Agent Advances (i) Subject to the limitations set forth below and notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, (A) at any time that a Default exists, (B) at any time that any of the other conditions precedent set forth in Article 4 have not been satisfied, or (C) at any time an Overadvance exists or would result from any Agent Advance (as defined below), to make Base Rate Advances to the Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time not to exceed (together with all other Aggregate Revolving Credit Obligations) the lesser of (y) the Revolving Loan Commitment or (z) $5,000,000, which the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (2) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (3) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees and expenses as provided under this Agreement (any of such advances are herein referred to as “Agent Advances”); provided, that (i) such amount shall not be outstanding more than 30 days and (ii) the Majority Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Agent Advances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to the Administrative Borrower written notice of any Agent Advance.
Loan Disbursements (a) On the Effective Date, and following each subsequent request for disbursement from Borrower which request shall be sent by Administrative Agent to each Lender and shall identify the proposed Funding Date, each Lender shall make available to Administrative Agent (or the funding bank or entity designated by Administrative Agent), the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan in immediately available funds not later than the times designated in Section 12.3(b). Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender not later than the close of business (San Francisco time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Effective Date or any subsequent Funding Date in respect of any disbursement that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender shall make such amount available to Administrative Agent. If any Lender does not notify Administrative Agent of its intention not to make available its Pro Rata Share of such disbursement as described above, but does not for any reason make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, such Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate. In any case where a Lender does not for any reason make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, fund to Borrower such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement. If Administrative Agent funds to Borrower such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement and if such Lender subsequently pays to Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement. Nothing in this Section 12.3(a) shall alter the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder in respect of a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Pro Rata Advance.
Term Loan Advances Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding for each Term Loan Advance shall accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate, plus three-quarters of one percent (0.75%), which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.1.2(b) above and Section 2.3(d) below.
Repayment of Swingline Loans Each Swingline Loan borrowing shall be due and payable on the earlier of (A) the Swingline Maturity Date and (B) three (3) days after demand therefor by the Swingline Lender by written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the following circumstances, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have given demand for repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a Revolving Loan borrowing and, in such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the Dollar Amount of such Swingline Loans one Business Day prior to each of (1) the Maturity Date, (2) the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 7.1(e), (3) upon acceleration of the Credit Party Obligations hereunder, whether on account of an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(e) or any other Event of Default and (4) the exercise of remedies in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2 hereof (each such Revolving Loan borrowing made on account of any such deemed request therefor as provided herein being hereinafter referred to as a “Mandatory Borrowing”). Each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans promptly upon any such deemed request on account of each Mandatory Borrowing in the Dollar Amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the same such date notwithstanding (A) the amount of Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (B) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then satisfied, (C) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (D) failure of any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loans to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1(b)(i), (E) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing, or (F) any reduction in the Revolving Committed Amount or termination of the Revolving Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrower), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Lender to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon its respective Commitment Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2), provided that (A) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is purchased, and (B) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of such participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date of the Mandatory Borrowing, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate.
Borrowing Mechanics for Swing Line Loans (i) Swing Line Loans shall be made in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount.
Protective Advances (a) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Company and the Lenders, from time to time during the Availability Period, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but with no obligation), to make Loans in US Dollars to the Company, on behalf of all Lenders, which the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, 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 Loans and other Obligations or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees, and expenses described in Section 8.03) and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (any such Loans are herein referred to as “Protective Advances”); provided that the aggregate principal amount of Protective Advances outstanding at any time shall not exceed $50,000,000; provided further that the making of any Protective Advance shall not cause the Aggregate Credit Exposure to exceed the Aggregate Commitments. Protective Advances may be made when a Default exists or the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 are not otherwise satisfied. The Protective Advances shall be secured by the Liens created by the Collateral Documents and shall constitute Obligations. The Company shall be required to repay (or, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02, refinance with the proceeds of a Borrowing) each Protective Advance within 45 days after such Protective Advance is made. Without affecting Protective Advances already made, the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make future Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Excess Availability and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request, on behalf of the Company, the Lenders to make ABR Loans to repay any Protective Advance. At any other time the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to acquire participations in any Protective Advance as described in Section 2.04(b).
Disbursement of Revolving Credit and Swingline Loans Not later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed borrowing date, (i) each Revolving Credit Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Borrower, at the office of the Administrative Agent in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans to be made on such borrowing date and (ii) the Swingline Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Borrower, at the office of the Administrative Agent in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Loans to be made on such borrowing date. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each borrowing requested pursuant to this Section in immediately available funds by crediting or wiring such proceeds to the deposit account of the Borrower identified in the most recent notice substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C (a “Notice of Account Designation”) delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or as may be otherwise agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time. Subject to Section 5.7 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse the portion of the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loan requested pursuant to this Section to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender has not made available to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Loan. Revolving Credit Loans to be made for the purpose of refunding Swingline Loans shall be made by the Revolving Credit Lenders as provided in Section 2.2(b).
Borrowing Mechanics for Revolving Loans (i) Except pursuant to Section 2.4(d), Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans shall be made in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount, Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount.
New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no L/C Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.
Disbursement of Loans Not later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing, subject to Section 7 hereof, each Lender shall make available its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds immediately available at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois (or at such other location as the Administrative Agent shall designate). The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing available to the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as instructed by the Borrower.
