The First Amendment also increases the “accordion” feature which allows Active, subject to certain terms and conditions, to increase the lending commitments by up to $50 million. The proceeds of the Credit Facility are expected to be used, together with cash on hand, for among other things, capital expenditures and acquisitions, and to provide generally for ongoing working capital requirements and other corporate purposes.
Certain of the lenders and the agents (and their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) under the First Amendment have in the past provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking, underwriting, lending, commercial banking, trust and other advisory services to Active or its subsidiaries. These parties have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation from Active or its subsidiaries for such services.
The foregoing summary of the First Amendment is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the First Amendment, a copy of which is attached to this Report as Exhibit 10.40.
