(ii)                                  Subject to terms and conditions of this Section 3, Capital Contributions in an amount equal to (A) Purchaser’s Participation Percentage multiplied by (B) Construction Costs (as defined in the Lotte Contribution Agreement), as and when required by the Company to timely satisfy its obligations or requirements (the “Development Capital Contributions”); provided, however, (x) subject to clause (y) below, in no event shall Purchaser or Axiall Corporation’s obligation to fund or pay to the Company or otherwise incur, guaranty, or obligate themselves for or on behalf of the Company exceed individually or in the aggregate (1) the Annual Maximum Amount per Calendar Year, and (2) $225,000,000 (the “Development Capital Commitment”), and (y) notwithstanding Purchaser’s Participation Percentage, to the extent Purchaser or Axiall Corporation has not funded the total Development Capital Commitment, in calendar year 2019 Purchaser or Axiall Corporation shall fund the remaining unfunded balance of the Development Capital Commitment to satisfy Construction Costs when requested by the Board of Members.

 

For the purposes of this Agreement, (x) “Annual Maximum Amount” means the lesser of (A) $50,000,000 per Calendar Year and (B) an amount per Calendar Year that results in Axiall’s Percentage Interest adjusting to no more than 19.99% after giving effect to the contribution, and (y) “Calendar Year” means each one year period starting on January 1 and ending on December 31.
