Changes of Commitments (a) The Aggregate Commitments shall at all times be equal to the lesser of (i) the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts after adjustments resulting from reductions pursuant to Section 2.03(b) or increases pursuant to Section 2.03(d), and (ii) the Borrowing Base as determined from time to time. (b) The Company shall have the right to terminate or to reduce the amount of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts at any time or from time to time upon not less than three (3) Business Days' prior notice to the Agent (which shall promptly notify the Banks) of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction (which shall not be less than $10,000,000, or any whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof) and shall be irrevocable and effective only upon receipt by the Agent. The Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts once terminated or reduced may not be reinstated. (c) [reserved] (d) The Company shall have the right, without the consent of the Banks but subject to the approval of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), to effectuate from time to time an increase in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts under this Agreement by adding to this Agreement one or more commercial banks or other financial institutions (who shall, upon completion of the requirements stated in this Section 2.03(d), constitute Banks hereunder), or by allowing one or more Banks to increase their Maximum Credit Amount hereunder, so that such added and increased Maximum Credit Amount(s) shall equal the increase in Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts effectuated pursuant to this Section 2.03(d); provided that: (i) no increase in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) shall result in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts exceeding $500,000,000, (ii) no Bank's Maximum Credit Amount shall be increased without the consent of such Bank, (iii) the Company shall prepay all of the Loans on the date of such increase and the Company may (subject to Sections 2.01, 2.02 and 6.02 and the other provisions hereof) reborrow on such date from the Banks based on the new Percentage Shares and shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 5.05 as a result of such prepayment, and (iv) the Company shall not have the right to increase the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) if any Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such increase. The Company shall give the Agent three (3) Business Days' prior written notice of its intent to increase the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.03(d). Such notice shall specify each new commercial bank or other financial institution, if any, the changes in amounts of Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts that will result, and such other information as is reasonably requested by the Agent. Each new commercial bank or other financial institution, and each Bank agreeing to increase its Maximum Credit Amount, shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Acceptance Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit F pursuant to which it becomes a party hereto or increases its Maximum Credit Amount, as the case may be, which document, in the case of a new commercial bank or other financial institution, shall (among other matters) specify the Applicable Lending Office of such new commercial bank or other financial institution. In addition, the Agent shall prepare and deliver to the Company and each Bank a new Annex I reflecting the new Percentage Share of each Bank and its Maximum Credit Amount. Finally, the Company shall execute and deliver a Note, in substantially the form of Exhibit A, in the principal amount of the Maximum Credit Amount of each new commercial bank or other financial institution, or a replacement Note in the principal amount of the increased Maximum Credit Amount of each Bank agreeing to increase its Maximum Credit Amount, as the case may be. The Company shall also deliver other documents of the nature referred to in Section 6.01(a) to the Agent in such form and substance as may be reasonably required by it. Upon execution and delivery of the appropriate documentation and the delivery to it of its Note, such new commercial bank or other financial institution shall constitute a "Bank" hereunder with a Maximum Credit Amount as specified in the new Annex I delivered pursuant to this Section 2.03(d), or such Bank's Maximum Credit Amount shall increase as specified therein, as the case may be.
