Letters of Credit. During the Availability Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Banks agree to issue Letters of Credit (or amend, extend or increase an outstanding Letter of Credit) at the request and for the account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (the “Applicable Account Party”) in the aggregate Dollar Equivalent up to but not exceeding the Letter of Credit Sublimit and denominated in dollars or in a Permitted Foreign Currency; provided # the amount of each Letter of Credit shall not be less than $100,000 for Letters of Credit issued in dollars (or, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued in a Permitted Foreign Currency, the smallest amount of such Permitted Foreign Currency that is an integral multiple of 100,000 units of such currency and that has a Dollar Equivalent in excess of $100,000) or, in each case, such lesser amount as is acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank; # after giving effect to such issuance or increase, in no event shall # the Aggregate Total Exposure exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect or # any Lender’s Total Exposure exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; # after giving effect to such issuance or increase, in no event shall the Letter of Credit Usage exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect, # after giving effect to such issuance or increase, unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Issuing Bank in writing, in no event shall the Letter of Credit Usage with respect to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank exceed the Letter of Credit Issuer Sublimit of such Issuing Bank then in effect, and # in no event shall any Letter of Credit have an expiration date later than the earlier of # the fifth Business Day prior to the Maturity Date and # the date which is twelve months from the original date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Subject to the foregoing, the applicable Issuing Bank may agree that a Letter of Credit will automatically be extended for one or more successive periods not to exceed one year each, unless the applicable Issuing Bank elects not to extend for any such additional period and provides notice to that effect to the Borrower and the Applicable Account Party; provided that such Issuing Bank shall not extend any such Letter of Credit if it has received written notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at least one Business Day prior to the last Business Day that such Issuing Bank may elect not to allow such extension; provided, further, if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Banks shall not be required to issue, amend, extend or increase any Letter of Credit unless the applicable Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit of such Defaulting Lender, including by Cash Collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Letter of Credit Usage at such time on terms satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower and the Applicable Account Party when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP or UCP 600, as applicable, shall be stated therein to apply to each Letter of Credit.

Letters of Credit. With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to the preceding paragraph, demand that the Borrower deposit in a Cash Collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to 103% of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such Cash Collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay the other Obligations in accordance with [Section 9.4]. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, the Reimbursement Obligation shall have been satisfied and all other Obligations shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such Cash Collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Issuer shall issue or cause the issuance of standby letters of credit denominated in either Dollars or an Optional Currency ("Letters of Credit") for the account of any Borrower except to the extent that the issuance thereof would then cause the sum of # the outstanding Revolving Advances plus # the outstanding Swing Loans, plus # the Dollar Equivalent of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, plus # the Dollar Equivalent of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of the Letter of Credit to be issued to exceed the Availability at such time. The Dollar Equivalent of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed in the aggregate at any time the Letter of Credit Sublimit. All disbursements or payments related to Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Domestic Rate Loans consisting of Revolving Advances and shall bear interest at the Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans (and if such disbursement or payment was made in an Optional Currency, the amount of such Revolving Advance shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such disbursement or payment). Letters of Credit that have not been drawn upon shall not bear interest (but fees shall accrue in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit as provided in Section 3.2 hereof).

On the effective date of the Trust Agreement, the DB SERP shall become a retirement compensation arrangement within the meaning of the Income Tax Act.

Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein and in the other Loan Documents, Borrower may utilize up to FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($50,000.00) of the Revolving Loan Commitment to issue Letters of Credit from time to time. For the avoidance of any doubt, all Letter of Credit Obligations, including any amounts advanced hereunder for the issuance of Letters of Credit, shall constitute part of the Revolving Exposure for purposes of reducing Borrowing Availability.
