Protective Advances In addition to any other rights of the Administrative Agent provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (but with absolutely no obligation), make SBAC Revolving Loans to SBAC or SBF Revolving Loans to SBF, on behalf of the applicable Lenders, which the Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by any Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 11.3) and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (any such Loans are herein referred to collectively as “Protective Advances”). Protective Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied; provided that no Protective Advance shall be made after the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date, or cause any Lender’s outstanding Loans to exceed its SBAC Revolving Commitment or SBF Revolving Commitment. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Lenders after making any Protective Advance. The authority of the Administrative Agent to make Protective Advances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed (x) $2,000,000 at any time with respect to Protective Advances made to SBAC and (y) $5,500,000 at any time with respect to Protective Advances made to SBF; provided that, the Required SBAC Lenders or the Required SBF Lenders, as applicable, may at any time with prior written notice to the Administrative Agent revoke the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make additional Protective Advances hereunder. Absent such revocation, the Administrative Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive. All Protective Advances shall constitute Base Rate Loans made hereunder. Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent, each SBAC Lender or SBF Lender, as applicable, shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Administrative Agent without recourse or warranty an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance in proportion to its Pro Rata Share thereof. The Administrative Agent may, at any time, require the Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral and other amounts due and payable hereunder with respect thereto received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance. All Protective Advances shall be Obligations, secured by the Collateral, and treated for all purposes as an expense of the Administrative Agent entitled to the priorities set forth in Section 9.2.
Additional Titled Agents Except for rights and powers, if any, expressly reserved under this Agreement to any bookrunner, arranger or to any titled agent named on the cover page of this Agreement, other than Agent (collectively, the “Additional Titled Agents”), and except for obligations, liabilities, duties and responsibilities, if any, expressly assumed under this Agreement by any Additional Titled Agent, no Additional Titled Agent, in such capacity, has any rights, powers, liabilities, duties or responsibilities hereunder or under any of the other Financing Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, no Additional Titled Agent shall have nor be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. At any time that any Lender serving as an Additional Titled Agent shall have transferred to any other Person (other than any Affiliates) all of its interests in the Loan, such Lender shall be deemed to have concurrently resigned as such Additional Titled Agent.
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.
Titled Agents Each of the Titled Agents in each such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, or for any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders. The titles of “Co-Lead Arranger”, “Book Manager”, “Syndication Agent” and “Documentation Agent” are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Agent, the Borrower or any Lender and the use of such titles does not impose on the Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.
Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity LaSalle and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Loan Parties and Affiliates as though LaSalle were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, LaSalle or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Company or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to their Loans (if any), LaSalle and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though LaSalle were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include LaSalle and its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.
Administrative Agent Individually The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity as a Lender. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, own securities of, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any member of the Consolidated Group or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
