THE COMMITMENTS AND THE BORROWING
SECTION 2.01. The Loans.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make one or more loans (each such loan, a “Loan”) to the Borrower, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an amount not to exceed the Lender’s Commitment. The parties acknowledge that prior to the date hereof, the Initial Lenders, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Original Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement), made advances to the Borrower in an amount set forth opposite such Initial Lender’s name
under the caption “Original Loan” (such amounts, the “Original Loans”). Each such Original Loan shall be deemed to be a Loan from and after the Closing Date. Within the limits set forth above and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees that the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and re- borrow the Loans (including any Original Loans) until the Maturity Date.
SECTION 2.02. Borrowing of Loans.
(a) Borrower Notice. Each Borrowing shall be made upon delivery by the Borrower of a written Loan Notice (which notice shall be irrevocable), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, to the Administrative Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the requested date of such Borrowing. The Loan Notice shall specify the requested date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the Borrowing and the requested duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period in the relevant Loan Notice, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of three (3) months. The Loans shall be made as LIBO Rate Loans with an initial Interest Period commencing on the Funding Date of such Loan and ending on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period thereafter. Other than with respect to the final Borrowing for the then undrawn and available Commitments, no Borrowing shall be less than US$100,000,000 or an integral multiple of US$10,000,000 in excess thereof.
(b) Administrative Agent Notice and Funding. Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the date and its Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Account not later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) on the Business Day specified in the Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02, the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by crediting the accounts specified by the Borrower in the Loan Notice.
(c) Interest Rate Notice. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for LIBO Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the LIBO Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If any Base Rate Loans are outstanding during any Quarterly Period, the Administrative Agent shall, on the Quarterly Date at the end of such Quarterly Period, notify the Borrower and the Lenders in writing of the Base Rate or Base Rates in effect during such Quarterly Period.
SECTION 2.03. Termination and Reductions of Commitments.
(a) The Commitments shall be automatically and permanently terminated in full on the last day of the Availability Period.
(b) Optional. The Borrower, at its sole discretion, may at any time terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Commitments; provided, that each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount not less than US$5,000,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under this Section 2.03 at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon Incurrence of Additional Debt or other contingent event to the extent permitted under this Agreement, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent.
(c) Mandatory. The Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced upon the making of (i) a voluntary prepayment with the proceeds of Refinancing Debt pursuant to Section 2.06(a), and (ii) any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.06(b), in each case, in the amount of such prepayment.

SECTION 2.04. Repayment of Loans; Maturity Extension.
(a) Repayment of Loans.
(i) The Borrower shall, and (without releasing the Borrower of its Obligations hereunder in respect of such Loans) the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally instructs the Lender Trust Trustee to apply funds in the Lender Trust Accounts in accordance with this Agreement and the Lender Trust to, repay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding on the Maturity Date.

(i) From and after the fourth (4th) anniversary of the Closing Date, but no later than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the Initial Maturity Date, the Borrower may request an extension, in respect of all or a portion of the Outstanding Amount at the time of the request, of the Initial Maturity Date for one
(1) or two (2) additional years, by notice to the Administrative Agent (the “Maturity Extension Request”). The Maturity Extension Request shall specify the term of, the proposed applicable margin for and the Outstanding Amount subject
to, the extension. The Administrative Agent shall, following its receipt of a Maturity Extension Request, promptly (but in any event within two (2) Business Days) notify each Lender of such request. Each Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to agree to such extension with respect to such Xxxxxx’x Commitment and Loans (each, an “Extending Lender”), by delivery of a notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a “Maturity Extension Confirmation”), within twenty (20) days after being notified by the Administrative Agent of the Maturity Extension Request. By signing and delivering a Maturity Extension Confirmation, each such Extending Lender shall irrevocably commit to the extension in respect of its Commitment and Loans, subject only to payment of the Extension Fee to such Extending Lender on or prior to the earlier of (A) sixty (60) days after the date on which the Borrower receives a Maturity Extension Confirmation from such Extending Lender and (B) the date that is twenty (20) days prior to the Initial Maturity Date. Any Lender who fails to deliver the Maturity Extension Confirmation to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower within such twenty (20) days shall be deemed to have not agreed to the Maturity Extension Request and shall be a “Non-Extending Lender”.
(ii) Non-Extending Lenders shall not be obligated to participate in the making of any Loan under the Facility past the Availability Period with respect to such Non-Extending Lender. The Commitment of each Non-Extending Lender shall automatically be cancelled and reduced to zero on the Initial Maturity Date, and such Non-Extending Party shall then cease to be a party under this Agreement.
(iii) On the Initial Maturity Date, the Borrower shall, and (without releasing the Borrower of its Obligations hereunder in respect of such Loans) the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally instructs the Lender Trust Trustee to apply funds in the Lender Trust Accounts in accordance with this Agreement and the Lender Trust to, repay to the Administrative Agent, (a) for the ratable account of the Non-Extending Lenders, the aggregate principal amount of the Non-Extending Lenders’ Loans outstanding on the Initial Maturity Date, and
(b) for the ratable account of the Extending Lenders, the aggregate principal amount of any portion of the Extending Lenders’ Loans outstanding on the Initial Maturity Date not otherwise extended pursuant to this Section 2.04(b). The portion of the Commitment of each Extending Lender not otherwise extended pursuant to this Section 2.04(b) shall automatically be cancelled on the Initial Maturity Date.
(iv) This Section 2.04 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.11 or Section 14.01 to the contrary.
SECTION 2.05. Interest.
(a) Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.05(b), the Borrower shall pay and (without releasing the Borrower of its Obligations hereunder) the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally instructs the Lender Trust Trustee to apply funds in the Lender Trust Accounts in accordance with this Agreement and the Lender Trust, to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the Funding Date thereof until
such principal amount shall be paid in full (i) during such periods as such Loan is a LIBO Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin.
(b) Default Interest.
(i) If any principal, interest (to the extent permitted under Applicable Law), fee or other amount payable by the Borrower in respect of any Loan or any Facility Swap Contract is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the lesser of the Default Rate and the Maximum Rate.
(ii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law) shall be due and payable upon demand.
(c) Interest Due Dates. Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable on each Quarterly Date and at such other times as may be specified herein; provided, that in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment pursuant to Section 2.06. 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 Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Borrower.
SECTION 2.06. Prepayments.

Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender and the Lender Trust Trustee of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Xxxxxx’x Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall (A) make such prepayment or (B) cause the Lender Trust Trustee to make such prepayment from funds on deposit in or credited to the Lender Trust Accounts; provided that (I) to the extent that the Borrower makes any such voluntary prepayment with the proceeds of any Refinancing Debt, such voluntary prepayment shall be applied, until the Facility Discharge Date, to prepay the Secured Facility Obligations and reduce the Commitments hereunder, before prepaying any Additional Debt, and (II) to the extent that the Borrower makes any such voluntary prepayment with the proceeds of a Restricted Payment made in

If such Updated Financial Model demonstrates that the Projected Debt Service Coverage Ratio calculated on the basis of the Projected Passenger Traffic set forth in such Updated Traffic Report is equal to or higher than the Required Debt Service Coverage Ratio, the obligation of the Borrower to make any further mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), as the case may be, shall immediately cease.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) at the rate of 33.33% of the Applicable Margin per annum on the average daily unutilized Commitment of such Lender. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending on the last day of the Availability Period, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Date occurring during the Availability Period and on the last day of the Availability Period.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Extending Lender, an extension fee (an “Extension Fee”) equal to 0.20% per annum on an amount equal to the portion of the Outstanding Amount extended by such Lender for each year of extension of the Initial Maturity Date pursuant to Section 2.04(b). The Extension Fee shall be due and payable on or prior to the earlier of (A) sixty (60) days after the date on which the Borrower receives a Maturity Extension Confirmation from such Extending Lender and (B) the date that is twenty (20) days prior to the Initial Maturity Date.
SECTION 2.08. Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of (a) interest for Base Rate Loans and (b) fees, shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All computations of interest for LIBO Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan

Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.09. Evidence of Indebtedness.
(a) Accounts and Records. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts or records evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall make entries in the Register recording (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder; (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder; and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Xxxxxx’x Pro Rata Share thereof. At the Borrower’s request the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower within ten (10) days after the end of each Fiscal Quarter a copy of the record of the Loans outstanding and of any other entry in the Register, provided that the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to deliver such records and any failure to so deliver such records shall not, in any way, result in any liability to the Administrative Agent or release the Borrower from its obligation to pay any amounts then due and payable. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Xxxxxx and the entries made in the Register by the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the entries made by the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.
(b) Notes.
(i) The Borrower agrees that, in addition to such accounts or records set forth in Section 2.09(a), to evidence its obligation to repay each Loan made hereunder, with interest accrued thereon, it shall issue and deliver to the Administrative Agent on each Funding Date a Note payable to each Lender requesting a Note, each such Note being in the principal amount of the Loan made by each Lender on each Funding Date. At the request of any Lender, the Borrower shall issue to such Lender and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Note evidencing the aggregate principal amount of all Loans made by such Lender; provided that, simultaneously with the delivery by the Borrower of such Note, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Lender, shall cancel and promptly return to the Borrower all prior Note or Notes evidencing Loans of such Lender.
(ii) At any time after the delivery of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.09(b)(i), in the event that any Lender’s Loan is converted pursuant to Section 3.02 or Section 3.03 to a Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall issue to such Lender and deliver to the Administrative Agent on the date when such conversion becomes effective a Note evidencing such Base Rate Loan ; provided
that, simultaneously with such delivery by the Borrower of such Note, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Lender, shall cancel and promptly return to the Borrower the Note evidencing the LIBO Rate Loan of such Lender. If, at any time after the delivery of any such Note evidencing the Base Rate Loan, the LIBO Rate again becomes applicable to such Lender’s Loan, the Borrower shall issue to such Lender and deliver to the Administrative Agent, on the date when the LIBO Rate becomes applicable, a new Note evidencing the LIBO Rate, provided that, simultaneously with such delivery by the Borrower of such new Note, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Lender, shall cancel and promptly return to the Borrower the Note then evidencing the Base Rate Loans of such Lender.
(iii) At any time after the delivery of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.09(b)(i), if a Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities (or if the LIBO Rate Reserve Percentage applicable thereto shall, thereafter, be changed) in respect of its Loan, the Borrower shall issue to such Lender and deliver to the Administrative Agent upon written request (which request shall be accompanied by copies of all documents providing reasonable evidence of the requirement to maintain such reserves) of any Lender required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, a Note evidencing a LIBO Rate applicable to such Loan equal to the LIBO Rate applicable from time to time thereafter divided by an amount equal to (A) one (1) minus (B) the LIBO Rate Reserve Percentage then in effect; provided that, simultaneously with such delivery by the Borrower of such Note, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Lender, shall cancel and promptly return to the Borrower the existing Note of such Lender.
(iv) In the event that any amount hereunder or under any Note is not paid by the Borrower when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), the Administrative Agent or any Lender may take all such actions as it sees fit to recover such amount, including the commencement and maintenance of proceedings in the State of New York, United States of America, or in Mexico in respect of its Note, or simultaneous commencement and maintenance of proceedings in the State of New York, United States of America, and in Mexico in respect of its Note as the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.
(v) The payment of any part of the principal of any such Note shall discharge the obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement to pay principal of the Loan evidenced by such Note pro tanto, and the payment of any principal of a Loan in accordance with the terms hereof shall discharge the obligations of the Borrower under the Note evidencing such Loan pro tanto. Notwithstanding the discharge in full of any Note, (A) if the amount paid or payable under any such Note (whether arising from the enforcement thereof in Mexico or otherwise) is less than the amount due and payable in accordance with this Agreement with respect to the Loan evidenced by such Note, the Borrower agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent upon its receipt of written demand such difference and
(B) if the amount paid or payable under any such Note (whether arising from the enforcement thereof in Mexico or otherwise) exceeds the amount due and payable in accordance with this Agreement with respect to the Loan evidenced by such Note, each Lender that has received any amounts under such Notes in excess of the amounts due to such Xxxxxx hereunder agrees to pay such excess to the Borrower upon its receipt of written demand.
(vi) Upon discharge of all obligations of the Borrower under the Loans evidenced by a Note or Notes, the Lender holding such Note or Notes or the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender, as the case may be, shall cancel such Note or Notes and promptly return it or them to the Borrower.
(c) Effect of Register Entries. Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.09(a), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 2.10. Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.
(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or set-off (except as otherwise expressly provided pursuant to Section 3.01(a)). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Account in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) on the date specified herein. The Administrative 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 after 12:00 p.m. (noon) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.
(b) Funding by Lenders; Payments by Xxxxxxxx; Assumption by Administrative Agent.
(i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of each Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Xxxxxx’x share of the
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 and may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at
(A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, an interest rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(iii) A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this clause (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for the Loan to be made by such Xxxxxx as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to a Borrowing set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the
Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
(d) Obligations of Lenders and Agents Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 14.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make payments pursuant to Section 14.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender nor the Administrative Agent of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or make payments pursuant to Section 14.04(c) on any date required hereunder. The obligations of each Agent hereunder and under the Loan Documents to which it is a party are several and not joint. No Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Agent to perform its obligations.
(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain 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 funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.
(f) Authorization. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law and subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender is not made when due hereunder or, in the case of a Lender, under the Note held by such Xxxxxx, to charge from time to time against any or all of the Borrower’s accounts with such Lender any amount so due.
(g) Insufficient Payment. Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Agents and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Agents and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 12.05. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Secured Facility Obligations of the Borrower under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Xxxxxx’x Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of all Loans outstanding at such time, in repayment, prepayment or payment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Secured Facility Obligations then owing to such Lender.
SECTION 2.11. Sharing of Payments by Xxxxxxx. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on the Loan made by it resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loan and accrued interest thereon greater than its ratable share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the
benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that:
(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
(ii) the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower or Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall apply).
SECTION 2.12. Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:
(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Xxxxxx’x right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lender”.
(ii) 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 XII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 14.08 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 and any other Agent hereunder; Second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Prospective Event of Default or Event of Default exists), 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; Third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the 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; Fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; Fifth, so long as no Prospective Event of Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of
any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and Sixth, 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 4.01 and Section 4.02 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 are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder.
(iii) Certain Fees. Defaulting Lenders shall not be entitled to receive any fees pursuant to the Loan Documents for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto in writing, 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 to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, 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 Borrower while that Xxxxxx 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 Xxxxxx’x having been a Defaulting Lender.
ARTICLE III
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
SECTION 3.01. Taxes.
(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation of the Borrower and the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes. If, however, Applicable Law requires the Borrower, or either the Administrative Agent or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, to withhold or deduct any Tax (as determined in good faith by the Borrower), such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such Applicable Law. Nothing in this Section 3.01 is intended to preclude the Borrower, or either the
Administrative Agent or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, from satisfying any withholding obligations they may have with respect to payments by the Borrower, or either the Administrative Agent or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, hereunder. If the Borrower, or either the Administrative Agent or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, shall be required by Applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the Borrower, or either the Administrative Agent or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, as applicable, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Borrower to be required, (ii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, and (iii) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower shall be increased by such additional amounts (collectively, the “Additional Amounts”), as necessary so that after such required withholding or the making of such required deductions (including withholding and deductions for Indemnified Taxes applicable to Additional Amounts payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. For the avoidance of doubt, consistent with Section 3.04(f), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any Additional Amounts in respect of any amounts that the Borrower may be required to deduct or withhold under FATCA from any payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document.
(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of clause (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.
(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within twenty (20) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) paid by such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrower shall not be required to pay to any Recipient, or indemnify such Recipient, with respect to, any amounts described in this Section 3.01 in respect of any portion of Taxes (including any Additional Amounts) that would not have been imposed but for the failure of such Lender (or in respect of any Lender acting through any branch or agency, the principal office of such Lender) to comply with or satisfy the Tax Eligibility Requirements.
(d) Evidence of Payments. Within thirty (30) days after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such
payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(e) Status of Lenders.
(i) Each Foreign Lender, through the Administrative Agent, shall provide the Borrower a Certificate of Beneficial Ownership (and if such certificate becomes inaccurate in any material respect, shall provide a new Certificate of Beneficial Ownership within a reasonable amount of time thereafter, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the next succeeding Quarterly Date) and use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document or to furnish any information as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, pursuant to any Applicable Laws (including, with respect to each Initial Lender which is a Foreign Lender, a Certificate of Residency within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date but, in any event, no later than the first Quarterly Date after the Closing Date) to the extent necessary for such Foreign Lender to qualify for the Reduced Rate, provided that such Foreign Lender shall be under no obligation to provide any information to the Borrower which such Foreign Lender deems, in such Foreign Lender’s sole reasonable judgment, to be confidential.
(ii) If any Foreign Lender shall cease to comply with the Tax Eligibility Requirements, it shall within ten (10) Business Days thereafter (and, in any event, prior to the next succeeding Quarterly Date) notify the Borrower thereof in writing through the Administrative Agent.
(iii) If a Foreign Lender does not notify the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, pursuant to clause (ii) above, and Excess Amounts or any fees, interests, penalties or costs in respect of such Excess Amounts (collectively, the “Relevant Amount”) with respect to such Foreign Lender are subsequently due and payable or assessed against the Borrower by the SHCP, such Foreign Lender agrees that the Borrower or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, as applicable, may deduct such Relevant Amount from subsequent payments made to or for the account of such Foreign Lender by the Borrower or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, as applicable; provided, however, that the Borrower shall furnish such Foreign Lender, by delivery to the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) Business Days of the Borrower’s payment of such Relevant Amount to the SHCP or within thirty (30) days of the deduction in respect of such Relevant Amount (whichever is the earlier), of (A) notice in an itemized format indicating: (I) the amount already deducted or the amount to be deducted against such Foreign Lender’s next succeeding payment, and to the extent the Relevant Amount exceeds the aggregate of the amount previously deducted and the amount of such Foreign Lender’s next succeeding payment, the Borrower or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, as applicable, may deduct such excess amount from such Foreign Lender’s following succeeding payment, until such excess amount to be deducted by the Borrower or
the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, as applicable, from such Foreign Lender’s payment equals zero and (II) the composition of the Relevant Amount, calculated in good faith by the Borrower being deducted by the Borrower or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, as applicable, from such Foreign Lender’s payment, including the amount of any additional withholding taxes due by such Foreign Lender and, if applicable, the amount of any fees, interests, penalties or costs assessed by SHCP in respect of such Foreign Lender, (B) a copy of the assessment of the applicable Relevant Amount by the SHCP on the Borrower, if applicable, or other evidence of the Borrower’s obligation to pay such Relevant Amount; and (C) the receipt or other documents evidencing payment of the Relevant Amount by the Borrower or the Lender Trust Trustee on behalf of the Borrower, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Foreign Lender disputes the amount of Relevant Amounts deducted or to be deducted by the Borrower against any payments to such Foreign Lender under this Section 3.01(e)(iii), such Lender may deliver to the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of the notice by the Borrower, a letter of explanation specifying its reasons for its disagreement with the Relevant Amounts assessed. To the extent that such Foreign Xxxxxx’x letter of explanation identifies a manifest error in the calculation by the Borrower of any Relevant Amounts deducted against such payments made to such Lender, the Borrower hereby agrees to promptly reimburse such amounts to the extent such amounts were previously deducted.
(iv) Upon the reasonable request of such Foreign Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Foreign Lender with a view to obtaining a refund from the SHCP of any Relevant Amounts which are determined by such Foreign Lender not to have been correctly or legally imposed by the SHCP in respect of such Foreign Lender; provided, however, that the Borrower provides no guarantee that such refund shall be obtained.
(v) Each Lender hereby represents that it, or the beneficial owner of all interest payments made to it hereunder, is (A) a Mexican Bank or (B)(i) a resident for tax purposes, or a branch or agency of a financial institution that is a resident for tax purposes, of a country with which Mexico has entered into a treaty that is in effect for the avoidance of double taxation and (ii) is eligible to receive the benefits of such treaty.
(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Each Recipient shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain in a timely fashion any refund as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid Additional Amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01. If any Recipient receives any such refund, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or Additional Amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of- pocket expenses of such Recipient, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);
provided that the Borrower, upon the request of such Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Recipient in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This clause (f) shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person or to attempt to obtain any such refund which attempt would be inconsistent with any reporting position otherwise taken by the Recipient on its applicable tax returns.
(g) Tax Affairs. Notwithstanding any provision herein, it is understood and agreed that nothing in Section 3.01(e) or Section 3.01(f) shall interfere with the rights of any Lender to conduct its fiscal or tax affairs in such a manner as it deems fit.
SECTION 3.02. Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBO Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank eurodollar market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended and (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall have the option to (and shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the option selected by the Borrower (which notice shall be irrevocable) promptly after notification of such illegality by the Administrative Agent) to any of the following: (i) convert the LIBO Rate Loan of such Lender to a Base Rate Loan, (ii) replace such Lender pursuant to Section 14.15 or (iii) prepay the LIBO Rate Loan of such Lender with accrued interest thereon, in each case, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Loan to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Loan to such day. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
SECTION 3.03. Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a LIBO Rate Loan or continuation thereof that
(a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to xxxxx in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBO Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBO Rate Loan or in connection with an existing Base Rate Loan, or (c) the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBO Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, such Required Lenders will promptly so notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify (a “Rate Determination Notice”) the Borrower and each Lender, and,
(i) during the 30-day period next succeeding the date of delivery of such Rate Determination Notice (the “Negotiation Period”), the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Lenders) and the Borrower will negotiate in good faith for the purpose of agreeing upon an alternative, mutually acceptable basis (the “Substitute Basis”) for determining the rate of interest to be applicable to the LIBO Rate Loans for such Interest Period; (ii) if at the expiry of the Negotiation Period, the Required Lenders and the Borrower have agreed upon a Substitute Basis, then the LIBO Rate Loans will accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the Substitute Basis in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Loans until the circumstances giving rise to such Rate Determination Notice have ceased to apply and such substitute rate shall be retroactive to, and take effect from, the beginning of such Interest Period; (iii) if, at the expiry of the Negotiation Period, a Substitute Basis shall not have been agreed upon as aforesaid, all LIBO Rate Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans accruing interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate (determined without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate) plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Base Rate Loans, until the circumstances giving rise to such Rate Determination Notice have ceased to apply and such substitute rate shall be retroactive to, and take effect from, the beginning of such Interest Period.
SECTION 3.04. Increased Costs; Reserves on LIBO Rate Loans.
(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:
(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Recipient (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e));
(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) or (c) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, (C) Connection Income Taxes, and (D) Other Taxes) in connection with this Agreement; or
(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or the Loans made by such Recipient;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Recipient, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Recipient, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) Capital Requirements. If any Recipient determines that any Change in Law affecting such Recipient or any Lending Office of such Recipient’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Recipient’s capital or on the capital of such Recipient’s holding
company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Recipient or the Loan made by such Recipient, to a level below that which such Recipient or such Recipient’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Recipient’s policies and the policies of such Recipient’s holding company, from time to time, with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Recipient such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Recipient or such Recipient’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Recipient setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Recipient or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 3.04 and delivered to the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Recipient the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.
(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Recipient to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Recipient’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Recipient pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Recipient notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Recipient’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
(e) Reserves on LIBO Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay to each Recipient, as long as such Recipient shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBO Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Recipient (as determined by such Recipient in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each Quarterly Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be; provided that the Borrower shall have received from the Recipient, through the Administrative Agent, at least ten (10) days’ written prior notice (which notice shall be accompanied by copies of all documents providing reasonable evidence of the requirement to maintain such reserves) of such additional interest from such Recipient. If a Recipient fails to give notice ten (10) days prior to the relevant Quarterly Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice.
(f) FATCA. If a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower 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 the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, should any amounts be required to be deducted or withheld under FATCA from any payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document, the Borrower shall have no obligation to pay such Recipient any such amounts (including any Additional Amounts) to compensate such Recipient for the deduction or withholding. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.04(f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
SECTION 3.05. Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the 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:
(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan 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); or
(b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Recipient to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Base Rate Loan) on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower (including as a result of the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 or Section 4.02 to be satisfied); or
(c) any assignment of a LIBO Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.06(b);
including any loss or expense (but excluding loss of anticipated profit) 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. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Recipient in connection with the foregoing.
For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to any Recipient under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded the LIBO Rate Loan made by it at the LIBO Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBO Rate Loan was in fact so funded.
SECTION 3.06. Mitigation and Replacement.
(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, or if any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or any Additional Amounts to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, then, in each such case, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loan hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.
