Final Maturity Date 23 Fitch.........................................................................................23
Extension of the Maturity Date (a) Borrower shall have the option to extend the term of the Loan beyond the Initial Maturity Date for one year, until the First Extended Maturity Date, upon satisfaction of the following terms and conditions:
Tranche B Term Loans Each Lender that has a Tranche B Term Loan Commitment severally agrees to lend to Borrower on the Closing Date an amount not exceeding its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments to be used for the purposes identified in subsection 2.5A. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing no later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at least one Business Day prior to the Closing Date, requesting a borrowing of the Tranche B Term Loans. The Notice of Borrowing shall specify (i) the proposed Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day), and (ii) that such Loans shall be Base Rate Loans. The aggregate amount of the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments is $45,000,000; PROVIDED that the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments of Lenders shall be adjusted to (1) give effect to any assignments of the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments pursuant to subsection 10.1B and (2) any increase in Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iv). Each Lender's Tranche B Term Loan Commitment shall expire immediately and without further action on March 31, 2002 if the Tranche B Term Loans have not been made on or before that date. Subject to subsection 2.1A(iv), Borrower may make only one borrowing under the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments. Amounts 35 borrowed under this subsection 2.1A(ii) and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments If the maturity date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the maturity date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Credit Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.03(d)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Credit Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.17. If, for any reason, such Cash Collateral is not provided or the reallocation does not occur, the Revolving Credit Lenders under the maturing tranche shall continue to be responsible for their participating interests in the Letters of Credit. Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the second preceding sentence, the occurrence of a maturity date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such maturity date. Commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit shall be agreed with the Lenders under the extended tranches.
Delayed Draw Term Loan The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Notice of Borrowing prior to 11:00 a.m. (i) on the same Business Day as each Base Rate Loan and (ii) at least three (3) Business Days before each LIBOR Rate Loan (provided that the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent indemnifying the Lenders in the manner set forth in Section 5.9 of this Agreement), of its intention to borrow, specifying (A) the date of such borrowing (the “Delayed Draw Funding Date”), which shall be a Business Day, (B) the amount of such borrowing, which shall be, (x) with respect to Base Rate Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (y) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (C) whether the Loans are to be LIBOR Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans, and (D) in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto; provided, that the Delayed Draw Term Loan shall be made in one drawing on the Delayed Draw Funding Date. Upon receipt of such Notice of Borrowing from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender thereof. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on the proposed Delayed Draw Funding Date, each Term Loan Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds, the amount of such Delayed Draw Term Loan to be made by such Term Loan Lender on the Delayed Draw Funding Date. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of the Delayed Draw Term Loan in immediately available funds by wire transfer to such Person or Persons as may be designated by the Borrower in writing; provided that to the extent the proceeds of the Delayed Draw Term Loan funded on the Delayed Draw Funding Date, together with the Cash Contribution, exceed an amount equal to the Cash Percentage of the total Acquisition Consideration payable in accordance with the Tender Offer Document in respect of the Company Shares accepted in the Tender Offer on the Delayed Draw Funding Date plus Transaction Costs then due and payable (the “Excess Term Loan Proceeds”), such Excess Term Loan Proceeds shall be funded directly into the Escrow Account in accordance with the Escrow Agreement; it being agreed that the principal amount of each Delayed Draw Term Loan owing hereunder shall be an amount equal to 100% of the applicable Lender’s Term Loan Commitment with respect to the Delayed Draw Term Loan.
Extension of Maturity Date (a) On any anniversary of the Closing Date prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrowers may request to extend the then-applicable Maturity Date (the “Existing Maturity Date”) for an additional one-year period (an “Extension Period”) to the date that is one year after the Existing Maturity Date (the “Requested Maturity Date”); provided that the Borrowers may extend the Maturity Date for a maximum two (2) such Extension Periods. The Borrowers may make such request in a notice given as herein provided and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.8(a) (the “Extension of Maturity Date Request”) to the Administrative Agent not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date, so long as (i) each of the representations and warranties contained in Section 7 and in the other Credit Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such notice and as of the commencement date of the relevant Extension Period as if made on and as of each date (or, if any such representation and warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date) and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such notice and as of the commencement date of the relevant Extension Period. Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, not later than a date 30 days after its receipt of any such notice from the Administrative Agent, notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its election to extend or not to extend the Existing Maturity Date with respect to its Commitment. Any Lender which shall not timely notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of its election to extend the Existing Maturity Date shall be deemed not to have elected to extend the Existing Maturity Date with respect to its Commitment (any Lender who timely notifies the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of an election not to extend or fails to timely notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of its election being referred to as a “Terminating Lender” and all such Lenders, collectively, the “Terminating Lenders”). The election of any Lender to agree to a requested extension shall not obligate any other Lender to agree to such requested extension.
Tranche A Term Loans Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Tranche A Term Loan Lender agrees to make a Tranche A Term Loan to the Borrower on the Effective Date in a principal amount not exceeding its Tranche A Term Loan Commitment. Amounts repaid in respect of Tranche A Term Loans may not be reborrowed hereunder.
Mandatory Repayments of Revolving Credit Loans If at any time the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans plus the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations plus the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans exceeds the lesser of (i) the Total Commitment at such time, and (ii) the Borrowing Base at such time, then, in any case, the Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Administrative Agent for the respective accounts of the Lenders for application: first, to any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations; second, to the Swing Line Loans; third, to the Revolving Credit Loans; and fourth, to provide to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral for Reimbursement Obligations as contemplated by §4.2. Each payment of any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations or prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated among the applicable Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to each Reimbursement Obligation or (as the case may be) the respective unpaid principal amount of each applicable Lender’s Revolving Credit Loan, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior payments or repayments not exactly in proportion.
Optional Repayments of Revolving Credit Loans The Borrowers shall have the right, at their election, to prepay the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium; provided that the outstanding amount of any Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans may not be prepaid unless the Borrowers pay any LIBOR Breakage Costs for each LIBOR Rate Loan so prepaid at the time of such prepayment. The Borrower Representative shall give the Administrative Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, at least two (2) Business Days' prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to this §2.8 of any Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans, and at least four (4) LIBOR Business Days' notice of any proposed prepayment pursuant to this §2.8 of Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans, specifying the proposed date of prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans and the principal amount to be prepaid. Each such partial prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be in an amount of $2,000,000 or integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, or, if less, the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans then being repaid, shall be accompanied by the payment of all charges outstanding on all Revolving Credit Loans so prepaid and of all accrued interest on the principal prepaid to the date of payment, and shall be applied, in the absence of instruction by the Borrower Representative, first to the principal of Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans and then to the principal of Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans, at the Administrative Agent's option.
