Agent Advances (i) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion, upon notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders, (A) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) at any time that any of the other conditions precedent set forth in Article IX have not been satisfied, to make Base Rate Loans to the Borrower on behalf of the Lenders in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base (provided that the making of any such Loan does not cause the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings to exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount) which the Agent, in its good faith judgment, deems necessary or desirable (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (2) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations (including through Base Rate Loans for the purpose of enabling Holdings and its Subsidiaries to meet their payroll and associated Tax obligations), and/or (3) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 14.7 (any of such advances are herein referred to as “Agent Advances”); provided, that the Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authorization to make Agent Advances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Agent’s receipt thereof.
(ii) The Agent Advances shall be secured by the Collateral Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Base Rate Loans and Obligations hereunder.
The Revolving Loans (a) Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the Termination Date applicable to such Lender in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed at any time such Lender’s Available Commitment at such time. Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment and as hereinabove and hereinafter provided, including without limitation Section 2.01(b), the Borrower may request a Borrowing hereunder, and repay or prepay Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.14 and utilize the resulting increase in the Available Commitments for further Extensions of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof.
(b) In no event shall the Borrower be entitled to request or receive any Borrowing that (i) would exceed the Available Commitments or (ii) would cause the Outstanding Credits to exceed the Commitments.
Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 5.8.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or 5.
Disbursement of Advances (a) Upon receiving any Request for Revolving Credit Advance from Borrowers under Section 2.3 hereof, Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender by wire, telex or telephone (confirmed by wire, telecopy or telex) of the amount of such Advance being requested and the date such Revolving Credit Advance is to be made by each Revolving Credit Lender in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Percentage of such Advance. Unless such Revolving Credit Lender’s commitment to make Revolving Credit Advances hereunder shall have been suspended or terminated in accordance with this Agreement, each such Revolving Credit Lender shall make available the amount of its Revolving Credit Percentage of each Revolving Credit Advance in immediately available funds to Agent, as follows:
(i) for Prime-based Advances, at the office of Agent located at Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, not later than 1:00 p.m. (Detroit time) on the date of such Advance; and
(ii) for Eurodollar-based Advances, at the Agent’s Correspondent for the account of the Eurodollar Lending Office of the Agent, not later than 12:00 p.m. (the time of the Agent’s Correspondent) on the date of such Advance.
(b) Subject to submission of an executed Request for Revolving Credit Advance by Borrowers without exceptions noted in the compliance certification therein, Agent shall make available to Borrowers the aggregate of the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders in Dollars:
(i) for Prime-based Advances, not later than 4:00 p.m. (Detroit time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Advance, by credit to an account of Borrowers maintained with Agent or to such other account or third party as Borrowers may reasonably direct in writing, provided such direction is timely given; and
(ii) for Eurodollar-based Advances, not later than 4:00 p.m. (the time of the Agent’s Correspondent) on the date of such Revolving Credit Advance, by credit to an account of Borrowers maintained with Agent’s Correspondent or to such other account or third party as Borrowers may direct, provided such direction is timely given.
(c) Agent shall deliver the documents and papers received by it for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender to such Revolving Credit Lender. Unless Agent shall have been notified by any Revolving Credit Lender prior to the date of any proposed Revolving Credit Advance that such Revolving Credit Lender does not intend to make available to Agent such Revolving Credit Lender’s Percentage of such Advance, Agent may assume that such Revolving Credit Lender has made such amount available to Agent on such date, as aforesaid. Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrowers the amount of such payment in reliance on such assumption. If such amount is not in fact made available to Agent by such Revolving Credit Lender, as aforesaid, Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Credit Lender. If such Revolving Credit Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon Agent’s demand therefor and the Agent has in fact made a corresponding amount available to Borrowers, the Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers and Borrowers shall pay such amount to Agent, if such notice is delivered to Borrowers prior to 1:00 p.m. (Detroit time) on a Business Day, on the day such notice is received, and otherwise on the next Business Day, and such amount paid by Borrowers shall be applied as a prepayment of the Revolving Credit (without any corresponding reduction in the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment), reimbursing Agent for having funded said amounts on behalf of such Revolving Credit Lender. The Borrowers shall retain their claims against such Revolving Credit Lender with respect to the amounts repaid by it to Agent and, if such Revolving Credit Lender subsequently makes such amounts available to Agent, Agent shall promptly make such amounts available to the Borrowers as a Revolving Credit Advance. Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender or Borrowers, as the case may be, but without duplication, interest on such amount in respect of each day from the date such amount was made available by Agent to Borrowers, to the date such amount is recovered by Agent, at a rate per annum equal to:
(i) in the case of such Revolving Credit Lender, for the first two (2) Business Days such amount remains unpaid, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter, at the rate of interest then applicable to such Revolving Credit Advances; and
(ii) in the case of Borrowers, the rate of interest then applicable to such Advance of the Revolving Credit. Until such Revolving Credit Lender has paid Agent such amount, such Revolving Credit Lender shall have no interest in or rights with respect to such Advance for any purpose whatsoever. The obligation of any Revolving Credit Lender to make any Revolving Credit Advance hereunder shall not be affected by the failure of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make any Advance hereunder, and no Revolving Credit Lender shall have any liability to the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries, the Agent, any other Revolving Credit Lender, or any other party for another Revolving Credit Lender’s failure to make any loan or Advance hereunder.
Term Loan Advances Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding for each Term Loan Advance shall accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to one percent (1.0%) above the Prime Rate, which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.3(d) below.
Loan Advances During the Revolving Period, the Borrower may, at its option, request the Revolving Lenders to make advances of funds (each, a “Loan Advance”) by delivering a Funding Notice with respect to such Loan Advance to the Administrative Agent, which shall provide notification to the Revolving Lenders with respect thereto, in an aggregate amount up to the Availability as of the proposed Funding Date of the Loan Advance; provided, however, that no Revolving Lender shall be obligated to make any Loan Advance on or after the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the earlier to occur of the applicable Revolving Period End Date or the Termination Date. Following the receipt of a Funding Notice during the Revolving Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Revolving Lenders shall fund such Loan Advance.
The Revolving Credit Advances Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Revolving Credit Advances to any Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount (based in respect of any Revolving Credit Advance denominated in a Major Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing), not to exceed at any time outstanding such Lender's Commitment, provided that the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be deemed used from time to time to the extent of the aggregate amount (based in respect of any Competitive Bid Advance denominated in a Foreign Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars at such time) of the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding and such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall be allocated among the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments (such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments being a "Competitive Bid Reduction"). Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Major Currency determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Major Currency determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing) in excess thereof and shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments; provided, however, that if there is no unused portion of the Commitment of one or more Lenders at the time of any requested Revolving Credit Borrowing such Borrowing shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lender or Lenders who do then have an unused portion of their Commitments ratably according to the unused portion of such Commitments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Revolving Credit Borrowing may be made in a Major Currency if, after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Revolving Credit Advances denominated in Major Currencies, together with the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies, would exceed $500,000,000. Within the limits of each Lender's Commitment, any Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay pursuant to Section 2.09 and reborrow under this Section 2.01.
Revolving Loan Notes The Revolving Loans made by the Lenders to a Borrower shall be evidenced, upon request by any Lender, by a promissory note of such Borrower payable to each Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.7(a) hereto (the “Revolving Loan Notes”) and in a principal amount equal to the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Loan Commitment as originally in effect.
Protective Advances (a) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Loans to the Borrowers, on behalf of all Lenders, which the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, 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 Loans and other Secured Obligations or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 9.03) and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (any of such Loans are herein referred to as “Protective Advances”); provided that, the aggregate principal amount of Protective Advances outstanding at any time, together with the aggregate principal amount of Overadvances outstanding at such time, shall not at any time exceed 10% of the Line Cap; provided, further, that the aggregate amount of outstanding Protective Advances plus the Aggregate Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment. Protective Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied. The Protective Advances shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. All Protective Advances shall be ABR Borrowings. The making of a Protective Advance on one occasion shall not obligate the Administrative Agent to make any Protective Advance on any other occasion. The Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Availability and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request the Revolving Lenders to make a Revolving Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to fund their risk participations described in Section 2.04(b).
(b) Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default), each Lender 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 Applicable Percentage. 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, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance.
Disbursement of Revolving Credit and Swingline Loans Not later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed borrowing date, (i) each Revolving Credit Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Borrower, at the office of the Administrative Agent in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans to be made on such borrowing date and (ii) the Swingline Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Borrower, at the office of the Administrative Agent in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Loans to be made on such borrowing date. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each borrowing requested pursuant to this Section in immediately available funds by crediting or wiring such proceeds to the deposit account of the Borrower identified in the most recent notice substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C (a “Notice of Account Designation”) delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or as may be otherwise agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time. Subject to Section 5.7 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse the portion of the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loan requested pursuant to this Section to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender has not made available to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Loan. Revolving Credit Loans to be made for the purpose of refunding Swingline Loans shall be made by the Revolving Credit Lenders as provided in Section 2.2(b).
