  • CULTURAL DIVERSITY The Cultural Diversity Requirement generally does not add units to a student's program. Rather, it is intended to be fulfilled by choosing courses from the approved list that also satisfy requirements in other areas of the student’s program; the exception is that Cultural Diversity courses may not satisfy Culture and Language Requirements for B.S. students. For example, COMM 6 – Intercultural Communication, can fulfill (3) units of the Behavioral Science requirement and (3) units of the Cultural Diversity requirement. This double counting of a class may only be done with the Cultural Diversity requirement. Courses in Cultural Diversity may be taken at the lower- division or upper-division level.

If DEI so delivers a Pricing Certificate in respect of a calendar year, (i) the Applicable Percentage for the Revolving Loans incurred by DEI shall be increased or decreased (or neither increased nor decreased), as applicable, pursuant to the Sustainability Margin Adjustment as set forth in the KPI Metrics Certificate delivered with such Pricing Certificate, and (ii) the Applicable Percentage for the Facility Fee for Commitments under the DEI Sublimit shall be increased or decreased (or neither increased nor decreased), as applicable, pursuant to the Sustainability Fee Adjustment as set forth in such KPI Metrics Certificate. If no Pricing Certificate is so delivered in respect of a calendar year, the Sustainability Margin Adjustment and the Sustainability Fee Adjustment in respect of such calendar year shall be determined pursuant to Section 1.7(c). For purposes of the foregoing, (A) if a Pricing Certificate is so delivered for any calendar year, the Sustainability Margin Adjustment and the Sustainability Fee Adjustment shall be determined as of the fifth Business Day following the Pricing Certificate Date for such Pricing Certificate based upon the KPI Metrics for such calendar year set forth in the KPI Metrics Certificate delivered with such Pricing Certificate and the calculations of the Sustainability Margin Adjustment and the Sustainability Fee Adjustment in such KPI Metrics Certificate and (B) if no Pricing Certificate is so delivered in respect of such calendar year, the Sustainability Margin Adjustment and the Sustainability Fee Adjustment shall be determined pursuant to Section 1.7(c) effective as of the Business Day immediately following the date that is 120 days following the last day of such calendar year (such fifth (5th) Business Day or such Business Day, as applicable, each a “Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date”). Each change in the Applicable Percentages on any Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date shall be effective during the period commencing on and including such Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date and ending on the date immediately preceding the next Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date.

For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to the Applicable Percentages for such Revolving Loans or such Facility Fee by reason of meeting one or several KPI Metrics in any calendar year shall not be cumulative year-over-year. The adjustments pursuant to this Section made on any Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date shall only apply for the period until the date immediately preceding the next Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date. (c) It is hereby understood and agreed that if no such Pricing Certificate with respect to a calendar year is delivered by DEI within the period set forth in this Section 1.7, the Sustainability Margin Adjustment will be positive 0.05% and the Sustainability Fee Adjustment will be positive 0.01% commencing on the last day of such period and continuing until the day immediately prior to the next Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date.

(e) It is understood and agreed that any Pricing Certificate Inaccuracy shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default; provided, that, the Borrowers comply with the terms of this Section 1.7 with respect to such Pricing Certificate Inaccuracy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless such amounts shall be due upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to a Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code (or any comparable event under non-U.S. debtor relief laws), (a) any additional amounts required to be paid pursuant the immediate preceding paragraph shall not be due and payable until the date that is 10 Business Days after a written demand is made for such payment by the Administrative Agent in accordance with such paragraph, (b) any nonpayment of such additional amounts prior to or upon such demand for payment by Administrative Agent shall not constitute a Default (whether retroactively or otherwise) and (c) none of such additional amounts shall be deemed overdue prior to the date that is 10 Business Days after such a demand or shall accrue interest at the rate provided in Section 3.1(b) prior to the date that is 10 Business Days after such a demand. (f) Each party hereto hereby agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Co-Sustainability Structuring Agent shall have any responsibility for (or liability in respect of) reviewing, auditing or otherwise evaluating any calculation by any Borrower of any Sustainability Margin Adjustment or Sustainability Fee Adjustment (or any of the data or computations that are part of or related to any such calculation) set forth in any Pricing Certificate (and the Administrative Agent and the Co-Sustainability Structuring Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry). (g) As soon as available and in any event within 120 days following the end of each calendar year (commencing with the calendar year ending December 31, 2021), a Pricing Certificate for the most recently-ended calendar year may be provided by DEI as set forth in this Section 1.7; provided, that, for any calendar year the Borrowers may elect not to deliver a Pricing Certificate, such election shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default (but such failure to so deliver a Pricing Certificate by the end of such 120-day period shall result in the Sustainability Margin Adjustment and Sustainability Fee Adjustment being applied as set forth in Section 1.7(c). (h) In the event Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries acquire or divest a business, facility or Subsidiary with Capacity in excess of 100MW, the Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Target and the Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Threshold shall be adjusted to account for such acquisition or divestiture such that the Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Target and the Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Threshold remain neutral to such acquisition or disposition in a manner and methodology that are the same as those used in determining the original Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Target and the Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Threshold. The Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a certificate that (i) calculates in reasonable detail such adjusted Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Target and Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Threshold and (ii) restates Exhibit 1.7-1 with such adjusted amounts, and, if Lenders constituting Required Lenders have not objected to such adjusted Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Target and Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Threshold within 5 Business Days of such delivery, then Exhibit 1.7-1 shall be deemed amended to reflect such adjusted Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Target and Renewable Energy Generation Capacity Percentage Threshold.
