2.02. Recitals. The recitals in the Existing LC Agreement shall be amended and restated in their entirety to read as follows: “The parties hereto agree as follows:”.
2.03. Certain Definitions.
(a) The last sentence of the definition of “Commitment” contained in Section 1.01 of the Existing LC Agreement shall be amended in its entirety to read as follows: “The aggregate amount of the Banks’ Commitments is $900,000,000 as of the Restatement Effective Date.”
(b) Section 1.01 of the Existing LC Agreement shall be amended by inserting the following definitions (or, in the case of any of the following defined terms that are already defined in the Existing LC Agreement, by amending and restating in its entirety each such term to read as set forth below) in their proper respective alphabetical locations:
“Applicable Rate” means, for any day, with respect to the facility fees or letter of credit fees payable hereunder, as the case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “Facility Fee” or “Letter of Credit Fee”, respectively, based upon the ratings by Xxxxx’x and S&P, respectively, applicable on such date to the Index Debt:
| Index Debt (S&P/Xxxxx’x) |
Facility Fee |
Letter of Credit Fee |
||||||
| Category 1 |
> A / A2 | 0.06 | % | 0.215 | % | |||
| Category 2 |
A- / A3 | 0.08 | % | 0.245 | % | |||

Each change in the Applicable Rate shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of Xxxxx’x or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Company and the Banks shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the rating of Xxxxx’x and/or S&P, as the case may be, most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.
