In furtherance thereof, upon delivery of any Swing Line Loan Notice, the Borrower shall also submit (and, if it fails to so submit, shall be deemed to have submitted) a Borrowing Notice for the Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) on the next Business Day in an amount equal to the amount to be borrowed pursuant to such Swing Line Loan Notice. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in the applicable Borrowing Notice delivered (or deemed delivered) to the Administrative Agent available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on such day, whereupon each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan under its Commitments to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.03(d)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be deemed to have requested that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(d)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(d) by the time specified in Section 2.03(d)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Base Rate Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein

(v) For the avoidance of doubt, all Borrowings of Loans to refinance Swing Line Loans, and all fundings of risk participations in Swing Line Loans, shall be made first from Term Loans and at such time as the Term Loan Commitments have been fully utilized, from New Loans.

(e) Repayment of Participations .

(i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender.

(f) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender . The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Pro Rata Share of Base Rate Loans or Pro Rata Share of the risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.03 to refinance any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

 

28

 


(g) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender . The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

(i) (A) If the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary Disposes of any property or assets (other than in a Disposition of Intellectual Property not prohibited hereunder), which in the aggregate results in the realization or receipt by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower shall cause the Loans to be prepaid, on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the date of the realization or receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received; provided that no such prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.04(b)(i)(A) with respect to such portion of such Net Cash Proceeds that the Borrower shall have, on or prior to such date, given written notice to the Administrative Agent of its intent to reinvest in accordance with Section 2.04(b)(i)(B) (which notice may only be provided if no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing);

(B) With respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized or received with respect to any Disposition (other than any Disposition involving the sale of Equity Interests in any Subsidiary of the Borrower), the Borrower may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets useful for its business (including, without limitation, Investments in its Subsidiaries) within (x) twelve (12) months following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds or (y) if the Borrower enters into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds within twelve (12) months following receipt thereof,

 

29

 


within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of such legally binding commitment; provided that (i) so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall not be permitted to make any such reinvestments (other than pursuant to a legally binding commitment that the Borrower entered into at a time when no Event of Default was continuing) and (ii) if any Net Cash Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested at any time after delivery of a notice of reinvestment election or if any Net Cash Proceeds are not reinvested by the expiration of the relevant time periods set forth above, an amount equal to any such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in this Section 2.04 within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower reasonably determines that such Net Cash Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested or the expiration of such time periods.

(ii) If the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs or issues any Indebtedness not expressly permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.03, the Borrower shall cause Loans to be prepaid in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(iv) If any Subsidiary (other than any Restricted Subsidiary) of the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiaries makes any dividend or distribution (in each case, whether in cash or Cash Equivalents) with respect to any Equity Interests in such Subsidiary, or any other payment on account of the purchase, redemption, retirement, defeasance, acquisition, cancellation or termination of any such Equity Interest, or on account of any return of capital to Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, or makes an advance or loan to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, then the Borrower shall cause Loans to be prepaid in an amount equal to 50% of such dividends, distributions and loans on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days after the receipt thereof; provided that any proceeds from any Excluded Distributions shall not be required to be so repaid.

Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the prepayment, which shall be pro rata across all Facilities.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.04, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (unless agreed to by the Administrative Agent), if any prepayment of Eurodollar Loans

 

30

 


is required to be made under Section 2.04(b), other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with Section 2.04(b). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with Section 2.04(b).

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that, prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (i) any amendment, amendment and restatement or other modification of this Agreement is entered into or (ii) any voluntary prepayment of all, but not less than all, of the Term Loans is made with the proceeds of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred through a debt or equity securities offering) (which voluntary prepayment shall be deemed to have been made even if a portion of the Term Loans are replaced, converted re-evidenced with, into or by such Indebtedness so long as all, but not less than all, of the Term Loans are so prepaid), in connection with which, in the case of either clause (i) or clause (ii), the Applicable Rate with the respect to the Term Loans is decreased (or the interest rate applicable to such Indebtedness is lower than the interest rate applicable to the Term Loans), the Borrower shall pay to each holder of a Term Loan, concurrently with such amendment, amendment and restatement or other modification of this Agreement or such voluntary prepayment, a prepayment fee equal to 1% of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans then outstanding.

For the avoidance of doubt, no such fee shall be payable in connection with (i) any prepayment from the proceeds of the issuance of a debt or equity securities offering or (ii) any prepayment from the proceeds of debt with an interest rate that is equal to or higher than that applicable to the Term Loans.

The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Borrowing and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations.
