Requests for Commitment Increase Sample Clauses

The "Requests for Commitment Increase" clause defines the process by which a borrower can formally request an increase in the amount of credit or loan commitments from the lender or lending group. Typically, this clause outlines the conditions under which such requests can be made, such as minimum and maximum increase amounts, required notice periods, and any necessary approvals from existing lenders. For example, it may specify that the borrower must provide written notice and that any increase is subject to the consent of both the lender and, in some cases, other stakeholders. The core function of this clause is to provide a clear, structured mechanism for expanding available credit, thereby ensuring transparency and predictability for both borrowers and lenders when additional funding is needed.

Each Lender will consider in good faith any such proposed Commitment Increase, provided that it shall be in each Lender’s sole discretion whether to agree to increase its Commitment hereunder in connection therewith. No later than 10 Business Days after its receipt of the Borrower’s notice proposing a Commitment Increase, each Lender that is willing to increase its Commitment hereunder shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a notice in which such Lender shall set forth the maximum increase in its Commitment to which such Lender is willing to agree (any Lender not responding by such time to be deemed not to have agreed to such increase in its Commitment), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to the Borrower a copy of such Increasing Lender’s notice. The Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Borrower in discussions with the Lenders and Eligible Assignees with a view to arranging any proposed Commitment Increase through the increase of the Commitments of one or more of the Lenders and/or the addition of one or more Eligible Assignees as Assuming Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to secure any such proposed Commitment Increase (provided that any such addition of an Eligible Assignee as an Assuming Lender shall be subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, that any allocations of any increase of Commitments hereunder (including any allocation as between Increasing Lenders and Assuming Lenders) shall be determined by the Borrower in its sole discretion.

In the event that any Lender (each, a “Declining Lender”) shall fail to accept in writing a Commitment Increase Offer within 10 Business Days after receiving notice thereof, all or any portion of the proposed increase in the Commitments offered to the Declining Lenders (the aggregate of such offered amounts, the “Declined Amount”) may instead be allocated to any one or more additional banks, financial institutions or other entities pursuant to paragraph (b) below and/or to any one or more existing Lenders pursuant to paragraph (c)(ii) below.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Designated Lenders of the Borrower’s request pursuant to subsection (a) above. Each Designated Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent by the date specified by the Administrative Agent (which date shall be a Business Day) that either (A) such Designated Lender declines to accept its additional Commitments or (B) such Designated Lender consents to accept the offered Commitments. Any Designated Lender not responding on or prior to the date specified by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have declined to accept the offered Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall, after receiving the notifications from all of the Designated Lenders or following the date specified in the notice to such Designated Lenders, whichever is earlier, notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the results thereof and the effective date of any additional Commitments. The effectiveness of such additional Commitments shall be subject to the condition precedent that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent (i) the resolutions of the Borrower authorizing such additional Commitments and all Governmental Approvals (if any) required in connection with such additional Commitments, certified as being in effect as of the effective date of such additional Commitments, (ii) a favorable opinion of counsel for the Borrower as to such matters as any Lender through the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (iii) a certificate signed by a duly authorized officer of the Borrower, dated as of the effective date of such additional Commitments, stating that all conditions precedent to an Extension of Credit have been satisfied on and as of such effective date. (c) Promptly following the effective date of any Commitment increase pursuant to this Section 2.07, (i) the Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule I to this Agreement (which shall thereafter be incorporated into this Agreement) to reflect any changes in Lenders, the Commitments and each Lender’s Commitment Percentage as of such effective date and (ii) the Borrower shall prepay the outstanding Revolving Borrowings (if any) in full, and shall simultaneously make new Revolving Borrowings hereunder in an amount equal to such prepayment, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Borrowings are held ratably by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments (after giving effect to such Commitment increase). Prepayments made under this clause (c) shall not be subject to the notice requirements of Section 2.14. (d) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, from and after the date of any Commitment increase and the making of any Loans on such date pursuant to clause (c)(ii) above, all calculations and payments of fees and of interest on the Loans shall take into account the actual Commitment of each Lender and the principal amount outstanding of each Loan made by such Lender during the relevant period of time.
