This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Revolving Maturity Date by Borrower, effective three (3) Business Days after written notice of termination is given to Bank or if Bank’s obligation to fund Credit Extensions terminates pursuant to the terms of Section 2.1.1(c). If such termination is at Borrower’s election or at Bank’s election due to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay to Bank, in addition to the payment of any other expenses or fees then-owing, a termination fee in an amount equal to 2.0% of the Maximum Revolving Line if termination occurs on or before the first anniversary of the September 2010 Amendment Effective Date, and 1.0% of the Maximum Revolving Line if termination occurs after the first anniversary of the September 2010 Amendment Effective Date; provided that no termination fee shall be charged if the credit facility hereunder is replaced with a new facility from another division of Silicon Valley Bank.
