Scheduled and Interim Redeterminations The Borrowing Base shall be redetermined semi-annually in accordance with this Section 2.14 (a “Scheduled Redetermination”), and, subject to Section 2.14(d), such redetermined Borrowing Base shall become effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuers and the Lenders on April 1st and October 1st of each year, commencing October 1, 2012. In addition, the Borrower may at any time (including prior to the first Scheduled Redetermination date of October 1, 2012), by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof not more than twice during any period of 12 consecutive calendar months, and the Administrative Agent, following the first Scheduled Redetermination date of October 1, 2012, may, at the direction of the Required Lenders, by notifying the Borrower thereof, one time during any period of 12 consecutive calendar months, in each case elect to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined between Scheduled Redeterminations (an “Interim Redetermination”) in accordance with this Section 2.14; provided that the Required Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent to initiate an Interim Redetermination prior to the first Scheduled Redetermination of October 1, 2012 in the event that the Hedging Condition is not satisfied (in which case, such Interim Redetermination shall not count against the first such Interim Redetermination otherwise permitted to be initiated pursuant to this Section 2.14(b) by the Administrative Agent). In addition to, and not including and/or limited by the annual Interim Redetermination allowed above, the Borrower may, by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof, at any time between Scheduled Redeterminations, request additional Interim Redeterminations of the Borrowing Base in the event it acquires Oil and Gas Properties with Proved Reserves which are to be Borrowing Base Properties having a PV-9 (calculated at the time of acquisition) in excess of 5% of the Borrowing Base in effect immediately prior to such acquisition.
Loan Modification Offers (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders to make one or more Permitted Amendments (as defined in paragraph (c) below) pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 30 Business Days after the date of such notice). Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Advances of the Lenders that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) without the consent of any Lender that is not an Accepting Lender. (b) The Borrower and each Accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Loan Modification Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the Advances of the Accepting Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Permitted Amendment shall become effective under this Section unless the Administrative Agent shall have received all legal opinions, board resolutions, officer’s certificates and other documentation requested by it consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Article 4.
Step Increases (a) The following is the method used to determine service credit, since the last date of hire, for purposes of positioning on the salary range: i) all continuous service shall be retained and transferred with the employee if she/he changes her/his status from full-time to part- time and vice versa. ii) a part-time employee who changes status to full-time will be given credit on the basis of fifteen hundred (1500) paid hours of part- time being equivalent to one (1) year of full-time service and vice versa. iii) in addition, an employee who is so transferred will be given credit for paid hours accumulated since the date of last advancement. (b) Annual increments for full-time employees shall be paid on their anniversary date. (c) Annual increments for part-time employees shall be paid on the completion of each fifteen hundred (1500) hours worked.
Scheduled and Interim Redetermination Procedure (i) Each Scheduled Redetermination and each Interim Redetermination shall be effectuated as follows: Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of (A) the Reserve Report and the certificate required to be delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, in the case of a Scheduled Redetermination, pursuant to clauses (a) and (c) of Section 5.13, and, in the case of an Interim Redetermination, pursuant to clauses (a) and (c) of Section 5.13, and (B) such other reports, data and supplemental information, including, without limitation, the information provided pursuant to clause (c) of Section 5.13, as may, from time to time, be reasonably requested by the Required Lenders (the Reserve Report, such certificate and such other reports, data and supplemental information being the “Engineering Reports”), the Administrative Agent shall evaluate the information contained in the Engineering Reports and shall propose a new Borrowing Base which shall be based upon such information from the Engineering Reports and such other information as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate in its sole discretion consistent with its lending criteria as it exists at such time. In no event shall the Proposed Borrowing Base exceed the Aggregate Maximum Loan Amount; (ii) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the Proposed Borrowing Base (the “Proposed Borrowing Base Notice”) after the Administrative Agent has received complete Engineering Reports from the Borrower and has had a reasonable opportunity to determine the Proposed Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 2.4(c)(i); and (iii) Until the Borrowing Base is redetermined in accordance with this Section 2.4, the then-existing Borrowing Base will remain in effect. Any Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect must be approved by all of the Lenders as provided in this Section 2.4(c)(iii); and any Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base then in effect must be approved or be deemed to have been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in this Section 2.4(c)(iii). Upon receipt of the Proposed Borrowing Base Notice, each Lender shall have fifteen (15) days to agree with the Proposed Borrowing Base or disagree with the Proposed Borrowing Base by proposing an alternate Borrowing Base. If, at the end of such fifteen (15) days (A) in the case of any Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base then in effect, any Lender has not communicated its approval or disapproval in writing to the Administrative Agent, such silence shall be deemed to be an approval of the Proposed Borrowing Base and (B) in the case of any Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect, any Lender has not communicated its approval or disapproval in writing to the Administrative Agent, such silence shall be deemed to be a disapproval of the Proposed Borrowing Base. If, at the end of such 15-day period, all of the Lenders, in the case of a Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect, or the Required Lenders, in the case of a Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base then in effect, have approved or, in the case of a decrease or reaffirmation, deemed to have approved, as aforesaid, then the Proposed Borrowing Base shall become the new Borrowing Base effective on the date specified in Section 2.4(d). If, however, at the end of such 15-day period, all of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, have not approved or, in the case of a decrease or reaffirmation, deemed to have approved, as aforesaid, then the Administrative Agent shall poll the Lenders to ascertain the highest Borrowing Base then acceptable to (x) in the case of a decrease or reaffirmation, a number of Lenders sufficient to constitute the Required Lenders and (y) in the case of an increase, all of the Lenders, and such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base effective on the date specified in Section 2.4(d).
Incremental Facilities The Borrower shall have the right to request increases in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments or the making of incremental term loans hereunder (“Incremental Term Loans”, and any such increase or Incremental Term Loans, an “Incremental Facility”) by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be irrevocable once given; provided, however, that after giving effect to any such Incremental Facility the aggregate amount of the sum of the Revolving Commitments plus the principal amount of Term Loans (including any such Incremental Term Loans) shall not exceed $650,000,000. The allocation of any increase between the Revolving Commitments and Incremental Term Loans shall be made at the time Borrower requests such increase. Each such Incremental Facility must be an aggregate minimum amount of $25,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. The Arrangers, in consultation with the Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of such Incremental Facilities, including decisions as to the selection of the existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such increase or Incremental Term Loans and the allocations thereof among such existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders. No Lender shall be obligated in any way whatsoever to increase its Revolving Commitment or provide a new Revolving Commitment or Incremental Term Loans, and any new Lender becoming a party to this Agreement in connection with any such requested increase must be an Eligible Assignee and, if such new Lender is assuming Revolving Commitments, must be subject to the consent of each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender. If a new Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, or if any existing Lender is increasing its Revolving Commitment, such Lender shall on the date it becomes a Lender hereunder (or in the case of an existing Lender, increases its Revolving Commitment) (and as a condition thereto) purchase from the other Lenders its Revolving Commitment Percentage (determined with respect to the Lenders’ respective Revolving Commitments and after giving effect to the increase of Revolving Commitments) of any outstanding Revolving Loans, by making available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such other Lenders, in same day funds, an amount equal to (A) the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans to be purchased by such Lender, plus (B) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the other Revolving Lenders under Section 2.4.(j) that have not been repaid, plus (C) interest accrued and unpaid to and as of such date on such portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall pay to the Revolving Lenders amounts payable, if any, to such Revolving Lenders under Section 5.4. as a result of the prepayment of any such Revolving Loans. Revolving Loans made pursuant to any increased Revolving Commitment and the Incremental Term Loans (i) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Revolving Loans and Term Loans, (ii) shall be equally and ratably secured with the Revolving Loans and Term Loans, (iii) in the case of Incremental Term Loans, (x) shall not mature earlier than the Term Loans and (y) shall have no amortization or otherwise be permitted to be prepaid prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, and (iv) shall be treated substantially the same (and in any event not more favorably than) the Revolving Loans. Effecting any Incremental Facility under this Section is subject to the following conditions precedent: (x) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence on the effective date of such increase, (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party shall be true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on the effective date of such increase except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date), and (z) the Administrative Agent shall have received each of the following, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (i) if not previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of (A) all corporate, partnership, member or other necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize such Incremental Facility and (B) all corporate, partnership, member or other necessary action taken by each Guarantor authorizing the guaranty of such Incremental Facility; (ii) a supplement to this Agreement executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any Lender providing such Incremental Facility, which supplement may include such amendments to this agreement as the Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary or appropriate to implement such Incremental Facility contemplated by this Section 2.17., together with the consent of the Guarantors thereto; (iii) an opinion of counsel to the Borrower and the Guarantors, and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders covering such matters as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent; and (iv) new or replacement Revolving Notes or Term Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any Lenders participating in such Incremental Facility, as applicable, in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment or aggregate Term Loans at the time of the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental Facility. In connection with any Incremental Facility, any Lender becoming a party hereto shall (1) execute such documents and agreements as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (2) in the case of any Lender that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America, provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and Anti-Money Laundering Laws, including without limitation, the Patriot Act.
