Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Series E Incremental Term Loan
On March 28, 2007, Lamar Media Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lamar Advertising Company, (the “Borrower”) entered into a Series E Incremental Loan Agreement (the “Series E Incremental Loan Agreement”) with the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein), the lenders named therein (collectively, the “Series E Incremental Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (“JPMorgan”). The Series E Incremental Loan Agreement provides for loan commitments by the Series E Incremental Lenders of $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Incremental Loans in a single series of term loans to be designated the “Series E Incremental Loans,” which $250.0 million was funded on March 28, 2007.
Amortization
The Series E Incremental Loans will begin amortizing in quarterly installments paid on each June 30, September 30, December 31 and March 31 as follows:
         
Principal Payment Date   Principal Amount
 
June 30, 2009— March 31, 2010
  $ 3,125,000  
June 30, 2010— March 31, 2011
  $ 6,250,000  
June 30, 2011— March 31, 2012
  $ 9,375,000  
June 30, 2012— March 31, 2013
  $ 43,750,000  
The Series E Incremental Loans will mature March 31, 2013.
Interest
Interest on borrowings under the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement is calculated, at the Borrower’s option, at a base rate equal to (a) either of the following rates, plus (b) the applicable spread above such base rate (as described below):
      with respect to base rate borrowings, the “Adjusted Base Rate,” which is equal to the higher of (i) the rate publicly announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as its prime lending rate and (ii) the applicable federal funds rate plus 0.5%; or
      with respect to eurodollar rate borrowings, the rate at which eurodollar deposits for one, two, three or six months (as selected by us), or nine or twelve months (with the consent of the lenders), are quoted on the Dow Jones Telerate Screen multiplied by the statutory reserve rate (determined based on maximum reserve percentages established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America).

 


 

The spread applicable to borrowings under the Incremental Loan Agreement is determined by reference to our trailing leverage ratio as follows.
                 
Range
       
of
  Base Rate Series E   Eurodollar Series E
Total Debt Ratio
  Incremental Loans   Incremental Loans
 
Greater than or equal to 5.00 to 1
    0.250 %     1.250 %
Less than 5.00 to 1 and greater than or equal to 3.00 to 1
    0.000 %     1.000 %
Less than 3.00 to 1 and greater than or equal to 2.50 to 1
    0.000 %     0.875 %
Less than 2.50
    0.000 %     0.750 %
Series F Incremental Term Loan
On March 28, 2007, Lamar Media Corp. also entered into a Series F Incremental Loan Agreement (the “Series F Incremental Loan Agreement”) with the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein), the lenders named therein (collectively, the “Series F Incremental Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (“JPMorgan”). The Series F Incremental Loan Agreement provides for loan commitments by the Series F Incremental Lenders of $325.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Incremental Loans in a single series of term loans to be designated the “Series F Incremental Loans,” which $325.0 million was funded on March 28, 2007.
Amortization
The Series F Incremental Loans will begin amortizing in quarterly installments paid on each June 30, September 30, December 31, and March 31 as follows:
         
Principal Payment Date   Principal Amount
 
June 30, 2009— December 31, 2013
  $ 812,500  
March 31, 2014
  $ 309,562,500  
The Series F Incremental Loans will mature March 31, 2014.

 


 

Interest
Interest on borrowings under the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement is calculated, at the Borrower’s option, at a base rate equal to either of the following rates:
      with respect to base rate borrowings, the “Adjusted Base Rate” (defined as the higher of (i) the rate publicly announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as its prime lending rate and (ii) the applicable federal funds rate plus 0.5%) plus a spread of 0.5%; or
      with respect to eurodollar rate borrowings, the rate at which eurodollar deposits for one, two, three or six months (as selected by us), or nine or twelve months (with the consent of the lenders), are quoted on the Dow Jones Telerate Screen multiplied by the statutory reserve rate (determined based on maximum reserve percentages established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America) plus a spread of 1.50%.

ANNEX 1
[Form of Opinion of Counsel to the Credit Parties]
March                     , 2007
To the Series E Incremental Lenders
 and the Administrative Agent
 party to the Series E Incremental Loan
 Agreement and Credit Agreement
 referred to below
Ladies and Gentlemen:
          We have acted as counsel to Lamar Advertising Company (“Holdings”), Lamar Media Corp. (herein the “Company”) and the Subsidiary Guarantors, in connection with the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement dated as of March ___, 2007 (the “Series E Incremental Loan Agreement”) between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors named therein, the Series E Incremental Lenders party thereto (the “Series E Incremental Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Administrative Agent”), which Series E Incremental Loan Agreement is being entered into pursuant to Section 2.01(c) of the Credit Agreement dated as of September 30, 2005 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) between the Company, the Subsidiary Borrowers party thereto, the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent. Terms defined in the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement and in the Credit Agreement are used herein as defined therein. This opinion is being delivered pursuant to Article IV(b) of the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement.
          In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have examined the following agreements, instruments and other documents:
  (a)   the Credit Agreement;
 
  (b)   the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement (together with the Credit Agreement, the “Credit Documents”); and
 
  (c)   such records of the Credit Parties and such other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below, including information listed on Schedule A regarding the merging and/or consolidation of certain subsidiaries.
Form of Opinion of Counsel to Credit Parties


 

- 2 -

          In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. When relevant facts were not independently established, we have relied upon statements or certificates of governmental officials and upon representations made in or pursuant to the Credit Documents and certificates and/or opinions of appropriate representatives of the Credit Parties.
          In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed, with respect to all of the documents referred to in this opinion letter, that (except, to the extent set forth in the opinions expressed below, as to the Credit Parties):
  (i)   such documents have been duly authorized by, have been duly executed and delivered by, and constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of, all of the parties to such documents;
 
  (ii)   all signatories to such documents have been duly authorized; and
 
  (iii)   all of the parties to such documents are duly organized and validly existing and have the power and authority (corporate or other) to execute, deliver and perform such documents.
          References to “our knowledge” or equivalent words means the actual knowledge of the lawyers in this firm responsible for preparing this opinion after such inquiry as they deemed appropriate, including inquiry of such other lawyers in the firm and review of such files of the firm as they have identified as being reasonably likely to have or contain information not otherwise known to them needed to support the opinions set forth below. References to “after due inquiry” or equivalent words means after inquiry of the Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel of Holdings, and of lawyers in the firm reasonably likely to have knowledge of the matter to which such reference relates.
          Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject also to the comments and qualifications set forth below, and having considered such questions of law as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below, we are of the opinion that:
     1. Holdings is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each Subsidiary of the Company that is a Credit Party is a corporation, partnership or other entity duly organized, validly existing and, to our knowledge, in good standing

under the laws of the state indicated opposite its name in Schedule 4.14 to the Credit Agreement.
     2. Each Credit Party has all requisite corporate or other power to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Credit Documents to which it is a party.
     3. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of each Credit Document to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on the part of such Credit Party.
     4. Each Credit Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Credit Party party thereto.
     5. Under Louisiana conflict of laws principles, the stated choice of New York law to govern the Credit Documents will be honored by the courts of the State of Louisiana and the Credit Documents will be construed in accordance with, and will be treated as being governed by, the law of the State of New York, except to the extent the result obtained from applying New York law would be contrary to the public policy of the State of Louisiana, provided, however, that we have no knowledge of any Louisiana public policy interest which could reasonably be expected to result in the application of Louisiana law to the Credit Documents. However, if the Credit Documents were stated to be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Louisiana, or if a Louisiana court were to apply the law of the State of Louisiana to the Credit Documents, each Credit Document would nevertheless constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Credit Party party thereto, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally and except as the enforceability of the Credit Documents is subject to the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and the corresponding discretion of the court before which the proceedings may be brought, including, without limitation, (a) the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy and (b) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.
     6. No authorization, approval or consent of, and no filing or registration with, any governmental or regulatory authority or agency of the United States of America or the State of Louisiana is required on the part of any Credit Party for the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of any of the Credit Documents or for the borrowings by the Company under the Credit Agreement.

     7. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of, and the consummation by each Credit Party of the transactions contemplated by, the Credit Documents to which such Credit Party is a party do not and will not (a) violate any provision of the charter or by-laws of any Credit Party, (b) violate any applicable Louisiana or federal law, rule or regulation, (c) violate any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority or agency or any arbitral award applicable to the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries of which we have knowledge (after due inquiry) or (d) based on an opinion of the General Counsel of the Company, result in a breach of, constitute a default under, require any consent under, or result in the acceleration or required prepayment of any indebtedness pursuant to the terms of, any agreement or instrument of which we have knowledge (after due inquiry) and to which the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them is bound or to which any of them is subject, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property of any Credit Party pursuant to, the terms of any such agreement or instrument.
     8. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.06 to the Credit Agreement, we have no knowledge (after due inquiry) of any legal or arbitral proceedings, or any proceedings by or before any governmental or regulatory authority or agency, pending or threatened against or affecting the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties that, if adversely determined, could have a Material Adverse Effect.
     9. The obligations of the Credit Parties under the Credit Documents constitute Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the Senior Subordinated Notes Indentures) for all purposes of the Senior Subordinated Notes Indentures.
     10. The Credit Agreement and the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement will constitute the “Senior Credit Facility” under and for all purposes of each of the Senior Subordinated Notes Indentures.
     The foregoing opinions are subject to the following comments and qualifications:
     (A) The enforceability of Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents) may be limited by (i) laws rendering unenforceable indemnification contrary to Federal or state securities laws and the public policy underlying such laws and (ii) laws limiting the enforceability of provisions exculpating or exempting a party, or requiring indemnification of a party for, liability for its own action or inaction, to the extent the action or inaction involves gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or unlawful conduct.
Form of Opinion of Counsel to Credit Parties


 

- 5 -

     (B) The enforceability of provisions in the Credit Documents to the effect that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing may be limited under certain circumstances.
     (C) We express no opinion as to (i) the effect of the laws of any jurisdiction in which any Lender is located (other than the State of Louisiana) that limits the interest, fees or other charges such Lender may impose for the loan or use of money or other credit, (ii) the last sentence of Section 2.16(d) of the Credit Agreement, (iii) Section 3.06 or 3.09 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents) and (iv) the first sentence of Section 10.09(b) of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents), insofar as such sentence relates to the subject matter jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York to adjudicate any controversy related to the Credit Documents.
     (D) We express no opinion as to the applicability to the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor (or the enforceability of such obligations) of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other provision of law relating to fraudulent conveyances, transfers or obligations or of the provisions of the law of the jurisdiction of incorporation of any Subsidiary Guarantor restricting dividends, loans or other distributions by a corporation for the benefit of its stockholders.
     (E) The opinions expressed herein as of the date hereof, and except as may otherwise be provided herein, we have no obligation to advise you as to any change in the matters, factual, legal or otherwise, set forth herein after the date of this letter. Without limitation of the foregoing, our opinions in paragraphs 9 and 10 are limited to the Credit Documents and Senior Subordinated Notes Indentures as in effect as of the date hereof.
          Partners or Associates of this Firm are members of the Bar of the State of Louisiana and we do not hold ourselves out as being conversant with the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the United States of America and the State of Louisiana, and we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the United States of America, the State of Louisiana and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
          At the request of our clients, this opinion letter is, pursuant to Section (b) of Article IV of the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement, provided to you by us in our capacity as counsel to the Credit Parties and may not be relied upon by any Person for any purpose other than in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement without, in each instance, our prior written consent.
Very truly yours,

To the Series E Incremental Lenders

 Agreement and Credit Agreement
 referred to below
Ladies and Gentlemen:
          We have acted as special New York counsel to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, under the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement dated as of March ___, 2007 (the “Series E Incremental Loan Agreement”) between Lamar Media Corp. (the “Company”), the Subsidiary Guarantors named therein (together with the Company, Lamar Advertising Company, Lamar Advertising of Puerto Rico, Inc. and Lamar Transit Advertising Canada Ltd., the “Credit Parties”), the Series E Incremental Lenders party thereto (the “Series E Incremental Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”), which Series E Incremental Loan Agreement is being entered into pursuant to Section 2.01(c) of the Credit Agreement dated as of September 30, 2005 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated as of October 5, 2006, Amendment No. 2 thereto dated as of December 11, 2006 and Amendment No. 3 thereto dated as of March ___, 2007, the “Credit Agreement”) between the Company, the Subsidiary Borrowers party thereto, the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise provided herein, terms defined in the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement and in the Credit Agreement are used herein as defined therein. This opinion is being delivered pursuant to clause (c) of Article IV of the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement.

  (a)   the Credit Agreement; and
 
  (b)   the Series E Incremental Loan Agreement (together with the Credit Agreement, the “Credit Documents”).
          In our examination, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity with authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies and, in the case of documents executed prior to the date of this opinion letter, that there has been no amendment, waiver or other modification (whether in writing, orally or by

course of conduct, course of dealing, course of performance or otherwise) except as expressly referred to herein. When relevant facts were not independently established, we have relied upon representations made in or pursuant to the Credit Documents.
          In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed, with respect to all of the documents referred to in this opinion letter, that:
  (i)   such documents have been duly authorized by, have been duly executed and delivered by, and (except to the extent set forth in the opinions below as to the Credit Parties) constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of, all of the parties to such documents;
 
  (ii)   all signatories to such documents have been duly authorized;
 
  (iii)   all of the parties to such documents are duly organized and validly existing and have the power and authority (corporate or other) to execute, deliver and perform such documents; and

          Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject also to the comments and qualifications set forth below, and having considered such questions of law as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below, we are of the opinion that each of the Credit Documents constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Credit Party party thereto, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, and to the possible judicial application of foreign laws or governmental action affecting the rights of creditors generally, and except as the enforceability of the Credit Documents is subject to the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including without limitation (a) the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy and (b) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.
          The foregoing opinions are subject to the following comments and qualifications:
     (A) The enforceability of Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents) may be limited by laws limiting the enforceability of provisions exculpating or exempting a party, or requiring indemnification of a party for, liability for its own action or inaction, to the extent the action or inaction involves gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or unlawful conduct.

     (B) Clause (iii) of the second sentence of Section 3.02 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents) may not be enforceable to the extent that the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) are materially modified.
     (C) The enforceability of provisions in the Credit Documents to the effect that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing may be limited under certain circumstances.
     (D) We express no opinion as to (i) the effect of the laws of any jurisdiction in which any Lender is located (other than the State of New York) that limit the interest, fees or other charges such Lender may impose for the loan or use of money or other credit, (ii) the last sentence of Section 2.16(d) of the Credit Agreement, (iii) Section 3.06 or 3.09 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents), (iv) the first sentence of Section 10.09(b) of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents), insofar as such sentence relates to the subject-matter jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York to adjudicate any controversy related to the Credit Documents and (v) the waiver of inconvenient forum set forth in the last sentence of Section 10.09(c) of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provision in any of the other Credit Documents) with respect to proceedings in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

          In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. When relevant facts were not independently established, we have relied upon statements or certificates of governmental officials and upon representations made in or pursuant to the Credit Documents and certificates and/or opinions of appropriate representatives of the Credit Parties.
          In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed, with respect to all of the documents referred to in this opinion letter, that (except, to the extent set forth in the opinions expressed below, as to the Credit Parties):
  (i)   such documents have been duly authorized by, have been duly executed and delivered by, and constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of, all of the parties to such documents;
 
  (ii)   all signatories to such documents have been duly authorized; and
 
  (iii)   all of the parties to such documents are duly organized and validly existing and have the power and authority (corporate or other) to execute, deliver and perform such documents.
          References to “our knowledge” or equivalent words means the actual knowledge of the lawyers in this firm responsible for preparing this opinion after such inquiry as they deemed appropriate, including inquiry of such other lawyers in the firm and review of such files of the firm as they have identified as being reasonably likely to have or contain information not otherwise known to them needed to support the opinions set forth below. References to “after due inquiry” or equivalent words means after inquiry of the Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel of Holdings, and of lawyers in the firm reasonably likely to have knowledge of the matter to which such reference relates.

     1. Holdings is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each Subsidiary of the Company that is a Credit Party is a corporation, partnership or other entity duly organized, validly existing and, to our knowledge, in good standing under the laws of the state indicated opposite its name in Schedule 4.14 to the Credit Agreement.

     2. Each Credit Party has all requisite corporate or other power to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Credit Documents to which it is a party.
     3. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of each Credit Document to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on the part of such Credit Party.
     4. Each Credit Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Credit Party party thereto.
     5. Under Louisiana conflict of laws principles, the stated choice of New York law to govern the Credit Documents will be honored by the courts of the State of Louisiana and the Credit Documents will be construed in accordance with, and will be treated as being governed by, the law of the State of New York, except to the extent the result obtained from applying New York law would be contrary to the public policy of the State of Louisiana, provided, however, that we have no knowledge of any Louisiana public policy interest which could reasonably be expected to result in the application of Louisiana law to the Credit Documents. However, if the Credit Documents were stated to be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Louisiana, or if a Louisiana court were to apply the law of the State of Louisiana to the Credit Documents, each Credit Document would nevertheless constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Credit Party party thereto, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally and except as the enforceability of the Credit Documents is subject to the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and the corresponding discretion of the court before which the proceedings may be brought, including, without limitation, (a) the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy and (b) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.
     6. No authorization, approval or consent of, and no filing or registration with, any governmental or regulatory authority or agency of the United States of America or the State of Louisiana is required on the part of any Credit Party for the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of any of the Credit Documents or for the borrowings by the Company under the Credit Agreement.
     7. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of, and the consummation by each Credit Party of the transactions contemplated by, the Credit Documents to which such Credit Party is a party do not and will not (a) violate any provision of the charter or by-laws of any Credit Party, (b) violate any applicable

Louisiana or federal law, rule or regulation, (c) violate any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority or agency or any arbitral award applicable to the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries of which we have knowledge (after due inquiry) or (d) based on an opinion of the General Counsel of the Company, result in a breach of, constitute a default under, require any consent under, or result in the acceleration or required prepayment of any indebtedness pursuant to the terms of, any agreement or instrument of which we have knowledge (after due inquiry) and to which the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them is bound or to which any of them is subject, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property of any Credit Party pursuant to, the terms of any such agreement or instrument.
     8. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.06 to the Credit Agreement, we have no knowledge (after due inquiry) of any legal or arbitral proceedings, or any proceedings by or before any governmental or regulatory authority or agency, pending or threatened against or affecting the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties that, if adversely determined, could have a Material Adverse Effect.
     9. The obligations of the Credit Parties under the Credit Documents constitute Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the Senior Subordinated Notes Indentures) for all purposes of the Senior Subordinated Notes Indentures.
     10. The Credit Agreement and the Series F Incremental Loan Agreement will constitute the “Senior Credit Facility” under and for all purposes of each of the Senior Subordinated Notes Indentures.
     The foregoing opinions are subject to the following comments and qualifications:
     (A) The enforceability of Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents) may be limited by (i) laws rendering unenforceable indemnification contrary to Federal or state securities laws and the public policy underlying such laws and (ii) laws limiting the enforceability of provisions exculpating or exempting a party, or requiring indemnification of a party for, liability for its own action or inaction, to the extent the action or inaction involves gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or unlawful conduct.
     (B) The enforceability of provisions in the Credit Documents to the effect that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing may be limited under certain circumstances.

     (C) We express no opinion as to (i) the effect of the laws of any jurisdiction in which any Lender is located (other than the State of Louisiana) that limits the interest, fees or other charges such Lender may impose for the loan or use of money or other credit, (ii) the last sentence of Section 2.16(d) of the Credit Agreement, (iii) Section 3.06 or 3.09 of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents) and (iv) the first sentence of Section 10.09(b) of the Credit Agreement (and any similar provisions in any of the other Credit Documents), insofar as such sentence relates to the subject matter jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York to adjudicate any controversy related to the Credit Documents.
     (D) We express no opinion as to the applicability to the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor (or the enforceability of such obligations) of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other provision of law relating to fraudulent conveyances, transfers or obligations or of the provisions of the law of the jurisdiction of incorporation of any Subsidiary Guarantor restricting dividends, loans or other distributions by a corporation for the benefit of its stockholders.

          At the request of our clients, this opinion letter is, pursuant to Section (b) of Article IV of the Series F Incremental Loan Agreement, provided to you by us in our capacity as counsel to the Credit Parties and may not be relied upon by any Person for any purpose other than in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement without, in each instance, our prior written consent.
