Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 31, 2017, UGI Utilities, Inc. (the "Company"), entered into an unsecured Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") among the Company, as borrower, PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, The Bank of New York Mellon as syndication agent, PNC Capital Markets LLC and Citizens Bank, N.A., as joint lead arrangers, PNC Capital Markets LLC as sole bookrunner, Branch Banking and Trust Company and F.N.B. Corporation, as documentation agents, and certain other lenders (the "Lenders") consisting of a $125,000,000 term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility").

Base Rate Advances (as defined in the Credit Agreement) will bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (1) the highest of (a) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate, or (c) the daily LIBOR rate plus 1.0%, and (2) the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement), each as in effect on the date of the borrowing. The Applicable Margin will be based on the credit ratings assigned to certain indebtedness of the Company. Eurodollar Rate Advances (as defined in the Credit Agreement) will bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (1) the London interbank offered rates divided by a number equal to 1.00 minus the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and (2) the Applicable Margin.

The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of October 30, 2018. The maturity date may be extended to October 30, 2022, if, on or before October 30, 2018, the Company satisfies certain requirements relating to approval of the Credit Agreement by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission. The Company may voluntarily prepay its borrowings under the Credit Agreement, in whole or in part, without any premium or penalty.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants for agreements of this type, including, among others, covenants relating to the maintenance of a financial ratio, financial reporting, compliance with laws, payment of taxes, preservation of existence, books and records, maintenance of properties and insurance, limitations on liens, restrictions on mergers, and limitations on changes in the nature of the Company’s business.

The Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default, including, among other things, in the event of nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, a representation or warranty proving to have been incorrect in any material respect when made, failure to perform or observe covenants within a specified period of time, a cross-default to other Company indebtedness of a specified amount, the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company, monetary judgment defaults of a specified amount, a change of control of the Company, and ERISA defaults resulting in liability for a specified amount. In the event of a default by the Company, the requisite number of Lenders (or the agent at their request) may declare all amounts owed under the Credit Agreement immediately due and payable. For defaults related to insolvency and receivership, all amounts owed will automatically become immediately due and payable. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, a 2% interest penalty may apply to any outstanding amount not paid when due or that remains outstanding while an event of default exists.

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.





Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

Such notice (the “Notice of Term Loan Borrowing”) shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto. Each Lender shall, before 2:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the Effective Date make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to the amount of its Commitment. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by transferring such funds to an account designated by the Borrower no later than 4:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the Effective Date.

(b) Reserved.

(c) The Notice of Term Loan Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

(d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the Effective Date that such Lender will not make available to the Agent an amount equal to the amount of such Lender’s Commitment, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Agent on the Effective Date in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such amount available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Advances made on the Effective Date and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry interbank compensation rules. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower to the Agent for such period. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance for purposes of this Agreement. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against the Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Agent.

(e) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made on the Effective Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the Effective Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the Effective Date.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, require the Borrower to pay interest (“Default Interest on Advances and Other Amounts”) on (i) the unpaid principal amount of the Advance owing to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, as the case may be, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances pursuant to clause (a)(i) above, provided, however, that following acceleration of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01, Default Interest on Advances and Other Amounts shall accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Agent and shall be paid in full on demand.

Section 2.09 Interest Rate Determination.

(a) The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.08(a)(i) or (ii).

(b) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Required Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to Convert Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(c) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into Base Rate Advances.

(d) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Eurodollar Tranche shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $5,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances.

(e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to Convert Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended.

(f) If on any date on which a Eurodollar Rate would otherwise be determined, the Agent shall have determined that: (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such Eurodollar Rate, or (ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the Eurodollar Rate,

(i) the Agent shall forthwith notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the interest rate cannot be determined for such Eurodollar Rate Advances,

(ii) with respect to Eurodollar Rate Advances, each such Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance (or if such Advance is then a Base Rate Advance, will continue as a Base Rate Advance), and

(iii) the obligation of the Lenders to Convert Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

Section 2.10 Continuation or Optional Conversion of Advances. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed continuation or Conversion of any Advances and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.09 and 2.13, (a) continue any Eurodollar Rate Advances as Eurodollar Rate Advances for a new Interest Period or (b) Convert (i) Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances or (ii) Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances; provided, however, that (x) any continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances or Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, (y) any continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances or any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000 and (z) no continuation or Conversion of any Advances shall result in more than six (6) separate Eurodollar Tranches. Each such notice of any continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances or of any Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such continuation or Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be continued or Converted, and (iii) with respect to any continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances or Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of continuation or Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

Section 2.11 Optional Prepayments of Advances. The Borrower may, upon notice not later than 1:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) at least three Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances, and not later than 1:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the date of such prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances in such amount, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment, in the case of any Eurodollar Tranche, shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 and in the case of Base Rate Advances, shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or, in each case, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the Borrower shall (i) be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c) and (ii) notify the Administrative Agent which Eurodollar Tranche or Tranches are being repaid. Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Advances of the Lenders and shall be applied pro rata across the remaining installments of the Advances (including the payment due on the Maturity Date).

Section 2.12 Increased Costs.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate);

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Advances made by such Lender or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Advance (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly pay to any such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Applicable Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Advance made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time upon written request of such Lender the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 2.13 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, (a) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (b) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to Convert Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided, however, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.

Section 2.14 Payments and Computations.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 3:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Agent at the Agent’s Account in same day funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12, 2.15 or 8.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.07(b), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b) The Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender is not made when due hereunder or under the Note held by such Lender to charge from time to time against any or all of the Borrower’s accounts with such Lender any amount so due.

(c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest are payable. Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate or component thereof under this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(e) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

Section 2.15 Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.15, the term “Law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Law. If any Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Official Body in accordance with Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Official Body in accordance with Law, or at the option of the Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 8.07(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this subsection (e).

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to an Official Body pursuant to this Section 2.15, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.15(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Law to permit the Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) 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 Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out of pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Official Body with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Official Body) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Official Body. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after Tax position than the 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 subsection shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 2.16 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set off, or otherwise) on account of the Advance owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.12, 2.15 or 8.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such 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. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.17 Evidence of Debt.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from the Advance owing to such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of its Advance. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advance owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount up to the Commitment of such Lender.

(b) The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of the Advances made hereunder, the Type of Advances (including continuations and Conversions thereof) and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) Entries made in good faith by the Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, 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, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the 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.

Section 2.18 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including working capital and capital expenditures.

Section 2.19 Reserved.

Section 2.20 Extension of Maturity Date. Without any further action by or consent of the Lenders, the Maturity Date shall be extended to October 30, 2022, if, on or before the date that is 364 days after the Effective Date, the Borrower shall have delivered to the Agent (each in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent) the following: (a) a copy of the securities certificate registered with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (the “Securities Certificate”) authorizing the Borrower’s incurring indebtedness hereunder with a maturity date of October 30, 2022; (b) an opinion of counsel to the Borrower (which may be in-house counsel) stating that (i) the Securities Certificate has been registered with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission in accordance with Chapter 19 of the Pennsylvania Public Utility Code and by virtue of such registration, authorizes the Borrower to incur indebtedness hereunder with a maturity date of October 30, 2022 and (ii) no other authorizations are required by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission or by any other state or local regulatory agency or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Borrower and (c) copies of corporate resolutions certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Borrower, or such other evidence as may be satisfactory to the Agent, demonstrating that the Borrower’s incurrence of indebtedness hereunder with a maturity date of October 30, 2022 has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, together with an opinion of counsel to the Borrower (which may be in-house counsel) to such effect.

     
Section 2.21
  [Reserved].
 
   
Section 2.22
  Mitigation, Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
 
   

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. In addition to the provisions in Section 2.13, if any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.22(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender hereunder or becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, or any Lender gives a notice under Section 2.13, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 8.07), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 6.01 and 8.01) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.

The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 3 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

Section 7.04 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Advances that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the Effective Date. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 7.05 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 7 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

Section 7.06 Resignation of Agent. The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with approval from the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) may appoint a successor agent, which successor may be replaced by the Required Lenders; provided that such replacement is, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders or the Borrower within sixty (60) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent; provided that if the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of collateral security, if any, held by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section 7.06. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article 7 and Section 8.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent.

Upon the appointment of a successor Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of PNC as the retiring Agent and PNC shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations as Agent under the Loan Documents.

Section 7.07 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 7.08 No Reliance on Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the Borrower, its Affiliates or its agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any recordkeeping, (c) comparisons with government lists, (d) customer notices or (e) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.

Section 7.09 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to their respective Ratable Shares, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”), provided that no Lender shall be liable to the Agent for any portion of the Indemnified Costs resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its Ratable Share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 7.09 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Agent, any Lender or a third party.

Section 7.10 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the syndication agent or any other Person designated as any “Agent”, “Arranger”, “Bookrunner” or “Documentation Agent” listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as and the extent applicable, as the Agent or a Lender hereunder.

(c) Each Lender agrees that notices and communications to such Lender hereunder may be delivered or furnished by e-mail communication or other electronic communication (a “Notice”), including by specifying that any Communications have been posted to the Platform, which in each such case constitute effective delivery of such information, documents or other materials to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender if such Lender has notified the Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices by electronic communication. Each Lender agrees (x) to notify the Agent in writing of such Lender’s e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent by electronic transmission (including by electronic communication) on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter to ensure that the Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender) and (y) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

Section 8.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 8.04 Costs and Expenses.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of this Agreement, the Notes, and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, (A) all due diligence, syndication (including printing, distribution and bank meetings), transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, consultant, and audit expenses and (B) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Agent as to its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of (or any proposed amendment or supplement to or modification or waiver of), this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents.

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent, each Lender, any Person named as Syndication Agent, Arranger, Bookrunner or Documentation Agent on the cover page of this Agreement, and each of their Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and any civil penalties or fines assessed by OFAC) incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense (x) is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, (y) arose from a material breach of such Indemnified Party’s obligations under any Loan Document (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), or (z) results from a claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by one Indemnified Person against another Indemnified Person that does not involve an act or omission by, or a condition relating to, the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof (other than a claim against an Indemnified Person solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent, Arranger, Bookrunner or Documentation Agent). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 8.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Each of the Borrower and each Lender agrees not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against the Agent, any Lender, the Borrower, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of or otherwise relating to the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances; provided that, nothing contained in this sentence shall relieve the Borrower of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnified Party against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnified Party by a third party.

(c) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.09(d) or (e), 2.11 or 2.13, acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.07 as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.07(a), the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 8.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes.

Section 8.05 Right of Set off. Upon either (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(e) or (b) (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender and each of their Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note(s) held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set off) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have.

Section 8.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

Section 8.07 Assignments and Participations.

(a) Each Lender may and, if demanded by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.22(b) upon at least five Business Days’ notice to such Lender and the Agent, will assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Advance owing to it, and its interest in the Note held by it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Advances of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $2,500,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof unless the Borrower and the Agent otherwise agree, (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (iv) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 8.07(a) shall be arranged by the Borrower after consultation with the Agent and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, (v) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 8.07(a) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the Borrower or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, and (vi)  the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Assumption, together with any Note subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 payable by the parties to each such assignment, provided, however, that in the case of each assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrower, such recordation fee shall be payable by the Borrower except that no such recordation fee shall be payable in the case of an assignment made at the request of the Borrower to an Eligible Assignee that is an existing Lender. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 8.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(b) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.

(c) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.02 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Borrower or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, 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, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Agent 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 and (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. The applicable Lender, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each participant to which such Lender has sold a participating interest and the amount of each such participant’s interest in such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the related rights and/or obligations, subject to the provisions of this Section.

(e) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 8.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Borrower Information relating to the Borrower received by it from such Lender.

Section 8.08 Confidentiality. Neither the Agent nor any Lender may disclose to any Person any confidential, proprietary or non-public information of the Borrower furnished to the Agent or the Lenders by the Borrower (such information being referred to collectively herein as the “Borrower Information”), except that each of the Agent and each of the Lenders may disclose Borrower Information (i) to its and its affiliates’ employees, officers, directors, agents and advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Borrower Information and instructed to keep such Borrower Information confidential on substantially the same terms as provided herein), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 8.08, to any assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant, (vii) to the extent such Borrower Information (A) is or becomes generally available to the public on a non-confidential basis other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.08 by the Agent or such Lender, or (B) is or becomes available to the Agent or such Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower and (viii) with the consent of the Borrower.

EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BORROWER INFORMATION, FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS AFFILIATES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, UGI UTILITIES, INC., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Borrower”), HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to        or its registered assigns (the “Lender”) for the account of its Applicable Lending Office the principal sum of U.S. $[amount of the Lender’s Commitment in figures] as and when required by Credit Agreement dated as of October 31, 2017 among the Borrower, the Lender and certain other lenders parties thereto, PNC Bank, National Association, as Agent for the Lender and such other lenders, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as syndication agent (as amended or modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; the terms defined therein being used herein as therein defined), and in any event in full on the Maturity Date.

The Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof from the date hereof until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates, and payable at such times, as are specified in the Credit Agreement.

Both principal and interest are payable in lawful money of the United States of America to PNC, as Agent, at 500 First Avenue, Fourth Floor, Pittsburgh, PA 15219, in same day funds. The holder of this Promissory Note is authorized to endorse on Schedule I annexed hereto the Advance made by the Lender to the Borrower on the Effective Date pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and all payments made on account of principal thereof, and any such endorsement or recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so endorsed or recorded; provided, however, that the failure to make any such endorsement or recordation (or any error in such endorsement or recordation) shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower to make payments of principal, interest and other amounts outstanding in accordance with the terms of this Promissory Note and the Credit Agreement.

This Promissory Note is one of the Notes referred to in, and is entitled to the benefits of, the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement, among other things, (i) provides for the making of the Advance by the Lender to the Borrower on the Effective Date in an aggregate amount equal to the dollar amount first above mentioned, the indebtedness of the Borrower resulting from such Advance being evidenced by this Promissory Note and (ii) contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain stated events and also for prepayments on account of principal hereof prior to the maturity hereof upon the terms and conditions therein specified.

PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent

Philadelphia, PA 19103
Re:
  under the Credit Agreement referred
to herein and the Lenders parties thereto


Credit Agreement dated as of October 31, 2017 of UGI Utilities, Inc.
 
   

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for UGI Utilities, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Credit Agreement, dated as of October 31, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the lenders referred to therein (the “Lenders”), PNC Bank, National Association, as Agent for the Lenders (the “Agent”), and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Syndication Agent. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used as therein defined, unless otherwise defined herein. This opinion letter is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 3.01(g)(vi) of the Credit Agreement.

In connection with this opinion letter, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company and such other documents and records, and other instruments as we have deemed appropriate for purposes of the opinions set forth herein, including the following documents (the documents referred to in clauses (a) through (n) below are referred to herein as the “Credit Documents”):

(b) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $15,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of PNC Bank, National Association;

(c) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $15,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania;

(e) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $15,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of Branch Banking and Trust Company;

(f) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $15,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of First National Bank of Pennsylvania;

(g) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $10,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of The Bryn Mawr Trust Company;

(h) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $9,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of First Keystone Community Bank;

(i) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $8,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of QNB Bank;

(l) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $5,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of Mauch Chunk Trust Company;

(m) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $5,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of Penn Community Bank;

(n) the Term Loan Note in the amount of $3,000,000, executed by the Company on the date hereof in favor of ESSA Bank & Trust;

(o) the Certificate of the Assistant Secretary, dated as of the date hereof, executed by the Company attaching and certifying (i) incumbencies of the officers and agents of the Company; (ii) an excerpt from the minutes of a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company called, convened and held on September 25, 2017 with respect to the transactions referred to herein; (iii) a true, correct and complete copy of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company; (iv) a true, correct and complete copy of the By-Laws of the Company; and (v) a true, correct and complete copy of the subsistence certificate of the Company; and

(e) a certificate of the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, dated as of a recent date, attesting to the present subsistence of the Company as attached on Exhibit B hereto (the “Certificate of Subsistence”).

We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of the documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, facsimile, electronic or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed that the Credit Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of each party thereto other than the Company.

As to any facts that are material to the opinions hereinafter expressed that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied without investigation upon the representations of the Company contained in the Credit Documents and upon certificates of officers of the Company.

In rendering the opinions set forth herein, whenever a statement or opinion set forth therein is qualified by “to our knowledge,” “known to us” or by words of similar import, it is intended to indicate that, during the course of our representation of the Company in the subject transaction, no information has come to the attention of those lawyers in our firm who have rendered legal services in connection with such transaction that gives us actual knowledge of the inaccuracy of such statement or opinion. We have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the accuracy of facts material to any such statement or opinion, and no inference as to such statement or opinion should be drawn from the fact of our representation of the Company.

We have relied upon a certificate of an officer of the Company dated the date hereof, certifying that the items listed in such certificate are (i) all of the indentures, loan or credit agreements, leases, guarantees, mortgages, security agreements, bonds, notes, other agreements or instruments (the “Contracts” as set forth on Exhibit A hereto), and (ii) all of the judicial or administrative orders, writs, judgments, awards, injunctions and decrees (the “Company Orders”), which as to any matter in (i) or (ii) affect or purport to affect the Company’s right to borrow money under the Credit Agreement or the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, we have assumed that (i) each of the parties to the Credit Documents (other than the Company) is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and has the full power and legal right to execute and deliver each of the Credit Documents to be executed by it and to perform the provisions of the Credit Documents to be performed by it; (ii) each of the Credit Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each party thereto (other than the Company), and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each such party (other than the Company), enforceable against it in accordance with the terms thereof; and (iii) the execution, delivery and performance by the parties (other than the Company) of each of the Credit Documents to which they are a party, do not contravene (A) their respective charter, bylaws or other applicable constituent documents or (B) any applicable law.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and to the limitations and qualifications described below, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Company is a corporation presently subsisting under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

2. The Company has the corporate power and authority to enter into and perform the Credit Documents, has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance (except with respect to any Commitment Increase) of such Credit Documents and has duly executed and delivered such Credit Documents.

3. Each Credit Document is the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

4. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents do not, and the performance by the Company of its respective obligations thereunder will not, (i) result in a violation of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, (ii) result in a breach or default under any Contract or (iii) result in a violation of any Company Order.

5. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents do not, and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder will not, require any approval from or filing with any governmental authority of the United States, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or the State of New York other than in connection with the extension of the Maturity Date contemplated by Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement (the “Maturity Date Extension”) and, in connection with the Maturity Date Extension the registration of a Securities Certificate in accordance with Chapter 19 of the Pennsylvania Public Utility Code (“PPUC”) authorizing the Company’s incurrence of indebtedness under the Credit Agreement.

6. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents do not, and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder will not, result in any violation of any federal law of the United States, any law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, any law of the State of New York or any regulation thereunder, except that prior to the effectiveness of the Maturity Date Extension the Company must register a Securities Certificate in accordance with Chapter 19 of the PPUC.

7. The use of the proceeds from any extension of credit under the Credit Agreement in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement does not violate the provisions of Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

8. To our knowledge, there are no pending lawsuits or other proceedings against the Company before any court arbitrator or governmental agency or authority that challenge the legality, validity or enforceability of the Credit Documents.

9. The Company is not required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following limitations, exceptions, qualifications and assumptions:

A. The opinions expressed herein are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally and general principles of equity.

B. We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of indemnification provisions, or of release or exculpation provisions, contained in the Credit Documents to the extent that enforcement thereof is contrary to public policy regarding the indemnification against or release or exculpation of criminal violations, intentional harm or violations of securities laws.

C. The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are limited to the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the laws of the State of New York and the Federal laws of the United States of America, and we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other state or jurisdiction.

D. For purposes of our opinion in paragraph 1 hereof as to the valid existence of the Company, we have relied solely upon a subsistence certificate issued by the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

E. For purposes of the opinion in paragraph 6, we have considered only such laws and regulations that in our experience are typically applicable to a transaction of the nature contemplated by the Credit Documents.

F. Certain waivers by the Company in the Credit Documents may relate to matters that cannot, as a matter of law, be effectively waived.

G. For purposes of the opinion in paragraph 4, where any Contract is silent as to governing law or states that it is governed by laws of a state other than the laws of New York or Pennsylvania, we have not made any investigation of the laws of any other state but have merely assumed that they would be interpreted in accordance with their plain meaning.

H. We express no opinion as to:

(i) the enforceability of any provision of the Credit Documents insofar as it provides that any Person purchasing a participation from a Lender or other Person may exercise set-off or similar rights with respect to such participation or that a Lender or other Person may exercise set-off or similar rights other than in accordance with applicable law;

(ii) the enforceability of any provision of the Credit Documents permitting modification thereof only by means of an agreement in writing signed by the parties thereto;

(iii) the covenants in the Contracts that contain financial ratios and other similar financial restrictions;

(iv) the enforceability of Section 8.15 of the Credit Agreement; or

(v) whether a federal or state court located outside the State of New York would give effect to the choice of law provided for in the Credit Documents.

This opinion letter is effective only as of the date hereof. We do not assume responsibility for updating this opinion letter as of any date subsequent to its date, and we assume no responsibility for advising you of any changes with respect to any matters described in this opinion letter that may occur subsequent to the date of this opinion letter or from the discovery, subsequent to the date of this opinion letter, of information not previously known to us pertaining to the events occurring prior to such date.
