-30-


event later than 30 days after such request has been made) and whether such consent is subject to satisfaction of any conditions precedent. If any such request is not granted within 30 days after such request has been made, the Liquidity Termination Date or Scheduled Commitment Termination Date, as the case may be shall remain unchanged. If any such request is granted within 30 days after such request has been made, the Liquidity Termination Date or Scheduled Commitment Termination Date, as the case may be, shall be extended as provided in the Administrator’s confirmatory written notice upon satisfaction of any conditions precedent specified therein.

Section 2.6. Voluntary Termination of Lenders’ Commitments. The Borrower may, in its sole discretion for any reason upon at least 30 days’ prior written irrevocable notice to the Administrator (with a copy to each Lender), terminate the Lenders’ Commitments in whole.

Section 2.7. Notes. All Loans from each Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory grid note (each such note as amended, modified, restated, extended or replaced from time to time, a “Lender Note” and collectively referred to herein as the “Lender Notes”) substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit B-1, Exhibit B-2 and Exhibit B-3 hereto, with appropriate insertions, payable to the order of such Lender. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrator in connection with the Lender Notes to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to the Lender Notes (or on any continuation of such grid, or, in lieu of making notations on such grid or any continuation thereof, at the Administrator’s option, in its records), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of the Borrower.

Section 2.8. Letters of Credit. (a) Letter of Credit Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the Lenders set forth in Section 2.8(d), agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day prior to the Commitment Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the number of outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender for the account of the Borrower would be more than 50, (ii) the L/C Obligations would exceed $100,000,000; provided that L/C Obligations attributable to standby letters of credit shall not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Facility Limit, or (iii) the aggregate Credit Exposure from time to time outstanding hereunder would exceed the lesser of (x) the Facility Limit and (y) the Borrowing Base. Each Letter of Credit may be a standby letter of credit or a commercial letter of credit; provided, however, that prior to the issuance of any commercial letters of credit hereunder, the Issuing Lender shall provide confirmation, in its sole discretion, to the Borrower and the Administrator that it is willing to issue commercial letter of credit hereunder.

Each Letter of Credit shall:

(i) be denominated in Dollars;

 

-31-


(ii) be issued to a beneficiary at the direction of an Originator with respect to a funded Eligible Receivable;

(iii) expire no later than the earlier of (A) the day that such Letter of Credit is fully drawn, (B) two Business Days prior to the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date, and (C) 364 days from the date of issuance; provided that, any Letter of Credit with a 364-day term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional periods of 364 days (which in no event shall extend beyond the date referred to in clause (A) and (B) of this paragraph); and

(iv) be subject to the Uniform Customs and/or ISP98, as set forth in the Letter of Credit Request or as determined by the Issuing Lender.

The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable law.

Amounts drawn on any Letter of Credit may not be reborrowed and the maximum amount of a Letter of Credit shall be permanently and irrevocably reduced by an amount equal to all amounts drawn thereon. Letters of Credit that have been fully drawn shall be deemed to have expired and shall not be revived. As of the Closing Date, each of the Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute, for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, a Letter of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder pursuant to Section 15.19.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.8, the Issuing Lender shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit at a time when any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements (which may include the delivery of cash collateral) with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender and satisfactory to the Issuing Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.9(a)(iii)) with respect to any such Defaulting Lender.

(b) Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit in connection with an Eligible Receivable by delivering to the Issuing Lender and the Administrator, at their respective addresses for notices specified herein, a Letter of Credit Request therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may request. Any such Letter of Credit Request must be received by the Issuing Lender and the Administrator by no later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta) time, two (2) Business Days prior to the date such Letter of Credit is to be issued or amended, or such other time as previously agreed between the Issuing Lender and the Borrower.

Upon receipt of any Letter of Credit Request, the Issuing Lender will process such Letter of Credit Request and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than two (2)

 

-32-


Business Days after its receipt of the Letter of Credit Request therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower and is required to promptly notify each Lender of such issuance and upon request by any Lender, furnish to such Lender a copy of such Letter of Credit and the amount of such Lender’s participation therein.

(c) Fees, Commissions and Other Charges. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit the L/C Fee and shall pay to the Issuing Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender the Letter of Credit Issuance Fee, each as set forth in the Fee Letter. In addition to the foregoing fees and commissions, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary third-party costs and expenses as are incurred by or charged to the Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit.

(d) L/C Participations. (i) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Pro Rata Share in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder. 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 an Advance 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 Pro Rata Share of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed. Any such reimbursement by the L/C Participants of the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to be an Advance requested by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.8(e).

(ii) Upon becoming aware of any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (i) above in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrator and each L/C Participant of the amount and due date of such required payment and such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender the amount specified on the applicable due date (which amount shall be payable in Dollars in the applicable amount determined in accordance with clause (i) above). If any such amount is paid to the Issuing Lender after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender, in addition to such amount, the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Rate as determined by the Administrator during the period from and including the date such payment is due to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Issuing Lender with

 

-33-


respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. With respect to payment to the Issuing Lender of the unreimbursed amounts described in this Section, if the L/C Participants receive notice that any such payment is due (A) prior to 1:00 p.m. on any Business Day, such payment shall be due that Business Day, and (B) after 1:00 p.m. on any Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day.

(iii) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its Pro Rata Share of such payment in accordance with this Section 2.8, the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided that, in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

(e) Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower. (i) Upon the making of any L/C Advance pursuant to any drawing or demand for payment under a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall withdraw funds from the Letter of Credit Collateral Account in an amount equal to the L/C Amounts resulting from such drawing or demand (or if the balance of funds on deposit in such account at such time is less than such L/C Amounts, such lesser amount) and apply the amount so withdrawn against the L/C Obligations resulting from such L/C Advance. The Borrower shall be obligated (whether from funds in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account or other sources or funds) to reimburse, in same day funds, in Dollars, the Issuing Lender for the amount of any L/C Advance and any taxes and any reasonable fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with the related Letter of Credit (collectively, the “L/C Amounts”).

(ii) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing or demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify each Lender, the Administrator and the Borrower of the date and amount thereof (such notice hereinafter referred to as a “Notice of L/C Draw”). Each Notice of L/C Draw shall set forth the amount of the requested drawing or demand, the amount of funds then on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, and the amount of any unreimbursed L/C Amount that will remain after the Issuing Lender withdraws funds from the Letter of Credit Collateral Account pursuant to Section 2.8(e)(i) (such amounts, the “Unreimbursed L/C Amount”). Within one Business Day of receipt of a Notice of L/C Draw which includes an Unreimbursed L/C Amount, the Borrower shall notify the Issuing Lender if the Borrower intends to reimburse the Issuing Lender for such Unreimbursed L/C Amount from other sources or funds, and the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrator and each Lender of Borrower’s intent to reimburse the Issuing Lender for such Unreimbursed L/C Amount from other sources or funds (such notice hereinafter referred to as a “Notice of Borrower Reimbursement”). Within two Business Days of receipt of a Notice of L/C Draw, unless the Lenders receive a Notice of Borrower Reimbursement for such drawing that the Borrower intends to reimburse the

 

-34-


Issuing Lender for such Unreimbursed L/C Amount, each Lender will be deemed to have received a timely Borrowing Request that such Lender make an Advance on such date in the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed L/C Amount, and the Lenders shall make such requested Advance, the proceeds of which shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the Unreimbursed L/C Amount. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to fund an Advance in accordance with this Section 2.8(e) to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any draft paid under a Letter of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.1, 2.2 or 7.2. If the Borrower has elected to pay the Unreimbursed L/C Amount with funds from other sources and shall fail to reimburse the Issuing Lender as provided above, (i) such Unreimbursed L/C Amount shall bear interest at the rate which would be payable on any Advances Outstanding which were then overdue from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full and (ii), the Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, request that the Lenders make an Advance of such Unreimbursed L/C Amount and each Lender will be deemed to have received a timely Borrowing Request that such Lender make an Advance on the date of such request in the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Unreimbursed L/C Amount, and the Lenders shall make such requested Advance, the proceeds of which shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Lender for such Unreimbursed L/C Amount.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.8 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lender, the Administrator, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.

The Borrower also agrees with the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations under Section 2.8(e) shall not be affected by, among other things, (i) the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged, (ii) any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, (iii) or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee, (iv) any change in the time, manner and place of payment of, or in any other term of all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit or any amendment or waiver or any consent to departure from the terms of any Letter of Credit or any document executed or delivered in connection with the issuance or payment thereof, or (v) any payment by the Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit against presentation of any document or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit.

The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for (i) any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit; (ii) any error in translation or interpretation of technical

 

-35-


terms; (iii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iv) the failure of any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon any Letter of Credit; or (v) any other consequences arising from causes beyond the Issuing Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s correspondents’ control, except for errors or omissions caused by the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to the Borrower. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

(g) Letter of Credit Request. To the extent that any provision of any Letter of Credit Request related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 2.8, the provisions of this Section 2.8 shall apply.

Section 2.9. Defaulting Lenders. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 15.2.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrator for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrator as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrator hereunder; second, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrator or requested by the Issuing Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Significant Event exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrator; fifth, if so determined by the Administrator and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Advances under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Issuing Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under

 

-36-


this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Significant Event exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances or funded participations in Letters of Credit in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of, and funded participations in Letters of Credit owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of, or funded participations in Letters of Credit owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.8, the “Pro Rata Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (x) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (A) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the Credit Exposure of that non-Defaulting Lender.

(iv) Promptly on demand by the Issuing Lender or the Administrator from time to time, the Borrower shall deliver to the Issuing Lender cash collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Issuing Lender (after giving effect to clause (iii) above) on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrator and the Issuing Lender (and such cash collateral shall be in Dollars). Any such cash collateral shall be deposited in a separate account with the Issuing Lender, subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Issuing Lender, as collateral (solely for the benefit of the Issuing Lender) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of outstanding L/C Obligations. Amounts in such account shall be applied by the Administrator to reimburse the Issuing Lender immediately for each Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any drawing under any Letter of Credit which has not otherwise been reimbursed by the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender.

(v) For any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender, that Defaulting Lender (A) shall not be entitled to receive any Unused Fee (as such term is defined in the Fee Letter) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender) and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any letter of credit commissions pursuant to Section 2.8(c) otherwise payable to the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit, but instead, the

 

-37-


Borrower shall pay to the non-Defaulting Lenders the amount of such letter of credit commissions in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Pro Rata Shares allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to clause (iii) above, with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Issuing Lender for its own account.

(b) If the Administrator and the Issuing Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrator will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrator may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to Section 2.9(a)(iii) above), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.10. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 6.1, or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 6.3, the Borrower may request such Lender provide an estimate of the costs and expenses that would be incurred by such Lender in connection with designating a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or assigning its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, in each case, which designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.1 or Section 6.3, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Upon receipt of such estimate, the Borrower may approve the proposed designation or assignment, in which case the Lender shall use reasonable efforts to effect the same. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such approved designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 6.1, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 6.3, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrator, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 13.1), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to its Credit Exposure, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

 

-38-


(ii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 6.1 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 6.3, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iii) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

ARTICLE III

INTEREST, FEES, ETC.

Section 3.1. Interest Rates. The Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan for the period commencing on the date such Loan is made until such Loan is paid in full (or, in the case of a CP Loan, refinanced with an Alternative Rate Loan), as follows:

(a) during each Interest Period applicable to a CP Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Commercial Paper Rate applicable to such Interest Period, plus (ii) the Applicable Margin;

(b) during each Interest Period applicable to a LIBOR Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the LIBOR Rate applicable to such LIBOR Loan for each day during such Interest Period, plus (ii) the Applicable Margin;

(c) during each Interest Period applicable to an Alternative Rate Loan other than a LIBOR Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Base Rate plus (ii) the Applicable Margin; and

(d) notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding clauses (a) and (b), in the event that a Significant Event has occurred and is continuing, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. After the date on which any principal amount of any Loan is due and payable (whether at scheduled maturity or upon acceleration thereof pursuant to Section 10.3) or after any other monetary Obligation of the Borrower arising under this Agreement shall become due and payable, the Borrower shall pay (to the extent permitted by law, if in respect of any unpaid amounts representing interest) interest (after as well as before judgment) on such amounts at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.

 

-39-


No provision of this Agreement or the Lender Notes shall require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law.

Section 3.2. Interest Payment Dates. Interest accrued on each Loan shall be payable, without duplication:

(a) on each Distribution Date prior to the Commitment Termination Date, for the relevant Interest Period, in arrears;

(b) if requested by the Administrator, on the date of any prepayment (in whole or in part) of principal outstanding, on the amount paid or prepaid (it being understood that any prepayment shall be accompanied by any amounts owing under Section 6.2);

(c) in full, on the Commitment Termination Date (whether at scheduled maturity or upon acceleration thereof pursuant to Section 10.3); and

(d) from and after the Commitment Termination Date, upon demand.

Section 3.3. Applicable Interest Rates. Each LIBOR Loan shall initially accrue interest at the One-Month LIBOR Rate. Thereafter, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may elect to convert the LIBOR Rate borne by a LIBOR Loan to the Three-Month LIBOR Rate to be effective on the first day of any calendar month; provided that the Borrower provides written notice of such election to the Lenders at least two Business Days prior to the first day of an Interest Period. Any LIBOR Loan accruing interest at the Three-Month LIBOR Rate shall not be converted to a LIBOR Loan accruing interest at the One-Month LIBOR Rate until such LIBOR Loan shall have been accruing interest at the Three-Month LIBOR Rate for three Interest Periods.

Section 3.4. Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the Issuing Lender, the Administrator and each Lender certain Fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in the Fee Letter.

Section 3.5. Computation of Interest and Fees. All interest on the Loans and all Fees and Servicing Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest, Fee or Servicing Fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days.

ARTICLE IV

REPAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS; DISTRIBUTION OF COLLECTIONS

Section 4.1. Repayments and Prepayments. On and after the Commitment Termination Date, all Collections then held or thereafter received shall be applied to Obligations in accordance with this Agreement (including Section 4.2(c)), each Lender’s Commitment shall terminate, and no further Credit Extension shall be made hereunder. Prior thereto, the Borrower:

(a) may, from time to time on any Business Day, make a prepayment, in whole or in part, of the Advances Outstanding; provided, however, that, (i) unless otherwise consented to by the Administrator, written notice (in the form of Exhibit G) of all such voluntary prepayments shall be delivered to the Administrator no later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta time), (A) one (1) Business Day prior to the prepayment thereof if the amount of the prepayment is less than 25% of the Facility Limit, (B) two (2) Business Days prior to the prepayment thereof if the amount of the prepayment is equal to or greater than 25% but less than 50% of the Facility Limit and (C) four (4) Business Days prior to the prepayment thereof if the amount of the prepayment is equal to or greater than 50% of the Facility Limit and (ii) unless otherwise consented to by the Administrator, all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000;

(b) shall, immediately upon any acceleration of the Commitment Termination Date of any Advances Outstanding pursuant to Section 10.3, (i) Cash-Collateralize the L/C Obligations and (ii) repay to the Lenders all Loans, unless, pursuant to Section 10.3.1, only a portion of the Credit Exposure is so accelerated, in which event the Borrower shall make such deposit and repayment only to the extent of the Credit Exposure so accelerated;

(c) shall, on each date when any reduction in the Facility Limit shall become effective pursuant to Section 2.6, make a prepayment of the Loans and/or Cash-Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Credit Exposure over the Facility Limit as so reduced. Each such prepayment shall be subject to the payment of any amounts required by Section 6.2.

ARTICLE VI

INCREASED COSTS, ETC.

Section 6.1. Increased Costs. If any change in Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or any Regulatory Change, in each case occurring after the date hereof:

(a) shall subject any Affected Party to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or any Loan made or funded by it, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to such Affected Party of the principal of or interest on any Loan or L/C Advance owed to or funded by it or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of any Letter of Credit issued or Loan made or funded by it (other than Excluded Taxes); or

(b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of interest rates pursuant to Section 3.1), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Affected Party; or

(c) shall change the amount of capital maintained or required or requested or directed to be maintained by any Affected Party (including, without limitation, because the assets and liabilities of any Lender are required to be consolidated with those of any other Affected Party under applicable accounting principles); or

(d) shall impose on any Affected Party any other condition affecting any Letter of Credit issued or Loan made or funded by any Affected Party;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to (i) increase the cost to or to impose a cost on (A) an Affected Party issuing any Letter of Credit funding or making or maintaining any Loan (including extensions of credit under the Liquidity Agreement or any other applicable Support Agreement, or any commitment of such Affected Party with respect to any of the foregoing), or (B) the Administrator for continuing its or the Borrower’s relationship with the Issuing Lender or the Lenders, (ii) to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under this Agreement or the Lender Notes, the Liquidity Agreement or other applicable Support Agreement with respect thereto, or (iii) in the good faith determination of such Affected Party, to reduce the rate of return on the capital of an Affected Party as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, or under the applicable Liquidity Agreement or other applicable Support Agreement, as applicable, or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a level below that which such Affected Party could otherwise have achieved, then after demand by such Affected Party to the Borrower (which demand shall be accompanied by a written statement setting forth the basis of such demand), the Borrower shall pay to Administrator on behalf of such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will (in the reasonable determination of such Affected Party) compensate such Affected Party for such increased cost or such reduction. Such written statement (which shall include calculations in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the subject matter thereof.

 

-48-


If any Affected Party has or anticipates having any claim for compensation from the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.1 and such Affected Party believes that having the facility publicly rated by two credit rating agencies would reduce the amount of such compensation by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material, such Affected Party shall provide 30 days prior written notice to the Borrower and the Servicer (a “Ratings Request”) that such Affected Party intends to request public ratings of the facility from two credit rating agencies selected by such Affected Party and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, of at least the equivalent of the A-/A3 ratings level (such ratings levels as set forth by S&P and Moody’s, respectively) (the “Required Ratings”). The Borrower and the Servicer agree that they shall reasonably cooperate with such Affected Party’s efforts to obtain the Required Ratings, and shall provide the applicable credit rating agencies (either directly or through distribution to the Administrator or Affected Party), any information requested by such credit rating agencies necessary for the purposes of providing and monitoring the Required Ratings. The Affected Party requesting the ratings shall pay the initial fees payable to the credit rating agencies for providing the Required Ratings, but any ongoing or renewal fees in connection with such ratings shall be paid for by the Borrower. Nothing in this Section 6.1 shall preclude any Affected Party from demanding compensation from the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof at any time and without regard to whether the Required Ratings shall have been obtained, or shall require any Affected Party to obtain any ratings on the facility prior to demanding any such compensation from the Borrower.

Section 6.2. Broken Funding Costs. The Borrower hereby agrees that upon demand by any Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculations of the amount being claimed), the Borrower will indemnify such Affected Party against any Broken Funding Costs. Such written statement shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the subject matter thereof.

Section 6.3. Withholding Taxes. All payments made by the Borrower hereunder (or by the Servicer, on behalf of the Borrower, hereunder) shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future Covered Taxes, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority or other taxing authority. If any Covered Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to any of the Administrator, the Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the amounts so payable to the Administrator, the Issuing Lender or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrator, the Issuing Lender or such Lender (after payment of all such Covered Taxes) all such amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified herein. Whenever any Covered Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Borrower shall send to the Administrator for its own account or for the account of the Issuing Lender or such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Covered Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrator the required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrator, the Issuing Lender and such Lender for such Covered Taxes and any incremental taxes that may become payable by the Administrator, the Issuing Lender or any Lender as a result of any such failure.

Until such time following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Servicer Event of Default or an Amortization Event as the Administrator shall notify Jarden and the Borrower in writing of the revocation of such power and authority, the Borrower, the Issuing Lender, the Lenders and the Administrator hereby appoint Jarden to act as the Servicer under the Transaction Documents.

Section 11.2.1. Authorization to Act as the Borrower’s Agent. The Borrower hereby appoints the Servicer as its agent for the following purposes: (i) selecting the amount of each requested Loan or Letter of Credit and executing Borrowing Requests and Letter of Credit Requests on behalf of the Borrower, (ii) making transfers among, deposits to and withdrawals from all deposit accounts of the Borrower for the purposes described in the Transaction Documents, (iii) arranging payment by the Borrower of all Fees, expenses, other Obligations and other amounts payable under the Transaction Documents, (iv) causing the repayment and prepayment of the Loans as required and

 

-71-


permitted pursuant to Section 4.1 and (v) executing and preparing the Monthly Reports; provided, however, that the Servicer shall act in such capacity only as an agent of the Borrower and shall incur thereby no additional obligations with respect to any Loan, and nothing herein shall be deemed to authorize the Servicer to take any action as the Borrower’s agent which the Borrower is precluded from taking itself. The Borrower irrevocably agrees that (A) it shall be bound by all proper actions taken by the Servicer pursuant to the preceding sentence, and (B) the Issuing Lender the Administrator, the Lenders and the banks holding all deposit accounts of the Borrower are entitled to accept submissions, determinations, selections, specifications, transfers, deposits and withdrawal requests, and payments from the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower.

Section 11.2.2. Servicer to Act as Collection Agent. (a) The Servicer shall service and administer the Receivables on behalf of the Borrower and the Administrator (for the benefit of the Lender Secured Parties) and shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through sub-Servicers as provided in Section 11.2.2(c), to do any and all things which it may deem reasonably necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and administration and which are consistent with this Agreement. Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Receivable or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner, grant indulgence to any Obligor if, in the Servicer’s reasonable determination, such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the Borrower or the Administrator (for the benefit of the Lender Secured Parties); provided, however, that the Servicer may not permit any modification with respect to any Receivable that would reduce the Unpaid Balance (except for actual payments thereof), or extend the due date thereof, except that the Servicer may take such actions with respect to Defaulted Receivables if such actions will, in the Servicer’s reasonable business judgment, maximize the Collections thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer in its own name or in the name of the Borrower is hereby authorized and empowered by the Borrower when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Borrower, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables.

(b) The Servicer shall service and administer the Receivables by employing such procedures (including collection procedures) and degree of care, in each case consistent with applicable law, with the Credit and Collection Policy and with prudent industry standards, as are customarily employed by the Servicer in servicing and administering receivables owned or serviced by the Servicer comparable to the Receivables. The Servicer shall not take any action to impair the Administrator’s (for the benefit of the Lender Secured Parties) security interest in any Receivable, except to the extent allowed pursuant to this Agreement or required by law.

(c) At any time while Jarden is acting as the Servicer hereunder, Jarden may delegate, and Jarden hereby advises the Lenders and the Administrator that it has delegated, to each of the Originators, as a sub-Servicer of the Servicer, certain of its

 

-72-


duties and responsibilities as the Servicer hereunder. Without the prior written consent of each of the Administrator and each Lender, Jarden shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as the Servicer to any Person other than (i) the Borrower, (ii) the Originators and (iii) with respect to certain Defaulted Receivables, outside collection agencies in accordance with its customary practices. Neither the Borrower nor any Originator shall be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of the Servicer delegated to it by Jarden. If at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Servicer Event of Default or Amortization Event, the Administrator shall designate as the Servicer any Person other than Jarden, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by Jarden to the Borrower or any Originator may, at the discretion of the Administrator, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Administrator to Jarden and to the Borrower and the applicable Originator. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) Jarden shall be and remain primarily liable to the Administrator and the Lenders for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder, (ii) the Administrator and the Lenders shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Jarden in matters relating to the discharge by the Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder, (iii) the Administrator and the Lenders shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than Jarden in order for communication to the Servicer and its sub-Servicers or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished and (iv) Jarden, at all times that it is the Servicer, shall be responsible for providing any sub-Servicer or other delegate of the Servicer with any notice given to the Servicer under this Agreement.

(d) Except as provided in the penultimate sentence of the preceding clause (c), the Administrator and the Lenders shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than Jarden in order for communication to the Servicer and its sub-Servicer or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. Jarden, at all times that it is the Servicer, shall be responsible for providing any sub-Servicer or other delegate of the Servicer with any notice given to the Servicer under this Agreement.

(e) The Servicer may take such actions as are necessary to discharge its duties as the Servicer in accordance with this Agreement, including the power to execute and deliver on behalf of the Borrower such instruments and documents as may be customary, necessary or desirable in connection with the performance of the Servicer’s duties under this Agreement (including consents, waivers and discharges relating to the Receivables).

(f) The Servicer shall keep records that readily identify and segregate transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the identity and collection status of each Receivable purchased by the Borrower from any Originator and the Purchase Price Credits.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower and the Servicer shall have established and shall maintain thereafter the following system of collecting and processing Collections of Receivables: The Obligors shall be instructed to make payments of Receivables only (i) by check, draft or money order mailed to a

Lock-Box listed on Schedule 8.12 (such payments, upon receipt in such a Lock-Box, being referred to herein as “Mail Payments”), or (ii) by wire transfer, SWIFT, ACH or other electronic payment to a Lock-Box Account.

(b) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Administrator shall have received a Lock-Box Agreement with respect to each Lock-Box Account. The Servicer’s right of access to any Lock-Box Account shall be revocable upon notice from the Administrator following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Servicer Event of Default, an Event of Default or an Incipient Bankruptcy (it being understood that an Incipient Bankruptcy shall not, in and of itself, lead to the Commitment Termination Date). In addition, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Servicer Event of Default or an Event of Default, the Servicer agrees that it shall, upon the written request of all of the Administrator, notify all Obligors under Receivables to make payment thereof to (i) one or more bank accounts and/or post-office boxes designated by the Administrator and specified in such notice or (ii) any successor Servicer appointed hereunder. Neither the Administrator nor the Lenders shall, inter alia, (x) take any action under Lock-Box Agreement or (y) deliver any notice to any Obligor, absent the existence of a Servicer Event of Default, an Event of Default or an Incipient Bankruptcy.

(c) The Servicer shall direct each applicable depository or lockbox bank pursuant to a Lock-Box Agreement to remove all Mail Payments from each Lock-Box by the close of business on each Business Day and deposit the same into a Lock-Box Account. Servicer shall process all such Mail Payments, and all other payments received in any form, on the date such payment is received, by recording the amount of the payment received from the Obligor and the applicable account or invoice number.

(d) All Collections received by any Originator or the Servicer in respect of Receivables will, pending remittance to a Lock-Box Account, be held by such Originator or the Servicer in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Administrator, on behalf of the Secured Parties, and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of any Originator or the Servicer. All such Collections shall be remitted to a Lock-Box Account within three (3) Business Days of receipt by such Originator or the Servicer.

(e) The Borrower and the Servicer hereby irrevocably waive any right to set-off or otherwise deduct any amount owing by or to them from any Collections received by them prior to remittance thereof in accordance with this Agreement.

(f) In performing its duties and obligations hereunder, the Servicer (i) shall not impair the rights of the Borrower or the Administrator, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in any Receivable, (ii) shall not amend the terms of any Receivable other than in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy and this Agreement, (iii) shall not release any goods securing a Receivable from the lien created by such Receivable except as specifically provided for herein, and (iv) shall be entitled to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any goods securing such Receivable. In the event that the Servicer shall breach any of its covenants set forth in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 11.2.3(f), the Servicer shall pay

 

-74-


the Unpaid Balance of each Receivable affected thereby on the Distribution Date following the Calculation Period in which such event occurs. For the purposes of Section 11.7 hereof, the Servicer shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 11.2.3(f) unless it shall fail to make such payment with respect to any Receivable affected by the Servicer’s noncompliance with clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 11.2.3(f) on such Distribution Date.

(g) All payments or other amounts collected or received by the Servicer in respect of a Receivable shall be applied to the Unpaid Balance of such Receivable.

Section 11.4. Agreement Not to Resign. Jarden acknowledges that the Administrator, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders have relied on Jarden’s agreement to act as the Servicer hereunder in their respective decisions to execute and deliver the respective Transaction Documents to which they are parties. In recognition of the foregoing, Jarden agrees not to resign as the Servicer voluntarily, except as required by law (as evidenced by the delivery of an outside opinion of counsel to the Administrator, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrator), without the prior written consent of each of the Administrator and each Lender.

Section 11.5. Designation of the Servicer. The Borrower agrees not to designate any Person other than Jarden as the Servicer without the prior written consent of the Administrator and each Lender.

Section 12.7. Indemnification of the Administrator. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall severally indemnify upon demand each of the Administrator and its Affiliates (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so as otherwise provided herein), pro rata, based on the amount of the Loans funded by such Lender, and hold harmless each of the Administrator and its Affiliates from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any of the Administrator and its Affiliates of any portion of such Indemnified Amounts resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 12.7.

Section 12.9. Resignation of Administrator. The Administrator may resign as Administrator upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and the Borrower and effective upon appointment of its successor as hereinafter provided.

If no successor agent is appointed prior to the end of such thirty (30) day period, the Administrator may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders, a successor agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrator and the term “Administrator” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Administrator’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrator shall be terminated.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 13.4, nothing herein shall be deemed to preclude a Conduit Lender from pledging or assigning all or any portion of its Loans to any Liquidity Bank or other Support Provider (or any successor of any thereof by merger, consolidation or otherwise) or any Affiliate of the foregoing (which may then assign all or any portion thereof so assigned or any interest therein to such party or parties as it may choose); provided, however, that so long as no Significant Event exists and is continuing, no Liquidity Bank will assign all or any portion of its Loans or Commitment to any Person without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Administrator shall promptly provide notice of any assignment to each applicable Rating Agency and the Borrower. Subject to Section 13.2, all of the aforementioned assignments shall be upon such terms and conditions as such Conduit Lender and its assignee may mutually agree.

(c) Each Lender may, with the consent of the Administrator and the Borrower, assign to an assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Loans or interests therein owned by it, together with ratable portions of its Commitment); provided that:

(i) the Borrower’s consent to any such assignment (x) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (y) shall not be required if the assignee is an Affiliate of such assigning Lender or any other Lender; and

(ii) the Borrower’s consent to any such assignment pursuant to this Section 13.1(c) shall not be required if a Significant Event shall have occurred and is continuing (and not been waived by the Lenders in accordance with Section 15.1).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 13.1, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including, without limitation, rights to payment of principal and interest) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or security interest granted to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Administrator; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 13.2. Documentation. The assigning Lender shall deliver to each assignee an assignment, in such form as such Lender and the related assignee may agree, duly executed by such Lender, assigning any such Loan to the assignee, and the assigning Lender shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the

assignee may reasonably request, in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the assignee’s right, title and interest in and to such Loan, and to enable the assignee to exercise or enforce any rights hereunder or under the Lender Note evidencing such Loan.

Section 13.3. Rights of Assignees. Subject to the provisions of Section 13.4, upon the foreclosure of any assignment of any Loans made for security purposes, or upon any other assignment of any Loan from a Lender pursuant to this Article XIII, the respective assignee receiving such assignment shall assume the Commitment (if any) and all other obligations of the assignor Lender hereunder, and shall have all of the rights of a Lender hereunder to the extent of such assignment with respect to such Loans and all references to a Lender in Section 6.1 shall be deemed to apply to such assignee to the extent of such assignment.

Section 13.4. Transfer and Maintenance of Register. The Administrator shall maintain a register (each, a “Register”) on which it will record the Loans made to the Borrower by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of such Loans. The Administrator shall, upon receipt of instruments evidencing the transfer of the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made by a Lender pursuant to this Agreement, record such transfer in the Register and such transfer shall be effective upon recordation. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the respective Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans. If a Lender sells participations in any Loan, it shall maintain a Register with respect to such participations and shall permit the transfer of such participations only if and when the transfer is recorded in the Register. The Administrator will permit the Borrower to review such Register as reasonably needed for the Borrower to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or under any applicable law or governmental regulation or procedure.

As used in this Section 15.15, the term “Face Amount” means, with respect to outstanding Commercial Paper Notes or advances under Support Agreements, (x) the face amount of any such Commercial Paper Notes issued on a discount basis, and (y) the principal amount of, plus the amount of all interest accrued and to accrue thereon to the stated maturity date of, any such Commercial Paper Notes issued on an interest-bearing basis or any such advances under a Support Agreement.

Section 15.16. Certain Tax Matters. Notwithstanding any other express or implied agreement to the contrary, the parties agree and acknowledge that each of them and each of their employees, representatives, and other agents may disclose without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such Person relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the Loans and transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 15.17. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender and Liquidity Bank that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or Liquidity Bank to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 15.18. Restatement Except as otherwise stated in this Section 15.18, as of the date hereof, the terms, conditions, agreements, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Existing Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety, and as so amended and restated, replaced and superseded, by the terms, conditions, agreements, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, except that nothing herein or in the other Transaction Documents shall impair or adversely affect the continuation of the liability of the Borrower for the Obligations or any Lien heretofore granted, pledged and/or assigned to the Administrator, the Issuing Lender or any Lender. The amendment and restatement contained herein shall not, in any manner, be construed to constitute payment of, or impair, limit, cancel or extinguish, or constitute a novation in respect of, the Debt and other obligations and liabilities of the Borrower evidenced by or arising under the Existing Agreement, and the Liens and security interests securing such Indebtedness and other obligations and liabilities, shall not in any manner be impaired, limited, terminated, waived or released.

The principal amount of the “Loans” (as defined in the Existing Agreement) outstanding as of the Closing Date under the Existing Agreement shall constitute Loans hereunder. On the Closing Date, the Lenders shall make such purchases and sales of interests in the Advances Outstanding as of such date so that each Lender is then holding its Pro Rata Share of Advances Outstanding based on their Commitments after giving effect to this Agreement.

All references to the “Loan Agreement” in the Transaction Documents shall from and after the Closing Date be references to this Agreement, as the same may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time

Section 15.19. Existing Letters of Credit On the Closing Date, (i) each Existing Letter of Credit, to the extent outstanding, shall be automatically and without further action by the parties thereto shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued pursuant to Section 2.8 and subject to the provisions thereof, and for this purpose the fees specified in Section 2.8 shall be payable (in substitution for any fees set forth in the applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreements or applications relating to such Existing Letters of Credit) as if such Existing Letters of Credit had been issued on the Closing Date, (ii) the face amount of such Existing Letters of Credit shall be included in the calculation of L/C Obligations and (iii) all liabilities of the Borrower, with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations.
