Issuance of Letters of Credit (a) The Borrower may at any time prior to the Letter of Credit Maturity Date request the issuance of a letter of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit”), for its own account or the account of any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, or the amendment or extension of an existing Letter of Credit, by delivering or transmitting by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format), to an Issuing Lender selected by the Borrower (with a copy to the Revolving/TLA Administrative Agent) a completed application for letter of credit, or request for such amendment or extension, as applicable, signed by the Borrower (and, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued for the account of any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, also signed by such Subsidiary) and otherwise in such form as such Issuing Lender may specify from time to time by no later than 10:00 a.m. at least five (5) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by such Issuing Lender, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. The Borrower shall authorize and direct each Issuing Lender to name the Borrower as the “Applicant” or “Account Party” of each Letter of Credit and, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued for the account of any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, to name such Subsidiary as the “Co-Applicant” of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after receipt of any letter of credit application, such Issuing Lender shall confirm with the Revolving/TLA Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Revolving/TLA Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit application and if not, such Issuing Lender will provide the Revolving/TLA Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Letters of Credit may be issued in the form of a Standby Letter of Credit or a Commercial Letter of Credit; provided that the Specified Issuing Lenders shall not be required to issue any Commercial Letter of Credit. Letters of Credit shall be issued only in U.S. Dollars. For the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties acknowledge that each Letter of Credit issued for the account of Persons other than the Loan Parties shall constitute an Investment and Guaranty in an amount equal to the face amount of such Letter of Credit, without duplication, and shall be subject to the limitations set forth herein.
