Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowing The Borrower may borrow under the Revolving Commitments during the Revolving Commitment Period on any Business Day; provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date or (ii) in the case of ABR Loans, prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, one Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (x) the amount and Type of Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (y) the requested Borrowing Date and (z) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, the respective amounts of each such Type of Loan and the respective lengths of the initial Interest Period therefor. The aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans made on the Closing Date shall not exceed $25,000,000 (which amount, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the face amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit). Each borrowing by the Borrower under the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of ABR Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if the then aggregate Available Revolving Commitments are less than $1,000,000, such lesser amount) and (y) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; provided that the Swingline Lender may request, on behalf of the Borrower, borrowings under the Revolving Commitments that are ABR Loans in other amounts pursuant to Section 2.7(a). Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof. Each Revolving Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower at the Funding Office prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting the account designated in writing by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Revolving Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent. If no election as to the Type of a Revolving Loan is specified, then the requested Loan shall be an ABR Loan. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
Procedure for Revolving Borrowings The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Revolving Borrowing, substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.3 attached hereto (a “Notice of Revolving Borrowing”), (x) prior to 1:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of each Base Rate Borrowing and (y) prior to 1:00 p.m. three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of each Eurodollar Borrowing. Each Notice of Revolving Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing, (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the Type of such Revolving Loan comprising such Borrowing and (iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the duration of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to the provisions of the definition of Interest Period). Each Revolving Borrowing shall consist entirely of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as the Borrower may request. The aggregate principal amount of each Eurodollar Borrowing shall not be less than $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $250,000, and the aggregate principal amount of each Base Rate Borrowing shall not be less than $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $100,000; provided that Base Rate Loans made pursuant to Section 2.4 or Section 2.22(d) may be made in lesser amounts as provided therein. At no time shall the total number of Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding at any time exceed eight (8). Promptly following the receipt of a Notice of Revolving Borrowing in accordance herewith, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Loan to be made as part of the requested Revolving Borrowing.
Procedure for Borrowing (a) The Borrower may request a borrowing to be made on any Business Day during the Commitment Period (each such date a “Funding Date”) by delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Lender a Notice of Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit B (a “Notice of Borrowing”), appropriately completed, which Notice of Borrowing must be received no later than 2:00 p.m. (Washington, D.C. time) five (5) Business Days’ prior to the requested Funding Date, which notice, if not withdrawn prior to the date which is two (2) Business Days’ prior to such Funding Date, shall thereafter become irrevocable. Each Loan shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 (or, if the Available Amount is less than such amount, such lesser amount) or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.
(b) Upon the Borrower’s request for a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03(a), and assuming all conditions precedent to the making of such Loan have been satisfied (or waived by the Lender in accordance with Section 10.01), not later than 2:00 p.m. (Washington, D.C. time) on the requested Funding Date, the Lender shall make the proceeds of such Loan available to the Borrower in immediately available funds, via wire transfer (pursuant to the wire transfer instructions set forth in Section 2.03(c)).
(c) The Borrower hereby directs the Lender to send the proceeds of all Loans (i) by wire transfer to the account specified on Schedule A or (ii) to such other account as shall be designated by the Borrower in a Notice of Borrowing.
(d) The Borrower agrees to compensate the Lender for the losses (as calculated pursuant to the next succeeding sentence) that the Lender incurs as a consequence of a failure of the Borrower to make a borrowing of Loans of the requested amount after the Borrower has delivered a Notice of Borrowing which has become irrevocable in accordance with Section 2.03(a). Such losses shall be calculated as follows: an amount equal to the product of (i) the sum of (A) the weighted average cost (as determined by the Lender in its sole discretion) of all nominal marketable Indebtedness issued by UST over the preceding thirty (30) days, plus (B) 1.00%, multiplied by (ii) the quotient of (A) the number of days constituting the period from the date such Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Borrower has become irrevocable to the date the Borrower defaults in making a borrowing pursuant to such Notice of Borrowing, divided by (B) three hundred sixty (360) days, multiplied by (iii) the amount not so borrowed. A certificate as to the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) submitted to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The covenant in this Section 2.03(d) shall survive the termination of this Loan Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
