Financing (a) Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts, taking into account, with respect to the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters, the expected timing of the Trigger Date, the Expiration Dates, the Marketing Period and, with respect of the New NewPage Term Loan Facility, the provisions of Section 5.20(d), in respect of each of the facilities contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters, to take or cause to be taken, all actions to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or customary to arrange and obtain the Debt Financing, on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) described in the Debt Commitment Letters and any Fee Letter, to the extent applicable, including using reasonable best efforts (i) to maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letters and the Existing Credit Agreement Amendments in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions thereof until the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) to negotiate and/or enter into the Definitive Debt Financing Documents on or prior to the expiration of the applicable Debt Commitment Letter(s) (each such date, an “Expiration Date”) on the terms specifically set forth in the term sheets and the other exhibits attached to the Debt Commitment Letters (after giving effect to the “market flex” in the Fee Letters), the proviso in the second to last sentence of Section 15 of the Debt Commitment Letters and any upfront, arrangement or agency fees specifically set forth in the Fee Letters, or with the prior written consent of the Company, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, on terms that are in the good faith judgment of Parent in the aggregate not materially less favorable to each of Parent and the Company than the terms specifically set forth in the term sheets and other exhibits attached to the Debt Commitment Letters (after giving effect to the “market flex” in the Fee Letters), the proviso in the second to last sentence of Section 15 of the Debt Commitment Letters and any upfront, arrangement or agency fees specifically set forth in the Fee Letters, (iii) to satisfy (or if deemed reasonably advisable by Parent, obtain the waiver of) on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent in the Debt Financing that are within its control (other than any condition where the failure to be so satisfied is a direct result of the Company’s failure to furnish the information required under this Section 5.12) as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters and the Existing Credit Agreement Amendments, and to comply with all of its material obligations pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters and the Existing Credit Agreement Amendments, (iv) to cause the funding of the Debt Financing required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (v) to exercise any rights Parent may have under the Debt Commitment Letters to extend the Expiration Dates in accordance with the terms of the Debt Commitment Letters and to negotiate and agree with the Lenders to further extend such Expiration Dates beyond the commitment periods provided for therein (to the extent specified in Section 5.20(d)), and (vi) to enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letters and/or the Existing Credit Agreement Amendments, including by pursuing litigation against the lenders in good faith; provided, however, solely with respect to this clause (vi), that the Trigger Date shall have occurred and all of the conditions to the Lenders’ obligations under the Debt Commitment Letters to the funding of the New NewPage Term Loan Facility or the New NewPage ABL Facility, as applicable, have been satisfied or waived.
Financings There are no other financings currently pending or contemplated by the Company.
Refinancing Facilities (a) Upon written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time elect to refinance any Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, in whole or in part, with one or more new term loan facilities (each, a “Refinancing Term Facility”) or new revolving credit facilities (each, a “Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility”; the Refinancing Term Facilities and the Refinancing Revolving Credit Facilities are collectively referred to as “Refinancing Facilities”), respectively, under this Agreement with the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the institutions providing such Refinancing Term Facility or Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility or, in the case of any series of Term Loans, with one or more series of senior unsecured notes or term loans or senior secured first lien notes or term loans or senior secured junior lien (as compared to the Liens securing the Secured Obligations) term loans, in each case, if secured, that will be secured by Liens on the Collateral on a pari passu basis or junior priority basis (as applicable) with the Liens on Collateral securing the Secured Obligations and will be subject to customary intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (any such notes or loans, “Refinancing Equivalent Debt”); provided that (i) except with respect to customary bridge loans, any Refinancing Term Facility or Refinancing Equivalent Debt does not mature, or have a weighted average life to maturity, earlier than the final maturity, or the weighted average life, of the Class of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans being refinanced, (ii) any Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility does not mature prior to the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Commitments being refinanced, (iii) the other terms and conditions of such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility or Refinancing Equivalent Debt (excluding pricing and optional prepayment or redemption terms) are (taken as a whole) no more favorable to the lenders or investors, as applicable, providing such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility or Refinancing Equivalent Debt, as applicable, than those applicable to the Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans or the Revolving Credit Commitments being refinanced, (iv) there shall be no borrower, issuer and/or guarantor under any Refinancing Equivalent Debt other than the Borrower and/or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as applicable, (v) the proceeds of any Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Equivalent Debt shall be applied, substantially simultaneously with the incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of outstanding Loans (and, in the case of any Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Equivalent Debt the proceeds of which are used to refinance the Revolving Credit Commitments, to the pro rata commitment reduction) under the facility being refinanced, and (vi) to the extent secured, any such Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Equivalent Debt shall not be secured by any lien on any asset that does not also secure the Facilities. Each such notice shall specify the date on which the Borrower proposes that the Refinancing Facility shall be made or the Refinancing Equivalent Debt shall be issued, which shall be a date not less than three (3) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent.
Pre-financing Pre-financing is intended to provide the beneficiary with a float. Where required by the provisions of Article I.4 on pre-financing, the beneficiary shall furnish a financial guarantee from a bank or an approved financial institution established in one of the Member States of the European Union. The guarantor shall stand as first call guarantor and shall not require the Commission to have recourse against the principal debtor (the beneficiary). The financial guarantee shall remain in force until final payments by the Commission match the proportion of the total grant accounted for by pre-financing. The Commission undertakes to release the guarantee within 30 days following that date.

From and after the commencement of the Marketing Period through and including the Closing Date, Sellers shall use reasonable best efforts to periodically update any Required Information provided to Acquiror if failure to do so would result in the Marketing Period to cease to be deemed to have commenced. Acquiror shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sellers and their respective Subsidiaries, and their respective directors, officers, employees and Representatives, from and against any liability or obligation to providers of the Debt Financing in connection with the Debt Financing and any information provided in connection therewith other than historical financial information provided by the Sellers, and the Acquiror Guaranty shall guaranty the obligations of Acquiror pursuant to this Section 5.6, in each case, other than to the extent any of the foregoing arises from the willful misconduct of, or material breach of this Agreement by, (x) any Seller or (y) any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, employees and Representatives (in each case, only to the extent the party seeking indemnity under this sentence has committed such willful misconduct or material breach). Further, Sellers, on behalf of themselves and their Affiliates, hereby consent to the reasonable and customary use of their and their Affiliates’ trademarks, service marks or logos in connection with the Debt Financing; provided that such trademarks, service marks or logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage Sellers or any of their Affiliates or the reputation or goodwill of Sellers or any of their Affiliates or any of their respective Intellectual Property rights and provided that in each instance the use of their and their Affiliates’ trademarks, service marks or logos is first submitted to and approved in writing by Sellers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and any Action or Losses related to such use shall be the responsibility of Acquiror. Acquiror shall promptly upon Sellers’ request reimburse Sellers and their respective Subsidiaries for all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by Sellers or their respective Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation pursuant to this Section 5.6 and, to the extent Acquiror does not reimburse Sellers or the applicable Subsidiary for any such cost or expense on or prior to the date of the Closing Date Statement, the Companies shall be deemed to have a current asset on the Closing Date Statement in the amount of such unreimbursed costs and expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the condition set forth in Section 8.2(b), as it applies to Sellers’ obligations under this Section 5.6, shall be deemed satisfied unless Sellers have knowingly and willfully materially breached their obligations under this Section 5.6. If Sellers at any point believe that they have delivered the Required Information in accordance with this Section 5.6, they may deliver to Acquiror a written notice to such effect, in which case Sellers shall be deemed to have delivered the Required Information unless Acquiror shall provide to Sellers within two (2) Business Days a written notice describing in reasonable detail what information that constitutes Required Information Sellers have not delivered. In furtherance of the foregoing, Acquiror shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Lenders to identify in writing and in reasonable detail all financial data expected to constitute Required Information (other than the financial statements described herein) on or before October 3, 2012 and shall provide Sellers such information as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof.
Financing Arrangements (a) The Owner will obtain the Project Loan which shall be sufficient, together with the Owner's equity contributions, to pay the full amount of the costs to construct the Project in accordance with the development budget. The Owner and the Developer also contemplate that the Property and the Project, together with all fixtures, furnishing, equipment, and articles of personal property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Owner which are or may be attached to or used in connection with the Property or the Project, together with any and all replacements thereto and substitutions therefor, and all proceeds thereof; and all present and future rents, issues, leases, and profits of the Property and the Project will serve as security for the payment obligations to any lenders relating to the Project Loan or otherwise, and that the Owner will be the principal obligor for the repayment of all financial obligations thereunder after the transfer of title to the Owner. The Owner therefore, agrees to execute and deliver all commitments, promissory notes, mortgages, collateral assignments, documents, certificates, affidavits, and other writings required to be executed by any lender in connection with such financing.
Debt Financing (a) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, $5,000,000,000 of Debt Financing on the terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment as promptly as reasonably practicable and shall not, without the Special Committee’s prior written consent, permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision under, the Debt Financing Commitment, if such amendment, modification or waiver (i) reduces (or could have the effect of reducing) the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing (including by increasing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount in respect of the Debt Financing) or (ii) imposes new or additional conditions or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the Debt Financing, or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any other provision of the Debt Financing Commitment, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) materially delay or prevent or make less likely the funding of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Debt Financing) on the Closing Date or (y) adversely impact the ability of the Company and/or the Borrowers to enforce their respective rights against other parties to the Debt Financing Commitment or the definitive agreements with respect thereto, in each case, relating to the funding thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the Company, without the consent of the Special Committee, may amend the Debt Financing in any manner the Company Board determines is in the best interests of the Company (including to add lenders, arrangers, bookrunners, agents, managers or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Financing Commitment and amend the economic and other arrangements with respect to the existing and additional lenders, arrangers, bookrunners, agents, managers or similar entities) so long as such amendment would not reasonably be expected to (x) materially delay or prevent or make less likely the funding of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Debt Financing) on or prior to the Closing Date, (y) adversely impact the ability of the Company and/or the Borrowers to enforce their respective rights against other parties to the Debt Financing Commitment or the definitive agreements with respect thereto, in each case, relating to the funding thereunder or (z) result in the net proceeds of the Debt Financing being made available to the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates, as applicable, in an amount which is not sufficient to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 5.01(e)(iii).
Refinancings The First Lien Obligations of any Series may be Refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the Refinancing transaction under any Secured Credit Document) of any First Lien Secured Party of any other Series, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided that the Authorized Representative of the holders of any such Refinancing indebtedness shall have executed a Joinder Agreement on behalf of the holders of such Refinancing indebtedness.
