Subject to the limitations in Section 3.1.3 and elsewhere herein, payments and prepayments that are applied to reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan may be reborrowed through Revolving Loan Advances. Each Lender’s Revolving Loan Facility is its Pro-Rata Share of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility. Upon any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility Limit pursuant to this Agreement, each Lender’s Revolving Loan Facility will automatically reduce by such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share of such reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility Limit.

3.1.2. Option for Extended Terms . At the election of Reseller upon providing one (1) Business Day’s notice and subject to the limits set forth in Section 3.1.1 , Revolving Loan Advances may be used to pay for Floorplanned Inventory on the Payment Due Date for such Floorplanned Inventory (each such Revolving Loan Advance may be referred to herein as an “EXTENDED PAY OUTSTANDING”). Specifically payment for identified Floorplanned Inventory (by Transaction Statement) cannot be designated beyond the Extended Payment Due Date.

3.1.3. Limitation on Revolving Loan Advances . No Revolving Loan Advance will be made which would result in the Aggregate Revolving Loans exceeding the Revolving Loan Maximum Available Amount and no Revolving Loan Advance will be made on or after the Termination Date. Lenders may, however, in their absolute discretion make such Revolving Loan Advances, but shall not be deemed by doing so to have increased the Revolving Loan Maximum Available Amount and shall not be obligated to make any such Revolving Loan Advances thereafter. The “REVOLVING LOAN MAXIMUM AVAILABLE AMOUNT” (which can be a negative number) on any date shall be a Dollar amount equal to the least of (a) the amount by which (i) the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility Limit exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans, plus (B) the Letter of Credit Exposure, (b) the amount by which (i) the Total Facility Limit exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) the Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (B) the Interim Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (C) the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans, plus (D) the Letter of Credit Exposure, and (c) the amount by which (i) the Borrowing Base exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) the Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (B) the Interim Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (C) the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans, plus (D) the Letter of Credit Exposure, plus (E) the amount of the Other Creditor Indebtedness (unless a subordination agreement satisfactory to Administrative Agents has been executed between Administrative Agents and the holder of such Other Creditor Indebtedness). The maximum amount of the Swingline Loans on any date shall be Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) (the “MAXIMUM SWINGLINE AMOUNT”). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, at no time may the Aggregate Floorplan Loans, Interim Floorplan Loans, Aggregate Revolving Loans (including Extended Pay Outstandings), Swingline Loans and the Letter of Credit Exposure exceed the Total Facility Limit.

3.1.4. Revolving Notes . At the request of a Lender, the obligation of Reseller hereunder to repay such Lender’s Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender in a maximum principal amount equal to the amount of its Revolving Loan Facility and otherwise satisfactory to Administrative Agents.

3.1.5. Borrowing Base . The “BORROWING BASE” on any date shall equal the sum of:

(a) 85% of the total outstanding principal balance of all Eligible Accounts that are not Eligible Government Accounts, as certified in the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently furnished to Administrative Agents as required in Section 14.15.1.1 ; plus

(b) 90% of the total outstanding principal balance of all Eligible Government Accounts, as certified in the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently furnished to Administrative Agents as required in Section 14.15.1.1 ; plus

(c) 100% of the cost of the Floorplanned Inventory as certified in the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently furnished to Administrative Agents as required in Section 14.15.1.1 ; minus

3.2.

 

Floorplan Loans.

3.2.1. Floorplan Loan Facility Generally . Subject to the terms herein, each Lender shall, by funding such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share thereof as provided for herein, make available to Reseller such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share (as listed on Exhibit 3 ) of Floorplan Loan Advances not to exceed, in the aggregate, the Floorplan Loan Maximum Available Amount. The “FLOORPLAN LOAN MAXIMUM AVAILABLE AMOUNT” on any date shall be a Dollar amount equal to the amount by which (a) the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Facility Limit exceeds (b) the sum of (i) the Aggregate Revolving Loans (including the Extended Pay Obligations), plus (ii) the outstanding Swingline Loans, plus (iii) the Letter of Credit Exposure plus , (iv) the Interim Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (v) the Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (vi) the amount of the Other Creditor Indebtedness (unless a subordination agreement satisfactory to Administrative Agents has been executed among Administrative Agents and the holder(s) of such Other Creditor Indebtedness).

All Floorplan Loan Advances for Floorplanned Inventory will be made directly to Approved Vendors and not to Reseller. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, payments and prepayments that are applied to reduce the Aggregate Floorplan Loans may be reborrowed through subsequent Floorplan Loan Advances, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Loan

Documents. From and after the date on which Administrative Agents have actual knowledge of an Event of Default under Section 17.1.1 or under Section 17.1.11 , no further Approvals will be issued and, except with respect to unfunded Approvals for Floorplan Loan Advances issued prior to knowledge of such Event of Default, no further Floorplan Loan Advances shall be made. Each Lender shall be obligated to fund its Pro Rata Share of all Floorplan Loan Advances for Approvals once issued (except any Approvals issued contrary to the terms of the preceding sentence) regardless as to whether at the time of issuance there is an Existing Default or after the date of issuance of any Approval an Event of Default occurs. From and after the date on which Administrative Agents have actual knowledge of any other Event of Default, no further Approvals will be issued if CPC so chooses in its discretion to no longer issue Approvals or if Required Lenders direct CPC to no longer issue Approvals, and if CPC so chooses or Required Lenders so direct, except with respect to unfunded Approvals, no further Floorplan Loan Advances shall be made. The Floorplan Loan Facility will not be evidenced by promissory notes.

3.2.2. Interim Floorplan Loan Advances . To reduce the frequency of fundings of Floorplan Loan Advances by Lenders, but subject to the limitations in Section 3.2.4 and elsewhere herein, CPC may in its absolute discretion make Interim Floorplan Loan Advances for the account of and benefit of Reseller with respect to an Approval issued by CPC from time to time from the Effective Date, to the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Facility. From and after the date on which Administrative Agents have actual knowledge of an Event of Default under Section 17.1.1 or under Section 17.1.11 , no further Interim Floorplan Loan Advances shall be made. From and after the date on which Administrative Agents have actual knowledge of any other Event of Default, at the sole discretion of Administrative Agents, no further Interim Floorplan Loan Advances shall be made. Subject to the limitations in Section 3.2.4 and elsewhere herein, payments and prepayments that are applied to reduce the Interim Floorplan Loan may be reborrowed for new Inventory purchases through Interim Floorplan Loan Advances. The Interim Floorplan Loan Facility will not be evidenced by promissory notes.

3.2.3. Terminations of Vendor Agreements.

(i) Upon termination of a Vendor Agreement or upon a material adverse change with respect to a Vendor Agreement, CPC may in its absolute discretion, cease to fund requests for Approvals and make Floorplan Loan Advances with respect to such Vendor (each, a “VENDOR TERMINATION”). If a Vendor Agreement is terminated by a Vendor, CPC agrees to provide written notice to Reseller of such termination within one Business Day of CPC’s receipt of such termination notice (each, a “PRE-TERMINATION NOTICE”) from the Vendor, and Reseller agrees that if there is no Existing Default, the provision to Reseller by CPC of the same period of pre-termination notice as provided to CPC by the applicable terminating Vendor shall be given and is reasonable and sufficient.

(ii) If a Vendor Termination occurs due to the termination of a Vendor Agreement by CPC, Reseller agrees that if there is no Existing Default, 60 days prior notice of such Vendor Termination shall be given and is reasonable and sufficient. During either notice period described above, CPC may make Interim Floorplan Loan Advances as provided in Section 3.2.2 , and Lenders will continue to fund Floorplan Loan Advances for Approvals (which have not been cancelled by CPC prior to the shipment of Inventory by the terminating Vendor) issued on or before the expiration of such notice period and in either case, repayment shall be in accordance with the applicable Transaction Statement and Monthly Billing Statement.

(iii) Reseller will not be relieved from any obligation to Administrative Agents or Lenders arising out of Floorplan Loans or Interim Floorplan Loans made before the effective termination date of the Vendor Termination or made after the effective termination date of the Vendor Termination in connection with Approvals issued on or before such effective termination date, which Approvals have not been cancelled by CPC prior to the shipment of Inventory by the terminating Vendor. Notwithstanding a termination of a Vendor Agreement as described above, Administrative Agents and Lenders will retain all of their rights, interests and remedies hereunder and in all Collateral until Reseller has indefeasibly paid all of the Loan Obligations in full in cash, all Letters of Credit have expired and the Letter of Credit Exposure is irrevocably reduced to zero.

3.2.4. Limitations on Interim Floorplan Loan Advances . The maximum amount of the Interim Floorplan Loan amount on any date shall be Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000). Administrative Agents shall not be obligated to make any particular Interim Floorplan Loan Advance, the making of any particular Interim Floorplan Loan Advance at any particular time being absolutely discretionary. Administrative Agents will not without the prior consent (which may be written or oral) of each Lender, knowingly make any Interim Floorplan Loan Advance which would cause the aggregate amount of the Interim Floorplan Loan plus the Aggregate Floorplan Loan to exceed the limitations set forth herein as of the date immediately prior to the making of any such Interim Floorplan Loan Advance. Administrative Agents shall not be obligated to fund any Interim Floorplan Loan Advances after the effective date of termination of the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Facility or the Interim Floorplan Loan Facility.

3.2.5. Operation of Floorplan Loan Facility and Interim Floorplan Loan Facility . Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Floorplan Loan Facility and Interim Floorplan Loan Facility may be used by Reseller from time to time to purchase Floorplanned Inventory from a Vendor approved by Administrative Agents in their sole and absolute discretion (each an “APPROVED VENDOR” and, collectively, the “APPROVED VENDORS”).

3.2.6. Floorplan Loan Approvals . Reseller and each Lender acknowledge and agree that: (i) CPC may issue Approvals on a date that is prior to the date of the funding of any Floorplan Loan Advance or Interim Floorplan Loan Advance that are based on such Approvals; (ii) once an Approval has been issued, then Administrative Agents may, and may require Lenders, to fund the related Advance at any time, notwithstanding (A) any Default or Event of Default that may arise on or prior to the date of any such Advance, (B) whether the Loan Obligations have been accelerated, (C) whether the Facilities have been terminated, or (D) whether any such Advance shall occur after the effective date of termination of the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Facility for an Approval issued on or prior to such date; and (iii) each Lender shall be obligated to fund its Pro-Rata Share of any such Advance once an Approval has been issued for such Advance and after receipt of an invoice by CPC from the applicable Approved Vendor regardless of whether such Advance has been funded by CPC. A request from an Approved Vendor (with respect to Reseller) to CPC to finance Floorplanned Inventory will be deemed to be a request from Reseller for a Floorplan Loan Advance or an Interim Floorplan Loan Advance, as the case may be.

3.2.7. Inventory not Available for Floorplan Loans and Interim Floorplan Loans . Only Approved Vendors will be eligible to receive proceeds of Aggregate Floorplan Loans and Interim Floorplan Loans for Floorplanned Inventory. Administrative Agents or Required Lenders may, at any time and with reasonable notice to Reseller, elect not to finance any inventory sold by particular Approved Vendors, including any Approved Vendors who are in default of their obligations to CPC or with respect to which CPC or Administrative Agents deem themselves reasonably insecure. Except with respect to Approvals issued by CPC on or before the effective date of the termination of the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Facility, Lenders shall not be obligated to fund any Floorplan Loan Advances after such date.

3.2.8. Repurchase Agreements . CPC has entered into agreements with Vendors who are expected to receive proceeds of the Aggregate Floorplan Loans and the Interim Floorplan Loans (each being a “VENDOR AGREEMENT” and collectively, the “VENDOR AGREEMENTS”). Neither Administrative Agents, CPC nor any Lender makes any representation or warranty regarding the Vendor Agreements, including regarding the enforceability thereof, whether any particular item of Inventory purchased by Reseller is subject to repurchase rights, or any repurchase rights that may be set forth therein. Each Lender and Reseller acknowledges and agrees that CPC may take or refrain from taking any actions under or in connection with the Vendor Agreements in CPC’s Permitted Discretion. No Vendor is a third party beneficiary of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

3.2.9. Floorplan Loan Pay Down Provision . Regardless of the payment terms pertaining to any Loans or anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if at the time of any determination, the sum of Reseller’s total outstanding Loan Obligations exceeds the Borrowing Base, Reseller will immediately pay to Administrative Agents the sum of such excess.

 

3.3.

 

Swingline Facility.

3.3.1. Swingline Advances . To reduce the frequency of fundings of Revolving Loan Advances by Lenders, but subject to the limitations in Section 3.3.3 and elsewhere herein, CPC may (provided an Advance Request in the form of Exhibit 7.13 is received by CPC) in its absolute discretion make Swingline Advances to Reseller from time to time from the Effective Date to the Termination Date. From and after the date on which Administrative Agents have actual knowledge of an Event of Default under Section 17.1.1 or Section 17.1.11 , no further Swingline Advances shall be made. Subject to the limitations in Section 3.3.3 and elsewhere herein, payments and prepayments that are applied to reduce the Swingline Loan may be reborrowed through Swingline Advances.

3.3.2. Termination of Swingline Facility . CPC may terminate the Swingline Facility at any time in its absolute discretion. If CPC terminates the Swingline Facility, Reseller agrees that no prior notice of any kind is required. Reseller will not be relieved from any obligation to CPC arising out of the Swingline Facility made before the effective termination date of the Swingline Facility. Notwithstanding a termination of the Swingline Facility, Administrative Agents and Lenders will retain all of their rights, interests and remedies hereunder and in all Collateral until Reseller has indefeasibly paid all of the Loan Obligations in full in cash, all Letters of Credit have expired and the Letter of Credit Exposure is irrevocably reduced to zero.

3.3.3. Limitations on Swingline Advances . CPC shall not be obligated to make any particular Swingline Advance, the making of any particular Swingline Advance at any particular time being absolutely discretionary. In any event, no Swingline Advance will be made on or after the Termination Date, and no Swingline Advance will be made which would result in the Swingline Loan exceeding the Maximum Swingline Amount. CPC may, however, in its absolute discretion make such Swingline Advances, but shall not be deemed by doing so to have increased the Maximum Swingline Amount and shall not be obligated to make any such Swingline Advance thereafter. CPC will not, without the prior consent (which may be written or oral) of each Lender, knowingly make any Swingline Advance which would cause the aggregate amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan to exceed the Revolving Loan Maximum Available Amount as of such date immediately prior to the making of any such Swingline Advance. The Maximum Swingline Amount on any date for any Swingline Advance shall be a Dollar amount equal to the lesser of (a) Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) less the outstanding principal amount of any Swingline Loans and (b) the amount by which the Revolving Loan Maximum Available Amount as of such date exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Loans.

 

3.4.

 

Letter of Credit Facility.

3.4.1. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Letter of Credit Issuer will issue standby letters of credit and commercial (documentary) letters of credit for the account of Reseller from time to time from the Effective Date to the Termination Date, but only if the Letter of Credit Exposure will not as a result of such issuance exceed the least of (a) Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000), (b) the amount by which (i) the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility Limit exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) the outstanding principal amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loans, plus (B) the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans, (c) the amount by which (i) the Total Facility Limit exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) the Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (B) the Interim Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (C) the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans, plus (D) the outstanding principal amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loans, and (d) the amount by which (i) the Borrowing Base exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) the Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (B) the Interim Floorplan Loan Advances, plus (C) the outstanding principal amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loans, plus (D) the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans, plus (E) the amount of the Other Creditor Indebtedness (unless a subordination agreement satisfactory to Administrative Agents has been executed between Administrative Agents and the holder of such Other Creditor Indebtedness). At the request of Reseller, Letter of Credit Issuer together with the Administrative Agents and the Lenders will consider in their sole discretion, the increase of the Letter of Credit Exposure to an amount in excess of Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000), provided that such increase shall not increase the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility Limit.

3.4.2. On the Effective Date, Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each other Lender, and such other Lender shall be deemed to have purchased and received from Letter of Credit Issuer, a pro-rata undivided interest and participation in each Letter of Credit listed on Schedule 3.4.2 , the reimbursement obligation of Reseller with respect thereto, and any guaranty thereof or collateral therefor. After the Effective Date, immediately upon the issuance by Letter of Credit Issuer of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each other Lender, and such other Lender shall be deemed to have purchased and received from Letter of Credit Issuer, a pro-rata undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit, the reimbursement obligation of Reseller with respect thereto, and any guaranty thereof or collateral therefor. Each Lender’s (including Letter of Credit Issuer’s) pro-rata undivided interest shall be the same as its Pro-Rata Share of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility.

 

11


 

3.4.3. Subject to the terms below, the expiration date of any Letter of Credit will not be later than the earlier of (a) the first anniversary of the date of issuance or (b) a Business Day that is not later than the date which is 25 days prior to the Termination Date; provided , however, that the expiration date for a Letter of Credit may be later than such date if Letter of Credit Issuer and Administrative Agents each consent to such issuance and Reseller provides to Letter of Credit Issuer at the time of issuance cash collateral satisfactory to Letter of Credit Issuer and Administrative Agents as security for Reseller’s obligation to reimburse Letter of Credit Issuer for 105% of all draws and expenses thereunder (“CASH COLLATERAL”). The Cash Collateral is a part of the Collateral. Reseller agrees that (a) should Letter of Credit Issuer not qualify as a “Lender” upon the Effective Date, or (b) if a Letter of Credit has been issued and the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility is subsequently terminated or the Letter of Credit Facility is subsequently terminated or a Termination Date will occur so that the expiry of such Letter of Credit(s) is beyond the Termination Date, then Reseller shall, (i) on the Effective Date in the case of clause (a) above, or (ii) within five Business Days prior to the Termination Date in the case of clause (b) above, provide Letter of Credit Issuer with Cash Collateral. In the case of clause (a) above, such Cash Collateral shall be released and refunded to Reseller on the date on which Letter of Credit Issuer becomes a Lender hereunder. Administrative Agents and Lenders shall be entitled to make one or more Revolving Loans to provide Cash Collateral if Reseller does not timely provide Cash Collateral and all such Revolving Loans shall be a part of the Loan Obligations secured by the Collateral. Letter of Credit Issuer shall hold Cash Collateral for the benefit of Lenders and Administrative Agents as security for the Letters of Credit and the other Loan Obligations in an account at Letter of Credit Issuer in the name of Letter of Credit Issuer.

3.4.4. Should Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., resign as Letter of Credit Issuer and should any subsequent Letter of Credit Issuer subsequently resign as a Lender under the terms of this Agreement, then such Letter of Credit Issuer shall also resign as Letter of Credit Issuer and all Letter of Credit obligations then outstanding shall be assumed by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. shall thereafter become Letter of Credit Issuer.

 

3.5.

 

Termination/Maturity/Renewal.

3.5.1. At any time there is an Existing Default irrespective of any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Administrative Agents or Required Lenders may terminate the Facilities, accelerate the Loan Obligations or take such other actions as they may be permitted to take hereunder (including under Section 17.3 ), the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity. Notwithstanding a termination, Administrative Agents and Lenders will retain all of their rights, interests and remedies hereunder and in all Collateral until Reseller has indefeasibly paid all of the Loan Obligations in full in cash, all Letters of Credit have expired and the Letter of Credit Exposure is irreversibly zero.

3.5.2. Reseller may, at any time, elect to terminate the Facilities, provided that Reseller pays to Administrative Agents, for the ratable benefit of Lenders (a) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans (b) all interest accrued hereunder with respect to the Loans, if any, to the date set for termination, plus (c) a prepayment fee equal to $410 times the number of days from and including the date set for termination to and including the second anniversary of the Effective Date.

Notwithstanding a termination, Administrative Agents and Lenders will retain all of their rights, interests and remedies hereunder and in all Collateral until Reseller has indefeasibly paid all of the Loan Obligations in full in cash, all Letters of Credit have expired and the Letter of Credit Exposure is irreversibly zero. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if CPC’s relationship is terminated with an Approved Vendor such that Reseller may no longer obtain Floorplan Loan Advances with respect to such Approved Vendor, then Reseller shall not be obligated to pay the foregoing prepayment fee if within 60 days of the termination of the relationship between CPC and such Approved Vendor, Reseller elects to terminate the Facilities and make all payments required by this Section (other than the prepayment fee) within 60 days after such election to terminate.

3.5.3. If the Facilities are not sooner terminated as contemplated by this Agreement, then, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Facilities shall automatically terminate on the Termination Date (defined below) unless no fewer than 60 days prior to the Termination Date, Administrative Agents, Reseller, and all of Lenders affirmatively agree in writing, in each of their respective sole and absolute discretion, to renew the Facilities for an additional 365-day period on the terms and conditions contained herein (a “RENEWAL”). If no Renewal has occurred, “TERMINATION DATE” means the earlier of: (a) the termination of the Facilities by Administrative Agents or Required Lenders pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.5 , or (b) the second anniversary of the Effective Date, provided that if one or more Renewals have occurred, “TERMINATION DATE” means the earlier of the termination of the Facilities by Administrative Agents or Required Lenders and the date which is the last day of the 365-day period for which the Facilities were extended pursuant to the Renewal which occurred the latest. None of Administrative Agents nor any Lender shall be obligated to provide Reseller notice (written or oral) of a Termination Date. If written evidence of a Renewal is not executed by Administrative Agents, all of Lenders and Reseller as required herein, then this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall terminate on the Termination Date without further action or notice by any Party.

 

3.6.

 

Promise to Pay . Reseller hereby promises to pay to Lenders and Administrative Agents the Loan Obligations (including principal, interest, fees, costs, and expenses) in Dollars in full as and when due and payable under the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

13


 

4.3.2. Reseller, Administrative Agents and each Lender agree that certain financial terms of any Floorplan Loan Advance or Interim Floorplan Loan Advance made under this Agreement, whether regarding interest rates, other fees, maturities, or other financial terms, are not set forth herein because such terms depend, in part, upon the availability of Vendor discounts, payment terms or other incentives, prevailing economic conditions, Administrative Agents or CPC’s floor planning volume with Reseller and with Reseller’s Vendors, and other economic factors which may vary over time. Reseller, Administrative Agents and each Lender further agree that it is therefore in their mutual best interest to set forth in this Agreement only the general terms of the Floorplan Loan Facility and the Interim Floorplan Loan Facility. Upon agreeing to finance a particular item of inventory for Reseller, CPC will send Reseller a Transaction Statement identifying such Inventory and the Payment Due Date (each being a “TRANSACTION STATEMENT”). CPC may, without the consent of Lenders or Required Lenders, change any aspect or portion of any Transaction Statement. Unless Reseller notifies Administrative Agents in writing of any objection within 15 days after a Transaction Statement is mailed or sent electronically to Reseller: (a) the amount shown on such Transaction Statement will be an account stated; (b) Reseller will have agreed to all terms shown on such Transaction Statement; (c) Reseller will have agreed that Administrative Agents are financing the items of Inventory referenced in such Transaction Statement at Reseller’s request; and (d) such Transaction Statement will be incorporated herein by reference, will be made a part hereof as if originally set forth herein, and will constitute an addendum hereto. If Reseller objects to the terms of any Transaction Statement, Reseller agrees to pay Administrative Agent for such Inventory in accordance with the most recent terms for similar Inventory to which Reseller has not objected (or, if there are no prior terms, at the lesser of the Prime Rate plus two percent (2.0%) per annum or at the maximum lawful contract rate of interest permitted under Law).

4.3.3. Reseller will pay to CPC the interest (on the Interim Floorplan Loan) for its own account and to CPC (on the Aggregate Floorplan Loan) for its own account on the outstanding principal amount of the Interim Floorplan Loans and the Aggregate Floorplan Loans, respectively, at the rate(s) and in the amount(s) shown on the applicable Transaction Statement, or if Reseller objects thereto, then in such amount(s) as provided in Section 4.3.2 . All interest due and owing as set forth in the Monthly Billing Statement shall be retained by CPC for its own account (on the Interim Floorplan Loans and on the Aggregate Floorplan Loans). Except for volume purchase discounts provided to Reseller by a Vendor, all discounts and subsidies from a Vendor shall be for the sole account of CPC. Principal received by Administrative Agents from Reseller on the Aggregate Floorplan Loans will be paid to Lenders as set forth in Section 18.10 . The interest shown in each Monthly Billing Statement will: (a) be computed based on a 360 day year; (b) be calculated by multiplying the Daily Charge (as defined below) by the actual number of days in the applicable billing period; and (c) accrue from the Payment Due Date until Administrative Agents receive full payment as provided in this Agreement for each item of such Collateral. The “DAILY CHARGE” is the product of the Daily Rate (as defined below) multiplied by the Average Daily Balance (as defined below). The “DAILY RATE” is the quotient of the annual rate shown in the Monthly Billing Statement divided by 360. The “AVERAGE DAILY BALANCE” is the quotient of (a) the sum of the outstanding principal under the Aggregate Floor Plan Facility plus the Interim Floorplan Loan Facility on each day of a billing period for each item of Collateral identified on a Transaction Statement or in the Monthly Billing Statement, divided by (b) the actual number of days in such billing period. With respect to the Interim Floorplan Loans and the Floorplan Loans, the annual interest rate relating to any item of Collateral financed thereby will be calculated from the Payment Due Date, regardless of any period during which any finance charge subsidy shall be paid or payable by any third party.

 

14


 

4.3.4. On a monthly basis, CPC will send Reseller a billing statement identifying principal financed plus accrued interest, due to Administrative Agents on the Interim Floorplan Loans and to CPC, as a Lender, on the Floorplan Loan Facility (the “MONTHLY BILLING STATEMENT”). Except as otherwise provided in a Monthly Billing Statement, the charges specified in each Monthly Billing Statement will be due and payable on the Payment Due Date in accordance with the terms of such Monthly Billing Statement

All Extended Pay Outstandings shall be deemed to be Revolving Loan Advances hereunder. The Initial Advance and each Revolving Loan Advance or any part of a Revolving Loan Advance shall be a LIBOR Rate Advance. Each LIBOR Rate Advance when made will be a LIBOR Rate Loan that bears interest at the LIBOR Rate.

 

4.4.

 

Interest on Floorplan Loans

(i) Administrative Agents, Reseller and each Lender acknowledge and agree that the rate of return paid on any Floorplan Loan or Interim Floorplan Loan is dependent on numerous factors, including discounts and subsidies offered by Vendors. Accordingly, Administrative Agents, Reseller and each Lender agrees that due to the difficulty in determining the actual rate of return on any particular Floorplan Loan or Interim Floorplan Loan or with respect to any particular invoice underlying any such Loan Lenders (other than CPC) will be paid the interest rate specified in this Agreement. With respect to each Lender (other than CPC), CPC shall pay to each Lender interest on each Floorplan Loan Advance for such Lender based on the interest rates set forth in Section 4.6 and 4.7 and, if applicable, 4.10 , and as provided in Section 6.1.1 from the date of funding by such Lender to CPC of its Pro-Rata Share of such Floorplan Loan Advance to the Payment Due Date. Each Floorplan Loan Advance or any part of a Floorplan Loan Advance owing to a Lender (other than CPC) shall be considered a LIBOR Rate Loan for interest rate calculation purposes.

(ii) After the Payment Due Date with respect to each Advance, after the Termination Date (to the extent interest remains owing) or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, and subject to clause (iii) below, Administrative Agents shall distribute interest to each Lender (including CPC as a Lender) out of cash or good collected funds representing interest due by Reseller, each Lender’s Pro Rata Share.

(iii) If any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (as defined in Section 7.8.1 ) and such default continues for more than two Business Days, then for as long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Advance so funded by Administrative Agents shall constitute a special class of Advances hereunder (the “DEFAULTED ADVANCES”), and (a) such Defaulting Lender shall cease to be entitled to receive any interest payable by CPC pursuant to clause (i) hereof or distributable by Administrative Agents pursuant to clause (ii) hereof with respect to such Defaulted Advances, and (b) in addition to the rights of Administrative Agents set forth in Sections 7.8.1 and 7.8 3 , any interest payable by CPC or collected by Administrative Agents thereafter, shall be applied first to repayment in full of the Defaulted Advances before application of such Collections and other monies to any other Advances.

 

4.5.

 

LIBOR Rate . Except as set forth in Section 4.3.1 , the “LIBOR RATE” for any LIBOR Rate Loan is the LIBOR Underlying Rate (which will fluctuate as described in Section 4.8 ) plus the applicable LIBOR Increment as provided in Section 4.6 .

 

15


 

 

4.6.

 

LIBOR Increment . The applicable LIBOR Increment with respect to (a) Swingline Loans, (b) unreimbursed amounts of each draw on a Letter of Credit, (c) Extended Pay Outstandings, (d) the Initial Advance and (e) each Revolving Loan Advance, shall be three percentage points (3%) per annum. The applicable LIBOR Increment with respect to Floorplan Loans and Interim Floorplan Loans shall be 3.5% per annum. The applicable LIBOR Increment to be paid to Lenders by CPC is set forth on Schedule 4.6 .

 

 

4.7.

 

Time of Accrual . Interest shall accrue on all principal amounts outstanding from the date when first outstanding to the date when no longer outstanding. Amounts shall be deemed outstanding until payments are applied thereto as provided herein.

 

 

4.8.

 

Computation; LIBOR Underlying Rate . Interest shall be computed for the actual days elapsed over a year deemed to consist of 360 days for all LIBOR Rate Loans. The LIBOR Rate for each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be the rate determined by Administrative Agents pursuant to this Agreement. For each LIBOR Rate Loan, the LIBOR Rate shall fluctuate as provided for herein. The “ LIBOR Underlying Rate ” shall be the interest rate per annum equal to the quotient (rounded to the nearest 0.001%) of: on the Effective Date, and for each calendar week thereafter, commencing on Wednesday of such week, the one month LIBOR Rate per annum, as determined by Administrative Agents, as adjusted from time to time in Administrative Agents’ Permitted Discretion for then applicable reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs, as reported by The Wall Street Journal and identified as the “London Interbank Offered Rate”, on each Monday immediately preceding or if any such Monday is not a Business Day, then on the Business Day immediately preceding such Monday. If for any reason such rate is not available in The Wall Street Journal , the term “LIBOR Underlying Rate” means, for any LIBOR Rate Loan, the rate per annum, as determined by Administrative Agent, as adjusted from time to time in Administrative Agents’ Permitted Discretion for then applicable reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs, appearing on Reuters Screen LIBOR Page as the London Interbank Offered Rate for deposits in Dollars at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) for an interest period of one month, on (a) each Monday immediately preceding, or (b) if any such Monday is not a Business Day, then on the Business Day immediately preceding such Monday; provided, however, if more than one rate is specified on Reuters Screen LIBOR Page, the applicable rate shall be the arithmetic mean of all such rates (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/1000 of one percent (1%).

 

 

 

 

Such rate may not be the lowest rate of interest charged by either Administrative Agent or any Lender to its respective customers or a favored rate and may not correspond with future increases or decreases in interest rates charged by other lenders or market interest rates in general, and is used herein as a reference rate.

 

 

4.9.

 

Rate After Maturity and Rate After An Event of Default.

 

 

 

 

Reseller shall pay interest on each of the Loans after their Maturity, and if Administrative Agents or Required Lenders so determine in their absolute discretion, on the Loans after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus four and one-half percentage points (4.5%) (the “DEFAULT RATE”).

4.10.

 

Taxes.

4.10.1. Any and all payments by Reseller to or for the account of any Lender or Administrative Agents hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all current or future Taxes, excluding , in the case of each Lender and each Administrative Agent, (a) Taxes imposed on its income by any Governmental Authority, and (b) franchise Taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or such Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof. If Reseller shall be required by Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Lender or an Administrative Agent, (a) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) such Lender or such Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) Reseller shall make such deductions, (c) Reseller shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Law, and (d) Reseller shall furnish to Administrative Agents, at the common notice address referred to herein, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

4.10.2. In addition, Reseller agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “IMPOSITIONS”), except income and franchise Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority referred to in Section 4.11.1 .

4.10.3. Reseller agrees to indemnify each Lender and each Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Impositions (including any Taxes or Impositions imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) that are required to be paid by Reseller hereunder but are paid by such Lender or such Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, however, that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to pay any such Taxes, Impositions or other liability.

4.10.4. Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by Reseller or Administrative Agents (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide Reseller and Administrative Agents with (a) Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding Tax on payments of interest or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, (b) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, and (c) any other form or certificate required by any Governmental Authority (including any certificate required by Code Sections 871(h) and 881(c)), certifying that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from or a reduced rate of Tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

 

17


 

4.10.5. For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide Reseller and Administrative Agents with the appropriate form pursuant to Section 4.11.4 (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law, or regulation occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.11 with respect to Taxes imposed by or within the United States; provided , however , that should a Lender, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding Tax, become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, Reseller shall take such action as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes.

4.10.6. If Reseller is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender or Administrative Agents pursuant to this Section, then such Lender or the affected Administrative Agent will agree to use reasonable efforts to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the Permitted Discretion of such Lender or such Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender or such Administrative Agent, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees, with respect to the provisions of this Section 4.11 , to treat Reseller in a manner substantially similar to that of its other similarly situated customers.

4.10.7. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes described in this Section 4.11 , Reseller shall furnish to Administrative Agents the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment.

4.10.8. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Reseller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Reseller contained in this Section shall survive the termination of the Facilities and the indefeasible payment in full of the Loan Obligations.

 

4.11.

 

Capital Adequacy.

4.11.1. If, after the date hereof, any Lender or Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined that the adoption after the date hereof of any Law regarding capital adequacy or any change after the date hereof therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof after the date hereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive after the date hereof regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request, or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time upon demand Reseller shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will reasonably compensate such Lender for such reduction.

4.11.2. Each Lender shall promptly notify Reseller and Administrative Agents of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the Permitted Discretion of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to it. Any Lender claiming compensation under this Section shall furnish to Reseller and Administrative Agents a statement setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Each Lender agrees, with respect to the provisions of this Section, to treat Reseller in a manner substantially similar to that of its other similarly situated customers.

 

18


 

 

4.12.

 

Usury . Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in Section 4 or elsewhere in any of the Loan Documents, Reseller shall not be obligated to pay interest at a rate which exceeds the maximum rate permitted by Law. If, but for this Section 4.13 , Reseller would be deemed obligated to pay interest at a rate which exceeds the maximum rate permitted by Law, or if any of the Loan Obligations is paid or becomes payable before its originally scheduled Maturity or is otherwise accelerated and as a result Reseller has paid or would be obligated to pay interest at such an excessive rate, then (a) Reseller shall not be obligated to pay interest to the extent it exceeds the interest that would be payable at the maximum rate permitted by Law; (b) if the outstanding Loan Obligations have not been accelerated as provided in Section 17.3.2 , any such excess interest that has been paid by Reseller shall be refunded; (c) if the outstanding Loan Obligations have been accelerated as provided in Section 17.3.2 , any such excess that has been paid by Reseller shall be applied to the Loan Obligations as provided in Section 17.4 ; and (d) the effective rate of interest shall be deemed automatically reduced to the maximum rate permitted by Law.

5.5.

Reseller shall pay to Administrative Agents, for the account of each Lender (pro rata based on each Lender’s Revolving Loan Facility) an unused line fee for the period from the date hereof through the end of the Termination Date equal in the aggregate to 0.24% per annum of the average daily unborrowed amount of the Total Facility Limit in effect during the period for which payment is made (the “UNUSED LINE FEE”). The Unused Line Fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the last day of each month until the Termination Date. The Parties agree that such Unused Line Fee constitutes reasonable consideration for Administrative Agents’ taking of appropriate actions to be able to make available to Reseller the amount of the Total Facility Limit for such period.

 

19


 

 

5.6.

 

Calculation of Fees . All of the foregoing fees shall be calculated by Administrative Agents and payable by Reseller. All of the foregoing fees and all other fees payable hereunder to Administrative Agents or any Lender that are based on an annual percentage shall be calculated on the basis of a year deemed to consist of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed. Once paid, all such fees shall be deemed to be fully earned and nonrefundable under any circumstances. These fees are a part of the Loan Obligations and are secured by all of the Collateral.

(b) Prior to 12:00 p.m. (Local Time) on Thursday of each calendar week (a “SETTLEMENT DATE”), based on funds collected pursuant to Section 6.1.2.1 as of 3:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the Business Day immediately preceding such Settlement Date (under all circumstances, including during the existence of any Event of Default), each Lender shall, to the extent it does not hold its Pro-Rata Share of the funded portion of the outstanding Aggregate Floorplan Loans (including any amounts for which an Approval has been issued), and Aggregate Revolving Loans, but excluding any Swingline Loan or Interim Floorplan Loan (which will be settled to zero as a part of the settlement), purchase from or sell to one or more other Lenders, at par, which may occur by a funding through Administrative Agents, that portion of its Loans as is necessary for it to thereafter hold its Pro-Rata Share of the funded portion of the outstanding Aggregate Floorplan Loans and Aggregate Revolving Loans. In order that the foregoing settlement among Lenders can be effected on each Settlement Date, Administrative Agents shall, on or before 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on such Settlement Date, (i) notify each Lender who shall purchase a Loan, of the principal amount of the Loan to be purchased, and each Lender shall make immediately available to Administrative Agents by 12:00 p.m. (Local Time) on such Settlement Date funds consisting solely of Dollars in the amount of such principal amount of the Loan to be purchased in accordance with such remittance instructions as may be given by Administrative Agents to Lenders from time to time, and (ii) notify each Lender who shall sell a Loan, of the principal amount of the Loan to be sold, and the Administrative Agents shall make immediately available to such selling Lenders by 12:00 p.m. (Local Time) on such Settlement Date, to the extent provided by purchasing Lenders, funds consisting solely of Dollars in the amount of such principal amount of the Loan to be sold in accordance with such remittance instructions as may be given by Lenders to the Administrative Agents from time to time.

6.1.2.2. Administrative Agents may, at any time, in their sole discretion, cause the Settlement Date to occur more frequently, including each Business Day of each week. Administrative Agents shall notify each Lender that a given Business Day shall be a Settlement Date by no later than 1:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the Business Day immediately preceding any such date; provided, however, if the Settlement Date occurs more frequently than once a week, then once Administrative Agents give such notice, no further notices shall be required.

 

6.2.

 

Special Requirement for Payments on Floorplan Loans and Interim Floorplan Loans . Reseller will immediately pay Administrative Agents the principal indebtedness owed Administrative Agents and Lenders on each item of Collateral financed by Lenders and Administrative Agents (as shown on the Transaction Statement identifying such Collateral) under the Floorplan Loan Facility or the Interim Floorplan Loan Facility on the earliest occurrence of any of the following events: (a) when such Collateral is lost, stolen or damaged; and (b) when otherwise required under the terms of any financing program agreed to in writing by Reseller and Administrative Agents. Any third party discount, rebate, subsidy, bonus or credit granted to Reseller for any Collateral will not reduce the Loan Obligations until Administrative Agents have received payment as provided in this Agreement.

6.3.

 

Prepayments.

6.3.1. Voluntary Prepayments . Subject to the limitations in the following sentences, except for mandatory prepayments and funds received by Administrative Agents as contemplated by Section 6.1 , Reseller may wholly prepay any Loan that is included in the Aggregate Revolving Loan or the Swingline Loan, or prepay any Floorplan Loan or Interim Floorplan Loan, at any time and may make a partial prepayment thereon from time to time, without penalty or premium if Reseller pays any amount that is due as a consequence of the prepayment as otherwise provided for in this Agreement. All such prepayments, unless otherwise expressly stated in writing by Reseller to Administrative Agents prior to the making of such prepayment, will be deemed made on the Swingline Loan until it is reduced to zero, thereafter to the Aggregate Revolving Loan until it is reduced to zero, and thereafter to the Interim Floorplan Loan if due until it is reduced to zero, thereafter to the Aggregate Floorplan Loan if due until it is reduced to zero, and (with, in each case, the payment of any and all penalties and premiums due hereunder in connection therewith), and will be applied by Lenders to reduce the Revolving Loans and the Floorplan Loans, as appropriate, in accordance with their respective Pro-Rata Shares.

6.3.2. Mandatory Prepayments.

6.3.2.1. Revolving Loans/Extended Pay Outstandings. If at any time the Aggregate Revolving Loans plus Swingline Loans exceed the Revolving Loan Maximum Available Amount (which can be a negative number), whether as a result of optional Swingline Advances made by Administrative Agents as contemplated by Section 3.3.3 , Extended Pay Outstandings or otherwise, Reseller shall on demand by Administrative Agents in their discretion (or Administrative Agents shall as directed by Required Lenders), make a payment in the amount of the difference to Administrative Agents for the account of Administrative Agents on the Swingline Loan and Lenders on the Aggregate Revolving Loans, including any Extended Pay Outstandings. Each such prepayment will be applied by Administrative Agents and Lenders first to reduce the Swingline Loan until it is reduced to zero, then to reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loans, including any Extended Pay Outstandings (and consequently a ratable portion of each Lender’s Revolving Loans).

6.3.2.2. Floorplan Loan Facility. On any date that the Interim Floorplan Loans plus the Aggregate Floorplan Loans exceed the Floorplan Loan Maximum Available Amount, then Reseller shall, on such date, after demand by Administrative Agent in its discretion (or Administrative Agents shall as directed by Required Lenders), pay such excess to Administrative Agents for the pro-rata benefit of Lenders and failure to pay such excess on such date shall be an immediate Event of Default.

6.3.3. Other Mandatory Prepayments.

6.3.3.1. Proceeds from Sales of Assets . If any Covered Person sells any of its assets in a single transaction or related series of transactions that are not in the ordinary course of business, Reseller shall make a payment to Administrative Agents for the benefit of Lenders in the amount of the gross proceeds therefrom less the sum of (a) (i) all amounts paid to the holders of Indebtedness secured by Permitted Encumbrances that have a first priority security position, (ii) reasonable selling expenses and (iii) the increment in federal, state and local income Taxes, if any, and applicable transfer Taxes, if any, payable as a consequence of such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Reseller need not make such prepayment unless the net proceeds from such sale or sales exceed $2,000,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year, in the aggregate for all Covered Persons, and (b) none of the proceeds from the sale or sales of Reseller’s membership interest in Eyak shall be payable to Administrative Agents as provided above in this Section 6.3.3.1 .

 

23


 

6.3.3.2. Proceeds from Sale of Securities or Indebtedness . If after the Execution Date, Reseller issues any equity (except equity issued in connection with stock splits or options listed or referenced on Disclosure Schedule 6.3.3.2 , or dividends payable in stock) or debt securities, or warrants or options therefor, or otherwise incur any Indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness, Reseller shall promptly, but in any event within two Business Days after such sale, make a payment to Administrative Agents for the benefit of Lenders, based on each Lender’s Pro-Rata Share, to be applied to the Loan Obligations, in an aggregate amount equal to the gross proceeds therefrom less reasonable brokers’ and underwriters’ fees and commissions and other reasonable issuing expenses.

6.3.3.3. Insurance Proceeds . All Insurance Proceeds shall be applied by Administrative Agents to the Loan Obligations.

Every prepayment under this Section that is required to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan shall be distributed by Administrative Agents to Lenders in accordance with their Pro-Rata Shares of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility and applied by Lenders to reduce their Revolving Loans in accordance with their respective Pro-Rata Shares of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility. If application to the Revolving Loans of any prepayment required under this Section reduces the Revolving Loans (and consequently the Aggregate Revolving Loan) to zero, then unless otherwise agreed among Reseller and Administrative Agents, the remaining amount of such prepayment shall be applied by Lenders to reduce the Floorplan Loans then due and payable under the applicable Transaction Statement to zero (and consequently the Aggregate Floorplan Loan); thereafter any remaining funds shall be remitted to Reseller.

 

6.4.

 

Reimbursement Obligations of Reseller . Reseller hereby unconditionally agrees to immediately pay to Letter of Credit Issuer on demand at Letter of Credit Issuer’s Applicable Lending Office all amounts required to pay all drafts drawn under Letters of Credit issued for the account of Reseller and all reasonable expenses incurred by Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with such Letters of Credit and in any event and without demand to remit to Letter of Credit Issuer (which may be through obtaining Advances if permitted under Section 3.1 ) sufficient funds to pay all debts and liabilities arising under any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Reseller.

 

 

6.5.

 

Manner of Payments and Timing of Application of Payments.

6.5.1. Payment Requirement . Unless expressly provided to the contrary elsewhere herein, Reseller shall make each payment on the Loan Obligations to Administrative Agents for the account of Lenders (based on each Lender’s Pro-Rata Share) as required under the Loan Documents at the Applicable Lending Office of Administrative Agents on the date when due, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim. All such payments will be distributed by Administrative Agents to Lenders as provided in Section 18.10 for application to the Loan Obligations as provided herein.

6.5.2. Application of Payments and Proceeds . All immediately available funds collected pursuant to Section 6.1.2.1 at or before 9:30 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day excluding a Settlement Date, will be distributed by Administrative Agents as provided in Section 6.1.2.1(a ) and (b) . Such funds received on a day that is not a Business Day, or if on a Business Day, after 9:30 a.m. (Local Time), will be deemed received on the immediately following Business Day, and distributed by Administrative Agents on a Settlement Date as provided in Section 18.10 . The amount so distributed to a Lender will be applied by such Lender to the relevant Loan Obligation on the Business Day when received. Reseller will also pay to Administrative Agents, for their own account, such fees as Administrative Agents generally charge their customers for each check returned unpaid for insufficient funds (an “NSF CHECK”) (such payment repays Administrative Agents’ estimated administrative costs; it does not waive any Default or Event of Default caused by the NSF check).

 

24


 

6.5.3. Interest Calculation . Interest shall begin accruing, and be owing and payable on an Advance on the day such Advance is made by a Lender to Administrative Agents. Section 6.5.2 notwithstanding, for purposes of interest calculation only, (a) a payment by check, draft or other instrument received at or before 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the second following Business Day, (b) a payment by check, draft or other instrument received on a day that is not a Business Day or after 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the third following Business Day, (c) a payment by ACH (Automatic Clearing House) received at or before 8:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the Business Day when it is received, (d) a payment by ACH received on a day that is not a Business Day or after 8:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the following Business Day following the date of receipt, (e) a payment in cash received at or before 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the Business Day when it is received, (f) a payment in cash received on a day that is not a Business Day or after 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the next Business Day following receipt, (g) a payment by wire transfer received at or before 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the Business Day received, (h) a payment in cash or by wire transfer received on a day that is not a Business Day or after 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the Business Day following receipt, (i) a payment received in the Lockboxes at or before 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the next Business Day following receipt, and (j) a payment received in the Lockboxes on a day that is not a Business Day or after 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be deemed to have been applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the second Business Day following receipt. Payments on the Aggregate Floorplan Loan or Interim Floorplan Loan that are funded by Revolving Loan Advances shall be deemed to be made on the Aggregate Floorplan Loan or Interim Floorplan Loan for interest calculation purposes on the day made.

 

6.6.

 

Returned Instruments . If a payment is made by ACH, check, draft or other instrument and the ACH item, check, draft or other instrument is returned unpaid, any application of the payment to the Loan Obligations will be reversed and will be treated as never having been made.

 

25


 

 

6.7.

 

Compelled Return of Payments or Proceeds . If an Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender any payment or any proceeds of the Collateral because such payment or the application of such proceeds is for any reason invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, or determined to be void or voidable as a preference, an impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, then this Agreement and the Loan Obligations to which such payment or proceeds was applied or intended to be applied shall be revived as if such application was never made; and Reseller shall be liable to pay to such Administrative Agent or such Lender, and shall indemnify such Administrative Agent or such Lender for and hold such Administrative Agent or such Lender harmless from any loss with respect to, the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. This Section shall be effective notwithstanding any contrary action that such Administrative Agent or such Lender may take in reliance upon its receipt of any such payment or proceeds. Any such contrary action so taken by such Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be without prejudice to such Administrative Agent or such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon the application of such payment or proceeds having become final and indefeasible. The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of the Facilities and the indefeasible payment and satisfaction of all of the Loan Obligations.

 

 

6.8.

 

Due Dates Not on Business Days . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any payment required hereunder becomes due on a date that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be deemed to be the next Business Day.

7. Procedure for Obtaining Advances.

 

7.1.

 

Initial Advance . Reseller, Administrative Agents and Lenders further acknowledge and agree that with respect to the initial Advance issued to repay all Indebtedness owed under the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 2, 2006 (as amended), among Reseller, the Persons party thereto as guarantors, the financial institutions party thereto as lenders, SunTrust Bank as issuing bank, co-collateral agent and administrative agent and Bank of America, N.A. as co-collateral agent and syndicating agent, as amended, (the “ Initial Advance ”), such Initial Advance shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan and shall be repaid in accordance with Section 6.1.2.1 .

 

 

7.2.

 

Revolving Loan Advances . Reseller may request subsequent Revolving Loan Advances at any time, but not more often than once each Business Day, by submitting a request therefor to Administrative Agents as provided in Section 7.13 . All requests for a Revolving Loan Advance must be submitted by Reseller. Administrative Agents may treat every request for a Revolving Loan Advance as a request for a Swingline Advance to the extent the requested amount does not exceed the Maximum Swingline Amount and as a request for a Revolving Loan Advance in the amount of the excess. Every request for a Revolving Loan Advance shall be irrevocable. A request for a Revolving Loan Advance received by Administrative Agents on a day that is not a Business Day or that is received by Administrative Agents after 9:30 a.m. (Local Time) on a Business Day shall be treated as having been received by Administrative Agents at 9:30 a.m. (Local Time) on the next Business Day.

 

 

7.3.

 

Floorplan Loan Advances . CPC may treat every request for a Floorplan Loan Advance as a request for an Interim Floorplan Loan Advance to the extent the requested amount does not exceed the Interim Floorplan Loan Facility and as a request for a Floorplan Loan Advance in the amount of the excess (to the extent the requested amount does not exceed the Floorplan Loan Maximum Available Amount when added to the Aggregate Floorplan Loans and the Interim Floorplan Loans).

 

26


 

 

7.4.

 

Repayment of the Swingline Loan and the Interim Floorplan Loan.

7.4.1. CPC may in its absolute discretion on any Business Day give notice to Lenders of the amount of the Swingline Loan or Interim Floorplan Loan after application of all payments to be applied thereto as provided elsewhere herein. Such notice shall be given no later than Noon (Local Time) and may include a demand that the Swingline Loan or the Interim Floorplan Loan be fully paid. If CPC demands that the Swingline Loan or the Interim Floorplan Loan be fully paid, then prior to 1:00 p.m. (Local Time) on such date, Lenders shall remit funds to CPC sufficient to reduce the Swingline Loan or the Interim Floorplan Loan to zero. The aggregate of such remittances shall be treated, respectively, as a Revolving Loan Advance and the Aggregate Revolving Loan increased accordingly (in the case of payments on the Swingline Loan) and as a Floorplan Loan Advance and the Aggregate Floorplan Loan increased accordingly (in the case of payments on the Interim Floorplan Loan). Each such remittance by a Lender shall be made in accordance with its Pro-Rata Share of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility or the Floorplan Loan Facility and shall be made notwithstanding that (a) the amount of the aggregate of such remittances by Lenders may not be in the minimum amount for Revolving Loan Advances otherwise required hereunder, (b) any conditions to Advances in Section 10 may not be then satisfied, (c) there is an Existing Default, (d) the aggregate amount of such remittances by Lenders would result in the Aggregate Revolving Loan exceeding the Revolving Loan Maximum Available Amount, or (e) such remittances by Lenders may be made after the Termination Date; provided, however, that in no event shall any Lender be required to make any such remittance that would result in the sum of (i) the Revolving Loan of such Lender, plus (ii) such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Loan Facility.

7.4.2. If for any reason, including the commencement of a proceeding in bankruptcy with respect to Reseller, remittances by Lenders as provided above cannot be made on the date otherwise required above, then each Lender shall be deemed automatically to have purchased from CPC as of such date an undivided interest and participation in the Swingline Loan and the Interim Floorplan Loan equal to such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share, so as to cause such Lender to share in the Swingline Loan and the Interim Floorplan Loan in accordance with its Pro-Rata Share. Each Lender shall remit its Pro-Rata Share of the Swingline Loan and the Interim Floorplan Loan to CPC promptly on demand. All interest payable with respect to such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share of the Swingline Loan and the Interim Floorplan Loan shall be for the account of CPC to the date such remittance is made, and shall be for the account of and remitted by CPC to such Lender (except in the case of the Floorplan Loan, at the rate designated in Section 4.5 with respect to CPC and the other Lenders) as a participant from such date. Further, until such remittance is made, such Lender shall pay to CPC, on demand, interest on such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share of the Swingline Loan and the Floorplan Loan at the Federal Funds Rate, and such Lender shall be subject to the restrictions contained in Section 7.8 .

 

7.5.

 

Letters of Credit . Reseller may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit by submitting an issuance request to Letter of Credit Issuer and executing the reimbursement agreement required under Section 11.1 no fewer than five Business Days prior to the requested issue date for such Letter of Credit.

 

 

7.6.

 

Administrative Agents’ Right to Make Other Certain Advances.

7.6.1. Payment of Loan Obligations . Administrative Agents shall have the right to make Revolving Loan Advances at any time and from time to time to cause timely payment of any of the Loan Obligations, including to pay interest or principal on the Swingline Loan, the Interim Floorplan Loan, the Aggregate Floorplan Loan and the Aggregate Revolving Loan, and to pay any fees owing to Lenders or Administrative Agents; provided , however, with respect to third party fees, if there is no Existing Default, Administrative Agents shall use their reasonable efforts to give prior notice to Reseller of the payment of any such fees from an Advance (but shall have no liability for their failure to notify Reseller, and any such failure shall not give rise to a claim or cause of action by Reseller against either Administrative Agent or any Lender). If there is no Existing Default, Administrative Agents shall use reasonable efforts to notify Reseller (but shall have no liability for their failure to notify Reseller and such failure shall not give rise to a claim or cause of action by Reseller against either Administrative Agent or any Lender) on the day it makes any payment or pays any interest owing hereunder or any fees owing to Lenders or Administrative Agents. Administrative Agents may select the Advance Date for any such Advance, but such Advance Date may only be a Business Day. Administrative Agents will use reasonable efforts to promptly give notice to Reseller after any such Advance is made, but failure to give such notice shall not give rise to any liability on the part of either Administrative Agent or any Lender.

 

27


 

7.6.2. Payments to Other Creditors . Subject to Section 19.1 , if Administrative Agents become obligated to reimburse or pay to any creditor of Reseller any amount to obtain a release of such creditor’s Security Interest in any of the Collateral, other than Permitted Security Interests, then Administrative Agents shall have the right (but shall have no obligation) to make Advances for that purpose. Administrative Agents may select the Advance Date for any such Advance, but such Advance Date may only be a Business Day.

 

7.7.

 

Fundings.

7.7.1. Advances . Other than if a Swingline Advance will be made by CPC or Interim Floorplan Loan Advance will be made by CPC, not later than 10:00 a.m. (Local Time) on each Advance Date for a Floorplan Loan Advance or Revolving Loan Advance, Administrative Agents shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of the Floorplan Loan Advance or the Revolving Loan Advance to be made on that Advance Date. In each case then, each Lender shall make immediately available to Administrative Agents by 12:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the Advance Date funds consisting solely of Dollars in the amount of its Pro-Rata Share of such Floorplan Loan Advance or Revolving Loan Advance, rounded to the nearest penny, in accordance with such remittance instructions as may be given by Administrative Agents to Lenders from time to time.

7.7.2. Draws on Letters of Credit . If a draw is made on a Letter of Credit and Reseller does not reimburse the amount of such draw in full to Letter of Credit Issuer immediately on demand, Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly notify Administrative Agents of such failure. Upon Administrative Agents’ receipt of such notice from Letter of Credit Issuer, Administrative Agents may notify each Lender thereof and shall have the right to cause a Revolving Loan Advance to be made, regardless whether such Revolving Loan Advance would result in the Aggregate Revolving Loan exceeding the Revolving Loan Maximum Available Amount or regardless as to whether there is an Existing Default, by notifying each Lender of the draw, the amount of the Revolving Loan Advance required to fund reimbursement of such draw, and the amount of such Lender’s ratable share of such Revolving Loan Advance. The Advance Date and time for such Revolving Loan Advance shall not be later than 12:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the first Business Day following Administrative Agents’ delivery of such notice to Lenders. By no later than such Advance Date and time, each Lender shall make immediately available to Administrative Agents funds consisting solely of Dollars in the amount of its Pro-Rata Share of such Revolving Loan Advance, rounded to the nearest penny, in accordance with such remittance instructions as may be given by Administrative Agents to each Lender from time to time.

7.7.3. All Fundings Ratable . All fundings of Advances (other than Swingline Advances and Interim Floorplan Loan Advances) shall be made by Lenders as provided herein in accordance with their Pro-Rata Shares of the respective Aggregate Facilities, as applicable. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, a Lender shall not be obligated to fund Revolving Loan Advances that would result in such Lender’s Revolving Loan plus such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Exposure exceeding its Revolving Loan Facility, fund Floorplan Loan Advances that would result in its Floorplan Loan exceeding its Floorplan Loan Facility or make available any more than its Pro-Rata Share of any Advance.

 

28


 

 

7.8.

 

Administrative Agents’ Availability Assumption.

7.8.1. Unless Administrative Agents have been given written notice by a Lender prior to an Advance Date that such Lender does not intend to make immediately available to Administrative Agents such Lender’s Pro-Rata Share of the Advance which Administrative Agents may be obligated to make on the Advance Date, including any Advance that may be made based on the issuance of an Approval, Administrative Agents may assume that such Lender has made the required amount available to Administrative Agents on the Advance Date and Administrative Agents may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Reseller a corresponding amount. Failure of any Lender to make immediately available its Pro-Rata Share of any Advance of the Swingline Loan, any Floorplan Loan (whether based on the issuance of an Approval or otherwise), the Interim Floorplan Loan (whether based on the issuance of an Approval or otherwise), any Revolving Loan or any other amount then owing hereunder by a Lender upon demand shall make such Lender a “DEFAULTING LENDER”. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made immediately available to Administrative Agents by such Defaulting Lender on the Advance Date, Administrative Agents shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Defaulting Lender. If such Defaulting Lender does not pay such corresponding amount immediately upon Administrative Agents’ demand therefor, then Administrative Agents shall promptly notify Reseller and the other Lenders and Reseller shall pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agents within one (1) Business Day. Administrative Agents shall also be entitled to recover, either from such Defaulting Lender or Reseller, interest on such corresponding amount for each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agents to Reseller to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Administrative Agents, at a rate per annum equal to either (a) if paid by such Lender, the cost to Administrative Agents of funding such amount at the Federal Funds Rate, or (b) if paid by Reseller, the applicable rate for the Advance in question determined from the request therefor. Each Lender shall be obligated only to fund its Pro-Rata Share of an Advance subject to the terms and conditions hereof, regardless of the failure of another Lender to fund its Pro-Rata Share thereof.

7.8.2. Each remittance or payment or Advance required to be made by a Lender shall be made in accordance with its Pro-Rata Share and shall be made notwithstanding that (a) the amount of the aggregate of such remittances by Lenders may not be in the minimum amount for Revolving Loan Advances or Floorplan Loan Advances or otherwise required hereunder, (b) any conditions to Advances in Section 10 may not be then satisfied, (c) there is an Existing Default, (d) the aggregate amount of such remittances by Lenders would result in the Aggregate Revolving Loan exceeding the Revolving Loan Maximum Available Amount, or the aggregate amount of such remittances by Lenders would result in the Aggregate Floorplan Loan plus the Interim Floorplan Loan exceeding the value of the Collateral advanced against thereunder or the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Facility, or (e) such remittances by Lenders may be made after the effective date of termination of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Facility or the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Facility, as the case may be; provided, however, that in no event shall any Lender be required to make any such remittance that would result in the Revolving Loan of such Lender exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Loan Facility or the Floorplan Loan of such Lender exceeding such Lender’s Floorplan Loan Facility.

 

29


 

7.8.3. In addition, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, until a payment or Advance is paid to Administrative Agents (with interest as described above), (a) such Defaulting Lender shall permit Administrative Agents the unconditional and irrevocable right of setoff against any amounts (including payments of principal, interest, and fees, as well as indemnity payments) received by Administrative Agents hereunder for the benefit of any such Defaulting Lender, and (b) if such failure to pay shall continue for a period of three Business Days, result in any such Defaulting Lender forfeiting any right to vote on any matter that Required Lenders or all Lenders are permitted to vote for hereunder (and the calculation of Required Lenders shall exclude such Defaulting Lender’s interest in Lenders’ Exposure); provided , however, once such a failure is cured, then such Lender shall, subsequent thereto, have all rights hereunder; provided, further, however, if any Lender shall fail to make such a payment within the three Business Day period specified in clause (b) above (other than by reason of events beyond the reasonable control of such Lender) three or more times during the term hereof, such Lender shall permanently forfeit its right to vote hereunder (and the calculation of Required Lenders shall exclude such Defaulting Lender’s interest in Lenders’ Exposure).

 

7.9.

 

Disbursement . Provided that all conditions precedent herein to a requested Advance or, if applicable, a Swingline Advance or Interim Floorplan Loan Advance, have been satisfied, including with respect to any Floorplan Loan Advance or Interim Floorplan Loan Advance and the requirements of any agreements with any Approved Vendors, Administrative Agents will make the amount of such requested Advance available to Reseller or in the case of an Interim Floorplan Loan Advance or a Floorplan Loan Advance to the appropriate Approved Vendor, on the applicable Advance Date in immediately available funds in Dollars at the Applicable Lending Office.

 

 

7.10.

 

Restrictions on Advances . No more than one Revolving Loan Advance and no more than one Swingline Advance will be made on any one day pursuant to a request for a Revolving Loan Advance. Advances will only be made for the purposes permitted in Section 14.1 .

 

 

7.11.

 

Each Advance Request and Request for a Letter of Credit a Certification . Each submittal of a request for an Advance and each submittal of a request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit by an Authorized Employee shall constitute a certification by Reseller that (a) there is no Existing Default, (b) all conditions precedent hereunder to the making of the requested Advance have been satisfied or waived in writing by Required Lenders, and (c) the Representations and Warranties are then true, with such exceptions as have been disclosed to Lenders in writing by Reseller or any Guarantor making such Representations and Warranties from time to time and are satisfactory to Required Lenders, and will be true on the Advance Date, as applicable, as if then made with such exceptions.

 

 

7.12.

 

Requirements for Every Letter of Credit Request . Only a written request (which may be mailed, personally delivered or delivered by facsimile as provided in this Agreement) from an Authorized Employee to Administrative Agents or an electronic initiation over an online service provided by Letter of Credit Issuer that specifies the amount, requested issue date (which shall be a Business Day and in no event later than 30 days before the Termination Date) and beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit and other information necessary for its issuance shall be treated as a request for issuance of a Letter of Credit together with such Letter of Credit applications and reimbursement agreements as Letter of Credit Issuer may reasonably request.

 

30


 

 

7.13.

 

Requirements for Every Advance Request . Subject to the terms of Section 10 and the other provisions of this Agreement, with regards to Swingline Loans and Revolving Loan Advances, only a request (which shall be in writing in the form of Exhibit 7.13 and mailed, personally delivered or delivered by facsimile as provided in Section 21.1 ) from an Authorized Employee to Administrative Agents, which Administrative Agents are entitled to rely on and assume for all purposes it is genuine and accurate in all respects) that specifies the amount of the Advance to be made, and the Advance Date for the requested Advance shall be treated as a request for an Advance. In addition, for purposes of this Section 7.13 , Administrative Agents will accept an electronic transmission from an Authorized Employee if any such electronic transmission contains the text contained in Exhibit 7.13 . Any such electronic transmission from an Authorized Employee shall be deemed to be signed and fully executed by an Authorized Employee and be treated as if it were personally delivered or delivered by facsimile to Administrative Agents. Administrative Agents shall have no liability for accepting any such electronic transmission, and Administrative Agents shall be entitled to rely upon and assume any such electronic transmission was duly and properly sent by such Authorized Employee. No Advance Date for any requested Advance may be other than a Business Day. With regards to Swingline Loans, a request for an Advance must be given prior to 9:30 a.m., Local Time, on the Advance Date for such Advance. With regards to a Revolving Loan, a request for an Advance must be given prior to 9:30 a.m., Local Time, on the Advance Date for such Advance. Subject to the terms of Section 10 and the other provisions of this Agreement, Floorplan Loan Advances and Interim Floorplan Loan Advances will be funded in accordance with CPC’s procedures.

 

 

7.14.

 

Exoneration of Administrative Agents and Lenders . Neither Administrative Agents nor any Lender shall incur any liability to Reseller for treating a request that meets the express requirements of Sections 7.12 or 7.13 as a request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or an Advance, as applicable, if Administrative Agents believe in good faith that the Person making the request is an Authorized Employee of Reseller or if, in the case of a request for a Letter of Credit, it is properly electronically initiated.
