Revolving Line of Credit (a) The Bank hereby establishes in favor of the Borrower a revolving line of credit (the “Line of Credit”). The Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, repay and reborrow funds under the Line of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof so long as the total principal amount owed to the Bank under the Line of Credit does not exceed $25,000,000.00 (or such lesser amount as is set forth herein) during the Revolving Period. The Bank’s obligation to make advances hereunder shall terminate at the expiration of the Revolving Period.
(b) The Borrower’s indebtedness under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note (as amended, extended or renewed from time to time, the “Line of Credit Note”) of even date herewith executed by the Borrower in favor of the Bank in the original principal amount of $25,000,000.00. The Line of Credit Note shall bear interest at the rate set forth therein and shall be payable as set forth therein.
(c) The Bank shall make each advance under the Line of Credit upon written or telephonic notice from the Borrower to the Bank requesting an advance. The notice shall specify the date for which the advance is requested (which must be a Business Day) and the amount of the advance. The Bank must receive the notice prior to 12:00 noon (Eastern time) on the Business Day of the advance. Alternatively, the Borrower may request advances by drawing checks on a deposit account that is linked to the credit facility hereunder in accordance with disbursement arrangements that are mutually satisfactory to the parties. The Bank will make each requested advance available to the Borrower not later than the close of business on the Business Day of the request by crediting the Borrower’s account maintained with the Bank in the amount of the advance if as of such time: (i) the Bank’s obligation to make advances hereunder has not terminated or expired; (ii) a Default or Event of Default has not occurred; and (iii) all conditions to the advance set forth herein or in any other Loan Documents have been satisfied. The Bank may rely upon any written or telephonic notice given by any person that the Bank in good faith believes is an authorized representative of the Borrower without the necessity of any independent investigation. If any telephonic notice conflicts with a written confirmation, the telephonic notice shall govern if the Bank has acted in reliance thereon.
(d) For purposes hereof, the term “Revolving Period” shall mean a period commencing on the date hereof and terminating on March 18, 2007.
Line of Credit Amount (a) During the availability period described below, the Bank will provide a line of credit to the Borrower. The amount of the line of credit (the “Facility No. 1 Commitment”) is Fifteen Million and 00/100 Dollars ($15,000,000.00).
