US Letters of Credit. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the request of the U.S. Borrowers made in accordance herewith, and prior to the Revolving Termination Date, the U.S. Issuing Bank agrees to issue a requested U.S. Letter of Credit for the account of the U.S. Borrowers. By submitting a request to the U.S. Issuing Bank for the issuance of a U.S. Letter of Credit, the U.S. Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested that the U.S. Issuing Bank issue the requested U.S. Letter of Credit. Each request for the issuance of a U.S. Letter of Credit, or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding U.S. Letter of Credit, shall be irrevocable and shall be made in writing by a Responsible Officer and delivered to the U.S. Issuing Bank via telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Issuing Bank and reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension. Each such request shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the U.S. Issuing Bank and (i) shall specify (A) the amount of such U.S. Letter of Credit, (B) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such U.S. Letter of Credit, (C) the proposed expiration date of such U.S. Letter of Credit, (D) the name and address of the beneficiary of the U.S. Letter of Credit, and (E) such other information (including, the conditions to drawing, and, in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the U.S. Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed, or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such U.S. Letter of Credit, and (ii) shall be accompanied by such Issuer Documents as the Administrative Agent or the U.S. Issuing Bank may request or require, to the extent that such requests or requirements are consistent with the Issuer Documents that the U.S. Issuing Bank generally requests for U.S. Letters of Credit in similar circumstances. The U.S. Issuing Banks’ records of the content of any such request will be conclusive. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the U.S. Issuing Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, issue a U.S. Letter of Credit that supports the obligations of the U.S. Borrowers or one of their Subsidiaries in respect of (x) a lease of real property, or (y) an employment contract. No U.S. Issuing Bank shall issue any U.S. Letter of Credit if the expiry date of the requested U.S. Letter of Credit would occur after the Revolving Termination Date, unless all the U.S. Lenders have approved such expiry date or such U.S. Letter of Credit is Collateralized prior to the Revolving Termination Date.
