Applicable Margins The ABR Applicable Margin and the LIBOR Applicable Margin to be used in calculating the interest rate applicable to different Types of Advances shall vary from time to time in accordance with the long-term unsecured debt ratings from Xxxxx’x, and Fitch of the General Partner and the Borrower. In the event the General Partner and the Borrower have different ratings, the rating of the higher rated entity shall be used. In the event the rating agencies are split on the rating for the higher rated entity, the lower rating for such entity shall be deemed to be the applicable rating (e.g., if the higher rated entity’s Xxxxx’x debt rating is Baa1, and its Fitch’s rating is BBB, then the Applicable Margins shall be computed based on the Fitch rating), and the Applicable Margins shall be adjusted effective on the next Business Day following any change in the higher rated entity’s Xxxxx’x debt rating, and/or Fitch’s debt rating, as the case may be. The applicable debt ratings and the Applicable Margins are set forth in the table attached as Exhibit A. In the event that Fitch or Xxxxx’x shall discontinue their ratings of the REIT industry, the General Partner or the Borrower, a mutually agreeable substitute rating agency (or two mutually agreeable substitute agencies if both existing rating agencies discontinue such ratings) shall be selected by the Required Lenders and the Borrower. If the Required Lenders and the Borrower cannot agree on a substitute rating agency or substitute rating agencies within thirty (30) days after such discontinuance, or if Fitch and Xxxxx’x shall discontinue their ratings of the REIT industry, the Borrower, or the General Partner, the Applicable Margin to be used for the calculation of interest on Advances hereunder shall be the highest Applicable Margin for each Type. If a rating agency downgrade or discontinuance results in an increase in the ABR Applicable Margin, the LIBOR Applicable Margin, or Facility Fee Rate and if such downgrade or discontinuance is reversed and the affected Applicable Margin is restored within ninety (90) days thereafter, at the Borrower’s request, the Borrower shall receive a credit against interest next due the Lenders equal to interest accrued from time to time during such period of downgrade or discontinuance and actually paid by the Borrower on the Advances at the differential between such Applicable Margins, and the differential of the Facility Fee paid during such period of downgrade. If a rating agency upgrade results in a decrease in the ABR Applicable Margin, LIBOR Applicable Margin or Facility Fee Rate and if such upgrade is reversed and the affected Applicable Margin is restored within ninety (90) days thereafter, Borrower shall be required to pay an amount to the Lenders equal to the interest differential on the Advances and the differential on the Facility Fees during such period of upgrade.
Applicable Margin (i) The Applicable Margin provided for in Section 5.1(a) with respect to any Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans (the "Applicable Margin") shall be based upon the table set forth below and shall be determined and adjusted quarterly on the date (each a "Calculation Date") ten (10) Business Days after the date by which the Borrower is required to provide an Officer's Compliance Certificate for the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower; provided, however, that (A) the initial Applicable Margin for the Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans shall be based on Pricing Level IV (as shown below) and shall remain at Pricing Level IV until December 31, 2001, and, thereafter the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower preceding the applicable Calculation Date, and (B) if the Borrower fails to provide the Officer's Compliance Certificate as required by Section 8.2 for the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower preceding the applicable Calculation Date, the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans from such Calculation Date shall be based on Pricing Level IV (as shown below) until such time as an appropriate Officer's Compliance Certificate is provided, at which time the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower preceding such Calculation Date. The Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans shall be effective from one Calculation Date until the next Calculation Date. Any adjustment in the Applicable Margin shall be applicable to all Extensions of Credit then existing or subsequently made or issued.

The Applicable Margin for Term Loans shall be effective from one Calculation Date until the next Calculation Date. Any adjustment in the Applicable Margin shall be applicable to all Term Loans then existing or subsequently made or issued. Applicable LIBOR Applicable Base Rate Level Total Leverage Ratio Rate Margin (bps) Margin (bps) ----- -------------------- ----------------- -------------------- I < 2.50x 300.0 200.0 II greater than or equal to 2.50x 325.0 225.0
Credit Terms Notwithstanding Section 3.2, above, Station may grant credit terms to Advertiser, subject to Station’s completion of a satisfactory credit check. If Station has granted Advertiser credit terms, payment is due within thirty (30) days of invoice date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Station reserves the right to revoke Advertiser’s credit in the event Station reasonably determines that Advertiser is no longer creditworthy. In such an instance, Station may require payments for future Orders or Campaigns to be on a cash-in-advance basis (and, in such an event, such payments must be made no later than five (5) business days prior to the Campaign start date in accordance with Section 3.2, above).
Extended Terms Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term for up to five (5) consecutive renewal terms of ten (10) years each (each, an “Extended Term”), provided that (unless Landlord shall elect in its sole discretion to waive any such condition), at the time Tenant exercises a right to extend the Term, (a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (b) on the date of the exercise of the extension option and on the first day of each such Extended Term, there shall be a Guaranty in favor of Landlord from a Qualifying Guarantor which shall either meet the standard in clause (a) or (c) of the definition of Qualifying Guarantor or shall provide Landlord with the audited financial statement described in the last paragraph of the definition of Qualifying Guarantor to establish that it meets the criteria in clause (b) thereof to be a Qualifying Guarantor, even if such Entity is a BP Affiliate. All of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Agreement shall apply to each Extended Term (including, but without limitation, the two percent annual Minimum Rent increases provided in the definition of Minimum Rent), except that Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term beyond the expiration of the fifth Extended Term. If Tenant shall elect to exercise its option to extend the Term for any Extended Term, it shall do so by giving Landlord Notice thereof not later than eighteen (18) months prior to the commencement of the applicable Extended Term, it being understood and agreed that time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of any such Notice. If Tenant shall fail to give any such Notice, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Fixed Term or the applicable Extended Term, and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Agreement. If Tenant shall give such Notice, the extension of this Agreement shall be automatically effected without the execution of any additional documents; it being understood and agreed, however, that Tenant and Landlord shall execute such documents and agreements as either party shall reasonably require to evidence the same.
Most Favored Lender (a) If the Bank Facility, or any guarantee by a Subsidiary of the Company’s obligations thereunder, or any Other Note Agreement or any guarantee by a Subsidiary of the Company’s obligations thereunder (the Bank Facility, each Other Note Agreement and any of such guarantees being referred to, collectively, as an “MFL Document”), shall be amended, modified or supplemented after the date hereof and during the Covenant Relief Period, whether directly or indirectly, and the effect of such amendment, modification or supplement shall be to impose on the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor any one or more conditions, covenants, events of default or other terms (other than those referred to in Section 3.2 of this Agreement) that are not contained herein, in the Note Agreement or in the Subsidiary Guarantee (the “Relevant Documents”), or that would, if incorporated into the Relevant Documents, be more favorable to the holders of the Notes than the conditions, covenants, events of default or other terms contained in the Relevant Documents (any such condition, covenant, event of default or other term being referred to herein as a “More Favorable Provision”), then, subject to Section 3.1(b), such More Favorable Provision shall be automatically incorporated in the Relevant Document as if set forth fully therein, mutatis mutandis, and shall be effective as of the date such More Favorable Provision becomes effective in the relevant MFL Document. Thereafter, such More Favorable Provision may only be amended in accordance with the provisions of the Note Agreement.
(b) The Company shall give written notice to each holder of Notes of the effectiveness of any More Favorable Provision within 10 days after execution of the document containing such More Favorable Provision, which notice shall include a copy of such document. If the Required Holders give written notice to the Company, within 20 days after receipt of the Company’s notice, objecting to the inclusion of such More Favorable Provision in the Relevant Document, such More Favorable Provision shall not be incorporated in the Relevant Document.
(c) Upon the written request of the Company or the Required Holders, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as applicable, and the Required Holders shall enter into an amendment of the Relevant Document to reflect the inclusion of the More Favorable Provision. All costs of the holders of the Notes incurred in connection with any such amendment (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the holders) shall be paid by the Company promptly after its receipt of a statement in respect thereof.
(d) For the avoidance of doubt, all of the provisions of any Relevant Document shall otherwise remain in effect notwithstanding the incorporation therein of one or more More Favorable Provisions.
Interest Rate Options The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that (i) there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans and (ii) if an Event of Default or Potential Default exists and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans and the Required Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any indemnity under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate.
Most Favored Lender Status In the event that the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement enter into, assume or otherwise become bound by or obligated under any agreement creating or evidencing Indebtedness of the Company in excess of $10,000,000 in principal amount (other than Indebtedness permitted by Section 10.6) (a “Reference Agreement”) containing one or more Additional Covenants, the terms of this Agreement shall, without any further action on the part of the Company or any of the holders of the Notes, be deemed to be amended automatically to include each Additional Covenant contained in such Reference Agreement. The Company further covenants to promptly execute and deliver at its expense (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of counsel for the holders of the Notes) an amendment to this Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders evidencing the amendment of this Agreement to include such Additional Covenants, provided that the execution and delivery of such amendment shall not be a precondition to the effectiveness of such amendment as provided for in this Section 9.9, but shall merely be for the convenience of the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if any Additional Covenant that has been incorporated herein pursuant to this Section 9.9 is subsequently amended or modified in the relevant Reference Agreement, such Additional Covenant, as amended or modified, shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this Agreement and replace such Additional Covenant as originally incorporated, mutatis mutandi, as if set forth fully in this Agreement, effective beginning on the date on which such amendment or modification is effective under the relevant Reference Agreement and (B) if any Additional Covenant that has been incorporated herein pursuant to this Section 9.9 is subsequently removed or terminated from the relevant Reference Agreement or the Company is otherwise no longer required to comply therewith under the relevant Reference Agreement, the Company, beginning on the effective date such Additional Covenant is removed or terminated from the relevant Reference Agreement or the Company otherwise no longer required to comply with such Additional Covenant, shall no longer be or remain obligated to comply with such Additional Covenant hereunder. In the event that an Additional Covenant is amended, modified, removed or terminated pursuant to this Section 9.9 and the Company and the Required Holders previously entered into an amendment to incorporate such Additional Covenant herein, the holders of the Notes, upon the request of the Company, shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such amendment, modification, removal or termination of such Additional Covenant; provided that the failure of the holders of the Notes and the Company to execute and deliver any such amendment shall not adversely affect the automatic incorporation of any amended or modified Additional Covenants into, or the automatic removal or termination of Additional Covenants from, this Agreement as provided above in this Section 9.9.
Facility Fee The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a facility fee, in Dollars, equal to the Applicable Rate for facility fees times the actual daily amount of the Aggregate Commitments (or, if the Aggregate Commitments have terminated, on the Outstanding Amount of all Committed Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations), regardless of usage, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.18. The facility fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period (and thereafter so long as any Committed Loans, Swing Line Loans or L/C Obligations remain outstanding), including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV are not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand). The facility fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate for facility fees during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate for facility fees separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate for facility fees was in effect.
