Usury Savings Clause Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Borrower.
USURY SAVINGS PROVISION IT IS THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO CONFORM TO AND CONTRACT IN STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE USURY LAW FROM TIME TO TIME IN EFFECT. TO THE EXTENT ANY RENT OR PAYMENTS HEREUNDER ARE HEREINAFTER CHARACTERIZED BY ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION AS THE REPAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST THEREON, THIS SECTION 30.14 SHALL APPLY. ANY SUCH RENT OR PAYMENTS SO CHARACTERIZED AS INTEREST MAY BE REFERRED TO HEREIN AS "INTEREST." ALL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO ARE HEREBY LIMITED BY THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH WHICH SHALL OVERRIDE AND CONTROL ALL SUCH AGREEMENTS, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL. IN NO WAY, NOR IN ANY EVENT OR CONTINGENCY (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION PREPAYMENT OR ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY OF ANY OBLIGATION), SHALL ANY INTEREST TAKEN, RESERVED, CONTRACTED FOR, CHARGED, OR RECEIVED UNDER THIS LEASE OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE MAXIMUM NONUSURIOUS AMOUNT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. IF, FROM ANY POSSIBLE CONSTRUCTION OF ANY OF THE OPERATIVE AGREEMENTS OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT, INTEREST WOULD OTHERWISE BE PAYABLE IN EXCESS OF THE MAXIMUM NONUSURIOUS AMOUNT, ANY SUCH CONSTRUCTION SHALL BE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH AND SUCH AMOUNTS UNDER SUCH DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS SHALL BE AUTOMATICALLY REDUCED TO THE MAXIMUM NONUSURIOUS AMOUNT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF EXECUTION OF ANY AMENDMENT OR NEW DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT. IF LESSOR SHALL EVER RECEIVE ANYTHING OF VALUE WHICH IS CHARACTERIZED AS INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO THE OBLIGATIONS OWED HEREUNDER OR UNDER APPLICABLE LAW AND WHICH WOULD, APART FROM THIS PROVISION, BE IN EXCESS OF THE MAXIMUM LAWFUL AMOUNT, AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE AMOUNT WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN EXCESSIVE INTEREST SHALL, WITHOUT PENALTY, BE APPLIED TO THE REDUCTION OF THE COMPONENT OF PAYMENTS DEEMED TO BE PRINCIPAL AND NOT TO THE PAYMENT OF INTEREST, OR REFUNDED TO LESSEE OR ANY OTHER PAYOR THEREOF, IF AND TO THE EXTENT SUCH AMOUNT WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN EXCESSIVE EXCEEDS THE COMPONENT OF PAYMENTS DEEMED TO BE PRINCIPAL. THE RIGHT TO DEMAND PAYMENT OF ANY AMOUNTS EVIDENCED BY ANY OF THE OPERATIVE AGREEMENTS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE ANY INTEREST WHICH HAS NOT OTHERWISE ACCRUED ON THE DATE OF SUCH DEMAND, AND LESSOR DOES NOT INTEND TO CHARGE OR RECEIVE ANY UNEARNED INTEREST IN THE EVENT OF SUCH DEMAND. ALL INTEREST PAID OR AGREED TO BE PAID TO LESSOR SHALL, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BE AMORTIZED, PRORATED, ALLOCATED, AND SPREAD THROUGHOUT THE FULL STATED TERM (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY RENEWAL OR EXTENSION) OF THIS LEASE SO THAT THE AMOUNT OF INTEREST ON ACCOUNT OF SUCH PAYMENTS DOES NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM NONUSURIOUS AMOUNT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
Savings Clause If this Agreement or any portion thereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee as to Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any Proceeding to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Agreement that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
No Usury Borrower and Lender intend at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this Section 10.17 shall control every other agreement in the Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or any other Loan Document, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Lender’s exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Loan or any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Borrower’s and Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited against the unpaid Principal and all other Debt (or, if the Debt has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
No Proceedings; Limitation on Payments (a) Each of the Seller, ACI, the Servicer, the Administrator, the LC Bank, the Purchaser Agents and the Purchasers and each assignee of the Purchased Interest or any interest therein, and each Person that enters into a commitment to purchase the Purchased Interest or interests therein, hereby covenants and agrees that it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Conduit Purchaser any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding, or other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the latest maturing Note issued by such Conduit Purchaser is paid in full. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.
Severability; Blue Pencil The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Executive has had the opportunity to seek advice of counsel in connection with this Agreement and the restrictive covenants contained herein are reasonable in geographical scope temporal duration and in all other respects. If it is determined that any provision of this Section 6 is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions of this Section 6 shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions. If any court or other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the covenants in this Section 6 is unenforceable because of the duration or geographic scope, of such provision, then after such determination becomes final and unappealable, the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, shall be reduced so that such provision becomes enforceable, and in its reduced form, such provision shall be enforced.
409A Savings Clause The parties intend that payments or benefits payable under this Agreement not be subject to the additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A of the Code, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intent. To the extent such potential payments or benefits could become subject to Code Section 409A, the parties shall cooperate to amend this Agreement with the goal of giving Executive the economic benefits described herein in a manner that does not result in such tax being imposed. If the parties are unable to agree on a mutually acceptable amendment, the Company may, without Executive’s consent and in such manner as it deems appropriate or desirable, amend or modify this Agreement or delay the payment of any amounts hereunder to the minimum extent necessary to meet the requirements of Code Section 409A.
Severability of Covenants/Blue Pencilling If any court determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Restrictive Covenants shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions. If any court determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, are unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the area covered thereby, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or area of such provision and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced. Executive hereby waives any and all right to attack the validity of the Restrictive Covenants on the grounds of the breadth of their geographic scope or the length of their term.
Usury Not Intended It is the intent of the Borrower and each Bank in the execution and performance of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws, including conflicts of law concepts, governing the Advances of each Bank including such applicable laws of the State of New York and the United States of America from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof, the Banks and the Borrower stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate and that for purposes hereof “interest” shall include the aggregate of all charges which constitute interest under such laws that are contracted for, charged or received under this Agreement; and in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, under any circumstances the aggregate amounts taken, reserved, charged, received or paid on the Advances, include amounts which by applicable law are deemed interest which would exceed the Maximum Rate, then such excess shall be deemed to be a mistake and each Bank receiving same shall credit the same on the principal of its Notes (or if such Notes shall have been paid in full, refund said excess to the Borrower). In the event that the maturity of the Notes is accelerated by reason of any election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest may never include more than the Maximum Rate and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the applicable Notes (or, if the applicable Notes shall have been paid in full, refunded to the Borrower). In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingencies exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Borrower and the Banks shall to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the Notes all amounts considered to be interest under applicable law at any time contracted for, charged, received or reserved in connection with the Obligations. The provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents which may be in apparent conflict herewith.
