6. Subsections (a) and (b) of Section 2.12 of the Loan Agreement are hereby deleted in their entirety and in their stead is inserted the following:
(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), there shall be any increase in the cost to, or reduction in income receivable by, a Bank of making, funding or maintaining Loans (or commitments to make the Loans), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Bank made within a reasonable time after such Bank's determination thereof, pay to the Agent for the account of such Bank additional amounts sufficient to reimburse such Bank for any such additional costs or reduction in income. All such additional amounts shall be determined by such Bank in good faith using appropriate attribution and averaging methods ordinarily employed by such Bank. A certificate of such Bank submitted to the Borrower in good faith as to the amount of such additional costs shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Within ten (10) Business Days after the Agent or such Bank notifies the Borrower in writing of any such additional costs pursuant to this Section 2.12(a), the Borrower may (A) repay in full all Loans of any types or currencies so affected then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such repayment, or (B) convert all Loans of any types or currencies so affected then outstanding into Loans of any other type or currency not so affected upon not less than four (4) Business Days’ notice to the Agent. If any such repayment or conversion of any Libor Rate Loan occurs on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrower also shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks such additional amounts as set forth in Section 2.12(c); provided, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith (whether or not having the force of Law) and (y) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (whether or not having the force of Law), in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in Law regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.
(b) If either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), affects the amount of capital required to be maintained by any Bank or any corporation controlling any Bank and such Bank determines in good faith that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loans (or commitment to make the Loans), then, within ten (10) Business Days of demand by such Bank, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Bank from time to time as specified by such Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Bank determines in good faith such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Bank's Loans (or commitment to make the Loans). Any such demand by a Bank must be made within a reasonable time after such Bank's determination as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. A certificate of such Bank in good faith submitted to the Borrower as to such amounts shall be presumptive evidence of such amounts. Within ten (10) Business Days after the Agent or such Bank notifies the Borrower in writing of any such additional costs pursuant to this Section 2.12(b), the Borrower may (A) repay in full all Loans of any types or currencies so affected then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment, or (B) convert all Loans of any types or currencies so affected then outstanding into Loans of any other type or currency not so affected upon not less than four (4) Business Days’ notice to such Bank. If any such prepayment or conversion of any Libor Rate Loan occurs on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrower also shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks such additional amounts as set forth in Section 2.12(c); provided, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith (whether or not having the force of Law) and (y) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (whether or not having the force of Law), in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in Law regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.
7. Section 2.17(c) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and in its stead is inserted the following:
(c) Notices From Banks That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund Renewals of Libor Rate Loans Denominated in an Optional Currency. If the Borrower delivers a loan request requesting that the Banks renew any Libor Rate Loan which is denominated in an Optional Currency, the Banks shall be under no obligation to renew such Libor Rate Loan if any Bank delivers to the Agent a notice by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), four (4) Business Days prior to effective date of such renewal that such Bank cannot continue to provide Loans in such Optional Currency due to the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Bank (or any of its lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Official Body which would make it unlawful or impossible for such Bank (or any of its lending offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make a Loan in an Optional Currency. In the event the Agent timely receives a notice from a Bank pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), three (3) Business Days prior to the renewal date that the renewal of such Loans in such Optional Currency is not then available, and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Banks of the same. If the Agent shall have so notified the Borrower that any such continuation of Optional Currency Loans is not then available, any notice of renewal with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn, and such Optional Currency Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Optional Currency Loans. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks of any such redenomination, and in such notice, the Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Optional Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Bank's Pro Rate Share thereof; provided, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith (whether or not having the force of Law) and (y) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (whether or not having the force of Law), in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in Law regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.
8. Article II of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by inserting therein as a new Section 2.22 the following:
2.22 Impacted Banks. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Bank becomes an Impacted Bank, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is an Impacted Bank:
(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Impacted Bank pursuant to Section 2.05;
(b) if any Swing Line Loans are outstanding or any Letters of Credit Outstanding exist at the time such Bank becomes an Impacted Bank, then:
(i) all or any part of the outstanding Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding of such Impacted Bank shall be reallocated among the non-Impacted Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share but only to the extent that (x) sum of (1) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, plus, (2) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Loans outstanding, plus (3) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the total of all non-Impacted Banks' Revolving Credit Facility Commitments, and (y) no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time;
(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay such outstanding Swing Line Loans, and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank the Borrowers' obligations corresponding to such Impacted Bank's Pro Rata Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in a deposit account held at the Agent for so long as such Letters of Credit Outstanding exist;
(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Impacted Bank's Pro Rata Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Impacted Bank pursuant to Section 2.07 with respect to such Impacted Bank's Pro Rata Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding during the period such Impacted Bank's Pro Rata Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding are cash collateralized;
(iv) if the Letters of Credit Outstanding of the non-Impacted Banks are reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Banks pursuant to Section 2.07 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Impacted Banks' Pro Rata Share; and
(v) if all or any portion of such Impacted Bank's Pro Rata Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding are neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Bank hereunder, all Letter of Credit Commissions payable under Section 2.07 with respect to such Impacted Bank's Pro Rata Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding shall be payable to the Issuing Bank (and not to such Impacted Bank) until and to the extent that such Letters of Credit Outstanding are reallocated and/or cash collateralized.
