Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds In the event that the Issuers shall be required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase Notes pursuant to Section 4.11 (an “Asset Sale Offer”), they shall follow the procedures specified below. The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Issuers shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.11 (the “Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. Unless the Issuers default in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date. If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no Special Interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer the Issuers shall send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state: (a) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.11 and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open; (b) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; (c) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue interest; (d) that, unless the Issuers default in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; (e) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in minimum denominations of $2,000 and in multiple integrals of $1,000 in excess thereof only; (f) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, or transfer the Note by book-entry transfer, to the Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; (g) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; (h) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuers shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuers so that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased); and (i) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuers in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. The Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuers for purchase, and the Issuers shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Issuers, shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuers to the Holder thereof. The Issuers shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date. Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.09, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06.
Application Form To apply for a pole attachment or conduit occupancy license under this Agreement, Applicant shall submit to SWBT two signed copies of the appropriate application forms. SWBT represents that the forms specified in subsections (a)-(b) are forms in use prior to the effective date of this Agreement and that SWBT is in the process of revising such forms to conform to the provisions of this Agreement and to streamline the application process. The parties therefore agree that the forms specified in subsections (a) and (b) will be interim forms only. SWBT reserves the right to change the format and content of these forms upon 60 days written notice to Applicant. (a) To apply for a pole attachment license, Applicant shall submit to SWBT two signed copies of SWBT’s Form SW-9434 (“Access Application and Make- Ready Authorization”) together with completed Form SW-9433 (“Pole Attachments”). An application for a pole attachment license will not be complete or subject to processing by SWBT until these forms have been submitted to SWBT; provided, however, that such forms will be deemed to be substantially complete if they contain the information specified in subsections (c)-(h) below, as applicable. Copies of Forms SW-9433 and SW-9434 are attached to this Agreement as parts of APPENDIX III. (b) To apply for a conduit occupancy license, Applicant shall submit to SWBT two signed copies of SWBT’s Form SW-9434 (“Access Application and Make-Ready Authorization”) together with completed Form SW-9435 (“Conduit Occupancy”). An application for a conduit occupancy license will not be complete or subject to processing by SWBT until these forms have been submitted to SWBT; provided, however, that such forms will be deemed to be substantially complete if they contain the information specified in subsections (c)-(h) below, as applicable. Copies of Forms SW-9434 and SW-9435 are attached to this Agreement as parts of APPENDIX III. (c) Each application for a license under this Agreement shall include, at a minimum, the following information: (1) the poles, ducts, and conduits (including all manholes) along Applicant’s proposed route to or within which Applicant desires to attach or place its facilities; (2) a description of the facilities to be attached to SWBT’s poles and a description of the facilities to be placed within each component of SWBT’s conduit system (including but not limited to ducts, conduits, manholes, and handholes) along the proposed route; (3) for poles, the proposed points of attachment; (4) for building entrance or building distribution ducts or conduits or other space within a building, a conspicuous statement, as required by Section 5.06 of this Agreement, that the application pertains to a building entrance or building distribution duct or conduit or other space within a building; (5) if applicable, a conspicuous notation that the space requested is not to be assigned (or billed) to Applicant until SWBT has received Applicant’s written instruction to make such assignment or issued a license authorizing Applicant to occupy the space requested; and (6) if applicable, a conspicuous statement that Applicant intends to occupy the space before the issuance of a license, as provided in Section 8.03 of this Agreement. (d) Facilities descriptions which apply to multiple pole attachments or conduit occupancies need only be described once on any form. Facilities descriptions shall include, at a minimum, the following information: (1) the number and types of cables, including the physical size (diameter) and weight (weight per foot); (2) the number and types of strands, if any, which will be used to support the cables, including the rated holding capacity expressed in thousand pound increments (e.g., 2.2M) of such strands; and (3) sufficient information to identify and describe the physical characteristics (size, dimensions, and weight) of apparatus enclosures and other facilities to be attached to SWBT’s poles or placed in SWBT’s conduit system. (e) When it appears to Applicant that facilities modification, capacity expansion, or make-ready work may be required to accommodate Applicant’s access requests, Applicant shall describe the facilities modification, capacity expansion, or make-ready work which Applicant proposes. Applicant shall also describe its plans, if any, to use any infrequent construction technique or connectivity solution authorized under Section 6.03 to avoid high or unusual expenditures and state its reasons for the use of such technique or solution. (f) Applicant acknowledges that the poles along a particular pole line or route may include poles owned by firms (such as electric utilities) other than SWBT, that it may be necessary for SWBT to rearrange its facilities or perform other make-ready work on poles other than poles it owns or controls in order to accommodate Applicant’s request for access to SWBT’s poles and that, at the time an application is submitted, it may be difficult for Applicant to determine with certainty whether a particular pole is owned or controlled by SWBT or by another entity. Accordingly, the application shall, to the extent feasible, identify all poles utilized by SWBT (without regard to ownership) along Applicant’s proposed route. (g) Each application for a license under this Agreement shall be accompanied by a construction schedule showing Applicant’s projected dates for beginning and completing construction at the sites specified in the application. Information on this schedule may be used by SWBT’s engineering and outside plant construction personnel in scheduling work required to process Applicant’s applications and scheduling such capacity expansions, make- ready work, and facilities modifications, if any, as may be necessary to accommodate Applicant’s facilities. (h) Applicant may include multiple cables in a single license application and may provide multiple services (e.g., CATV and non-CATV services) under the same cable sheath or jacket. When both CATV and non-CATV services are provided under the same cable sheath or jacket, or CATV and non-CATV services are provided using different cables attached or lashed to the same strand or otherwise occupying the same space on a pole or the same duct or inner duct within a conduit, Applicant will so advise SWBT and SWBT shall, if permitted by law, adjust its charges to enable SWBT to charge Applicant the rate applicable to telecommunications carriers rather than the rate applicable to cable television systems solely to provide cable service.
Application for Leave Any request for a leave of absence shall be submitted in writing by the employee to the Employer or designee. The request shall state the reason the leave of absence is being requested and the length of time off the employee desires. Authorization for a leave of absence shall be furnished to the employee by the Employer or designee, and it shall be in writing.
Application of Collateral Proceeds The proceeds and/or avails of the Collateral, or any part thereof, and the proceeds and the avails of any remedy hereunder (as well as any other amounts of any kind held by Lender, at the time of or received by Lender after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder) shall be paid to and applied as follows: (a) First, to the payment of out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including all amounts expended to preserve the value of the Collateral, of foreclosure or suit, if any, and of such sale and the exercise of any other rights or remedies, and of all proper fees, expenses, liability and advances, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or made hereunder by Lender, including, without limitation, Lender’s Expenses; (b) Second, to the payment to Lender of the amount then owing or unpaid on the Loans for any accrued and unpaid interest, the amounts which would have otherwise come due under Section 2.3(b)(ii), if the Loans had been voluntarily prepaid, the principal balance of the Loans, and all other Obligations with respect to the Loans (provided, however, if such proceeds shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due, owing or unpaid upon the Loans, then to the unpaid interest thereon, then to the amounts which would have otherwise come due under Section 2.3(b)(ii), if the Loans had been voluntarily prepaid, then to the principal balance of the Loans, and then to the payment of other amounts then payable to Lender under any of the Loan Documents); and (c) Third, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to Borrower, its successors and assigns, or to the Person lawfully entitled to receive the same.
