|
(f) |
during the Waiver Period, the Borrowers may transfer to the Parent an aggregate amount of up to $1,000,000 to pay for the Parent’s general and administrative costs directly related to transactions to raise Disposal Proceeds or Funding Proceeds; provided that at the time such transfer is to be made (x) all expenses then due and payable in connection with maintaining the Borrowing Base Assets have first been paid in full, and (y) such transfer would not cause the Monthly Withdrawal Limit to be exceeded in any calendar month, and |
