Extension of Commitments. (a) At least 45 days but not more than 60 days prior to the first first, second, third and/or second fourth anniversaries of the Closing Date, the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an extension of the Termination Date in effect at such time by one year from its then scheduled expiration; provided, however, that such request may not be exercised by the Borrower more than twice. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender Party of such request, and each Lender Party shall in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 30 days prior to the applicable anniversary date, notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Lender Party will consent to such extension. If any Lender Party shall fail to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of its consent to any such request for extension of the Termination Date at least 30 days prior to such anniversary date, such Lender Party shall be deemed to be a Non-Consenting Lender with respect to such request. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower not later than 25 days prior to the applicable anniversary date of the decision of the Lender Parties regarding the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Termination Date.
(b) If all the Lender Parties consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, the Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the Termination Date (the “Extension Date”), be extended for one year. If less than all of the Lender Parties consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, the Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable Extension Date and subject to subsection (d) of this Section 2.16, be extended as to those Lender Parties that so consented (each a “Consenting Lender”) but shall not be extended as to any other Lender Party (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”). To the extent that the Termination Date is not extended as to any Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.16 and the Commitment(s) of such Lender Party are not assumed in accordance with subsection (c) of this Section 2.16 on or prior to the applicable Extension Date, the Commitment(s) of such Non-Consenting Lender shall automatically terminate in whole on such unextended Termination Date without any further notice or other action by the Borrower, such Lender Party or any other Person; provided that such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights under Sections 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 11.3 and 11.4 and its obligations under Section 10.2, shall survive the Termination Date for such Lender Party as to matters occurring prior to such date. It is understood and agreed that no Lender Party shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Borrower for any requested extension of the Termination Date.
(c) If less than all of the Lender Parties consent to any such request pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, the Borrower may arrange for one or more Consenting Lenders or other Person eligible to be an assignee of a Lender pursuant to Section 11.11.1 (an “Eligible Assignee”) to assume, effective as of the Extension Date, any Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment(s) and all of the obligations of such Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Non-Consenting Lender; provided, however, that:
(i) any such Consenting Lender or Eligible Assignee shall have paid to such Non-Consenting Lender (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the effective date of the assignment on, the outstanding Advances, if any, of such Non-Consenting Lender plus (B) any accrued but unpaid facility fees owing to such Non-Consenting Lender as of the effective date of such assignment;
(ii) all additional costs reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities payable to such Non-Consenting Lender, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder, as of the effective date of such assignment shall have been paid to such Non-Consenting Lender; and
(iii) with respect to any such Eligible Assignee, the applicable processing and recordation fee required under Section 11.11.1 for such assignment shall have been paid; provided further that such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights under Sections 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 11.3 and 11.4, and its obligations under Section 10.2, shall survive such substitution as to matters occurring prior to the date of substitution. At least three Business Days prior to any Extension Date, (A) each such Eligible Assignee, if any, shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, duly executed by such Eligible Assignee, such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (B) any such Consenting Lender shall have delivered confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent as to the increase in the amount of its Commitment and (C) each Non-Consenting Lender being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent any Note or Notes held by such Non-Consenting Lender. Upon the payment or prepayment of all amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, each such Consenting Lender or Eligible Assignee, as of the Extension Date, will be substituted for such Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement and shall be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Lenders, and the obligations of each such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged.
(d) If (after giving effect to any assignments or assumptions pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 2.16) Lenders having Revolving Credit Commitments equal to at least 50% of the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date consent in writing to a requested extension not later than one Business Day prior to such Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower, and the Termination Date then in effect shall be extended for the additional one-year period as described in subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, and all references in this Agreement, and in the Notes, if any, to the “Termination Date” shall, with respect to each Consenting Lender and each Eligible Assignee for such Extension Date, refer to the Termination Date as so extended. Promptly following each Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lender Parties (including, without limitation, each Eligible Assignee) of the extension of the scheduled Termination Date in effect immediately prior thereto and shall thereupon record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each such Consenting Lender and each such Eligible Assignee.
