All payments by each Revolving Lender shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

Provided that each Lender has funded all payments or Advances required to be made by it and purchased all participations required to be purchased by it under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of such Settlement Date, Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid by Borrowers since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Loans held by it.

Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.
Making of Revolving Loans (i) In the event that Swing Lender is not obligated to make a Swing Loan, then after receipt of a request for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(i), Agent shall notify the Lenders by telecopy, telephone, email, or other electronic form of transmission, of the requested Borrowing; such notification to be sent on the Business Day that is (A) in the case of a Base Rate Loan, at least one Business Day prior to the requested Funding Date, or (B) in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, prior to 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date. If Agent has notified the Lenders of a requested Borrowing on the Business Day that is one Business Day prior to the Funding Date, then each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Agent in immediately available funds, to Agent’s Account, not later than 10:00 a.m. on the Business Day that is the requested Funding Date. After Agent’s receipt of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans from the Lenders, Agent shall make the proceeds thereof available to Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by transferring immediately available funds equal to such proceeds received by Agent to the Designated Account; provided, that subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(d)(ii), no Lender shall have an obligation to make any Revolving Loan, if (1) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing unless such condition has been waived, or (2) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date. (ii) Unless Agent receives notice from a Lender prior to 9:30 a.m. on the Business Day that is the requested Funding Date relative to a requested Borrowing as to which Agent has notified the Lenders of a requested Borrowing that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to Agent for the account of Borrowers the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, Agent may assume that each Lender has made or will make such amount available to Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount. If, on the requested Funding Date, any Lender shall not have remitted the full amount that it is required to make available to Agent in immediately available funds and if Agent has made available to Borrowers such amount on the requested Funding Date, then such Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Agent in immediately available funds, to Agent’s Account, no later than 10:00 a.m. on the Business Day that is the first Business Day after the requested Funding Date (in which case, the interest accrued on such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing for the Funding Date shall be for Agent’s separate account). If any Lender shall not remit the full amount that it is required to make available to Agent in immediately available funds as and when required hereby and if Agent has made available to Borrowers such amount, then that Lender shall be obligated to immediately remit such amount to Agent, together with interest at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day until the date on which such amount is so remitted. A notice submitted by Agent to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this Section 2.3(c)(ii) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If the amount that a Lender is required to remit is made available to Agent, then such payment to Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, Agent will notify Administrative Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Agent, Borrowers shall pay such amount to Agent for Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Loans composing such Borrowing.
Limitation on Investments, Loans and Advances Make any advance, loan, extension of credit or capital contribution to, or purchase any stock, bonds, notes, debentures or other securities of or any assets constituting a business unit of, or make any other investment in (such advances, loans, extensions of credit, capital contributions, purchases and investments being herein called "Investments"), any Person, except: (a) extensions of trade credit in the ordinary course of business; (b) Investments in Cash Equivalents; (c) any Investment by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Special Purpose Subsidiary) in Persons engaged in the telecommunications business or businesses related thereto, provided that (i) such Person, if it shall be a Subsidiary, shall become a Restricted Subsidiary unless (A) such Person or assets shall be acquired with (I) proceeds of capital contributed to the Borrower expressly for such purpose and/or (II) funds of the Borrower in such amount that, after giving effect thereto, the Special Payment Condition shall be satisfied, provided that the Borrower shall have made a Pro Rata Payment Offer in an amount equal to such Investment and (B) the Borrower designates such Person, by notice to the Administrative Agent, as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and (ii) immediately prior and after giving effect to such Investment, the Borrower is in Pro Forma Compliance; (d) any Investment by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Special Purpose Subsidiary) in Persons not engaged in the telecommunications business or businesses related thereto if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of such Investments then held by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries does not exceed (x) at any time prior to the date on which the Special Payment Condition shall have occurred, $50,000,000, or (y) thereafter, 5% of then Total Capitalization; provided that (i) such Person, or the Person which shall become the owner of any assets acquired in connection with such Investment, shall become a Restricted Subsidiary unless (A) such Person or assets shall be acquired with (I) proceeds of capital contributed to the Borrower expressly for such purpose and/or (II) funds of the Borrower in such amount that after giving effect thereto, the Special Payment Condition shall be satisfied, provided that the Borrower shall have made a Pro Rata Payment Offer in an amount equal to such Investment and (B) the Borrower designates such Person, by notice to the Administrative Agent, an Unrestricted Subsidiary and (ii) immediately prior and after giving effect to such Investment, the Borrower is in Pro Forma Compliance; (e) any Investment arising from the acquisition by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries of any System or Systems in connection with any Asset Swap, provided that (i) to the extent that the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries give consideration for the System or Systems acquired by them in connection with such Asset Swap that is in addition to the System or Systems transferred by them in exchange therefor, such Asset Swap shall be deemed to constitute an Investment and shall be permitted only if the provisions of subsection 6.6(e) and 6.8(c) shall be complied with in connection therewith and (ii) immediately prior and after giving effect to such Investment the Borrower is in Pro Forma Compliance; (f) loans and advances to employees of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed $10,000,000 at any one time outstanding; (g) Investments by the Borrower in its Restricted Subsidiaries and Investments by any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Special Purpose Subsidiary) in the Borrower or by any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Special Purpose Subsidiary) in any other Restricted Subsidiary; and (h) promissory notes and other deferred payment obligations that constitute proceeds of Asset Sales that are permitted by subsection 6.6.

Funding of Revolving Loans Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly inform the Lenders as to the terms thereof. Each Lender will make its pro rata share of the Revolving Loans available to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. on the date specified in the Notice of Borrowing by deposit (in U.S. dollars) of immediately available funds at the offices of the Administrative Agent at its principal office in New York, New York, or at such other address as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing. All Revolving Loans shall be made by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of each Lender's Commitment Percentage. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure or delay by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to fulfill its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of any such Loan that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Loans to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Loans, and the Administrative Agent in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion without any obligation to do so) make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be able to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the relevant Borrower and such Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender or such Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to (a) from such Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan pursuant to the Notice of Borrowing and (b) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Rate.
