Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower through a Revolving Credit Loan or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.
Lender Participations (a) Although any Lender may grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer by novation its rights and obligations or assign its rights under all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in Sections 2.12 and 13.01) and the participant shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder; and
Sub-participation A Lender may sub-participate all or any part of its rights and/or obligations under the Security Documents at its own expense without the consent of, consultation with or notice to, the Borrowers.
Participation Rights At least 20 days prior to any Transfer, in any one transaction or series of related transactions, by a holder of Class A Unit, Class B Units or Class C Units, of any Units (other than one or more Transfers (i) pursuant to a transaction pursuant to Section 10.3 or Section 15.7, (ii) to any Affiliate of the Investors or Contributors, as applicable, (iii) which are Exempt Transfers or (iv) to any current or former officer, employee, manager, director, member, partner or co-investor of the Investors or any of their Affiliates), such holder of Class A Units, Class B Units and/or Class C Units (the “Transferring Unitholder”) shall deliver a written notice (the “Sale Notice”) to the LLC and to each of the other Unitholders (the “Other Unitholders”), specifying in reasonable detail the number and class of Units to be Transferred and the terms and conditions of the contemplated Transfer. The Other Unitholders holding the same class or series of Units (with the Class A Units, Class B Units, Class C Units and Class D Units each being treated as a separate class or series for purposes of this Section 10.2) may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to the Transferring Unitholder within 20 days after delivery of the Sale Notice (such Unitholders delivering such notice of election in accordance with this Section 10.2, collectively, the “Electing Unitholders”). Such participation shall be based upon the Pro Rata Share represented by the Units requested to be included in such Transfer by each Unitholder relative to the Pro Rata Share of all Units of such class or series held by the Unitholders participating in such Transfer (including the Transferring Unitholder). Each Electing Unitholder shall Transfer his, her or its Units on the same terms and conditions, with the aggregate consideration to be paid in connection with such Transfer allocated among each Unit included therein based on such Unit’s Pro Rata Share, determined based upon the Total Equity Value Proceeds implied by the price offered in the Sale Notice; provided that in the event that Units being transferred by the Transferring Unitholder are comprised solely of Class A Units or Class B Units, the aggregate consideration to be paid in connection with such Transfer shall be allocated based on the proportionate Class A Unreturned Capital and Class A Unpaid Yield, or Class B Unreturned Capital and Class B Unpaid Yield, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if the Transferring Unitholder intends to Transfer Units of more than one class or series, each of the Other Unitholders electing to participate must participate in all such Transfers (to the extent such Other Unitholders hold such other class or series), (B) if such Transfer constitutes a Sale of the LLC, the Class D Units shall be deemed to be the same class of Units as the Class C Units for the purpose of this Section 10.2, and (C) in no event shall any Unitholder be entitled to Transfer any unvested Management Incentive Units pursuant this Section 10.2.
Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit Immediately upon the issuance by the Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the liability of the Issuing Lender 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 Issuing Lender to pay and discharge when due, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Issuing Lender’s liability under such Letter of Credit. In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3(j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Agent, the Issuing Lender or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Lender 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 Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(b)(ii)).

Equity Participation This Warrant is issued in connection with the Loan Agreement. It is intended that this Warrant constitute an equity participation under and pursuant to T.C.A. ss.47-24-101, et seq. and that such equity participation be perxxxxxx xxder said statutes and not constitute interest on the Note. If under any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any obligation of this Warrant, the Loan Agreement, or any other agreement or document executed in connection with the Loan Agreement, shall violate the lawful limit of any applicable usury statute or any other applicable law with regard to obligations of like character and amount, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to such lawful limit, such that in no event shall there occur, under this Warrant, the Loan Agreement, or any other document or instrument executed in connection with the Loan Agreement, any violation of such lawful limit, but such obligation shall be fulfilled to the lawful limit. If any sum is collected in excess of the lawful limit, such excess shall be applied to reduce the principal amount of the Note.
Participations Generally Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities, other than an Ineligible Institution, (a “Participant”), in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment, Swingline Exposure and the Revolving Credit Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, each Letter of Credit Issuer and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the second sentence of Section 12.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.8 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans, Letters of Credit or other obligations under the Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loan, Letters of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
Repayment of Participations (i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.
Reimbursement; Participations (a) If Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall pay to Issuing Bank, on the same day (“Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Base Rate Revolver Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by Borrowers. The obligation of Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary. Whether or not Borrower Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolver Loans in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.
