SECTION 2: AMOUNT AND TERMS OF ADVANCES
2.1 Commitment: Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Bank agrees
to extend credit to the Company by making loans (each such loan being
hereinafter called an "Advance" and, collectively, "Advances") to the Company
from time to time during the Commitment Period up to an aggregate principal
amount outstanding at any one time of Three Million and 00/100 ($3,000,000.00)
Dollars (the "Commitment"). During the Commitment Period, the Company may use
the Commitment by borrowing, paying and prepaying in whole or in part and
reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Each
Advance shall be in the principal amount of One Hundred Thousand and 00/100
($100,000.00) Dollars or an integral multiple thereof.
2.2 Revolving Credit Note: The Advances made by the Bank pursuant to
Section 2.1 hereof shall be evidenced by a promissory note of the Company,
payable to the order of the Bank, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto
(the "Revolving Credit Note"), representing the obligation of the Company to pay
the amount of the Commitment or, if less, the aggregate unpaid amount of all
Advances plus interest thereon as provided in Section 2.7 hereof. The Revolving
Credit Note shall be dated the date hereof and shall be payable to the order of
the Bank on the Termination Date. The date and amount of each Advance, and the
date and amount of each payment of principal on account thereof, shall be
recorded by the Bank at the time of such Advance or payment on the schedule
annexed to and constituting a part of the Note. The aggregate unpaid amount of
Advances set forth in such schedule shall be presumed to be the principal amount
owing and unpaid thereon; provided, however, that the failure of the Bank to
record such information on such schedule shall not in any way affect the
obligation of the Company to pay any amount due under the Revolving Credit Note.
2.3 Notice of Advances: Each request for an Advance whether a LIBOR
Borrowing Request or a Prime Borrowing Request shall be made on a Business Day
no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) in writing (including by facsimile
transmission) or orally by telephone directed to the office of the Bank located
at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000. Each such oral request shall
be confirmed not later than one (1) Business Day thereafter in writing
(including by facsimile transmission). The Company may not make a LIBOR
Borrowing Request if the requested LIBOR Rate Advance would have an expiration
date later than the Termination Date. The Bank shall make the funds for each
Advance so requested available at such office in immediately available funds by
the close of business on the Business Day of such request.
2.4 Cancellation and Reduction of Commitment: The Commitment may be
canceled or reduced by the Company at any time and from time to time prior to
the Termination Date in whole or in part, in amounts of One Hundred Thousand and
00/100 ($100,000.00) Dollars or multiples thereof on one (1) Business Day prior
written notice thereof to the Bank; provided, however, that no such cancellation
or reduction shall be effective to the extent that it would reduce the
Commitment to an amount less than the aggregate unpaid amount of the Advances as
of the date of reduction unless such excess unpaid amount is simultaneously
prepaid. The Commitment, or part thereof, so reduced or canceled shall not be
reinstated.
2.5 Commitment Fee: The Company agrees to pay to the Bank a commitment fee
on the average daily unused portion of the Commitment from the date hereof until
the Termination Date, as such Commitment may have been reduced pursuant to
Section 2.4 hereof, at the rate of one quarter of one (1/4%) percent per annum,
payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each March, June, September and
December commencing June 1, 1997 to and including the Termination Date.
2.6 Increase in Costs or Reduced Return Resulting from Capital Adequacy
Requirements: If any law, regulation or guideline or any change therein or
interpretation or application thereof by any regulatory body, court,
administrative or governmental authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance with any request, directive, ruling,
decree, judgment or recommendation of any regulatory body, court, administrative
or governmental authority now existing or hereafter adopted (whether or not
having the force of law) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital
adequacy, increased capital adequacy or similar requirement and the result is to
increase the cost of, or reduce the rate of return on, the Bank's (or the Bank
affiliate's or participant's) capital as a consequence of its obligations
hereunder, the Bank shall notify the Company of such fact. The Company and the
Bank shall thereafter in good faith negotiate an adjustment to the fees payable
hereunder which, in the reasonable judgment of the Company and the Bank, will
adequately compensate the Bank (or the Bank affiliate or participant) in light
of these circumstances. In the event that the Company and the Bank are unable to
agree on such adjustment within thirty (30) days after the date on which the
Bank sends such notice to the Company, the Company shall on the later of such
30th day after notice or the date such increased cost or reduced return takes
effect, unless otherwise agreed to by the Bank (or the Bank affiliate or
participant), prepay all Advances and terminate the Commitment on the 30th day.
2.7 Interest on the Revolving Credit Note: a) The Revolving Credit Note
shall bear interest on the unpaid principal balance thereof at a rate per annum
equal to (i) with respect to Prime Rate Advances, the Prime Rate and (ii) with
respect to LIBOR Rate Advances, the Adjusted LIBOR Rate. For Prime Rate Advances
the interest rate shall change when and as the Prime Rate is changed, and any
such change in such Prime Rate shall become effective on the day on which such
change is adopted.
b) Interest accrued on each Advance shall be payable, without duplication,
on:
(i) with respect to any portion of any Advance repaid or prepaid
pursuant to this Agreement, the date of such repayment or prepayment, as
the case may be;
(ii) with respect to that portion of the outstanding principal amount
of all Advances maintained as Prime Rate Advances, the first day of each
month, commencing with the first such date following the date of the making
of such Advances;
(iii) with respect to that portion of the outstanding principal amount
of all Advances maintained as LIBOR Rate Advances, the last day of each
applicable LIBOR Period;
(iv) with respect to that portion of the outstanding principal amount
of all Advances converted into Prime Rate Advances on a day when interest
would not otherwise have been payable pursuant to Sections 2.7(b)(ii) or
(iii), the date of such conversion; and
(v) on the Termination Date.
c) If all or a portion of the principal or interest of any Advance shall
not be paid when due (whether at the stated or any accelerated maturity of such
Advance) or if any fee or other amount due hereunder shall not be paid when due,
all Advances, and such interest, fee or amount due hereunder, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, shall bear interest (payable on demand, and in any
event on the last day of each month, and computed daily on the basis of a
360-day year for actual days elapsed) (i) with respect to Prime Rate Advances,
at the Default Rate until paid and (ii) in the case of LIBOR Rate Advances at a
rate which shall be the greater of the Default Rate or two percent (2%) per
annum in excess of the rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Advance until the
expiration of the LIBOR Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Advance, at which
time the LIBOR Rate Advance will automatically be converted into a Prime Rate
Advance and until paid shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
d) Ntwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the
rate of interest payable on the Revolving Credit Note shall never exceed the
maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law. If at any time the rate
of interest otherwise prescribed herein shall exceed such maximum rate, then,
ipso facto, the obligation of the Company to pay interest or perform such act or
requirement shall be reduced to the limit authorized under such law, so that in
no event shall the Company be obligated to pay any interest, perform any act or
be bound by any requirement which would result in payment of interest in excess
of an amount which is lawfully collectible. All sums in excess of those lawfully
collectible as interest shall, without further agreement or notice between or by
any party hereto, be deemed applied to principal immediately upon receipt of
such monies by the Bank, with the same force and effect as though the Bank had
specifically designated such amount to be so applied to principal.
2.8 Optional Prepayments: The Company may at its option at any time or from
time to time prepay an Advance in whole or in part, without premium or penalty
but subject to the indemnity provisions of Section 2.11 hereof with respect to
LIBOR Rate Advances, upon at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice
to the Bank specifying the date and the amount of prepayment. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company may not prepay a LIBOR Rate Advance prior to the last
day of the LIBOR Period. Partial prepayments shall be in the amount of One
Hundred Thousand and 00/100 ($100,000.00) Dollars or an integral multiple
thereof and each prepayment shall be made together with interest accrued thereon
to and including the date of prepayment.
2.9 Alternate Rate of Interest: If (i) by reason of any Regulatory Change,
the Bank determines that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London
interbank market generally, adequate and fair means do not or will not exist for
determining the LIBOR Rate, (ii) by reason of any Regulatory Change, the Bank
becomes restricted in the amount which it may hold of a category of liabilities
which includes deposits by reference to the LIBOR Rate or a category of assets
which includes loans which bear interest at a rate determined in part by
reference to the LIBOR Rate, (iii) by reason of any Regulatory Change, it shall
be unlawful for the Bank to maintain a LIBOR Rate Advance, or any portion
thereof, bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, (iv) in the exclusive
judgment of the Bank, deposits are not available to the Bank in the
international interbank market in the requisite amounts and for the requisite
durations, (v) in the exclusive judgment of the Bank, the Adjusted LIBOR Rate
does not adequately reflect the cost to the Bank of making or maintaining a
LIBOR Rate Advance then, in any such case, any LIBOR Rate Advance shall bear
interest at the Prime Rate. If the Bank determines that because of a change in
circumstances the Adjusted LIBOR Rate is again available to the Company
hereunder, the Bank will also advise the Company, and the Company may convert
the rate of interest payable hereunder to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate at any time
(provided the Adjusted LIBOR Rate is otherwise available hereunder) by making
such election in accordance with, and subject to the conditions of, this
Agreement.
2.10 Increased Costs: If, at any time, any Regulatory Change: (i) shall
subject the Bank to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to this
Agreement, except an income tax, based upon the charging and collecting of
interest hereunder at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or shall change the basis of
taxation or payments to the Bank of the principal of or interest on the LIBOR
Rate Advances, (ii) shall result in the imposition, modification or deemed
applicability of any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements against
assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Bank;
(iii) shall, because of the existence of this Agreement, affect the amount of
capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank, or any corporation
controlling the Bank; or (iv) shall impose on the Bank or the London interbank
market any other condition affecting this Agreement or the charging and
collecting of interest hereunder at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate and the result of
any of the foregoing is, in the Bank's reasonable judgment, (a) to increase the
cost to the Bank of charging and collecting interest hereunder at the Adjusted
LIBOR Rate, or (b) to reduce the return on the Bank's capital or the amount of
any sum received or receivable by the Bank under this Agreement by an amount
deemed by the Bank to be material, upon demand then, by the Bank, the Company
agrees to pay to the Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
the Bank for such increased cost or reduction or, upon receipt of such demand,
request in writing that such Advance be converted to a Prime Rate Advance. Such
payments shall be made on the first date for payment of interest hereunder
following the date of the demand by the Bank and on each such payment date
thereafter or shall be paid promptly on demand if the Borrower is not advised of
the amount of such payment prior to any such payment date. Determinations by the
Bank for purposes of this paragraph of the effect of any Regulatory Change on
its costs of making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Advances and of the additional
amounts required to compensate the Bank in respect thereof, shall be conclusive
absent manifest error in calculation, provided that such determinations are made
in good faith.
2.11 Indemnity: If there is a prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Advance on a
date other than the expiration of the LIBOR Period for any reason whatsoever
including, but not limited to:
a) the occurrence of any Event of Default under this Agreement;
b) the failure of the Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Rate Advance after
sending notice of the amount with respect to the making of any such
Advance;
c) the receipt or recovery by the Bank of all or any part of a LIBOR
Rate Advance prior to the maturity or the last day of the LIBOR Period
thereof (whether by prepayment, acceleration or otherwise) unless due
solely to the conversion of a LIBOR Rate Advance into a Prime Rate Advance
pursuant to Section 2.9 or 2.10 hereof; or
d) the conversion at the Company's request, prior to the last day of
an applicable LIBOR Period, of a LIBOR Rate Advance into a Prime Rate
Advance;
than the Company shall pay to the Bank, as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, a fee (the "Liquidation Fee") equal to the losses (including but not
limited to, lost profits of the Bank), costs and expenses of the Bank in
connection with such prepayment as determined by the Bank, which payment shall
be made by the Company to the Bank on the date on which such prepayment is made.
The calculations made by the Bank to ascertain such Liquidation Fee shall be
conclusive absent manifest error in calculation by the Bank, provided that such
calculations are made in good faith. The Bank, upon the written request of the
Company, shall advise the Company in writing of the amount of the Liquidation
Fee applicable to any such prepayment including an explanation of how the
Liquidation Fee was calculated.
2.12 Continuation and Conversion of Advances. The Company shall have the
right at any time on prior irrevocable written notice to the Bank as specified
in Section 2.3 to continue any LIBOR Rate Advance into a subsequent LIBOR
Period, (ii) to convert any LIBOR Rate Advance into a Prime Rate Advance, and
(iii) to convert any Prime Rate Advance into a LIBOR Rate Advance, subject to
the following:
(a) in the case of a conversion of less than all of the outstanding
Advances, the aggregate principal amount of Advances converted shall not be
less than $100,000 and shall be an integral multiple thereof; and
(b) no LIBOR Rate Advance shall be converted at any time other than at
the end of a LIBOR Period applicable thereto.
The Company directs the Bank to continue a LIBOR Rate Advance into a subsequent
LIBOR Period, on the last day of the LIBOR Period thereof without any further
notice from the Company unless the Company specifies in writing in accordance
with Section 2.3 that such Advance shall be converted into a Prime Rate Advance.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, if a Default or an
Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, no LIBOR Rate may be
continued into a subsequent LIBOR Period and no Prime Rate Advance may be
converted into a LIBOR Rate Advance.
2.13 Balance Shortfall Fee: The Company shall pay a balance shortfall fee
for the preceding calendar quarter commencing June 1, 1997 at a rate per annum
equal to the monthly average 91 day treasury xxxx rate in effect for the quarter
multiplied by the average daily difference between $50,000 and the amount of
aggregate free balances maintained by the Consolidated Group at the Bank for the
quarter. Free balances shall mean balances in non-interest bearing accounts
maintained by the Company or a Guarantor in excess of the amounts required to
compensate the Bank for services rendered, determined in accordance with the
Bank's standard system of analysis for similar accounts. Nothing contained
herein shall require the Consolidated Group to maintain balances.
2.14 Payments: The Company authorizes the Bank to charge its account
maintained at the Bank for each payment of principal or interest due under the
Revolving Credit Note or otherwise under this Agreement on the due date thereof.
If any payment of the Revolving Credit Note or otherwise under this Agreement
becomes due and payable on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the laws of
the State of New York, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable during such
extension.
2.15 Use of Proceeds: The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the
proceeds of (y) the initial Advance will be used to repay indebtedness to the
Bank under the existing revolving credit facility with the Bank dated as of
April 20, 1995 and (z) subsequent Advances will be used to carry projected
increases in accounts receivable due to growth and to support computer hardware
purchases and software development costs. No part of the proceeds of the
Advances will be used directly or indirectly to finance the acquisition of new
companies, including without limitation, Permitted Acquisitions, as defined in
Section 6.2 hereof, or new products or for any purpose that directly or
indirectly violates, or is inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation U or
X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time
to time hereafter in effect.
2.16 Computations: Interest on the Advances and any other amounts payable
hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360)
days for actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last)
occurring in the period for which payable.
