The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Facility Agreement. Each Refinancing Facility Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Refinancing [[Organization A:Organization]], effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this Section, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Refinancing Commitments and Refinancing Loans as a new Class of Commitments and/or Loans hereunder (including for purposes of prepayments and voting (it being agreed that such new Class of Commitments and/or Loans may be afforded class voting rights requiring the consent of [[Organization A:Organization]] under such Class in addition to any other consent of [[Organization A:Organization]] that might otherwise be required under [Section 9.02]) and to enable such new Class of Commitments and/or Loans to be extended under [Section 2.22] or refinanced under this Section).

Each such notice shall specify the applicable Class(es) of Loans being refinanced and the date (each, a “Refinancing Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Refinancing Term Loans shall be made, which shall be a date not earlier than five (5) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion); provided that:

At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments then outstanding) or, to the extent declined by an existing Lender after having five (5) Business Days to respond after written notice from the Agent (which shall be redeemed rejected if not received at the end of such five (5) Business Days period), any new lender (provided that if Administrative Agent would have consent rights with respect to such new lender under ‎[Section 11.04] herein were such new lender to take an assignment of Loans or Commitments hereunder, then such new lender shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower) (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

# will, to the extent in the form of Refinancing Revolving Loans or Refinancing Revolving Loan Commitments, participate in the payment, borrowing, participation and commitment reduction provisions herein on a pro rata basis with any all then-outstanding Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments; # subject to the provisions of [Section 2.17(k)], all Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all [[Organization B:Organization]] with Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Commitments (and except as provided in [Sections 2.17(k)], without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier maturity date with respect to Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued); and # any Additional Lender shall execute and deliver an acknowledgment to the Agreement Among [[Organization B:Organization]], such acknowledgment to be in a customary form or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Refinanced Debt incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Refinancing Term Loans or Refinancing Revolving Loans) and any Indebtedness being replaced or refinanced with such Refinanced Debt shall be deemed permanently reduced and satisfied in all respects. Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other [[Organization B:Organization]], effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section.
