Letter of Credit Request See §2.10(a).
Letter of Credit Requests (a) Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for its account or amended, it shall give the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer a Letter of Credit Request by no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least two (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer) Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or amendment. Each notice shall be executed by the Borrower and shall be in the form of Exhibit G to the Original Credit Agreement (each a “Letter of Credit Request”).
(b) In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Request shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day)); (B) the Stated Amount thereof in the relevant currency; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder and (G) such other matters as the Letter of Credit Issuer may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Request shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the Letter of Credit Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require.
(c) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Request, the Letter of Credit Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Request from the Borrower and, if not, the Letter of Credit Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Letter of Credit Issuer has received written notice from any Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Credit Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Sections 6 and 7 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Letter of Credit Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.
(d) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Request, the Letter of Credit Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Letter of Credit Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Letter of Credit Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Letter of Credit Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the L/C Maturity Date; provided, however, that the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Letter of Credit Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (b) of Section 3.1 or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Sections 6 and 7 are not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Letter of Credit Issuer not to permit such extension.
(e) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit (including any Existing Secured Letter of Credit) to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Letter of Credit Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. On the last Business Day of each month, each Letter of Credit Issuer shall provide the Administrative Agent a list of all Letters of Credit (including any Existing Secured Letter of Credit) issued by it that are outstanding at such time.
(f) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section 3.1(b).
Notice of Borrowing; Letter of Credit Request (a) Prior to the making of each Term Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Notice of Borrowing (whether in writing or by telephone) meeting the requirements of Section 2.3.
(b) Prior to the making of each Revolving Credit Loan (other than any Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to Section 3.4(a)) and each Swingline Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Notice of Borrowing (whether in writing or by telephone) meeting the requirements of Section 2.3.
(c) Prior to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have received a Letter of Credit Request meeting the requirements of Section 3.2(a). The acceptance of the benefits of each Credit Event shall constitute a representation and warranty by each Credit Party to each of the Lenders that all the applicable conditions specified in Section 7 above have been satisfied as of that time.

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.
Letter of Credit Application If a Letter of Credit is requested to be issued on the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall have received a properly completed letter of credit application (whether standalone or pursuant to a master agreement, as applicable).
Letter of Credit Applications Each Letter of Credit Application shall be completed to the satisfaction of the Agent. In the event that any provision of any Letter of Credit Application shall be inconsistent with any provision of this Credit Agreement, then the provisions of this Credit Agreement shall, to the extent of any such inconsistency, govern.
Standby An employee who is required to remain available for duty on standby, outside the normal working hours for that particular employee, shall receive standby pay in the amount of $2.00 per hour for all hours on standby. Standby pay shall, however, cease where an employee is called into work under Article 15.06 above and works during the period of standby."
Letter of Credit The Borrower further agrees with the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower's Reimbursement Obligations under Section 4.2 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any financing institution or other party to which any Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee, PROVIDED that the Borrower shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower's Reimbursement Obligations shall not include, amounts or liabilities arising solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender in determining whether a request presented under any Letter of Credit complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not 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 Letter of Credit. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Lender under or in connection with each Letter of Credit and the related drafts and documents, if done in good faith, shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not result in any liability on the part of the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the Borrower.
Issuance of Letter of Credit Upon satisfaction or waiver (in accordance with subsection 10.6) of the conditions set forth in subsection 4.3, the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of Credit in accordance with the Issuing Lender's standard operating procedures.
