Letter of Credit Request See §2.10(a).
Letter of Credit Requests (a) Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for its account or amended, it shall give the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer a Letter of Credit Request by no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least two (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer) Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or amendment. Each notice shall be executed by the Borrower and shall be in the form of Exhibit G to the Original Credit Agreement (each a “Letter of Credit Request”).
(b) In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Request shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day)); (B) the Stated Amount thereof in the relevant currency; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder and (G) such other matters as the Letter of Credit Issuer may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Request shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the Letter of Credit Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require.
(c) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Request, the Letter of Credit Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Request from the Borrower and, if not, the Letter of Credit Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Letter of Credit Issuer has received written notice from any Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Credit Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Sections 6 and 7 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Letter of Credit Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.
(d) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Request, the Letter of Credit Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Letter of Credit Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Letter of Credit Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Letter of Credit Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the L/C Maturity Date; provided, however, that the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Letter of Credit Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (b) of Section 3.1 or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Sections 6 and 7 are not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Letter of Credit Issuer not to permit such extension.
(e) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit (including any Existing Secured Letter of Credit) to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Letter of Credit Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. On the last Business Day of each month, each Letter of Credit Issuer shall provide the Administrative Agent a list of all Letters of Credit (including any Existing Secured Letter of Credit) issued by it that are outstanding at such time.
(f) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section 3.1(b).
Letter of Credit Facility (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, each L/C Account Party, or Interface on behalf of any L/C Account Party, may request, in accordance with the provisions of this Article IIA, that, on and after the Restatement Date, the Domestic L/C Issuer issue one or more Domestic Letters of Credit for the account of such L/C Account Party; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit to be so issued shall conform to the following conditions and requirements:
(i) The Letter of Credit shall be in a form customarily used by the L/C Issuer or in any other form requested by the L/C Account Party and approved by the L/C Issuer;

(iv) No Letter of Credit shall be requested or issued having a stated amount less than $250,000;
(v) No Letter of Credit shall be requested or issued if, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Extensions of Credit would exceed the aggregate amount of all Lenders’ Domestic Syndicated Loan Commitments;
(vi) No Domestic Letter of Credit shall be requested or issued if, after giving effect to such issuance the Aggregate Domestic L/C Outstandings would exceed the lesser of (A) the Domestic Borrowing Limit, minus the amount of all outstanding Domestic Revolving Loans and (B) the aggregate Domestic L/C Subcommitments;
(vii) [Intentionally Omitted];
(viii) [Intentionally Omitted]; and
(ix) Any such Letter of Credit shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and/or ISP98 (or any other customary set of rules, regulations, or standards adopted and employed by the L/C Issuer in its customary practices), as set forth in the application for such Letter of Credit or other applicable law as determined by the L/C Issuer. Upon expiration or termination of the Domestic Syndicated Loan Commitments, the foregoing Domestic Letter of Credit facility shall automatically expire or terminate, as the case may be, without further action or notice hereunder.
(b) Each Letter of Credit may provide that the L/C Issuer may (but shall not be required to), upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, or the exercise of any remedies set forth in Article IX, pay the beneficiary thereof or, if payment is not then due to the beneficiary, provide for the deposit of funds in an account to secure payment to the beneficiary and that any funds so deposited shall be paid to the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit if conditions to such payment are satisfied, or returned to the L/C Issuer for distribution to the Domestic Agent (or, if all Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the applicable L/C Account Party) if no payment to the beneficiary has been made and the final date available for drawings under the Letter of Credit has passed. Each payment or deposit of funds as provided in this Section 2A.01(b) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as a drawing duly honored by the L/C Issuer under the related Letter of Credit.
