Swingline Loans (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $5,000,000 or (ii) the sum of the total Revolving Exposures exceeding the total Revolving Commitments; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.
Repayment and Participations of Swingline Loans At the end of each Business Day, Administrative Agent shall debit from the Account an amount equal to the lesser of (i) all funds in the Account in excess of $1,000,000 (as such amount may be increased or decreased from time to time by prior notice by the Borrower to Administrative Agent, which notice may be sent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication unless Administrative Agent informs Borrower that its internal procedures require a specific form of written communication for such notice in which event notices shall thereafter conform to Administrative Agent’s internal requirements; provided, however, in no event may Borrower decrease the minimum amount in the Account below $1,000,000), and (ii) all accrued interest and principal outstanding under the Swingline Loan, and Administrative Agent shall use such amount to repay the Swingline Lender for any amount then outstanding under the Swingline Loan. To the extent any outstanding Swingline Loans have not been repaid pursuant to the previous sentence, the Borrower agrees to repay each Swingline Loan on the last Business Day of each calendar week; provided, that in no event may the proceeds of a Swingline Loan be used to pay a Swingline Loan. In lieu of demanding repayment of any outstanding Swingline Loan from the Borrower on the last Business Day of each calendar week (or if the Borrower does not repay any outstanding Swingline Loan on the last Business Day of each calendar week), the Swingline Lender may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), request a borrowing of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans from the Revolving Lenders in an amount equal to the principal balance of such Swingline Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Swingline Loans on the Swingline Maturity Date (or such earlier date as the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree in writing). The amount limitations contained in the second sentence of Section 2.1(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of such Revolving Loans made pursuant to this subsection. If the Swingline Lender reasonably believes that there will be any amount outstanding under the Swingline Loans on the last Business Day of a calendar week (after giving effect to any Revolving Loan that the Borrower has requested be made on the last Business Day of such calendar week and its application to the Swingline Loans), the Swingline Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any such borrowing of Revolving Loans not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time on the Business Day prior to such last Business Day of the week. Promptly after receipt of such notice of borrowing of Revolving Loans from the Swingline Lender under the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the proposed borrowing. Not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time on the proposed date of such borrowing, each Revolving Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the proceeds of the Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Revolving Loans to the Swingline Lender, which shall apply such proceeds to repay such Swingline Loan. If the Revolving Lenders are prohibited from making Revolving Loans required to be made under this subsection for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation, the existence of any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 11.1(e) or (f), each Revolving Lender shall purchase from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan, by directly purchasing a participation in such Swingline Loan in such amount and paying the proceeds thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in Dollars and in immediately available funds. A Revolving Lender’s obligation to purchase such a participation in a Swingline Loan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or Event of Default (including without limitation, any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 11.1(e) or (f)), or the termination of any Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of an event or condition which has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of any Loan Document by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Revolving Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Swingline Lender’s demand therefor, and until such time as such Lender makes the required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the Loan Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Revolving Lenders to purchase a participation therein). Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Loans, and any other amounts due it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a result of such assignment or otherwise).
Revolving Loans The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans outstanding on such date.
Swingline Advances In addition to the other options available to Borrower hereunder, the Swingline Commitment shall be available for Swingline Advances subject to the following terms and conditions. Swingline Advances shall be made available for same day borrowings provided that notice is given in accordance with Section 2.9 hereof. All Swingline Advances shall bear interest at the Base Rate. In no event shall the Swingline Lender be required to fund a Swingline Advance if it would increase the total aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans by Swingline Lender hereunder plus its Revolving Percentage of Facility Letter of Credit Obligations to an amount in excess of the Swingline Lender’s Revolving Commitment. No Swingline Advance may be made to repay a Swingline Advance, but Borrower may repay Swingline Advances from subsequent pro rata Advances hereunder. On the fifth (5th) day after such a Swingline Advance was made, if such Swingline Advance has not been repaid by Borrower, each Revolving Lender irrevocably agrees to purchase its Revolving Percentage of any Swingline Advance made by the Swingline Lender regardless of whether the conditions for disbursement are satisfied at the time of such purchase, including the existence of an Unmatured Default or Default hereunder provided that Swingline Lender did not have actual knowledge of such Unmatured Default or Default at the time the Swingline Advance was made and provided further that no Lender shall be required to have total outstanding Revolving Loans plus its Revolving Percentage of Facility Letters of Credit exceed its Revolving Commitment. Such purchase shall take place on the date of the request by Swingline Lender so long as such request is made by noon (Cleveland time), and otherwise on the Business Day following such request. All requests for purchase shall be in writing. From and after the date it is so purchased, each such Swingline Advance shall, to the extent purchased, (i) be treated as a Revolving Loan made by the purchasing Revolving Lenders and not by the selling Revolving Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and the payment of the purchase price by a Lender shall be deemed to be the making of a Revolving Loan by such Revolving Lender and shall constitute outstanding principal under such Revolving Lender’s Note, and (ii) shall no longer be considered a Swingline Advance except that all interest accruing on or attributable to such Swingline Advance for the period prior to the date of such purchase shall be paid when due by Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Swingline Lender and all such amounts accruing on or attributable to such Revolving Loans for the period from and after the date of such purchase shall be paid when due by Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the purchasing Revolving Lenders. If prior to purchasing its Revolving Percentage of a Swingline Advance one of the events described in Section 7.7 shall have occurred and such event prevents the consummation of the purchase contemplated by preceding provisions, each Lender will purchase an undivided participating interest in the outstanding Swingline Advance in an amount equal to its Revolving Percentage of such Swingline Advance. From and after the date of each Revolving Lender’s purchase of its participating interest in a Swingline Advance, if the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Revolving Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment was received by the Swingline Lender and is required to be returned to Borrower, each Revolving Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swingline Lender to it. If any Revolving Lender fails to so purchase its Revolving Percentage of any Swingline Advance, such Revolving Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.16, the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swingline Loan at a time when any other Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Swingline Lender is satisfied that the participation therein will otherwise be fully allocated to the Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders consistent with Section 10.14 and the Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein, except to the extent the Swingline Lender has entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender that are satisfactory to the Swingline Lender in its good faith determination to eliminate the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to any such Defaulting Lender, including the delivery of cash collateral.
Swing Line Loans The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the earlier to occur of (i) the date ten Business Days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility.
New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) no Issuing Lender 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.
Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit Immediately upon the issuance by the Agent of any Letter of Credit each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the liability of the Agent with respect to such Letter of Credit, and each Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to the Agent to pay and discharge when due, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Agent’s liability under such Letter of Credit. In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Agent in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to the immediately following subsection (j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Agent or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Agent by the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to the Agent pursuant to the third and last sentences of Section 3.6.(b)).
Swing Loans (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in order to minimize the transfer of funds between Lenders and Agent for administrative convenience, Agent, Lenders holding Revolving Commitments and Swing Loan Lender agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement, Swing Loan Lender may, at its election and option made in its sole discretion cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever, make swing loan advances (“Swing Loans”) available to Borrowers as provided for in this Section 2.4 at any time or from time to time after the date hereof to, but not including, the expiration of the Term, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not in excess of the Maximum Swing Loan Advance Amount, provided that the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans and the Revolving Advances at any one time outstanding shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount less the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit or (ii) the Formula Amount. All Swing Loans shall be Domestic Rate Loans only. Borrowers may borrow (at the option and election of Swing Loan Lender), repay and reborrow (at the option and election of Swing Loan Lender) Swing Loans and Swing Loan Lender may make Swing Loans as provided in this Section 2.4 during the period between Settlement Dates. All Swing Loans shall be evidenced by a secured promissory note (the “Swing Loan Note”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.4(a). Swing Loan Lender’s agreement to make Swing Loans under this Agreement is cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever and the making of Swing Loans by Swing Loan Lender from time to time shall not create any duty or obligation, or establish any course of conduct, pursuant to which Swing Loan Lender shall thereafter be obligated to make Swing Loans in the future.
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.
