Termination and Reduction of Revolving Commitments (a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.
(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.08, the sum of the Aggregate Total Exposure would exceed the total Commitments.
(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be applied to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.
(d) If, after giving effect to any reduction of the Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Commitments, such Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.
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. The Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on the Additional Commitments Effective Date with respect to any Additional Revolving Credit Commitment (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments. If there is a new Borrowing of Revolving Credit Commitments on such Additional Commitments Effective Date, the Revolving Credit Lenders after giving effect to such Additional Revolving Credit Commitments shall make such Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.01(b).
(c) Any other terms of and documentation entered into in respect of any Additional Term Commitments shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Additional Term Commitments (including with respect to voluntary and mandatory prepayments), other than as contemplated by Section 2.16(a)(iii), (iv), (v), (vii), (viii) or (ix) above; provided that to the extent such other terms and documentation in respect of any Additional Term Loans are not consistent with those of the Term B Loans (except to the extent permitted by Section 2.16(a)(iii), (iv), (v), (vii), (viii) or (ix) above) they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(d) The Additional Commitments shall be documented by an Additional Credit Extension Amendment executed by the Persons providing the Additional Commitments (and the other Persons specified in the definition of Additional Credit Extension Amendment but no other existing Lender), and the Additional Credit Extension Amendment may provide for such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.16.
(e) This Section 2.16 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or Section 11.01 to the contrary.

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section, at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.
(d) At any time prior to the expiration of the Revolving Availability Period, and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred which is continuing, the Borrower may elect to increase the aggregate of the Revolving Commitments to an amount not exceeding the Maximum Accordion Amount minus any reductions in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section2.07(b) hereof, provided that (i) no Lender shall be required to increase its Revolving Commitment unless it shall have expressly agreed to such increase in writing (but otherwise, no notice to or consent by any Lender shall be required, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 9.02 hereof), (ii) the addition of new Lenders shall be subject to the terms and provisions of Section 9.04 hereof as if such new Lenders were acquiring an interest in the Loans by assignment from an existing Lenders (to the extent applicable, i.e. required approvals, minimum amounts and the like), (iii) the Borrower shall execute and deliver such additional or replacement Notes and such other documentation (including evidence of proper authorization) as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, any new Lender or any Lender which is increasing its Revolving Commitment, (iv) no Lender shall have any right to decrease its Revolving Commitment as a result of such increase of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments, (v) the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to arrange, find or locate any Lender or new bank or financial institution to participate in any unsubscribed portion of such increase in the aggregate committed amount of the Revolving Commitments, and (vi) such option to increase the Revolving Commitments may only be exercised once. The Borrower shall be required to pay (or to reimburse each applicable Lender for) any breakage costs incurred by any Lender in connection with the need to reallocate existing Loans among the Lenders following any increase in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this provision. Except as may otherwise be agreed by the Borrower and any applicable Lender, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any upfront or other fees or expenses to any existing Lenders, new Lenders or the Administrative Agent with respect to any such increase in Revolving Commitments.
Termination or Reduction of Aggregate Revolving Commitments The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $500,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Revolving Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and (iv) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be applied to the Revolving Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable Percentage. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower may rescind any notice of termination of Aggregate Revolving Commitments under this Section 2.06 if such termination would have resulted from the refinancing of all or a portion of the Loans, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed.
