Optional Increase in Commitments Following the Effective Date, the Borrower may, if it so elects, increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments, either by designating a financial institution not theretofore a Lender (a “New Lender”) to become a Lender (such designation to be effective only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender, which consents will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), or by agreeing with an existing Lender that such Lender’s Commitment shall be increased. Upon execution and delivery by the Borrower and such Lender or New Lender of an instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, together with such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Borrower with respect to the increased Commitments and such opinions of counsel for the Borrower with respect to the increased Commitments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, such existing Lender shall have a Commitment as therein set forth or such other financial institution shall become a Lender with a Commitment as therein set forth and all the rights and obligations of a Lender with such a Commitment hereunder; provided:
(i) that the Borrower shall provide prompt notice of such increase to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly notify the Lenders;
(ii) the conditions set forth in Sections 3.02(c) and (d) shall be satisfied on and as of the effective date of any increase in Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18;
(iii) that any such increase shall be in an amount which is a multiple of $10,000,000; and
(iv) that immediately after such increase is made, the aggregate amount of increases in the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall not exceed $250,000,000. On the effective date of any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18, (i) each New Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate outstanding Loans (and funded participations, if any, in Letters of Credit) and (ii) any Lender whose Commitment has been increased (an “Increasing Lender”) shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the increase in its pro rata share of the aggregate outstanding Loans (and funded participations as above); in each case such payments shall be for the account of each other Lender. Upon receipt of such amount by the Administrative Agent, (A) each other Lender shall be deemed to have ratably assigned that portion of its outstanding Loans that is being reduced to the New Lenders and the Increasing Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s new Commitment or the increased portion thereof as applicable, (B) the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each other Lender its ratable share of the amounts received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph and (C) the participations of the Lenders in outstanding Letters of Credit shall be determined in accordance with their Commitments after giving effect to such increase. For the avoidance of doubt, no existing Lender shall have any obligation to participate in such increase except in its absolute and sole discretion.
Incremental Facility (a) The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request, prior to the Maturity Date, one or more increases to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “New Commitments”), by an aggregate amount for all New Commitments not in excess of the Incremental Available Amount (subject to Section 1.07, determined as of the date of effectiveness of such New Commitments) and not less than $25,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by the Administrative Agent or that shall constitute the remaining amount of New Commitments permitted to be incurred pursuant to this Section 2.18 at such time), and integral multiples of $25,000,000 in excess of that amount. Each such notice shall specify (A) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which Borrower proposes that the New Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and which may be contingent upon the closing of an acquisition or other transaction and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an eligible assignee under Section 9.04(b), subject to approval thereof by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks in the case of a Person that is not a Lender, to the extent such approval is required in the case of an assignment to such Person pursuant to such Section 9.04(b) (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (each, a “New Lender”), to whom Borrower proposes any portion of such New Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations (it being understood that the identity of such Lenders or other Persons may be amended after the date of such notice so long as the approval requirements, if any, are satisfied); provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Commitment. Such New Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that, subject to Section 1.07 (except as set forth in the parenthetical proviso to clause (1) below), (1) on such Increased Amount Date, each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02(a) and (b) (with references therein to the “Effective Date” being deemed to refer instead to such Increased Amount Date and, in the case of Section 4.02(b), before and after giving effect to such New Commitment) shall be satisfied (provided that if the proceeds of the Loans under such New Commitments are to be used to consummate a Limited Conditionality Acquisition, (x) no Specified Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the Increased Amount Date before and after giving effect to such New Commitments (it being understood that the requirements of Section 4.02(b) shall otherwise be complied with in accordance with Section 1.07) and (y) the requirements of Section 4.02(a) shall be subject to, if agreed to by the lenders providing such New Commitments, customary “SunGard” or other customary applicable “certain funds” conditionality provisions (including the accuracy of the representations and warranties contained in the applicable acquisition agreement as are material to the interests of the lenders providing such New Commitments, but only to the extent that the Borrower or any of its Affiliates has the right to terminate its obligations under such acquisition agreement as a result of the failure of such representation or warranty to be accurate)); (2) the New Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower, each Guarantor, if any, the New Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and each New Lender shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.14; (3) Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Sections 2.12 and 2.13 in connection with the New Commitments; and (4) Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the New Lenders or the Issuing Banks in connection with any such transaction.
(b) On any Increased Amount Date on which New Commitments are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the Lenders shall assign to each of the New Lenders, and each of the New Lenders shall purchase from each of the Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Usage outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans and participation interests in Letter of Credit Usage will be held by existing Lenders and New Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Commitments to the Revolving Commitments, (ii) each New Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment and each Revolving Loan made thereunder (a “New Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan, and (iii) each New Lender shall become a Lender for all purposes hereunder.
(c) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt of the Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (i) the New Commitments and the New Lenders, and (ii) the respective interests in such Lender’s Revolving Loans and participation interests in Letter of Credit Usage, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this Section 2.18.
(d) The terms and provisions (including pricing) of the New Loans shall be identical to the existing Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (x) the New Loans will not be guaranteed by any Person other than (1) the Guarantors or (2) any Person that shall, substantially concurrently with the incurrence of such New Loans, become a Guarantor and (y) the New Loans will not be secured by any assets not constituting the Collateral, unless such assets are substantially concurrently pledged to secure the Secured Obligations on an equal and ratable basis. Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02 to the contrary, each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.18.
Incremental Facilities (a) The Borrower may by written notice to Administrative Agent elect to request the establishment of one or more (x) additional tranches of term loans (the commitments thereto, the “New Term Loan Commitments”) and/or (y) increases in Revolving Credit Commitments (the “New Revolving Credit Commitments” and, together with the New Term Loan Commitments, the “New Loan Commitments”), by an aggregate amount not in excess of the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount in the aggregate and not less than $100,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount as (x) may be approved by the Administrative Agent or (y) shall constitute the difference between the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount and all such New Loan Commitments obtained on or prior to such date). Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the New Loan Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower may approach any Lender or any Person (other than a natural person) to provide all or a portion of the New Loan Commitments; provided that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of the New Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Loan Commitment. In each case, such New Loan Commitments shall become effective as of the applicable Increased Amount Date; provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Loan Commitments, as applicable; (ii) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of New Term Loans or New Revolving Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 7 shall be satisfied; (iii) the New Loan Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower and Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 5.4(d); (iv) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.11 in connection with the New Loan Commitments, as applicable; and (v) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Any New Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated, a separate series (a “Series”) of New Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that (A) if the use of proceeds of such New Loan Commitments is an acquisition or investment permitted under this Agreement, if agreed among the Borrower and the New Revolving Loan Lenders and/or New Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, customary “SunGard” limited conditionality shall apply to the effectiveness of such new Loan Commitments in lieu of the conditions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and if applicable, (v), above and (B) if such New Loan Commitments are being used to replace or refinance Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition of Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount (“Refinancing Commitments”), the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not apply.
(b) On any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Credit Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (a) each of the Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments shall assign to each Lender with a New Revolving Credit Commitment (each, a “New Revolving Loan Lender”) and each of the New Revolving Loan Lenders shall purchase from each of the Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments, at the principal amount thereof and in the applicable currency(ies), such interests in the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, the Revolving Credit Loans will be held by existing Revolving Credit Lenders and New Revolving Loan Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Revolving Credit Commitments to the Revolving Credit Commitments, (b) each New Revolving Credit Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan made thereunder (a “New Revolving Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Credit Loan and (c) each New Revolving Loan Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the New Revolving Credit Commitment and all matters relating thereto.
(c) On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Term Loan Commitments of any Series are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each Lender with a New Term Loan Commitment (each, a “New Term Loan Lender”) of any Series shall make a Loan to the Borrower (a “New Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its New Term Loan Commitment of such Series, and (ii) each New Term Loan Lender of any Series shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the New Term Loan Commitment of such Series and the New Term Loans of such Series made pursuant thereto.
(d) The terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the applicable Joinder Agreement, identical to one or more Classes of the existing Initial Term Loans; provided that (i) the applicable New Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no earlier than the 2018B Second New Term Loan Maturity Date (or in the case of New Term Loans that are Refinancing Commitments, no earlier than that of the Term Loans being refinanced) and mandatory prepayment rights (other than scheduled amortization) of the New Term Loans and the existing Term Loans shall be identical, (ii) the fees, pricing and the amortization schedule applicable to the New Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement; provided that the weighted average life to maturity of all New Term Loans shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the 2018B Second New Term Loans (or in the case of New Term Loans that are Refinancing Commitments, no shorter than that of the Term Loans being refinanced) and (iii) all other terms applicable to the New Term Loans of each Series that differ from the existing Term Loans shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (as evidenced by its execution of the applicable Joinder Agreement). The terms and provisions of the New Revolving Loans and New Revolving Credit Commitments shall be identical to the 2020 Revolving Credit Loans and the 2020 Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that New Revolving Credit Commitments may provide for (a) a commitment termination date that is later than the commitment termination date of the 2020 Revolving Credit Commitments (or in the case of New Revolving Credit Commitments that are Refinancing Commitments, later than the commitment termination date of the Revolving Credit Commitments being refinanced) and (b) fees and pricing as agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders providing such New Revolving Credit Commitments.
(e) Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provision of this Section 2.14.
(i) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans of any Class (an “Existing Term Loan Class”) be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Term Loans (any such Term Loans which have been so converted, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.14(f). In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Term Loan Class) (a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall be identical to the Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class from which they are to be converted except (x) the scheduled final maturity date shall be extended and all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class (with any such delay resulting in a corresponding adjustment to the scheduled amortization payments reflected in Section 2.5 or in the Joinder Agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the Existing Term Loan Class from which such Extended Term Loans were converted, in each case as more particularly set forth in paragraph (iv) of this Section 2.14(f) below) and (y) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Term Loans may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Class converted into Extended Term Loans pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Term Loans of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Existing Term Loan Class from which they were converted.
(ii) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments, any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and/or any New Revolving Credit Commitments, each existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Revolving Credit Commitment” and any related revolving credit loans thereunder, “Existing Revolving Credit Loans”; each Existing Revolving Credit Commitment and related Existing Revolving Credit Loans together being referred to as an “Existing Revolving Credit Class”) be converted to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of Loans related to such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (any such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments which have been so extended, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments” and any related Loans, “Extended Revolving Credit Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.14(f). In order to establish any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Class of Existing Revolving Credit Commitments) (a “Revolving Credit Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment”) except (x) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitments, (y)
(A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitments and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A) and (z) the revolving credit commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be higher or lower than the Revolving Credit Commitment Fee Rate for the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.14(f) or otherwise, (1) the borrowing and repayment (other than in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to any Old Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Old Revolving Credit Commitments and (2) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and Extended Revolving Credit Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Credit Commitments and the Revolving Credit Loans related to such Commitments set forth in Section 13.6. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments of any Existing Revolving Credit Class converted into Extended Revolving Credit Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class of revolving credit commitments from the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitments and from any other Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (together with any other Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so established on such date).
(iii) The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least ten (10) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Class or Existing Classes are requested to respond. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments, New Revolving Credit Commitment or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment of the Existing Class or Existing Classes subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments, New Revolving Credit Commitment or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment of the Existing Class or Existing Classes subject to such Extension Request that it has elected to convert into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable. In the event that the aggregate amount of Term Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments, New Revolving Credit Commitment or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment of the Existing Class or Existing Classes subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, New Revolving Credit Commitments or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of the Existing Class or Existing Classes subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Term Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments, New Revolving Credit Commitment or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment included in each such Extension Election. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Revolving Credit Commitment (other than a New Revolving Credit Commitment) into an Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, such Extended Revolving Credit Commitment shall be treated identically to all other Old Revolving Credit Commitments for purposes of the obligations of a Revolving Credit Lender in respect of Swingline Loans under Section 2.1(c) and Letters of Credit under Article 3, except that the applicable Extension Amendment may provide that the Swingline Maturity Date and/or the Revolving Letter of Credit Maturity Date may be extended and the related obligations to make Swingline Loans and issue Revolving Letters of Credit may be co
Increase in Revolving Commitments (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request that the total Revolving Commitment be increased by an aggregate amount not to exceed the Incremental Revolving Facility Amount at such time. Upon the receipt of such request by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy thereof to each Revolving Lender. Such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested increase (which shall be in minimum increments of $500,000 and a minimum amount of $2,500,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Revolving Facility Amount) and the date on which such increase is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice and which, in any event, must be prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date), and shall offer each Revolving Lender the opportunity to increase its Revolving Commitment by its Pro Rata Percentage of the proposed increased amount. Each Revolving Lender shall, by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent given not more than 10 days after the date of the Administrative Agent’s notice, either agree to increase its Revolving Commitment by all or a portion of the offered amount (each Revolving Lender so agreeing being an “Increasing Revolving Lender”) or decline to increase its Revolving Commitment (and any Revolving Lender that does not deliver such a notice within such period of 10 days shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Commitment) (each Revolving Lender so declining or being deemed to have declined being a Non-Increasing Revolving Lender”). In the event that, on the 10th day after the Administrative Agent shall have delivered a notice pursuant to the second sentence of this paragraph, the Increasing Revolving Lenders shall have agreed pursuant to the preceding sentence to increase their Revolving Commitments by an aggregate amount less than the increase requested by the Borrower, such Borrower may arrange for one or more banks or other entities (any such bank or other entity being called an “Augmenting Revolving Lender”), which may include any Lender, to extend Revolving Commitments or increase their existing Revolving Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to the unsubscribed amount; provided, however, that each Augmenting Revolving Lender shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the Borrower and each Augmenting Revolving Lender shall execute all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence its Revolving Commitment and/or its status as a Revolving Lender hereunder, Any such increase may be made in an amount that is less than the increase requested by the Borrower if such Borrower is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to arrange for, Augmenting Revolving Lenders.
(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that after giving effect to any increase pursuant to this Section 2.25, the outstanding Revolving Loans (if any) are held by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their new Pro Rata Percentages. This may be accomplished at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, following consultation with the Borrower, (i) by requiring the outstanding Revolving Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of a new Revolving Borrowing, (ii) by causing Non-Increasing Revolving Lenders to assign portions of their outstanding Revolving Loans to Increasing Revolving Lenders and/or Augmenting Revolving Lenders, or (iii) by any combination of the foregoing. Any prepayment or assignment described in this paragraph (b) shall be subject to Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Commitments shall become effective under this Section 2.25 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied (treating the effectiveness of the increase in the Revolving Commitments as a “Credit Event” for such purposes) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, and (ii) if requested, the Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.02.
Increase in Commitments (a) The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to seek (x) commitments (“Additional Revolving Credit Commitments”) to increase the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or (y) commitments (“Additional Term Commitments”) to increase the aggregate principal amount of any existing Class of Term Loans or to establish one or more new Classes of Term Loans; provided that:
(i) the aggregate amount of all Additional Commitments shall not exceed the sum of (A) (x) the greater of $125,000,000 and an amount equal to 100.0% of Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters ending with the latest fiscal quarter (or fiscal year) for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 less (y) the aggregate principal amount of Junior Lien Indebtedness incurred under Section 7.02(b)(i) less (z) the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Notes incurred under Section 7.02(u)(A) (the amount in this clause (A), the “Incremental Dollar Basket”), plus (B) all voluntary prepayments of Term Loans and voluntary commitment reductions of Revolving Credit Commitments prior to or simultaneous with the Additional Commitments Effective Date (excluding voluntary prepayments of Additional Term Loans and voluntary commitment reductions of Additional Revolving Credit Commitments, to the extent such Additional Term Loans and Additional Revolving Credit Commitments were obtained pursuant to clause (C) below), plus (C) additional amounts so long as the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recently ended period of four consecutive fiscal quarters for which financial statements are internally available, as if any Additional Term Loans or Additional Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable and in either case incurred pursuant to this clause (C), available under such Additional Commitments had been outstanding on the last day of such period, and, in each case (x) with respect to any Additional Revolving Credit Commitment incurred pursuant to this clause (C), assuming a borrowing of the maximum amount of Loans available thereunder, and (y) excluding the cash proceeds of any Loans pursuant to such Additional Commitments, do not exceed 3.75:1.00 and 6.50:1.00, respectively (this clause (C), the “Incremental Ratio Exception”);
(ii) any such increase or any new Class shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; 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 preceding clause (i);
(iii) the final maturity date of any Additional Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date;
(iv) the Additional Term Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity equal to or greater than the then remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of each Class of Term Loans outstanding prior to such proposed incurrence of Additional Term Loans (the “Outstanding Term Loans”);
(v) the Applicable Rate with respect to any Additional Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders of the Additional Term Loans; provided that with respect to any Additional Term Loans incurred prior to the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date, (x) in the event that the Applicable Rate for any such Additional Term Loans is greater than the Applicable Rate for the Term B Loans by more than 50 basis points, then the Applicable Rate for the Term B Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Applicable Rate for the Additional Term Loans is not more than 50 basis points higher than the Applicable Rate for the Term B Loans; provided, further, that, in determining the Applicable Rate with respect to Additional Term Loans or the applicable Class of Outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this clause (v), (A) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront or similar fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrower to the lenders providing such Additional Term Loans or such Outstanding Term Loans in the primary syndication thereof (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity) shall be included and (B) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to any lead arranger (or its affiliates) in connection with the Additional Term Loans or Outstanding Term Loans shall be excluded, and (y) if any Eurodollar Rate “floor” or Base Rate “floor” applicable to any Additional Term Loans exceeds the Eurodollar Rate “floor” or Base Rate “floor” applicable to the Outstanding Term Loans, the Eurodollar Rate “floor” or Base Rate applicable to the Term B Loans shall be increased so that the applicable “floor” is the same;
(vi) no existing Lender shall be required to provide any Additional Commitments;
(vii) subject to clause (iv), the amortization schedule applicable to the Additional Term Commitments shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereof;
(viii) the Additional Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the existing Loans; and
(ix) the Additional Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and prepayment premiums) and mandatory prepayment terms as may be agreed between the Borrower and the lenders of the Additional Term Loans so long as such Additional Term Loans do not participate on a greater than pro rata basis in any such mandatory prepayments as compared to Term B Loans.
(b) Each such notice shall specify (x) the date (each, an “Additional Commitments Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Additional Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (y) the identity of the Persons (each of which shall be a Person that would be an Eligible Assignee (for this purpose treating a Lender of Additional Commitments as if it were an assignee)) whom the Borrower proposes would provide the Additional Commitments and the portion of the Additional Commitment to be provided by each such Person. As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any Additional Commitments, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate dated as of the Additional Commitments Effective Date signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that, before and after giving effect to the Additional Commitments (and assuming full utilization thereof), (i) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Additional Commitments Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.16(b), the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.05(a) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to subsection (a) of Section 6.01 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default exists. On each Additional Commitments Effective Date with respect to any Additional Term Commitment, each Person with an Additional Term Commitment shall make an Additional Term Loan to the Borrower in a principal amount equal to such Person’s Additional Term Commitment.
