Additional Alternative Currencies (a) The Borrower may from time to time request that Eurocurrency Rate Loans be made and/or Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of “Alternative Currency;” provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency (other than Dollars). In the case of any such request with respect to the making of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders; and in the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers.
(i) Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., 15 Business Days prior to the date of the desired Credit Extension (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, each L/C Issuer, in its or their sole discretion). In the case of any such request pertaining to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender thereof; and in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each L/C Issuer thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender (in the case of any such request pertaining to Eurocurrency Rate Loans) or each L/C Issuer (in the case of a request pertaining to Letters of Credit) shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., ten Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, in such requested currency.
(ii) Any failure by a Revolving Credit Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Revolving Credit Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to permit Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made or Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and all the Revolving Credit Lenders consent to making Eurocurrency Rate Loans in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Borrowings of Eurocurrency Rate Loans; and if the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.14, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower.
Alternative Currencies (a) The Borrower may from time to time request that LIBO Rate Revolving Loans be made and/or Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than Dollars; provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency (other than Dollars) that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars. In the case of any such request with respect to the making of LIBO Rate Revolving Loans, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Revolving Lenders of the applicable Class that will provide such Loans, and in the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the applicable Issuing Banks, in each case as set forth in Section 9.02(b)(ii)(E).
(b) Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., ten Business Days prior to the requested date of the making of such Revolving Loan or issuance of such Letter of Credit (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the applicable Issuing Banks, in its or their sole discretion). In the case of any such request pertaining to LIBO Rate Revolving Loans, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof; and in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuings Bank thereof. Each applicable Revolving Lender (in the case of any such request pertaining to LIBO Rate Revolving Loans) or each applicable Issuing Bank (in the case of a request pertaining to Letters of Credit) shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., five Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of LIBO Rate Revolving Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, in such requested currency.
(c) Any failure by a Revolving Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Revolving Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to permit LIBO Rate Revolving Loans to be made or Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and all the applicable Revolving Lenders consent to making LIBO Rate Revolving Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders shall amend this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as necessary to accommodate such Borrowings and/or Letters of Credit (as applicable), in accordance with Section 9.02(b)(ii)(E). If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.10, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower.
Repayment of Revolving Loans The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding on such date.
Loans, Advances, Investments, Etc Make or commit or agree to make, or permit any of its Subsidiaries make or commit or agree to make, any Investment in any other Person except for Permitted Investments.
Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Euro-Dollar Loans If (a) the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain, or to convert outstanding Loans to, Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 2.15 or (b) any Lender has demanded compensation under Section 2.16(a) with respect to its Euro-Dollar Loans and, in any such case, the Borrower shall, by at least four Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Lender, then, unless and until such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer apply:
(i) all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as (or continued as or converted into) Euro-Dollar Loans shall instead be Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Lenders); and
(ii) after each of its Euro-Dollar Loans has been repaid, all payments of principal that would otherwise be applied to repay such Loans shall instead be applied to repay its Base Rate Loans. If such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer apply, the principal amount of each such Base Rate Loan shall be converted into a Euro-Dollar Loan on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable to the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Lenders.
Additional Interest on Eurodollar Rate Advances The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, so long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Advance of such Lender, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period for such Advance from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurodollar Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance. Such additional interest shall be determined by such Lender and notified to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
ABR Loans The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.
Bankers’ Acceptances (a) The Canadian Administrative Agent, promptly following receipt of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation, requesting BA Loans, shall advise each applicable Canadian Lender of the face or principal amount and term of each BA Loan to be accepted (and purchased) or advanced by it. The aggregate face or principal amount of BA Loans to be accepted or advanced by a Canadian Lender shall be determined by the Canadian Administrative Agent by reference to that Canadian Lender’s applicable pro rata portion of the issue or advance of BA Loans, except that the aggregate face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by the applicable Canadian Lenders shall be increased or reduced by the Canadian Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as may be necessary to ensure that the face amount of the Bankers’ Acceptance to be accepted by each applicable Canadian Lender would be C$100,000 or a whole multiple thereof. For greater certainty, the foregoing C$100,000 minimum face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances for each Lender shall not apply to BA Equivalent Loans.
(b) On the date specified in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation on which a BA Loan is to be made, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall advise the Canadian Borrower as to the Canadian Administrative Agent’s determination of the BA Discount Rate for the BA Loans to be purchased or advanced, as the case may be.
(c) The Canadian Borrower shall sell and each Canadian Lender shall purchase the Bankers’ Acceptance accepted by it at the applicable BA Discount Rate. Subject to clause (d) below, each Canadian Lender shall provide the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the account of the Canadian Borrower, the BA Discount Proceeds less the Applicable Stamping Fee payable by the Canadian Borrower with respect to the Bankers’ Acceptance.
(d) In the event the Canadian Borrower requests a continuation of BA Loans for a further Interest Period, or requests conversion from Canadian Prime Loans into BA Loans in accordance with Section 2.6, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall make arrangements satisfactory to it to ensure the BA Discount Proceeds from the replacement BA Loans are applied to repay the face amount of the maturing BA Loans or the principal amount of such loans to be converted (the “Maturing Amount”) and the Canadian Borrower should concurrently pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent any positive difference between the Maturing Amount and such BA Discount Proceeds.
(e) Each Canadian Lender may from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it.
(f) In order to facilitate the issuance of Bankers’ Acceptances pursuant to this Agreement, the Canadian Borrower hereby authorizes each of the Canadian Lenders, and appoints each of the Canadian Lenders as the Canadian Borrower’s attorney, to complete, sign and endorse drafts or depository bills (as defined in the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada) (each such executed draft or xxxx being herein referred to as a “Draft”) on its behalf in handwritten form or by facsimile or mechanical signature or otherwise in accordance with the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation and, once so completed, signed and endorsed to accept them as Bankers’ Acceptances under this Agreement and then if applicable, purchase, discount or negotiate such Bankers’ Acceptances in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Drafts so completed, signed, endorsed and negotiated on behalf of the Canadian Borrower by a Canadian Lender shall bind the Canadian Borrower as fully and effectively as if so performed by an Authorized Officer of the Canadian Borrower. Each draft of a Bankers’ Acceptance completed, signed or endorsed by a Canadian Lender shall mature on the last day of the term thereof. All Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by a particular Canadian Lender shall, at the option of such Canadian Lender, be issued in the form of depository bills made payable originally to and deposited with The Depository for Securities Limited pursuant to the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada).
(g) Any Drafts to be used for Bankers’ Acceptances which are held by a Canadian Lender shall be held in safekeeping with the same degree of care as if they were such Canadian Lender’s own property being kept at the place at which they are to be held. The Canadian Borrower may, by written notice to the Canadian Administrative Agent, designate persons other than Authorized Officers authorized to give the Canadian Administrative Agent instructions regarding the manner in which Drafts are to be completed and the times at which they are to be issued; provided however that receipt by the Canadian Administrative Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation requesting an advance or continuation into, Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to be sufficient authority from Authorized Officers or such designated persons for each of the Canadian Lenders to complete, and issue drafts in accordance with such notice. None of the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lenders nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or representatives shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under this Section 2.14(g) except for their own respective gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(h) The Canadian Borrower waives presentment for payment and any other defense to the payment of any amounts due to a Canadian Lender in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted and purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason of the Bankers’ Acceptance being held, at the maturity thereof, by the Canadian Lender in its own right and the Canadian Borrower agrees not to claim any days of grace if the Canadian Lender as holder sues the Canadian Borrower on the Bankers’ Acceptance for payment of the amount payable by the Canadian Borrower thereunder. Each Bankers’ Acceptance shall mature and the face amount thereof shall be due and payable on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
(i) Whenever the Canadian Borrower requests a Loan under this Agreement by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, each Non-Acceptance Lender shall, in lieu of accepting a Bankers’ Acceptance, make a BA Equivalent Loan by way of Discount Note in an amount equal to the Non-Acceptance Lender’s pro rata portion of the BA Loan. All terms of this Agreement applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances shall apply equally to Discount Notes evidencing BA Equivalent Loans with such changes as may in the context be necessary. For greater certainty:
(i) the term of a Discount Note shall be the same as the Interest Period for Bankers’ Acceptances accepted on the same date of the Borrowing in respect of the same BA Loan;
(ii) an acceptance fee will be payable in respect of a Discount Note and shall be calculated at the same rate and in the same manner as the Applicable Stamping Fee in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance; and
(iii) the proceeds from a BA Equivalent Loan shall be equal to the BA Discount Proceeds of the Discount Note.
