of the Credit Agreement Section 8.2.4 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
Amount and Terms of the Credit Facility 2.1. The Commitments; Increase in Total Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding that will not result in such Lender's Exposure exceeding such Lender's Commitment. During the Commitment Period the Borrower may use the Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event may Loans be borrowed under this Section 2 if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Total Exposures at such time would exceed the Total Commitments then in effect. The Loans may from time to time be Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.6. (b) In the event that the Borrower wishes from time to time to increase the Total Commitments, it shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount (the "Commitment Increase Amount") of such proposed increase (such notice, a "Commitment Increase Notice"), and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of such proposed increase. The Borrower may, at its election (i) offer one or more of the Lenders the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the Commitment Increase Amount pursuant to paragraph (d) below and/or (ii) with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), offer one or more additional banks, financial institutions or other entities the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the Commitment Increase Amount pursuant to paragraph (c) below. Each Commitment Increase Notice shall specify which Lenders and/or banks, financial institutions or other entities the Borrower desires to participate in such Commitment increase. The Borrower or, if requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, will notify such Lenders and/or banks, financial institutions or other entities of such offer. Each Commitment Increase Amount shall be at least $50,000,000. (c) Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which the Borrower selects to offer participation in the increased Commitments and which elects to become a party to this Agreement and provide a Commitment in an amount so offered and accepted by it pursuant to Section 2.1(b)
Replacement of the L/C Issuer The L/C Issuer may be replaced at any time by written agreement between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced L/C Issuer and the successor L/C Issuer. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the L/C Issuer. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(m). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor L/C Issuer shall have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “L/C Issuer” shall be deemed to include such successor or any previous L/C Issuer, or such successor and all previous L/C Issuer, as the context shall require. After the replacement of the L/C Issuer hereunder, the replaced L/C Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
Credit Facility (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date: (i) Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Commitment and the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, the “Borrowing Limit”); and (ii) upon receipt of a copy of each Borrowing Notice, (A) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice, and (B) each Co-Agent belonging to a Conduit Group shall determine whether its Conduit, if any, will fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Conduit Group’s Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice. In the event that a Co-Agent elects not to have its Conduit make any such Loan to Borrower, the applicable Co-Agent shall promptly notify the Funding Agent (who shall promptly notify the Borrower) and, unless Borrower cancels its Borrowing Notice as to all Lenders, (1) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance, (2) each of such Conduit’s Committed Lenders severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of its Conduit Group’s Percentage of such Loan and (3) each other Conduit shall fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the required Advance, provided that (x) at no time may the aggregate principal amount of any Conduit Group’s Loans outstanding, exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate amount of such Conduit’s Committed Lenders’ Commitments, and (y) such Conduit Group’s Percentage of the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, such Conduit Group’s “Allocation Limit”), and (y) at no time may the aggregate principal amount of any Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s Loans outstanding exceed the lesser of (x) such Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s Commitment and (y) its Percentage of the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, such Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s “Allocation Limit”). Each Advance shall be made ratably amongst the Conduit Groups and the Unaffiliated Committed Lenders, collectively, in accordance with their respective Percentages. Each of the Advances, and all other Obligations of Borrower, shall be secured by the Collateral as provided in Article XIII. Subject to Sections 1.6(d) and (e), it is the intent of the Conduits, but not the Committed Lenders, to fund all Advances by the issuance of Commercial Paper. Borrower shall not make a request for more than six (6) Advances during any calendar month, and no more than six (6) Advances shall occur, during any calendar month. No more than two (2) Advances shall occur, during any calendar week. (b) Borrower may, upon at least 10 Business Days’ notice to the Funding Agent (who shall promptly provide such notice to the Co-Agents), terminate in whole or reduce in part, ratably among the Committed Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments, the unused portion of the Aggregate Commitment; provided that each partial reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $20,000,000 (or a larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof) and shall reduce the Commitments of the Committed Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments.
Issuing Bank’s Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligations In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against such documents, the Issuing Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be responsible for, and the Borrower’s obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall not be affected in any manner by, (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, facsimile, electronic mail, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or the Lenders. None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Bank’s or Administrative Agent’s rights or powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), shall not create against the Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender. In this connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit, and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (e), shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or Section 12.10., but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (e), the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any rights the Borrower may have with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit.
