  • Standby Letters of Credit The Administrative Agent, under the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, on behalf of itself and each other Bank in the same proportions as each Bank's Revolving Loan Commitment bears to the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, shall provide Standby Letters of Credit to the Borrowers, from time to time prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date, as requested by the Borrowers, provided that (i) the aggregate amount of Standby Letters of Credit outstanding at any one time shall not exceed $3,000,000 or such lesser amount, if any, as will, when added to the amount of the Revolving Loans then outstanding, aggregate more than the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (or such lesser amount as the Borrowers are entitled to borrow hereunder at such time by reason of the limitation of the Borrowing Base or otherwise); (ii) no Standby Letter of Credit shall be for a term longer than one year; and (iii) no Standby Letters of Credit shall be required to be issued when any Event of Default or Potential Default exists. The Borrowers shall request a Standby Letter of Credit by delivering a completed letter of credit application to the Administrative Agent on such form as may be specified by the Administrative Agent not less than three Business Days prior to the date specified by the Borrowers as the date the Standby Letter of Credit is to be issued. The standard form of the Administrative Agent's letter of credit application as currently in effect shall be used. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks promptly after the issuance of any Standby Letter of Credit and will provide the Banks copies of the periodic Borrowing Base Certificates showing the current balance of outstanding Standby Letters of Credit, as delivered by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent. Standby Letters of Credit fees will be equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Loans on an annual basis, calculated on the basis of the days actually elapsed in a year of 360 days (paid to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Banks) plus a Fronting Fee of 0.125% per year to be paid to the Fronting Bank for its own account. Such Fees will be calculated based on the aggregate stated amount for each Letter of Credit, and will be due quarterly in arrears, commencing on the last Business Day of the calendar quarter in which the Standby Letter of Credit is issued. If any obligation of the Borrowers to pay money in connection with any Standby Letter of Credit is not met when requested by the Administrative Agent as permitted by the applicable letter of credit application and the reimbursement agreement contained therein, the amount due shall be funded automatically by a Revolving Loan which Loan shall be made without regard to any minimum borrowing requirement, condition precedent herein, or Event of Default hereunder which would otherwise entitle any Bank or the Banks not to provide such Revolving Loan, and each Bank shall make its proportionate share of such Revolving Loan. Any obligation of the Borrowers to pay money in connection with any Standby Letter of Credit or the application therefor shall be deemed secured as if made as a Loan hereunder. In the event the Borrowers shall terminate the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment as provided in Section and shall pay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans in full and with interest or the Revolving Loan Termination Date shall occur at a time when one or more Standby Letters of Credit remain outstanding, then the Borrowers shall furnish to the Administrative Agent within two Business Days such amount of cash, to be held as cash collateral and invested in certificates of deposit of the Administrative Agent with interest payable to the Borrowers, as will pay the maximum amount which may be drawn by beneficiaries of Standby Letters of Credit outstanding at the date of such termination or the Revolving Loan Termination Date, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, effective upon any increase or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments pursuant to the terms hereunder, each Lender’s participation in any Facility LC outstanding on such date shall be adjusted to reflect its Pro Rata Share after giving effect to such increase or reduction, as the case may be. (c) Subject to Section 2.18(a), the Borrower shall give the applicable LC Issuer notice prior to 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the LC Issuer in any given case) prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC, specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC. The issuance or Modification by any LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article 4 (the satisfaction of which the LC Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to such LC Issuer, acting reasonably, and that the Borrower shall have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as such LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility LC Application”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control. (d) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, with respect to each Facility LC issued hereunder, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Advances in effect from time to time on the average daily undrawn stated amount under such standby Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date, on the Facility LC Maturity Date and thereafter on demand (each such fee described in this sentence an “LC Fee”), provided, however, that any LC Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Facility LC as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.22(c) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Pro Rata Shares allocable to such Facility LC, with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the LC Issuer for its own account; provided further, that so long as no Unmatured Default or Default exists, notwithstanding the Pricing Level otherwise applicable to the Advances, Facility LCs and Facility Fee, the Borrower shall be required to pay an LC Fee on any portion of any Facility LC that the Borrower has Cash Collateralized at a rate equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans corresponding to Pricing Level I. The Borrower shall also pay to the applicable LC Issuer for its own account (x) a fronting fee at the per annum rate set forth in the Senior Lead Arrangers Fee Letter or as separately agreed with such LC Issuer on the average daily undrawn stated amount under each Facility LC issued hereunder, such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date, and (y) documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance or Modification of and draws under Facility LCs in accordance with the applicable LC Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges as in effect from time to time. (e) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand for payment under such Facility LC, the applicable LC Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid by such LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment date (the “LC Payment Date”). The responsibility of such LC Issuer to the Borrower and each Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Facility LC. Each LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to letters of credit in which no participations are granted. Each Lender’s obligation to reimburse each LC Issuer for its Pro Rata Share of the amount drawn under each Facility LCs to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18(f) below shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the LC Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable LC Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to this foregoing provisions of this Section 2.18(e), such LC Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the LC Payment Date to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the LC Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three (3) days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances. (f) The Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse any LC Issuer on the applicable LC Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by such LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility LC, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that, subject to Section 2.18(h), the Borrower shall not be precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by the Borrower to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC issued by it complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (ii) such LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. All such amounts paid by such LC Issuer and remaining unpaid by the Borrower shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls on or before the applicable LC Payment Date and (y) the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment Date. The applicable LC Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from the Borrower for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued by such LC Issuer, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to such LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.18(e). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance with Section 2.7 and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 4), the Borrower may request an Advance hereunder for the purpose of satisfying any Reimbursement Obligation. (g) The Borrower’s obligations to reimburse each LC Issuer for each drawing under each Facility LC shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Facility LC, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document; (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Facility LC (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the LC Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Facility LC or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Facility LC proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iv) any payment by the applicable LC Issuer under such Facility LC against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Facility LC; or any payment made by the LC Issuer under such Facility LC to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; (v) any dispute between or among the Borrower, any of its Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred; (vi) any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower or of any of its Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee; or (vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower. No LC Issuer shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Facility LC. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by any LC Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not put any LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to the Borrower.
