Borrower may request Equipment Advances at any time during the Draw Period, provided that the initial Equipment Advance shall not exceed One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) (the “Initial Equipment Advance”). The aggregate outstanding amount of Equipment Advances shall not exceed the Equipment Line. Each Equipment Advance shall not exceed sixty percent (60%) of the invoice amount of equipment and software listed in that certain Machinery and Equipment 2013 Projection delivered to Bank on or about the Closing Date (which Borrower shall, in any case, have purchased, (i) with respect to the Initial Equipment Advance, within one hundred eighty (180) days and (ii) with respect to all subsequent Equipment Advances, within ninety (90) days, of the date of the corresponding Equipment Advance), excluding taxes, shipping, warranty charges, freight discounts and installation expense.

Bank shall be entitled to rely on any facsimile notice given by a person who Bank reasonably believes to be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any damages or loss suffered by Bank as a result of such reliance.”
2. Section 2.1(c) of the Agreement hereby is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Term Advances The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Term Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Advances in quarterly installments each equal to $412,500 (which is equal to five percent (5%) of $8,250,000). Such quarterly installments shall be due and payable on each March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st, commencing with December 31, 2012, and a final installment of the remaining, unpaid principal balance of the Term Advances payable on the Term Maturity Date.
Optional Prepayments of Advances The Borrower may, upon at least two Business Days’ notice, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances, and upon notice not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and, if such notice is given, the Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c).
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.
Subsequent Advances The obligation of FINOVA to make any advance shall be subject to the further conditions precedent that, on and as of the date of such advance: (a) the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in this Agreement shall be accurate, before and after giving effect to such advance or issuance and to the application of any proceeds thereof; (b) no Event of Default and no event which, with notice or passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such advance or issuance or from the application of any proceeds thereof; (c) no material adverse change has occurred in the Borrower's business, operations, financial condition, in the condition of the Collateral, or other assets of Borrower or in the prospect of repayment of the Obligations; and (d) FINOVA shall have received such other approvals, opinions or documents as FINOVA shall reasonably request.
