Lenders’ Credit Decisions Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or the directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys of the Administrative Agent or of any other Lender, and instead in reliance upon information supplied to it by or on behalf of Borrower and upon such other information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own independent credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also agrees that it shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or the directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys of the Administrative Agent or of any other Lender, continue to make its own independent credit analyses and decisions in acting or not acting under the Loan Documents.
Commitment to Lend Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Credit Agreement, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agrees to lend to the Borrower and the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow from time to time from the Funding Date up to but not including the Revolving Credit Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with §2.6, such sums as are requested by the Borrower up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment minus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the sum of the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, provided that the sum of the outstanding aggregate amount of all Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) plus the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations shall not at any time exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment at such time. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Each request for a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions set forth in §12 and §13, in the case of the initial Revolving Credit Loans to be made on the Funding Date, and §13, in the case of all other Revolving Credit Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such request.
The Lender Group’s Liability for Collateral Each Borrower hereby agrees that: (a) so long as Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code, the Lender Group shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrowers.
Non-U.S. Lenders For each New Term Loan Lender that is a Non-U.S. Lender, delivered herewith to Administrative Agent are such forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as such New Term Loan Lender may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.20(d) of the Credit Agreement.
Credit Decisions Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently of the Administrative Agent and each other Lender, and based on such Lender’s review of the financial information of the Borrower, the Loan Documents (the terms and provisions of which being satisfactory to such Lender) and such other documents, information and investigations as such Lender has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend its Commitments. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of the Administrative Agent and each other Lender, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under the Loan Documents.
Letter of Credit Accommodations (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, at the request of any Borrower, Agent agrees, for the ratable risk of each Revolving Loan Lender according to its Pro Rata Share, to provide or arrange for Letter of Credit Accommodations for the account of Borrowers containing terms and conditions acceptable to Agent and the issuer thereof. Any payments made by or on behalf of Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender to any issuer thereof and/or related parties in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations provided to or for the benefit of any Borrower shall constitute additional Revolving Loans to Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2 (or Special Agent Advances as the case may be). (b) In addition to any charges, fees or expenses charged by any bank or issuer in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations, Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders, a letter of credit fee at a rate equal to five-eighths percent (.625%) per annum on the daily outstanding balance of the Letter of Credit Accommodations in respect of commercial Letter of Credit Accommodations and a letter of credit fee at a rate equal to the Applicable Margin for standby Letter of Credit Accommodations on the daily outstanding balance of the Letter of Credit Accommodations in respect of standby Letter of Credit Accommodations (the “Letter of Credit Fee”), in each case for the immediately preceding month (or part thereof), payable in arrears as of the first day of each succeeding month; provided, that, Agent may, and upon the written direction of the Required Revolving Loan Lenders shall, require Borrowers to pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders, such Letter of Credit Fee, at a rate that is (2%) percent per annum greater than the otherwise applicable rate on such daily outstanding balance for: (i) the period from and after the date of termination or non-renewal hereof until Agent and Lenders have received full and final payment of all Obligations (notwithstanding entry of a judgment against any Borrower) and (ii) the period from and after the date of the occurrence of an Event of Default for so long as such Event of Default is continuing as determined by Agent. Such Letter of Credit Fee shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed and the obligation of Borrowers to pay such fee shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement. (c) A Borrower shall give Agent one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of such Borrower’s request for the issuance of a commercial Letter of Credit Accommodation and two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice of such Borrower’s request for the issuance of a stand-by Letter of Credit Accommodation. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the original face amount of the Letter of Credit Accommodation requested, the effective date (which date shall be a Business Day) of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit Accommodation, whether such Letter of Credit Accommodations may be drawn in a single or in partial draws, the date on which such requested Letter of Credit Accommodation is to expire (which date shall be a Business Day), the purpose for which such Letter of Credit Accommodation is to be issued, and the beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit Accommodation. Such Borrower shall attach to such notice the proposed terms of the Letter of Credit Accommodation. (d) In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent contained in Section 4 hereof and the other terms and conditions contained herein, no Letter of Credit Accommodations shall be available unless each of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied in a manner satisfactory to Agent: (i) the applicable Borrower shall have delivered to the proposed issuer of such Letter of Credit Accommodation at such times and in such manner as such proposed issuer may require, an application, in form and substance satisfactory to such proposed issuer and Agent, for the issuance of the Letter of Credit Accommodation and such other documents as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof, and the form and terms of the proposed Letter of Credit Accommodation shall be satisfactory to Agent and such proposed issuer, (ii) as of the date of issuance, no order of any court, arbitrator or other Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain money center banks generally from issuing letters of credit of the type and in the amount of the proposed Letter of Credit Accommodation, and no law, rule or regulation applicable to money center banks generally and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over money center banks generally shall prohibit, or request that the proposed issuer of such Letter of Credit Accommodation refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the issuance of such Letters of Credit Accommodation; and (iii) after giving effect to the LC Reserve Amount applicable to such requested Letter of Credit Accommodation, the aggregate amount of the Obligations then outstanding would not exceed the Borrowing Base. Effective on the issuance of each Letter of Credit Accommodation, a Reserve shall be established in an amount equal to the LC Reserve Amount for such Letter of Credit Accommodation. (e) Except with the consent of all Lenders, the amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and all other commitments and obligations made or incurred by Agent or any Lender in connection therewith shall not at any time exceed $75,000,000. (f) Each Borrower and Guarantor shall indemnify and hold Agent and Revolving Loan Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses which Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodations and any documents, drafts or acceptances relating thereto, including any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses due to any action taken by any issuer or correspondent with respect to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, except for such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses that are a direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Borrower assumes all risks with respect to the acts or omissions of the drawer under or beneficiary of any Letter of Credit Accommodation and for such purposes the drawer or beneficiary shall be deemed such Borrower’s agent. Each Borrower assumes all risks for, and agrees to pay, all foreign, Federal, State and local taxes, duties and levies relating to any goods subject to any Letter of Credit Accommodations or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby releases and holds Agent and Revolving Loan Lenders harmless from and against any acts, waivers, errors, delays or omissions, whether caused by such Borrower or Guarantor, by any issuer or correspondent or otherwise with respect to or relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section 2.2(f) shall survive the payment of Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. (g) At any time during an Availability Compliance Period, in connection with Inventory purchased pursuant to Letter of Credit Accommodations during such Availability Compliance Period, each Borrower and Guarantor shall, at Agent’s request, instruct all suppliers, carriers, forwarders, customs brokers, warehouses or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory, documents or instruments in which Agent holds a security interest to deliver them to Agent and/or subject to Agent’s order, and if they shall come into such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s possession, to deliver them, upon Agent’s request, to Agent in their original form. Each Borrower and Guarantor shall also, at Agent’s request, designate Agent as the consignee on all bills of lading and other negotiable and non-negotiable documents. (h) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation to name such Borrower as the account party therein and to deliver to Agent all instruments, documents and other writings and property received by issuer pursuant to the Letter of Credit Accommodations and to accept and rely upon Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations or the applications therefor. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or construed to grant any Borrower any right or authority to pledge the credit of Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender in any manner. Agent and Revolving Loan Lenders shall have no liability of any kind with respect to any Letter of Credit Accommodation provided by an issuer other than Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender unless Agent has duly executed and delivered to such issuer the application or a guarantee or indemnification in writing with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation. Borrowers shall be bound by any reasonable interpretation made in good faith by Agent, or any other issuer or correspondent under or in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodation or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder, notwithstanding that such interpretation may be inconsistent with any instructions from any Borrower. (i) At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall have the right and authority to, and no Borrower or Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Agent, (i) approve or resolve any questions of non-compliance of documents, (ii) give any instructions as to acceptance or rejection of any documents or goods, (iii) execute any and all applications for steamship or airway guaranties, indemnities or delivery orders, (iv) grant any extensions of the maturity of, time of payments for, or time of presentation of, any drafts, acceptances, or documents, and (v) agree to any amendments, renewals, extensions, modifications, changes or cancellations of any of the terms or conditions of any of the applications, Letter of Credit Accommodations, or documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder or any letters of credit included in the Collateral. Agent may take such actions either in its own name or in any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s name. (j) At any time, so long as no Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, any Borrower may, with Agent’s consent, (i) grant any extensions of the maturity of, time of payment for, or time of presentation of, any drafts, acceptances, or documents, and (ii) agree to any amendments, renewals, extensions, modifications, changes or cancellations of any of the terms or conditions of any of the applications, Letter of Credit Accommodations, or documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder or any letters of credit included in the Collateral; provided, that, such Borrower may approve or resolve any questions of non-compliance of documents following notice to Agent thereof and without Agent’s consent except as otherwise provided in Section 2.2(i) hereof. (k) Any rights, remedies, duties or obligations granted or undertaken by any Borrower to any issuer or correspondent in any application for any Letter of Credit Accommodation, or any other agreement in favor of any issuer or correspondent relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, shall be deemed to have been granted or undertaken by such Borrower to Agent for the ratable benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders. Any duties or obligations undertaken by Agent to any issuer or correspondent in any application for any Letter of Credit Accommodation, or any other agreement by Agent in favor of any issuer or correspondent to the extent relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, shall be deemed to have been undertaken by such Borrower to Agent for the ratable benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders and to apply in all respects to such Borrower. (l) Immediately upon the issuance or amendment of any Letter of Credit Accommodation, each Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Revolving Loan Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the liability with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation (including, without limitation, all Obligations with respect thereto). (m) Borrowers and Guarantors are irrevocably and unconditionally, jointly and severally, obligated, without presentment, demand or protest, to pay to Agent any amounts paid by an issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation (whether through the borrowing of Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.2(a) hereof or otherwise). In the event that Borrowers and Guarantors fail to pay Agent on the date of any payment under a Letter of Credit Accommodation in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, Agent (to the extent it has actual notice thereof) shall promptly notify each Revolving Loan Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such payment and each Revolving Loan Lender agrees, upon one (1) Business Day’s notice, to fund to Agent the purchase of its participation in such Letter of Credit Accommodation in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the unpaid amount. The obligation of each Revolving Loan Lender to deliver to Agent an amount equal to its respective participation pursuant to the foregoing sentence is absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuance of any Event of Default, the failure to satisfy any other condition set forth in Section 4 hereof or any other event or circumstance. If such amount is not made available by a Revolving Loan Lender when due, Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Loan Lender with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount was due until the date such amount is paid to Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Agent’s demand, at the highest Revolving Loan Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof applicable to Prime Rate Loans.
Conditions Precedent to all Credit Extensions Bank’s obligations to make each Credit Extension, including the initial Credit Extension, is subject to the following conditions precedent: (a) timely receipt of an executed Payment/Advance Form; (b) the representations and warranties in this Agreement shall be true, accurate, and complete in all material respects on the date of the Payment/Advance Form and on the Funding Date of each Credit Extension; provided, however, that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof; and provided, further that those representations and warranties expressly referring to a specific date shall be true, accurate and complete in all material respects as of such date, and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or result from the Credit Extension. Each Credit Extension is Borrower’s representation and warranty on that date that the representations and warranties in this Agreement remain true, accurate, and complete in all material respects; provided, however, that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof; and provided, further that those representations and warranties expressly referring to a specific date shall be true, accurate and complete in all material respects as of such date; and (c) Bank determines to its satisfaction that there has not been a Material Adverse Change.
The Commitments (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on or after the Initial Borrowing Date and prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, a revolving loan or revolving loans (each, a “Revolving Loan” and, collectively, the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower, which Revolving Loans (i) shall be denominated in the respective Available Currency elected by the Borrower, (ii) shall, at the option of Borrower, be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into, Base Rate Loans, Eurodollar Loans, Euro Denominated Loans or Sterling Denominated Loans, provided that except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 2.10(b), all Revolving Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times be of the same Type, (iii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof, (iv) shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender in any instance where the incurrence thereof (after giving effect to the use of the proceeds thereof on the date of the incurrence thereof to repay any amounts theretofore outstanding pursuant to this Agreement) would cause the Aggregate Exposure to exceed the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) and (v) in the case of any Borrowing of (A) Euro Denominated Loans shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender in any instance where the incurrence thereof would cause the Euro Denominated Obligations to exceed the Maximum Euro Denominated Obligations Amount or (B) Sterling Denominated Loans shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender in any instance where the incurrence thereof would cause the Sterling Denominated Obligations to exceed the Maximum Sterling Denominated Loan Amount. (b) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on or after the Initial Borrowing Date and prior to the Swingline Expiry Date, a revolving loan or revolving loans (each, a “Swingline Loan” and, collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) to the Borrower, which Swingline Loans (i) shall be incurred and maintained as Base Rate Loans, (ii) shall be denominated in Dollars, (iii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof, (iv) shall not exceed in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding, when combined with the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding and the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time, an amount equal to the Total Commitment at such time, (v) shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender in any instance where the incurrence thereof (after giving effect to the use of the proceeds thereof on the date of the incurrence thereof to repay any amounts theretofore outstanding pursuant to this Agreement) would cause the Aggregate Exposure to exceed the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) and (vi) shall not exceed in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding the Maximum Swingline Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.01(b), (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swingline Loans at a time when a Lender Default exists with respect to an Lender unless the Swingline Lender has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate the Swingline Lender’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender’s or Defaulting Lenders’ participation in such Swingline Loans, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s or Defaulting Lenders’ RL Percentage of the outstanding Swingline Loans, and (ii) the Swingline Lender shall not make any Swingline Loan after it has received written notice from the Borrower, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders stating that a Default or an Event of Default exists and is continuing until such time as the Swingline Lender shall have received written notice (A) of rescission of all such notices from the party or parties originally delivering such notice or notices or (B) of the waiver of such Default or Event of Default by the Required Lenders. (c) On any Business Day, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, give notice to the Lenders that the Swingline Lender’s outstanding Swingline Loans shall be funded with one or more Borrowings of Revolving Loans (provided that such notice shall be deemed to have been automatically given upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 11.05 or upon the exercise of any of the remedies provided in the last paragraph of Section 11), in which case one or more Borrowings of Revolving Loans constituting Base Rate Loans (each such Borrowing, a “Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day by all Lenders pro rata based on each such Lender’s RL Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 11) and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly by the Swingline Lender to repay the Swingline Lender for such outstanding Swingline Loans. Each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make Revolving Loans upon one Business Day’s notice pursuant to each Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the date specified in writing by the Swingline Lender notwithstanding (i) the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the Minimum Borrowing Amount otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 7 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing, and (v) the amount of the Borrowing Base or Total Commitment at such time. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrower), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause the Lenders to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective RL Percentages (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 11), provided that (x) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is required to be purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be payable to the participant from and after such date and (y) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the overnight Federal Funds Rate for the first three days and at the interest rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans hereunder for each day thereafter. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.01(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to establish reserves in such amounts, and with respect to such matters, as the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall deem necessary or appropriate, against the Borrowing Base, including, without limitation, reserves with respect to (i) sums that the Borrower is or will be required to pay (such as taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) and have not yet paid (including, without limitation, a Rent Reserve against Eligible Inventory included in the Borrowing Base) and (ii) amounts owing by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries to any Person to the extent secured by a Lien on, or trust over, any of the Collateral, which Lien or trust, in the Permitted Discretion of the Administrative Agent is capable of ranking senior in priority to or pari passu with one or more of the Liens granted in the Security Documents (such as Liens or trusts in favor of landlords, warehousemen, carriers, mechanics, materialmen, laborers, or suppliers, or Liens or trusts for ad valorem, excise, sales, or other taxes where given priority under applicable law) in and to such item of the Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to have the Borrower’s and each Wholly-Owned Subsidiary Guarantor’s Inventory reappraised by a qualified appraisal company selected by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.01(p) after the Initial Borrowing Date for the purpose of re-determining the Net Orderly Liquidation Value of the Eligible Inventory, and, as a result, re-determining the Borrowing Base. (e) In the event the Borrower is unable to comply with (i) the Borrowing Base limitations set forth in Sections 2.01(a) or (ii) the conditions precedent to the making of Revolving Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit set forth in Section 7, (x) the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower, which, in each case, may only be made as Base Rate Loans (each, an “Agent Advance”) for a period commencing on the date the Administrative Agent first receives a Notice of Borrowing requesting an Agent Advance until the earlier of (i) the twentieth Business Day after such date, (ii) the date the Borrower is again able to comply with the Borrowing Base limitations and the conditions precedent to the making of Revolving Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit, or obtains an amendment or waiver with respect thereto or (iii) the date the Required Lenders instruct the Administrative Agent to cease making Agent Advances (in each case, the “Agent Advance Period”). The Administrative Agent shall not make any Agent Advance to the extent that at such time the amount of such Agent Advance, either (I) when added to the aggregate outstanding amount of all other Agent Advances made to the Borrower at such time, would exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) or (II) which are incurred as Revolving Loans, when added to the Aggregate Exposure as then in effect (immediately prior to the incurrence of such Agent Advance), would exceed the Total Commitment at such time. It is understood and agreed that, subject to the requirements set forth above, Agent Advances may be made by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and that the Borrower shall have no right to require that any Agent Advances be made. Agent Advances will be subject to periodic settlement with the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.04.
The Commitment Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender agrees to make term loans to Borrower from time to time from the Closing Date and to, but not including, the Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the Commitment. The Commitment is not a revolving credit commitment, and Borrower does not have the right to repay and reborrow hereunder. Each Loan requested by Borrower to be made on a single Business Day shall be for a minimum principal amount set forth in the Supplement, except to the extent the remaining Commitment is a lesser amount.
Agreement to Make Swingline Loans Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Swingline Lender severally agrees to make Swingline Loans under each Commitment to the Borrower from time to time during the Extended Availability Period in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans of both Classes of Commitments exceeding $100,000,000 or the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans of any Swingline Lender exceeding $50,000,000, (ii) the sum of any Swingline Lender’s outstanding Multicurrency Loans, its LC Exposure, its outstanding Swingline Loans and (without duplication) its other Swingline Exposure exceeding its Multicurrency Commitment; (iii) the total Revolving Dollar Credit Exposures exceeding the aggregate Dollar Commitments at such time, (iv) the total Revolving Multicurrency Credit Exposures exceeding the aggregate Multicurrency Commitments at such time or (v) the total Covered Debt Amount exceeding the Borrowing Base then in effect; provided that no Swingline Lender shall be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.
