Security Deposit Letter of Credit As a condition of this Lease, in lieu of a third-party guaranty, Tenant shall, with delivery of the Lease executed by Tenant, deliver to Landlord an unconditional and irrevocable letter of credit, in a form approved by Landlord, from a commercial banking institution which is a member of FDIC with assets of more than $250,000,000.00, approved by Landlord, in the amount of $100,000.00 (“Letter of Credit”) to be held by Landlord as security for the performance by Tenant of all the covenants and obligations of Tenant set forth in this Lease. Tenant shall submit its proposed form of Letter of Credit prior to execution of the Lease for Landlord’s review and approval. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it shall keep the Letter of Credit in full force and effect throughout the Term of this Lease (and any extension or renewal thereof) and for thirty (30) days following the end thereof. In the event the term of the Letter of Credit must be renewed annually, then not less than thirty (30) days prior to any expiration date of the Letter of Credit (“Renewal Deadline”), Tenant shall provide Landlord with a replacement Letter of Credit or extension amendment. Said Letter of Credit shall contain terms whereby it can be drawn on by Landlord at sight on any date during its term on which issuer shall receive from Landlord a certification signed by Landlord stating that an Event of Default has occurred by Tenant under this Lease or that Tenant has failed to provide a replacement Letter of Credit, as required under the Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the Landlord is the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit and the proceeds thereof are not the property of the Tenant. Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to apply the proceeds against any or all amounts then due and owing by Tenant hereunder and/or against sums expended by Landlord, including attorneys fees. Such actions by Landlord do not negate Tenant’s obligations to pay Rental thereafter. Any balance left of the sum received from drawing on the Letter of Credit, after the curing of defaults and/or the payment of amounts due by Tenant, shall be held by Landlord, as beneficiary, until the earlier of the replacement of the Letter of Credit, as required below, or thirty (30) days following the end of the Term of this Lease (and any extension or renewal thereof). The original Letter of Credit or any portion of the proceeds which are not utilized by Landlord for any purpose permitted under this Lease shall be returned to the issuing banking institution within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term provided Tenant has performed all of the remaining obligations imposed upon Tenant pursuant to this Lease. In the event Landlord shall draw on any Letter of Credit provided by Tenant, Tenant shall replace same no later than thirty (30) days after the date of such drawing and, if same is not replaced, such failure shall constitute an additional Event of Default under the terms of this Lease and Landlord shall have the benefit of all remedies permitted pursuant to the terms of this Lease and the laws of the State where the Premises are located.
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.
The Letter of Credit Facility (a) On the terms and conditions set forth herein (i) the Issuing Bank agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this SECTION 3.01, (A) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Execution Date to the Termination Date to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Company, and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with SUBSECTIONS 3.02(c) and 3.02(e), and (B) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit; and (ii) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit Issued for the account of the Company; provided, that the Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to Issue, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in, any Letter of Credit if, as of the date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit (the "ISSUANCE DATE"), after giving effect to such Issuance, (1) the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations plus the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans would exceed the lesser of (x) the combined Commitments and (y) the Borrowing Base, or (2) the Effective Amount of the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company's ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and, accordingly, the Company may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit which have expired or which have been drawn upon and reimbursed.
Supporting Letter of Credit; Cash Collateral If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.18 and any other provision of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit is outstanding upon the termination of this Agreement, then upon such termination the Borrowers shall deposit with the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding, as the Majority Lenders, in their discretion, shall specify, either (A) a standby letter of credit (a “Supporting Letter of Credit”) in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, issued by an issuer satisfactory to the Agent in an amount equal to the greatest amount for which such Letter of Credit may be drawn plus any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit, under which Supporting Letter of Credit the Agent is entitled to draw amounts necessary to reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for payments made by the Agent and the Lenders under such Letter of Credit or under any credit support or enhancement provided through the Agent with respect thereto and any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit or credit support, or (B) cash in amounts necessary to reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for payments made by the Agent or the Lenders under such Letter of Credit or under any credit support or enhancement provided through the Agent and any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit or credit support. Such Supporting Letter of Credit or deposit of cash shall be held by the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, as security for, and to provide for the payment of, the aggregate undrawn amount of such Letters of Credit or such credit support remaining outstanding. At Agent’s or Letter of Credit Issuer’s request, Borrowers shall cash collateralize in a manner satisfactory to Agent the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender.
Delivery of Letter of Credit Tenant shall deliver to Landlord concurrent with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, as protection for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under this Lease and for all losses and damages Landlord may suffer (including, without limitation, damages provided to Landlord pursuant to Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code) as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease, an unconditional, clean, irrevocable negotiable standby letter of credit (the “L/C”) in the amount set forth in Section 10 of the Summary (the “L/C Amount”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I, payable in the City of San Francisco, California (or payable upon delivery of a draw request sent by Landlord by overnight courier delivery), running in favor of Landlord, drawn on a bank (the “Bank”) reasonably approved by Landlord and at a minimum having a long term issuer credit rating from Standard and Poor’s Professional Rating Service of A or a comparable rating from Xxxxx’x Professional Rating Service (the “Credit Rating Threshold”), and otherwise conforming in all material respects to the requirements of this Article 21, including, without limitation, all of the requirements of Section 21.2 below, all as set forth more particularly hereinbelow. Tenant shall pay all expenses, points and/or fees incurred by Tenant in obtaining and maintaining the L/C. In the event of an assignment by Tenant of its interest in the Lease (and irrespective of whether Landlord’s consent is required for such assignment), the acceptance of any replacement or substitute letter of credit by Landlord from the assignee shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, and the out-of-pocket attorney’s fees for outside counsel incurred by Landlord in connection with such determination shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days of billing.
Letter of Credit Payments If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Letter of Credit.
Letter of Credit Amounts Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.
Transfer of Letter of Credit The Letter of Credit may be transferred and assigned in accordance with the terms of the Letter of Credit.
Cover for Letter of Credit Liabilities In the event that the Borrowers shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.10, to provide cover for Letter of Credit Liabilities, the Borrowers shall effect the same by paying to the Administrative Agent immediately available funds in an amount equal to the required amount, which funds shall be retained by the Administrative Agent in the Collateral Account (as collateral security in the first instance for the Letter of Credit Liabilities) until such time as the Letters of Credit shall have been terminated and all of the Letter of Credit Liabilities paid in full.
Letter of Credit Facility Subject to the terms hereof, Issuing Lender will, from time to time and for its own account and not on behalf of the Lenders, upon request by Borrower, issue one or more Letters of Credit for the account of Borrower, provided that (i) the aggregate face amount of such Letters of Credit (including the amount of the requested Letter of Credit but exclusive of the SBID Letter of Credit) does not exceed $500,000, and (ii) each Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date no later than one year from issuance or the Maturity Date. If the requested Letter of Credit will be an extension of the SBID Letter of Credit, such SBID Letter of Credit shall not be in an amount greater than the lesser of (i) $1,105,743.00 or (ii) the Borrowing Base minus the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans. As an additional condition to the issuance of any Letter of Credit, Borrower shall execute and deliver Issuing Lender's customary Letter of Credit application and shall pay to Issuing Lender for its account only a Letter of Credit fee, payable quarterly in advance, beginning with the date of issuance and each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 thereafter, in an amount equal to the greater of (i) $500.00 or (ii) one and one-quarter percent (1.25%) per annum (pro-rated for periods of less than one year) of the unfunded face amount thereof. Such Letter of Credit shall be issued in form satisfactory to Issuing Lender. The amount, if any, from time to time drawn by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed and paid by Borrower to Issuing Lender ON DEMAND, or, at Issuing Lender's option, charged as a Revolving Loan to Borrower pursuant to SECTION 2.1(a), whether or not Borrower would then be entitled to an Advance for such amount pursuant to SECTION 2.1(a); Lenders are authorized to make any such Loan on the request of Issuing Lender; provided, however, if such Loan would cause the aggregate amount of the Loans then outstanding (including the Loan to be made with respect to the reimbursement of the Letter of Credit) to exceed the Borrowing Base, the amount of such Loan equal to such excess shall be made solely by the Lender who is also the Issuing Lender. The reimbursement obligations and all other obligations of Borrower to Issuing Lender with respect to all Letters of Credit shall be secured by Liens in the Collateral that rank PARI PASSU with the Liens of the Lenders in the Collateral; accordingly each Dollar realized on the Collateral and the proceeds thereof shall be shared by the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Issuing Lender, on the other hand, in the proportion that the Obligations (determined without inclusion of any Letter of Credit Exposure) and the Letter of Credit Exposure bears to one another; provided, however, in determining the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Issuing Lender, all Letter of Credit Exposure, contingent or otherwise, shall be included in any calculation; provided, further, that if the Issuing Lender receives any proceeds of Collateral on account of any Letter of Credit which, at the time of receipt of the proceeds, may still be drawn upon and which thereafter expires without being drawn upon, then such proceeds shall be reallocated among the Lenders and the Issuing Lender on the basis of a new determination of Obligations and Letter of Credit Exposure. Prior to such reallocation or the application of such proceeds to unpaid reimbursement obligations of Borrower to Issuing Lender, Issuing Lender shall hold such proceeds in an interest bearing cash collateral account (the "CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT") which shall be in the name of and under the sole dominion and control of Issuing Lender for the benefit of itself and Lenders pursuant to the terms hererof. Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to Issuing Lender such documentation with respect to the Cash Collateral Account as Issuing Lender may request and hereby pledges and grants to Issuing Lender, for the benefit of Issuing Lender and Lenders, a security interest in all such proceeds and funds held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all interest thereon, claims and choses in action in respect thereof, and the proceeds thereof, as additional security for the payment of all amounts due in respect of the Letter of Credit Exposure, whether or not then due, and all other Obligations.
