Annual Increments 12.1 Employees will proceed to the maximum of their salary range by annual increments, after 12 months’ continuous service at each increment point, unless there is an adverse report on the Employee's performance or conduct which recommends the non-payment of an annual increment. 12.2 The following process will apply where a report on an Employee’s performance or conduct recommends the non-payment of an annual increment: (a) The Employee will be shown the report prior to completing 12 months’ continuous service since their last incremental advance; (b) The Employee will be provided with an opportunity to comment in writing; (c) The Employee’s comments will be considered immediately by the Employer and a decision made as to whether to approve the payment of the increment or withhold payment for a specific period; and (d) Where the increment is withheld, the Employer before the expiry of the specified period will complete a further report and the above provisions will apply. 12.3 The non-payment of an increment will not change the normal anniversary date of any further increment payments. 12.4 For the purposes of this clause "continuous service", except where an increment is payable according to age, will not include any period: (a) exceeding 14 calendar days during which an Employee is absent on Leave Without Pay. In the case of leave without pay which exceeds 14 calendar days the entire period of such Leave Without Pay is excised in full; (b) which exceeds six (6) months in one continuous period during which an Employee is absent on workers' compensation. Provided that only that portion of such continuous absence which exceeds six (6) months will not count as "continuous service"; and (c) which exceeds three (3) months in one (1) continuous period during which an Employee is absent on Personal Leave without pay. Provided that only that portion of such continuous absence which exceeds three (3) months will not count as "continuous service".
Incremental Commitments (a) The Company may from time to time notify the Administrative Agent that certain of the Lenders designated by the Company and/or that additional lenders shall be added to this Agreement as Incremental Lenders with Commitments for the purpose of increasing the existing Commitments under the Facility (a “Commitment Increase”) by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Loan Activation Notice signed by such Lenders or such additional lenders and specifying (i) the respective Incremental Commitments of such Incremental Lenders and (ii) the applicable Commitment Increase Date; provided, that after giving effect to such Commitment Increase (including the incurrence of any Incremental Loans on the applicable Commitment Increase Date and use of proceeds thereof) (x) no Default or Event of Default shall be continuing and (y) the sum of the Total Commitments then in effect (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Incremental Commitments) shall not exceed $2 billion. (b) Each Incremental Lender that is a signatory to an Incremental Loan Activation Notice severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make revolving credit loans (each, an “Incremental Loan”) to the Company and/or the applicable Subsidiary Borrowers from time to time on or after the Commitment Increase Date specified in such Incremental Loan Activation Notice in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time up to but not exceeding the amount of the Incremental Commitment of such Incremental Lender specified in such Incremental Loan Activation Notice, subject to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Incremental Loan Activation Notice. Nothing in this Section 2.27 shall be construed to obligate any Lender to execute an Incremental Loan Activation Notice. (c) On any Commitment Increase Date, in the event any Loans under the Facility are then outstanding, (i) each relevant Incremental Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine are necessary in order to cause, after giving effect to such increased Commitments and the application of such amounts to prepay Loans under the Facility of other relevant Lenders, the Loans under the Facility to be held ratably by all Lenders with Commitments in the Facility in accordance with such Commitments after giving effect to such increase, (ii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have prepaid and reborrowed all outstanding Loans under this Agreement and (iii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the relevant Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.22 as a result of such prepayment.
Incremental Term Loan Commitments (a) Each Borrower shall have the right, in consultation and coordination with the Administrative Agent but without requiring the consent of any of the Lenders, to request, at any time and from time to time prior to the then latest Maturity Date, that one or more Lenders (and/or one or more other Persons which are Eligible Transferees and which will become Lenders) provide Incremental Term Loan Commitments to such Borrower and, subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and in the respective Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement, make Incremental Term Loans pursuant thereto; it being understood and agreed, however, that (i) no Lender shall be obligated to provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment as a result of any such request, (ii) each Tranche of Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be made available to a single Incremental Term Loan Borrower and shall be denominated in Dollars, (iii) the amount of each Tranche of Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $25,000,000, (iv) the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Loan Commitments provided pursuant to this Section 1.14 shall not exceed the Maximum Incremental Term Loan Commitment Amount, (v) the up-front fees and, if applicable, any unutilized commitment fees and/or other fees payable in respect of each Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall be separately agreed to by the respective Incremental Term Loan Borrower and each Incremental Term Loan Lender (and with all such fees to be disclosed in writing by the respective Incremental Term Loan Borrower to the Administrative Agent), (vi) each Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall have (I) (x) an Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date of no earlier than the then latest Maturity Date as then in effect, and (y) a Weighted Average Life to Maturity of no less than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity as then in effect for the Tranche of then outstanding Loans with the longest Weighted Average Life to Maturity and (II) an “interest rate” or “interest rates” applicable to such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans (which, for such purposes only, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent and deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount (amortized over the life of such Incremental Term Loans) payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans, but exclusive of any arrangement, structuring or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all Lenders providing such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans) that may (at such time or from time to time thereafter) exceed the “interest rates” applicable to the Term Loans; provided that, in the event that the “interest rate” excess applicable to such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall at such time be greater than 0.50%, the Applicable Margin for the Tranche B-2 Term Loans, the Tranche C-2 Term Loans and each other then existing Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall be increased by such amounts, and for such time periods, as are needed so that at no time shall the “interest rate” for the respective new Tranche of Incremental Term Loans (calculated as described above) exceed the relevant interest rates applicable to the then existing Tranches of Term Loans by more than 0.50%, (vii) the proceeds of all Incremental Term Loans shall be used only for the purposes permitted by Section 7.05(a), (viii) each Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall specifically designate, with the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Tranche of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments being provided thereunder (which Tranche may be a new Tranche (i.e., not the same as any existing Tranche of Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Term Loan Commitments or other Term Loans) or an increase in a previously established Tranche), (ix) all Incremental Term Loans (and all interest, fees and other amounts payable thereon) shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other applicable Credit Documents and shall be secured by the relevant Security Documents, and guaranteed under each relevant Guaranty, on a pari passu basis with all other Loans of the applicable Borrower secured by each such Security Agreement and guaranteed under each such Guaranty, and (x) each Lender (including any Eligible Transferee who will become a Lender) agreeing to provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment pursuant to an Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall, subject to the satisfaction of the relevant conditions set forth in this Agreement, make Incremental Term Loans under the Tranche specified in such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement as provided in Section 1.01(c) and such Loans shall thereafter be deemed to be Incremental Term Loans under such Tranche for all purposes of this Agreement and the other applicable Credit Documents. (b) At the time of the provision of Incremental Term Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 1.14, the applicable Incremental Term Loan Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each such Lender or other Eligible Transferee which agrees to provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment (each, an “Incremental Term Loan Lender”) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit I (appropriately completed), with the effectiveness of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment provided therein to occur on the date set forth in such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement, which date in any event shall be no earlier than the date on which all Incremental Term Loan Commitment Requirements are satisfied. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement.
Incremental Loans Any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments effected through the establishment of one or more new term loans or new revolving credit commitments, as applicable, made on an Incremental Facility Closing Date (other than a Loan Increase) shall be designated a separate Class of Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Term Commitments of any Class are effected (including through any Term Loan Increase), subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall make a Loan to the Borrower (an “Incremental Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Term Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Revolving Commitments of any Class are effected through the establishment of one or more new revolving credit commitments (including through any Revolving Commitment Increase), subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Revolving Lender of such Class shall make its Commitment available to the Borrower (when borrowed, an “Incremental Revolving Loan” and collectively with any Incremental Term Loan, an “Incremental Loan”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Revolving Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Revolving Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Revolving Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Revolving Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto.
Optional Increase in Commitments (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.06(c)(ii), upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may increase the Commitments then in effect by increasing the Commitment of a Lender or by causing a Person approved as a Lender by the Administrative Agent to become a Lender (each an “Additional Lender”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.06(c) (such additional Commitments, the “Additional Commitments”). (ii) If the Borrower elects to increase the total Commitments by increasing the Commitment of a Lender, the Borrower and such Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 (a “Commitment Increase Agreement”), and the Borrower shall deliver a new Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment after giving effect to such increase, and otherwise duly completed. (iii) If the Borrower elects to increase the total Commitments by causing an Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement, the Borrower and such approved Additional Lender(s) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 (an “Additional Lender Agreement”), such Additional Lender(s) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, and the Borrower shall, if requested by such Additional Lender, deliver a Note payable to such Additional Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment, and otherwise duly completed. (iv) Any increase in the Commitments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) such increase shall not be less than $50,000,000 unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, and no such increase shall be permitted if after giving effect thereto the aggregate value of all increases to the Commitments during the Availability Period would exceed $200,000,000; (B) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately prior to the effective date of such increase or after giving effect to such increase; (C) no Lender’s Commitment may be increased without the consent of such Lender; (D) on the effective date of such increase, no Eurodollar Borrowings shall be outstanding or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the effective date of such increase shall be the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings unless the Borrower pays any compensation required by Section 5.02 (unless otherwise waived by all Lenders); (E) the pro forma Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of the effective date of such increase (calculated in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) does not exceed the applicable maximum ratio for the last day of the fiscal quarter in which such increase occurs as set forth in Section 9.01(b) assuming that, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of such date, the Lenders have made Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the aggregate Commitments (including the amount of the increase in the Commitments on such date); and (F) any Additional Commitments shall be on terms and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the initial Commitments on the date hereof. (v) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(vi) from and after the effective date specified in the Commitment Increase Agreement or the Additional Lender Agreement (or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings, unless the Borrower has paid the compensation, if any, required by Section 5.02): (A) the amount of the Commitments shall be increased as set forth therein, and (B) in the case of an Additional Lender Agreement, any Additional Lender party thereto shall be a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, (unless all Lenders have increased their respective Commitments proportionately and there is no Additional Lender) then Borrower shall borrow from each increasing Lender and Additional Lender and shall make prepayments to the other Lenders (all without restriction by any otherwise applicable restrictions on borrowing or prepaying hereunder), and each increasing Lender and/or the Additional Lender, as applicable, shall purchase (and the other Lenders shall sell) participation interests in Letters of Credit, such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender, if applicable) shall hold its Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests in Letters of Credit) after giving effect to the increase in the Commitments. (vi) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Commitment Increase Agreement or an Additional Lender Agreement, executed by the Borrower and the Lender or the Borrower and the Additional Lender party thereto, as applicable, and the Administrative Questionnaire referred to in Section 2.06(c)(iii), if applicable, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Commitment Increase Agreement or Additional Lender Agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.04(c). No increase in the Commitments shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 2.06(c)(vi).

This increase will become effective at the beginning of the sixth year. 11.6.2 Each regular classified employee shall receive an additional two-range increase (5%) upon completion of ten (10) years of satisfactory and continuous service. This increase will become effective at the beginning of the eleventh year. 11.6.3 Each regular classified employee shall receive an additional two-range increase (5%) upon completion of fifteen (15) years of satisfactory and continuous service.

Revolving Committed Amount If at any time after the Closing Date, the sum of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans plus outstanding Swingline Loans plus outstanding LOC Obligations shall exceed the Revolving Committed Amount, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and (after all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans have been repaid) Cash Collateralize the LOC Obligations in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess (such prepayment to be applied as set forth in clause (vii) below).
Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Tranches All borrowings, prepayments, conversions and continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. In no event shall there be more than five Eurodollar Tranches outstanding at any time.
