Incremental Credit Extensions Clause Samples
The Incremental Credit Extensions clause allows a borrower to request additional credit facilities or increases to existing loan commitments under the terms of an existing credit agreement. In practice, this clause sets out the conditions and procedures for obtaining such incremental loans, including limits on the total amount, required lender consents, and any necessary documentation or approvals. Its core function is to provide flexibility for the borrower to access more funds as needed, while ensuring that lenders retain control over the terms and risk exposure associated with any increases in credit.
Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) At any time and subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.19, the Company may request (i) one or more new tranches of term facilities (any such new term facilities, an “Incremental Term Facility” and any loans made pursuant to an Incremental Term Facility, “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or (ii) one or more increases in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments and/or add up to two new Foreign Borrower Tranches (it being agreed such new Foreign Borrower Tranche may only be borrowed by a Foreign Subsidiary) (each such increase or additional Foreign Borrower Tranche, a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase” and the loans thereunder the “Incremental Revolving Loans”, together with the Incremental Term Loans, the “Incremental Loans”) with the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) but without the consent of any Lender not providing such Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitment Increases, as the case may be; provided that
(A) (i) the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Credit Commitment Increases made during the term of this Agreement after the Execution Date shall not exceed the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Incremental Amount and (ii) any Incremental Facility shall rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the other Credit Facilities;
(B) the maturity date and weighted average life to maturity of any Incremental Facility that is a “term A facility” (which shall mean a term loan facility with amortization greater than 1% per year prior to maturity) (an “Incremental Term A Facility” and the loans thereunder, the “Incremental Term A Loans”) shall be no shorter than the maturity date and remaining weighted average life to maturity of the then-existing (or committed) Term A Loans (including any previously made Incremental Term A Loans), in each case calculated as of the date of making such Incremental Term A Loan;
Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) The Company may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request (i) the establishment of Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or (ii) during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, the establishment of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (A) at the time of such request, no Default or Event of Default shall exist and (B) all fees and expenses owing in respect of such Incremental Facility shall have been paid to the Administrative Agent. The aggregate amount of the Incremental Commitments established under this Section 2.22 together with the aggregate original principal amount of all Alternative Incremental Indebtedness incurred under Section 7.02(o) on any date shall not exceed an amount equal to the sum of (x) $100,000,000 plus (y) an additional amount such that, immediately after giving effect to the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental Amendment effectuating such Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, the First Lien Leverage Ratio shall not exceed 3.00 to 1.00, determined on a pro forma basis (excluding the cash proceeds of such incurrence and assuming that any Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and Alternative Incremental Indebtedness are secured by a Lien on the assets of the Borrower, whether or not so secured) as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements are required to have been delivered hereunder, in each case, as if such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, had been outstanding, and in the case of any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment, fully drawn, on the last day of such fiscal quarter for testing compliance therewith.
Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request (a) one or more additional tranches or additions to an existing tranche of term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or (b) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments on the same terms as the Revolving Credit Facility (except for interest rate margins and commitment fees as set forth below) (a “Revolving Commitment Increase”), in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed (x) $135,000,000 and (y) such additional amount so long as on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loan or any borrowing under such Revolving Commitment Increase (and for purposes of any calculations under this Section 2.14 (A) the cash proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans shall be excluded for purposes of calculating Consolidated First Lien Net Debt and (B) all Revolving Commitment Increase shall be deemed to be fully drawn), the Borrower’s Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio would be no greater than 3.503.75 to 1.00 (excluding, for purposes of calculating such ratio under this clause (y), Revolving Credit Loans borrowed for seasonal working capital requirements in an amount not to exceed $50,000,00075,000,000); provided that (i) both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment referred to below, no Event of Default shall exist and at the time that any such Incremental Term Loan is made (and after giving effect thereto) no Event of Default shall exist and (ii) the Borrower shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7.11 determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of the date of the most recently ended Test Period (or, if no Test Period cited in Section 7.11 has passed, the covenants in Section 7.11 for the first Test Period cited in such Section shall be satisfied as of the last four quarters ended), in each case, as if such Incremental Term Loans or any borrowings under any such Revolving Commitment Increases, as applicable, had been outstanding on the last day of such fiscal quarter of the Borrower for testing compliance therewith. Each tranche of (i) Incremental Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000 and shall be in an increment of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (provided that such amount...
Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request the establishment of one or more additional term loans, which may be of the same Class as any existing Loans or a separate Class of Loans (the “Incremental Loans”); provided that (i) (x) if the proceeds of such Indebtedness are being used to finance a Permitted Acquisition or other Investment permitted hereunder, no Event of Default under Section 10.01(a) or (e) shall have occurred and be continuing or would exist after giving effect to such Indebtedness, or (y) if otherwise, no Event of Default shall have occurred at the time of the incurrence of such Incremental Loans and be continuing or would result therefrom, (ii) no Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Loans as a result of any such request by the Borrower, and until such time, if any, as such Lender has agreed in writing in its sole discretion to provide an Incremental Loan and executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Amendment as provided below in this Section 2.14, such Lender shall not be obligated to fund any Incremental Loans, and (iii) unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each tranche of Incremental Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $10,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the next sentence). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount. Incremental Loans shall be secured by the Security Documents, and guaranteed under the Guaranty, on a pari passu basis with all other Obligations secured by the Security Documents and guaranteed under the Guaranty and shall be treated substantially the same as the existing Loans (in each case, including with respect to mandatory and voluntary prepayments); provided, however, that (i) the interest rate applicable to the Incremental Loans may differ from that applicable to the Effective Date Loans or any other tranche of Incremental Loans, but, if the Effective Yield applicable to a given tranche of Incremental Loans determined as of the initial funding date for such Incremental Loans exceeds the Effective Yield of any Effective Date L...

Each Incremental Facility shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $15,000,000 in case of Incremental Term Loans or $15,000,000 in case of Incremental Revolving Commitments, provided that such amount may be less than the applicable minimum amount if such amount represents all the remaining availability hereunder as set forth above.

Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $25,000,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Amount), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are requested to become effective (the “Increased Amount Date”), and (iii) whether such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are to be Term Commitments or commitments to make term loans with interests rates and/or amortization and/or maturity and/or other terms different from the Term B Loans (“Incremental Term Loans”). The proceeds of any Incremental Term Loans shall not be used to make Restricted Payments or prepayments of Subordinated Indebtedness pursuant to Section 10.6, Section 10.11 or otherwise.
(b) The applicable Borrowers and each Incremental Term Lender shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Incremental Amendment and such other documentation as the Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Incremental Term Lender.
