Unless a Lender shall have notified the Swing Line Lender, prior to its making any Swing Line Loan, that any applicable condition precedent set forth in Sections 4.1 or 4.2 for the Company or Sections 4.3 or 4.4 for any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower had not then been satisfied, such Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.2(e) to repay Swing Line Loans and to purchase participating interests pursuant to this Section 2.2(e) shall be unconditional, continuing, irrevocable and absolute and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, (w) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Agent, the Swing Line Lender or any other Person, (x) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default, (y) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower, or (z) any other circumstances, happening or event whatsoever. In the event that any Lender fails to make payment to the Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.2(e), the Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest otherwise payable to such Lender hereunder until the Agent receives such payment from such Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied. In addition to the foregoing, if for any reason any Lender fails to make payment to the Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.2(e), such Lender shall be deemed, at the option of the Agent, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the applicable Swing Line Loan in the amount of such Revolving Loan, and such interest and participation may be recovered from such Lender together with interest thereon at the applicable interest rate for each day during the period commencing on the date of demand and ending on the date such amount is received. On the Facility Termination Date, each Borrower shall repay in full the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Line Loans owing by it.

Section 2.3             Determination of Dollar Amounts; Required Payments; Termination.
 
(a)                 The Agent will determine the Dollar Amount of:
 
(i)  each Credit Extension as of the date three Business Days prior to (x) in the case of an Advance, the Borrowing Date or, if applicable, date of conversion/continuation of such Advance, and (y) in the case of a Facility LC, the date for which a Borrower has requested issuance of such Facility LC, and
 
(ii)  all outstanding Credit Extensions on and as of the last Business Day of each month and on any other Business Day as may elected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion.
 
Each day upon or as of which the Agent determines Dollar Amounts as described in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) is herein described as a “Computation Date” with respect to each Credit Extension for which a Dollar Amount is determined on or as of such day. If at any time (A) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, (x) the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure (calculated, with respect to those Credit Extensions denominated in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars, as of the most recent Computation Date with respect to each such Credit Extension) exceeds the Aggregate Commitment by more than $1,000,000, or (y) the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Credit Exposure for Loans and Facilities in currencies other than Dollars exceeds the applicable sublimits designated in Section 2.1(ii) or Section 2.1(iii) by more than 105%, then the Company shall prepay, or shall cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to prepay, the Loans in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to eliminate any such excess, within two Business Days after notice from the Agent requiring such prepayment, and (B) other than as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the principal amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Commitment or the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Credit Exposure for Loans and Facilities in currencies other than Dollars exceeds the applicable sublimits designated in Section 2.1(ii) or Section 2.1(iii), the Company shall promptly pay, or cause to be paid, the amount of such excess.
28

(b)                The Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure and all other unpaid Obligations owing by each Borrower shall be paid in full by each such Borrower on the Facility Termination Date.
 
If any prepayment required under this Section 2.3 would exceed the aggregate Loans at such time and any LC Obligations are outstanding, then the amount of such excess shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account and held as collateral to be applied to any of the Obligations as determined by the Agent, provided that the Agent shall promptly apply such amounts to any Loans that thereafter become outstanding to the extent it is not legally or contractually prohibited from doing so.
 
Section 2.4             Ratable LoansEach Advance hereunder (other than any Swing Line Loan) shall consist of Revolving Loans made from the several Lenders ratably according to their Pro Rata Shares.
 
Section 2.5            Types of Advances. The Advances may be Revolving Loans consisting of Floating Rate Advances or Eurocurrency Advances, or a combination thereof, selected by a Borrower in accordance with Sections 2.9 and 2.10, or Swing Line Loans selected by a Borrower in accordance with Section 2.2.
 
Section 2.6            Commitment Fee; Reductions in Aggregate Commitment. The Company agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share a commitment fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Fee Rate on the average daily Available Aggregate Commitment from the date hereof to and including the Facility Termination Date, payable in arrears on each Payment Date hereafter and on the Facility Termination Date, provided that, solely for purposes of determining such commitment fees, Swing Line Loans shall not count as usage of any Lender’s Commitment for the purpose of calculating the commitment fee due hereunder.  The Company may permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitment in whole, or in part ratably among the Lenders in integral multiples of $10,000,000, upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such reduction, provided, however, that the amount of the Aggregate Commitment may not be reduced below the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure.  All accrued commitment fees shall be payable on the effective date of any termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Credit Extensions hereunder.  For purposes of calculating the commitment fee hereunder, the principal amount of each Credit Extension made in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall be at any time the Dollar Amount of such Credit Extension as determined on the most recent Computation Date with respect to such Credit Extension.
 
Section 2.7           Minimum Amount of Each Advance.  Each Eurocurrency Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $2,000,000 and in multiples of $500,000 if in excess thereof (or the Approximate Equivalent Amounts if denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars), and each Floating Rate Advance (other than an Advance to repay Swing Line Loans) shall be in the minimum amount of $2,000,000 and in multiples of $500,000 if in excess thereof, provided, however, that any Floating Rate Advance may be in the amount of the Available Aggregate Commitment.
29

Section 2.8             Optional Principal Payments. Any Borrower may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans), or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $2,000,000 or any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Floating Rate Advances upon one Business Day’s prior written notice to the Agent.  Any Borrower may from time to time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Eurocurrency Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $2,000,000 or any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (or the Approximate Equivalent Amount if denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars), any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Advances upon three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent.  Any Borrower may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Swing Line Loans, or, in a minimum amount of $100,000 and increments of $100,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Swing Line Loans, with notice to the Agent and the Swing Line Lender by 12:00 noon (local time) on the date of repayment.
 
Section 2.9            Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for New Advances. Other than with respect to Swing Line Loans (which shall be governed by Section 2.2), a Borrower shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency applicable thereto from time to time.  Each Borrower shall give the Agent irrevocable written notice (a “Borrowing Notice”) not later (i) than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least one Business Day before the Borrowing Date of each Floating Rate Advance and three Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars or (ii) not later than 11:00 a.m., London time at least three Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, specifying:

(e)
 in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency applicable thereto.
 
Section 2.10        Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances. Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to this Section 2.10 or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.8.  Each Eurocurrency Advance shall continue as a Eurocurrency Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time:
 
(a)           each such Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless (x) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.8 or (y) the applicable Borrower shall have given the Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance either continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period or be converted into a Floating Rate Advance; and
 
(b)          each such Eurocurrency Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Advance in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month unless (x) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.8 or (y) the applicable Borrower shall have given the Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) on or before 11:00 a.m. local time three Business Days prior to the end of the current Interest Period requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period.
30

Subject to the terms of Section 2.7, each Borrower may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of an Advance owing by it (other than a Swing Line Loan) of any Type into any other Type or Types of Advances denominated in the same Agreed Currency; provided that any conversion of any Eurocurrency Advance shall be made on, and only on, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.  Each Borrower shall give the Agent irrevocable written notice (a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) of each conversion of an Advance owing by it or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least one Business Day, in the case of a conversion into a Floating Rate Advance, three Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars, or four Business Days in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, specifying:
 
(i)             the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation, and
 
(ii)            the Agreed Currency, amount and Type(s) of Advance(s) into which such Advance is to be converted or continued and, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
 
Section 2.11          Method of Borrowing. On each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans, if any, (i) if such Loan is denominated in Dollars, not later than noon, Chicago time, in Federal or other funds immediately available to the Agent, in Chicago, Illinois at its address specified in or pursuant to Article 14 and, (ii) if such Loan is denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, not later than noon, local time, in the city of the Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency, in such funds as may then be customary for the settlement of international transactions in such currency in the city of and at the address of the Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency.  Unless the Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article 4 has not been satisfied, the Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the applicable Borrower at the Agent’s aforesaid address.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11, to the extent that a Loan made by a Lender matures on the Borrowing Date of a requested Loan, such Lender shall apply the proceeds of the Loan it is then making to the repayment of principal of the maturing Loan.
 
Section 2.12          Changes in Interest Rate, etc. Each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made or is converted from a Eurocurrency Advance into a Floating Rate Advance pursuant to Section 2.10 to but excluding the date it becomes due or is converted into a Eurocurrency Advance pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day.  Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the day such Swing Line Loan is made to but excluding the date it is paid, at a rate per annum separately agreed to among the applicable Borrower and the Swing Line Lender.  Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Advance will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate.  Each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by the Agent as applicable to such Eurocurrency Advance based upon the applicable Borrower’s selections under Sections 2.9 and 2.10 and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof.  No Interest Period may end after the Facility Termination Date.
31

Section 2.13         Rates Applicable After Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.9, 2.10 or 2.12, during the continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 9.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that no Advance may be made as, converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Advance.  During the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 9.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that (i) each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum, (ii) each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum and (iii) the LC Fee shall be increased by 2% per annum, provided that, during the continuance of a Default under Section 8.7 or 8.8, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above and the increase in the LC Fee set forth in clause (iii) above shall be applicable to all Credit Extensions without any election or action on the part of the Agent or any Lender.
 
Section 2.14          Method of Payment.
 
(a)                  Each Advance shall be repaid and each payment of interest thereon shall be paid in the currency in which such Advance was made or, where such currency has converted to the Euro, in the Euro.  All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Agent at (except as set forth in the next sentence) the Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article 14, or at any other Lending Installation of the Agent specified in writing by the Agent to the Company, shall be initiated by 12:00 noon (local time) on the date when due and shall (except (i) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations for which the LC Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the Lenders, or (ii) with respect to repayments of Swing Line Loans, or (iii) as otherwise specifically required hereunder) be applied ratably by the Agent among the Lenders.  All payments to be made by the Borrowers hereunder in any currency other than Dollars shall be made in such currency on the date due in such funds as may then be customary for the settlement of international transactions in such currency for the account of the Agent, at its Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency and shall be applied ratably by the Agent among the Lenders.  Each payment delivered to the Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Agent received at, (x) with respect to Floating Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars, its address specified pursuant to Article 14 or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Agent from such Lender and (y) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, in the funds received from the applicable Borrower at the address of the Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency.  The Agent is hereby authorized to charge any account of any Borrower maintained with JPMorgan or any of its Affiliates for each payment of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees due from such Borrower as it becomes due hereunder.  Each reference to the Agent in this Section 2.14 shall also be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to the LC Issuer, in the case of payments required to be made by any Borrower to the LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.22(f).
 
(b)                  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Advance in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which the Advance was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or a Borrower is not able to make payment to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by such Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Borrowers take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.
32

Section 2.15          Advances to Be Made in Euro. If any Advance to be made would, but for the provisions of this Section 2.15, be capable of being made in either the Euro or in a National Currency Unit, such Advance shall be made in the Euro.
 
Section 2.16          Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness.
 
(a)           Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
 
(b)           The Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period and selection of Agreed Currency with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the original stated amount of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from a Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.
 
(c)           Paragraphs (a) and (b) above and the entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant thereto shall be deemed notes of the Borrowers issued pursuant to this Agreement.  The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.
 
(d)           Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by an additional promissory note or, in the case of the Swing Line Lender, additional promissory notes representing its Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans, respectively, substantially in the form of Exhibit C, with appropriate changes for notes evidencing Swing Line Loans.  In such event, the Company shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Note or Notes payable to the order of such Lender.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by each such additional Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 13.1) be represented by one or more additional Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 13.1, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such additional Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (a) and (b) above.
 
Section 2.17        Telephonic Notices.Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Agreed Currencies and Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices (although the Agent may not accept telephonic notices with respect to any Advances to be made in any Agreed Currencies other than Dollars to a Borrower) made by any person or persons the Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of such Borrower, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given telephonically.  Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is requested by the Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice signed by an Authorized Officer.  If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.
33

Section 2.18         Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date hereof, on any date on which the Floating Rate Advance is prepaid, whether due to acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity.  Interest accrued on that portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Floating Rate Advance converted into a Eurocurrency Advance on a day other than a Payment Date shall be payable on the date of conversion.  Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurocurrency Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity.  Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period.  Interest on Eurocurrency Advances (other than Eurocurrency Advances denominated in British Pounds Sterling), commitment fees and LC Fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year; interest on Floating Rate Advances and Eurocurrency Advances denominated in British Pounds Sterling shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365/366-day year.  Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is initiated prior to 12:00 noon (local time) at the place of payment.  If any payment of principal of or interest on an Advance shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.
 
Section 2.19         Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Commitment ReductionsPromptly after receipt thereof, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Swing Line Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder.  Promptly after notice from the LC Issuer, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of a Facility LC hereunder.  The Agent will notify each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Eurocurrency Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate.
 
Section 2.20         Lending InstallationsEach Lender will book its Loans and its participation in any LC Obligations and the LC Issuer will book the Facility LCs at the appropriate Lending Installation listed on Schedule 2 or such other Lending Installation designated by such Lender or LC Issuer in accordance with this Section 2.20.  All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility LCs, participations in LC Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and the LC Issuer may, by written notice to the Agent and the Company in accordance with Article 14, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans will be made by it or Facility LCs will be issued by it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made.  If the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 as a result of any change in a Lending Installation, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Installation for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
34

Section 2.21          Non‑Receipt of Funds by the Agent. Unless a Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Agent may assume that such payment has been made.  The Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption.  If such Lender or Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Agent, repay to the Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day for the first three days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (y) in the case of payment by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

Section 2.22          Facility LCs.

(b)           Participations.  Upon the issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of a Facility LC in accordance with this Section 2.22, the LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the LC Issuer, a participation in such Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to its Pro Rata Share.
 
(c)           Notice.  Subject to Section 2.22(a), a Borrower shall give the LC Issuer notice prior to 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least five Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC, specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby.  Upon receipt of such notice, the LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC.  The issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article 4 (the satisfaction of which the LC Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to the LC Issuer and that the applicable Borrower shall have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as the LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility LC Application”).  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(d)          LC Fees.  The Company shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, (i) with respect to each standby Facility LC, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time on the average daily undrawn stated amount under such standby Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date, and (ii) with respect to each commercial Facility LC, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time on the average daily undrawn stated amount under such commercial Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date (each such fee described in this sentence an “LC Fee”).  The Company shall also pay to the LC Issuer for its own account (x) at the time of issuance of each Facility LC, a fronting fee in an amount equal to 0.125% of the initial stated amount thereof, such fee to be payable on the date of such issuance, and (y) documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance or Modification of and draws under Facility LCs in accordance with the LC Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges as in effect from time to time.
 
(e)           Administration; Reimbursement by Lenders.  Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand for payment under such Facility LC, the LC Issuer shall notify the Agent and the Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid by the LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment date (the “LC Payment Date”).  The responsibility of the LC Issuer to the applicable Borrower and each Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Facility LC.  The LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to Letters of Credit in which no participations are granted, it being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by the LC Issuer, each Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of any Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse the LC Issuer on demand for (i) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by the LC Issuer under each Facility LC to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.22(f) below, plus (ii) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date of the LC Issuer’s demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to the relevant Loan.
 
(f)            Reimbursement by Borrower.
 
(i)             Each Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by the LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility LC issued for the account of, or upon the application of, such Borrower, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that neither any Borrower nor any Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by such Borrower or Lender to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (A) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC issued by it complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (B) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC.
 
(ii)  If any Borrower at any time fails to repay a Reimbursement Obligation on or before the applicable LC Payment Date, such unpaid Reimbursement Obligation shall at that time be automatically converted into an obligation denominated in Dollars and such Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to borrow Revolving Loans from the Lenders, as of the date of the advance giving rise to the Reimbursement Obligation, equal in amount to the Dollar Amount of the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation. Such Revolving Loans shall be made as of the date of the payment giving rise to such Reimbursement Obligation, automatically, without notice and without any requirement to satisfy the conditions precedent otherwise applicable to an Advance of Revolving Loans. Such Revolving Loans shall constitute a Floating Rate Advance, the proceeds of which Advance shall be used to repay such Reimbursement Obligation. If, for any reason, any Borrower fails to repay a Reimbursement Obligation on the day such Reimbursement Obligation arises and, for any reason, the Lenders are unable to make or have no obligation to make Revolving Loans, then such Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of two percent (2%) per annum plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day (or, in the case of a Reimbursement Obligation denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, at the rate determined by the LC Issuer in good faith to represent the LC Issuer’s cost of overnight or short- term funds in the applicable Agreed Currency plus the then effective Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Advances). The Company agrees to indemnify the LC Issuer against any loss or expense determined by the LC Issuer in good faith to have resulted from any conversion pursuant to this Section 2.22(f)(ii) by reason of the inability of the LC Issuer to convert the Dollar Amount received from the Borrowers or from the Lenders, as applicable, into an amount in the applicable Agreed Currency of such Facility LC equal to the amount of such Reimbursement Obligation.
36

(iii)           The LC Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from any Borrower for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued by the LC Issuer, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to the LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.22(e).
 
(g)           Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.22 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which such Borrower may have or have had against the LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC.  Each Borrower further agrees with the LC Issuer and the Lenders that the LC Issuer and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and such Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among such Borrower, any of its Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of any Borrower or of any of its Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee.  The LC Issuer shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Facility LC.  Each Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the LC Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon such Borrower and shall not put the LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to such Borrower.  Nothing in this Section 2.22(g) is intended to limit the right of any Borrower to make a claim against the LC Issuer for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.22(f)(i).
 
(h)       Actions of LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.22, the LC Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC.
37

(i)            Indemnification.  Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, the LC Issuer and the Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Facility LC or any actual or proposed use of any Facility LC, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which the LC Issuer may incur by reason of or in connection with (i) the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to the LC Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect any rights any Borrower may have against any Defaulting Lender) or (ii) by reason of or on account of the LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC which specifies that the term “Beneficiary” included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary, but which Facility LC does not require that any drawing by any such successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the LC Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that no Borrower shall be required to indemnify any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (y) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC, and provided further that the obligations of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under this Section 2.22(i) is limited to obligations in respect of any Facility LC issued for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower.  Nothing in this Section 2.22(i) is intended to limit the obligations of any Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement.
 
(j)            Lenders’ Indemnification.  Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, indemnify the LC Issuer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by a Borrower) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Facility LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.22 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.
 
(k)           Facility LC Collateral Account.  Each Borrower agrees that it will, upon the request of the Agent or the Required Lenders and until the final expiration date of any Facility LC issued for the account of such Borrower and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to the LC Issuer or the Lenders in respect of any such Facility LC, maintain a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Agent (the “Facility LC Collateral Account”) at the Agent’s office at the address specified pursuant to Article 14, in the name of such Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and in which such Borrower shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section 9.1.  Each Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuer, a security interest in all of such Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations.  The Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit of JPMorgan having a maturity not exceeding 30 days.  Nothing in this Section 2.22(k) shall either obligate the Agent to require any Borrower to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Agent to release any funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in each case other than as required by Section 9.1.
38

(l)            Rights as a Lender.  In its capacity as a Lender, the LC Issuer shall have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender.
 
(m)         Existing Letters of Credit.  All Existing Letters of Credit issued shall be deemed (i) Facility LCs issued under this Agreement and shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and (ii) issued on the Effective Date for purposes of determining fees payable hereunder.
 
Section 2.23         Market DisruptionNotwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article 2 and Article 4 with respect to any Credit Extension in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Credit Extension any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Agent, the Required Lenders and, if the requested Credit Extension is to be a Facility LC, the LC Issuer, make it impracticable for the Loans or Facility LC comprising such Credit Extension to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by a Borrower, then the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to such Borrower, the Lenders, and, if the requested Credit Extension is to be a Facility LC, the LC Issuer, and such Loans or Facility LC shall not be denominated in such Agreed Currency but shall, in the case of Loans, be made on such Borrowing Date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be, as Floating Rate Loans, or, in the case of a Facility LC, be issued in Dollars, in a face amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the face amount specified in the related notice of a request for issuance of such Facility LC received from a Borrower, unless in either case such Borrower notifies the Agent at least one Business Day before the Borrowing Date or date of issuance of such Facility LC that (i) it elects not to obtain such Credit Extension on such date or (ii) it elects to obtain such Credit Extension on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Credit Extension would in the opinion of the Agent, the Required Lenders and, if the requested Credit Extension is to be a Facility LC, the LC Issuer, be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice or notice of a request for issuance of a Facility LC, as the case may be.
 
Section 2.24          Judgment CurrencyIf for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Agent’s main Chicago office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non‑appealable judgment is given.  The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency.  If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 12.2, such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the applicable Borrower.
39

Section 2.25        Replacement of Lender. If (i) the Company is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 to make any additional payment to any Lender or if any Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to convert Floating Rate Advances into, Eurocurrency Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.3 or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (any Lender so affected an “Affected Lender”), or (ii) if the Company has requested a modification or waiver that requires the consent of all Lenders under Section 9.2 and the Required Lenders have approved such request but one or more Lenders have not (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”), the Company may elect (if such amounts continue to be charged, such suspension is still effective or such Lenders continue to withhold their approval) to replace such Affected Lender or Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Advances and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender or Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit A and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender or Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 13.1 applicable to assignments, and (ii) the Company shall pay to such Affected Lender or Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender or Non-Consenting Lender by the Company hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender or Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5, and (B) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 3.4 had the Loans of such Affected Lender or Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender(s).
 
Section 2.26          Collateral Security; Further Assurances(a)  To secure the payment when due of the Secured Obligations (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), the Company shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Collateral Agent, Collateral Documents granting or providing for the following:
 
(i)            Security Agreements granting a first priority, enforceable Lien and security interest, subject to the Liens permitted by this Agreement and subject to the sharing provisions to be contained in the Intercreditor Agreement, on all present and future accounts, chattel paper, commercial tort claims, deposit accounts, documents, farm products, fixtures, chattel paper, equipment, general intangibles, goods, instruments, inventory, investment property, letter-of-credit rights (as those terms are defined in the Illinois Uniform Commercial Code) and all other personal property of the Company and of each Guarantor that is a Domestic Subsidiary, subject to any exclusions described in the Intercreditor Agreement or approved by the Required Lenders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Liens granted by the Company or any such Guarantor on the Capital Stock of any Foreign Subsidiary such Lien (i) shall not exceed 65% (or such greater percentage that, due to a change in an applicable law after the date hereof, (1) could not reasonably be expected to cause the undistributed earnings of such Foreign Subsidiary as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes to be treated as a deemed dividend to such Foreign Subsidiary’s U.S. parent and (2) could not reasonably be expected to cause any material adverse tax consequences) of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.956-2(c)(2)) and 100% of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock not entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.956-2(c)(2)) in each Foreign Subsidiary directly owned by the Company or any such Guarantor, (ii) shall be subject to the terms of Section 6.9(e), and (iii) shall not be required with respect to the Capital Stock of any Foreign Subsidiary organized under the laws of India or China unless required by the Agent or the Required Lenders.

(iii)         Any other Collateral required under the Senior Note Purchase Documents.
 
(b)                As a condition to approval of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower other than Modine Holding GmbH, the Agent may require such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary required to be a Guarantor with respect to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, Collateral Documents requested by the Agent from each such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, granting a first priority, enforceable Lien and security interest, subject to the Liens permitted by this Agreement and securing the Obligations owing by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, on all present and future assets of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries.  Additionally, to the extent required by the Agent or the Required Lenders at any time after a Default has occurred or if the Agent determines that the Company will not incur a material tax liability as result of the following, the Company shall cause, to the extent legally permitted and to the extent not prohibited by a restriction permitted under Section 7.14 hereof, each other Foreign Subsidiary required by the Agent or the Required Lenders to execute and deliver such Collateral Documents requested by the Agent to grant a first priority (subject to the Liens permitted by this Agreement), enforceable Lien and security interest on all present and future assets of such Foreign Subsidiary securing the Obligations, Rate Management Obligations and Banking Services Obligations owing by each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower.
 
(c)                On or before the Effective Date or such later date agreed to by the Agent (provided that the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete such Collateral Documents as soon as practical, including without limitation such matters with respect to the existing pledges of 65% of the Capital Stock of Foreign Subsidiaries), the Company shall cause all Collateral Documents as reasonably requested by the Agent, in each case duly executed on behalf of the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, granting to the Lenders and the Agent the Collateral and support specified in Section 2.26 hereof, together with: (v) such resolutions, certificates and opinions of counsel as reasonably requested by the Agent; (w) the recordation, filing and other action (including payment of any applicable taxes or fees) in such jurisdictions as the Lenders or the Agent may deem necessary or appropriate with respect to the Collateral Documents, including the filing of financing statements, Mortgages and other filings which the Lenders or the Agent may deem necessary or appropriate to create, preserve or perfect the liens, security interests and other rights intended to be granted to the Lenders or the Agent thereunder, together with Uniform Commercial Code record searches and other Lien searches in such offices as the Lenders or the Agent may request; (x) evidence that the casualty and other insurance required pursuant to the Loan Documents is in full force and effect; (y) originals of all instruments and certificates representing all of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock and other securities and instruments to be pledged thereunder, with appropriate stock powers, endorsements and other powers duly executed in blank; and (z) such other evidence that Liens creating a first priority security interest, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, in the Collateral shall have been created and perfected as requested by the Agent and the satisfaction of all other conditions in connection with the Collateral and the Collateral Documents as reasonably requested by the Agent, including without limitation all opinions of counsel, title work, surveys, environmental reports and other documents and requirements requested by the Agent, provided that it is acknowledged that the Agent is not requiring mortgagee title insurance, new surveys or new environmental reports at this time, but may require such items and shall require such other items in connection with the real estate as are required by the Noteholders.
41

(d)                The Company agrees that it will promptly notify the Agent of the formation, acquisition or existence of any Subsidiary that is required to be a Guarantor or the acquisition of any assets on which a Lien is required to be granted and that is not covered by existing Collateral Documents.  The Company agrees that it will promptly execute and deliver, and cause each Guarantor to execute and deliver, promptly upon the request of the Agent, such additional Collateral Documents, Guaranties and other agreements, documents and instruments, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, sufficient to grant the Guaranties and Liens contemplated by this Agreement and the Collateral Documents.  The Company shall deliver, and cause each Guarantor to deliver, to the Agent all original instruments payable to it with any endorsements thereto required by the Agent.  Additionally, the Company shall execute and deliver, and cause each Guarantor to execute and deliver, promptly upon the request of the Agent, such certificates, legal opinions, lien searches, organizational and other charter documents, resolutions and other documents and agreements as the Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith.  The Company shall use its best efforts to cause each lessor of real property to it or any Subsidiary where any material Collateral is located to execute and deliver to the Agent an agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agent duly executed on behalf of such lessor waiving any distraint, lien and similar rights with respect to any property subject to the Collateral Documents and agreeing to permit the Collateral Agent to enter such premises in connection therewith.  The Company shall execute and deliver, and cause each Guarantor to execute and deliver, promptly upon the reasonable request of the Agent, such agreements and instruments evidencing any intercompany loans or other advances among the Company and its Subsidiaries, or any of them, and all such intercompany loans or other advances owing by any of the Borrowers or a Guarantor shall be, and are hereby made, subordinate and junior to the Secured Obligations and no payments may be made on such intercompany loans or other advances upon and during the continuance of a Default unless otherwise agreed to by the Required Lenders.
 
Section 2.27        Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
 
(a)                fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.6;

(b)               the Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.2); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;

(c)                 if any Swing Line Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i)            all or any part of the Swing Line Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Outstanding Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments;
42

(ii)           if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall within one Business Day following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay such Swing Line Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the LC Issuer only the Company’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.1 for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii)          if the Company cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Company shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.22(d) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv)         if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.6 and Section 2.22(d) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and

(v)          if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the LC Issuer or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.22(d) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the LC Issuer until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(d)                 so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and the LC Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Facility LC, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Company in accordance with Section 2.27(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swing Line Loan or any newly issued or increased Facility LC shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.27(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Parent of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swing Line Lender or the LC Issuer has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and the LC Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Facility LC, unless the Swing Line Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Company or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Agent, the Company, the Swing Line Lender and the LC Issuer each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.

(iii)               the amount of each such increase in the Aggregate Commitments shall not be less than $5,000,000 (or such other minimum amount agreed to between the Agent and the Company), and shall not cause the Aggregate Commitments plus any New Credit Facilities to exceed $250,000,000;

(iv)               the Borrowers and any applicable Lender or lender not theretofore a Lender, shall execute and deliver to the Agent, a lender addition and acknowledgement Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent (each such agreement, a “Lender Addition and Acknowledgment Agreement”) and acknowledged by the Agent and each Borrower;

(v)                 no existing Lender shall be obligated in any way to increase its Commitment;

YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES
Section 3.1           Yield Protection.
 
(a)                 If any Change of Law:
 
(i)            subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to any Taxes, or changes the basis of taxation of payments (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) to any Lender or the LC Issuer in respect of its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or
 
(ii)           imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances), or
 
(iii)         imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer of making, funding or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans (including, without limitation, any conversion of any Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Loan denominated in Euro), or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer in connection with its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein held or interest or LC Fees received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or the LC Issuer as the case may be,
 
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans (including, without limitation, any conversion of any Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Loan denominated in Euro) or Commitment or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, or to reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, in connection with such Eurocurrency Loans, Commitment or Facility LCs or participations therein, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, the Company shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction in amount received.
 
(b)                Non-U.S. Reserve Costs or Fees.  If any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive of any jurisdiction outside of the United States of America or any subdivision thereof (whether or not having the force of law), imposes or deems applicable any reserve requirement against or fee with respect to assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation, or the LC Issuer, and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans to, or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs upon the request of, or of making or maintaining its Commitment to, the Borrowers or to reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer in connection with such Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or Commitment, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, the Company shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it for such increased cost or reduction in amount received, provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate any Lender for such non-U.S. reserve costs or fees to the extent that an amount equal to such reserve costs or fees is received by such Lender as a result of the calculation of the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to clause (i)(b) of the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate.”  In the case of Loans by a Lender from its Lending Installation in the United Kingdom, the Borrowers shall reimburse such Lender, promptly upon demand by such Lender and to the extent the Lender is not otherwise compensated for such amounts hereunder, for any mandatory costs of meeting mandatory capital reserve requirements and regulatory fees required by any regulatory bodies in the United Kingdom, including without limitation the Bank of England, the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation.
46

Section 3.2             Changes in Capital Adequacy RegulationsIf a Lender or the LC Issuer determines the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or the LC Issuer, any Lending Installation of such Lender or the LC Issuer or any corporation controlling such Lender or the LC Issuer is increased as a result of a Change in Law, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, the Company shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital or liquidity which such Lender or the LC Issuer determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Outstanding Credit Exposure or its Commitment to make Loans and issue or participate in Facility LCs, as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s policies as to capital adequacy and liquidity).
 
Section 3.3             Availability of Types of AdvancesIf any Lender determines that maintenance of its Eurocurrency Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the force of law, or if the Required Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type, currency and maturity appropriate to match fund Eurocurrency Advances are not available or (ii) the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Advances, then the Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurocurrency Advances and require any affected Eurocurrency Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4.
 
Section 3.4             Funding IndemnificationIf any payment of a Eurocurrency Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurocurrency Advance is not made on the date specified by a Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, such Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurocurrency Advance.
 
Section 3.5             Taxes.
 
(a)                 All payments by each Borrower to or for the account of any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from any such payment or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after the required deduction or withholding has been made (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.5) such applicable Recipient (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholding been made.
47

(b)                 In addition, each Borrower hereby agrees to timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or, at the option of the Agent, timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.5, the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt of a Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.
 
(c)                Each Borrower hereby, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify each Recipient for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including, without limitation, any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.5) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or relating thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Tax were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date the Recipient makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.
 
(d)                Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 30 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.1(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this paragraph (d).
 
(e)                 (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.5(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
 
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,
48

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)  in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;

(2)  executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)  any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
 
(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
49

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f)                  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.5 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.5), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.5 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f)  (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
 
(g)                Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.5 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Obligations and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
 
(h)                For purposes of this Section 3.5, the term “Lender” includes any LC Issuer and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
 
Section 3.6             Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurocurrency Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrowers to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurocurrency Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender.  Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Company (with a copy to the Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5.  Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.  Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurocurrency Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Eurocurrency Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not.  Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Company of such written statement.  The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

72

(b)                If at any time while any Default is continuing, the Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, the Agent may make demand on the Borrowers to pay, and the Borrowers will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.
 
(c)                 The Agent may at any time or from time to time after funds are deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, apply such funds to the payment of the Obligations and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders or the LC Issuer under the Loan Documents.
 
(d)                At any time while any Default is continuing, neither any Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through any Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account.  After all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Aggregate Commitment has been terminated, any funds remaining in the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the Agent to the applicable Borrower or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time.
 
(e)                If, within 30 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 8.7 or 8.8 with respect to any Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the Agent shall, by notice to the Company, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination.
 
Section 9.2             AmendmentsSubject to the provisions of this Article 9, the Required Lenders (or the Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrowers may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrowers hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall  (a) increase  the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (b) reduce the principal amount of any Advance or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (c) postpone the Facility Termination Date or the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Advance, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (d) change Section 12.2 or in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, except to the extent permitted hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (e) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the  written consent of each Lender; (f) permit the Company to assign its rights under this Agreement without the written consent of each Lender; (g) release or terminate any material Guaranty except to the extent required or permitted hereunder or in connection with any permitted sale of any Guarantor without the written consent of each Lender; (h) release all or substantially all of the Collateral except to the extent required or permitted hereunder without the written consent of each Lender; (i) increase the Aggregate Commitment, except as set forth in Section 2.28, without the written consent of each Lender; or (j) amend this Section 9.2 without the written consent of each Lender.
73

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) no amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Agent, no amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Swing Line Lender or any Swing Line Loans shall be effective without the written consent of the Swing Line Lender, and no amendment of any provision relating to the LC Issuer shall be effective without the written consent of the LC Issuer and (ii) this Agreement may be amended in accordance with the terms of Section 2.28.  The Agent may waive payment of the fee required under Section 13.1 without obtaining the consent of any other party to this Agreement.
 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the Agent may, with the consent of the Company only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as may be reasonably necessary or advisable to cure any error, ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency in order to more accurately reflect the intent of the parties, provided that (x) prior written notice of such proposed cure shall be given to the Lenders and (y) the Required Lenders do not object to such cure in writing to the Agent within five Business Days of such notice.
 
Section 9.3             Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders, the LC Issuer or the Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Credit Extension notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Credit Extension shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence.  Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 9.2, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth.  All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders until the Obligations have been paid in full.

The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any other (except to the extent to which the Agent is authorized to act as such).  The Obligations of each Borrower are several and not joint, except to the extent that any Borrower has executed a Guaranty with respect to the Secured Obligations of another Borrower.  The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.  This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that the parties hereto expressly agree that the Arranger shall enjoy the benefits of the provisions of Sections 10.6,10.10 and 11.6 to the extent specifically set forth therein and shall have the right to enforce such provisions on its own behalf and in its own name to the same extent as if it were a party to this Agreement.
 
Section 10.6          Expenses; Indemnification.
 
(a)                The Borrowers shall reimburse the Agent and the Arranger for any costs, internal charges and out‑of‑pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys for the Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Agent) paid or incurred by the Agent or the Arranger in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication, distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet), review, amendment, modification, and administration of the Loan Documents.  The Borrowers also agree to reimburse the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger and the Lenders for any costs, internal charges and out‑of‑pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys for the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger and the Lenders, which attorneys may be employees of the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger or the Lenders) paid or incurred by the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger or any Lender in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Loan Documents.  Expenses being reimbursed by the Borrowers under this Section include, without limitation, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Reports described in the following sentence.  The Borrowers acknowledge that from time to time JPMorgan may prepare and may distribute to the Lenders (but shall have no obligation or duty to prepare or to distribute to the Lenders) certain audit reports (the “Reports”) pertaining to the Company’s or any of its Subsidiary’s assets for internal use by JPMorgan from information furnished to it by or on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries, after JPMorgan has exercised its rights of inspection pursuant to this Agreement.
 
(b)                Each Borrower hereby further agrees to indemnify the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger and each Lender, their respective affiliates, and each of their directors, officers and employees against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger or any Lender or any affiliate is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated hereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Credit Extension hereunder except to the extent that they are determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification.  The obligations of each Borrower under this Section 10.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.  This Section 10.6(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

Section 10.7          Numbers of DocumentsAll statements, notices, closing documents, and requests hereunder shall be furnished to the Agent with sufficient counterparts so that the Agent may furnish one to each of the Lenders.
 
Section 10.8          Accounting TermsExcept as provided to the contrary herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted and all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles, as in effect from time to time; provided that, if the Company notifies the Agent that the Company requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in Agreement Accounting Principles or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Agent notifies the Company that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in Agreement Accounting Principles or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of Agreement Accounting Principles as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until  such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision  amended in accordance herewith.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement, the determination of whether a lease is to be treated as an operating lease or capital lease shall be made without giving effect to any change in accounting for leases pursuant to Agreement Accounting Principles resulting from the implementation of proposed Accounting Standards Update (ASU) Leases (Topic 840) issued August 17, 2010, or any successor proposal.  For purposes of calculating the Applicable Margin, the Applicable Fee Rate, all financial covenants and all other covenants, any Acquisition or any sale or other disposition outside the ordinary course of business by the Company or any Subsidiary of any asset or group of related assets in one or a series of related transactions, the net proceeds from which exceed $10,000,000,  including the incurrence of any Indebtedness and any related financing or other transactions in connection with any of the foregoing, occurring during the period for which such matters are calculated shall be deemed to have occurred on the first day of the relevant period for which such matters were calculated on a pro forma basis acceptable to the Agent.

Section 10.9         Severability of Provisions.  Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.

The relationship between the Borrowers on the one hand and the Lenders, the LC Issuer and the Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Borrower. Neither the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrowers to review or inform the Borrowers of any matter in connection with any phase of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiary’s business or operations. Each Borrower agrees that neither the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger nor any Lender shall have liability to any Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought. Neither the Agent, the LC Issuer, the Arranger nor any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and each Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by any Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

The Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company or any Subsidiary or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that any Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, the Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given the Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that the Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing. Each Lender hereby agrees as follows: (a) such Lender is deemed to have requested that the Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each report prepared by the Agent or another Person showing the results of appraisals, field examinations, audits or other reports pertaining to the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ assets from information furnished by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries prepared by or on behalf of the Agent (the “Supplemental Reports”); (b) such Lender expressly agrees and acknowledges that JPMorgan, either individually, as Agent, as Collateral Agent or in any other capacity, (i) makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Supplemental Report or any of the information contained therein, or (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Supplemental Report; (c) such Lender expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Supplemental Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Collateral Agent, the Agent, JPMorgan, or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries and will rely significantly upon the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as well as on representations of the personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries and that JPMorgan, either individually, as Agent, as Collateral Agent or in any other capacity, undertakes no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Supplemental Reports; (d) such Lender agrees to keep all Supplemental Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share any Supplemental Report with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and not to distribute any Supplemental Report to any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, such Lender agrees (i) that JPMorgan, either individually, as Agent, as Collateral Agent or in any other capacity, shall not be liable to such Lender or any other Person receiving a copy of any Supplemental Report for any inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Supplemental Report, (ii) to conduct its own due diligence investigation and make credit decisions with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries based on such documents as such Lender deems appropriate without any reliance on the Supplemental Reports or on JPMorgan, either individually, as Agent, as Collateral Agent or in any other capacity, (iii) to hold JPMorgan, either individually, as Agent, as Collateral Agent or in any other capacity, and any such other Person preparing a Supplemental Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Supplemental Report in connection with any Credit Extensions that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to any Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, any Obligations and (iv) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold JPMorgan, either individually, as Agent, as Collateral Agent or in any other capacity, and any such other Person preparing a Supplemental Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorney fees) incurred by JPMorgan, either individually, as Agent, as Collateral Agent or in any other capacity, and any such other Person preparing a Supplemental Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Supplemental Report through the indemnifying Lender.

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS
 
Section 12.1          Setoff.  In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Borrower becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or any Default occurs, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender to or for the credit or account of such Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Secured Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, shall then be due.
82

Section 12.2         Ratable Payments.  If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Outstanding Credit Exposure (other than payments of Swing Line Loans and payments received pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure.  If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure.  In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of its Commitments or Loans;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

Ineligible Institution” means (a) a natural person, (b) a Defaulting Lender, (c) the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or (d) a company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof; provided that, such company, investment vehicle or trust shall not constitute an Ineligible Assignee if it (x) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Loans or Commitments, (y) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (z) has assets greater than $25,000,000 and a significant part of its activities consist of making or purchasing commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 13.1, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 9.6 and Article 11).  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.1 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.
84

(iv)  The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and Outstanding Credit Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the LC Issuer and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v)  Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.2(e), 2.21, 2.22(b), (e) or (j), 3.5(d), 10.6(c), 11.7 or 12.2, the Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon.  No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c)            (i)  Any Lender may, without the consent of the Company, the Agent, the LC Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the 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 Borrowers, the Agent, the LC 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 proviso to Section 9.2 that affects such Participant.  Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 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 12.1 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.2 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, 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 Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "Participant Register"); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any Commitments, Loans, Facility LC’s or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loans, Facility LC’s 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 Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
85

(ii)  A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent.  A Participant not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender.

(d)  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 13.2          Dissemination of InformationEach Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or assignee permitted under Section 13.1 or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including without limitation any information contained in any Reports, provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 10.11 of this Agreement.
 
Section 13.3          Tax TreatmentIf any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee which is not incorporated under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5(e).

The Applicable Margin and Applicable Fee Rate shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing table based on the Company’s Status as reflected in the then most recent Financials.  Adjustments, if any, to the Applicable Margin or Applicable Fee Rate shall be effective five Business Days after the Agent has received the applicable Financials.  If the Company fails to deliver the Financials to the Agent at the time required pursuant to Section 6.1, then the Applicable Margin and Applicable Fee Rate shall be the highest Applicable Margin and Applicable Fee Rate set forth in the foregoing table until five days after such Financials are so delivered.  The Applicable Margin and Fee Rate shall be set at Level III as of the Effective Date and will be adjusted for the first time thereafter based on the Financials for the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2013.
