Section 1.10 Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in US Dollars or an Alternative Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform.

The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to any Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable on demand.

 

(c)       Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

 

Section 2.8 Fees.

 

(a)       Facility Fee. TMCC, for the account of the Borrowers, shall pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Applicable Tranche Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a facility fee in US Dollars equal to the Applicable Percentage times the actual daily amount of the Aggregate Commitments of such Applicable Tranche Lenders, regardless of usage (or, if the Aggregate Commitments of such Applicable Tranche Lenders have terminated, on the Outstanding Amount of all Loans and Swing Line Loans of such Applicable Tranche Lender made to the applicable Borrower(s)), which fee shall accrue at all times during the Tranche A Availability Period of such Lender, the Tranche B Availability Period of such Lender, or the Tranche C Availability Period of such Lender, as applicable (and thereafter so long as any Loans or Swing Line Loans of such Applicable Tranche Lenders made to any applicable Borrower remain outstanding, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met; provided that no such fee shall be paid on the unused Tranche A Commitments, unused Tranche B Commitments or unused Tranche C Commitments of any Applicable Tranche Lender that is a Defaulting Lender. Facility fees shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and are due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Maturity Date of such Applicable Tranche Lender (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand). Notwithstanding the above, the facility fees payable to each Lender shall be calculated with respect to such Lender’s Commitment Cap, such that in no event shall the aggregate amount of the facility fees paid to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.8(a) exceed the facility fees that would have been payable to such Lender if the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Commitments were equal to the amount of its Commitment Cap.

(b)       Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letters, if any. Any such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

 

Section 2.9 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for (a) Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by BNP Paribas’s United States “prime rate”, (b) Canadian Prime Rate Loans, (c) XXXXX Loans and (d) Tranche C Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year), or, in the case of interest in respect of Committed Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.11(a), bear interest for one day.

 

Section 2.10 Evidence of Debt. The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to each Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of any Borrower under the Loan Documents to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations of such Borrower. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, each Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

 

Section 2.11 Payments Generally.

 

(a)       All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency or Australian Dollars, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in US Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (or in the case of the Tranche B Lenders, not later than 12:00 p.m.) on the dates specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s

 

  41Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Tranche C Borrower hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Tranche C Loans shall be made to the Australian Sub-Agent for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, through the applicable Australian Sub-Agent’s Office in Australian Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Australian Sub-Agent on the dates specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by (i) the Tranche A Borrowers shall be made to the Administrative Agent, (ii) TCCI shall be made to the Administrative Agent and (iii) the Tranche C Borrower shall be made to the Australian Sub-Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that (x) any payment by any Borrower due under this Agreement, other than any payment to be made in respect of the Tranche B Facility or the Tranche C Facility, be made in the United States, (y) any payments to be made by TCCI in respect of the Tranche B Facility be made in Canada and (z) any payment to be made by the Tranche C Borrower in respect of the Tranche C Facility be made through the applicable Australian Sub-Agent’s Office. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency or Australian Dollars, such Borrower shall make such payment in US Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of such currency payment amount. The Applicable Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent (i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case of payments in US Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency or Australian Dollars, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

 

(b)       If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

 

(c)       Unless a Borrower or any Lender has notified the Applicable Agent prior to the time any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent hereunder, that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent may assume that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent in Same Day Funds, then:

 

(i)       if a Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Applicable Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent to such Lender to the date such

 

  42Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent in Same Day Funds at the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect; and

 

(ii)       if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Applicable Agent the amount thereof in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent to the applicable Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s or the Australian Sub-Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the applicable Borrower, and such Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent, the Australian Sub-Agent or any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

 

A notice of the Applicable Agent to any Lender or any Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

 

(d)       If any Lender makes available to the Applicable Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent because the conditions to the applicable Borrowing set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest, on the succeeding Business Day.

 

(e)       The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans and to fund participations in Swing Line Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Committed Loan or to fund participations in Swing Line Loans on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Committed Loan or to fund participations in Swing Line Loans.

 

(f)       Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

 

(g)       For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure under such act, whenever any interest or fees to be paid by TCCI under this Agreement is to be calculated on the basis of a period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the

 

  43Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

rate determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by the actual number of days in such period of time.

 

(h)       Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as defined in section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada)) payable by TCCI under this Agreement exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “credit advanced” (as defined in that section) under this Agreement lawfully permitted by that section and, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement in respect of “interest” (as defined in that section) payable by TCCI is determined to be contrary to the provisions of that section, such payment, collection or demand shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of TCCI, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the amount of such payment or collection shall be refunded to TCCI. For the purposes of this Agreement, the effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the relevant term and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent will be prima facie evidence of such rate.

 

Section 2.12 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Committed Loans made by it to a Borrower, or the participations in Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Committed Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Applicable Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lenders) such participations in the Committed Loans and subparticipations in Swing Line Loans and Swing Line Loans made by them to such Borrower as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Committed Loans and Swing Line Loans pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 9.6 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation or subparticipation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all of its rights of payment (including any right of set-off, but subject to Section 9.9) with respect to such participation or subparticipation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation or subparticipation. The Applicable Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations or subparticipation purchased under this Section 2.12 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation or subparticipation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under

 

  44Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

 

Section 2.13 Extension of Revolving Maturity Date .

 

(a)       Not earlier than 60 days prior to, nor later than 30 days prior to, any anniversary of the Closing Date (an “Extension Date”), the Borrowers may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the appropriate Lenders), request an extension of the Revolving Maturity Date then in effect for a period of up to one year. Within 20 days of delivery of such notice, each appropriate Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent whether or not it consents to such extension (which consent may be given or withheld in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion). Any Lender not responding within the above time period shall be deemed not to have consented to such extension. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the appropriate Lenders of the Lenders’ responses not less than 24 days after receipt of notice of such extension request. If any Lender declines, or is deemed to have declined, to consent to such extension, the applicable Borrower may, at its own expense, cause any such Lender to be replaced as a Lender pursuant to Section 9.17.

 

(b)       The applicable Revolving Maturity Date shall be extended only if Lenders holding at least 51% of all outstanding Commitments (after giving effect to any replacements of Lenders permitted herein) (the “Consenting Lenders”) have consented thereto. If so extended, the Revolving Maturity Date, as to the Consenting Lenders, shall be extended for one year from the Revolving Maturity Date then in effect, effective as of the applicable Extension Date. The Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall promptly confirm to the Lenders such extension. As a condition precedent to such extension, each Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of such Borrower dated as of the Extension Date signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Borrower approving or consenting to such extension and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension, (A) the representations and warranties of such Borrower contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Extension Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.13, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.4 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.1, and (B) no Default with respect to such Borrower exists. The Borrowers shall prepay any Committed Loans outstanding on each Revolving Maturity Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.5) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Committed Loans ratable with any revised and new Pro Rata Shares of all the Lenders.

 

(c)       This Section 2.13 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.12 or Section 9.1 to the contrary.

 

Section 2.14 Increase in Commitments.

 

(a)       Provided there exists no Default applicable to any Tranche A Borrower, upon notice by TMCC to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the appropriate

 

  45Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

Lenders), TMCC may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments applicable to all Tranche A Borrowers to an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding US$5,660,000,000. At the time of sending such notice, TMCC (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the appropriate Lenders). Each appropriate Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share of such requested increase. Any appropriate Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify all of the Tranche A Borrowers and each appropriate Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, TMCC may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel; provided that the minimum commitment of each such Eligible Assignee is not less than US$10,000,000. The consent of the Lenders is not required to increase the amount of the Aggregate Tranche A Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.14(a), except that each appropriate Lender shall have the right to consent to an increase in the amount of its Commitment as set forth in this Section 2.14(a). If the Lenders and Eligible Assignees do not agree to increase the applicable Aggregate Tranche A Commitments by the amount requested by TMCC pursuant to this Section 2.14(a), TMCC may (i) withdraw its request for an increase in its entirety or (ii) accept, in whole or in part, the increases that have been offered.

 

(b)       If the applicable Aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and TMCC shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify TMCC and the appropriate Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such increase, each Tranche A Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of such Tranche A Borrower dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by a Responsible Officer of such Tranche A Borrower certifying that no Default applicable to such Tranche A Borrower exists. The Tranche A Borrowers shall prepay any Committed Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.5) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed Loans ratable with any revised Pro Rata Shares arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.

 

(c)       This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.12 or 9.1 to the contrary.

 

Section 2.15 [Reserved].

 

Section 2.16 Swing Line Loans.

 

(a)       The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein each applicable Swing Line Lender severally agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.16 to make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) (x) in US Dollars or any Alternative Currency to the Borrowers (other than the Tranche C Borrower)

 

  46Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

and (y) in Australian Dollars to the Tranche C Borrower, from time to time on any Business Day during the Tranche A Availability Period, the Tranche B Availability Period or the Tranche C Availability Period, as applicable, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding (i) for each applicable Swing Line Lender, such Swing Line Lender’s applicable Swing Line Commitment, (ii) for all Swing Line Loans made to the Borrowers other than the Tranche C Borrower, the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the ratable share of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitments or (iii) for all Swing Line Loans made to the Tranche C Borrower, the amount of the Australian Swing Line Sublimit; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Outstandings in respect of the Tranche A Borrowers, TCCI or the Tranche C Borrower, respectively, shall not exceed the applicable Aggregate Commitments, (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Lender under the Tranche A Commitments, Tranche B Commitments or Tranche C Commitments, as applicable, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans to the applicable Borrower(s) shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment applicable to such Borrower(s) and (iii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans of any Lender under the Tranche A Facility, the Tranche B Facility and the Tranche C Facility, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans, plus, in the case of a Swing Line Lender and without duplication, such Lender’s Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment Cap and provided, further, that the Borrowers shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall consist of borrowings made from the several applicable Swing Line Lenders ratably to their respective applicable Swing Line Commitments. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.16, prepay under Section 2.4, and reborrow under this Section 2.16. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s ratable share times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

 

(b)       Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the applicable Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the applicable Swing Line Agent and the Administrative Agent, which (x) in the case of Swing Line Loans requested by notice to the Administrative Agent, may be given by telephone and (y) in the case of Swing Line Loans requested by notice to a Swing Line Agent, may not be given by telephone, but may be given by electronic delivery, confirmed promptly by delivery to the applicable Swing Line Agent and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower. Each such notice must be received by the applicable Swing Line Agent and the Administrative Agent (i) not later than 10:00 a.m. (London time) in the case of any Swing Line Loans to be funded in Europe, 12:00 noon (Central time) in the case of any Swing Line Loans to be funded in the United States, or 11:00 a.m. (Central time) in the case of any Swing Line Loans to be funded in Canada, in each case, on the requested borrowing date or (ii) not later than 8:00 p.m. (Sydney time) on the immediately preceding Business Day prior to the requested borrowing date, in the case of any Swing Line Loans to be funded in Australia, and shall specify (A) the amount and currency to be borrowed, which shall

 

  47Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

be a minimum of US$1,000,000, (or CDN$500,000 where the Swing Line Borrowing is requested by TCCI or A$500,000 where the Swing Line Borrowing is requested by the Tranche C Borrower) (provided that, in the case of TMFNL, such amount shall not be less than the Dollar Equivalent of EUR 100,000 or any other amount (or meeting any other criterion) as at any time ensures that it does not qualify as attracting funds from the “public” under or pursuant to the Netherlands Financial Supervision Act (wet op het financieel toezicht)), (B) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day and (C) if denominated in Australian Dollars, the Interest Period applicable to such Swing Line Borrowing. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the applicable Swing Line Agent and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the applicable Swing Line Agent of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, such Swing Line Agent will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, such Swing Line Agent will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof, and will notify each Swing Line Lender (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the applicable Swing Line Agent has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. (London time, in the case of any Swing Line Loan to be funded in Europe, New York City time, in the case of any Swing Line Loan to be funded in North America or Sydney time, in the case of any Swing Line Loan to be funded in Australia) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (I) directing each Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.16(a), or (II) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each applicable Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. (London time, in the case of any Swing Line Loan to be funded in Europe, Central time, in the case of any Swing Line Loan to be funded in the United States, Montreal time, in the case of any Swing Line Loan to be funded in Canada or Sydney time, in the case of any Swing Line Loan to be funded in Australia) on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the applicable Borrower at its office by crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of the applicable Swing Line Agent in Same Day Funds or as otherwise directed by such Borrower.

 

(c)       Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.

 

(i)       The Swing Line Lenders at any time in their respective sole and absolute discretion may direct the applicable Swing Line Agent to request, on behalf of the applicable Borrower (and each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Swing Line Agent to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Committed Loan or a Committed Tranche C Loan, as applicable, for the account of such Borrower in an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share of (A) the amount of Swing Line Loans made to such Borrower and then outstanding, in the case of Swing Line Loans denominated in US Dollars, (B) the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of Swing Line Loans made to such Borrower and then outstanding, in the case of Swing Line Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency or (C) the amount of Swing Line Loans made to the Tranche C Borrower. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request

 

  48Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.2, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans or Committed Tranche C Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.2. The applicable Swing Line Agent shall furnish the applicable Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Applicable Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its ratable share of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Applicable Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the applicable Swing Line Lenders at (x) the Administrative Agent’s Office for US Dollar-denominated payments or (y) the Australian Sub-Agent’s Office for Australian Dollar-denominated payments, in each case not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.16(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan or a Committed Tranche C Loan, as applicable, to the applicable Borrower in such amount. The Applicable Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lenders.

 

(ii)       If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Committed Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.16(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Committed Loans submitted by the applicable Swing Line Agent as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by such Swing Line Agent that each Lender fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each such Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

 

(iii)       If any Lender fails to make available to the Applicable Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lenders any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.16(c) by the time specified in Section 2.16(c)(i), the Swing Line Lenders shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Applicable Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lenders at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the applicable Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of a Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Applicable Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(iv)       Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.16(c) shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any Swing Line Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other

 

  49Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.16(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of any Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans made to it, together with interest as provided herein.

 

(d)       Repayment of Participations.

 

(i)       At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the applicable Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, such Swing Line Lender will promptly distribute to such Lender its ratable share thereof in the same funds as those received by such Swing Line Lender.

 

(ii)       If any payment received by a Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by such Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 9.6 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to such Swing Line Lender its ratable share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the applicable Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

 

(e)       Interest for Account of Swing Line Lenders. The applicable Swing Line Agent shall be responsible for invoicing the applicable Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Committed Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.16 to refinance such Lender’s ratable share of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such ratable share shall be solely for the account of the respective Swing Line Lenders.

 

(f)       Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. Each Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans made directly to the applicable Swing Line Agent, for the account of the respective Swing Line Lenders.

 

Section 2.17 Defaulting Lenders.

 

(a)        Generally. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, any prepayment of the Loans shall, if the Tranche A Borrowers, TCCI or the Tranche C Borrower, as applicable, so direct at the time of making such prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Applicable Tranche Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Tranche A Loans, Tranche B Loans or Tranche C Loans, as applicable, outstanding; (ii) such Defaulting Lender’s unused Aggregate Commitments shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the facility fee payable to Lenders pursuant to Section 2.8(a) in respect of any day during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any facility fee with respect to its

 

  50Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

unused Commitment(s) pursuant to Section 2.8(a) for any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender; and (iii) the aggregate amount of the Tranche A Loans, Tranche B Loans and Tranche C Loans as at any date of determination shall be calculated as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Lender. No Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.17(a), performance by any Borrower or any Lender of its obligations hereunder shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of any failure by a Defaulting Lender to fund or the operation of this Section 2.17(a). The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.17(a) are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Defaulted Loan.

 

(b)       Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.9 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, as the Borrower that made such payment may request (so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(f) has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Borrower), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Swing Line Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(f) has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Borrower, to the payment of any amounts owing to the applicable Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable facility. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(c)       Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Swing Line Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Tranche, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

 

ARTICLE III

 

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

 

Section 3.1 Taxes.

 

(a)       Subject to the other provisions of this Section 3.1 and Section 9.15, any and all payments by any Borrower to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.1(a)), each of the Administrative Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, such Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of such payment.

 

(b)       In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay to each appropriate Lender Other Taxes incurred by such Lender.

 

(c)       Each Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each appropriate Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.1(c)) paid by the Administrative Agent and such Lender and (ii) any liability (including additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payment under this Section 3.1(c) shall be made within 15 days after the date the Lender or the Administrative Agent makes a demand therefor.

 

  52Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

(d)       In the case of interest payments made by TKG, this Section 3.1 shall only apply to a Lender who is the legal and beneficial owner of amounts received pursuant to this Agreement and has provided evidence to TKG: (i) that such Lender is a person (a corporate body or an individual) which is, for taxation purposes, resident outside of the territory of (1) the Federal Republic of Germany and (2) a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction (as defined below), (ii) if such Lender is a partnership, that all direct and indirect partners of that partnership are persons who are, for taxation purposes, resident outside of the territory of (1) the Federal Republic of Germany and (2) a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction, and does not hold any amounts received pursuant to this Agreement through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in Germany or (iii) that such Lender qualifies as a credit institution or financial institution within the meaning of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz). “Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction” means any non-cooperative state or territory (nicht kooperatives Steuerhoheitsgebiet) as set out in the regulation (as amended from time to time) referred to in Section 3 paragraph 1 of the German Tax Haven Act (Steueroasen-Abwehrgesetz).

 

(e)       TFSUK is not required to pay additional amounts to a Lender (other than a new Lender pursuant to a request by a Borrower under Section 9.17) pursuant to Section 3.1 in respect of any Tax that is required by the United Kingdom to be withheld from a payment of interest on a Loan made to TFSUK if at the time the payment falls due: (i) the relevant Lender is not a UK Qualifying Lender and that Tax would not have been required to be withheld had that Lender been a UK Qualifying Lender unless the reason that that Lender is not a UK Qualifying Lender is a change after the date on which it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or double taxation agreement or any published practice or published concession of any relevant Governmental Authority; (ii) the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of (a)(ii) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender and (1) an officer of H.M. Revenue & Customs has given (and not revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of the UK ITA which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from TFSUK a certified copy of that Direction; and (2) that Tax would not have been required to be withheld had that Direction not been made; (iii) the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of (a)(ii) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender and (1) the relevant Lender has not given a UK Tax Confirmation to TFSUK; and (2) that Tax would not have been required to be withheld had the Lender given a UK Tax Confirmation to TFSUK, on the basis that the UK Tax Confirmation would have enabled TFSUK to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the UK ITA; or (iv) the relevant Lender is a UK Treaty Lender or a US LLC Lender and TFSUK is able to demonstrate that that Tax is required to be withheld as a result of the failure of the relevant Lender to comply with its obligations under Section 9.15(a). Any Lender which is a Lender in respect of a Loan to TFSUK shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and TFSUK if (i) it is not, or ceases to be, a UK Qualifying Lender, for whatever reason, or (ii) it is a UK Qualifying Non-Bank Lender and there is any change in the position from that set out in the UK Tax Confirmation it has given.

 

(f)       TFA is not required to pay additional amounts to a Tranche A Lender or a Tranche C Lender pursuant to this Section 3.1 in respect of any Tax that is required by the Commonwealth of Australia or any political sub-division thereof to be withheld or deducted from a payment of interest on a Loan made to TFA if at the time the payment falls due (i) the

 

  53Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

relevant Tranche A Lender or the relevant Tranche C Lender is an Offshore Associate of TFA, (ii) the payment could have been made to the relevant Tranche A Lender or the relevant Tranche C Lender without any withholding or deduction in respect of such Tax if, before TFA makes a relevant payment, the relevant Tranche A Lender or the relevant Tranche C Lender, or an entity acting on behalf of such Tranche A Lender or such Tranche C Lender, provided TFA with any of its name, address, tax file number, (if applicable) an Australian business number, registration number or similar details of any relevant tax exemption, or (iii) the withholding or deduction in respect of such Tax is in respect to any withholding or deduction on account of TFA receiving a direction under section 255 of the Australian Tax Act or section 260-5 of Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 of Australia or any similar law.

 

(g)       If the Administrative Agent or a Lender shall become aware that it is entitled to claim a refund from a Governmental Authority in respect of, or remission for, Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has received additional amounts under this Section 3.1, such Administrative Agent or Lender shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower and Agent (as applicable) of the availability of such claim and, to the extent that the Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) determines in good faith that making such claim will not have an adverse effect on its taxes or business operation, shall, within 60 days of receipt of a request by such Borrower, make such claim. If the Administrative Agent or Lender (acting in good faith) determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by such Borrower or with respect to which such Borrower has paid amounts pursuant to this Section 3.1, it shall pay over the amount of such refund to such Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (but amounts hereby recovered by the Borrower shall not exceed the indemnity payments made, or the amounts paid, as applicable, by such Borrower under this Section 3.1) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit); provided, however, that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 3.1(g) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

 

(h)        The agreements in this Section 3.1 shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations.

 

Section 3.2 Illegality.

 

(a)       If any Lender determines that any Regulatory Change has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful as a result of such Regulatory Change, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund any Loans (other than Base Rate Loans or Tranche C Loans), or to determine or charge interest rates based

 

  54Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

upon any Benchmark, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the applicable Borrower through the Administrative Agent as to such illegality), any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Loans associated with such Benchmark or, in the case of Term Rate Loans in US Dollars, to convert Base Rate Committed Loans to Term Rate Loans or, in the case of Tranche B Loans in Canadian Dollars, to convert Canadian Prime Rate Loans to Term Rate Loans, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist (and such Lender shall give such notice promptly upon receiving knowledge that such circumstances no longer exist). If a Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Loans (other than Base Rate Loans or Tranche C Loans) to maturity and shall so specify in a notice pursuant to the preceding sentence, upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), elect to either (i) promptly prepay all such Loans of such Lender or (ii) immediately convert all such Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans in US Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent. In the event such Loans are Term Loans, such prepayment or conversion will occur either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term Rate Loans to such day, or promptly prepay or immediately convert, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

 

(b)       [Reserved.]

 

(c)        Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if in respect of any Tranche C Loan made under this Agreement to the Tranche C Borrower, it becomes unlawful or impossible (as a result of any Regulatory Change) in any jurisdiction for a Tranche C Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund or maintain its participation in any Tranche C Loan:

 

(i)such Tranche C Lender shall forthwith notify the Australian Sub-Agent and the Tranche C Borrower;

 

(ii)such Tranche C Lender’s obligations under this Agreement in respect to such Tranche C Loan are immediately suspended for the duration of such illegality or other effect;

 

(iii)such Tranche C Lender may, by notice to the Australian Sub-Agent and the Tranche C Borrower, cancel such Tranche C Lender’s available Tranche C Commitment with immediate effect;

 

(iv)without limiting Sections 3.2(c)(ii) and 3.2(c)(iii), such Tranche C Lender shall consult and negotiate in good faith with the Tranche C Borrower for a period not exceeding 30 days with a view to determining whether amendments can be made to this Agreement to enable all or a part of such Tranche C Loan to continue to be provided to the Tranche C Borrower; and

 

  55Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 
(v)if no such amendments are agreeable to the Tranche C Borrower and such Tranche C Lender and the illegality or other effect is continuing:

 

(1)such Lender or the Tranche C Borrower may notify the other party and the Australian Sub-Agent that such Loan is to be terminated and, to the extent it has not already been so cancelled in accordance with Section 3.2(c)(iii), such Lender’s available Tranche C Commitment will be cancelled as of the 90th day after the date such notice is delivered to the other party; and

 

(2)the Tranche C Borrower shall repay such Loan, together with all accrued but unpaid interest and other unpaid amounts owing in respect of such Loan, in full on:

 

(A)the later of the last day of the current Interest Period for such Loan and the 90th day after notice has been given in accordance with Section 3.2(c)(v)(1); or

 

(B)if earlier, the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law.

 

Section 3.3 Inability to Determine Rates. (a) (i) If, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period (or, in the case of any Benchmark that is not a Term Rate, on any Business Day), the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that for any reason (other than a Benchmark Transition Event) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining any Benchmark pursuant to the definition thereof, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify any affected Borrower and each Lender. Upon receipt of such notice, (1) the applicable Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of any Loan at such Benchmark or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Base Rate Loan in US Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent, (2) any outstanding affected Term Rate Loans will be deemed to have been converted to a Base Rate Loan in US Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent at the end of the applicable Interest Period, (3) any outstanding affected Loans that are not Term Rate Loans will be deemed to have been converted immediately to a Base Rate Loan in US Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent, and (iv) in the case of any such notice regarding any Benchmark used as a component of Base Rate, such component will not be used in any determination of Base Rate Loans until such notice is revoked.

 

(ii) If, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period, the applicable Required Lenders determine that as a result of a Regulatory Change, the Term Rate for any requested currency and Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term Rate Loan or conversion to or continuation thereof does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify any affected Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (A) the obligation of the appropriate Lenders to make or maintain Term Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies and affected Interest Periods to such Borrower shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the applicable Required Lenders) revokes such notice (which revocation shall be made promptly upon such

 

  56Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

instruction from the applicable Required Lenders) and (B) in the case of any such notice pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 3.3(a) regarding Term SOFR for an Interest Period of one-month, the Term SOFR component shall not be utilized in determining the Base Rate until such notice is revoked. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein or the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the event of a Committed Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency.

 

(b)       If the Australian Sub-Agent determines that, in relation to a Tranche C Loan for any Interest Period,

 

(i)at or about 1:00 p.m. (Sydney time) on the first day of the relevant Interest Period the Bank Xxxx Rate is not available and none or only one of the Australian Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Australian Sub-Agent to determine the Bank Xxxx Rate for the relevant currency and period (in which case each Tranche C Lender will be an “Affected Tranche C Lender”); or

 

(ii)in relation to a Tranche C Loan for which the interest rate per annum was to have been Bank Xxxx Rate, before 5:00 p.m. (Sydney time) on the Business Day after the first day of the relevant Interest Period, the Australian Sub-Agent receives notifications from a Tranche C Lender or Tranche C Lenders whose participations in that Tranche C Loan exceed 50% of that Tranche C Loan, that as a result of market circumstances not limited to it the cost to it of funding its participation in the Tranche C Loan is or would be in excess of Bank Xxxx Rate (in which case an “Affected Tranche C Lender” will be each Tranche C Lender which gives such a notification).

 

then it shall promptly notify the Tranche C Borrower and the Tranche C Lenders, and the rate of interest on each Affected Tranche C Lender’s participation in that Tranche C Loan for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

 

(x)the Applicable Rate; and

 

(y)the rate notified to the Australian Sub-Agent by that Affected Tranche C Lender as soon as practicable and in any event no later than the Business Day before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Affected Tranche C Lender of funding its participation in that Tranche C Loan from whatever source or sources it may reasonably select.

 

Each Affected Tranche C Lender shall determine the rate notified by it under sub-paragraph (b)(y) above in good faith. The rate so notified and any other notification under this Section 3.3(b) will be conclusive and binding on the parties in the absence of manifest error.

 

Section 3.4 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on Term Rate Loans.

 

  57Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

(a)       (i) If in the case of Term Rate Loans, any Lender determines that as a result of the introduction of any regulation issued by the Federal Reserve Board for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including any emergency, supplemental or other marginal reserve requirement) with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities” in Regulation D) after the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, there shall be an increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, continuing, converting to, funding or maintaining Term Rate Loans or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any Term Rate Loan, or

 

(ii) if in the case of Term Rate Loans or Tranche C Loans, any Lender determines that as a result of a Regulatory Change, there shall be a material increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, continuing, converting to, funding or maintaining Term Rate Loans or Tranche C Loans or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any Term Rate Loan or Tranche C Loan,

 

then from time to time within 15 days of demand by such Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, together with a reasonable basis therefor (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), subject to Section 3.4(c), the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost incurred or reduction suffered.

 

(b)       If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law after the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith or as a result of any Regulatory Change, has the effect of materially reducing the rate of return on the capital of, or imposing material additional costs associated with liquidity requirements imposed by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States financial regulatory authorities on, such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a direct consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder, then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), subject to Section 3.4(c), the applicable Borrower shall pay within 15 days of demand by such Lender such additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction suffered.

 

(c)       Promptly after receipt of knowledge of any Regulatory Change or other event that will entitle any Lender to compensation under this Section 3.4, such Lender shall give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent certifying the basis for such request for compensation in accordance with Section 3.6(a) and shall (i) exercise reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to minimize any such increased cost and (ii) designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid, or reduce the amount of, compensation payable under this Section 3.4 and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Notwithstanding anything in Sections 3.4(a) or 3.4(b) to the contrary, no Borrower shall be obligated to compensate any Lender for any amount arising or accruing before 90 days prior to the date on which such Lender gives notice to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent

 

  58Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

under this Section 3.4(c) (except that, if the Regulatory Change or other event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

 

(d)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) this Section 3.4 shall not apply to taxes, and (ii) all indemnification (including with respect to increased costs and reduction in amounts received) relating to or attributable to taxes shall be governed solely and exclusively by Section 3.1.

 

(e)        The agreements in this Section 3.4 shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations.

 

(f)        Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section 3.4, no Lender shall demand compensation for any increased cost pursuant to this Section 3.4 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements; provided that no Lender shall be required to disclose any confidential or proprietary information in respect of such demand.

 

Section 3.5 Funding Losses. Within 15 days after delivery of the certificate described in the Section 3.6(a) by any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, each Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of each of the following (except to the extent incurred by any Lender as a result of any action taken pursuant to Section 3.2):

 

(a)       any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Term Rate Loan or Tranche C Loan made to such Borrower on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

 

(b)       any failure by such Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Term Rate Loan or Tranche C Loan on the date or in the amount notified by such Borrower;

 

(c)       any failure by any Borrower to make payment of any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency or Australian Dollars on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency; or

 

(d)       any assignment of a Term Rate Loan or Tranche C Loans on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by such Borrower pursuant to Section 9.17;

 

including any foreign exchange loss and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained but excluding loss of anticipated profits or margin for the period after which any such payment or failure to convert, borrow or prepay. The applicable Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

The agreements in this Section 3.5 shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations.

Section 3.8 Reference Rate Replacement.

(a)       Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event as to any Benchmark, the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the applicable then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark at or after 4:00 p.m. (Central time) on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. At any time that the administrator of the applicable then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, any Borrower may revoke any request made by such Borrower for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until such Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, such Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in US Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of Base Rate based upon such Benchmark (if any) will not be used in any determination of Base Rate Loans.

 

(b)       In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of TMCC, will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

 

(c)       The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 3.8(d). Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent, TMCC or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.8, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.8.

  Agreement (2021)
   
 

(d)       At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the applicable then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR, CDOR or EURIBOR), then the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for the applicable Benchmark (including applicable Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Administrative Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for the applicable Benchmark (including applicable Benchmark Replacement) settings.

Any reference to “Benchmark” shall include, as applicable, the published component used in the calculation thereof.

 

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor:

 

(i)       for Term SOFR, the first alternative set forth below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent:

 

(1)       Daily Simple SOFR, and

 

(2)       the sum of (A) the alternate benchmark rate and (B) an adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero), in each case, that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and TMCC as the replacement for such Available Tenor of such Benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then-prevailing market convention, including any applicable recommendations made by the Relevant Governmental Body, for US Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time;

 

(ii)       for all other Benchmarks, the sum of (1) the alternate benchmark rate and (2) an adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero), in each case, that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and TMCC as the replacement for such Available Tenor of such Benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then-

“Relevant Governmental Body” means (i) with respect to a Benchmark Replacement in respect of Loans denominated in US Dollars, the FRB and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the SOFR Administrator or Term SOFR Administrator, as applicable, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the FRB and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or, in each case, any successor thereto, (ii) with respect to a Benchmark Replacement in respect of Loans denominated in Sterling, the Bank of England, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Bank of England or, in each case, any successor thereto, (iii) with respect to a Benchmark Replacement in respect of Loans denominated in Euros, the European Central Bank, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the European Central Bank or, in each case, any successor thereto and (iv) with respect to a Benchmark Replacement in respect of Loans denominated in any other currency, (1) the central bank for the currency in which such Benchmark Replacement is denominated or any central bank or other supervisor which is responsible for supervising either (A) such Benchmark Replacement or (B) the administrator of such Benchmark Replacement or (2) any working group or committee officially endorsed or convened by (A) the central bank for the currency in which such Benchmark Replacement is denominated, (B) any central bank or other supervisor that is responsible for supervising either (x) such Benchmark Replacement or (y) the administrator of such Benchmark Replacement, (C) a group of those central banks or other supervisors or (D) the Financial Stability Board or any part thereof.

Section  6.7 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans made under this Agreement will be used by such Borrower for its general corporate purposes and will not be used directly, or knowingly indirectly, (a) to support activity in or with a country or region officially and comprehensively sanctioned by the United States, the United Nations, the United Kingdom or the European Union, (b) to fund activities or business of any Designated Person subject to official Sanctions imposed by the United States, the United Nations, Her Majesty’s Treasury of the United Kingdom or the European Union, except to the extent such activity or business would not be prohibited for a U.S., U.K. or European Union Person pursuant to Sanctions or (c) for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, or, in any material respect, any other Person in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, or other applicable Anti-Corruption Law.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 

Section 8.1 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or Participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

 

Section 8.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

Section 8.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein) or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or Participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Borrower or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or Participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Borrower or any Affiliate thereof.

 

Section 8.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature,

 

  80Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, facsimile or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the applicable Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the applicable Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

 

Section 8.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be directed by the applicable Required Lenders in accordance with Article VII; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

 

Section 8.6 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of each Borrower, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to a Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects,

 

  81Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of each Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Borrower or any of its Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

 

Section 8.7 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the applicable Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 8.7; provided, further, that such Indemnified Liability was incurred by or asserted against such Agent-Related Person acting as or for the Administrative Agent in connection with such capacity. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section 8.7 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

 

Section 8.8 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. BNP Paribas and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each Borrower and its Affiliates as though BNP Paribas were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, BNP Paribas or its Affiliates may receive information regarding a Borrower or any of its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of a Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, BNP Paribas shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include BNP Paribas in its individual capacity.

 

Section 8.9 Successor Administrative Agent and Sub-Agents.

  Agreement (2021)
   
 

(a) The Administrative Agent and each Sub-Agent may resign as Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent, as applicable, upon 30 days’ notice to the applicable Lenders. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent or a Sub-Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (e) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person, remove such Person as Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. If (i) the Administrative Agent resigns or is removed under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the Lenders, (ii) the Australian Sub-Agent resigns or is removed, the Required Lenders referred to in paragraph (a) in the definition of “Required Lenders” shall appoint from among the Tranche C Lenders a successor Australian sub-agent, and (iii) any Swing Line Agent resigns, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Swing Line Lenders a successor replacement Swing Line agent, which shall be a bank with an office in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada or Australia, as applicable, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada or Australia, as applicable, which successor, in each case, shall consent to such appointment and shall be consented to by the Borrowers in writing at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(f) (which consent of the Borrowers shall not be unreasonably withheld). If no such successor is so appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent or applicable Sub-Agent, the Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent, as applicable, may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrowers, a successor which meets the qualifications set forth above and consents to the appointment. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent or sub-agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor administrative agent or sub-agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” or “Sub-Agent”, as applicable, shall mean such successor administrative agent or sub-agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s or Sub-Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s or Sub-Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII and Sections 9.4 and 9.5 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent or sub-agent, as applicable, has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s or Sub-Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s or Sub-Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent or Sub-Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time BNP Paribas assigns all of its Commitments and Committed Loans pursuant to Section 9.7(b), BNP Paribas and its Affiliates may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrowers, each resign as Swing Line Agent and Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Swing Line Agent and Swing

Line Lender, the Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders successor Swing Line Agent(s) and successor Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that such successor Swing Line Agent(s) or successor Swing Line Lender consents to such appointment; and provided further, however, that no failure by the Borrowers to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of BNP Paribas and its Affiliates as such Swing Line Agent and Swing Line Lender. If BNP Paribas (and its Affiliates) resigns as a Swing Line Agent and Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of such Swing Line Agent and Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.16(c). Upon the appointment of successor Swing Line Agent(s) and Swing Line Lender, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Agents and Swing Line Lender.

 

Section 8.10 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to a Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on such Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 

(a)       to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing by such Borrower and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 2.8 and Section 9.4) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 

(b)       to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 2.8 and Section 9.4. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Section 8.11 Other Agents, Arrangers and Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “co-agent,” “book manager,” “lead manager,” “arranger,” “lead arranger” or “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

 

Section 8.12 Erroneous Payments.

 

(a)       If the Administrative Agent (x) notifies a Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender (any such Lender or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Administrative Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 8.12 and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in Same Day Funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

 

(b)       Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender (and each of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such

 

  85Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:

 

(i)it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

 

(ii)such Lender shall (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.12(b).

 

For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.12(b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 8.12(a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.

 

(c)       Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Administrative Agent has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a); provided that to the extent any amount subject to such setoff was paid by a Borrower in satisfaction of the Obligations, such Lender agrees that the Obligations payable by such Borrower shall not be increased as a result of such setoff.

 

(d)       (i) In the event that (1) an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor in accordance with Section 8.12(a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), (2) in the case of TMFNL, such Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency is not less than the Dollar Equivalent of EUR 100,000 or any other amount (or meeting any other criterion) as at any time ensures that it does not qualify as attracting funds from the “public” under or pursuant to the Netherlands Financial Supervision Act (wet op het financieel toezicht), and (3) in the case of a Tranche A Loan or Tranche C Loan, there will remain at least two Tranche A Lenders and at least two Tranche C Lenders, upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, then effective immediately (with the consideration therefor being acknowledged by the parties

 

  86Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

hereto), (A) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Tranche with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Tranche”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Tranche, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) (on a cashless basis and such amount calculated at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance)), and is hereby (together with the Borrowers) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an approved electronic platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent (but the failure of such Person to deliver any such Notes shall not affect the effectiveness of the foregoing assignment), (B) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to have acquired the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (C) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender, (D) the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall each be deemed to have waived any consents required under this Agreement to any such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and (E) the Administrative Agent will reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(ii) Subject to Section 9.7 (but excluding, in all events, any assignment consent or approval requirements other than from any Borrower), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition, an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender (x) shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by the Administrative Agent on or with respect to any such Loans acquired from such Lender pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment (to the extent that any such Loans are then owned by the Administrative Agent) and (y) may, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, be reduced by any amount specified by the Administrative Agent in writing to the applicable Lender from time to time.

(e)       The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, to the rights and interests of such Lender) under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) (provided that the Borrowers’ Obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such Obligations in respect of Loans that have been assigned to the Administrative Agent under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by any Borrower; provided that this Section 8.12 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of any Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrower for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Section 8.12 relating to Erroneous Payments will not constitute, create or otherwise alter any Obligations on the part of any of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents or otherwise.

 

(f)       To the extent permitted by applicable Law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

 

(g)      Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 8.12 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

(i)       if to a Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Swing Line Agent, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified for such Person on Schedule 9.2 or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties; provided that, certain of the Borrowers cannot receive and, therefore, none of the Borrowers approve delivery of electronic communications with attachments that have been compressed (including, without limitation “zipped files”); and

 

(ii)       if to any other Lender, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified in its Administrative Questionnaire or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

 

Except as otherwise set forth herein, all such notices and other communications shall be deemed to be given or made upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual receipt by the relevant party hereto and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on behalf of the relevant party hereto; (B) if delivered by mail, four Business Days after deposit in the mail, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile, when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by electronic mail (subject to the provisions of subsection (c) below), when delivered; provided, however, that notices and other communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II shall not be effective until actually received by such Person.

-Agent any Loan proceeds or payments, and to execute any agreements, amendments, modifications, supplements or other documents or instruments in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on its behalf, and in each case such Other Borrower shall be bound as though the Other Borrower itself had duly taken such action. The Administrative Agent, each Sub-Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to rely on the appointment and authorization of each Borrowers’ Representative with respect to all matters related to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other agreements or instruments referred to herein or therein whether or not any particular provision hereof or thereof specifies that such matters may or shall be undertaken by Borrowers’ Representative. In reliance hereon, the Administrative Agent, each Sub-Agent and each Lender may deal with either of the Borrowers’ Representatives alone with the same effect as if the Administrative Agent, such Sub-Agent or such Lender had dealt with each Other Borrower separately and individually. In the event of any conflict between any notices, communications or other acts of the Borrowers’ Representative and those of any Other Borrower, the notices, communications and acts of the Borrowers’ Representative shall prevail.

 

Section 9.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) this Section 9.4 shall not govern any indemnification or other amounts relating to or attributable to taxes, and (ii) all indemnification and other amounts relating or attributable to taxes shall be governed solely and exclusively by Section 3.1.

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Borrowers shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively “Losses”) which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (i) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Commitment, Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are (x) determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y) result from a claim brought by any Borrower against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document if any Borrower has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (z) result from a claim not involving an act or omission of any Borrower and that is brought by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than against any Arranger or the Administrative Agent in their capacities as such); provided further, that the obligations of any Borrower under this Section 9.5 to indemnify any Indemnitee for any Loss with respect solely to such portion of any Loss relating to or calculated based on the loss of principal, interest or fees shall be limited solely to the amount of principal, interest or fees owed by such Borrower as otherwise provided in this Agreement, and such indemnity obligations as to such amounts shall not be joint and several to all Borrowers. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through a Platform in connection with this Agreement, except to the extent such damages resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or in violation of clause (z) of the final paragraph of Section 6.1 (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment), nor shall any Indemnitee have any liability for any indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date).

(b)       An Indemnitee shall give prompt notice to the Borrowers of any claim asserted in writing, or the commencement of any action or proceeding, in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder. All amounts due under this Section 9.5 shall be payable within 15 Business Days after the Borrowers receive demand therefor setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand.

 

(c)       In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Borrower, any Borrower’s equityholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other person or entity, whether or not an Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) this Section 9.5 shall not govern Losses or other amounts relating to or attributable to taxes, and (ii) all Losses and other amounts relating or attributable to taxes shall be governed solely and exclusively by Section 3.1.

 

Section 9.6 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises any right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment.

  Agreement (2021)
   
 

(a)       The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (other than as permitted by Section 6.6) and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 9.7, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section 9.7, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (g) of this Section 9.7 (and any other attempted assignment, transfer or participation by any party hereto or any Participant or prospective Participant shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section 9.7 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

(b)       Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Committed Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any assignment shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (i) so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(f) has occurred and is continuing in respect of a Borrower, such Borrower consents to the assignment (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, reasonable considerations to include the credit rating/quality of such Person, whether such Person is, or is affiliated with, a vehicle finance company affiliate of a vehicle manufacturer, or such Person would reasonably be expected to increase such Borrower’s payments under or resulting from Article III); (ii) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Committed Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (as defined in Section 9.7(i)) with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Committed Loans outstanding thereunder) subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than US$10,000,000 (provided that, in the case of TMFNL, such amount shall not be less than the Dollar Equivalent of EUR 100,000 or any other amount (or meeting any other criterion) as at any time ensures that it does not qualify as attracting funds from the “public” under or pursuant to the Netherlands Financial Supervision Act (wet op het financieel toezicht)) unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Committed Loans or the Commitment assigned; (iv) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); (v) if the assigning

 

  95Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

Lender has a Commitment in more than one Tranche, such Lender shall make a pro rata assignment to its assignee of its Commitments under each such Tranche; (vi) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of US$3,500, which fee may be waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion; and (vii) in respect of a Tranche A Loan or a Tranche C Loan, there will remain at least two Tranche A Lenders and at least two Tranche C Lenders after the assignment. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.7(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1 (with respect to periods it was a Lender), 3.4, 3.5, 9.4 and 9.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, each Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.7(d). If the Eligible Assignee is required to deliver documents pursuant to Section 9.15, it shall deliver those documents to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.15.

 

(c)       The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(d)       Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Swing Line Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Borrower or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or any Person that is, or is affiliated with, a vehicle finance company affiliate of a vehicle manufacturer) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) in the case of TMFNL, the

 

  96Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

amount of such participations sold shall not be less than the Dollar Equivalent of EUR 100,000 or any other amount (or meeting any other criterion) as at any time ensures that it does not qualify as attracting funds from the “public” under or pursuant to the Netherlands Financial Supervision Act (wet op het financieel toezicht) and (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 9.1 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.4 and 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.9 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

 

(e)       A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.1, 3.4 or 3.5 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.1 unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of each Borrower, to comply with Section 9.15 as though it were a Lender.

 

(f)       Each Lender that sells a participation interest in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall record, acting solely for this purpose as non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, in book entries (as defined in Temporary Treasury Regulation §5f.103-1) maintained by such Lender the name and the amount of the participating interest of each Participant entitled to receive payments in respect of such participating interest.

 

  97Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

(g)       Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

disclosure is made have been informed of the confidential nature of such Information and have agreed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or self-regulatory body, including in connection with a pledge or assignment in accordance with Section 9.7(g); (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process provided that the Borrowers are given prompt notice of such subpoena or other process (unless the Administrative Agent or Lender is legally prohibited from giving such notice); provided that such Person shall not be held liable for the failure to provide such notice; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative or credit insurance transaction relating to obligations of a Borrower; (g) with the consent of the applicable Borrower; (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower, who did not acquire such information as a result of a breach of this Section; or (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization.

Other than with respect to the information referenced in clause (z) of the final paragraph of Section 6.1, any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

 

Section 9.9 Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default with respect to a Borrower, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude any Lender, at any time and from time to time, from exercising any right of set-off, counterclaim, or other rights it may have independent of and otherwise than under this Agreement or from applying amounts realized against any and all Obligations owing by such Borrower to such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of set-off, (x) all amounts so set-off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent

and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised the right of set-off. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

 

Section 9.10 Interest Rate Limitation.

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement.

  Agreement (2021)
   
 

Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

 

Section 9.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

(a)       (i) Each Tranche A Lender that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) shall deliver to TMCC (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prior to becoming a party to this Agreement (or upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein) two duly signed completed copies of (x) IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax on payments to be made to such Foreign Lender pursuant to this Agreement), (y) IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to payments to be made to such Foreign Lender pursuant to this Agreement) or (z) such other evidence satisfactory to TMCC and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) or 871(h) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, and as reasonably requested by TMCC in writing, each such Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, (A) promptly submit to TMCC (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to TMCC of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by TMCC pursuant to this Agreement, (B) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that TMCC make any deduction or withholding for or on account of United States taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender. In addition, in relation to all payments to be made to a Tranche A Lender by TFSUK, such Lender shall cooperate, to the extent it is able to do so, with TFSUK in completing any procedural formalities necessary for TFSUK to obtain authorization to make such a payment without a deduction or withholding for or on account of UK Taxes including, to the extent reasonably practicable, making and filing an appropriate application for relief under a double taxation agreement; provided that, nothing in this Agreement shall require a UK Treaty Lender to register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme or apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport

scheme to any loan if it has so registered and if a Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with Section 9.15(a)(ix) below, no Borrower shall make a DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s) or its participation in any Loan unless the Lender otherwise agrees.

 

(ii)        [Reserved].

 

(iii)       With respect to each Tranche A Lender, to the extent under applicable Law such Lender can provide TKG with a certificate, statement or form required by the German taxing authorities in order to be eligible for exemption from, or reduction of, withholding taxes under German tax law, such Lender shall execute and deliver such certificate, statement or form at the time it becomes a party to this Agreement and from time to time as reasonably requested by TKG.

 

(iv)       As of the date that each Lender becomes a Tranche A Lender under this Agreement, each such Lender represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and TCPR that it is an Exempt Lender and agrees that, if Puerto Rico or United States taxing authorities at any time after the date of this Agreement require that such Lender deliver any certificate, statement or form as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, withholding taxes under the Puerto Rico Code or the Code on any payments by TCPR to such Lender under this Agreement, such Lender shall deliver such certificate, statement or form to the Administrative Agent prior to becoming a party to this Agreement (or upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein). Thereafter and from time to time or as reasonably requested by TCPR in writing, each such Lender, to the extent it may lawfully do so, shall (A) promptly submit to TCPR (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) such duly completed and signed certificates, statements or forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant Puerto Rico or United States taxing authorities and such other evidence as is satisfactory to TCPR of any available exemption from, or reduction of, Puerto Rico and United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by TCPR pursuant to this Agreement, (B) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that TCPR make any deduction or withholding on or account of Puerto Rico taxes from amounts payable to such Lender.

 

(v)       If a payment made to the Administrative Agent or a Tranche A Lender hereunder would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if the Administrative Agent or such Tranche A Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), the Administrative Agent or such Tranche A Lender shall deliver to TMCC and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by TMCC or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by TMCC or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for TMCC or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to

 

  102Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

determine that the Administrative Agent or such Tranche A Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (v), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 

(vi)       Each Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to TMCC (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) on the date when such Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of TMCC or the Administrative Agent (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two duly signed completed copies of the certificates, statements or forms required to be provided by such Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own account that is not, in the case of a Tranche A Lender, subject to Puerto Rico or United States withholding tax; and (B) any information such Lender chooses to transmit with such certificates, statements or forms, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code.

 

(vii)       No Borrower (other than TFSUK) shall be required to pay any additional amount to any Lender under Section 3.1 (A) with respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Lender transmits pursuant to this Section 9.15(a) or (B) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy its obligations under this Section 9.15(a); provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this Section 9.15(a) on the date such Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this Section 9.15(a) shall relieve such Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.1 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable Law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other Person for the account of which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate.

 

(viii)       The Administrative Agent may, without reduction, withhold any Taxes required to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of the Loan Documents with respect to which a Borrower is not required to pay additional amounts under this Section 9.15(a).

 

(ix)       (A) A UK Treaty Lender or a US LLC Lender, which becomes party hereto on the date hereof that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name in Schedule 2.1; and (B) a UK Treaty Lender or a US LLC Lender, which becomes a party hereto after the date hereof that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the Assignment and Assumption which it executes, and, in each case, having done so, that Lender

 

  103Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

shall be under no obligation pursuant to Section 9.15(a)(i) above in relation to all payments to be made by TFSUK to such Lender.

 

(x)       If a Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with Section 9.15(ix) above and (A) TFSUK has not made a DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender; or (B) TFSUK has made a DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender but (1) that DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM Revenue & Customs; or (2) HM Revenue & Customs has not given TFSUK authority to make payments to that Lender without a deduction or withholding for or on account of UK Taxes within 60 days of the date of the DTTP Filing, and in each case, TFSUK has notified that Lender in writing, that Lender and TFSUK shall co-operate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for TFSUK to obtain authorization to make that payment without a deduction or withholding for or on account of UK Taxes.

 

(xi)       TFSUK shall, promptly on making a DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of that DTTP Filing to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the relevant Lender.

 

(b)       Upon the request of TMCC or the Administrative Agent in writing, each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Administrative Agent two duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-9. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then TMCC or the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the Code and no party hereto shall have any obligation to pay any additional amount to any Lender under Section 3.1 in respect of such withholding.

 

(c)       If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Administrative Agent. The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

 

Section 9.16 Australian GST.

 

(a)       All consideration, relating to TFA’s participation hereunder, to be paid or provided under or in connection with this Agreement has been calculated without regard to GST. If all or part of any such consideration is the consideration for a taxable supply or chargeable with GST then, when the recipient of the taxable supply provides the consideration (or first part of it):

 

(i)it must pay to the supplier an additional amount equal to that consideration (or part) multiplied by the appropriate rate of GST as provided for under the relevant GST Law; and

 

  104Toyota – Three Year Credit
  Agreement (2021)
   
 

(ii)the supplier will promptly provide to the recipient a tax invoice complying with the relevant law relating to GST.

 

(b)       However, if an adjustment event (for the purposes of the relevant GST Law) arises in respect of any consideration provided by a recipient for a taxable supply which is chargeable with GST then the additional amount paid pursuant to Section 9.16(a) must be adjusted to reflect the adjustment event and the recipient or the supplier (as the case may be) must make any payments necessary to reflect the adjustment.

 

(c)       This Section 9.16 does not apply to the extent that the GST on the supply is payable by the recipient under Division 84 of the GST Act.

 

(d)       A term which has a defined meaning in the GST Law has the same meaning when used in this Section 9.16. For the purposes of this Section 9.16: (i) “GST” has the same meaning as given to the term “GST” under the GST Act; (ii) “GST Act” means the Australian A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Xxx 0000 of Australia; and “GST Law” has the same meaning as given to the term “GST law” under the GST Act.

 

Section 9.17 Replacement of Lenders. Under any circumstances set forth herein providing that a Borrower shall have the right to replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement and (i) if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (ii) any Lender fails to consent to an amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement that pursuant to the terms hereof requires consent of all of the Lenders or all of the Lenders affected thereby (provided that, (x) such amendment, modification, waiver or currency request has been consented to by the Required Lenders and (y) all such non-consenting Lenders are replaced on the same terms) or (iii) any Lender provides written notice under Section 3.8(a) of its objection to any amendment providing a Benchmark Replacement, TMCC may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitment (with the assignment fee to be paid by TMCC in such instance) pursuant to Section 9.7(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees procured by TMCC; provided, however, that if TMCC elects to exercise such rights with respect to any Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(c), it shall be obligated to replace all Lenders that have made similar requests for compensation pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.4. The applicable Borrower shall (y) pay in full all principal, accrued interest, accrued fees and other amounts owing to such Lender through the date of replacement (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.5) and (z) release such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans.

 

Section 9.18 Governing Law.

 

(a)       THIS AGREEMENT SHALL, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, the LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State; PROVIDED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE Agent AND EACH LENDER SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.
