If any new or different security or securities, assets or other consideration shall be exchanged for the outstanding shares of Common Stock as described in the definition thereof, such new or different security or securities, assets or other consideration shall, effective upon such exchange, be deemed to become a Loaned Share in substitution for the former Loaned Share for which such exchange is made and in the same proportions as described in the definition of “Common Stock.” For purposes of return of Loaned Shares by Borrower or purchase or sale of securities pursuant to Section 4 or 10, Borrower may return securities of the same issuer, class and quantity as the Loaned Shares as adjusted pursuant to the two preceding sentences.

Section 10. Right to Extend; Lender’s Remedies.

(a) Borrower may, following the termination of any Loan hereunder, delay the date on which the related Loaned Shares are due to Lender pursuant to Sections 4(b) or 4(c) (the “Settlement Due Date”), with respect to some or all of such Loaned Shares, if Borrower reasonably determines, based on the advice of counsel, that such extension is reasonably necessary to enable Borrower (or any of its affiliates) to effect purchases of Common Stock in connection with this Agreement in a manner that would be in compliance with legal and regulatory requirements (i) applicable to Borrower or such affiliates in purchasing such shares of Common Stock or (ii) if Borrower were deemed to be Lender or an affiliated purchaser of Lender, that would be applicable to Lender in purchasing such shares of Common Stock; provided that no such extension or extensions shall postpone the Settlement Due Date later than the date that is 60 Business Days after the original date that would have been the Settlement Due Date but for this clause (a).

(b) If, upon the termination of any Loan under Section 9 and, on the Settlement Due Date (as may be extended pursuant to clause (a) above), the purchase of Common Stock in an amount equal to all or any portion of the Loaned Shares to be delivered to Lender by Borrower in accordance with Sections 4(b) or 4(c) of this Agreement (i) shall be prohibited by any law, rules or regulation of any governmental authority to which it is or would be subject, (ii) shall violate, or would upon such purchase likely violate, any order or prohibition of any court, tribunal or other governmental authority, (iii) shall require the prior consent of any court, tribunal or governmental authority prior to any such repurchase or (iv) would subject Borrower, in the reasonable judgment of Borrower, based on the advice of counsel, to any liability or potential liability under any applicable federal securities laws (including, without limitation, Section 16 of the Exchange Act) (each of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), a “Legal Obstacle”), then, in each case, Borrower shall immediately notify Lender of the Legal Obstacle and the basis therefor, whereupon such Borrower’s obligations under Sections 4(b) or 4(c), as the case may be, shall be suspended until such time as no Legal Obstacle with respect to such obligations shall exist (a “Repayment Suspension”). Following the occurrence of, and during the continuation of any Repayment Suspension, Borrower shall use its reasonable

 

11


best efforts to remove or cure the Legal Obstacle as promptly as possible and promptly deliver to Lender any Loaned Shares that it actually acquires. If, notwithstanding its reasonable best efforts, Borrower is unable to remove or cure the Legal Obstacle within 30 Business Days of the Settlement Due Date (as such Date may be extended pursuant to clause (a) above so long as the sum of the extensions pursuant to clause (a) above and this sentence does not exceed 60 Business Days), Borrower’s obligation to return the Loaned Shares shall be converted to an obligation to pay to Lender, on the first Business Day following the extension period described above, in lieu of the delivery of Loaned Shares in accordance with Sections 4(b) or 4(c), as the case may be, an amount in immediately available funds (the “Replacement Cash”) equal to the product of (A) the Closing Price as of the last Business Day of the extension period described above multiplied by (B) the number of Loaned Shares then outstanding.

(c) If Sections 10(a) and Section 10(b) are not applicable and Borrower shall fail to deliver Loaned Shares in accordance with Section 4, or if Section 10(b) is applicable and Borrower shall fail to pay the Replacement Cash in accordance with Section 10(b), then, in addition to any other remedies available to Lender under this Agreement or under applicable law, Lender shall have the right (upon prior written notice to Borrower) to purchase a like amount of Loaned Shares (“Replacement Shares”) in the principal market for such securities in a commercially reasonable manner and in compliance with applicable securities laws. To the extent Lender shall exercise such right, Borrower’s obligation to return a like amount of Loaned Shares or to pay the Replacement Cash, as applicable, shall terminate and Borrower shall be liable to Lender for the purchase price of Replacement Shares (plus all other amounts, if any, due to Lender hereunder), all of which shall be due and payable within one Business Day of notice to Borrower by Lender of the aggregate purchase price of the Replacement Shares. The purchase price of Replacement Shares purchased under this Section 10 shall include broker’s fees and commissions and all other reasonable costs, fees and expenses related to such purchase.

Section 11. Transfers.

(a) All transfers of Loaned Shares to Borrower hereunder shall be made by the crediting by a Clearing Organization of such Loaned Shares to Borrower’s “securities account” (within the meaning of Section 8-501 of the UCC) maintained with such Clearing Organization. All transfers of Loaned Shares to Lender hereunder shall be made by the crediting of such Loaned Shares to Lender’s Designated Account. In every transfer of “financial assets” (within the meaning of Section 8-102 of the UCC) hereunder, the transferor shall take all steps necessary (a) to effect a delivery to the transferee under Section 8-301 of the UCC, or to cause the creation of a security entitlement in favor of the transferee under Section 8-501 of the UCC, (b) to enable the transferee to obtain “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the UCC), and (c) to provide the transferee with comparable rights under any applicable foreign law or regulation that is applicable to such transfer.

 

12


(b) All transfers of cash hereunder to Borrower or Lender shall be by wire transfer in immediately available, freely transferable funds.

(c) A transfer of securities or cash may be effected under this Section 11 on any day except (i) a day on which the transferee is closed for business at its address set forth in Section 16 or (ii) a day on which a Clearing Organization or wire transfer system is closed, if the facilities of such Clearing Organization or wire transfer system are required to effect such transfer.

Section 12. Indemnities.

(a) Lender hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Borrower and its affiliates and its former, present and future directors, officers, employees and other agents and representatives from and against any and all liabilities, judgments, claims, settlements, losses, damages, fees, liens, taxes, penalties, obligations and expenses (and losses relating to Borrower’s market activities as a consequence of becoming, or of the risk of becoming, subject to Section 16(b) under the Exchange Act, including without limitation, any forbearance from market activities or cessation of market activities and any losses in connection therewith or with respect to this Agreement) incurred or suffered by any such person or entity directly or indirectly arising from, by reason of, or in connection with, (i) any breach by Lender of any of its representations or warranties contained in Section 7 or (ii) any breach by Lender of any of its covenants or agreements in this Agreement.

(c) In case any claim or litigation which might give rise to any obligation of a party under this Section 12 (each an “Indemnifying Party”) shall come to the attention of the party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the existence and amount thereof; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not adversely affect the right of the Indemnified Party to indemnification under this Agreement, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing if it accepts such claim or litigation

 

13


as being within its indemnification obligations under this Section 12. Such response shall be delivered no later than 30 days after the initial notification from the Indemnified Party; provided that, if the Indemnifying Party reasonably cannot respond to such notice within 30 days, the Indemnifying Party shall respond to the Indemnified Party as soon thereafter as reasonably possible.

EXHIBIT A

[Form of Guarantee]

July 28, 2008

 

To: Sirius Satellite Radio Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In consideration of that certain Share Lending Agreement dated as of July 28, 2008 (hereinafter the “Agreement”) by and between Morgan Stanley Capital Services, Inc. (hereinafter “MSCS”) and Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. (hereinafter “Sirius”), Morgan Stanley, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter “MS”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Sirius, with effect from the date of the Agreement, the due and punctual payment of all amounts payable by MSCS under the Agreement when the same shall become due and payable, whether on the date scheduled for payment, upon demand, upon declaration of termination or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and giving effect to any applicable grace period. Upon failure of MSCS punctually to pay any such amounts, and upon written demand by Sirius to MS at its address set forth in the signature block of this Guarantee (or to such other address as MS may specify in writing), MS agrees to pay or cause to be paid such amounts; provided that delay by Sirius in giving such demand shall in no event affect MS’s obligations under this Guarantee.

MS hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional and will not be discharged except by complete payment of the amounts payable under the Agreement, irrespective of any claim as to the Agreement’s validity, regularity or enforceability or the lack of authority of MSCS to execute or deliver the Agreement; or any change in or amendment to the Agreement; or any waiver or consent by Sirius with respect to any provisions thereof; or the absence of any action to enforce the Agreement, or the recovery of any judgment against MSCS or of any action to enforce a judgment against MSCS under the Agreement; or any similar circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor generally.

MS hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand on MSCS for payment or otherwise (except as provided hereinabove), filing of claims, requirement of a prior proceeding against MSCS and protest or notice, except as provided for in the Agreement with respect to amounts payable by MSCS. If at any time payment under the Agreement is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned by Sirius upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of MSCS or MS or otherwise, MS’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated upon such restoration or return being made by Sirius.

 

19


MS represents to Sirius as of the date hereof that:

 

1. it is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has full power and legal right to execute and deliver this Guarantee and to perform the provisions of this Guarantee on its part to be performed;

 

2. its execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee have been and remain duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not contravene any provision of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws or any law, regulation or contractual restriction binding on it or its assets;

 

3. all consents, authorizations, approvals and clearances (including, without limitation, any necessary exchange control approval) and notifications, reports and registrations requisite for its due execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee have been obtained from or, as the case may be, filed with the relevant governmental authorities having jurisdiction and remain in full force and effect and all conditions thereof have been duly complied with and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority having jurisdiction is required for such execution, delivery or performance; and

 

4. this Guarantee is its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as enforcement hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights or by general equity principles.

By accepting this Guarantee and entering into the Agreement, Sirius agrees that MS shall be subrogated to all rights of Sirius against MSCS in respect of any amounts paid by MS pursuant to this Guarantee, provided that MS shall be entitled to enforce or to receive any payment arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation only to the extent that it has paid all amounts payable by MSCS under the Agreement.

This Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.
