“(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lenders with Revolver Commitments shall have no obligation to make any additional Advances, if, either immediately before or after giving effect to any such Advance:

 

(i) the Credit Facility Obligations then outstanding exceed the result of (y) the Borrowing Base minus (z) $2,500,000 (the amount of such excess hereafter referred to as the “Credit Facility Deficit”);

 

(ii) the sum of the Revolver Usage plus the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding exceeds 3.25 times the trailing 12 months EBITDAP of Parent and its Subsidiaries for the immediately preceding 12 month period (the amount of such excess is hereafter referred to as the “EBITDAP Deficit”);

(vi) such additional Advance would cause the sum of (A) the Revolver Usage plus (B) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan A plus (C) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan B to exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount.

 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lenders with Revolver Commitments shall not make any additional Advances if, either immediately before or after giving effect to any such Advance, such additional Advance would cause the sum of (i) the Revolver Usage plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan A plus (iii) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan B to exceed $30,000,000.

On the last day of each applicable Interest Period, unless Administrative Borrower properly has exercised or continued the LIBOR Option with respect to all or any portion of the Advances or the Term Loan A, the interest rate applicable to such portion of the Advances or the Term Loan A that are LIBOR Rate Loans automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans of the same type hereunder. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers no longer shall have the option to request that Advances or the Term Loan A bear interest at the LIBOR Rate and Agent shall have the right to convert the interest rate on all or any portion of the Advances or the Term Loan A that are LIBOR Rate Loans to the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder.”
