Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower through a Revolving Credit Loan or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.
Lender Participations (a) Although any Lender may grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer by novation its rights and obligations or assign its rights under all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in Sections 2.12 and 13.01) and the participant shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder; and
Risk Participations, Drawings and Reimbursements (a) Immediately upon the Issuance of a Letter of Credit by an Issuer, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuer a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Revolving Percentage of such Revolving Lender, times (ii) the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively. For purposes of Section 2.01, each Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender by an amount equal to the amount of such participation.
Reimbursement; Participations (a) If Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall pay to Issuing Bank, on the same day (“Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Base Rate Revolver Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by Borrowers. The obligation of Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary. Whether or not Borrower Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolver Loans in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.
Reimbursement and Participations (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank immediately on demand at the Principal Office all amounts required to pay all drafts drawn or purporting to be drawn under the Letters of Credit and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the Letters of Credit, and in any event and without demand to place in possession of the Issuing Bank (which shall include Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility if permitted by SECTION 2.1 and Swing Line Loans if permitted by SECTION 2.4) sufficient funds to pay all debts and liabilities arising under any Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank agrees to give the Borrower prompt notice of any request for a draw under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank may charge any account the Borrower may have with it for any and all amounts the Issuing Bank pays under a Letter of Credit, plus charges and reasonable expenses as from time to time agreed to by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower; provided that to the extent permitted by SECTION 2.1(c)(iii) and SECTION 2.4, amounts shall be paid pursuant to Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility or, if the Borrower shall elect, by Swing Line Loans. The Borrower agrees to pay the Issuing Bank interest on any Reimbursement Obligations not paid when due hereunder at the Default Rate.
Assignment; Participations (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the JLM Domestic Entities, MacDonald, the Bank and their respective successors and assigns, except that the JLM Domestic Entities and MacDonald may not assign or transfer THEIR RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS hereunder. The Bank may, with the prior written consent of the JLM Domestic Entities or MacDonald, assign, or sell participation in, all or any part of any Loan or its rights and obligations under the Letters of Credit to another bank or other entity, in which event (i) in the case of an assignment, upon notice thereof by the Bank to the JLM Domestic Entities, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would have if it were a Bank hereunder) and (ii) in the case of a participation, the participant shall have no rights under the Facility Documents and all amounts payable by the JLM Domestic Entities under Articles 2 and 3 shall be determined as if the Bank had not sold such participation. The agreement executed by the Bank in favor of the participant shall not give the participant the right to require the Bank to take or omit to take any action hereunder except action directly relating to (i) the extension of a payment date with respect to any portion of the principal of or interest on any amount outstanding hereunder allocated to such participant, (ii) the reduction of the principal amount outstanding hereunder or (iii) the reduction of the rate of interest payable on such amount or any amount of fees payable hereunder to a rate or amount, as the case may be, below that which the participant is entitled to receive under its agreement with the Bank. The Bank may furnish any information concerning any JLM Entity or MacDonald in the possession of the Bank from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants); provided that the Bank shall require any such prospective assignee or such participant (prospective or otherwise) to agree in writing to maintain the confidentiality of such information.
Letter of Credit Participations (a) Immediately upon the issuance by the Letter of Credit Issuer of any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Credit Lender (each such Revolving Credit Lender, in its capacity under this Section 3.3, an “L/C Participant”), and each such L/C Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (each an “L/C Participation”), to the extent of such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in each Letter of Credit, each substitute therefor, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto; provided that the Letter of Credit Fees will be paid directly to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the L/C Participants as provided in Section 4.1(b) and the L/C Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any Fronting Fees.

Assignments; Participations (a) Any Lender may, with the written consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees (provided that no consent of the Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment and delegation by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender) (each an “Assignee”) all, or any ratable part of all, of the Loans, the Commitments and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (provided that, unless an assignor Lender has assigned and delegated all of its Loans and Commitments, no such assignment and/or delegation shall be permitted unless, after giving effect thereto, such assignor Lender retains a Commitment in a minimum amount of $5,000,000); provided, however, that the Borrower and the Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender and the Assignee; (ii) such Lender and its Assignee shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit F (“Assignment and Acceptance”) together with any note or notes subject to such assignment and (iii) unless the assignment is to a Lender’s Affiliate, the assignor Lender or Assignee has paid to the Agent a processing fee in the amount of $3,000.
Advances Automatic; Participations In the event that Agent or any Revolving Lender shall make any payment on or pursuant to any Letter of Credit Obligation, such payment shall then be deemed automatically to constitute a Revolving Credit Advance under Section 1.1(a) of the Agreement regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and notwithstanding Borrower's failure to satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2, and each Revolving Lender shall be obligated to pay its Pro Rata Share thereof in accordance with the Agreement. The failure of any Revolving Lender to make available to Agent for Agent's own account its Pro Rata Share of any such Revolving Credit Advance or payment by Agent under or in respect of a Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Revolving Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to Agent its Pro Rata Share thereof, but no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make available such other Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of any such payment.
