Amounts and Terms of the Advances SECTION 2.01. The A Advances. (a) Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make A Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing until the Termination Date in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed at any time such Lender's Available Commitment, provided that the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be deemed used from time to time to the extent of the aggregate amount of the B Advances then outstanding and such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall be applied to the Lenders ratably according to their respective Percentages (such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments being a "B Reduction"). Each A Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 (or, if lower, the amount of the Available Commitments) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall consist of A Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Percentages. Within the limits of each Lender's Commitment and as hereinabove and hereinafter provided, the Borrower may request Extensions of Credit hereunder, and repay or prepay Advances pursuant to Section 2.11 and utilize the resulting increase in the Available Commitments for further Extensions of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof. (b) In no event shall the Borrower be entitled to request or receive any Extensions of Credit that would cause the principal amount outstanding hereunder to exceed the Commitments.

Advances and Payments (a) On the date requested by the Borrower for the funding of each Loan, the Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of the Lenders, the amount of the Loan to be made by it in accordance with provisions of Article 2 hereof. Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes and requests the Agent to advance for its account, pursuant to the terms hereof, the amount of the Loan to be made by it, and each of the Lenders agrees forthwith to reimburse the Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf by the Agent. If any such reimbursement is not made in immediately available funds on the same day on which the Agent shall have made any such amount available on behalf of any Lender, such Lender shall pay interest to the Agent at a rate per annum equal to the Agent's cost of obtaining overnight funds in the New York Federal Funds Market for the first day following the time when such Lender fails to make the required reimbursement, and thereafter at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Rate. (b) Any amounts received by the Agent in connection with this Agreement or the Notes the application of which is not otherwise provided for, shall be applied, first, to pay accrued but unpaid Commitment Fees in accordance with the Lenders' unused Commitments, second, to pay accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes in proportion to the amounts owed to each Lender, third, to repay the principal balance outstanding on the Notes (allocated in accordance with the outstanding amounts thereof owing to each Lender as set forth on the Schedule of Commitments attached as Schedule 1.1 hereto) and fourth, to pay other amounts payable to the Agent. All amounts to be paid to any of the Lenders by the Agent shall be credited to the Lenders, after collection by the Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in such Lender's correspondent account with the Agent, or as such Lender and the Agent shall from time to time agree.

Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans as to the matters covered:
Availability of Types of Advances If any Lender determines that maintenance of its Eurodollar Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the force of law, or if the Required Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund Eurodollar Advances are not available or (ii) the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Advances does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurodollar Advances, then the Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurodollar Advances and require any affected Eurodollar Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4.
Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19.
Conditions of Advances The Banks and the Agent shall not be obligated to make any Advance hereunder at any time unless: (a) On the Effective Date there shall have been delivered to each Bank the following documents, in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and the following additional conditions shall have been satisfied: (i) The favorable opinion of such counsel for the Borrowers as shall be approved by the Required Banks, with respect to the matters as requested by the Banks, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Banks; (ii) certified copies of such corporate documents of each Borrower, including each Borrower's articles of incorporation, by-laws and a good standing certificate, and such documents evidencing necessary corporate action with respect to this Agreement, the Loans, the Notes and the Security Documents, and certifying to the incumbency of, and attesting to the genuineness of the signatures of, those officers authorized to act on behalf of each Borrower, as the Banks shall request; (iii) the Security Documents required as of the Effective Date under Section 5.1 duly executed on behalf of the Borrowers, together with evidence of the recordation, filing and other action in such jurisdictions as the Banks may deem necessary or appropriate with respect to the Security Documents and evidence of the first-priority of the Banks' liens and security interests under the Security Documents, subject only to Permitted Liens, including without limitation such additional mortgages, security agreements, pledge agreements, other documents and opinions of counsel required by the Banks and original stock certificates and assignments separate from certificate of each Person whose stock is required to be pledged; (iv) the Notes duly executed on behalf of the Borrowers, and it is acknowledged and agreed that the Notes: (A) are issued in exchange and replacement for the promissory notes issued pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, (B) shall not be deemed a novation or to have satisfied such promissory notes and (C) evidence the same indebtedness evidenced by such promissory notes plus additional indebtedness; (v) the Consent and Amendment of Security Documents duly executed by the Borrowers; (vi) Payment of such fees agreed to among the Borrowers and the Agent; (vii) the execution by the Borrowers of the Agent's standard environmental certificate; (viii) the Banks shall have determined that the Loans to be made are equal to or less than the Borrowing Base; (ix) copies of all agreements relating to any material Indebtedness for borrowed money, any outstanding preferred stock, any joint ventures or partnerships or any other material documents requested by the Banks; (x) the originals of all promissory notes payable to any Borrower, other than promissory notes in an aggregate amount less than $1,000,000; (xi) such other agreements, documents, conditions and certificates as reasonably requested by the Banks, including without limitation, releases and terminations of all other Liens which are not permitted hereunder and amendments of existing Security Documents, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Banks. (b) The aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances after giving effect to the proposed Advance, does not exceed the lesser of the Commitments or the Borrowing Base. (c) On and as of the date of each such Advance, the representations and warranties contained in Section 6 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects as if made on such date; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 3.2(c) the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.7 hereof shall be deemed made with respect to both the financial statements referred to therein and the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii) and (iii). (d) No Default or event or condition which could cause a Material Adverse Effect has occurred and is continuing or will exist upon the disbursement of such Advance. Acceptance of the proceeds of any Advance hereunder by the Borrowers shall be deemed to be a certification by the Borrowers at such time with respect to the matters set forth in subparagraphs (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 3.2.
