Within the limits of the Commitment, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow.

• Revolving Credit Facility (i) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally agrees to make available to Borrowers from time to time until the Commitment Termination Date its Pro Rata Share of advances (each, a “Revolving Credit Advance”). The Pro Rata Share of the Loans of any Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate Commitment. The obligations of each Lender hereunder shall be several and not joint. Until the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.1(a); provided, that (x) the amount of any Revolving Credit Advances to be made at any time shall not exceed Availability at such time, (y) the amount of any Revolving Credit Advances to be made to the U.S. Borrowers at any time shall not exceed the U.S. Availability at such time and (z) the amount of any Revolving Credit Advances to be made to the Canadian Borrowers at any time shall not exceed the Canadian Availability at such time. Each Revolving Credit Advance shall be made on notice by Borrower Representative to one of the representatives of Agent identified in Schedule (2.1) at the address specified therein. Any such notice must be given no later than (1) 12 noon (New York, New York time) on the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Advance, in the case of a Base Rate Loan, or (2) 12 noon (New York, New York time) on the date which is three (3) Business Days’ prior to the proposed Revolving Credit Advance, in the case of a LIBOR Loan. Each such notice (a “Notice of Revolving Credit Advance”) may be given verbally by telephone but must be immediately confirmed in writing (by fax, electronic mail or overnight courier) substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.1(a)(i), and shall include the information required in such Exhibit. If any Borrower desires to have the Revolving Credit Advances bear interest by reference to a LIBOR Rate, with respect to LIBOR Loans denominated in Dollars, and BA Rate, with respect to LIBOR Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, Borrower Representative must comply with Section 2.5(e). All Revolving Credit Advances (x) made to a U.S. Borrower shall be denominated in Dollars and (y) made to a Canadian Borrower shall be denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars but shall be deemed to have been made (in the case of Canadian Dollar Revolving Credit Advances) in the Dollar Equivalent of such Revolving Credit Advance.
