The Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed to be “Commitments” (as defined in the Credit

(ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Credit Agreement, from and after the Incremental Amendment Effective Date, the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments and the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall constitute a single class of Commitments for all purposes under the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby).
(b)     Each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender (i) confirms that a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents, together with copies of the financial statements referred to therein and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Amendment and provide an Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment have been made available to such Incremental Revolving Credit Lender; (ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon any other Lender or agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement or the other applicable Loan Documents, including this Amendment; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (iv) acknowledges and agrees that upon the Incremental Amendment Effective Date such Incremental Revolving Credit Lender shall be a “Lender” under, and for all purposes of, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall be subject to and bound by the terms thereof, and shall perform all the obligations of and shall have all rights of a Lender thereunder.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.
(h)     Headings. The headings of this Amendment are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.
(i)     Reference to and Effect on the Credit Agreement and the Other Loan Documents.

Except as specifically amended by this Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed and this Amendment shall not constitute a novation of the Credit Agreement of any other Loan Document. The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of, or operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Agent or Lender under, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

FORM OF SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE
[ ], 2020
To the Agent and each of the Lenders party to the Amendment referred to below:
I, the undersigned chief financial officer of Baldwin Risk Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”), in that capacity only and not in my individual capacity (and without personal liability), do hereby certify as of the date hereof, and based upon facts and circumstances as they exist as of the date hereof (and disclaiming any responsibility for changes in such facts and circumstances after the date hereof), that:
1.    This certificate is furnished to the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 5(g) of the Incremental Facility Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of March 12, 2020 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Amendment”), among Borrower, each lender from time to time party thereto, each of the Guarantors party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent (the “Agent”), which amends that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 19, 2019 (as further amended or otherwise modified from time to time, including by the Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the Lenders from time to time party thereto and the Agent. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this certificate shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.
2.    For purposes of this certificate, the terms below shall have the following definitions:
(a)    “Fair Value”
The amount at which the assets (both tangible and intangible), in their entirety, of Borrower would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, within a commercially reasonable period of time, each having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts, with neither being under any compulsion to act.
(b)    “Present Fair Salable Value”
The amount that could be obtained by an independent willing seller from an independent willing buyer if the assets of Borrower are sold with reasonable promptness in an arm’s-length transaction under present conditions for the sale of comparable business enterprises insofar as such conditions can be reasonably evaluated.
(c)    “Liabilities”
The recorded liabilities (including contingent liabilities that would be recorded in accordance with GAAP) of Borrower, as of the date hereof after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions, determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied.
(d)    “Will be able to pay their Liabilities as they mature”
For the period from the date hereof through the Maturity Date, Borrower will have sufficient assets and cash flow to pay its Liabilities as those liabilities mature or (in the case of contingent Liabilities)


    

    



otherwise become payable, in light of business conducted or anticipated to be conducted by the Loan Parties and in light of the anticipated credit capacity.
(e)    “Do not have Unreasonably Small Capital”
Borrower after consummation of the Transactions (as defined in the Amendment) is a going concern and has sufficient capital to reasonably ensure that it will continue to be a going concern for the period from the date hereof through the Maturity Date. I understand that “unreasonably small capital” depends upon the nature of the particular business or businesses conducted or to be conducted, and I have reached my conclusion based on the needs and anticipated needs for capital of the business conducted or anticipated to be conducted by the Borrower and in light of the anticipated credit capacity.
3.    For purposes of this certificate, I, or officers of the Borrower under my direction and supervision, have performed the following procedures as of and for the periods set forth below.

4.    Based on and subject to the foregoing, I hereby certify on behalf of Borrower that after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions (as defined in the Amendment), it is my opinion that (i) the Fair Value of the assets of the Borrower exceeds its Liabilities, (ii) the Present Fair Salable Value of the assets of Borrower exceeds its Liabilities; (iii) Borrower does not have Unreasonably Small Capital; and (iv) Borrower will be able to pay its Liabilities as they mature.

Borrowings under the amended credit facility continue to accrue interest on amounts drawn at LIBOR plus 200 basis points (“bps”). Interest rates are based on BRP LLC’s total net leverage ratio, but are capped at LIBOR plus 300 bps.
JPMorgan acted as sole bookrunner and lead arranger and will continue to serve as administrative agent and lender under the revolving credit facility, while Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Cadence Bank and Wintrust Financial will continue to serve as additional lenders.
