unsecured financing, or to provide the requisite level of financing secured by the Debtors’ unencumbered assets. A few were willing to consider providing financing secured by liens that primed the Prepetition Liens, but only if the Prepetition Secured Parties would

7


Case 17-32660 Document 19-1 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 9 of 11

consent to such priming liens. Thus, obtaining post-petition financing from a third-party did not seem practical under the circumstances. 21.

Accordingly, the Debtors and their advisors engaged with the Ad Hoc First Lien

Group and its advisors and negotiated the terms described in the DIP Motion and set forth in the DIP Loan Documents. The proposed DIP Facility (a) allows the Debtors to avoid the need to engage in a costly and time-consuming priming fight at the outset of these Chapter 11 Cases, (b) serves as an important component of the Debtors’ overall restructuring efforts because it provides the Debtors with a clear source of financing, both during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases and following the effective date of the Plan, and (c) provides the stability and certainty that the Debtors can emerge from these Chapter 11 Cases in a timely and expeditious manner. Negotiation of the DIP Facility 22.

I believe the extensive negotiations between the Debtors and the First Lien Ad

Hoc Group regarding the terms of the DIP Facility were conducted at arms’-length and in good faith. During the weeks leading up to the Petition Date, the Debtors negotiated the underlying economics and other material terms of the DIP Facility, including the sizing of the facility, the applicable interest rate, and the associated fees, as well as the documentation of the DIP Loan Documents.

Additionally, I believe the third-party marketing process and engaging in the

Sponsor DIP Discussions, assisted the Debtors in negotiations with the First Lien Ad Hoc Group to obtain more favorable terms on the DIP Facility. The DIP Facility Should be Approved 23.

Based on my experience and review of comparable debtor-in-possession

financing transactions, I believe that the economic terms of the DIP Facility are fair and reasonable under the circumstances.

8


Case 17-32660 Document 19-1 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 10 of 11

24.

I believe, based on my experience and involvement in the marketing and

negotiation of the DIP Facility, that the negotiations with all potential lenders were conducted at arms’-length and in good faith. The negotiating process was also successful, as the Debtors were able obtain favorable concessions from the First Lien Ad Hoc Group to improve upon the initial offer of debtor-in-possession financing offered by the Ad Hoc First Lien Group. 25.

In my opinion, the DIP Facility is critical component to Debtors’ consensual and

comprehensive restructuring, and provides the necessary liquidity to (a) make payments to employees, vendors, or suppliers, (b) satisfy ordinary operating costs, and (c) fund the administrative costs of these Chapter 11 Cases. For the reasons set forth herein, I believe that the authority to obtain the DIP Financing, including the use of Cash Collateral, is in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors.

12


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 14 of 211

Lien Lenders and Prepetition Second Lien Lenders (collectively, the “Released Parties�) of and from any and all past or present actions, causes of action, demands, suits, claims, liabilities, Liens, lawsuits, adverse consequences, amounts paid in settlement, costs, damages, debts, deficiencies, diminution in value, disbursements, expenses, losses and other obligations of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether in law, equity or otherwise (including, without limitation, those arising under sections 502(d), 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, 550, 551 and 553 and 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and interest or other carrying costs, penalties, legal, accounting and other professional fees and expenses, and incidental, consequential and punitive damages payable to third parties), whether known or unknown, fixed or contingent, direct, indirect, or derivative, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, suspected or unsuspected, now existing, heretofore existing or which may heretofore accrue against any of the Released Parties, whether held in a personal or representative capacity, and which are based on any act, fact, event or omission or other matter, cause or thing occurring at or from any time prior to and including the date hereof in any way, directly or indirectly arising out of, connected with or relating to the Prepetition Loan Documents, the DIP Loan Documents, this Interim Order, the Final Order or the debtor-creditor relationship among any of the applicable Prepetition Secured Parties or DIP Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Debtors, on the other hand and the transactions contemplated under any of the foregoing, and all other agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents and statements (whether written or oral) related to any of the foregoing. F.

Findings Regarding the DIP Facility. (i)

Need for Post-Petition Financing. The Debtors have an immediate need to

obtain the DIP Facility and use Cash Collateral, among other things, to permit the orderly continuation of the operation of their businesses, to maintain business relationships with vendors,

13


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 15 of 211

suppliers and customers, to make payroll, to make capital expenditures, to satisfy other working capital and operation needs, to administer the Chapter 11 Cases, to consummate the Restructuring Transactions (as defined in the Restructuring Support Agreement), to make Adequate Protection Payments and to pay fees and expenses arising under the DIP Credit Agreement, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the Budget (as defined below). The Debtors’ access to sufficient working capital and liquidity through the use of borrowing under the DIP Facility, the continuation of the Existing Letters of Credit, the issuance of New Letters of Credit (if necessary) and through the use of Cash Collateral is vital to the preservation and maintenance of the going concern values of the Debtors and to a successful reorganization of the Debtors pursuant to the Restructuring Transactions and to avoid immediate and irreparable harm pending the Final Hearing. (ii)

Best Financing Available. As described in the Sorenson Declaration, the

Debtors have been and continue to be unable to obtain financing on more favorable terms from sources other than the DIP Secured Parties under the DIP Loan Documents. The Debtors are unable to obtain adequate unsecured credit allowable under section 503(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code as an administrative expense, or secured credit allowable under sections 364(b), 364(c)(1), 364(c)(2) and 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors are also unable to obtain secured credit allowable under sections 364(c)(1), 364(c)(2) and 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code without the Debtors granting to the DIP Secured Parties the rights, remedies, privileges, benefits and protections provided herein and in the DIP Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the DIP Liens and the DIP Super-Priority Claims (as defined below) (all of the foregoing, including the DIP Liens and the DIP Super-Priority Claims, collectively, the “DIP Protections”).

14


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 16 of 211

(iii)

DIP Liens. The security interests and liens granted pursuant to this Interim

Order to the DIP Agent, for the benefit of itself and the other DIP Secured Parties, are appropriate under section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code because, among other things: (i) such security interests and liens do not impair the interests of any holder of a valid, perfected, prepetition security interest or lien on the property of the Debtors’ estates, (ii) the holders of such valid, perfected prepetition security interests and liens have consented to the security interests and priming liens granted pursuant to this Interim Order to the DIP Agent for the benefit of itself and the other DIP Secured Parties, and/or (iii) the interests of any holder of a valid, perfected, prepetition security interest or lien are otherwise adequately protected. G.

Adequate Protection for Prepetition Secured Parties. The Prepetition Secured

Parties have negotiated in good faith regarding the Debtors’ use of the Prepetition Collateral (including the Cash Collateral) to permit the continued operation of the Debtors’ businesses. The Prepetition First Lien Agent and the Prepetition Second Lien Agent, respectively, have agreed to permit the Debtors to use the Prepetition Collateral (including the Cash Collateral) for the period through the DIP Termination Date (as defined below), subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, including the protections afforded a party acting in “good faith” under sections 363(m) and 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Prepetition Secured Parties are entitled to the adequate protection pursuant to sections 361, 362, 363, 364 and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code as provided in this Interim Order.

The terms of the proposed adequate

protection arrangements and use of the Cash Collateral are fair and reasonable, are sufficient to protect the interests of the Prepetition Secured Parties and reflect the Debtors’ prudent exercise of business judgment and constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the Prepetition Secured Parties’ consent to the entry of this Interim Order and relief provided herein.

15


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 17 of 211

H.

Section 552.

In light of the subordination of their Liens and super-priority

administrative expense claims to (i) the Carve-Out in the case of the DIP Secured Parties (solely with respect to the super-priority administrative expense claims), and (ii) the Carve-Out and the DIP Liens and DIP Super-Priority Claims in the case of the Prepetition Secured Parties, each of the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties are entitled to all of the rights and benefits of section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, upon entry of the Final Order, the “equities of the case” exception shall not apply. I.

Business Judgment and Good Faith Pursuant to Section 364(e). (i)

The DIP Secured Parties have indicated a willingness to provide post-

petition secured financing via the DIP Facility to the Borrower in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order. (ii)

The terms and conditions of the DIP Facility pursuant to the DIP Loan

Documents and this Interim Order, and the fees and expenses paid and to be paid thereunder and the Backstop Payment are fair, reasonable, and the best available under the circumstances, reflect the Debtors’ exercise of prudent business judgment consistent with their fiduciary duties, and are supported by reasonably equivalent value and consideration. (iii)

The DIP Facility and DIP Loan Documents were negotiated in good faith

and at arms’ length among the Debtors, on the one hand, and the DIP Secured Parties, on the other hand, each with the assistance and counsel of their respective advisors, and all of the DIP Obligations shall be deemed to have been extended by the DIP Secured Parties, as applicable, and their respective affiliates for valid business purposes and uses and in good faith, as that term is used in section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and in express reliance upon the protections offered by section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the DIP Obligations, the DIP Liens, the

16


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 18 of 211

DIP Super-Priority Claims and the other DIP Protections shall be entitled to the full protection of section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code in the event this Interim Order or any other order or any provision hereof or thereof is vacated, reversed, amended or modified, on appeal or otherwise. (iv)

The Prepetition Secured Parties have acted in good faith regarding the DIP

Facility and the Debtors’ use of the Prepetition Collateral, including the Debtors’ use of the Cash Collateral, to fund the administration of the Debtors’ estates and continued operation of their business. J.

Relief Essential; Best Interest. Good cause has been shown for immediate entry

of this Interim Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 4001(b)(2) and 4001(c)(2), the Bankruptcy Local Rules and the Complex Case Procedures. For the reasons set forth herein, the Debtors have an immediate and critical need to obtain financing and access Cash Collateral. Absent granting the relief set forth in this Interim Order, the Debtors’ estates and their ability to successfully reorganize will be immediately and irreparably harmed. Consummation of the DIP Facility in accordance with this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents is, therefore, in the best interests of the Debtors’ estates consistent with their fiduciary duties. NOW, THEREFORE, on the Motion and the record before this Court with respect to the Motion, and with the consent of the Debtors, the Prepetition Secured Parties, the DIP Secured Parties to the form and entry of this Interim Order, and good and sufficient cause appearing therefor, IT IS ORDERED that: 1.

Motion Granted. The Motion is granted on an interim basis in accordance with

the terms and conditions set forth in this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents. Any

17


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 19 of 211

objections to the Motion with respect to the entry of this Interim Order that have not been withdrawn, waived or settled, are hereby denied and overruled. 2.

DIP Loan Documents and DIP Protections. (a)

Approval of DIP Loan Documents.

The Debtors are expressly and

immediately authorized to (i) establish the DIP Facility, (ii) execute, deliver and perform under the DIP Loan Documents and to incur the DIP Obligations in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents, and (iii) execute, deliver and perform under all other instruments, certificates, agreements and documents which may be required or necessary for the performance by the applicable Debtors under the DIP Facility and the creation and perfection of the DIP Liens described in, and provided by, this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents. The Debtors are hereby authorized to do and perform all acts necessary to consummate the DIP Documents, to pay the principal, interest, fees, expenses and other amounts described in the DIP Loan Documents as such become due pursuant to the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order, including, without limitation, the Commitment Payments (which Commitment Payments, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be paid solely in respect of the $70 million of new money funding commitments), any Unused Commitment Payments and all other closing fees, administrative fees, arrangement fees, issuance fees, fronting fees, commitment or backstop fees, letter of credit fees and reasonable attorneys’ and financial advisors’ fees and disbursements arising under the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order, to make any required deposits in the DIP Cash Collateral Account and to pay the Backstop Payment, which acts, payments (and the amounts thereof) and deposits shall not be subject to further approval of this Court and such payments shall be non-refundable; provided, however, that the payment of the fees and expenses of the Lender Professionals (as defined

18


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 20 of 211

below) incurred after the Petition Date shall be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 18(a). Upon their execution and delivery, the DIP Loan Documents shall represent valid and binding obligations of the applicable Debtors enforceable against such Debtors in accordance with their terms. Each officer of a Debtor acting singly is hereby authorized to execute and deliver each of the DIP Loan Documents, such execution and delivery to be conclusive of their respective authority to act in the name of and on behalf of the Debtors. (b)

Authorization to Incur DIP Obligations.

To enable the Debtors to

continue to operate their businesses, during the period from the entry of this Interim Order through and including the entry of the Final Order (the “Interim Period”), and subject to the terms and conditions of this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the covenant in Section 7.10 of the DIP Credit Agreement (as the same may be modified, supplemented or updated from time to time, the “Budget Covenant”), the Borrower is hereby authorized to (i) borrow DIP Loans under the DIP Facility in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed $25 million and (ii) request the issuance of New Letters of Credit in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed $2,500,000.00. Following the expiration of the Interim Period, the Borrower’s authority to borrow further DIP Loans and request the issuance of New Letters of Credit will be governed by the terms of the Final Order. The Existing Letters of Credit are hereby deemed letters of credit outstanding under the DIP Facility and the Debtors’ reimbursement obligations in respect thereof are, thus, DIP Obligations subject to all the same rights and protections as other DIP Obligations set forth in this Interim Order. All obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders (as defined in the Prepetition First Lien Credit Agreement) with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit, as set forth in the Prepetition First Lien Credit Agreement, shall be deemed to be obligations of such Revolving Credit

19


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 21 of 211

Lenders as L/C Participants under (and as defined in) the DIP Credit Agreement with respect to the analogous obligations of an L/C Participant under the DIP Credit Agreement as if they were parties to the DIP Credit Agreement in such capacity and, to the extent such obligations are not satisfied by such Revolving Credit Lenders under the DIP Credit Agreement, shall remain outstanding and enforceable during the Chapter 11 Cases and shall not be released by virtue of the Existing Letters of Credit being deemed letters of credit outstanding under the DIP Facility. All DIP Obligations of the Borrower shall be unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Guarantors on a joint and several basis as further provided in the DIP Loan Documents. All obligations arising from the issuance of New Letters of Credit shall be unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Guarantors on a joint and several basis, and cash collateralized by the Borrower, using cash or proceeds of the DIP Loans, in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of New Letters of Credit issued, in each case as further provided in the DIP Documents. (c)

Application of DIP Facility and DIP Collateral Proceeds. The proceeds of

deemed to be an allowed secured claim within the meaning of section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (iv) the Debtors’ Stipulations, including the release provisions therein, shall be binding on all parties in interest, including any Creditors’ Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any Claims and Defenses are timely asserted in any such adversary proceeding or contested matter, the Debtors’ Stipulations and the other provisions in clauses (i) through (iv) in the immediately preceding sentence shall nonetheless remain binding and preclusive on any Creditors’ Committee and on any other party in interest from and after the Challenge Period Termination Date, except to the extent that such Debtors’ Stipulations or the other provisions in clauses (i) through (iv) of the immediately preceding sentence were expressly challenged in such adversary proceeding or contested matter. The Challenge Period in respect of (y) the Prepetition First Lien Credit Facility may be extended by written agreement of the Prepetition First Lien Agent at the direction of the Prepetition First Lien Lenders in accordance with the Prepetition First Lien Credit Agreement at their sole discretion or (z) the Prepetition Second Lien Credit Facility may be extended by written agreement of the Prepetition Second Lien Agent at the direction of the Prepetition Second Lien Lenders in accordance with the Prepetition Second Lien Credit Agreement at their sole discretion. Nothing in this Interim Order vests or confers on any person or entity, including any Creditors’ Committee, standing or authority to pursue any cause of action belonging to any or all of the Debtors or their estates, including, without limitation, any Claim and Defense or other claim against any Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties, Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties or the DIP Secured Parties. Up to $50,000 (such amount, the “Investigation Budget Cap”) in the aggregate of the Carve-Out, any DIP Collateral, any Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) or proceeds of the DIP Facility may be used by any Creditors’ Committee to investigate the Prepetition Liens and

Prepetition Secured Indebtedness. 7.

Carve-Out. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Paragraph 7,

each of the DIP Liens, DIP Super-Priority Claims, Prepetition Liens, Adequate Protection Liens, Adequate Protection Super-Priority Claims and Adequate Protection Payments shall be subject and subordinate to payment of the Carve-Out (as defined below) solely in the event of the delivery of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice (as defined below) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a DIP Event of Default: For purposes of this Interim Order, “Carve-Out” means the sum of (i) all fees required to be paid to the clerk of the Bankruptcy Court and to the Office of the United States Trustee under 28 U.S.C. §1930(a) plus interest at the statutory rate; (ii) all reasonable fees and expenses up to $50,000 incurred by a trustee under section 726(b) of the Bankruptcy Code; (iii) to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise, all unpaid fees (including success, completion, or transaction fees) and expenses (the “Professional Fees”) accrued or incurred by persons or firms retained by the Debtors pursuant to section 327, 328, or 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Debtor Professionals”) and any Creditors’ Committee pursuant to section 328 or 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Committee Professionals” and, together with the Debtor Professionals, the “Professionals”) at any time before or on the first business day following delivery by the DIP Agent of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice (as defined below), whether allowed by the Bankruptcy Court prior to or after delivery of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice, subject to the Investigation Budget Cap; (iv) the Professional Fees in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,000,000.00 incurred after the first business day following delivery by the DIP Agent of the Carve-Out Trigger Notice, to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order or otherwise (the amounts set forth in this clause

38


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 40 of 211

(iv) being the “Post Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap”); provided that nothing herein shall be construed to impair the ability of any party to object to the fees, expenses, reimbursement, or compensation described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) above, on any grounds. For purposes of the foregoing, “Carve-Out Trigger Notice” shall mean a written notice delivered by email (or other electronic means) by the DIP Agent to the DIP Lenders, the Debtors, their lead restructuring counsel, counsel to the Ad Hoc First Lien Group, counsel to the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group, the U.S. Trustee and counsel to the Creditors’ Committee, which notice may be delivered following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and acceleration of the DIP Facility, stating that the Post-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap has been invoked. (a)

On the day on which a Carve-Out Trigger Notice is given by the DIP

Agent as set forth herein (the “Termination Declaration Date”), the Carve-Out Trigger Notice shall (i) be deemed a draw request and notice of borrowing by the Debtors for DIP Loans (on a pro rata basis based on the then outstanding DIP Loans), in an amount equal to the then unpaid amounts of the Professional Fees (any such amounts actually advanced shall constitute DIP Loans) and (ii) also constitute a demand to the Debtors to utilize all cash on hand (including cash collateral) as of such date and any available cash thereafter held by any Debtor to fund a reserve in an amount equal to the then unpaid amounts of the Professional Fees. The Debtors shall deposit and hold such amounts in a segregated account at the DIP Agent in trust to pay such then unpaid Professional Fees (the “Pre-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Reserve”) prior to any and all other claims (including the DIP Superpriority Claims). On the Termination Declaration Date, the Carve-Out Trigger Notice shall also be deemed a request by the Debtors for DIP Loans under the DIP Facility (on a pro rata basis based on the then outstanding DIP Loan Commitments), in

39


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 41 of 211

an amount equal to the Post-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap (any such amounts actually advanced shall constitute DIP Loans). The Debtors shall deposit and hold such amounts in a segregated account at the DIP Agent in trust to pay such Professional Fees benefiting from the Post-CarveOut Trigger Notice Cap (the “Post Carve-Out Trigger Notice Reserve” and, together with the Pre-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Reserve, the “Carve-Out Reserves”) prior to any and all other claims. Notwithstanding anything in the DIP Credit Agreement to the contrary, including with respect to the existence of a Default or DIP Event of Default, the failure of the Debtors to satisfy any or all of the conditions precedent for DIP Loans under the DIP Credit Agreement, any termination of the Commitments following a DIP Event of Default, or the occurrence of the Maturity Date, each Lender with an outstanding Commitment (on a pro rata basis based on the then outstanding Commitments) shall make available to the DIP Agent such Lender’s pro rata share with respect to such borrowing in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement. (b)

All funds in the Pre-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Reserve shall be used first

to pay the obligations set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) of the definition of Carve-Out set forth above (the “Pre-Carve-Out Amounts”), but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the Post-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap, until paid in full, and then, to the extent the Pre Carve-Out Trigger Notice Reserve has not been reduced to zero, to pay the DIP Agent for the benefit of the DIP Lenders, unless the DIP Facility has been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash, and all DIP Obligations have been terminated, in which case any such excess shall be paid to the Prepetition Secured Parties in accordance with their rights and priorities as of the Petition Date. (c)

All funds in the Post-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Reserve shall be used first

to pay the obligations set forth in clause (iv) of the definition of Carve-Out set forth above (the “Post-Carve-Out Amounts”), and then, to the extent the Post Carve-Out Trigger Notice Reserve

40


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 42 of 211

has not been reduced to zero, to pay the DIP Agent for the benefit of the DIP Lenders, unless the DIP Facility has been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash, and all DIP Obligations have been terminated, in which case any such excess shall be paid to the Prepetition Secured Parties in accordance with their rights and priorities as of the Petition Date. (d)

Notwithstanding anything in the DIP Loan Documents or the DIP Orders

to the contrary: (i) if either of the Carve-Out Reserves is not funded in full in the amounts set forth herein, then any excess funds in one of the Carve-Out Reserves following the payment of the Pre-Carve-Out Amounts and Post-Carve-Out Amounts, respectively, shall be used to fund the other Carve-Out Reserve, up to the applicable amount set forth herein, prior to making any payments to the DIP Secured Parties or the Prepetition Secured Parties, as applicable; (ii) following delivery of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice, the DIP Agent and the Prepetition First Lien Agent shall not sweep or foreclose on cash (including cash received as a result of the sale or other disposition of any assets) of the Debtors until the Carve-Out Reserves have been fully funded, but shall have a security interest in any residual interest in the Carve-Out Reserves, with any excess paid to the DIP Agent for application in accordance with this Interim Order; (iii) disbursements by the Debtors from the Carve-Out Reserves shall not constitute DIP Loans or increase or reduce the balance of the DIP Superpriority Claims outstanding; (iv) the failure of the Carve-Out Reserves to satisfy in full the Professional Fees shall not affect or impair the priority of the Carve-Out; (v) in no way shall any of the Carve-Out, Post-Carve-Out Trigger Notice Cap, Carve-Out Reserves or any budget or financial projection delivered in connection with the DIP Facility be construed as a cap or limitation on the amount of the Professional Fees due and payable by the Debtors or their estates.

41

(e)

For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary

herein or in any intercreditor agreement, the DIP Loan Documents or in any of the Prepetition Loan Documents, the Carve-Out shall be senior to all liens and claims securing the DIP Facility (including the DIP Superpriority Claims), and any and all other forms of adequate protection, liens or claims securing the DIP Facility or the obligations under the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness. (f)

Any payment or reimbursement made prior to the occurrence of the

Termination Declaration Date in respect of any Professional Fees shall not reduce the Carve-Out. (g)

Any payment or reimbursement made on a final basis or after the

occurrence of the Termination Declaration Date in respect of any Professional Fees shall permanently reduce the Carve-Out on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Any funding of the Carve-Out shall be added to, and made a part of, the DIP Facility secured by the DIP Collateral and shall be otherwise entitled to the protections granted under the order approving the DIP Facility, the Bankruptcy Code and applicable law. (h)

For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary

herein or in any intercreditor agreement, the DIP Loan Documents or in any of the documents evidencing the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, the Carve-Out shall not include, apply to, or be available for any fees or expenses incurred by any party in connection with (a) the investigation, initiation or prosecution of any claims, causes of action, adversary proceedings or other litigation, other than the investigation of such claims by the Creditors’ Committee (if any) prior to the delivery of a Carve-Out Trigger Notice and subject to the Investigation Budget Cap, (1) against any of the DIP Lenders, the DIP Agent or the Prepetition Secured Parties, or (2) challenging the amount, validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of or asserting any

defense, counterclaim or offset to, the obligations and the liens and security interests granted under the DIP Loan Documents or the Prepetition Loan Documents, including, in each case without limitation, for lender liability or pursuant to section 105, 510, 544, 547, 548, 549, 550, or 552 of the Bankruptcy Code, applicable non-bankruptcy law or otherwise; (b) attempts to modify any of the rights granted to the DIP Lenders or the DIP Agent with respect to the DIP Facility; (c) attempts to prevent, hinder or otherwise delay any of the DIP Lenders’ or the DIP Agent’s assertion, enforcement or realization upon any DIP Collateral in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents and the DIP Orders once a DIP Event of Default has occurred, an Enforcement Notice has been issued, and the automatic stay has been terminated as contemplated by Paragraph 14(a) hereof; or (d) paying any amount on account of any claims arising before the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases unless such payments are approved by an order of the Bankruptcy Court; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Investigation Budget Cap) shall not limit (or be deemed to limit) the Debtors’ rights to seek recharacterization of adequate protection as being applied to principal. None of the DIP Agent, DIP Lenders or the Prepetition Secured Parties shall be responsible for the direct payment or reimbursement of any fees or disbursements of any retained professionals, the Creditors’ Committee (if any), the U.S. Trustee or Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court (or of any other entity) incurred in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Case, and nothing in this Interim Order or otherwise shall be construed to obligate such parties in any way to (i) pay such compensation to or to reimburse such expenses or, except as explicitly provided in this paragraph, or (ii) assure that the Debtors have sufficient funds on hand to pay any of the foregoing.

8.

Waiver of Section 506(c) Claims. Subject to entry of the Final Order, as a

further condition of the DIP Facility and any obligation of the DIP Secured Parties to make credit extensions pursuant to the DIP Loan Documents, and as a further condition to the consents and approvals of the Prepetition Secured Parties in this Interim Order, respectively, (and their respective consent to the payment of the Carve-Out to the extent provided herein), no costs or expenses of administration of the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Case shall be charged against or recovered from or against any or all of the DIP Secured Parties, the Prepetition Secured Parties, the DIP Collateral and the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) pursuant to section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the DIP Agent, the L/C Issuers (in each case as required by the DIP Credit Agreement), the Prepetition First Lien Agent and the Prepetition Second Lien Agent, as applicable, and no such consent shall be implied from any other action, inaction or acquiescence of any or all of the DIP Secured Parties or the Prepetition Secured Parties 9.

After-Acquired Property. Except as otherwise provided in this Interim Order,

pursuant to section 552(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, all property acquired by the Debtors on or after the Petition Date is not, and shall not be, subject to any Lien of any person or entity resulting from any security agreement entered into by the Debtors prior to the Petition Date including, without limitation, in respect of the Prepetition First Lien Credit Facility or the Prepetition Second Lien Credit Facility (other than with respect to the replacement Liens that form a portion of the Adequate Protection Liens), except to the extent that such property constitutes proceeds of property of the Debtors that is subject to a valid, binding, enforceable, perfected and unavoidable Lien as of the Petition Date which is not subject to subordination under the Bankruptcy Code or other provisions or principles of applicable law, and, subject to

entry of the Final Order, the “equities of the case” exception under section 552(b) shall not apply to the Prepetition Secured Parties with respect to the proceeds, products, offspring or profits of any of the Prepetition Collateral. 10.

Protection of DIP Secured Parties’ Rights. (a)

Until such time that all DIP Obligations have been Paid in Full, each

Prepetition Secured Party shall (i) not exercise any right or remedy relating to the DIP Collateral, including without limitation, seeking relief from the automatic stay, seeking any sale, realization upon repossession or liquidation of any property or taking any action to foreclose upon or recover in connection with the Liens granted in respect of the Prepetition First Lien Credit Facility (including, without limitation, the Prepetition First Liens and the First Lien Adequate Protection Liens) and the Prepetition Second Lien Credit Facility (including, without limitation, the Prepetition Second Liens and the Second Lien Adequate Protection Liens), or otherwise exercise remedies against any DIP Collateral (in each case, other than in its capacity as a DIP Secured Party), (ii) be deemed to have consented to any and all releases of DIP Collateral authorized under the DIP Loan Documents or otherwise consented to by the requisite DIP Secured Parties (provided that the Liens of the Prepetition Secured Parties attach to the proceeds of any disposition of such released DIP Collateral with the same priorities as provided herein), and (iii) not file any further financing statements, trademark filings, copyright filings, mortgages, notices of Lien or similar instruments, or otherwise take any action to perfect their Liens, in their respective capacities as Prepetition Secured Parties, on the DIP Collateral unless, solely as to this clause (iii) the Prepetition First Lien Agent and/or Prepetition Second Lien Agent files financing statements or other documents to perfect the Adequate Protection Liens granted pursuant to this

Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 47 of 211

Interim Order, or as may be required by applicable state law to continue the perfection of valid and unavoidable Liens as of the Petition Date. (b)

Unless the requisite DIP Secured Parties and the Additional L/C Issuer

under the DIP Loan Documents shall have provided their prior written consent, as applicable under the DIP Loan Documents, or all DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly Paid in Full (or will be indefeasibly Paid in Full upon entry of a final, non-appealable order approving indebtedness described in clause (i) of this subsection (b)), there shall not be entered in these proceedings, or in any Successor Case, any order which authorizes any of the following: (i) the obtaining of credit or the incurring of indebtedness that is secured by a security, mortgage or collateral interest or other Lien on all or any portion of the DIP Collateral and/or that is entitled to administrative priority status, in each case which is superior to or pari passu with (x) the DIP Liens, DIP Super-Priority Claims and other DIP Protections granted pursuant to this Interim Order to the DIP Secured Parties or (y) the Prepetition Liens, the Adequate Protection Liens, the Adequate Protection Super-Priority Claims and the Forms of Adequate Protection granted to the Prepetition Secured Parties; or (ii) the use of Cash Collateral for any purpose other than to indefeasibly Pay in Full the DIP Obligations or as otherwise permitted in the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order. (c)

clauses (ii) through (iv) below) in accordance with the terms of the DIP Loan Documents will (i) maintain books, records and accounts to the extent and as required by the DIP Loan Documents, (ii) cooperate, consult with, and provide to the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders all such information as required or allowed under the DIP Loan Documents or the provisions of this Interim Order, (iii) permit representatives and independent contractors of the DIP Agent such

rights to visit and inspect any of the Debtors’ respective properties, to examine any of their respective corporate, financial and operating records, and make abstracts or copies thereof, and to discuss their respective affairs, finances and accounts with their respective directors, officers and independent public accountants as and to the extent required by the DIP Loan Documents, and (iv) permit representatives of the DIP Agent to consult with the Debtors’ management and advisors on matters concerning the general status of the Debtors’ businesses, financial condition and operations. 11.

Proceeds of Subsequent Financing.

Without limiting the provisions and

protections of Paragraph 10 above, if at any time prior to the indefeasible Payment in Full of all DIP Obligations (including subsequent to the confirmation of a chapter 11 plan or plans with respect to any of the Debtors), the Debtors’ estates, any trustee, any examiner with enlarged powers or any responsible officer subsequently appointed, shall obtain credit or incur debt pursuant to sections 364(b), 364(c), 364(d) or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code (except section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, until entry of a Final Order) in violation of the DIP Loan Documents or this Interim Order, then all of the cash proceeds derived from such credit or debt and all Cash Collateral shall immediately be turned over to the DIP Agent until indefeasible Payment in Full of the DIP Obligations in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents. 12.

Cash Collection. Cash collections (including, but not limited to, payments from

customers with respect to accounts receivable) constituting proceeds of DIP Collateral shall be directed to deposit accounts (“Cash Collection Accounts”) under the control of the DIP Agent pursuant to a structure reasonably satisfactory to the DIP Agent and in compliance with the Cash Management Order (as defined below). Upon the direction of the DIP Agent at any time after

47


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 49 of 211

the occurrence of an Event of Default, subject to the Carve-Out, (a) all proceeds in the Cash Collection Accounts shall be remitted to the DIP Agent until Payment in Full of the DIP Obligations and the DIP Agent shall take all action that is necessary or appropriate to effectuate the foregoing and (b) the Debtors and the financial institutions where the Debtors’ cash collection accounts are maintained (including those accounts identified in any Cash Management Order) are authorized and directed to remit funds in such Cash Collection Accounts upon receipt of any direction to that effect from the DIP Agent. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the DIP Agent, the Debtors shall maintain no accounts and shall not open any new accounts except those identified, or allowed to be open, in any order of the Court approving the Debtors’ cash management system (the “Cash Management Order”).

automated

clearinghouse transactions, return items, overdrafts and interstate depository network services provided on a post-petition basis by any financial institution at which any Cash Collection Account is maintained; provided, however, that (i) any Lien securing any such obligations shall be junior to the DIP Lien on the funds in the cash collection accounts at such financial institution, and (ii) except to the extent otherwise required by the Court, nothing herein shall require any DIP Secured Party or any Prepetition Secured Party to incur any overdrafts or provide any such services or functions to the Debtors. 13.

Disposition of DIP Collateral.

The Debtors shall not sell, transfer, lease,

encumber or otherwise dispose of any portion of the DIP Collateral without the prior written consent of the requisite DIP Secured Parties under the DIP Loan Documents (and no such consent shall be implied from any other action, inaction or acquiescence by any DIP Secured

Party or any order of this Court), except for sales of inventory in the ordinary course of business or except as otherwise permitted in the DIP Loan Documents and this Interim Order and approved by the Court to the extent required under applicable bankruptcy law. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in the DIP Loan Documents, all proceeds from the sale, transfer, lease, encumbrance or other disposition of any DIP Collateral shall be remitted to the DIP Agent, until Payment in Full of the DIP Obligations in accordance with the terms of the DIP Loan Documents. 14.

Events of Default. (a)

Any automatic stay otherwise applicable to the DIP Secured

Parties is hereby modified, without requiring prior notice to or authorization of this Court (except as provided in clause (ii) below), to the extent necessary to permit the DIP Secured Parties to exercise (i) immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a DIP Event of Default all rights and remedies under this Interim Order and the DIP Loan Documents, other than those rights and remedies against the DIP Collateral as provided in clause (ii) below, and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a DIP Event of Default and the obtaining of relief from the automatic stay after the giving of seven days’ prior written notice (the “Enforcement Notice”) to the Debtors (with a copy to the U.S. Trustee, the respective lead counsel to any Creditors’ Committee (if any), the L/C Issuers, the Prepetition First Lien Agent, Prepetition Second Lien Agent, Prepetition First Lien Lenders and Prepetition Second Lien Lenders), all rights and remedies against the DIP Collateral provided for in any DIP Loan Documents or applicable law (including, without limitation, the right to set off against accounts maintained by the Debtors with the DIP Agent, any other DIP Secured Party, any Prepetition Secured Party or any of their respective affiliates); provided, however, that notwithstanding

49


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 51 of 211

anything to the contrary in clause (ii) above, immediately following the giving of an Enforcement Notice by the DIP Agent, any obligation otherwise imposed on any or all of the DIP Agent or the other DIP Secured Parties to provide any loan or other financial accommodation to the Debtors pursuant to the DIP Facility (other than to permit the Debtors to use Cash Collateral in accordance with the Budget) shall immediately be suspended. Following the giving of an Enforcement Notice by the DIP Agent, the Debtors and any Creditors’ Committee shall be entitled to an emergency hearing before this Court. Subject to any order of the Court that is entered during such seven day period, the automatic stay, as to the DIP Secured Parties shall automatically terminate at the end of such notice period. (b)

Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 14(a), upon the occurrence of a DIP Event

of Default, the DIP Agent and the other DIP Secured Parties are authorized to exercise their rights and remedies and to proceed against any or all of the DIP Collateral under or pursuant to the DIP Loan Documents, this Interim Order and applicable law, including without limitation, exercising any of the Debtors’ rights with respect to the Debtors’ interests in the Joint Venture Entities and the Debtors’ interests in leaseholds, including without limitation, selling, leasing or otherwise transferring any of the Debtors’ interests in any Joint Venture Entity or leasehold notwithstanding any contractual provision that would otherwise prohibit, restrict, condition or delay any or all of the DIP Agent and the other DIP Secured Parties from taking any such action. All proceeds realized in connection with the exercise of the rights and remedies of the DIP Secured Parties shall be turned over to the DIP Agent until indefeasible Payment in Full of the DIP Obligations in accordance with the terms of the DIP Loan Documents; provided, that in the event of the liquidation of the Debtors’ estates after a DIP Event of Default, the unused amount of the Carve-Out shall be funded into a segregated account exclusively (i) first, from proceeds of

50


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 52 of 211

any unencumbered assets of the Debtors, and (ii) then from Cash Collateral received by the DIP Agent prior to the distribution of any such Cash Collateral to any other parties in interest. (c)

Subject to the limitations in this Paragraph 14, the automatic stay imposed under

Bankruptcy Code section 362(a) is hereby modified pursuant to the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement as necessary to (i) permit the Debtors to grant the Adequate Protection Liens and the DIP Liens and to incur all liabilities and obligations to the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties, the Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties, the DIP Secured Parties under the DIP Loan Documents, the DIP Facility and this Interim Order, (ii) authorize the DIP Secured Parties, the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties and Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties to retain and apply payments hereunder, and (iii) otherwise to the extent necessary to implement and effectuate the provisions of this Interim Order. 15.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the

contrary, no proceeds from the DIP Facility, DIP Collateral or proceeds thereof, Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) or proceeds thereof (including any prepetition retainer funded by the Prepetition Collateral), or any portion of the Carve-Out may be used by any of the Debtors, any Creditors’ Committee, and any trustee or other estate representative appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Case, or any other person, party or entity to (or to pay any professional fees and disbursements incurred in connection therewith) (a) request authorization to obtain post-petition loans or other financial accommodations pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 364(c) or (d), or otherwise, other than from the DIP Secured Parties; (b) investigate (except as set forth below), assert, join, commence, support or prosecute any action for any claim, counter-claim, action, proceeding, application, motion, objection, defense or other contested matter seeking any order, judgment, determination or similar relief against, or adverse

51


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 53 of 211

to the interests of, in any capacity, any or all of the DIP Secured Parties, the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties, the Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, affiliates, assigns or successors, with respect to any transaction, occurrence, omission, action or other matter (including formal discovery proceedings in anticipation thereof), including, without limitation, (i) any Claims and Defenses, any Avoidance Actions or other actions arising under chapter 5 or section 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) any so-called “lender liability” claims and causes of action; (iii) any action with respect to the validity, enforceability, priority and extent of the DIP Obligations and/or the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, or the validity, extent, and priority of the DIP Liens, the Prepetition Liens, or the Adequate Protection Liens (or the value of any of the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) or DIP Collateral); (iv) any action seeking to invalidate, set aside, avoid or subordinate, in whole or in part, the DIP Liens, the other DIP Protections, the Prepetition Liens or the Forms of Adequate Protection; (v) except as permitted in Paragraph 14(a), any action seeking, or having the effect of, preventing, hindering or otherwise delaying any or all of the DIP Secured Parties’ and any of the Prepetition Secured Parties’ assertion, enforcement or realization on the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) or the DIP Collateral in accordance with the DIP Loan Documents, the Prepetition Loan Documents or this Interim Order; and/or (vi) any action seeking to modify any of the rights, remedies, priorities, privileges, protections and benefits granted to any or all of the DIP Secured Parties, and the Prepetition Secured Parties hereunder or under the DIP Loan Documents or the Prepetition Loan Documents; provided, however, that amounts up to the Investigation Budget Cap comprising any of the Carve-Out, any DIP Collateral, any Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) or

52


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 54 of 211

proceeds of the DIP Facility may be used by a Creditors’ Committee (if any) to investigate the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness and the Prepetition Liens (the “Committee Investigation”). 16.

Proofs of Claim. Each of the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured

Parties shall not be required to file proofs of claim evidencing the DIP Obligations, the DIP Protections, the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness or the Forms of Adequate Protection, as applicable, in the Chapter 11 Cases or in any Successor Case. 17.

Preservation of Rights Granted under the Order. (a)

No Non-Consensual Modification or Extension of Interim Order. Unless

all DIP Obligations shall have been indefeasibly Paid in Full, the Debtors shall not seek, and it shall constitute a DIP Event of Default (resulting, among other things, in the termination of the Debtors’ right to use Cash Collateral), if there is entered (i) an order amending, supplementing, extending or otherwise modifying this Interim Order or (ii) an order converting or dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases, in each case, without the prior written consent of the DIP Agent, and no such consent shall be implied by any other action, inaction or acquiescence. (b)

Dismissal. If any order dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases (under

section 1112 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) is at any time entered, such order shall have no effect on the DIP Protections and Forms of Adequate Protection, and the DIP Protections and the Forms of Adequate Protection shall continue in full force and effect and shall maintain their priorities as provided in this Interim Order until all DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly Paid in Full and all Forms of Adequate Protection have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash or otherwise satisfied in full (and that all DIP Protections and Forms of Adequate Protection shall, notwithstanding such dismissal, remain binding on all parties in interest), and (ii) this Court shall

53


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 55 of 211

(d)

Survival of Interim Order. The provisions of this Interim Order, the DIP

Loan Documents, any actions taken pursuant hereto or thereto, and all of the DIP Protections, Forms of Adequate Protection, and all other rights, remedies, Liens, priorities, privileges, protections and benefits granted to any or all of the DIP Secured Parties, the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties and the Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties shall survive, and shall not be modified, impaired or discharged by, the entry of any order confirming any plan of reorganization in any Case, converting any Case to a case under chapter 7, dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases, withdrawing of the reference of any of the Chapter 11 Cases or any Successor Case or providing for abstention from handling or retaining of jurisdiction of any of the Chapter 11 Cases in this Court, or terminating the joint administration of these Chapter 11 Cases or by any other act or omission. The terms and provisions of this Interim Order, including all of the DIP Protections, Forms of Adequate Protection and all other rights, remedies, Liens, priorities, privileges, protections and benefits granted to any or all of the DIP Secured Parties, the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties, and the Prepetition Second Lien Secured Parties shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the entry of any such order, and such DIP Protections and Forms of Adequate Protection shall continue in these proceedings and in any Successor Case, and shall maintain their respective priorities as provided by this Interim Order. The DIP Obligations shall not be discharged by the entry of an order confirming any chapter 11 plan, the Debtors having waived such discharge pursuant to section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code. 18.

Other Rights and Obligations. (a)

Expenses.

As provided in the DIP Loan Documents, the applicable

Debtors will pay all reasonable expenses incurred by the DIP Secured Parties (including, without

55


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 57 of 211

limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of all counsel and financial advisors for the DIP Secured Parties as provided herein) in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the DIP Loan Documents, this Interim Order, any Final Order and any other agreements, instruments, pleadings or other documents prepared or reviewed in connection with any of the foregoing, whether or not any or all of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the DIP Loan Documents are consummated. Except as set forth in this paragraph, payment of such fees shall not be subject to allowance by this Court. Professionals for the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties (collectively, the “Lender Professionals”) shall not be required to comply with the U.S. Trustee fee guidelines or submit invoices to the Court. Copies of invoices submitted to the Debtors by such Lender Professionals shall be forwarded by the Debtors to the U.S. Trustee, counsel for any Creditors’ Committee and such other parties as the Court may direct. The invoices shall be sufficiently detailed to enable a determination as to the reasonableness of such fees and expenses (without limiting the right of the various professionals to redact privileged, confidential or sensitive information). If the Debtors, U.S. Trustee or counsel for any Creditors’ Committee objects to the reasonableness of the fees and expenses of any of the Lender Professionals and cannot resolve such objection within ten (10) days of receipt of such invoices, the Debtors, U.S. Trustee or the Creditors’ Committee (if any), as the case may be, shall file and serve on such Lender Professionals an objection with the Court (the “Fee Objection”) limited to the issue of reasonableness of such fees and expenses. The Debtors shall timely pay the Lender Professionals’ invoices after the expiration of the ten (10) day notice period if no Fee Objection is received in such ten (10) day period. If a Fee Objection is timely received, the Debtors shall only be required to pay the undisputed amount of the

56


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 58 of 211

invoice and the Court shall have jurisdiction to determine the disputed portion of such invoice if the parties are unable to resolve the dispute. (b)

Binding Effect.

The provisions of this Interim Order, including all

findings herein, and the DIP Loan Documents shall be binding upon all parties in interest in these Chapter 11 Cases, including, without limitation, the DIP Secured Parties, the Prepetition Secured Parties, any Creditors’ Committee and the Debtors and their respective successors and assigns (including any chapter 7 or chapter 11 trustee hereinafter appointed or elected for the estate of any of the Debtors, an examiner appointed pursuant to section 1104 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other fiduciary or responsible person appointed as a legal representative of any of the Debtors or with respect to the property of the estate of any of the Debtors), whether in any of the Chapter 11 Cases, in any Successor Cases, or upon dismissal of any such Case or Successor Case; provided, however, that the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties shall have no obligation to permit the use of Cash Collateral or to extend any financing to any chapter 7 or chapter 11 trustee or other responsible person appointed for the estates of the Debtors in any Case or Successor Case. (c)

No Waiver. Neither the failure of the Prepetition Secured Parties to seek

relief or otherwise exercise their rights and remedies under this Interim Order, the Prepetition Loan Documents or otherwise (or any delay in seeking or exercising same), nor the failure of the DIP Secured Parties to seek relief or otherwise exercise their respective rights and remedies under this Interim Order, the DIP Loan Documents or otherwise (or any delay in seeking or exercising same), shall constitute a waiver of any of such parties’ rights hereunder, thereunder or otherwise.

57

(d)

No Third Party Rights. Except as explicitly provided for herein, this

Interim Order does not create any rights for the benefit of any third party, creditor, equity holder or any direct, indirect, or incidental beneficiary. In determining to make any loan or financial accommodation (whether under the DIP Credit Agreement or otherwise) or to permit the use of Cash Collateral or in exercising any rights or remedies as and when permitted pursuant to this Interim Order, the DIP Loan Documents, the DIP Secured Parties and the Prepetition Secured Parties shall not (i) be deemed to be in control of the operations of the Debtors, or (ii) owe any fiduciary duty to the Debtors, their respective creditors, shareholders or estates. (e)

No Marshaling.

None of the DIP Secured Parties or the Prepetition

Secured Parties shall be subject to the equitable doctrine of “marshaling” or any other similar doctrine with respect to any of the DIP Collateral or the Prepetition Collateral, as applicable. (f)

Amendments.

The Debtors are authorized and empowered, without

further notice and hearing or approval of this Court, to amend, modify, supplement or waive any provision of the DIP Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions thereof and this Interim Order; provided that no amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of any terms or conditions set forth in the DIP Loan Documents relating to (i) the Existing Letters of Credit shall be effective without the prior written consent of each Existing L/C Issuer and (ii) the New Letters of Credit shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Additional L/C Issuer; and provided, further, that the Debtors shall file and seek the Court’s approval of any proposed material modification or amendment to the DIP Credit Agreement (other than those necessary to conform the DIP Credit Agreement to this Interim Order or the Final Order) that is adverse to the Debtors’ estates, the Prepetition First Lien Secured Parties, or the Prepetition Second Lien

Secured Parties (solely to the extent required by the Second Lien Lender Consent Right (as defined in the Restructuring Support Agreement)). (g)

Intercreditor Matters. Nothing in this Interim Order shall be construed to

convey to any individual DIP Secured Party or Prepetition Secured Party any consent, voting or other rights beyond those (if any) set forth in the DIP Loan Documents and the Prepetition Loan Documents, as applicable. Except as specifically provided herein, nothing in this Interim Order shall be construed to impair, modify or otherwise affect any intercreditor, subordination or similar agreement or arrangement in respect of the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, including the Prepetition Intercreditor Agreement, which are enforceable to the fullest extent provided by section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable law. (h)

Inconsistency. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and

conditions of the DIP Loan Documents and of this Interim Order, the provisions of this Interim Order shall govern and control. (i)

Enforceability. This Interim Order shall constitute findings of fact and

conclusions of law pursuant to the Bankruptcy Rule 7052 and shall take effect and be fully enforceable nunc pro tunc to the Petition Date immediately upon execution hereof. Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rules 4001(a)(3), 6004(h), 6006(d), 7062 or 9024 or any other Bankruptcy Rule, or Rule 62(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, this Interim Order shall be immediately effective and enforceable upon its entry, and there shall be no stay of execution or effectiveness of this Interim Order.

No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Existing L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the Existing L/C Issuer under any Existing Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. (iv) If any L/C Participant fails to make to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Existing L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such L/C Participant pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(i), the Existing L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Existing L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the Existing L/C Issuer submitted to any L/C Participant (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(iv) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (d) Repayment of Participations. (i) If, at any time after the Existing L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Existing Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant such L/C Participant’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the Existing L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such L/C Participant its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such L/C Participant’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Existing L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Existing L/C Issuer in its discretion), each L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Existing L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such L/C Participant, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Existing L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Existing Letter of Credit issued by it and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid

Neither the Existing L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Existing L/C Issuer shall be liable to any L/C Participant for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, or a majority in interest of the L/C Participants; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Existing Letter of Credit or letter of credit application under the First Lien Credit Agreement. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Existing Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. Neither the Existing L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Existing L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(e); provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the Existing L/C Issuer and such Existing L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the Existing L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Existing L/C Issuer’s willful or grossly negligent failure to pay under any Existing Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of an Existing Letter of Credit, in each case as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Existing L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the Existing L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign an Existing Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(iii) The Additional L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any DIP Letter of Credit if (A) the Additional L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such DIP Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such DIP Letter of Credit. (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of DIP Letters of Credit. (i) Each DIP Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the Additional L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the Additional L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the Additional L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the Additional L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Additional L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a DIP Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. (iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Additional L/C Issuer shall agree to issue a DIP Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Additional L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than fifteen (15) days (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) prior to the end of such twelve month period. Unless otherwise directed by the Additional L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Additional L/C Issuer for any such extension; provided that the Additional L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Additional L/C Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such DIP Letter of Credit in its extended form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a)(iii) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five (5) Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied. (iv) Promptly after issuance of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit, the Additional L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. (c) DIP Cash Collateral Account; Collateral and Withdrawals. (i) On or prior to the Business Day on which the Borrower delivers a Letter of Credit Application to the Additional L/C Issuer with respect to a DIP Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall establish the DIP Cash Collateral Account (if it does not already exist) and cause to be deposited therein an amount of Cash Collateral at least equal to 105% of the maximum face amount of such DIP Letter of Credit, and the Borrower shall at all times maintain in the DIP Cash Collateral Account an amount of Cash Collateral at least equal to 105% of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all DIP Letters of Credit plus 105% of the face amount of all DIP Letters of Credit requested under

(ii) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any DIP Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Additional L/C Issuer shall notify promptly the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. The Borrower shall immediately become obligated to reimburse the Additional L/C Issuer for the amount of such drawing. The Additional L/C Issuer shall, upon a drawing on any DIP Letter of Credit, withdraw from the DIP Cash Collateral Account Cash Collateral an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and apply such amount to the reimbursement obligation of the Borrower pursuant to the preceding sentence. To the extent that the Additional L/C Issuer is unable for any reason so to withdraw such amounts or so to apply such amounts to such reimbursement obligation, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay interest to the Additional L/C Issuer on the amount thereof at the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans from the date of such drawing to the date on which the reimbursement obligation of the Borrower shall be satisfied. Such reimbursement obligation shall rank pari passu with the Loans, and interest payable on such reimbursement obligation under this clause (ii) shall rank pari passu with interest on the Loans. (d)

[Reserved].

(e) Obligations Absolute.

Neither the Additional L/C Issuer, any AgentRelated Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Additional L/C Issuer shall be liable to any party hereto for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any DIP Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application.

SECTION 2.05.

Prepayments.

(a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable other than as specified in the last sentence of this subsection (a)), at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon New York City time (A) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (B) one (1) Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $750,000, or a whole multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Net Proceeds in respect of a Prepayment Event described in clause (a) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event” shall not be required to be so applied to the extent that in the case of aggregate Net Proceeds less than $100,000, the Borrower invests such Net Proceeds in new or existing properties or assets used in the Loan Parties’ business and constituting Collateral hereunder, in accordance with the Budget, within 90 days after such Net Proceeds are received (but in no event later than the Maturity Date); and (ii) any Net Proceeds in respect of a Prepayment Event described in clause (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event” in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100,000 shall not be required to be so applied to the extent that the Borrower invests such Net Proceeds to repair or replace the assets for which such proceeds were received, to the extent constituting Collateral hereunder, in accordance with the Budget, within 90 days after such Net Proceeds are received (but in no event later than the Maturity Date). (ii) Notice. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Loans required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) at least four (4) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the prepayment. (iii) Losses, Etc. All prepayments under this Section 2.05 shall be made together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan pursuant to Section 3.05. Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.05(b), so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.05(b), prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05(b). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05(b). (iv) In connection with any mandatory prepayments by the Borrower of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b), such prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata

45


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 115 of 211

basis to the then outstanding Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Loans are Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans. SECTION 2.06.

Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

The Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date and shall be reduced in the manner specified in Section 2.01. SECTION 2.07.

Repayment of Loans.

Subject to exchange pursuant to Section 2.01(c), the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan of such Lender on or before the Maturity Date. SECTION 2.08.

Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate, and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. (b) During the continuance of a Default, the Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of Loans hereunder (plus any past due amounts not constituting principal) at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws; provided that no interest at the Default Rate shall accrue or be payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Accrued and unpaid interest on such amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable in cash upon demand. (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. SECTION 2.09.

Additional Payments.

In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(h) and (i): (a) Commitment Payments. On the Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment payment equal to 2.25% of the total amount of the Commitments made available for borrowing under the Interim Order. On the Final Order Entry Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment payment (together with the previous commitment payment in this Section 2.09(a),

46


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 116 of 211

the “Commitment Payments”) equal to 2.25% of the total amount of the Commitments (less any such payment made pursuant to this Section 2.09(a) on the Interim Order Entry Date). (b) Unused Commitment Payment. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, an unused commitment payment (the “Unused Commitment Payment”) equal to 1.75% per annum on the actual daily amount by which the Commitments exceed the sum of the Outstanding Amount of the Loans. The Unused Commitment Payment shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable monthly in cash in arrears on the last Business Day of each month, commencing with the first full month to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for the DIP Credit Facility. The Unused Commitment Payment shall be calculated monthly in arrears. (c) Other Payments. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and such payments and fees as shall have been separately agreed (including pursuant to the Fee Letter) in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever (except as expressly agreed between the Borrower and the applicable Agent). SECTION 2.10.

Computation of Interest, Fees, and Other Payments.

All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the Prime Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days, or three hundred and sixty-six (366) days, as applicable, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees, interest, and other payments shall be made on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee or other payment hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. SECTION 2.11.

Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), as a non-fiduciary agent for the Borrower, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records (including the Register) of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of

47


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 117 of 211

manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Register, evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. (c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b) and Section 10.07(d), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. SECTION 2.12.

Payments Generally.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders, Existing L/C Issuer or L/C Participants to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 12:00 noon New York City time on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender, L/C Participant or the Existing L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s applicable Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 noon New York City time shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. (b) Except as otherwise provided herein, if any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

48


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 118 of 211

(c) Unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds, then: (i) if the Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the applicable Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and (ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. When such Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together with all accrued interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.12(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make available any payments or corresponding amounts to any Persons prior to the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such payments from any Borrower or Lender, as applicable. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (d) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

49


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 119 of 211

(e) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or purchase its participation. (f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. (g) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Existing L/C Issuer and the L/C Participants under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Existing L/C Issuer and the L/C Participants in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.04. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may (to the fullest extent permitted by mandatory provisions of applicable Law), but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders, the Existing L/C Issuer and the L/C Participants in accordance with such Person’s pro rata share of the sum of (a) the Outstanding Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b) the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender. SECTION 2.13.

Sharing of Payments.

If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. For avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement as in effect from time to time (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for

50


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 120 of 211

the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant permitted hereunder. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

SECTION 2.17.

Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: (i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01. (ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise), 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 that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or L/C Issuer against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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 that Defaulting Lender as a result of that

51


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 121 of 211

Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. (iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Unused Commitment Payment pursuant to Section 2.09(b) 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). (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be 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, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, whereupon that 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. Notwithstanding anything herein (including this Section 2.17), any L/C Participant that becomes a “Defaulting Lender” (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) will have its rights, including its rights to receive payment in respect of the Existing Letters of Credit, limited pursuant to the First Lien Credit Agreement. SECTION 2.18.

Super Priority Nature of Obligations and Liens.

The priority of the Obligations and the Liens of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on the Collateral owned by the Loan Parties shall be set forth in the Interim Order and the Final Order; such Obligations shall at all times constitute super-priority administrative expense claims, pursuant to section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, having priority over all administrative expenses of the kind specified in, or ordered pursuant to, sections 105, 326, 330, 331, 503(b), 506(c), 507(a), 507(b) or 726 or any other provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, subject only to the Carve-Out. Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, the Liens held by the Administrative Agent on the Collateral shall be for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. SECTION 2.19.

Payment of Obligations.

Upon the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of any of the Obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations without further application to or order of the Bankruptcy Court.

SECTION 2.20.

No Discharge; Survival of Claims.

Each of Parent and Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agrees that (a) the Obligations hereunder shall not be discharged by the entry of an order confirming a chapter 11 plan in any Chapter 11 Case (and Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, pursuant to Section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, hereby waives any such discharge) and (b) the superpriority administrative claim granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Interim Order and Final Order and described therein and the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Interim Order and Final Order and described therein shall not be affected in any manner by the entry of an order confirming a chapter 11 plan in any Chapter 11 Case. SECTION 2.21.

Release.

Each of Parent and Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby agrees to and acknowledges all releases granted in the Interim Order and the Final Order. SECTION 2.22. of Cash Collateral.

Waiver of any Priming Rights and Non-Consensual Use

Upon the Effective Date, and for so long as any Obligations shall be outstanding, each of Parent and Borrower, on behalf of itself, its Subsidiaries and its estate, hereby irrevocably waives (i) any right, pursuant to Sections 364(c) or 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, to grant any Lien of equal or greater priority than the Liens securing the Obligations, or to approve a claim of equal or greater priority than the Obligations, except as permitted under the Interim Order and Final Order, and (ii) any right, pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, to use Collateral proceeds or any other cash collateral (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code) in any manner not permitted by the Loan Documents or otherwise without the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders. ARTICLE III Taxes, Increased Costs Protection and Illegality SECTION 3.01.

Taxes.

(a) Except as provided in this Section 3.01, any and all payments made by or on account of the Borrower (the term Borrower under Article III being deemed to include any Subsidiary for whose account a Letter of Credit is issued) or any Guarantor under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, assessments, deductions, fees or withholdings (including backup withholding) or similar charges imposed by any Governmental Authority including interest, penalties and additions to tax (collectively “Taxes�), except as required by applicable Law. If the Borrower, any Guarantor or other applicable withholding agent shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Agent or any Lender, (A) to the extent the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the Borrower or Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01), each of such Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would 53


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 123 of 211

have received had no such deductions been made, (B) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions, (C) the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (D) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment (or, if receipts or evidence are not available within thirty (30) days, as soon as possible thereafter), if the Borrower or any Guarantor is the applicable withholding agent, shall furnish to such Agent or Lender (as the case may be) the original or a copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence reasonably acceptable to such Agent or Lender. (b) In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise, property, intangible or mortgage recording Taxes, or Taxes of a similar character, which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (including additions to tax, penalties and interest related thereto) excluding, in each case, such amounts that result from an Agent or Lender’s Assignment and Assumption, grant of a participation, transfer or assignment to or designation of a new applicable Lending Office or other office for receiving payments under any Loan Document (collectively, “Assignment Taxes”) to the extent such Assignment Taxes result from a connection that the Agent or Lender has with the taxing jurisdiction other than the connection arising out of the Loan Documents or the transactions therein, except for such Assignment Taxes resulting from assignment or participation that is requested or required in writing by the Borrower (all such non-excluded Taxes described in this Section 3.01(b) being hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). (c) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after the demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes payable by such Agent or such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from the payment to such Agent or such Lender and (ii) any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case 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 prepared in good faith by such Agent or Lender (or by an Agent on behalf of such Lender) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (d) Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any documentation prescribed by Law certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its inability to do so. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (d), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this clause (d) that such Lender is not legally able to deliver. Without limiting the foregoing:

54


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 124 of 211

(i) Each Lender that is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. (ii) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement whichever of the following is applicable: (A) two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, and such other documentation as required under the Code, (B) two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W8ECI (or any successor forms), (C) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (a) a United States Tax Compliance Certificate and (b) two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor form), or (D) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Lender, accompanied by a IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, IRS Form W-8IMY and/or any other required information from each beneficial owner, as applicable (provided that, if the Lender is a partnership, and one or more beneficial partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such partner). (iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and

55


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 125 of 211

withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.01(d)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date. (e) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.01, then such Lender will, if requested in writing by the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan affected by such event; provided that, in the judgment of such Lender, (i) such efforts are made on terms that cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage (including any unreimbursed costs or expenses) and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender, and (ii) such designation of another Lending Office would eliminate or reduce the amounts payable under Section 3.01; and, provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3.01(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.01. The Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. (f) If any Lender or Agent receives a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by the Borrower or any Guarantor pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall promptly remit such refund to the Borrower or such Guarantor (but only to the extent of indemnification or additional amounts paid by the Borrower or such Guarantor under this Section 3.01 with respect to Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund, net of any Taxes payable by any Agent or Lender on such interest); provided that the Borrower or such Guarantor, upon the request of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, agrees promptly to return such refund (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant taxing authority) to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to the indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such 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 section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other person. (g) For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” for purposes of this Section 3.01 shall include each L/C Issuer. SECTION 3.02.

Illegality.

If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate

56


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 126 of 211

Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 3.05. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. SECTION 3.03.

Inability to Determine Rates.

If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the applicable Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or that the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar, or other applicable, market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request, if applicable, into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. SECTION 3.04. Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Loans. (a) If any Lender reasonably determines that as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law, in each case after the Closing Date, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Loans or (as the case may be) issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01, or any Taxes excluded from the definition of Indemnified Taxes under exceptions (i) through (v) thereof or (ii) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)) and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining the Eurocurrency Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligations to make any Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, then from time to time within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender setting

57


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 127 of 211

forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for all purposes under this Agreement, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued; provided, that to the extent any increased costs or reductions are incurred by any Lender as a result of any requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or pursuant to Basel III after the Closing Date, then such Lender shall be compensated pursuant to this Section 3.04 only if such Lender imposes such charges under other syndicated credit facilities involving similarly situated borrowers that such Lender is a lender under. (b) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law regarding capital adequacy or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, in each case after the Closing Date, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such demand. (c) The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loan of the Borrower equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of any Eurocurrency Rate Loans of the Borrower, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

58

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation. (e) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.04, then such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan affected by such event; provided that, in the judgment of such Lender, (i) such efforts are made on terms that cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage (including any unreimbursed costs or expenses) and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender, and (ii) such designation of another Lending Office would eliminate or reduce the amounts payable under Section 3.04 and provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3.04(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b), (c) or (d). The Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. SECTION 3.05.

Funding Losses.

Upon written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense actually incurred by it as a result of: (a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan of the Borrower on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or (b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurocurrency Rate Loan of the Borrower on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; including any loss or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits) arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded. SECTION 3.06.

Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation.

(a) Any Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

59


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 129 of 211

(b) With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under Section 3.04, the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or, if applicable, to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.06(c) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested. (c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.06(b) hereof, such Lender’s applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans (or, if such conversion is not possible, repaid) on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by Section 3.02, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist: (i) to the extent that such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and (ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such Lender as Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans (if possible), and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans. (d) If any Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of any of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.06 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by other Lenders under the applicable Facility are outstanding, if applicable, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Eurocurrency Rate Loans under such Facility and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments for the applicable Facility.

SECTION 3.07.

Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances.

(a) If at any time any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at its sole cost and expense, on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person. (b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 3.07(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s applicable Commitment and outstanding Loans, and (ii) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans, Commitments and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Assumption and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender. In connection with any such replacement, if any Defaulting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Assumption reflecting such replacement within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption to such Defaulting Lender, then such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption without any action on the part of the Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 9.08.

Agents in Their Individual Capacities.

DBNY and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Borrower and its respective Affiliates as though DBNY were not the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, DBNY or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, DBNY and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include DBNY in its individual capacity. Any successor to DBNY as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall also have the rights attributed to DBNY under this paragraph. SECTION 9.09.

Successor Agents.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may appoint its successor, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or retiring Collateral Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent or collateral agent and/or Supplemental Agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following the retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s or the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such other

Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 175 of 211

instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to (a) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents or (b) otherwise ensure that Section 6.11 is satisfied, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. SECTION 9.10.

Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, including the Chapter 11 Cases, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower or the Collateral Agent) shall be (to the fullest extent permitted by mandatory provisions of applicable Law) entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h) and (i), 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, curator, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. SECTION 9.11.

Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

Each of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the L/C Participants irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent: (a) to enter into and sign for and on behalf of the Lenders as Secured Parties the Collateral Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and other Secured Parties; (b) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable) and the expiration or termination or cash collateralization (in a manner reasonably acceptable to the applicable L/C Issuer) of all Letters of Credit, (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is Disposed of in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than a Person required to grant a Lien to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents (or, if such transferee is a Person required to grant a Lien to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent on such asset, at the option of the applicable Loan Party, such Lien on such asset may still be released in connection with the transfer so long as (x) the transferee grants a new Lien to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent on such asset substantially concurrently with the transfer of such asset, (y) the transfer is between parties organized under the laws of different jurisdictions and at least one of such parties is a Foreign Subsidiary and (z) the priority of the new Lien is the same as that of the original Lien), (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders or (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (c) below; (c) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(i); and (d) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder; provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of the Credit Agreements. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.11. In each case as specified in this Section 9.11, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent will promptly (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such

107


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 177 of 211

documents as the Borrower may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.11. SECTION 9.12.

Other Agents; Managers.

None of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. SECTION 9.13.

Appointment of Supplemental Agents.

(a) It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent deems that by reason of any present or future Law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Agents”). (b) In the event that the Collateral Agent appoints a Supplemental Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Collateral Agent or such Supplemental Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article IX and of Sections 10.04 and 10.05 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Agent and all references therein to the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Collateral Agent and/or such Supplemental Agent, as the context may require. (c) Should any instrument in writing from any Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, such Loan Party shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments

108


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 178 of 211

promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. In case any Supplemental Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Agent. SECTION 9.14.

Withholding Tax Indemnity.

To the extent required by any Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equal to any applicable withholding Tax. If the IRS or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender under any Loan Document (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to Section 3.01 and Section 3.04 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrower and other Loan Parties to do so) for all amounts paid or payable by the Administrative Agent as Taxes, together with all reasonable expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.14. The agreements in this Section 9.14 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender� for purposes of this Section 9.14 shall include each L/C Issuer. ARTICLE X Miscellaneous SECTION 10.01. Amendments, Etc. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders, or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders, and such Loan Party and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that any amendment or waiver contemplated in clauses (g) or (i) below, shall only require the consent of such Loan Party or the Required Lenders, as applicable; provided further that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:

(a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of each Lender holding such Commitment (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent or of any Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender); (b) postpone any date scheduled for, or reduce or forgive the amount of, any payment of principal or interest under Section 2.07 or 2.08 without the written consent of each Lender holding the applicable Obligation (it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest; (c) (i) reduce or forgive the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan, or (subject to clause (iii) of the second proviso to this Section 10.01) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (or change the timing of payments of such fees or other amounts) without the written consent of each Lender holding such Loan, L/C Borrowing or to whom such fee or other amount is owed; provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate, (ii) reduce or forgive the principal of, or the rate of interest on, any L/C Borrowing or any fee in respect of Existing Letters of Credit without the written consent of the Existing L/C Issuer and the L/C Participants, or (iii) reduce or forgive the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any reimbursement obligation in respect of any DIP Letter of Credit, or reduce the Cash Collateral requirements in respect of DIP Letters of Credit, without the written consent of the Additional L/C Issuer; (d) change any provision of Section 8.04 or 10.01 or the definition of “Required Lenders,” or any other provision specifying the number of Lenders or portion of the Loans or Commitments required to take any action under the Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (e) other than in connection with a transaction permitted under Section 7.04 or 7.05, release all or substantially all of the Collateral in any transaction or series of related transactions, without the written consent of each Lender; (f) other than in connection with a transaction permitted under Section 7.04 or 7.05, release all or substantially all of the aggregate value of the Guaranty, without the written consent of each Lender; or (g) amend, waive or otherwise modify the portion of the definition of “Interest Period” that provides for one month intervals to automatically allow intervals in excess of six months, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; and provided, further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each affected L/C Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement or relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, in addition to the Lenders required

110


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 180 of 211

above, affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (iii) Section 10.07(i) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms materially and adversely affects any Defaulting Lender (if such Lender were not a Defaulting Lender) to a greater extent than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended, supplemented and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to be given or made upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual receipt by the relevant party hereto and (ii)(A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on behalf of the relevant party hereto; (B) if delivered by mail, four (4) Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile, when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by electronic mail (which form of delivery is subject to the provisions of Section 10.02(c)), when delivered; provided that notices and other communications to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and an L/C Issuer pursuant to Article II shall not be effective until actually received by such Person. In no event shall a voice mail message be effective as a notice, communication or confirmation hereunder. (b) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or other electronic communication. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on all Loan Parties, the Agents and the Lenders. (c) Reliance by Agents and Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. All telephonic notices to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. SECTION 10.03. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law. SECTION 10.04. Attorney Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication and execution, performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any amendment,

waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including all Financial Advisor costs of Houlihan Lokey and all Attorney Costs of Jones Day and one local counsel as reasonably necessary in each relevant jurisdiction material to the interests of the Lenders taken as a whole and one primary counsel and one local counsel for the Agents) and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, and including all respective Financial Advisor costs of Houlihan Lokey and all Attorney Costs of Jones Day (and one local counsel as reasonably necessary in each relevant jurisdiction material to the interests of the Lenders taken as a whole and one primary counsel and one local counsel for the Agents)). The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all reasonable search, filing, recording and title insurance charges and fees related thereto, and other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent or the Lenders. The agreements in this Section 10.04 shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations. All amounts due under this Section 10.04 shall be paid in accordance with the Interim Order or the Final Order, as applicable. If any Loan Party fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it hereunder or under any Loan Document, such amount may be paid on behalf of such Loan Party by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. SECTION 10.05. Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each AgentRelated Person, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates, and each of the officers, directors, employees, partners, agents, advisors and other representatives of each of the foregoing (collectively the “Indemnitees�) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs but limited in the case of legal fees and expenses to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to all Indemnitees taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel for all Indemnitees taken as a whole in each relevant jurisdiction that is material to the interests of the Lenders, and solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated affected Indemnitees) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment, Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom including any refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (c) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any property or facility currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Loan 113


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 183 of 211

Parties or any Subsidiary, or (d) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, AND IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities�); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any of its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, agents, advisors or other representatives, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (y) a material breach of any obligations under any Loan Document by such Indemnitee or of any of its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, advisors or other representatives, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement, nor shall any Indemnitee, Loan Party or any Subsidiary have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date) (other than, in the case of any Loan Party, in respect of any such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party and for any out-of-pocket expenses); it being agreed that this sentence shall not limit the indemnification obligations of Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, any Subsidiary of any Loan Party, its directors, stockholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents are consummated. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be paid within ten (10) days after written demand therefor (together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request); provided, however, that such Indemnitee shall promptly refund such amount to the extent that there is a final judicial or arbitral determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification rights with respect to such payment pursuant to the express terms of this Section 10.05. The agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. SECTION 10.06. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in 114


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 184 of 211

connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall, to the fullest extent possible under provisions of applicable Law, be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. SECTION 10.07. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (except as permitted by Section 7.04) and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Assignee pursuant to an assignment made in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(b) (such an assignee, an “Eligible Assignee”) and (A) in the case of any Assignee that, immediately prior to or upon giving effect to such assignment, is an Affiliated Lender, Section 10.07(l), (B) in the case of any Assignee that is Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, Section 10.07(m), or (C) in the case of any Assignee that, immediately prior to or upon giving effect to such assignment, is a Debt Fund Affiliate, Section 10.07(p), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(f), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(h) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(i) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no Lender may assign or transfer by participation any of its rights or obligations hereunder to (i) any Person that is a Defaulting Lender or a Disqualified Lender, (ii) a natural Person or (iii) to Parent, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries (except pursuant to Section 10.07(m)). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.07(f) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (“Assignees”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment (i) of all or any portion of a Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (ii) all or any portion of the Loans pursuant to Section 10.07(l) or Section 10.07(m); (ii)

Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of

115


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 185 of 211

the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000, and shall be in increments of an amount of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (provided that simultaneous assignments to or from two or more Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of determining compliance with this Section 10.07(b)(ii)(A)), unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; provided that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; (B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually), together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); provided that only one such fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments to or from two or more Approved Funds; and (C) other than in the case of assignments pursuant to Section 10.07(m), the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire (in which the Assignee shall designate one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Loan Parties and their Affiliates or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the Assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including federal and state securities laws) and all applicable tax forms required pursuant to Section 3.01(d). This paragraph (b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis among such Facilities, or from assigning its outstanding Loans without an assumption by the assignee thereof of its remaining Commitments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall

116


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 186 of 211

become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. (c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 10.07(d) and (e), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, (1) other than in connection with an assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(m), the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and (2) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause (c) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.07(f). (d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption, each Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption delivered to it, and each notice of cancellation of any Loans delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.07(m) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans, L/C Obligations (specifying the Unreimbursed Amounts or unreimbursed obligations in respect of DIP Letters of Credit), L/C Borrowings and the amounts due under Section 2.03 and Section 2.04, owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 10.07(d) and Section 2.11 shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related Treasury regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such Treasury regulations). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is an Affiliated Lender nor shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the aggregate amount of Loans held by Affiliated Lenders. Upon request by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall (i) promptly (and in any case, not less than 5 Business Days (or shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent) prior to the proposed effective date of any amendment, consent or waiver pursuant to Section 10.01) provide to the Administrative Agent, a complete list of all Affiliated Lenders holding Loans at such time and (ii) not less than 5 Business Days (or shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent) prior to the proposed effective date of 117


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 187 of 211

any amendment, consent or waiver pursuant to Section 10.01, provide to the Administrative Agent, a complete list of all Debt Fund Affiliates holding Loans at such time. (e) Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the Administrative Agent, if required, and, if required, each L/C Issuer to such assignment and any applicable tax forms required pursuant to Section 3.01(d), the Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (e). (f) Any Lender may at any time sell participations to any Person, subject to the proviso to Section 10.07(a) (each, a “Participant”), in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that requires the affirmative vote of such Lender. Subject to Section 10.07(g), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(c). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) 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 in connection with an audit or other proceeding to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

118


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 188 of 211

(g) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall have reasonable basis for withholding consent if such Participant after the sale would result in materially increased obligations to the Borrower at such time under Sections 3.01, 3.04 and/or 3.05. (h) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) such SPC and the applicable Loan or any applicable part thereof, shall be appropriately reflected in the Participant Register. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) an SPC shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and the limitations of such section), but neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement except in the case of Section 3.01 or 3.04, to the extent that the grant to the SPC was made with the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall have reasonable basis for withholding consent if an exercise by SPG immediately after the grant would result in materially increased indemnification obligations to the Borrower at such time), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (1) any Lender may in accordance with

119


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 189 of 211

applicable Law create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it and (2) any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise. (k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an L/C Issuer may, upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrower and, in the case of the Existing L/C Issuer, the L/C Participants, resign as an L/C Issuer; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30day period with respect to such resignation, the L/C Issuer shall have identified a successor L/C Issuer reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and, in the case of the Existing L/C Issuer, the L/C Participants whose reimbursement obligations represent at least a majority of the stated amount of the Existing Letters of Credit then outstanding, willing to accept its appointment as successor L/C Issuer. If an L/C Issuer resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the L/C Participants to fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). (l) Any Lender may, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement to a Person who is or will become, after such assignment, an Affiliated Lender through (x) Dutch auctions open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis or (y) open market purchases on a non-pro rata basis, in each case subject to the following limitations: (i) the assigning Lender and the Affiliated Lender purchasing such Lender’s Loans shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1 hereto (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption”); (ii) Affiliated Lenders will not receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and will not be permitted to attend or participate in conference calls or meetings attended solely by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II; (iii)

[Reserved]; and

(iv) as a condition to each assignment pursuant to this clause (l), the Administrative Agent shall have been provided a notice in the form of Exhibit L-2 to this Agreement in connection with each assignment to an Affiliated Lender or a Person that

120


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 190 of 211

upon effectiveness of such assignment would constitute an Affiliated Lender pursuant to which such Affiliated Lender shall waive any right to bring any action in connection with such Loans against the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such. Each Affiliated Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) if it acquires any Person who is also a Lender, and each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) if it becomes an Affiliated Lender.

(o) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees that and each Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption shall provide a confirmation that, if a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law shall be commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party at a time when such Lender is an Affiliated Lender, such Affiliated Lender irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Lender with respect to the Loans held by such Affiliated Lender in any manner in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, unless the Administrative Agent instructs such Affiliated Lender to vote, in which case such Affiliated Lender shall vote with respect to the Loans held by it as the Administrative Agent directs; provided that such Affiliated Lender shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent) in connection with any plan of reorganization to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a disproportionately adverse manner to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders. (p) Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.01 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, all Loans held by Debt Fund Affiliates may not account for more than 49.9% (pro rata among such Debt Fund Affiliates) of the Loans of consenting Lenders included in determining whether the Required Lenders have consented to any action pursuant to Section 10.01.

In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and publicly available information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions. For the purposes of this Section 10.08, “Information” means all information received from the Loan Parties relating to any Loan Party, its Affiliates or its Affiliates’ directors, managers, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors or agents, relating to Parent, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or its business, other than any such information that is publicly available to any Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08; provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential or is delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03 hereof.

Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 193 of 211

any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Agent, such Lender and such Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all Obligations owing to such Agent, such Lender and such Affiliates hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Agent and each Lender under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Agent and such Lender may have. SECTION 10.10. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of nonusurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate�). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. SECTION 10.11. Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission.

SECTION 10.14. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.14, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or the Existing L/C Issuer, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Each Lender that is subject to the USA Patriot Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower and each Guarantor that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each Guarantor, which information includes the name, address and tax identification number of the Borrower and the Guarantors and other information regarding the Borrower and the Guarantors that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and the Guarantors in accordance with the USA Patriot Act. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act and is effective as to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. SECTION 10.19. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. (a) In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that (i) the facilities provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Lenders, on the other hand, and the Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof), (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, each of the Agents and the Lenders is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person, (iii) none of the Agents or the Lenders has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether any Agent or Lender has advised or is currently advising the Borrower or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and none of the Agents or the Lenders has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the financing transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, (iv) the Agents and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from, and may conflict with, those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of the Agents or the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship and (v) the Agents and the Lenders have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate.

127


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 197 of 211

have against the Agents and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty under applicable law relating to agency and fiduciary obligations. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that each Lender and any affiliate thereof may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any of the Borrower, Parent, the Sponsor, any Affiliate of the foregoing or any other person or entity that may do business with or own securities of any of the foregoing, all as if such Lender or Affiliate thereof were not a Lender (or an agent or any other person with any similar role under the Facilities) and without any duty to account therefor to any other Lender, Parent, the Borrower, the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the foregoing. Each Lender and any affiliate thereof may accept fees and other consideration from Parent, the Borrower, any Sponsor or any Affiliate of the foregoing for services in connection with this Agreement, the Facilities or otherwise without having to account for the same to any other Lender, Parent, the Borrower, the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the foregoing. Some or all of the Lenders may have directly or indirectly acquired certain equity interests (including warrants) in Parent, the Borrower, the Sponsor or an Affiliate of the foregoing or may have directly or indirectly extended credit on a subordinated basis to Parent, the Borrower, the Sponsor or an Affiliate of the foregoing. Each party hereto, on its behalf and on behalf of its affiliates, acknowledges and waives the potential conflict of interest resulting from any such Lender or an Affiliate thereof holding disproportionate interests in the extensions of credit under the Facilities or otherwise acting as arranger or agent thereunder and such Lender or Affiliate thereof directly or indirectly holding equity interests in or subordinated debt issued by Sponsor, Borrower, the Sponsor or an Affiliate of the foregoing.

Conflicts with Other Loan Documents, Interim Order or Final Order. In the event there is a conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any other Loan Document (other than the Interim Order or Final Order), the terms of this Agreement shall control; provided that any provision of the Collateral Documents which imposes additional burdens on the Loan Parties or further restricts the rights of the Loan Parties or gives the Administrative Agent or Lenders additional rights, in each case, with respect to the Collateral, shall not be deemed to be in conflict or inconsistent with this Agreement and shall be given full force and effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Interim Order or the Final Order (whichever is then in effect), the provisions of the Interim Order or the Final Order (whichever is then in effect) shall govern and control. ARTICLE XI Guaranty SECTION 11.01. The Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally with the other Guarantors guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of (i) Title 11 of the United States Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the United States Code and (ii) any other Debtor Relief Laws) on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, the Borrower, and all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by any Loan Party under any Loan Document, strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations�). The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if the Borrower or other Guarantor(s) shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. SECTION 11.02. Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 11.01 shall constitute a guarantee of payment and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution,

129


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 199 of 211

release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Guarantor (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder (and each Guarantor hereby also waives to the extent permitted by Law any defenses it may have arising from the following), which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above: (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, to the extent permitted by Law, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted; (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or except as permitted pursuant to Section 11.10 any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; (iv) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, an L/C Issuer or any Lender or Agent as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or (v)

the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 11.10.

The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and, to the extent permitted by Law, all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantors waive, to the extent permitted by Law, any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guaranty or acceptance of this Guaranty, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guaranty, and all dealings between the Borrower and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty. This Guaranty shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured

130


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 200 of 211

Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding. SECTION 11.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article XI shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise. SECTION 11.04. Subrogation; Subordination. (a) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 11.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Borrower or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. (b) Each Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all debt liabilities and other obligations owed to such Guarantor by each other Loan Party (the “Subordinated Obligations”) to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 11.04(b). (i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall otherwise agree, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations, other than the filing of proofs of claim or other similar requirements to preserve its rights as creditor. (ii) In any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, including the Chapter 11 Cases, relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding (“Post Petition Interest”)) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations. (iii) After the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, each Guarantor shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Secured Parties 131

and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Agreement. (iv) After the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations (including any and all Post Petition Interest). SECTION 11.05. Remedies. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8.02) for purposes of Section 11.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 11.01. SECTION 11.06. Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article XI constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213. SECTION 11.07. Continuing Guaranty. The guarantee in this Article XI is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising. SECTION 11.08. General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 11.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 11.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the 132


Case 17-32660 Document 19-2 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 202 of 211

contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 11.11) that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. SECTION 11.09. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Guaranty, and agrees that none of any Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks. SECTION 11.10. Release of Guarantors. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, (i) all or substantially all of the Equity Interests or property of any Guarantor are sold or otherwise transferred (a “Transferred Guarantor”) to a person or persons, none of which is a Loan Party or (ii) any Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, such Transferred Guarantor shall, upon the consummation of such sale or transfer, be automatically released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 10.05 hereof) and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Collateral Document and, in the case of a sale of all or substantially all of the Equity Interests of the Transferred Guarantor, the pledge of such Equity Interests to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents shall be automatically released, and, so long as the Borrower shall have provided the Agents such certifications or documents as any Agent shall reasonably request, the Collateral Agent shall, at such Transferred Guarantor’s expense, take such actions as are necessary to effect each release described in this Section 11.10 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Collateral Documents. When all Commitments hereunder have terminated, and all Loans or other Obligations hereunder which are accrued and payable have been paid or satisfied, and no Letter of Credit remains outstanding (except any Letter of Credit the Outstanding Amount of which the Obligations related thereto has been Cash Collateralized or for which a backstop letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer has been put in place), the guarantees made herein shall terminate with respect to all Obligations, except with respect to Obligations that expressly survive such repayment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. SECTION 11.11. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 11.04.

The provisions of this Section 11.11 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

BACKSTOP PAYMENT LETTER Ameriforge Group, Inc. 13770 Industrial Road Houston, TX 77015 Attention: Thomas E. Giles

Re:

$70 million Senior Secured Term Loan Facility

Ladies and Gentlemen: We refer to the Restructuring Support Agreement, dated as of April 5, 2017 (including the exhibits, schedules and annexes thereto, the “RSA”), pursuant to which the parties hereto (the “Backstop Parties”, “we” or “us”) have agreed to provide a commitment to backstop the syndication of a senior secured term loan facility (the “Commitment”) in the aggregate principal amount of $70,000,000 (the “Exit Term Loan Facility”) to Ameriforge Group, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Borrower” or “you”), in accordance with the terms of the Exit Term Loan Facility Term Sheet. Terms used but not defined in this letter agreement (this “Letter”) shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the RSA. 1.

Compensation.

(a) Payments. As consideration for our commitments and agreements under the RSA with respect to the Exit Term Loan Facility, you shall pay the following amounts: (i) Backstop Payment. A backstop payment (the “Backstop Payment”) payable to us in a proportionate amount equal to 2.50% of the aggregate principal amount of each Backstop Party’s Backstopped Amount (the “Backstopped Amount”), as set forth on Annex I attached hereto. The Backstop Payment shall be payable in full on the Effective Date (as defined in the Plan). (b) Payments Nonrefundable. All payments hereunder, once paid, are nonrefundable and not creditable against any other amount payable in connection with any Exit Credit Document or otherwise, including without limitation, due to the non-occurrence of the Effective Date (as defined in the Plan). All amounts payable hereunder shall be earned on the date hereof, regardless of when payable hereunder and such amounts shall be payable in immediately available funds in U.S. dollars free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future applicable taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto (with appropriate gross-up for withholding taxes). Without limiting the foregoing, your obligation to pay the amounts hereunder, or to cause such amounts to be paid, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to reduction by way of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise. We reserve the right to allocate, in whole or in part, to our affiliates or any assignees of all or a portion of our Commitment certain amounts payable to us hereunder in such manner as we shall determine in our sole discretion. The Borrower acknowledges that this Letter is neither an expressed nor an implied commitment by us or any of their respective affiliates to act in any


Case 17-32660 Document 19-3 Filed in TXSB on 05/01/17 Page 3 of 13

capacity with respect to the Exit Term Loan Facility or to purchase or place any loans in connection therewith, which commitment, if any, is only set forth in the RSA. 2. Confidentiality. This Letter is exclusively for the information of the Board of Directors and senior management of the Borrower and may not be disclosed to any other person or entity, except with our prior written consent. 3. Notices. Notice given pursuant to any of the provisions of this Letter shall be in writing and shall be mailed or delivered (a) if to you, at the address set forth above and (b) if to the Backstop Parties, to each Backstop Party at the address set forth next to such Backstop Pary’s name on Annex I attached hereto. 4. Counterparts. This Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed will be an original, and all of which, when taken together, will constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Letter by facsimile or other electronic transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. 5. Approval Order. Promptly upon your receipt of an executed counterpart to this Letter from us, you hereby agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing the payments contemplated by this Letter and any necessary actions to effect such payments or implement this Letter without any further order of the Bankruptcy Court. 6. Assignment. You may not assign any of your respective rights, or be relieved of any of your respective obligations, under this Letter without our prior written consent, which may be given or withheld in our sole discretion (and any purported assignment without consent, at our sole option, shall be null and void). Any and all obligations of, and services to be provided by, us hereunder may be performed and any and all of our rights hereunder may be exercised by or through any of our affiliates or branches. 7. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Letter has been and is made solely for the benefit of you, us and our affiliates, and your, our and their respective successors and assigns, and nothing in this Letter, express or implied, is intended to confer or does confer on any other person or entity any rights or reason under or by reason of this Letter or your or our agreements contained herein. 8. Entire Agreement; Survival. The RSA incorporates the entire understanding of the parties and supersedes all previous agreements relating to the subject matter hereof should they exist. This Letter shall survive the termination of the RSA, the execution and delivery of the Exit Term Loan Facility Documents and the closing and funding of the Exit Term Loan Facility. 9. Choice of Law; Jurisdiction; Waivers. This Letter, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related thereto (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise), shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court or, if the Bankruptcy Court does not accept such jurisdiction, to the exclusive jurisdiction of each federal or state court sitting in Manhattan, New York in respect of any claim, suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the provisions of any Debt Financing Letter and irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such court and that service of process therein may be made by certified mail, postage prepaid, to your address set forth above.
