RECITALS :

  • A. Borrower desires to obtain the Revolving Credit Loan and other financial accommodations from Lender and Lender is willing to provide the Revolving Credit Loan and such other financial accommodations, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

  • B. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in Schedule A and, for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the rules of construction set forth in Schedule A shall govern; and

  • C. All schedules, attachments, addenda and exhibits hereto, or expressly identified in this Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference, and taken together with this Agreement constitute a single agreement.

NOW , THEREFORE , in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1 AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT

1.1 Advances

  • (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from the Closing Date and until the Commitment Termination Date: (i) Lender agrees to make available Advances in CAD$ at the rate of interest equal to the Canadian Dollar Interest Rate, in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the Borrowing Availability for the Revolving Credit Loan. Advances under the Revolving Credit Loan shall be capable of being borrowed, repaid and reborrowed, subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

  • (b) Borrower may request, and Lender shall make available, increases in respect of the Maximum Amount of the Revolving Credit Loan by way of exercise of the Accordion, subject to following terms and conditions:

  • (i) at the time of the proposed exercise of the Accordion, there exists no Default or Event of Default and there shall exist no Default or Event of Default after giving effect thereto;

  • (ii) Lender shall have been provided with not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of the date such exercise of the Accordion is to take effect;

  • (iii) the amount of the proposed exercise of the Accordion is not less than CAD$2,500,000;

  • (iv) the aggregate amount of all prior exercises of the Accordion, together with the proposed exercise of the Accordion, is not greater than CAD$15,000,000; and

  • (v) Lender shall have received the Accordion Fee applicable to the proposed exercise of the Accordion, and all amounts of Unused Accordion Fees due prior to the exercise thereof.

  • 2 -

  • (c) Borrower shall request each Advance by written notice to Lender substantially in the form of Exhibit A (each, a “ Notice of Advance ”) given no later than 1:00 p.m. (Calgary time) two (2) Business Days prior to the Business Day of the proposed Advance together with all documentation and information required hereunder in respect of such Advance. Lender shall be fully protected under this Agreement in relying upon, and shall be entitled to rely upon any Notice of Advance believed by Lender to be genuine, provided that each such Notice of Advance is duly executed by two (2) Authorized Officers. Notices of Advance may be transmitted by email or other electronic method, in accordance with the terms hereof.

  • (d) In making any Advance hereunder Lender shall be entitled to rely upon the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered to Lender by Borrower and other information available to Lender. Lender shall be under no obligation to make any further Advance or incur any other Obligation if Borrower shall have failed to deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate to Lender by the time specified in Section 4.1(a) or if an Event of Default shall be continuing.

1.2 Term and Prepayment

  • (a) Upon the Commitment Termination Date, the obligation of Lender to make Advances and extend other credit hereunder shall immediately terminate and Borrower shall pay to Lender in full, in cash: (i) all outstanding Advances and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon; (ii) an amount sufficient to enable Lender to hold cash collateral as may be required; and (iii) all other non-contingent Obligations due to Lender.

  • (b) If the amount of Advances outstanding under the Revolving Credit Loan shall at any time exceed the Borrowing Availability applicable to the Revolving Credit Loan then Borrower shall immediately repay to Lender the amount of such excess.

  • (c) Borrower shall have the right, at any time upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Lender, to: (i) terminate voluntarily Borrower’s right to receive or benefit from, and Lender’s obligation to make, Advances; and (ii) prepay all of the Obligations. Following receipt of such notice by Lender, the effective date of termination of the Revolving Credit Loan specified in such notice shall be deemed to be the Commitment Termination Date. If Borrower exercises its right of termination and prepayment, or if Lender’s obligation to make Advances is terminated for any reason prior to the Maturity Date then in effect (including as a result of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default which is continuing), Borrower shall pay to Lender the Prepayment Fee.

1.3 Use of Proceeds

Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Advances: (i) to refinance on the Closing Date certain outstanding Indebtedness as provided in Section 2.1(b); (ii) for working capital; (iii) to fund Permitted Acquisitions, and (iv) for general corporate purposes of the Credit Parties.

1.4 Single Loan

The Advances and all of the other Obligations of Borrower to Lender shall constitute one general obligation of Borrower secured by all of the Collateral.

1.5 Interest

  • (a) Borrower shall pay interest to Lender on the aggregate outstanding Advances at a rate equal to the Canadian Dollar Interest Rate. All computations of interest shall be made by Lender on the basis of a three hundred and sixty-five (365) or three hundred and sixty-six (366) day year, as applicable, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the

  • 3 -

period for which such interest or fee is payable and shall be calculated daily and compounded (if unpaid) in arrears on the last day of each calendar month.

  • (b) Each determination by Lender of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. In no event will Lender charge interest at a rate that exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under any Applicable Law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable.

  • (c) Interest shall be payable on the Advances: (i) in arrears for the preceding calendar month on the last Business Day of each such calendar month; (ii) on the Commitment Termination Date; and (iii) if any interest accrues or remains payable after the Commitment Termination Date, upon demand by Lender.

  • (d) Effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as any Event of Default shall be continuing, the Canadian Dollar Interest Rate applicable to the Advances hereunder may, in the discretion of Lender, be increased by three percent (3%) per annum (such increased rate, the “ Default Rate ”), and all outstanding Obligations, including unpaid interest, shall continue to accrue interest from the date of such Event of Default at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations.

  • (e) If any interest or any other payment (including Unused Line Fees and Collateral Monitoring Fees) to Lender under this Agreement becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

  • (f) Borrower hereby acknowledges and confirms that it understands the conversion formulas and how to calculate any annual rate of interest contemplated in this Section and any and all fees due and payable under this Agreement. Lender agrees that promptly upon request by Borrower from time to time it will assist Borrower in calculating the effective annual rate of interest required to be disclosed pursuant to section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada).

  • (g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, in no event shall the aggregate “ interest ” (as defined in Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada)) payable under any Loan Document exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “ credit advanced ” (as defined in that section) under any Loan Document lawfully permitted by that section, nor shall the interest payable under any Loan Document exceed the rate of interest which may be lawfully charged by any other Applicable Laws having application to interest payable under any Loan Document, and, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of “ interest ” (as defined in that section) or under any such other Applicable Laws is determined to be contrary to the provisions of that section or such other Applicable Laws, such payment, collection or demand shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of Borrower and Lender and the amount of such payment or collection shall be refunded to Borrower forthwith. For the purpose of this Agreement, and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the term of the Revolving Credit Loan and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Lender will be prima facie evidence of such rate.

1.6 Cash Management System

On or prior to the Closing Date and until the Termination Date, Borrower will establish and maintain the cash management system described in Schedule C. All payments hereunder shall be made to or deposited in the Blocked Accounts described in Schedule C in accordance with the terms thereof.

  • 4 -

1.7 Fees

Borrower agrees to pay to Lender the Fees set forth in Schedule D on the dates noted therein.

1.8 Receipt of Payments

Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement (not otherwise made pursuant to Section 1.9) without set-off, counterclaim or deduction and free and clear of all Taxes on the day when due in lawful money of Canada in immediately available funds to the Blocked Accounts. If Borrower shall be required by Applicable Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from any payment to Lender under any Loan Document, then the amount payable to Lender shall be increased so that, after making all required deductions and withholdings, Lender receives an amount equal to that which it would have received had no such deductions and withholdings been made. For purposes of computing interest, Fees and determining the Net Borrowing Availability, all payments shall be deemed received by Lender one (1) Business Day following receipt of immediately available funds in the Blocked Accounts.

1.9 Application and Allocation of Payments

Borrower irrevocably agrees that Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply any and all payments against the then due and payable Obligations in such order as Lender may deem advisable. Lender is authorized to, and at its option may (without prior notice or precondition and at any time or times), but shall not be obligated to, make or cause to be made Advances on behalf of Borrower, for: (a) payment of all Fees, expenses, indemnities, charges, costs, principal, interest, or other Obligations owing by Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (b) the payment, performance or satisfaction of any of Borrower’s obligations with respect to preservation of the Collateral; or (c) any premium in whole or in part required in respect of any of the policies of insurance required by this Agreement, even if the making of any such Advance causes the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loan to exceed the Borrowing Availability, and Borrower agrees to repay immediately, in cash, any amount by which the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loan exceeds the Borrowing Availability.

1.10 Accounting

Lender is authorized to record on its books and records the date and amount of each Advance and each payment of principal and interest under the Revolving Credit Loan and such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded. Lender shall provide Borrower on a monthly basis a statement and accounting of such recordations but any failure on the part of Lender to keep any such recordation (or any errors therein) or to send a statement thereof to Borrower shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay any of the Obligations. Except to the extent that Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days after such statement and accounting is sent, notify Lender in writing of any objection Borrower may have thereto (stating with particularity the basis for such objection), such statement and accounting shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower, absent manifest error.

1.11 Indemnity

Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold Lender and its Affiliates, and their respective employees, officers, directors, professional advisors and agents (each, an “ Indemnified Person ”), harmless from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including legal fees and disbursements and other costs of investigation or defence, including those incurred upon any appeal) which may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of, or in any other way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any other documents or transactions contemplated by or referred to herein or therein and any actions or failures to act with respect to any of the foregoing, including any and all product liabilities, Environmental Liabilities,

  • 5 -

Taxes and legal costs and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with any dispute between or among any parties to any of the Loan Documents (collectively, “ Indemnified Liabilities ”), except to the extent that any such Indemnified Liability is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

1.12 Borrowing Base; Reserves

The Borrowing Base shall be determined by Lender (including the eligibility of Accounts and Equipment) based on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered to Lender in accordance with Section 4.1(a). Each Advance hereunder shall be subject to Lender’s continuing right to, without duplication, withhold from Borrowing Availability reserves (the “ Additional Borrowing Base Reserves ”), and to increase and decrease such Additional Borrowing Base Reserves from time to time, if and to the extent that in Lender’s good faith credit judgment, acting reasonably, such Additional Borrowing Base Reserves are necessary, including to protect Lender’s interest in the Collateral or to protect Lender against possible non-payment of Accounts for any reason by Account Debtors or possible diminution of the value of any Collateral or possible non-payment of any of the Obligations or for any Taxes or in respect of any state of facts which could constitute a Default. Lender may, at its option, implement such Additional Borrowing Base Reserves by designating as ineligible a sufficient amount of Accounts or Inventory which would otherwise be Eligible Accounts or Eligible Equipment, as the case may be, so as to reduce the Borrowing Base by the amount of such Additional Borrowing Base Reserves. If any Person becomes a Credit Party after the date hereof, such Person’s Accounts and Equipment shall not be deemed eligible to be Eligible Accounts or Eligible Equipment until such time as Lender has received a satisfactory Field Examination and appraisal of the assets of such Person, in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

7.2 Remedies

  • (a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then Lender may terminate or suspend its obligation to make further Advances and to incur additional Obligations. In addition, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender may, without notice, take any one or more of the following actions: (i) declare all or any portion of the Obligations to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon such Obligations shall become and be due and payable; or (ii) exercise any rights and remedies provided to Lender under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, including all remedies provided under the PPSA; provided, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Sections 7.1(e), 7.1(f) or 7.1(g), the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable (and any obligation of Lender to make further Advances, if not previously terminated, shall immediately be terminated) without declaration, notice or demand by Lender.

  • (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement expressly agrees that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange or at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, to purchase for the benefit of Lender the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity of redemption, which right Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned, or continued from time to time with or without notice. Lender shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Credit Party’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use any Credit Party’s premises without rent or other charge for such

  • 20 -

sales or other action with respect to the Collateral for such time as Lender deems necessary or advisable.

  • (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at Lender’s request by reasonable prior written notice, Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement further agrees to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at places which Lender shall reasonably select, whether at its premises or elsewhere. Until Lender is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of the Collateral, Lender shall have the right to complete, assemble, use or operate the Collateral or any part thereof, to the extent that Lender deems appropriate, for the purpose of preserving such Collateral or its value or for any other purpose. Lender shall have no obligation to any Credit Party to maintain or preserve the rights of any Credit Party as against third parties with respect to any Collateral while such Collateral is in the possession of Lender. Lender may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or receiver manager to take possession of any Collateral and to enforce any of Lender’s remedies with respect thereto without prior notice or hearing. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement waives all claims, damages, and demands against Lender, its Affiliates, agents, and the officers and employees of any of them arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of any Collateral except such as are determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen solely out of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Person. Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement agrees that ten (10) days prior notice by Lender to such Credit Party of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters. Borrower and each other Credit Party shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to which Lender is entitled.

  • (d) Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies which Lender may have under any Loan Document or at law or in equity. All provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of Applicable Law that may be controlling and to be limited, to the extent necessary, so that they do not render this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part.

7.3 Waivers by Credit Parties

Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement waives: (a) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonour, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all Loan Documents, commercial paper, Accounts, Contracts, Documents, Instruments, Chattel Paper and guarantees at any time held by Lender on which such Credit Party may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lender may do in this regard; (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Lender’s taking possession or control of, or to Lender’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, any Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Lender to exercise any of its remedies; and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption laws. Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby and any rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply to the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

7.4 Proceeds

The Proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon any Collateral shall be applied by Lender upon receipt to the Obligations in such order as Lender may deem advisable in its sole discretion and after the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all of the Obligations, and after the payment by

  • 21 -

Lender of any other amount required by any provision of Applicable Law, the surplus, if any, shall be paid to Borrower or its representatives or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

SECTION 8 MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the complete agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements, commitments, understandings or inducements (oral or written, expressed or implied). No Loan Document may be modified, altered or amended except by a written agreement signed by Lender and each other Credit Party that is a party to such Loan Document. Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall have all duties and obligations under this Agreement and such other Loan Documents from the date of its execution and delivery, regardless of whether the initial Advance has been funded at that time.

8.2 Expenses

Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of all counsel, advisors, consultants (including environmental and management consultants), field examiners, appraisers and auditors retained in connection therewith), incurred in connection with: (a) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, performance and enforcement of the Loan Documents and the preservation of any rights thereunder; (b) collection, including deficiency collections; (c) the forwarding to Borrower or any other Person on behalf of Borrower by Lender of the proceeds of any Advance; (d) any amendment, waiver or other modification with respect to any Loan Document or advice in connection with the administration of the Revolving Credit Loan or the rights thereunder; (e) any litigation, dispute, suit, proceeding or action (whether instituted by or between any combination of Lender, Borrower or any other Person), and an appeal or review thereof, in any way relating to the Collateral, any Loan Document, or any action taken or any other agreements to be executed or delivered in connection therewith, whether as a party, witness or otherwise; and (f) any effort to: (i) monitor the Revolving Credit Loan; (ii) evaluate, observe or assess Borrower or any other Credit Party or the affairs of such Person; and (iii) verify, protect, evaluate, assess, appraise, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of the Collateral. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower will reimburse Lender for the costs (including reasonable out of pocket expenses plus applicable Taxes) related to Field Examinations and inventory appraisals.

8.3 No Waiver

Neither Lender’s failure, at any time, to require strict performance by Borrower or any other Credit Party of any provision of any Loan Document, nor Lender’s failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof or waive, affect or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Any suspension or waiver of a Default or other provision under the Loan Documents shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Default or other provision under any Loan Document, and shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Lender would otherwise have had on any future occasion. None of the undertakings, indemnities, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of Borrower or any other Credit Party to Lender contained in any Loan Document and the occurrence of an Event of Default under any Loan Document shall not be deemed to have been suspended or waived by Lender, unless such waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer or other authorized employee of Lender and directed to Borrower specifying such suspension or waiver (and then such waiver shall be effective only to the extent therein expressly set forth), and Lender shall not, by any act (other than execution of a formal written waiver), delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder.

  • 22 -

8.4 Severability; Section Titles

Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of any Loan Document shall be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of such Loan Document. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in the Loan Documents, no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause or procedure) of any financing arrangement under the Loan Documents shall in any way affect or impair the Obligations, duties, covenants, representations and warranties, indemnities, and liabilities of Borrower or any other Credit Party or the rights of Lender relating to any unpaid Obligation (due or not due, liquidated, contingent or unliquidated), or any transaction or event occurring prior to such termination, or any transaction or event, the performance of which is not required until after the Commitment Termination Date, all of which shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive such termination or cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date; provided, that all indemnity obligations of the Credit Parties under the Loan Documents shall survive the Termination Date.

8.15 Illegality

In the event that Lender determines that, in consequence of any change in any Requirement of Law or any policy applicable to it that it is illegal, unlawful or legally prohibited for it to make or continue to make available the Revolving Credit Loan or any Advances or any other Obligations hereunder, it shall have the right to immediately terminate the Revolving Credit Loan or other Obligations as it shall determine necessary or appropriate and to terminate any commitment to make or continue to make Advances and/or to terminate its commitments hereunder and any of the Loan Documents as it shall determine necessary or appropriate.

All indemnities hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall survive any termination of the Loan Documents unless expressly released in writing.

8.17 Increased Costs

If, by reason of: (a) any change in any Requirement of Law (including any change by way of imposition or increase of statutory reserves or other reserve requirements) or interpretation thereof; or (b) the compliance with any guideline or request from any Governmental Authority or other Person exercising control over lenders in Canada generally (whether or not having the force of law):

  • 25 -

  • (i) Lender shall be subject to any Tax with respect to any Advance or a change shall result in the basis of taxation of any payment to Lender with respect to its obligation to make available or continue to make available the Revolving Credit Loan; or

  • (ii) any reserve (including any imposed by the board of governors or any other applicable Governmental Authority), special deposits or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, Lender shall be imposed or deemed applicable, or any other condition affecting Lender’s obligation to make any Advances, shall be imposed on Lender,

and as a result there shall be an increase in the cost to Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining the Revolving Credit Loan (except to the extent already included in determination of the rate of interest), or there shall be a reduction in the amount receivable by Lender (“ Additional Compensation ”). Upon Lender having determined that it is entitled to Additional Compensation in accordance with the provisions of this Section, Lender shall promptly notify Borrower thereof (“ Additional Compensation Notice ”) and shall provide Borrower with a photocopy of the relevant law, rule, guideline, regulation, treaty or official directive (or, if it is impracticable to provide a photocopy, a written summary of the same) and a certificate of a duly authorized officer of Lender setting forth the Additional Compensation and the basis of calculation therefor. Borrower shall pay to Lender within ten (10) Business Days of an Additional Compensation Notice such Additional Compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees that it will not claim Additional Compensation from Borrower if it is not generally claiming similar compensation from its other customers in similar circumstances.

If Lender determines that, because of circumstances described above or any other circumstances arising hereafter affecting such Lender the applicable interest rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of funding the Revolving Credit Loan, then (A) Lender shall promptly notify Borrower of such event; and (B) Lender’s obligation to make Advances shall be immediately suspended until each condition giving rise to such suspension no longer exists.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower shall only be required to compensate Lender in respect of any Additional Compensation to the extent Borrower has received a written request for such Additional Compensation within ninety (90) days after Lender has received actual notice of the occurrence of the relevant circumstance giving rise to such Additional Compensation.

8.18 Conflict

If any provision of this Agreement conflicts with and is incapable of being construed together with any other Loan Document, then the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail to the extent necessary to remove such conflict. If there is a representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or event of default contained in any Loan Document which is not contained herein, or vice versa, such additional provision shall not constitute a conflict.

8.19 Interpretation

  • (a) Any accounting term used in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall have, unless otherwise specifically provided therein, the meaning customarily given to such term in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations thereunder shall be computed, unless otherwise specifically provided therein, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied; provided, that all financial covenants and calculations in the Loan Documents shall be made in accordance with GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date unless Borrower and Lender shall otherwise specifically agree in writing. That certain items or computations are explicitly modified by the phrase “in accordance with GAAP” shall in no way be construed to limit the foregoing.

The term “ rate of exchange ” in this Section means the spot rate at which Lender, in accordance with normal practices, is able on the relevant date to purchase the Original Currency with the Second Currency, and includes any premium and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase.
