(b) Upon delivery to the Borrower of an LC Payment Notice on or before 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately succeeding the date of such payment by an Issuing Bank, unless the Borrower provides written notice to such Issuing Bank and the Working Capital Facility Agent electing to have the reimbursement obligation converted into an LC Loan in accordance with Sections 3.03(c) and (f), the Borrower shall, on or before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such Business Day, reimburse such Issuing Bank for such payment (an “LC Reimbursement Payment”) by paying to the Working Capital Facility Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, an amount equal to the payment made by such Issuing Bank plus interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus 2.00%; provided that, if an Issuing Bank delivers an LC Payment Notice to the Borrower after 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately succeeding the date of payment by such Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall make the LC Reimbursement Payment on or before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day. An Issuing Bank’s failure to provide an LC Payment Notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank for any payment it makes under any Letter of Credit. In the case of any Non-Fronted Letters of Credit issued with respect to a specific Non-Fronted LC Amount, the Borrower may not elect to make an LC Reimbursement Payment and/or convert a reimbursement obligation into a LC Loan for some but not all the Issuing Banks providing Non-Fronted Letters of Credit with respect to such Non-Fronted LC Amount. (c) If the Borrower fails to make the LC Reimbursement Payment as required under Section 3.03(b) (Reimbursement to Issuing Banks) or provides written notice to such Issuing Bank and the Working Capital Facility Agent electing to have the reimbursement obligation converted into an LC Loan, such reimbursement obligation shall automatically convert to an LC Loan. If such LC Loan relates to a Fronted Letter of Credit, the Working Capital Facility Agent shall promptly notify each of the Working Capital Lenders of the amount of its share of the payment made under such Fronted Letter of Credit, which shall be such Working Capital Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such amount paid by such Issuing Bank (the “Working Capital Lender Payment Notice”). Subject to Section 3.02(f) (Letters of Credit), each Working Capital Lender hereby severally agrees to pay the amount specified in the Working Capital Lender Payment Notice in immediately available funds to the Working Capital Facility Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank with respect to a Fronted Letter of Credit plus interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from the date of such payment by such Issuing Bank to the date of payment to such Issuing Bank by such Working Capital Lender. Each Working Capital Lender shall make such payment by not later than 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date it received the Working Capital Lender Payment Notice (if such notice is received at or prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time) and before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day following such receipt (if such notice is received after 1:00 p.m., New York City time). In the case of Fronted Letters of Credit, each Working Capital Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless such Issuing Bank from and against any and all losses, liabilities (including liabilities for penalties), actions, suits, judgments, demands, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) resulting from any failure on the part of such Working Capital Lender to provide, or from any delay in providing, the Working Capital Facility Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank with its Commitment Percentage of the amount paid under the Fronted Letter of Credit but no such Working Capital Lender shall be so liable for any such failure on the part of or caused by any other Working Capital Lender or the willful misconduct or gross negligence, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable order, of the Working Capital Facility Agent. Each Working Capital Lender’s obligation to make each such payment to the Working Capital Facility Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank in the case of payments made in respect of a Fronted Letter of Credit shall be several and not joint and shall not be affected by (A) the occurrence or continuance of any Working Capital Facility Event of Default, (B) the failure of any other Working Capital Lender to make any payment under this Section 3.03 (Reimbursement to Issuing Banks), or (C) the date of the drawing under the applicable Letter of Credit issued by the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that, such drawing occurs prior to the earlier of (i) the Working Capital Final Maturity Date or (ii) the termination date of the applicable Fronted Letter of Credit. Each Working Capital Lender further agrees that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. (d) The Working Capital Facility Agent shall pay to the applicable Issuing Bank in immediately available funds the amounts paid in respect of a Fronted Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.03(b) (Reimbursement to Issuing Banks) and Section 3.03(c) (Reimbursement to Issuing Banks) before the close of business on the day such payment is received; provided that, any amount received by the Working Capital Facility Agent that is due and owing to such Issuing Bank and remains unpaid to such Issuing Bank on the date of receipt shall be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with interest payable at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. (e) For so long as any Working Capital Lender is a Defaulting Lender under clause (a) of the definition thereof, each Issuing Bank in respect of a Fronted Letter of Credit shall be deemed, for purposes of Section 4.17 (Sharing of Payments) and Article IX (Default and EnforcementDEFAULT AND ENFORCEMENT), to be a Working Capital Lender hereunder in substitution of such Defaulting Lender and shall be Lender, owed a loan in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount due and payable by such Defaulting Lender to the Working Capital Facility Agent for the account of each Issuing Bank in respect of such Fronted Letter of Credit pursuant to subsection (c) above. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, the failure of any Working Capital Lender to make any required payment in response to any LC Payment Notice in respect of a Fronted Letter of Credit shall not increase the total aggregate amount payable by the Borrower with respect to the payment described in the related LC Payment Notice in respect of a Fronted Letter of Credit above the total aggregate amount that would have been payable by the Borrower at the applicable rate for Working Capital Loans if such Defaulting Lender would have funded its payments to such Working Capital Facility Agent in a timely manner in response to such LC Payment Notice in respect of a Fronted Letter of Credit. (f) Each payment made by a Working Capital Lender under subsection (c) above shall constitute an LC Loan deemed made by such Working Capital Lender to the Borrower on the date of such payment by an Issuing Bank under a Fronted Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. All such payments by the Working Capital Lenders in respect of any one such payment by such Issuing Bank shall constitute a single LC Loan hereunder. Each payment made by an Issuing Bank in respect of a Non-Fronted Letter of Credit that is not reimbursed by the Borrower or that is converted into an LC Loan by notice from the Borrower pursuant to clause (c) above shall constitute an LC Loan deemed made by such Issuing Bank in its capacity as a Working Capital Lender.
