(b) Any Lender other than any Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other financial institutions or Lender Affiliates (“Participants”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any participating interest of such Lender in the Letters of Credit, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Credit Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Amended Agreement to the other parties to this Amended Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Amended Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the Company and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Amended Agreement and the other Credit Documents; provided, however, that such Lender shall not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in Section 12.1(i) that affects such Participant. The Company agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Amended Agreement and the Loans are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Amended Agreement and any Loan to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Amended Agreement or any Loan; provided that such Participant shall only be entitled to such right of setoff if it shall have agreed in the agreement pursuant to which it shall have acquired its participating interest to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof, as provided in Section 12.7. The Company also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.12, 5.19, 5.20, 5.21 and 5.23 with respect to its participation in the Letters of Credit and in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time; provided that (x) no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred, (y) each Participant shall be subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) of Section 5.20 and (z) a Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.23 unless the Company is notified of the participation interest sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 5.23(e) and (h) as through it were a Lender. (c) Any Lender other than any Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, with the prior written consent of the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender (in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, at any time sell to any Lender or any Affiliate or Lender Affiliate thereof (including any Affiliate or Subsidiary of such transferor Lender) and, with the prior written consent of the Company (subject to the penultimate sentence of this clause (c)) and the Administrative Agent (which in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), sell to one or more additional banks or financial institutions (an “Assignee”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Amended Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit Documents and, with respect to the Letters of Credit, such Lender’s L/C Participating Interest, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by such Assignee, such assigning Lender (and by the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender, to the extent their consent is required), and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided that (A) each such sale pursuant to this Section 12.6(c) of a Lender’s rights and obligations (I) to a Person which is not then a Lender or an Affiliate or Lender Affiliate of a Lender shall be of the entire remaining amount of the Assigning Lenders rights and obligations or, if less than such entire remaining amount, of Commitments and/or Loans of $5,000,000 (or in the case of any Incremental Term Loan Commitments and Incremental Term Loans, $1,000,000) or more unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Administrative Agent; and (II) to a Person which is then a Lender or an Affiliate or Lender Affiliate of a Lender may be in any amount and shall not require the consent of the Company or the Administrative Agent, and (B) each Assignee which is a Foreign Lender shall comply with the provisions of Section 5.23(e) and (h) hereof; and provided, further that the foregoing shall not prohibit a Lender from selling participating interests in accordance with Section 12.6(b) in all or any portion of its Commitments and/or Loans (without duplication). For purposes of clauses (A) and (B) of the first proviso contained in the preceding sentence, the amount described therein shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Lender Affiliates, if any. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with the Commitments and Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest transferred, as reflected in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Amended Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Amended Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Such Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to amend this Amended Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Assignee and the resulting adjustment of Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Assignee of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such assigning Lender under this Amended Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (and to the extent permitted by law), after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default any Lender may sell all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Amended Agreement without the consent of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign at any time to its designating Lender hereunder without the consent of the Company or the Administrative Agent any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder and pursuant to its designation agreement and without regard to the limitations set forth in the first sentence of this Section 12.6(c). (d) The Administrative Agent acting on behalf of and as agent for the Company, shall maintain at the address of the Administrative Agent referred to in Section 12.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, the principal amount of any Swing Line Loans, Revolving Credit Loans and Incremental Term Loans, if any owing to, and if such Lender has any Revolving Credit Commitment, the L/C Participating Interests of, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loans or L/C Participating Interests recorded therein for all purposes of this Amended Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Amended Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee (and by the Company, the Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent to the extent required hereby), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (which fee the Company shall have no obligation to pay and which fee may be waived by the Administrative Agent in its discretion), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto, record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Company. (f) If, pursuant to this Section 12.6, any interest in this Amended Agreement or any Loan or Letter of Credit is transferred to any Transferee which would be a Foreign Lender upon the effectiveness of such transfer, the assigning Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, (i) to represent to the assigning Lender (for the benefit of the assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Company) that under applicable law and treaties no Taxes will be required to be withheld by the Administrative Agent, the Company or the assigning Lender with respect to any payments to be made to such Transferee in respect of the Loans or L/C Participating Interests, (ii) to furnish to the assigning Lender (and, in the case of any Assignee registered in the Register, the Administrative Agent and the Company) such Internal Revenue Service Forms required to be furnished pursuant to Section 5.23(e) and (h) and (iii) to agree (for the benefit of the assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Company) to be bound by the provisions of Section 5.23(e) and (h). (g) For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Amended Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section concerning assignments of Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment (i) by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law and (ii) by a Lender or a Lender Affiliate which is a fund to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided that any transfer of Loans or Notes upon, or in lieu of, enforcement of or the exercise of remedies under any such pledge shall be treated as an assignment thereof which shall not be made without compliance with the requirements of this Section 12.6. (h) The Company, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (h) above. (i) Each of the Company, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however (i) that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period forbearance and (ii) the foregoing shall not prohibit or limit the ability of any such Person to file claims against a Conduit Lender in connection with any such proceeding.
Increase of Commitments; Additional Lenders (a) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, from time to time after the Restatement Effective Date, the Borrowers may, upon at least ten days’ written notice (or such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion) to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to each Lender), propose to increase the Aggregate Revolving Commitments (an “Incremental Revolving Commitment” or an “Incremental Facility”); provided that the aggregate amount of all Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not exceed $50,000,000 in the aggregate over the term of this Agreement. No Lender shall have any obligation to extend any Incremental Facility. (b) The Borrowers may designate a bank or other financial institution (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) to extend such Incremental Facility (each, an “Additional Lender”), which at the time agrees to extend such Incremental Facility; provided however, that any new bank or financial institution must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (c) In the case of each Incremental Revolving Commitment: (i) such Incremental Revolving Commitment shall have the same terms as the existing Revolving Commitments (other than any initial upfront fees paid to the Additional Lenders extending such Incremental Revolving Commitment); and (ii) the outstanding Revolving Loans and the Pro Rata Share of L/C Obligations will be reallocated by the Administrative Agent on the applicable increase effective date among the Revolving Lenders (including the Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitment) in accordance with their revised Pro Rata Shares (and the Revolving Lenders (including the Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitment) agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect such reallocation and the Borrowers shall pay any and all costs required pursuant to Section 2.18 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation were a repayment). (d) An Incremental Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of: (i) a supplement or joinder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent executed by the Borrowers and by each Additional Lender setting forth the Incremental Revolving Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof, (ii) evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Borrowers with respect to the Incremental Facility, and (iii) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrowers to the effect that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2(a) and (b) will be satisfied before and after giving effect to the incurrence of the Incremental Facility and (B) after giving effect to such increase and the payment of any related fees, the Borrowers would be in compliance on a pro forma basis with the covenants set forth in Section 8.4 (after giving effect to any Borrowings to be made on the date that the Incremental Facility becomes effective, and deeming any Incremental Revolving Commitment to be fully drawn for purposes of calculating such compliance). (e) Upon the acceptance of any such agreement by the Administrative Agent, (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount shall automatically be increased by the amount of the Incremental Revolving Commitments added through such agreement and (ii) Schedule I shall automatically be deemed amended to reflect the Commitments of all Lenders after giving effect to the addition of such Commitments. (f) Each supplement or joinder agreement referred to in clause (d)(i) above may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provision of this Section 2.22, and for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.22 shall supersede any provisions of Sections 2.20 or 11.2 to the contrary.
Revolving Commitment Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make available to the Borrower such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of revolving credit loans requested by the Borrower in Dollars ("REVOLVING LOANS") from time to time from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date, or such earlier date as the Revolving Commitments shall have been terminated as provided herein; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans shall not exceed ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS ($100,000,000) (as such aggregate maximum amount may be reduced from time to time as provided in Section 3.4, the "REVOLVING COMMITTED AMOUNT"); PROVIDED, FURTHER, (A) with regard to each Lender individually, such Lender's outstanding Revolving Loans shall not exceed such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Committed Amount, and (B) the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans PLUS LOC Obligations PLUS Swingline Loans shall not exceed the Revolving Committed Amount. The initial advance of the Revolving Loans on the Closing Date shall consist solely of Base Rate Loans. Thereafter, Revolving Loans may consist of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, or a combination thereof, as the Borrower may request; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no more than 15 Eurodollar Loans shall be outstanding hereunder at any time (it being understood that, for purposes hereof, Eurodollar Loans with different Interest Periods shall be considered as separate Eurodollar Loans, even if they begin on the same date, although borrowings, extensions and conversions may, in accordance with the provisions hereof, be combined at the end of existing Interest Periods to constitute a new Eurodollar Loan with a single Interest Period). Revolving Loans hereunder may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof.
Revolving Loan Commitment Each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment agrees to make loans on a revolving basis (“Revolving Loans”) from time to time until the Termination Date in such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such aggregate amounts as the Company may request from all Lenders; provided that the Revolving Outstandings will not at any time exceed Revolving Loan Availability.
TEACHING LOADS AND ASSIGNMENTS A. Should teacher absences necessitate using teachers on preparation periods as substitutes because no eligible substitutes are available, said teacher giving up his/her preparation period shall be paid at the rate listed is Schedule B for each prep period given up to substitute. Every effort will be made to share the assignments equally. When absences of fifty percent (50%) or more of the day occur, the Administration will call for an eligible substitute. B. Elementary/Middle School scheduled recess periods will be supervised by non- teachers. Elementary/Middle School teachers may use this as preparation time, as long as it is a scheduled release time. C. Any teacher may discuss his/her tentative assignment for the forthcoming year with their building administrator and may appeal the assignment to the Superintendent. Teachers who will be affected by a change in assignments or classroom will be notified of their tentative assignment by June 1. Teachers shall be informed of the final assignments and classrooms no later than August 1 unless an unforeseen or emergency situation arises. Should a situation arise, Administration shall notify the Association of the reasons. D. The staff will be surveyed prior to the end of each school year to determine teaching preference for the next school term. E Because the Board of Education has the statutory duty to educate all children within the boundaries of the school district and those participating in schools of choice, and because the student/teacher ratio is an important aspect of the educational program, and because the number of students the teacher is required to instruct has a direct bearing upon the amount of work required of the individual teacher, the parties agree the size of the individual classes shall be given careful consideration to balance them by the administration. Upon the request of the teacher or association, if educationally appropriate, or economically feasible all options not limited to: balancing class loads, hiring a paraprofessional, or not being able to do anything will be considered. Discussion on whether to do so will be done by the 4th Wednesday count day.
