Application of Prepayments Reductions (i) Any prepayment of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.07(a) shall be applied as specified by the Borrower in the applicable notice of prepayment; provided, in the event the Borrower fails to specify the Loans to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment shall be applied to prepay each Class of outstanding Loans on a pro rata basis and, within each Class, to reduce the remaining scheduled installments of principal in direct order of maturity.
(ii) Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(i) and Section 2.07(b)(iv) shall be applied ratably to each Class of outstanding Loans and, within each such Class, (i) first, to reduce the next eight scheduled payments required under Section 2.06(a) (or the applicable Incremental Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Extension Amendment) in direct order of maturity and (ii) second, to the remaining scheduled payments required thereunder on a pro rata basis; provided that, if at the time any amount is required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(i) the Borrower is required to offer to repurchase or prepay Permitted Pari Passu Refinancing Debt or Incremental Equivalent Debt pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with Net Cash Proceeds received from an Asset Sale or Recovery Event (such Permitted Pari Passu Refinancing Debt or Incremental Equivalent Debt required to be offered to be so repurchased or prepaid, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then the Borrower may apply such Net Cash Proceeds on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such proceeds allocated to Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be allocated to the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Loans and to the repurchase or prepayment of such Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Loans that would otherwise have been required pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(i) shall be reduced accordingly; provided, further, that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness purchased or prepaid, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.
(iii) Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(ii) and Section 2.07(b)(v) shall be applied ratably to each Class of outstanding Loans and, within each such Class, to the remaining scheduled payments required thereunder on a pro rata basis.
(iv) Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(iii) shall be applied ratably to each Class of outstanding Loans and, within each such Class, (i) first, to reduce the next eight scheduled payments required under Section 2.06(a) (or the applicable Incremental Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Extension Amendment) in direct order of maturity and (ii) second, to the remaining scheduled payments required thereunder on a pro rata basis; provided that any prepayment of Loans with the Net Cash Proceeds of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied solely to each applicable Class of Credit Agreement Refinanced Debt.
(v) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Borrower is required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Loans (other than any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(v)), not less than five Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the Borrower is required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Loan of the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount (such declined amount, the “Declined Proceeds”). Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). Any Declined Proceeds may be retained by the Borrower.
Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions (a) If any Capital Stock shall be issued by the US Borrower (other than as set forth below with respect to Excluded Proceeds) or (ii) if any Indebtedness shall be incurred by any Group Member, excluding any Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Section 7.2 as in effect on the Closing Date (except Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 7.2(g)(i)(x)), then on the date of such issuance or incurrence, the Term Loans shall be prepaid, and/or the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid, by an amount equal to, in the case of an issuance of Capital Stock, 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, or in the case of Indebtedness, 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds, other than any Excluded Proceeds, of such issuance or incurrence, as set forth in Section 2.13(d). The provisions of this Section do not constitute a consent to the issuance of any equity securities by any entity whose equity securities are pledged pursuant to the Guarantee and US Collateral Agreement or the Canadian Collateral Agreement, or a consent to the incurrence of any Indebtedness by any Group Member.
(b) If on any date any Group Member shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale, Purchase Price Refund or Recovery Event then, except as provided in the following sentence, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, on the date of receipt by such Group Member of such Net Cash Proceeds, the Term Loans shall be prepaid, and/or the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid, by an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, as set forth in Section 2.13(d); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales and Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to one or more Reinvestment Notices and pending reinvestment at any given time shall not exceed $40,000,000 and (ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date the Term Loans shall be prepaid, and/or the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid, by an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event, as set forth in Section 2.13(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Net Cash Proceeds received from dispositions permitted by Section 7.5(e) shall be applied on the date of receipt to repay outstanding Revolving Loans. The provisions of this Section do not constitute a consent to the consummation of any Disposition not permitted by Section 7.5.
(c) If for any fiscal year of the US Borrower commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 there shall be Excess Cash Flow, then, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, the Term Loans shall be prepaid and/or the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid, by an amount equal to 50% of such Excess Cash Flow, as set forth in Section 2.13(d). Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the US Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered.
(d) Except as otherwise provided in clause (b) above with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received from dispositions permitted by Section 7.5(e), amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments and Commitment reductions made pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be applied, first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans and, second, to the repayment of the Revolving Credit Loans, as provided in Section 2.19. Any repayment of Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall not result in a reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments.
(e) If at any time the Dollar Equivalent of the total aggregate amount of the Revolving US/CA Extensions of Credit exceeds the Total Revolving Credit US/CA Commitments, the Borrowers shall repay Revolving Credit US/CA Loans and/or Swing Line Loans to such extent; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit US/CA Loans and Swing Line Loans is less than such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrowers shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in a cash collateral account established with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If at any time the total aggregate amount of the Revolving CA Extensions of Credit exceeds the Total Revolving Credit CA Commitments, the Canadian Borrower shall repay Revolving Credit CA Loans and/or Swing Line Loans to such extent; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit CA Loans and Swing Line Loans to the Canadian Borrower is less than such excess (because L/C Obligations of the Canadian Borrower constitute a portion thereof), the Canadian Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace its outstanding Letters or Credit and/or deposit an amount in a cash collateral account established with the Canadian Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Canadian Agent.
(f) If at any time the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of the Total Extensions of Credit exceeds the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrowers shall repay Revolving Credit Loans and/or Swing Line Loans to such extent; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans is less than such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrowers shall to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in a cash collateral account established with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of Loans Except as provided in subsection 2.4D, any amount required to be applied as a mandatory prepayment of the Loans and/or a reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount pursuant to subsections 2.4B(iii)(a)-(f) shall be applied first to prepay the Term Loans to the full extent thereof, second, to the extent of any remaining portion of such amount, to prepay the Swing Line Loans to the full extent thereof and to permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount by the amount of such prepayment, third, to the extent of any remaining portion of such amount, to prepay the Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof and to further permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount by the amount of such prepayment, fourth, to the extent of any remaining portion of such amount, to further permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount to the full extent thereof and fifth, to the extent of any remaining portion of such amount, to cash collateralize any outstanding Letters of Credit. Any mandatory reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount pursuant to this subsection 2.4B shall be in proportion to each Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share.
