Funding of Term Loans On the Effective Date, each Lender will make its Term Loan Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of Term Loans requested by the Borrowers available to the Administrative Agent by deposit, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, at the Administrative Agent's office at the Agency Services Address or at such other address as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing. The amount of the Term Loans will then be made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent by crediting the account of the Borrowers on the books of such office of the Administrative Agent, to the extent the amount of such Term Loans are made available to the Administrative Agent. All Term Loans made on the Effective Date shall be Base Rate Loans. Thereafter, all or any portion of the Term Loans may be converted into Eurodollar Loans in accordance with the terms of Section 2.1(d) and the definition of "Interest Period" set forth in Section 1.1. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure or delay by any other Lender in its obligation to make a Term Loan hereunder; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to fulfill its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of the Term Loans that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Term Loans to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has or will make the amount of its Term Loan available to the Administrative Agent on the Effective Date, and the Administrative Agent in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion but without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be able to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers, and the Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrowers, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrowers at the Adjusted Base Rate and (ii) from such Lender at the Federal Funds Rate if paid within two Business Days of the date of drawing and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate.
Making of Term Loans Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on the Effective Date, each Term Loan Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make a Term Loan denominated in Dollars to the Borrower in the aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. Upon a Lender’s funding of its Term Loan, the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender shall terminate, and all undrawn Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. Central time on the Effective Date.

Each Lender's Tranche B Term Loan Commitment shall expire immediately and without further action on March 31, 2002 if the Tranche B Term Loans have not been made on or before that date. Subject to subsection 2.1A(iv), Borrower may make only one borrowing under the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments. Amounts 35 borrowed under this subsection 2.1A(ii) and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
Extension of Term Loans The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans of a given Class (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche”) be amended to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Term Loans (any such Term Loans which have been so amended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche and (y) (except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, “AHYDO” payments, optional prepayments, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments, which shall be determined by the Borrower and the Extending Term Lenders and set forth in the relevant Term Loan Extension Request), be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable to the Extending Term Lenders than those applicable to the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Term Loan Extension Request (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Maturity Date of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans)) (as reasonably determined by the Borrower), including: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided, however, that at no time shall there be Classes of Term Loans hereunder (including Refinancing Term Loans and Extended Term Loans) which have more than three different Maturity Dates; (ii) the Effective Yield, pricing, optional redemptions and prepayment and “AHYDO” payments with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, OID or otherwise) may be different from the Effective Yield for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Maturity Date of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); and (iv) Extended Term Loans may have call protection as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof; provided that no Extended Term Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which all Term Loans with an earlier final stated maturity (including Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which they were amended) are repaid in full, unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional prepayment of such other Term Loans; provided, however, that (A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time a Term Loan Extension Request is delivered to Lenders, (B) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the Maturity Date of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans), (C) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche, (D) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing and (E) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Term Loan Extension Request. Any Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Term Loan Extension Series”) of Extended Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Term Loans amended from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Term Loan Extension Series with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche (in which case scheduled amortization with respect thereto shall be proportionally increased). Each Term Loan Extension Series of Extended Term Loans incurred under this Section 2.16 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 (or, if less, the entire principal amount of the Indebtedness being extended pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)).
