(b) If on any date any Group Member shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, to the extent a Reinvestment Notice shall not have been delivered in respect thereof, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within ten days after the date that all post-closing adjustments associated therewith have been completed toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d).
(c) If, for any Fiscal Year of the Borrower commencing with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2011, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in Section 2.11(d). Each such prepayment and commitment reduction shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(b), for the Fiscal Year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Agents and the Lenders) and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered.
(d) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be applied, first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.17(b) and, second, to reduce the Swingline Loans and then Revolving Loans without a permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments. The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.11 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans and Swingline Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.11(d) or 2.17, with respect to the amount of any mandatory prepayment described in Section 2.11 that is allocated to Tranche B Term Loans (such amount, the “Tranche B Prepayment Amount”), at any time when Tranche A Term Loans remain outstanding, the Borrower will, in lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of Tranche B Term Loans, as provided in Section 2.11(d) above, on the date specified in Section 2.11 for such prepayment, give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Tranche B Term Lender a notice (each, a “Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below. As promptly as practicable after receiving such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will send to each Tranche B Term Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, which shall be in the form of Exhibit G, and shall include an offer by the Borrower to prepay on the date (each a “Mandatory Prepayment Date”) that is 10 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice, the relevant Term Loans of such Lender by an amount equal to the portion of the Tranche B Prepayment Amount indicated in such Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Lender’s Tranche B Term Loans. On the Mandatory Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrower shall pay to the relevant Tranche B Term Lenders the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding relevant Term Loans as described above in respect of which such Lenders have accepted prepayment (it being understood that a failure to respond to a Prepayment Option Notice shall be deemed an acceptance of the prepayment referenced therein) and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to the Tranche A Term Lenders an amount equal to the portion of the Tranche B Prepayment Amount not accepted by the relevant Lenders, and such amount shall be applied to the prepayment of the Tranche A Term Loans; provided that if after the application of amounts pursuant to clause (ii), any portion of the Tranche B Prepayment Amount not accepted by the Tranche B Term Lenders shall remain, such amount shall be used to prepay the Tranche B Term Loans on a pro rata basis.
Termination, Reduction and Increase of Commitments (a) Unless previously terminated, the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments and the Yen Commitments shall each terminate on the Maturity Date.
(b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Facility Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures plus the total Competitive Loan Exposures would exceed the total Facility Commitments, (B) the Designated Currency Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Designated Currency Loans would exceed the total Designated Currency Commitments, or (C) the Yen Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Yen Loans would exceed the total Yen Commitments.
(c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least one Business Day (or, to the extent a concurrent prepayment of Loans is required in accordance with Section 2.10, upon the minimum advance notice required in connection with such prepayment under such Section) prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders, the Designated Currency Lenders or the Yen Lenders, as the case may be, in accordance with their respective Facility Commitments, Designated Currency Commitments or Yen Commitments, as applicable.
(d) Upon at least 15 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Company shall have the right, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, to increase the aggregate amount of the Facility Commitments in multiples of $500,000 up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $150,000,000. Any such increase shall apply, at the option of the Company, (x) to the Facility Commitment of one or more Lenders, if such Lender or Lenders consent to such increase, or (y) to the creation of new Facility Commitments of one or more institutions not then a Lender hereunder; provided that (i) if any such institution is not then a Lender hereunder, such institution shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (ii) such existing or new Lender shall execute and deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent an Assumption Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto (an “Assumption Agreement”) and (iii) if any Revolving Loans are outstanding at the time of any such increase, the Company will, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on the date of such increase incur and repay or prepay one or more Revolving Loans from the Lenders in such amounts so that after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Loans shall be outstanding on a pro rata basis (based on the Facility Commitments of the Lenders after giving effect to the changes made pursuant hereto on such date) from all the Lenders. Upon the effectiveness of any increase in Facility Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.08(d), Schedule 2.01(a) hereto shall be automatically amended to reflect such increase. It is understood that any increase in the amount of the Facility Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.08(d) shall not constitute an amendment or modification of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.02.
Termination and Reduction of Revolving Commitments (a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.
(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.08, the sum of the Aggregate Total Exposure would exceed the total Commitments.
(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be applied to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.
(d) If, after giving effect to any reduction of the Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Commitments, such Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.
Mandatory Prepayments Commitment Reductions (a) No later than the tenth calendar day following the date of receipt by any Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale, the Company shall apply all such Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds to repay any outstanding Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(a); provided that, if the Borrower provides written notice to the Administrative Agent within seven calendar days of the date any such Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds are so received of its intention to undertake such an investment, then so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall have the option, directly or indirectly or through one or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries, to invest such Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds within twelve months of receipt thereof in assets of the general type used in the business of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, further, that, if any portion of such Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds have not been so reinvested at the end of such twelve-month period, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to the amount of Net Asset Sale Cash Proceeds that have not been so reinvested as set forth in Section 2.13(a).
(b) No later than the tenth Business Day following the date of receipt by any Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Net Equity Issuance Event Cash Proceeds from any Equity Issuance Event, the Company shall apply 33% of all such Net Equity Issuance Event Cash Proceeds (such amount, the “Equity Prepayment Amount”) to repay any outstanding Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(a), and each such prepayment shall be accompanied by a permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments in an amount equal to such Equity Prepayment Amount.
(c) If at any time, the Aggregate Total Exposure exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall forthwith prepay first, Loans, and second Cash Collateralize the outstanding amount of Letter of Credit Usage at the Agreed L/C Cash Collateral Amount, to the extent necessary so that the Aggregate Total Exposure shall not exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect (or, in the case of Letter of Credit Usage, such amounts are fully Cash Collateralized in compliance with the Agreed Cash Collateral Amount).
(d) If, after giving effect to any termination of or reduction of the Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Commitments, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess (including a corresponding reduction to each Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Issuer Sublimit (ratably) unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and each applicable Issuing Bank).
Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations to fund or participate in Loans or Letters of Credit, Agent may exclude the Commitments and Loans of any Defaulting Lender(s) from the calculation of Pro Rata shares. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(c).
Defaulting Lender Adjustments Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
Reallocation of Pro Rata Share to Reduce Fronting Exposure During any period in which any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Revolving Credit Lender that is a Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.03, the “Pro Rata Share” of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Credit Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of that Non-Defaulting Lender. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. If the allocation described in this clause (iv) cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion).
Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments If the maturity date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the maturity date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Credit Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.03(d)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Credit Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.17. If, for any reason, such Cash Collateral is not provided or the reallocation does not occur, the Revolving Credit Lenders under the maturing tranche shall continue to be responsible for their participating interests in the Letters of Credit. Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the second preceding sentence, the occurrence of a maturity date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such maturity date. Commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit shall be agreed with the Lenders under the extended tranches.
Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Loans If the reallocation described in clause (a)(iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable Law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.15.
