Exhibit 10.1
 
EXECUTION VERSION
 

AMENDMENT NO. 2 dated as of October 23, 2009 (this “ Amendment ”), to the Credit Agreement dated as of March 10, 2006, as amended as of March 1, 2007 (as so amended, the “ Existing Credit Agreement ”), among HEALTHSOUTH CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “ Borrower ”), the LENDERS party thereto, JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, and the other parties thereto.
 
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested each Term Lender to extend the final maturity date that would apply to all or a portion of the Term Loans of such Lender as set forth herein, and each Term Lender whose name is set forth on Schedule 2.01A hereto (such Term Lenders being collectively referred to as the “ Extending Term Lenders ”) has agreed so to extend the final maturity date that would otherwise apply to the principal amount of the Term Loans of such Lender set forth on such Schedule 2.01A opposite the name of such Lender (such Term Loans being collectively referred to as the “ Tranche 2 Term Loans ”); and
 
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Existing Credit Agreement be amended to provide for the extensions referred to above and for certain other matters set forth herein, and that, as so amended, the Existing Credit Agreement be restated to be in the form of Exhibit A hereto;
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders party hereto hereby agree as follows:
 
SECTION 1.   Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein (including the preliminary statements hereto) have the meanings assigned to them in the Existing Credit Agreement or the Restated Credit Agreement (as defined below), as the context may require.
 
SECTION 2.   Amendment and Restatement.   (a)  Effective as of the Restatement Effective Date, (i) the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to be in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the Existing Credit Agreement, as so amended and restated, being referred to as the “ Restated Credit Agreement ”), (ii) Schedule 2.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to be in the form of Schedule 2.01 attached to the Restated Credit Agreement, and (iii) the form of First Lien Intercreditor Agreement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto is hereby incorporated into the Restated Credit Agreement and made a part thereof.
 
(b)   Except as expressly set forth therein, all Schedules and Exhibits referred to in the Restated Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the corresponding Schedules and Exhibits to the Existing Credit Agreement.
 
SECTION 3.   Concerning the Term Loans.   (a)  The Borrower and each Extending Term Lender agree that, on the Restatement Effective Date, the Term Loans of such Lender in an aggregate principal amount set forth on Schedule 2.01A opposite the name of such Lender shall convert into Tranche 2 Term Loans of such Lender, and shall continue to be in effect and outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth therein.  In the event the Term Loans of any Extending Term Lender shall be part of more than one Term Borrowing as of the Restatement Effective Date (immediately prior to the consummation of such conversion), such conversion shall be accomplished by means of each such Term Loan that is part of any Borrowing converting into a Tranche 2 Term Loan of such Lender in the same proportion as the aggregate principal amount set forth on Schedule 2.01A opposite the name of such Lender bears to the aggregate principal amount of all the Term Loans of such Lender as of the Restatement Effective Date (determined immediately prior to the consummation of such conversion), with each such resulting Tranche 2 Term Loan being part of a Borrowing of the same Type as the Term Loan from which it shall have been converted and, in the case of any Tranche 2 Term Loan that shall have been converted from a Eurodollar Term Loan, shall have an initial Interest Period that ends on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Term Loan.
 
(b)   The Term Loans of any Term Lender that are not Tranche 2 Term Loans shall constitute “Tranche 1 Term Loans” under the Restated Credit Agreement and shall continue to be in effect and outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth therein.
 
(c)    None of transactions set forth in this paragraph shall be deemed to be a conversion of a Eurodollar Borrowing into another Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period then applicable thereto, or a payment or prepayment of any Term Loan.
 
SECTION 4.   Concerning the Intercreditor Agreement; Amendment of Security Documents.   The Agents, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders party hereto acknowledge that obligations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries under the Pari Passu Indebtedness and the Pari Passu Indebtedness Documents, and certain obligations related thereto, will be secured by Liens on assets of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries that constitute Pari Passu Indebtedness Collateral, and that such Liens will or may be created pursuant to the Security Documents.  The Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders party hereto hereby irrevocably (a) approve the form of the Intercreditor Agreement attached as Exhibit B hereto, (b) authorize and direct the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver such amendments to the Security Documents as the Administrative Agent shall determine to be appropriate to cause the Pari Passu Indebtedness, and certain obligations related thereto, to be secured on an equal and ratable basis with the other Obligations (as defined in the Collateral and Guarantee Agreement), in each case without any further consent, authorization or other action by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, (c) authorize and direct the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement (with such changes thereto as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) and any documents relating thereto, in each case, on behalf of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender and without any further consent, authorization or other action by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, (d) agree that, upon the execution and delivery of the amended Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender will be bound by the provisions thereof as if it were a signatory thereto and will take no actions contrary to the provisions thereof, (e) agree that no Lender, Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of any action taken by any Agent pursuant to this Section or in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and (f) make such further acknowledgements, agreements, authorizations and directions as are set forth in Section 9.18 of the Restated Credit Agreement.
