Letter of Credit Reports Each Issuing Bank shall furnish (A) to the Agent on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all such Letters of Credit and (B) to the Agent on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate Available Amount during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.
The Letter of Credit Subfacility (a) On the terms and conditions set forth herein (i) the Issuing Bank agrees, (A) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Revolving Termination Date to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers, and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsections 3.02(c) and 3.02(d), and (B) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit; and (ii) the Banks severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit Issued for the account of the Borrowers; provided, that the Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to Issue, and no Bank shall be obligated to participate in, any Letter of Credit if as of the date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit (the "Issuance Date") (1) the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations plus the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans, Term Loans and Bid Loans exceeds the combined Commitments, (2) the participation of any Bank in the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations plus the Effective Amount of the Revolving Loans and Term Loans of such Bank exceeds such Bank's Commitment, or (3) the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations exceeds the L/C Commitment. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers' ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and, accordingly, the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit which have expired or which have been drawn upon and reimbursed.
Letter of Credit Commissions Subject to Section 5.15(a)(iii)(B), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants, a letter of credit commission with respect to each Letter of Credit in the amount equal to the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit times the Applicable Margin with respect to Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans (determined on a per annum basis). Such commission shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and thereafter on demand of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants all commissions received pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages.
Letter of Credit Requirements (a) Any Letter of Credit required under this Loan Agreement must satisfy the following conditions:
Letter of Credit Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a clean, irrevocable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) established in Landlord’s (and its successors’ and assigns’) favor in the Letter of Credit Amount, issued by a federally insured banking or lending institution (i.e., insured by the FDIC) with a retail banking branch located within the continental United States reasonably acceptable to Landlord and in other form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord. The Letter of Credit shall specifically provide for partial draws, shall be self-renewing annually as an “Evergreen” letter of credit, without amendment, for additional one-year periods, shall have a term that is self-renewing until sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Term of the Lease and shall by its terms be transferable by the beneficiary thereunder for a transfer fee not to exceed $250.00 payable by Tenant. If Tenant fails to make any payment of rent or other charges due to Landlord under the terms of the Lease, or otherwise defaults hereunder, beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, may make a demand for payment under the Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the amounts then due and owing to Landlord under the Lease. In the event that Landlord draws upon the Letter of Credit, Tenant shall present to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit in the full Letter of Credit Amount satisfying all of the terms and conditions of this Section within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from Landlord of such draw. Tenant’s failure to do so within such 10-day period will constitute a default hereunder (Tenant hereby waiving any additional notice and grace or cure period), and upon such default Landlord shall be entitled to immediately exercise all rights and remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity. In the event that the Letter of Credit is terminated by the issuer thereof prior to the date that is sixty (60) days after the expiration date of this Lease, as set forth above, and Tenant has not presented to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit which complies with the terms and conditions of the Lease on or before thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of any such Letter of Credit then held by Landlord, then Tenant shall be deemed in default hereunder and Landlord, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for hereunder, shall have the right to draw upon the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord and any such amount paid to Landlord by the issuer of the Letter of Credit shall be held in a segregated account by Landlord as security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations hereunder. Any interest earned on such amounts shall be the property of Landlord. Landlord’s election to draw under the Letter of Credit and to hold the proceeds of the drawing under the Letter of Credit in a segregated account shall not be deemed a cure of any default by Tenant hereunder and shall not relieve Tenant from its obligation to present to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit which complies with the terms and conditions of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that any proceeds of a draw made under the Letter of Credit and thereafter held in a segregated account by Landlord may be used by Landlord to cure or satisfy any obligation of Tenant hereunder as if such proceeds were instead proceeds of a draw made under a Letter of Credit that remained outstanding and in full force and effect at the time such amounts are applied by Landlord to cure or satisfy any such obligation of Tenant. Tenant hereby affirmatively disclaims any interest Tenant has, may have, claims to have, or may claim to have in any proceeds drawn by Landlord under the Letter of Credit and held in accordance with the terms hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that at the end of the Term of the Lease (whether by expiration or earlier termination hereof), and if Tenant is not then in default under this Lease, Landlord shall return to the issuer of the Letter of Credit or its successor (or as such issuer may direct in writing) any remaining and unapplied proceeds of any prior draws made under the Letter of Credit, and Tenant shall have no rights, residual or otherwise, in or to such proceeds. In addition to the foregoing, Landlord will have the right to require Tenant to have a new Letter of Credit issued in accordance with the above requirements from a different Issuer if either the original Issuer is placed on an FDIC “watch list”, if the FDIC or similar state or federal banking regulatory agency is appointed as receiver or conservator for such Issuer or if Landlord analyzes such Issuer’s capitalization, asset quality, earnings, and/or liquidity and in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, disapproves of such Issuer’s financial wherewithal and ability to remain as the issuer of the Letter of Credit. Such new Letter of Credit must comply with the foregoing requirements and must be issued within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s demand therefor. Provided Tenant is not then in default (regardless of any notice and cure periods) and has not been in default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods during the prior twelve (12) months, the Letter of Credit Amount shall reduce during the Term of this Lease on the first date of the respective Lease Year as set forth below: Date of Reduction Amount of Reduction of Letter of Credit Remaining Letter of Credit Amount after Reduction First day of the 2nd Lease Year of the Term $ 13,148.44 $ 52,593.76 First day of the 3rd Lease Year of the Term $ 13,148.44 $ 39,445.32 First day of the 4th Lease Year of the Term $ 13,148.44 $ 26,296.88 First day of the 5th Lease Year of the Term $ 13,148.44 $ 13,148.44 Should Tenant be in default (regardless of any notice and cure periods) as of the specified reduction date, or if Tenant otherwise has been in default as specified above beyond any applicable notice and/or cure periods, no reduction shall occur as of such applicable date. The Letter of Credit shall specifically provide that the Letter of Credit is subject to reduction in accordance with the terms of the Lease. If Tenant is then or has been in default and the Letter of Credit balance is not or was not reduced, then at the first date of the next scheduled reduction Lease Year, the Letter of Credit Amount will only be reduced by the next scheduled reduction amount and will not skip to the otherwise applicable Lease Year.
Letter of Credit Subfeature As a subfeature under the Line of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause an affiliate to issue commercial and standby letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, “Letters of Credit”); provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00). The form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole discretion. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued for a term not to exceed three hundred sixty-five (365) days, as designated by Borrower; provided however, that no Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date more than one hundred twenty (120) days beyond the maturity date of the Line of Credit. The undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit shall be reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be available for borrowings thereunder. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit agreements, applications and any related documents required by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof. Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit shall be deemed an advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to such advances; provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any reason, at the time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest applicable to advances under the Line of Credit. In such event Borrower agrees that Bank, in its sole discretion, may debit any account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the amount of any such drawing.
Letter of Credit Subfacility (a) During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, the Borrower may request the issuance of standby Letters of Credit to support obligations of a Subsidiary of the Parent which finance the working capital and business needs of a Subsidiary of the Parent by delivering to the Issuing Bank a completed Application for letters of credit in such form and with such other certificates, documents and information as the Issuing Bank may specify from time to time by no later than 12:00 noon, Philadelphia time, at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Issuing Bank) in advance of the proposed date of issuance. Each Application for issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be accompanied by an issuance fee based upon the Issuing Bank’s standard schedule of fees charged for issuing letters of credit as such may be amended from time to time. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section, the Issuing Bank will issue a Letter of Credit, provided, that each Letter of Credit shall (i) have a maximum maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, and (ii) in no event expire later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, and provided further, that in no event shall the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations at any one time exceed the lesser of (i) the L/C Sublimit and (ii) the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments minus the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding. The Issuing Bank shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Bank or any Letter of Credit Participant to exceed, any limits imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrower hereby agree that the Issuing Bank may issue upon the Borrower’s request, one or more Letter(s) of Credit which by its or their terms may be extended for additional periods of up to one year each provided that (I) the initial expiration date (or any subsequent expiration date) of each such Letter of Credit is not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, and (II) renewal of such Letter(s) of Credit, at the Issuing Bank’s discretion, shall be available upon written request from the Borrower to the Issuing Bank at least thirty (30) days (or such other time period as agreed by the Borrower and the Issuing Bank) before the date upon which notice of renewal is otherwise required. Each standby Letter of Credit shall be subject either to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time a Letter of Credit is issued (“UCP”) or the International Standby Practices (ISP98 International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590 (“ISP98”)), as determined by the Issuing Bank.
