Service Extension Discounts Sample Clauses

Service Extension Discounts. Many of Mass. Electric's customers served under Rate G-3 have exercised their option to sign a service extension discount agreement under which the customer must provide five years prior notice before purchasing electricity from an alternative supplier or installing non-emergency generation for its own use, but is allowed to buy down its five year notice provision to three years by repaying 120 percent of all Service Extension Discounts received from Mass. Electric over the prior two years. Under this Settlement, Mass. Electric will waive the five year notice provision without requiring such repayment insofar as it would limit the customer's ability to purchase electricity from an alternative supplier under the terms of Mass. Electric's retail delivery tariffs included in Attachment 2.(1) As with the Service Extension Agreements, nothing in this Settlement shall require Mass. Electric to waive the advance written notice required before the retail customer may install on- site non-emergency generation for its own use or bypass Mass. Electric's distribution system. Mass. Electric shall eliminate the Service Extension Discount as of the Retail Access Date. Under Section 7.3 of its W-95 wholesale rate settlement (in FERC Docket No. ER95-267-000), NEP agreed to reimburse Mass. Electric for the discounts provided to customers under Service Extension Discount agreements. NEP's tariff provision, however, requires that payments for the buy down of the notice period be paid to NEP (Tariff 1, Section III-D, p.2, Par. 4) and requires Mass. Electric to obtain NEP's consent prior to modifying the Service Extension Discount agreements. (Id, Par.6). In the wholesale rate settlement included as Attachment 3 to this __________ 1 To the extent necessary to allow customers to purchase from alternative suppliers under the retail delivery tariffs, Mass. Electric will also waive condition 3 in the availability provisions of its G-5 Rate Incentive Provision that requires customers participating on that rate not to have provided notice under the Service Extension Discount Agreement. Mass. Electric also has a special contract with Raytheon that was approved by the Department on January 30, 1996. Under Section V.A. of that contract, the Parties agreed that the agreement was to remain in effect through December 31, 1998, even if retail access were to occur earlier than that date.

In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, Lead Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under the relevant Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and (y) have the same terms as the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans are to be converted, except that: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) the Effective Yield with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the Effective Yield for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the applicable Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); (iv) Extended Term Loans may have mandatory prepayment terms which provide for the application of proceeds from mandatory prepayment events to be made first to prepay the Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans have been converted before applying any such proceeds to prepay such Extended Term Loans; (v) Extended Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and terms which allow Term Loans under the relevant Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans have been converted to be optionally prepaid prior to the prepayment of such Extended Term Loans) as may be agreed by Lead Borrower and the Lenders thereof and (vi) such Extended Term Loans may have other terms (other than those described in the preceding clause (i) through (v)) that differ from those of the Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, taken as a whole, that are not materially more favorable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans than the provisions applicable to the Existing Term Loan Tranche or as are otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any Extended Term Loans converted pursuant to any Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, an “Extension Series”) of Extended Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that, subject to the requirements set forth above, any Extended Term Loans converted from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Tranche of Term Loans.

The proceeds of the 2014-1 Additional Term Loans made on the Eleventh Amendment Effective Date shall be placed into escrow with the Eleventh Amendment Escrow Agent on the terms set forth in the Eleventh Amendment Escrow Agreement.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in Section 2.07 with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Term Loans thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Term Loans required pursuant to Section 2.07), (iii) modify the prepayments set forth in Section 2.05 to reflect the existence of the Extended Term Loans and the application of prepayments with respect thereto, (iv) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of the second paragraph of Section 10.01 (without the consent of the Required Lenders called for therein) and (v) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.16, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment.

  • Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods Borrower shall compensate each Lender, as promptly as practicable after written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts and shall be conclusive absent manifest error), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid or calculated to be due and payable by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurodollar Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or deployment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrower.

If on or before the date which is 10 days prior to the Stated Expiration Date, (A) the Liquidity Facility shall not have been replaced in accordance with Section 3.10(d) hereof or (B) the Liquidity Facility Provider fails irrevocably and unconditionally to advise the Administrative Agent that such Stated Expiration Date then in effect shall be so extended (whether or not the Administrative Agent has in fact requested an extension), the Administrative Agent shall immediately, in accordance with the terms of the Liquidity Facility (a “Non-Extended Facility”), request a drawing under such Liquidity Facility (such drawing, a “Non-Extension Drawing”) for the Available Amount thereunder. Amounts drawn pursuant to a Non-Extension Drawing shall be deposited into the Liquidity Facility Reserve Account.

  • Extended Term Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term for two (2) consecutive five (5) year periods (the "FIRST EXTENDED TERM" and "SECOND EXTENDED TERM", respectively) on all the terms and conditions contained in this Lease including, without limitation, continuation of the adjustment of the Base Rent on an annual basis as provided in Section 3.3 below (provided only that upon commencement of the First Extended Term the only remaining option to extend the Term shall be the Second Extended Term and upon exercise of the option with respect to the Second Extended Term, no further right to extend the Term shall exist). Tenant shall deliver, if at all, written notice of its exercise of the option ("OPTION NOTICE") to Landlord at least six (6) months but not more than one (1) year before the expiration of the Term or First Extended Term, as the case may be. In the event Tenant fails to deliver the applicable Option Notice within the time allowed, Landlord shall deliver written notice to Tenant of Tenant's failure to deliver the Option Notice, and Tenant shall then have thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice within which to deliver the Option Notice, if at all, to Landlord. In the event (and only in the event) that, Tenant fails to deliver an Option Notice to Landlord within such thirty (30) days, Tenant shall be considered to have elected not to extend the Term of this Lease and thereafter, Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term of this Lease. References in this Lease to the "Term" shall include the initial Term of fifteen (15) years and shall, in addition, include the First Extended Term and the Second Extended Term, if applicable.

  • Extension of Revolving Credit Termination Date Borrower may, by notice to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) given at least thirty (30) days and not more than ninety (90) days prior to the then Revolving Credit Termination Date (the “Existing Commitment Termination Date”), request that Lenders extend the Existing Commitment Termination Date for one additional one-year period. Upon the Borrower’s timely delivery of such notice to Administrative Agent and provided, that (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (both on the date the notice is delivered and on the then Existing Commitment Revolving Credit Termination Date), (ii) the Borrower and the Subsidiaries are in compliance with all covenants contained in Section 8 hereof, (iii) all representations and warranties contained in Section 6 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on the date the notice is delivered and on the then Existing Commitment Termination Date except for representations and warranties that relate to a prior date, which shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) as of the applicable date on which they were made and (iv) the Borrower has paid in immediately available funds the Extension Fee on or prior to the first day of any requested extension period, then the Revolving Credit Termination Date shall be extended to the first anniversary of the then Existing Commitment Termination Date. Should the Revolving Credit Termination Date be extended, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will apply during any such extension period, and from and after the date of such extension, the term Revolving Credit Termination Date shall mean the last day of the extended term.

  • Extension; Waiver At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective Board of Directors, may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party.

  • Extension Terms Sublessee shall have two (2) successive options (each, an “Extension Option”) to extend the Term for periods of five (5) years each (each, an “Extension Term”), the first of which Extension Term shall commence on the termination date of the Base Term, and the second of which shall commence on the day immediately following the expiration of the first Extension Term, said Extended Terms to be on the same terms and conditions as the Lease except that (i) the Lease shall contain no further options to extend after the expiration of the second Extension Term, and (ii) the Fixed Rental Rate applicable to each Extension Term shall be computed as set forth below and not be subject to annual adjustment as provided in the reference data. Sublessee shall provide written notice (“Sublessee’s Extension Notice”) to Sublessor of its determination to exercise each such Extension Option no later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the then current Term (“Notice Date”). The Fixed Rental Rate for each Extension Term shall be 90% of the fair market rental rate (the “Extension Rental Rate”) for the Leased Premises, which is defined as the then prevailing fair market net rental rate for office and warehouse space at comparable property in the Portsmouth and Dover, NH markets assuming no adjustment thereto during the applicable Extension Term and no free rent period or tenant improvement allowances, excluding the value of any Alterations or other improvements made to the Premises that were paid for by Sublessee and taking into consideration factors such as (i) the percentage of the Building occupied by Sublessee, (ii) Sublessee’s obligation to pay Expenses as provided herein, and (iii) any other relevant factors either Sublessee or Sublessor wishes to bring to the attention of the other or to a real estate professional called upon to assist in the determination of the fair market rental rate. The Extension Rental Rate shall be determined as follows: in the event Sublessee timely exercises an Extension Option in accordance herewith, within ten (10) business days after Sublessor receives Sublessee’s Extension Notice, Sublessor shall notify Sublessee in writing of Sublessor’s good faith determination of the fair market rental rate (“Sublessor’s Extension Term Rental Notice”), which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail Sublessor’s determination of such fair market rental rate and shall provide separately, if Sublessor wishes, rent concessions and/or tenant improvement allowances that Sublessor may wish to offer, and the amount by which Sublessor’s estimate of the fair market rental rate would increase as a result of the granting of such concessions (the “Concession Rate Amount”) and shall set forth Sublessor’s determination of the expiration date of the Negotiation Period. Sublessee shall have ten (10) business days from the date of Sublessor’s Extension Term Rental Notice to either accept or dispute Sublessor’s determination of the fair market rental rate. In the event that Sublessee disputes Sublessor’s determination of the fair market rental rate, Sublessee shall so notify Sublessor and advise Sublessor of Sublessee’s determination of the fair market rental rate (which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail Sublessee’s determination of the fair market rental rate as well as concessions and improvement allowances it may be seeking, including an alternate Concession Rate Amount). If Sublessor and Sublessee cannot agree upon the Extension Rental Rate within sixty (60) days of the date of Sublessor’s Extension Term Rental Notice (the “Negotiation Period”), Sublessee, at Sublessee’s option, shall give Sublessor, within three (3) business days of the expiration of the Negotiation Period, one of the following written notices: (a) a written notice revoking Sublessee’s exercise of such Extension Option, or (b) a written notice stating that Sublessee wishes to submit the matter to arbitration as set forth below. If Sublessee does not provide either notice, the exercise of such Extension Option shall be deemed revoked. If option (b) is chosen, Sublessor and Sublessee shall simultaneously exchange, on the fifth (5th) business day following the expiration of the Negotiation Period, statements setting forth each such party’s final determination of the fair market rental rate (each, a “Statement of Rental Rate”), including any Concession Rate Amount (separately stated), together with such backup information as to such party’s determination of the fair market rental rate and/or any Concession Rate Amount as such party wishes to include (and, in the case of Sublessor, the fair market rental rate in such Statement of Rental Rate shall not be greater than that set forth in Sublessor’s Extension Term Rental Notice and, in the case of Sublessee, the fair market rental rate in such Statement of Rental Rate shall not be less than that set forth in Sublessee’s initial determination of the fair market rental rate provided in response to Sublessor’s Extension Term Rental Notice). If the higher of the two (2) determinations of the fair market rental rate is equal to or less than 110% of the lesser determination, then the Extension Rental Rate shall be the average of the two determinations. Otherwise, Sublessor and Sublessee shall mutually select a real estate professional with at least ten (10) years’ continuous experience in the business of appraising or marketing multi-tenant mix-use commercial office, warehouse and industrial buildings in the greater Portsmouth area (the “Valuation Expert”) to resolve the dispute as to the Extension Rental Rate. If Sublessor and Sublessee cannot agree upon the designation of the Valuation Expert within ten (10) business days of the exchange of the Statements of Rental Rate, the parties shall apply to the New Hampshire Chapter of the Appraisal Institute (the “NHAI”) for appointment of a qualified Valuation Expert as follows: (i) the NHAI shall provide Sublessor and Sublessee with a list of five qualified Valuation Experts; (ii) within five (5) business days after such list is produced, each of Sublessor and Sublessee shall notify NHAI and the other party of those proposed experts that are acceptable (and, if desired, ranking the same), each being entitled to strike up to two candidates; (iii) if one party fails to send back its selections, then NHAI shall appoint the number one ranked expert proposed by the other party; if both parties fail to send back their selections, NHAI shall appoint a Valuation Expert in its discretion; and if both parties timely return their selections, then the Valuation Expert will be proposed expert that is the highest ranked (on a combined basis) by the parties as determined by NHAI. The Valuation Expert appointed by NHAI shall be final and binding upon Sublessor and Sublessee. Within five (5) business days of the selection of the Valuation Expert, Sublessor and Sublessee shall each submit to the Valuation Expert a copy of its Statement of Rental Rate, together with any supporting material. The Valuation Expert shall not perform his own valuation, but rather, shall, within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of such submissions, select as the Extension Rental Rate the submission which the Valuation Expert concludes most closely and accurately reflects the fair market rental rate for the Leased Premises and the fair market rental rate set forth in that submission shall be the Extension Rental Rate for such Extension Term. The Valuation Expert shall give notice of his or her determination to Sublessor and Sublessee, and such decision shall be final and conclusively binding upon Sublessor and Sublessee. In addition, Sublessee shall be entitled to elect to take advantage of the concessions last offered by Sublessor and include the Concession Rate Amount in the Extension Rental Rate by notice to Sublessor given within thirty (30) days of the final determination by the Valuation Expert. Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of any real estate professional such party retains and such party’s counsel, if any, in connection with any proceeding under this paragraph, and the party whose determination of the fair market rental rate was determined by the Valuation Expert not to most accurately and closely reflect the fair market rental rate of the Leased Premises shall pay the fees and expenses of the Valuation Expert. Sublessor and Sublessee shall execute an amendment to this Lease within thirty (30) days after the determination of the Extension Rental Rate (in accordance with the procedure set forth above) for the applicable Extension Term, which amendment shall set forth the Extension Term, the Extension Rental Rate, and all other terms and conditions for such Extension Term; provided, however, any failure to execute such amendment shall not affect such Extension Term or any terms or conditions for Sublessee’s leasing of the Premises for the applicable Extension Term.
