Making the Loans (a) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice (the “Notice of Borrowing”) (which notice shall be irrevocable) no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day before the requested date for the making of the Loans. The Notice of Borrowing shall specify (i) the requested date for the making of the requested Loans, which shall be a Business Day and (ii) the principal amount of each requested Tranche A Loan and Tranche B Loan. Upon receipt of the Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents thereof and of the principal amount of each Loan to be made by such Lender on the requested date specified therein.
(b) Not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the requested date on which the Loans are to be disbursed, each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent, in Dollars in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at the offices of the Administrative Agent, the Loan(s) to be made by such Lender on such date. Any Lender’s failure to make any Loan to be made by it on the requested date therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make any Loan to be made by such other Lender on such date, but such other Lender shall not be liable for such failure.
(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the requested date on which the Loans are to be disbursed that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent funds with respect to the Loan(s) requested to be made by such Lender on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such funds available to the Administrative Agent on such date in accordance with Section 1.02(b) and the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date funds in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Loan(s) to be made by such Lender on behalf of such Lender. If and to the extent such Lender shall not have so made available to the Administrative Agent funds with respect to the Loan(s) requested to be made by such Lender on such date and the Administrative Agent shall have so made available to the Borrower funds in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Loan(s) to be made by such Lender on behalf of such Lender, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent funds in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Loan(s) to be made by such Lender together with interest thereon for each day from the date such funds shall have been so made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower until the date such amount shall have been repaid to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Interest Rate until (and including) the third Business Day after demand is made and thereafter at the Default Rate.
(d) All Loans made available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 1.02(b) shall be disbursed by the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the requested date therefor, to the Borrower or to its order by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the aggregate principal amount of such Loans in accordance with the payment instructions of the Borrower set forth in the letter to the Administrative Agent (the “Pay Proceeds Letter”) along with the Notice of Borrowing.
Making the Advances (a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given (i) in the case of a Borrowing comprising Eurodollar Rate Advances, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, and (ii) in the case of a Borrowing comprising Alternate Base Rate Advances, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing, by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof. Each such Notice of Borrowing by any Borrower shall be by email or any other electronic manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, specifying therein the requested (A) date of such Borrowing, (B) Type of Advances to be made in connection with such Borrowing, (C) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, (D) in the case of a Borrowing comprising Eurodollar Rate Advances, the initial Interest Period for each such Advance, which Borrowing shall be subject to the limitations stated in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, and (E) the identity of the Borrower requesting such Borrowing. Each Borrower may request that more than one Borrowing be made on any date. Each Lender shall, before 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 8.02, in same day funds, such Lender’s Percentage of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to such Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address.
(b) Each Notice of Borrowing delivered by any Borrower shall be irrevocable and binding on such Borrower. In the case of any Notice of Borrowing delivered by any Borrower requesting Eurodollar Rate Advances, such Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure by such Borrower to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.
(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice via facsimile transmission from a Lender prior to (A) 5:00 p.m. (New York time) one Business Day prior to the date of a Borrowing comprising Eurodollar Rate Advances or (B) 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of a Borrowing comprising Alternate Base Rate Advances that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Percentage of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such Percentage of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances made in connection with such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.
(d) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Advances are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.
Making the Revolving Credit Advances (a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by the Borrower to the Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or telex. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing signed by a Financial Officer in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, (iv) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Revolving Credit Advance and (v) wire transfer instructions. Each Lender shall, before 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower as specified in the Notice of Borrowing.
(b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $5,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.11(a) and (ii) at no time shall the aggregate number of all Borrowings comprising Eurodollar Rate Advances outstanding hereunder be greater than ten.
(c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Revolving Credit Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.
(d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Credit Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.
(e) The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.
Repayment of Borrowings repay the principal of, or pay interest on or any other sum in connection with any of its Borrowed Money except for Borrowed Money pursuant to the Security Documents;

Limitation on Borrowings Outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit, to a maximum of the principal amount set forth above, shall not at any time exceed an aggregate of (i) seventy-five percent (75.0%) of Borrower's Eligible Accounts Receivable (as defined below), plus (ii) the lesser of (A) $14,000,000, and (B) eighty percent (80.0%) of the Appraised Net Recovery Value (as defined below) of Borrower's inventory. The amount calculated pursuant to the preceding sentence is referred to herein as the "Borrowing Base". All of the foregoing shall be determined by Bank upon receipt and review of all collateral reports required hereunder and such other documents and collateral information as Bank may from time to time require. Borrower acknowledges that the Borrowing Base was established by Bank with the understanding that if there at any time exists any other matters, events, conditions or contingencies which Bank reasonably believes may affect payment of any portion of Borrower's accounts, Bank, in its sole discretion, may reduce the foregoing advance rate against Eligible Accounts Receivable to a percentage appropriate to reflect additional dilution and/or establish additional reserves against Borrower's Eligible Accounts Receivable. As used herein, "Eligible Accounts Receivable" shall consist solely of trade accounts created in the ordinary course of Borrower's business, net of all (x) returned goods authorizations, and (y) allowances for warranties, and upon which Borrower's right to receive payment is absolute and not contingent upon the fulfillment of any condition whatsoever, and in which Bank has a perfected security interest of first priority, and shall not include:
(i) any account which remains unpaid more than sixty (60) days past the due date thereof;
(ii) that portion of any account for which there exists any right of setoff (including deposits, loans and warranties), defense or discount (except regular discounts allowed in the ordinary course of business to promote prompt payment) or for which any defense or counterclaim has been asserted;
(iii) any account which represents an obligation of any state or municipal government or of the United States government or any political subdivision thereof (except accounts which represent obligations of the United States government and for which the assignment provisions of the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, as amended or recodified from time to time, have been complied with to Bank's satisfaction);
(iv) any account which represents an obligation of an account debtor located in a foreign country other than an account debtor located in the Canadian provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, Saskatchewan or the Yukon Territory so long as, in Bank's determination, such Canadian jurisdictions recognize Bank's first priority security interest in and right to collect such account as a consequence of any security agreements and UCC filings in favor of Bank and except to the extent any such account, in Bank's determination, is supported by a letter of credit or insured under a policy of foreign credit insurance, in each case in form, substance and issued by a party acceptable to Bank;
(v) any account which arises from the sale or lease to or performance of services for, or represents an obligation of, an employee, director, affiliate, partner, member, parent or subsidiary of Borrower;
(vi) that portion of any account which represents interim or progress xxxxxxxx or retention rights on the part of the account debtor;
(vii) any account which represents an obligation of any account debtor when twenty percent (20%) or more of Borrower's accounts from such account debtor are not eligible pursuant to (i) above;
(viii) that portion of any account from an account debtor which represents the amount by which Borrower's total accounts from said account debtor exceeds twenty-five percent (25%) of Borrower's total accounts; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to any accounts owing by AutoZone so long as the senior unsecured debt rating of AutoZone, Inc. by Standard & Poor's (a division of the McGraw-Hills Companies) is BBB- or better and such rating by Xxxxx'x Investors Service is Baa3 or better; and
(ix) any account deemed ineligible by Bank when Bank, in its sole discretion, deems the creditworthiness or financial condition of the account debtor, or the industry in which the account debtor is engaged, to be unsatisfactory. As used herein, "Appraised Net Recovery Value" of Borrower's inventory shall mean the amount reflected as the "net recovery value" of Borrower's inventory in the most recent quarterly appraisal of inventory (performed by the Great American Group or another appraiser acceptable to Bank) required pursuant to Section 4.11.
Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans PNC may, at its option, exercisable at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if PNC so requests, accrued interest thereon, provided that no Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in excess of its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its Ratable Share of Letter of Credit Obligations. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] without regard to any of the requirements of that provision. PNC shall provide notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile or telex) that such Revolving Credit Loans are to be made under this Section 2.6.5 and of the apportionment among the Lenders, and the Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] are then satisfied) by the time PNC so requests, which shall not be earlier than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day next after the date the Lenders receive such notice from PNC.
