Nothing in this Section 2.27 shall be construed to obligate any Lender to execute an Incremental Loan Activation Notice. (c) On any Commitment Increase Date, in the event any Loans under the Facility are then outstanding, (i) each relevant Incremental Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine are necessary in order to cause, after giving effect to such increased Commitments and the application of such amounts to prepay Loans under the Facility of other relevant Lenders, the Loans under the Facility to be held ratably by all Lenders with Commitments in the Facility in accordance with such Commitments after giving effect to such increase, (ii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have prepaid and reborrowed all outstanding Loans under this Agreement and (iii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the relevant Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.22 as a result of such prepayment.

Refunding of Swing Line Loans (a) Either the Swing Line Agent or the Administrative Agent, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may, and on the seventh day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day following the seventh day) after the Borrowing Date with respect to any Swing Line Loans to a Borrower shall, on behalf of such Borrower (and each Borrower hereby irrevocably directs the Swing Line Agent and Administrative Agent to so act on its behalf and with respect to such Borrower), upon notice given by the Swing Line Agent to the Administrative Agent, or by the Administrative Agent, no later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the relevant refunding date, request each Lender to make, and, subject to Section 2.2(b), each Lender hereby agrees to make, a Revolving Credit Loan to such Borrower, at the rate applicable to the Swing Line Loans of such Borrower, in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Swing Line Loans of such Borrower (the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date of such notice, to repay the Swing Line Lenders. Each Lender shall make the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan available to the Administrative Agent at its office set forth in Section 9.2 in immediately available funds, no later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date of such notice. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Swing Line Lenders and immediately applied by the Swing Line Lenders to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loans. Effective on the day such Revolving Credit Loans are made, the portion of the Swing Line Loans so paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing Line Loans. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, if prior to the seventh day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day following such seventh day) after the Borrowing Date with respect to any Swing Line Loan, any Swing Line Lender lending such Swing Line Loan requests the refunding of such Swing Line Loan as described in the first sentence above, the Administrative Agent shall effect the refunding of all outstanding Swing Line Loan as described above. (b) The making of any Swing Line Loan hereunder at the request of a Borrower shall be subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent thereto set forth in Section 4 (unless otherwise waived in accordance with Section 9.1). (c) If prior to the making of a Revolving Credit Loan to a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.15(a) one of the events described in paragraph (e) of Section 7 shall have occurred with respect to such Borrower, each Lender severally, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that it shall purchase a participating interest in the applicable Swing Line Loans (“Unrefunded Swing Line Loans”) in an amount equal to the amount (if any) of Revolving Credit Loans which would otherwise have been made by such Lender pursuant to Section 2.15(a). Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation (the “Swing Line Participation Amount”), and the proceeds of such participation shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Swing Line Lenders in such amount as will reduce the amount of the participating interest retained by the Swing Line Lenders in their Swing Line Loans to the amount of the Revolving Credit Loans which were to have been made by it pursuant to Section 2.15(a).
Optional Increase in Commitments (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.06(c)(ii), upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may increase the Commitments then in effect by increasing the Commitment of a Lender or by causing a Person approved as a Lender by the Administrative Agent to become a Lender (each an “Additional Lender”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.06(c) (such additional Commitments, the “Additional Commitments”). (ii) If the Borrower elects to increase the total Commitments by increasing the Commitment of a Lender, the Borrower and such Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 (a “Commitment Increase Agreement”), and the Borrower shall deliver a new Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment after giving effect to such increase, and otherwise duly completed. (iii) If the Borrower elects to increase the total Commitments by causing an Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement, the Borrower and such approved Additional Lender(s) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 (an “Additional Lender Agreement”), such Additional Lender(s) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, and the Borrower shall, if requested by such Additional Lender, deliver a Note payable to such Additional Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment, and otherwise duly completed. (iv) Any increase in the Commitments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) such increase shall not be less than $50,000,000 unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, and no such increase shall be permitted if after giving effect thereto the aggregate value of all increases to the Commitments during the Availability Period would exceed $200,000,000; (B) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately prior to the effective date of such increase or after giving effect to such increase; (C) no Lender’s Commitment may be increased without the consent of such Lender; (D) on the effective date of such increase, no Eurodollar Borrowings shall be outstanding or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the effective date of such increase shall be the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings unless the Borrower pays any compensation required by Section 5.02 (unless otherwise waived by all Lenders); (E) the pro forma Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of the effective date of such increase (calculated in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) does not exceed the applicable maximum ratio for the last day of the fiscal quarter in which such increase occurs as set forth in Section 9.01(b) assuming that, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of such date, the Lenders have made Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the aggregate Commitments (including the amount of the increase in the Commitments on such date); and (F) any Additional Commitments shall be on terms and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the initial Commitments on the date hereof. (v) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(vi) from and after the effective date specified in the Commitment Increase Agreement or the Additional Lender Agreement (or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings, unless the Borrower has paid the compensation, if any, required by Section 5.02): (A) the amount of the Commitments shall be increased as set forth therein, and (B) in the case of an Additional Lender Agreement, any Additional Lender party thereto shall be a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, (unless all Lenders have increased their respective Commitments proportionately and there is no Additional Lender) then Borrower shall borrow from each increasing Lender and Additional Lender and shall make prepayments to the other Lenders (all without restriction by any otherwise applicable restrictions on borrowing or prepaying hereunder), and each increasing Lender and/or the Additional Lender, as applicable, shall purchase (and the other Lenders shall sell) participation interests in Letters of Credit, such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender, if applicable) shall hold its Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests in Letters of Credit) after giving effect to the increase in the Commitments. (vi) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Commitment Increase Agreement or an Additional Lender Agreement, executed by the Borrower and the Lender or the Borrower and the Additional Lender party thereto, as applicable, and the Administrative Questionnaire referred to in Section 2.06(c)(iii), if applicable, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Commitment Increase Agreement or Additional Lender Agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.04(c). No increase in the Commitments shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 2.06(c)(vi).
Step Increases (a) The following is the method used to determine service credit, since the last date of hire, for purposes of positioning on the salary range: i) all continuous service shall be retained and transferred with the employee if she/he changes her/his status from full-time to part- time and vice versa. ii) a part-time employee who changes status to full-time will be given credit on the basis of fifteen hundred (1500) paid hours of part- time being equivalent to one (1) year of full-time service and vice versa. iii) in addition, an employee who is so transferred will be given credit for paid hours accumulated since the date of last advancement. (b) Annual increments for full-time employees shall be paid on their anniversary date. (c) Annual increments for part-time employees shall be paid on the completion of each fifteen hundred (1500) hours worked.
Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party or the General Partner acting on behalf of such Loan Party (x) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (y) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such representation or warranty is already subject to a materiality qualifier, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such representation or warranty is already subject to a materiality qualifier, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.14, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01, (B) no Default exists or would result from such increase and (C) giving effect to such increase and any contemporaneous increase of any other Applicable Secured Indebtedness, the aggregate amount of Applicable Secured Indebtedness is less than or equal to $2,100,000,000. In addition, mortgage amendments and date-down endorsements reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent shall have been delivered and the items described in clause (g) of the definition of “Material Real Property Mortgage Deliverables” shall have been delivered to the extent applicable. The Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on the Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.
Refinancing of Swing Line Loans (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Committed Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan) for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender. (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Committed Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Committed Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation. (iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
