This Amendment to Credit Agreement ("Amendment") dated as of the 19th
day of July, 1994 among K. Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. ("Company") Hovnanian
Enterprises, Inc. ("Hovnanian"), the subsidiaries of Hovnanian listed on the
signature pages of this Amendment (each, together with Hovnanian, a
"Guarantor" and collectively the "Guarantors") and Midlantic National Bank,
Chemical Bank, United Jersey Bank (formerly known as United Jersey
Bank/Central, N.A.), NBD Bank, N.A., PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC"),
Meridian Bank ("Meridian"), NationsBank of Virginia, N.A. ("NationsBank"),
First National Bank of Boston ("Bank of Boston") and Continental Bank
("Continental") (each such banking institution individually referred to as a
"Bank" and collectively as the "Banks"), and Midlantic National Bank, as
Agent for the Banks ("Agent").
BACKGROUND
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of July 30,
1993, among the Company, certain Guarantors named therein or thereafter
added, the Banks named therein, and the Agent (as the same may be amended or
supplemented from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), the Banks agreed to
make certain loans and extend credit to the Company.
WHEREAS, the performance by the Company of its obligations under the
Credit Agreement and the Notes is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the
Guarantors pursuant to the Guaranties of the Guarantors to each of the Banks
(collectively, the "Guaranties");
WHEREAS, pursuant and subject to the terms of Section 8.7(c) of the
Credit Agreement, an additional banking institution may join in and assume a
Revolving Credit Commitment under the Credit Agreement and thereby become an
Additional Bank thereunder;
WHEREAS, pursuant to a certain Joinder Agreement and related agreements
dated December 8, 1993, PNC joined in the Revolving Credit Commitment and has
thereby become an Additional Bank thereunder;
WHEREAS, pursuant to a certain Joinder Agreement ("Meridian Joinder")
and related agreements dated January 26, 1994, Meridian joined in the
Revolving Credit Commitment and has thereby become an Additional Bank
thereunder;
WHEREAS, NationsBank, Bank of Boston, and Continental (each individually
referred to as a "Joining Bank" and collectively as the "Joining Banks")
desire and are willing to join in and assume a Revolving Credit Commitment
under and thereby become Additional Banks under the Credit Agreement, and the
Company, the Guarantors, the Banks and the Agent have approved such joinder
by the Joining Banks; and
WHEREAS, the Company, the Guarantors, the Banks and the Agent desire to
further modify the provisions of the Credit Agreement under the terms and
conditions set forth in this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, with the foregoing Background incorporated by reference
and made part hereof, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto
promise and agree as follows:
1. All terms used herein as defined terms and not herein defined shall
have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.
2. Each Joining Bank hereby joins in, and assumes a Revolving Credit
Commitment under, the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) and thereby
becomes an Additional Bank thereunder. Each Joining Bank shall thereby for
all purposes be hereinafter considered a Bank under the Credit Agreement,
agrees to be bound by its respective Revolving Credit Commitment set forth
herein and the terms of the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby), and shall
thereby obtain all benefits and rights of and agree to perform all duties and
obligations of a Bank thereunder.
3. By reason of the joinder of Joining Banks as Banks under the Credit
Agreement, and the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments (as
contemplated by Paragraph 9 below of this Amendment), Second Replacement
Schedule 9 (attached to the Meridian Joinder) to the Credit Agreement is
hereby replaced and superseded in its entirety by Third Replacement Schedule
9 attached to this Amendment. All references in the Credit Agreement to
Schedule 9 shall hereinafter be deemed for all purposes to refer to Third
Replacement Schedule 9.
4. Contemporaneously herewith, the Company shall execute and deliver to
each Joining Bank a Revolving Credit Note in the amount of its respective
Revolving Credit Commitment and the Guarantors shall each execute and deliver
their Guaranty to each Joining Bank. The Company shall also then execute and
deliver to each Bank (other than the Joining Banks) whose Facility Commitment
is increasing a replacement Revolving Credit Note in the amount of its
respective increased Revolving Credit Commitment.
5. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Amendment and
the documents described in paragraph 4 above, Joining Banks shall each make a
Revolving Credit Loan as requested by the Company in an amount sufficient so
that no violation then occurs with respect to subsection 6.2(w) of the Credit
Agreement.
6. The definition of "Commitment Termination Date" contained in Section
1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by
the following new definition:
"Commitment Termination Date" shall mean, with respect to
each Bank, March 31, 1997, provided, however, that on or
before March 31 of each year, each Bank will review its
respective commitment and, in its sole discretion, may
extend the Commitment Termination Date for a period of
twelve months, provided, that in no event shall the
Commitment Termination Date be so extended unless and
until all Banks agree to such extension in writing.
7. The definition of "LOC Bank" contained in Section 1.1 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following new
definition:
"LOC Bank" shall mean each of the Banks, and any
successors thereto or assigns thereof, all of which are
also sometimes referred to herein collectively as the
"LOC Banks".
8. The definition of "Other Senior Homebuilding Indebtedness" contained
in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby modified to delete clause
(i) thereof and substitute in its place the following new clause: "(i)
outstanding principal balance of the Loans".
9. The definition of "Revolving Credit Commitments" contained in
Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its
entirety by the following new definition:
"Revolving Credit Commitments" means the collective
commitments of all the Banks to make the Revolving Credit
Loans to the Company pursuant to this Agreement in an
aggregate principal amount not to exceed, at any time
outstanding, $195,000,000, as such amount may be
increased pursuant to Subsection 8.7(c) hereof up to a
maximum collective amount of $215,000,000, provided,
however, that the Revolving Credit Commitment of each
Bank shall at all times be reduced by an amount equal to
each such Bank's Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage
of any then outstanding Excess Other Senior Homebuilding
Indebtedness; and the "Revolving Credit Commitment" of
any Bank at any particular time means the respective
commitment of such Bank to make Revolving Credit Loans to
the Company pursuant to this Agreement in an amount equal
to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage multiplied
by the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitments, all as set forth on Schedule 9 attached
hereto.
10. The definition of "Russian Joint Venture" contained in Section 1.1
of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the
following new definition:
"Russian Joint Venture" shall mean the investment(s) by
Hovnanian (or a Consolidated Subsidiary) in a Joint
Venture whose purpose is to develop property in what was
known as "Russia" as of July 30, 1993, or what is
currently known as "Poland" or "Hungary".
11. Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby further modified by
adding the following new definitions:
(a) "Net Worth Amount" shall mean Adjusted Tangible Net Worth less
Allocated Subordinated Debt.
(b) "Modified Adjusted Tangible Net Worth" shall mean Adjusted
Tangible Net Worth plus the lesser of: (i) $17,500,000, or (ii) the Company's
aggregate Investments in Income Producing Property Subsidiaries plus
Permitted Guarantees of Indebtedness of Income Producing Property
Subsidiaries less $10,000,000.
(c) "Temporary Period" shall begin on the date hereof and end on
the earlier of October 31, 1995 or the last date of the month in which
Homebuilding Indebtedness (calculated using the Facility Commitment, rather
than the outstanding principal balance of the Loans for the purpose of clause
(iii) of the definition of Senior Homebuilding Indebtedness) is less than the
sum of
(i) the product of
(a) the Current Total Debt Multiplier times
(b) the Net Worth Amount measured as of February 28,
1993, plus
(ii) the product of
(a) the Future Total Debt Multiplier times
(b) any change after February 28, 1993 in the Net Worth
Amount.
12. (a). Section 2.8(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby modified to
delete the words "both LOC Banks and $20,000,000 with respect to each LOC
Bank at any time" in the fifth and sixth lines thereof and substitute in
their place the words "the LOC Banks and not to exceed a maximum amount for
each LOC Bank at any time as set forth on Schedule 11 attached hereto and
made part hereof." Schedule 11 attached to and made part of this Amendment
shall be deemed the Schedule 11 attached to the Credit Agreement.
(b). Section 2.8(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby further
modified to add the following sentence to the end of such Section:
When requesting a Letter of Credit from any LOC
Bank, the Company shall simultaneously supply a
copy of such request to the Agent.
13. Section 2.8(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby modified to delete
the second sentence of such section and substitute in its place the
following:
Such letter of credit fee shall be payable in
full, upon issuance of each Letter of Credit
and based upon the maturity date of each
Letter of Credit, as follows: one-eighth of
one percent (.125%) shall be payable solely
to the issuing LOC Bank and the balance of
one and three-eighths percent (1.375%) shall
be payable to each of the Banks (including
the issuing LOC Bank) in an amount equal to
such Bank's Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentage of such portion of the letter of
credit fee payment".
14. Sections 2.8(e) and 6.1(a)(x) of the Credit Agreement are hereby
deleted in their entirety. Each Compliance Letter and Interim Compliance
Letter submitted by the Company pursuant to the Credit Agreement shall,
however, include a list of all outstanding Letters of Credit, setting forth
the issuance date, the issuing LOC Bank, the face amount, the beneficiary and
expiration date for each Letter of Credit. Company shall continue to supply
copies of the actual Letters of Credit to each Bank which requests copies.
15. Section 3.9 of the Credit Agreement is hereby modified to add the
following sentences to the end of such Section:
Without limiting the foregoing, such loss shall equal the
present value (using as the discount rate an interest rate equal to
the rate determined under (2) below) of the excess, if any of (1)
the amount of interest which otherwise would have accrued on the
Loan so paid, prepaid, terminated or converted (or not borrowed,
converted or extended) for the period from the date of such
payment, prepayment, termination or conversion (or failure to
borrow, convert or extend) to the last day of the then current
applicable Interest Period for the Loan (or in the case of a
failure to borrow, convert or extend, to the last day of the
applicable Interest Period for the Loan which would have commenced
on the date specified in the relevant notice) at the applicable
rate of interest for the Loan provided for herein (excluding any
margin above Libor), over (2) the amount of interest (as reasonably
determined by the Bank(s)) which would have accrued to the Bank(s)
on the principal amount of such Loan by placing such amount on
deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank
eurodollar market. A determination by the Bank(s) as to the
amounts payable pursuant to this section shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.
16. Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement shall be amended to add the
following additional subsections:
(ff) During and only during the Temporary Period, Subsection 6.2(s)
shall not be applicable to or binding upon the Company.
(gg) During and only during the Temporary Period, Homebuilding
Indebtedness shall not exceed the

(2) the Net Worth Amount measured as of February 28,
1993 plus
(ii) the product of
(1) the Future Total Debt Multiplier times
(2) the change between the Net Worth Amount measured as
of February 28, 1993 and Modified Adjusted Tangible
Net Worth less Allocated Subordinated Debt.
(hh) During and only during the Temporary Period, the Company shall
be prohibited from issuing any additional Subordinated Debt or
Other Senior Homebuilding Indebtedness.
17. Section 8.7(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its
entirety and replaced by the following new Section (without in any way
impairing or modifying the joinders of Additional Banks made prior to or
contemporaneously with this Amendment or the rights, benefits and obligations
of such Banks):
"The Company shall have the option, exercisable so long as no
Event of Default is outstanding hereunder, to have one additional
banking institution acceptable to Agent to join in, and assume a
Revolving Credit Commitment under, this Agreement and thereby
become an additional "Bank" under this Agreement ("Additional
Bank"), provided, however, that (i) the Revolving Credit Commitment
of the Additional Bank shall be $20,000,000, (ii) the Additional
Bank shall execute a joinder agreement acceptable to the Company
and the Agent under which such Additional Bank assumes and agrees
to be bound by its Revolving Credit Commitment, joins in this
Agreement as a "Bank" and thereby obtains all benefits and rights
of and agrees to perform all duties and obligations of a Bank
hereunder, (iii) the Company executes and delivers to such
Additional Bank a Revolving Credit Note in the amount of the
Revolving Credit Commitment of such Additional Bank and the
Guarantors each execute and deliver their Guaranty to the
Additional Bank, (iv) this Agreement shall be automatically deemed
to be amended to the extent necessary to give effect to the
modifications to the Facility Percentages, Loan percentages and
Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of each Bank caused by the
joinder of the Additional Bank into this Agreement, and (v)
concurrently with the execution of the documents described in
clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, the Additional Bank makes a
Revolving Credit Loan in an amount sufficient so that no violation
then occurs with respect to Subsection 6.2(w) hereof."
18. Subsection 9.2(a) of the Credit Agreement is modified to add the
following at the end of the second sentence of such Subsection:
"and Agent shall carry out and satisfy such duties with the
same degree of care as Agent would employ with regard to a similar
facility in which it was the only lender."
19. The fourth sentence of Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby modified to replace the term "Banks" at the end of such sentence with
the term "Requisite Banks". The fifth sentence of such Section is also
modified to delete the words "instructions of the Banks" at the end of such
sentence and substitute in their place the words "terms of this Agreement".
20. The Company represents and warrants that it has changed or is about
to change its fiscal year to October 31. Accordingly, to the extent that any
provision of the Credit Agreement requires determination of compliance by the
Company, Hovnanian and/or the Guarantors as of the end of a fiscal quarter,
such determination (and all calculations with respect thereto) shall be made
after the date hereof as of August 31, 1994, October 31, 1994 (for the two
months ending on such date) and as of each January 31, April 30, July 31 and
October 31 thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall, for
the purpose of all calculations to be made as of October 31, 1994, calculate
the actual results for the months of September and October, and (except with
respect to the calculation of Consolidated Net Income in clause (ii) of the
definitions of Minimum Capital and Minimum Equity) divide such number by two
and then multiply the result by three in order to determine whether it is in
compliance with the respective covenants as of such date.
21. Company hereby warrants and represents as follows:
(a) There is not currently outstanding any Event of Default or any
event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would
become an Event of Default;
(b) The Company has full power, authority and legal right (i) to
execute and deliver this Amendment and the Notes described herein, (ii) to
borrow under the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and (iii) to perform
and observe the terms and provisions of this Amendment and the Notes
described herein. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of
this Amendment and the Notes described herein have been duly authorized by
all necessary corporate action and are in furtherance of its corporate
purposes.
(c) The Guarantors each have full power, authority and legal right
(i) to execute and deliver this Amendment and Guaranties described herein and
(ii) to perform and observe the terms and provisions of this Amendment and
the Guaranties described herein. The execution, delivery and performance by
each Guarantor of this Amendment and its respective Guaranty described herein
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and are in
furtherance of its respective corporate purposes.
(d) No consent of any other Person (including shareholders of the
Company or of any of the Guarantors) and no consent, license, approval or
authorization of, or registration or declaration with, any governmental body,
authority, bureau or agency is required in connection with the execution,
delivery and performance by the Company and the Guarantors of this Amendment,
the Notes described herein or the Guaranties described herein.
(e) The execution, delivery and performance of and compliance with
this Amendment and the Notes described herein, in the case of the company,
and with this Amendment and the Guaranties described herein, in the case of
each Guarantor, will not result in any violation of or be in conflict with or
constitute a default under any term of its respective certificate of
incorporation or bylaws, or any agreement, indenture, mortgage, lease,
assignment, note or other instrument to which it is a party or which purports
to be binding upon it or upon any of its properties or assets, or any
judgment, decree, order, law, statute, ordinance, rule or governmental
regulation applicable to it (except to the extent that any such violations,
in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect), or result in the creation of an Encumbrance upon any of its
properties or assets pursuant to any such term.
(f) The respective representations and warranties of the Company
and each of the Guarantors contained in the Credit Agreement are true and
complete and correct in all material respects (or as to any representation or
warranty which is expressly qualified by reference to the term "Material
Adverse Effect", then in all respects) as if made on and as of the date of
this Amendment, except that the following changes have occurred with respect
to the Schedules attached to and made part of the Credit Agreement:
(i) Schedule 1 has been modified as a result of the joinder of
23 new Consolidated Subsidiaries, each of whom is now a Guarantor and is
executing this Amendment in such capacity, and Supplement to Schedule 1 is
attached hereto and made part hereof;
(ii) The first debt issue (issue date 12/13/84) listed on
Schedule 3 has been paid;
(iii) Third Replacement Schedule 9 and Schedule 11 attached
to this Amendment are deemed incorporated into the Credit Agreement and
Supplement to Schedule 1 attached to this Amendment is deemed incorporated
into Schedule 1 to the Credit Agreement.
22. Hovnanian acknowledges and confirms that the Pledge Agreement is
and shall remain valid, binding, and in full force and effect for the benefit
of all of the Banks including without limitation any and all Additional
Banks.
23. Contemporaneously with the execution hereof, the Company shall pay
an amendment fee, in consideration of the agreements and undertakings of the
Banks set forth in this Amendment, as follows:
(a) To each Joining Bank, a payment equal to one-tenth of one
percent (.10%) of the amount of the Facility Commitment of each such Bank;
(b) To each Bank (other than the Joining Banks) whose Facility
Commitment is increasing, one-tenth of one percent (.10%) of the amount of
the increase in the Facility Commitment of each such Bank (as reflected by
Third Replacement Schedule 9); and
(c) To each Bank other than the Joining Banks, three-hundreds of
one percent (.03%) of the amount of the Facility Commitment of each such Bank
in effect prior to the date of this Amendment.
This Amendment shall amend and be deemed incorporated into the
Credit Agreement as previously amended. To the extent any provision of this
Amendment is expressly inconsistent with any term or provision of the Credit
Agreement, as previously amended, the terms and provisions of this Amendment
shall control.
24. This Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto
on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken
together shall be deemed and constitute one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company, Hovnanian, the Guarantors, the Banks
and the Agent have each executed this Amendment as of the date first above
written.
