Checking Account on such Business Day in the amount of such deficit; provided, however, that the sum
of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Sweep Plus Revolving Loans

(B) any authorizing corporate documents as the Agent may reasonably request
and (C) a duly executed Notice of Borrowing, (xi) the Borrower may only
exercise any such Incremental Sweep Plus Revolving Facility to the extent that
the Revolving Committed Amount has been increased prior to the date of such
exercise pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Committed Amount
and (x) the Required Lenders shall have approved each Incremental Sweep Plus
Revolving Facility. The Borrower may invite other banks, financial
institutions and investment funds reasonably acceptable to the Agent to join
this Credit Agreement as Lenders hereunder for any portion of such Incremental
Sweep Plus Revolving Facility, provided that such other banks, financial
institutions and investment funds shall enter into such joinder agreements to

Revolving Loans as necessary such that, after giving effect to such Incremental
Sweep Plus Revolving Facility, each Lender will hold Sweep Plus Revolving Loans
and Participation Interests based on its Revolving Commitment Percentage (after
