(h) If the Loan is to be repaid or prepaid by the Borrower at any time prior to the Final Maturity Date, any such repayment or prepayment shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest to the date of such repayment or prepayment on the principal amount repaid or prepaid together with, if applicable pursuant to Section 2.03(i) below, the Early Termination Fee. The parties agree that any Early Termination Fee payable hereunder is intended to compensate the Lender for lost anticipated profits as a result of such early repayment or prepayment and shall not be considered as a penalty.

Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class and Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, subject to the occurrence of any condition(s) specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Subject to Section 2.15, each such prepayment shall be applied to the applicable Class of Loans being prepaid of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages for such Class.
Application of Prepayments of Loans to Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans Considering each Class of Loans being prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18(c).
Prepayment of Loans (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time up to 3:00 p.m., New York City time on any Business Day to prepay any Loan in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that interest will accrue on such amount being prepaid until the next business day if such payment is received after 3:00 p.m., New York City time.

Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.
