On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement (including Article V), from time to time on any Business Day occurring prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make loans (relative to such Revolving Lender, its “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrowers equal to such Revolving Lender's Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Borrowing of the Revolving Loans requested by the Borrowers to be made on such day.

The Administrative Agent shall select and reasonably approve one or more Lenders to participate in any Revolver Increase.  Lenders shall have no obligation and no right to participate in any Revolver Increase.
(ii) Revolving Loan Availability.  No Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made if, after giving effect thereto the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all the Revolving Loans (x) of all the Revolving Lenders would exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount or (y) of any Revolving Lender would exceed such Revolving Lender's Percentage of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.

(iii) Reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.
(x) Optional Reduction.  The Borrowers may, from time to time on any Business Day after the date of the initial Borrowing on the Revolving Loan, voluntarily reduce the unused amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount; provided, however, that (i) all such reductions shall be made on not less than one nor more than five Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent and be permanent, (ii) any partial reduction of the unused amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and (iii) the Revolving Loans shall have been prepaid to the extent required by Section 3.1.2.
(y) Mandatory Reduction.  The Revolving Loan Commitment Amount shall be permanently reduced by the aggregate amount that the Revolving Loans are prepaid or repaid (or would be prepaid or repaid if the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans was not less than such amount) pursuant to clause (b) of Section 3.1.2 (but without giving effect to the penultimate sentence of clause (b) of Section 3.1.2) at any time that the Term Loans and any Incremental Term Loans have been paid in full and the Loan to Value Ratio is greater than 50%, calculated on a pro forma basis.
(iv)    Borrowing Procedures.
(x) Borrowing Requests.  By delivering a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on a Business Day occurring prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, the Borrowers may from time to time irrevocably request that (i) a Base Rate Loan be made not less than one nor more than five Business Days thereafter or that (ii) a LIBOR Loan be made not less than three nor more than five Business Days thereafter; provided, however, that no Revolving Loan shall be made as a LIBOR Loan for an Interest Period extending beyond the Stated Maturity Date.

On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each Borrowing shall be made on the Business Day specified in such Borrowing Request.  On or before 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Business Day each Revolving Lender shall deposit with the Administrative Agent same day funds in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender's Percentage of the requested Borrowing.  Such deposit will be made to an account which the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Revolving Lenders. To the extent funds are received from the Revolving Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrowers by wire transfer to the accounts the Borrowers shall have specified in their Borrowing Request.  No Revolving Lender's obligation to make any Revolving Loan shall be affected by any other Revolving Lender's failure to make any Revolving Loan.  Nothing in this Section 2.1.1(c)(iv)(y) or elsewhere 

in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require the Administrative Agent (or any other Lender) to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at the interest rate applicable to LIBOR Loans.
