PIK Interest Sample Clauses
A PIK (Payment-in-Kind) Interest clause allows interest on a loan or debt instrument to be paid in forms other than cash, typically by issuing additional securities or increasing the principal amount owed. In practice, this means that instead of making regular cash interest payments, the borrower can defer these payments by accruing them to the outstanding balance or by providing more debt instruments to the lender. This clause is commonly used in situations where the borrower may have limited cash flow in the short term but expects to have greater resources in the future. Its core function is to provide financial flexibility to the borrower while still compensating the lender, thereby facilitating deals where immediate cash payments are not feasible.

PIK Interest. In accordance with Section 2.09(e), the principal amount of the Loan shall also be increased on each Interest Payment Date by the PIK Interest Amount with respect to such Interest Payment Date unless the Borrower pays such PIK Interest Amount in cash on such Interest Payment Date pursuant to an election to do so in accordance with Section 2.09(e).
PIK Interest. The principal amount outstanding under this Note shall bear interest at a rate of two percent (2%) per annum (the “PIK Interest”) commencing on and including the Issue Date until the Maturity Date. The PIK Interest shall be payable annually in arrears on each PIK Interest Payment Date by issuing to the Holder new notes of the same type in certificated form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of the PIK Interest for the applicable interest period (such new notes, the “PIK Notes”). This Note and any PIK Notes shall be treated as a single class for all purposes hereunder. The PIK Notes shall be identical to this Note, except that interest will begin to accrue from the date they are issued rather than the Issue Date. Accrued interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and, for partial months, on the basis of actual days elapsed over a 30-day month.
PIK Interest. For the avoidance of doubt, once paid, PIK Interest and PIK Fees shall be treated as principal for all purposes hereunder and shall accrue interest thereon in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof.

PIK Interest. With respect to the Loans, during the period from the Closing Date until the Interest Payment Date occurring closest to (but not after) the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (the “PIK Period”), so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing on such date, by delivery of written notice to the Agent not less than five (5) Business Days prior to any Interest Payment Date, the Borrower may elect to pay all of the interest accrued on the Loans for the Interest Period ending on such Interest Payment Date “in kind” (“PIK Interest”); provided that during the PIK Period, the Applicable Margin shall be increased by one percent (1.00%) per annum with respect to any such interest paid as PIK Interest.

Interest must be paid in cash for any period for which a Default or Event of Default exists.

PIK Interest shall be allocated ratably to the principal amounts of the Loans of each Lender in accordance with the Ratable Share of the Loans of such Lender. Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes hereof, references to “principal amount” of Loans refers to the original face amount of the Loans plus any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Loans as a result of payments of PIK Interest. The entire unpaid balance of all PIK Interest shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Maturity Date. Unless the Borrower delivers a PIK Interest Election Notice to the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to an Interest Payment Date, the Borrower will, subject to the immediately succeeding clause (B) below, be deemed to have elected for each Interest Period, to make interest payments in cash as set forth in Section 2.06(a)(i).
(B) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the addition of PIK Interest to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans shall not result in a reduction of the aggregate principal amount of unused Commitments hereunder.
