 C: 
 3 
 

 

(a)                WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE MATTERS SPECIFIED IN CLAUSE (B) BELOW, ANY CLAIM WILL BE DETERMINED BY A GENERAL REFERENCE PROCEEDING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTIONS 638 THROUGH 645.2. EACH LOAN PARTY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER INTEND THIS GENERAL REFERENCE AGREEMENT TO BE SPECIFICALLY ENFORCEABLE IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTION 638. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS AMENDMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, VENUE FOR THE REFERENCE PROCEEDING WILL BE IN THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE COUNTY OR DISTRICT WHERE VENUE IS OTHERWISE APPROPRIATE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

 

(b)                THE FOLLOWING MATTERS SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO A GENERAL REFERENCE PROCEEDING: (A) NON-JUDICIAL FORECLOSURE OF ANY SECURITY INTERESTS IN REAL OR PERSONAL PROPERTY; (B) EXERCISE OF SELF-HELP REMEDIES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SET-OFF); (C) APPOINTMENT OF A RECEIVER; AND (D) TEMPORARY, PROVISIONAL OR ANCILLARY REMEDIES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WRITS OF ATTACHMENT, WRITS OF POSSESSION, TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDERS OR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTIONS). NEITHER THIS AMENDMENT NOR THE CREDIT AGREEMENT LIMITS THE RIGHT OF ANY LOAN PARTY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER TO EXERCISE OR OPPOSE ANY OF THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES DESCRIBED IN CLAUSES (A)(D) OF THIS SECTION AND ANY SUCH EXERCISE OR OPPOSITION DOES NOT WAIVE THE RIGHT OF ANY SUCH LOAN PARTY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR SUCH LENDER TO A REFERENCE PROCEEDING PURSUANT TO THIS AMENDMENT OR THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.

 

(c)                UPON THE WRITTEN REQUEST OF THE LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER, THE LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS SHALL SELECT A SINGLE REFEREE, WHO SHALL BE A RETIRED JUDGE OR JUSTICE. IF THE LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS DO NOT AGREE UPON A REFEREE WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS OF SUCH WRITTEN REQUEST, THEN, THE LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER, MAY REQUEST THE COURT TO APPOINT A REFEREE PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTION 640(B).

 

(d)                EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AMENDMENT OR THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE REFEREE SHALL DETERMINE THE MANNER IN WHICH THE REFERENCE PROCEEDING IS CONDUCTED, INCLUDING THE TIME AND PLACE OF HEARINGS, THE ORDER OF PRESENTATION OF EVIDENCE, AND ALL OTHER QUESTIONS THAT ARISE WITH RESPECT TO THE COURSE OF THE REFERENCE PROCEEDING. ALL PROCEEDINGS AND HEARINGS CONDUCTED BEFORE THE REFEREE, EXCEPT FOR TRIAL, SHALL BE CONDUCTED WITHOUT A COURT REPORTER, EXCEPT WHEN THE LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER SO REQUESTS, A COURT REPORTER WILL BE USED AND THE REFEREE WILL BE PROVIDED A COURTESY COPY OF THE TRANSCRIPT. THE PARTY MAKING SUCH REQUEST SHALL HAVE THE OBLIGATION TO ARRANGE FOR AND PAY COSTS OF THE COURT REPORTER, PROVIDED THAT SUCH COSTS, ALONG WITH THE REFEREE’S FEES, SHALL ULTIMATELY BE BORNE BY THE PARTY WHO DOES NOT PREVAIL, AS DETERMINED BY THE REFEREE.

 

(e)                THE REFEREE MAY REQUIRE ONE OR MORE PREHEARING CONFERENCES. THE LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS SHALL BE ENTITLED TO DISCOVERY, AND THE REFEREE SHALL OVERSEE DISCOVERY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RULES OF DISCOVERY, AND MAY ENFORCE ALL DISCOVERY ORDERS IN THE SAME MANNER AS ANY TRIAL COURT JUDGE IN PROCEEDINGS AT LAW IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. THE REFEREE SHALL APPLY THE RULES OF EVIDENCE APPLICABLE TO PROCEEDINGS AT LAW IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND SHALL DETERMINE ALL ISSUES IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAW. THE REFEREE SHALL BE EMPOWERED TO ENTER EQUITABLE AS WELL AS LEGAL RELIEF AND RULE ON ANY MOTION WHICH WOULD BE AUTHORIZED IN A TRIAL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, MOTIONS FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT OR SUMMARY JUDGMENT. THE REFEREE SHALL REPORT THE REFEREE’S DECISION, WHICH REPORT SHALL ALSO INCLUDE FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW. THE REFEREE SHALL ISSUE A DECISION AND PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, SECTION 644, THE REFEREE’S DECISION SHALL BE ENTERED BY THE COURT AS A JUDGMENT IN THE SAME MANNER AS IF THE ACTION HAD BEEN TRIED BY THE COURT. THE FINAL JUDGMENT OR ORDER FROM ANY APPEALABLE DECISION OR ORDER ENTERED BY THE REFEREE SHALL BE FULLY APPEALABLE AS IF IT HAS BEEN ENTERED BY THE COURT.

 

 

 

 C: 
 4 
 

 

(f)                 THE LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS RECOGNIZE AND AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS RESOLVED IN A GENERAL REFERENCE PROCEEDING PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 9 WILL BE DECIDED BY A REFEREE AND NOT BY A JURY. AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR OWN CHOICE, EACH PARTY HERETO KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT AGREES THAT THIS REFERENCE PROVISION SHALL APPLY TO ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THEM THAT ARISES OUT OF OR IS RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

 

10.       RELEASE. EACH LOAN PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS WOULD NOT ENTER INTO THIS AMENDMENT WITHOUT SUCH LOAN PARTY’S ASSURANCE HEREUNDER. EXCEPT FOR THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREAFTER UNDER THIS AMENDMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY ABSOLUTELY DISCHARGES AND RELEASES THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS, ANY PERSON THAT HAS OBTAINED ANY INTEREST FROM THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT AND EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S AND THE LENDER’S FORMER AND PRESENT PARTNERS, STOCKHOLDERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNEES, AFFILIATES, AGENTS AND ATTORNEYS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “RELEASEES”) FROM ANY KNOWN OR UNKNOWN CLAIMS WHICH ANY LOAN PARTY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOW HAS AS OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT DATE AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER RELEASEE OF ANY NATURE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY BORROWER OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, ANY DEALINGS WITH SUCH LOAN PARTY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY TRANSACTIONS PURSUANT THERETO OR CONTEMPLATED THEREBY, THE COLLATERAL (OR ANY OTHER COLLATERAL OF ANY PERSON THAT PREVIOUSLY SECURED OR NOW OR HEREAFTER SECURES ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS), OR ANY NEGOTIATIONS FOR ANY MODIFICATIONS TO OR FORBEARANCE OR CONCESSIONS WITH RESPECT TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN EACH CASE INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS THAT SUCH LOAN PARTY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, SUCCESSORS, COUNSEL AND ADVISORS MAY IN THE FUTURE DISCOVER THEY WOULD HAVE NOW HAD AS OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT DATE IF THEY HAD KNOWN FACTS NOT NOW KNOWN TO THEM, AND IN EACH CASE WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT, IN TORT OR PURSUANT TO ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY.

 

11.       Miscellaneous.

 

(a)               Counterparts; Integration. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Amendment, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Amendment shall become effective as provided in Section 3 hereof and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.

This Amendment and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding of the parties hereto and thereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and any prior agreements, whether written or oral, with respect thereto are superseded hereby.

 

(c)                Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Amendment held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

 

 

 C: 
 5 
 

 

(d)                Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted under the Credit Agreement.

 

(e)                Construction. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Amendment shall not be construed more favorably in favor of any party hereto based upon which party drafted the same, it being acknowledged that all parties hereto contributed substantially to the negotiation of this Amendment.

 

(f)                 Incorporation. This Amendment shall form a part of the Credit Agreement, and all references to the Credit Agreement shall mean that document as hereby modified. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

 

(g)                No Prejudice; No Impairment. This Amendment shall not prejudice, limit, restrict or impair any rights, privileges, powers or remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents as hereby amended. The Administrative Agent and each Lender reserves, without limitation, all rights which the Administrative Agent and each Lender has now or in the future against any guarantor or endorser of the Obligations.
