The execution, delivery and performance by each Obligor of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents to which it is a party do not and will not (i) (A) violate any provision of any law or any governmental rule or regulation or order applicable to or binding on such Obligor, (B) violate any provision of the Certificate or Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of such Obligor, (C) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any Contractual Obligation of such Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries except to the extent of any such violation, conflict, breach, default, or imposition of Lien (of which no Obligor has Actual Knowledge) which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (D) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of the Collateral (except as permitted in the applicable Collateral Document) or on any other property (except as permitted under Section 5.13 hereof), or (ii) require any approval of stockholders or any approval or consent of any Person under any Contractual Obligation of such Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries, except for such approvals or consents which will have been obtained on or before the Closing Date, except for any such approval or consent under a Contractual Obligation and the failure to obtain which could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. (b) The execution, delivery and performance by each Obligor of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the use of the proceeds of the Loans do not and will not require any registration with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action to, with or by, any federal, state or other Governmental Authority or regulatory body or any other Person which is required to be obtained or made on or prior to the Closing Date and which has not previously been obtained or made. (c) Each Obligor has duly executed and delivered each of the Loan Documents to which it is party and each such Loan Document is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Obligor, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, including materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (d) No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of Regulations U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.
Manner of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates (a) Notice to the Administrative Agent. RCE, on behalf of itself or any other Borrower, shall give notice to the Administrative Agent by no later than: (i) 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) at least three Business Days before the date on which RCE on behalf of the applicable Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, (ii) at least three Business Days before the date on which RCE, on behalf of the Borrowers, requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Term Loans which shall be the Fixed Rate Loan, and (iii) 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date RCE on behalf of the applicable Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such notice of a new Borrowing. Thereafter, RCE, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, may (except with respect to the Fixed Rate Loan) from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to the minimum amount requirement contained in Section 1.5 for each outstanding Borrowing, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, RCE, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, may (subject to the notice requirement set forth herein) continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans or (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, RCE, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower, may (subject to the notice requirement set forth herein) convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by RCE, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower. RCE, on behalf of itself or the applicable Borrower shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by telephone or telecopy (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (Notice of Borrowing) or Exhibit C (Notice of Continuation/Conversion), as applicable, or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Notices of the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans or of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no later than 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) at least three Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion. All such notices concerning the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (i) there shall be no Fixed Rate Loans available hereunder other than the $30,000,000 Borrowing of Term Loans advanced on the Closing Date and (ii) the Borrowers shall have no right to convert all of any portion of such Fixed Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan or Base Rate Loan. The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such telephonic or telecopy notice given by any person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative of RCE without the necessity of independent investigation and, in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon.
Conditions Precedent to Each Competitive Bid Borrowing The obligation of each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance on the occasion of a Competitive Bid Borrowing to make such Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing is subject to the conditions precedent that (a) the Agent shall have received the written confirmatory Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing with respect thereto, (b) on or before the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, but prior to such Competitive Bid Borrowing, the Agent shall have received a Competitive Bid Note payable to the order of such Lender for each of the one or more Competitive Bid Advances to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Advance to be evidenced thereby and otherwise on such terms as were agreed to for such Competitive Bid Advance in accordance with Section 2.03, and (c) on the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing the following statements shall be true (and each of the giving of the applicable Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing and the acceptance by the Borrower of the proceeds of such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that on the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing such statements are true): (i) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 (except the representations set forth in subsection (f) or (g)(i) thereof) are correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, before and after giving effect to such Competitive Bid Borrowing and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, as though made on and as of such date; and (ii) no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Competitive Bid Borrowing or from the application of the proceeds therefrom, that constitutes a Default.
Authorization of Borrowing The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of each Loan Party that is a party thereto.
Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings The Borrower shall have the right at any time (subject to Section 2.02(b)) upon prior written or fax notice to the Administrative Agent (i) not later than 12:30 p.m., one Business Day prior to conversion, to convert any Eurodollar Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing and (ii) not later than 12:30 p.m., three Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR Borrowing into a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, subject in each case to the following: (a) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing; (b) if less than all of the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations specified in Sections 2.02(b) and 2.02(c) regarding the principal amount and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type; (c) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent recording, for the account of such Lender, the Type of such Loan resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount; accrued interest on any Eurodollar Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of conversion; and (d) if any Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16. Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable (subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.15) and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the Borrower requests be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be converted into an ABR Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings or Protective Advances, which shall at all times be ABR Borrowings.
Conversion and Continuation of Loans The Lead Borrower on behalf of the Borrowers shall have the right at any time, (a) on three (3) Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice, to be effective, must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, Boston time, on the third Business Day preceding the date of any conversion), (x) to convert any outstanding Borrowings of Prime Rate Loans (but in no event Swingline Loans) to Borrowings of LIBO Loans, or (y) to continue an outstanding Borrowing of LIBO Loans for an additional Interest Period, (b) on one Business Day’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice, to be effective, must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, Boston time, on the date of any conversion), to convert any outstanding Borrowings of LIBO Loans to a Borrowing of Prime Rate Loans, subject to the following: (i) without the consent of the Required Lenders, no Borrowing of Loans may be converted into, or continued as, LIBO Loans at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) if less than a full Borrowing of Loans is converted, such conversion shall be made pro rata among the Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing held by such Lenders immediately prior to such conversion; (iii) the aggregate principal amount of Loans being converted into or continued as LIBO Loans shall be in an integral of $1,000,000 and at least $5,000,000; (iv) each Lender shall effect each conversion by applying the proceeds of its new LIBO Loan or Prime Rate Loan, as the case may be, to its Loan being so converted; (v) the Interest Period with respect to a Borrowing of LIBO Loans effected by a conversion or in respect to the Borrowing of LIBO Loans being continued as LIBO Loans shall commence on the date of conversion or the expiration of the current Interest Period applicable to such continued Borrowing, as the case may be; (vi) a Borrowing of LIBO Loans may be converted only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto; (vii) each request for a conversion or continuation of a Borrowing of LIBO Loans which fails to state an applicable Interest Period shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month; and (viii) no more than fifteen (15) Borrowings of LIBO Loans may be outstanding at any time. If the Lead Borrower does not give notice to convert any Borrowing of Prime Rate Loans, or does not give notice to continue, or does not have the right to continue, any Borrowing as LIBO Loans, in each case as provided above, such Borrowing shall automatically be converted to, or continued as, as applicable, a Borrowing of Prime Rate Loans at the expiration of the then current Interest Period. The Administrative Agent shall, after it receives notice from the Borrower, promptly give each Lender notice of any conversion, in whole or part, of any Loan made by such Lender.
Conditions Precedent to Borrowing The obligation of the Liquidity Provider to make an Advance on the occasion of each Borrowing shall be subject to the conditions precedent that the Effective Date shall have occurred and, prior to the date of such Borrowing, the Borrower shall have delivered a Notice of Borrowing which conforms to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and has been completed as may be required by the relevant form of the Notice of Borrowing for the type of Advances requested.
Method of Borrowing (a) To request an Advance hereunder, the Company shall: (i) give notification by telephone (which notification shall be made on the Borrowing Date, may be made either before or after delivery of the Advance Request referred to in clause (ii) below and shall be subject to Section 3.5(b)) to the Administrative Agent that the Advance Request has been or will be delivered to the Administrative Agent and, if not yet delivered, the amount of the Advance, the Applicable Tranche and the respective currency that will be requested in such Advance Request (such telephone notification, the “Advance Request Confirmation”), (ii) deliver, by email prior to the Applicable Borrower Notice Deadline: (A) a notice to the Administrative Agent of such request for Applicable Tranche Revolving Loans or Applicable Tranche Swingline Loans in substantially the form of Exhibit H attached hereto (an “Advance Request”), which Advance Request shall be executed by an officer of the Company listed on an incumbency certificate (in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto, delivered to the Administrative Agent, as updated in writing by the Company from time to time) and delivered to the Administrative Agent’s Office applicable for such Applicable Tranche, and shall specify: (1) the aggregate amount of the requested Advance; (2) the date of such Advance, which shall be a Business Day; (3) the Applicable Tranche under which such Advance is requested; (4) whether such Advance is requested as an Applicable Tranche Revolving Loan or Applicable Tranche Swingline Loan; (5) the currency of the Loans to be borrowed (if the Company fails to specify a currency in an Advance Request, then the Loan so requested shall be made in U.S. Dollars) (it being understood that a Clearing Member Customer Gold Warrant Advance may only be denominated in U.S. Dollars); (6) whether such Advance shall be initially secured by any Clearing Member Customer Gold Warrant Advance Deposit Account or any Clearing Member Customer Gold Warrant Advance Deposit Account Collateral (any such advance, a “Clearing Member Customer Gold Warrant Advance”); and (7) the location and number of the Company’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which (x) in the case of an Advance (other than a Clearing Member Customer Gold Warrant Advance) to be made in U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euro or Sterling, shall be a deposit account of the Company’s maintained with the Administrative Agent, (y) in the case of an Advance (other than a Clearing Member Customer Gold Warrant Advance) to be made in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euro or Sterling, shall be an account maintained with the Administrative Agent or another financial institution or (z) in the case of a Clearing Member Customer Gold Warrant Advance shall be one or more Clearing Member Customer Gold Warrant Advance Deposit Accounts; and (B) a notice to the Collateral Agent and Collateral Monitoring Agent in substantially the form of Exhibit I attached hereto detailing the Collateral pledged by the Company to secure the requested Advance (a “Collateral Notice”), which Collateral Notice shall be executed by an officer of the Company listed on an incumbency certificate (in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto, delivered to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Monitoring Agent, as updated in writing by the Company from time to time) and delivered to the Collateral Agent’s Office and the Collateral Monitoring Agent’s Office, and (iii) give separate notification, by telephone, to the Collateral Agent that the Collateral Notice has been delivered to the Collateral Agent. Concurrently with, or shortly following, or in lieu of, its making an Advance Request in respect of Applicable Tranche Revolving Loans, the Company may also make an Advance Request in respect of Applicable Tranche Swingline Loans. An Advance Request in respect of Swingline Loans shall also specify (1) the Banks being requested to act as an Applicable Tranche Swingline Bank with respect to such Advance and make Applicable Tranche Swingline Loans and the respective amounts thereof, and (2) if such Applicable Tranche Swingline Loans are being requested on the same day as any Applicable Tranche Revolving Loans, whether such Applicable Tranche Swingline Loans are to cover for any Applicable Tranche Revolving Loans not made available to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner (any such Applicable Tranche Swingline Loan, an “Applicable Tranche Covering Swingline Loan”) or are simply being requested in addition to such Applicable Tranche Revolving Loans. If any Applicable Tranche Swingline Loans being requested are Applicable Tranche Covering Swingline Loans, the Administrative Agent shall first, use the proceeds of the Applicable Tranche Revolving Loans timely made available to it to fund the requested Advance as provided in Section 3.1(b), and second, fund the remaining portion of the requested Advance, if any, with the proceeds made available to it in respect of one or more Applicable Tranche Covering Swingline Loans, subject to Section 3.1(c). For the avoidance of doubt, the provision of Applicable Tranche Swingline Loans by any Applicable Tranche Swingline Bank shall be in addition to, and shall not relieve such Bank from its obligation to make Applicable Tranche Revolving Loans ratably in proportion to the amount of its Applicable Tranche Commitment. In the event the Company is unable to submit any such notices via email (due to operational difficulties or otherwise), the Administrative Agent may, to the extent commercially reasonable and following telephone notices by the Company requesting same, agree to accept such notices via other electronic delivery methods.
Conditions Precedent to Each Borrowing The obligation of each Bank to make an Advance on the occasion of each Borrowing to any Borrower (including the initial Borrowing) shall be subject to the further conditions precedent that on the date of such Borrowing: (a) the following statements shall be true (and each of the giving of the applicable Notice of Borrowing and the acceptance by a Borrower of the proceeds of such Borrowing shall constitute a representation and warranty by such Borrower that on the date of such Borrowing such statements are true): (i) The representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 (excluding those contained in the second sentence of subsection (e) and in subsection (f) thereof), and if such Borrowing is by CFSC, CIF or CFKK, Section 4.02, are correct on and as of the date of such Borrowing, before and after giving effect to such Borrowing and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, as though made on and as of such date, and (ii) No event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Borrowing or from the application of the proceeds therefrom, which constitutes an Event of Default with respect to any Borrower; and (b) the Agent shall have received such other approvals, opinions or documents as any Bank through the Agent may reasonably request.
Conditions Precedent to Initial Borrowing The initial Borrowing under this Agreement is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent, except as otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
