Application of Prepayments Reductions (i) Any prepayment of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.07(a) shall be applied as specified by the Borrower in the applicable notice of prepayment; provided, in the event the Borrower fails to specify the Loans to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment shall be applied to prepay each Class of outstanding Loans on a pro rata basis and, within each Class, to reduce the remaining scheduled installments of principal in direct order of maturity.
(ii) Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(i) and Section 2.07(b)(iv) shall be applied ratably to each Class of outstanding Loans and, within each such Class, (i) first, to reduce the next eight scheduled payments required under Section 2.06(a) (or the applicable Incremental Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Extension Amendment) in direct order of maturity and (ii) second, to the remaining scheduled payments required thereunder on a pro rata basis; provided that, if at the time any amount is required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(i) the Borrower is required to offer to repurchase or prepay Permitted Pari Passu Refinancing Debt or Incremental Equivalent Debt pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with Net Cash Proceeds received from an Asset Sale or Recovery Event (such Permitted Pari Passu Refinancing Debt or Incremental Equivalent Debt required to be offered to be so repurchased or prepaid, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then the Borrower may apply such Net Cash Proceeds on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such proceeds allocated to Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be allocated to the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Loans and to the repurchase or prepayment of such Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Loans that would otherwise have been required pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(i) shall be reduced accordingly; provided, further, that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness purchased or prepaid, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.
(iii) Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(ii) and Section 2.07(b)(v) shall be applied ratably to each Class of outstanding Loans and, within each such Class, to the remaining scheduled payments required thereunder on a pro rata basis.
(iv) Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(iii) shall be applied ratably to each Class of outstanding Loans and, within each such Class, (i) first, to reduce the next eight scheduled payments required under Section 2.06(a) (or the applicable Incremental Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Extension Amendment) in direct order of maturity and (ii) second, to the remaining scheduled payments required thereunder on a pro rata basis; provided that any prepayment of Loans with the Net Cash Proceeds of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied solely to each applicable Class of Credit Agreement Refinanced Debt.
(v) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Borrower is required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Loans (other than any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(v)), not less than five Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the Borrower is required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Loan of the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount (such declined amount, the “Declined Proceeds”). Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). Any Declined Proceeds may be retained by the Borrower.

If any such excess remains after repayment in full of the aggregate outstanding Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans, each Borrower shall provide cash collateral for its then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 8.2 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit) in an amount equal to 105% of (A) the percentage obtained by dividing the aggregate outstanding amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations owing by such Borrower by the aggregate outstanding amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations owing by all Borrowers multiplied by (B) the aggregate amount of such excess.
