Loan Advances During the Revolving Period, the Borrower may, at its option, request the Revolving Lenders to make advances of funds (each, a “Loan Advance”) by delivering a Funding Notice with respect to such Loan Advance to the Administrative Agent, which shall provide notification to the Revolving Lenders with respect thereto, in an aggregate amount up to the Availability as of the proposed Funding Date of the Loan Advance; provided, however, that no Revolving Lender shall be obligated to make any Loan Advance on or after the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the earlier to occur of the applicable Revolving Period End Date or the Termination Date. Following the receipt of a Funding Notice during the Revolving Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Revolving Lenders shall fund such Loan Advance.

Borrower may request Equipment Advances at any time during the Draw Period, provided that the initial Equipment Advance shall not exceed One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) (the “Initial Equipment Advance”). The aggregate outstanding amount of Equipment Advances shall not exceed the Equipment Line. Each Equipment Advance shall not exceed sixty percent (60%) of the invoice amount of equipment and software listed in that certain Machinery and Equipment 2013 Projection delivered to Bank on or about the Closing Date (which Borrower shall, in any case, have purchased, (i) with respect to the Initial Equipment Advance, within one hundred eighty (180) days and (ii) with respect to all subsequent Equipment Advances, within ninety (90) days, of the date of the corresponding Equipment Advance), excluding taxes, shipping, warranty charges, freight discounts and installation expense.

(ii) Interest shall accrue from the date of each Equipment Advance at the rate specified in Section 2.3(a), and shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.3(c). Any Equipment Advances that are outstanding on June 30, 2013 shall be payable in twenty seven (27) equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued interest, beginning on July 1, 2013, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter through the Equipment Maturity Date.

2. Section 2.1(c) of the Agreement hereby is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Term Advances The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Term Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Advances in quarterly installments each equal to $412,500 (which is equal to five percent (5%) of $8,250,000). Such quarterly installments shall be due and payable on each March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st, commencing with December 31, 2012, and a final installment of the remaining, unpaid principal balance of the Term Advances payable on the Term Maturity Date.
LOANS, ADVANCES, INVESTMENTS Make any loans or advances to or investments in any person or entity, except any of the foregoing existing as of, and disclosed to Bank prior to, the date hereof.
Revolving Loan Notes The Revolving Loans made by the Lenders to a Borrower shall be evidenced, upon request by any Lender, by a promissory note of such Borrower payable to each Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.7(a) hereto (the “Revolving Loan Notes”) and in a principal amount equal to the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Loan Commitment as originally in effect.
Revolving Advances (a) The Note A-2 Holder hereby agrees to advance to the Mortgage Loan Borrower any Revolving Advance required to be made under Note A-2 and the Mortgage Loan Documents, it being the specific intent of the parties hereto that no other Noteholder shall have any obligation and shall not be liable for making any Revolving Advance. The Note A-2 Holder shall remit each Revolving Advance on the date that such Revolving Advance is required to be made pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents and Note A-2. The parties hereto agree that (i) the determination of whether the Mortgage Loan Borrower is entitled to receive any Revolving Advance shall rest solely with the Note A-2 Holder, who shall be responsible for conducting any and all due diligence, loan documentation and pre-funding requirements in connection therewith, and (ii) the Note A-2 Holder shall be solely responsible for funding the Revolving Advance to the Mortgage Loan Borrower following such determination that the Mortgage Loan Borrower is entitled to receive such Revolving Advance under the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement.
(b) For so long as the Revolving Advance Obligation has not been fully discharged and any Securitization is outstanding, Note A-2 may only be transferred to a transferee:
(i) that is a Qualified Institutional Lender, or
(ii) if the credit rating of the transferee from any applicable Rating Agency is lower than the credit rating of the Initial Note A-2 Holder, as to which the A-2 Holder has received confirmation in writing from each such Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current ratings of the Certificates, which confirmation will not be predicated upon any action by the Mortgage Loan Borrower. In addition, for so long as the Revolving Advance Obligation has not been fully discharged, (i) no Transfer of Note A-2 shall violate the Mortgage Loan Documents and (ii) the transferee shall assume all Revolving Advance Obligations pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement whereby such transferee agrees to be bound by all provisions applicable to the Note A-2 Holder.
(c) The Note A-2 Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless each other Noteholder, any Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee (each a “Revolving Advance Indemnified Party”), against any and all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including the fees and disbursements of outside counsel retained by any such person) and liabilities in connection with, arising out of, or as a result of the Note A-2 Holder's failure to satisfy its obligations to make any and all Revolving Advances, including without limitation, (i) any claims made by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or its Affiliates or (ii) any failure of payment by the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Mortgage Loan, in each case that results from a failure to make any Revolving Advance as required under the Mortgage Loan Documents, except, as to such Future Funding Indemnified Party, to the extent that it is finally judicially determined that any losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or liabilities resulted primarily from the bad faith or willful misconduct of such Revolving Advance Indemnified Party. Each Revolving Advance Indemnified Party shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement with respect to the indemnification obligations of the Note A-2 Holder set forth in this Section 41. In the event that the Note A-2 Holder becomes involved in any action, proceeding or investigation in connection with any transaction or matter referred to or contemplated by this Agreement, the Note A-2 Holder shall promptly reimburse such Revolving Advance Indemnified Party upon demand therefor in an amount equal to its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the costs of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection therewith to the extent such party is entitled to indemnification for such legal or other costs and expenses hereunder. In addition, the Note A-2 Holder agrees that each Revolving Advance Indemnified Party may deduct and offset any amount to be indemnified hereunder from and against any amount that is due to the Note A-2 Holder under the Servicing Agreement. The indemnification obligations of the Note A-2 Holder hereunder shall survive any termination of the Agreement. Each Revolving Advance Indemnified Party's rights pursuant to this Section 41 are in addition to any other rights a Revolving Advance Indemnified Party may have at law or in equity.
(d) The Note A-2 Holder shall provide notice of the making of any Revolving Advance and the amount of such Revolving Advance to each other Noteholder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor.
(e) The Note A-1-A-1 Holder (or at any time when such Note is included in a Securitization, the Master Servicer) shall maintain a record of each Revolving Advance advanced by the Note A-2 Holder and will increase the Note A-2 Principal Balance by the amount of such Revolving Advance.
Disbursement of Revolving Credit and Swingline Loans Not later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed borrowing date, (i) each Revolving Credit Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Borrower, at the office of the Administrative Agent in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans to be made on such borrowing date and (ii) the Swingline Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Borrower, at the office of the Administrative Agent in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Loans to be made on such borrowing date. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each borrowing requested pursuant to this Section in immediately available funds by crediting or wiring such proceeds to the deposit account of the Borrower identified in the most recent notice substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C (a “Notice of Account Designation”) delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or as may be otherwise agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time. Subject to Section 5.7 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse the portion of the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loan requested pursuant to this Section to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender has not made available to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Loan. Revolving Credit Loans to be made for the purpose of refunding Swingline Loans shall be made by the Revolving Credit Lenders as provided in Section 2.2(b).
Swingline Advances (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Bank agrees to make Swingline Advances to AEP from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the Termination Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Advances exceeding $65,000,000 or (ii) the Outstanding Credits exceeding the Commitments; provided that the Swingline Bank shall not be required to make a Swingline Advance to refinance an outstanding Swingline Advance. Within the limits as hereinabove and hereinafter provided, AEP may request Swingline Advances hereunder, and repay or prepay Swingline Advances pursuant to Section 2.12 and utilize the resulting increase in the Available Commitments for further Swingline Advances in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Swingline Advance shall be a Base Rate Advance and shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000.
(b) To request a Swingline Advance, AEP shall notify the Swingline Bank of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy, with a copy to the Administrative Agent), not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Advance. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Advance. The Swingline Bank shall make each Swingline Advance available to AEP by means of a credit to the general deposit account of AEP with the Swingline Bank by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Advance.
(c) The Swingline Bank may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Advances outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Advances in which the Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Advance or Advances. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Bank, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Advance or Advances. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Advances pursuant to this subsection is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this subsection by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(a) with respect to Advances made by such Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify AEP of any participations in any Swingline Advance acquired pursuant to this subsection, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Advance shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Bank. Any amounts received by the Swingline Bank from AEP (or other party on behalf of AEP) in respect of a Swingline Advance after receipt by the Swingline Bank of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this subsection (to the extent of each applicable Lender’s participation) and to the Swingline Bank to the extent of its retained interest; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Bank or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to AEP for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Advance pursuant to this subsection shall not relieve AEP of any default in the payment thereof.
Agent Advances (i) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion, upon notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders, (A) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) at any time that any of the other conditions precedent set forth in Article IX have not been satisfied, to make Base Rate Loans to the Borrower on behalf of the Lenders in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base (provided that the making of any such Loan does not cause the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings to exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount) which the Agent, in its good faith judgment, deems necessary or desirable (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (2) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations (including through Base Rate Loans for the purpose of enabling Holdings and its Subsidiaries to meet their payroll and associated Tax obligations), and/or (3) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 14.7 (any of such advances are herein referred to as “Agent Advances”); provided, that the Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authorization to make Agent Advances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Agent’s receipt thereof.
(ii) The Agent Advances shall be secured by the Collateral Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Base Rate Loans and Obligations hereunder.
