The Term Loan Commitments shall terminate upon the advance of the Term Loans in the full amount of the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment, and Term Loans that are repaid may not be reborrowed. (b) Term Loans hereunder shall be made ratably by the several Term Loan Lenders in accordance with their respective Term Loan Pro Rata Shares. (c) All Term Loan Obligations shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the Term Loan Maturity Date unless such Term Loan Obligations shall sooner become due and payable pursuant to Section 8.01 or as otherwise provided in this Agreement. (d) Each Borrowing under the Term Loan Facility shall be in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for a Borrowing consisting of LIBOR Loans and Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of ABR Loans and, in either case, if in excess of the specified amount, in integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). Each Borrowing under the Term Loan Facility shall consist of a Term Loan made by each Term Loan Lender in the proportion of its Term Loan Pro Rata Share. On such terms and conditions, Term Loans may be outstanding as ABR Loans or LIBOR Loans. Each type of Term Loan shall be made and maintained at the applicable Term Loan Lender’s Lending Office for such type of Loan. The failure of any Term Loan Lender to make any requested Term Loan to be made by it on the date specified for such Term Loan shall not relieve any other Term Loan Lender of its obligation (if any) to make such Term Loan on such date, but no Term Loan Lender (or other Lender) shall be responsible for the failure of any other Term Loan Lender to make such Term Loan to be made by such other Term Loan Lender.

Under no circumstances shall any Lender be obligated to make any such Loan if, after giving effect to such Loan: (i) the Aggregate Capital would exceed the Facility Limit at such time; (ii) the sum of (A) the Capital of such Lender, plus (B) the aggregate outstanding Capital of each other Lender in its Group, would exceed the Group Commitment of such Lender’s Group; (iii) if such Lender is a Committed Lender, the aggregate outstanding Capital of such Committed Lender would exceed its Commitment; or (iv) the Aggregate Capital would exceed the Borrowing Base at such time.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans until the Termination Date in respect of the Revolving Loan Facility.

• Credit Facility (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date: (i) Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Commitment and the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, the “Borrowing Limit”); and (ii) upon receipt of a copy of each Borrowing Notice, (A) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice, and (B) each Co-Agent belonging to a Conduit Group shall determine whether its Conduit, if any, will fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Conduit Group’s Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice. In the event that a Co-Agent elects not to have its Conduit make any such Loan to Borrower, the applicable Co-Agent shall promptly notify the Funding Agent (who shall promptly notify the Borrower) and, unless Borrower cancels its Borrowing Notice as to all Lenders, (1) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance, (2) each of such Conduit’s Committed Lenders severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of its Conduit Group’s Percentage of such Loan and (3) each other Conduit shall fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the required Advance, provided that (x) at no time may the aggregate principal amount of any Conduit Group’s Loans outstanding, exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate amount of such Conduit’s Committed Lenders’ Commitments, and (y) such Conduit Group’s Percentage of the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, such Conduit Group’s “Allocation Limit”), and (y) at no time may the aggregate principal amount of any Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s Loans outstanding exceed the lesser of (x) such Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s Commitment and (y) its Percentage of the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, such Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s “Allocation Limit”). Each Advance shall be made ratably amongst the Conduit Groups and the Unaffiliated Committed Lenders, collectively, in accordance with their respective Percentages. Each of the Advances, and all other Obligations of Borrower, shall be secured by the Collateral as provided in Article XIII. Subject to Sections 1.6(d) and (e), it is the intent of the Conduits, but not the Committed Lenders, to fund all Advances by the issuance of Commercial Paper. Borrower shall not make a request for more than six (6) Advances during any calendar month, and no more than six (6) Advances shall occur, during any calendar month. No more than two (2) Advances shall occur, during any calendar week.

The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing available to the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as instructed by the Borrower.

• Repayment of Revolver Loans Revolver Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Revolver Termination Date, unless payment is sooner required hereunder. Revolver Loans may be prepaid from time to time, without penalty or premium. If any Asset Disposition includes the disposition of Accounts or Inventory, then Net Proceeds equal to the greater of (a) the net book value of such Accounts and Inventory, or (b) the reduction in the Borrowing Base upon giving effect to such disposition, shall be applied to the Revolver Loans. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Overadvance exists, Borrowers shall, on the sooner of Agent’s demand or the first Business Day after any Borrower has knowledge thereof, repay the outstanding Revolver Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce the principal balance of Revolver Loans to the Borrowing Base.
