Administrative Agent hereby waives the $3,500 processing and recordation fee set forth in Section 11.04(b)(ii)(C) of the Credit Agreement with respect to the assignments and reallocations contemplated by this Section 3. The increase in each Increasing Lender’s Commitment and the acquisition by each New Lender of an interest in the Aggregate Commitment shall be deemed to have been consummated pursuant to the terms of the Lender Certificate attached as Exhibit F to the Credit Agreement as if such Increasing Lender or New Lender, as the case may be, had executed a Lender Certificate with respect to such increase or acquisition. To the extent requested by any Lender, including the Departing Lender, and in accordance with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement, Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within the time period prescribed by Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement, any amounts required to be paid by Borrower under Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement in the event the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan or the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto is required in connection with the reallocation contemplated by this Section 3.
