In addition to any other rights of the Administrative Agent provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (but with absolutely no obligation), make SBAC Revolving Loans to SBAC or SBF Revolving Loans to SBF, on behalf of the applicable Lenders, which the Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by any Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 11.3) and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (any such Loans are herein referred to collectively as “Protective Advances”). Protective Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied; provided that no Protective Advance shall be made after the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date, or cause any Lender’s outstanding Loans to exceed its SBAC Revolving Commitment or SBF Revolving Commitment.
