Calculation of Borrowing Base Clause Samples
The Calculation of Borrowing Base clause defines the method and criteria used to determine the maximum amount a borrower can draw under a credit facility. Typically, this clause outlines the specific assets—such as accounts receivable or inventory—that are eligible to be included in the borrowing base, and details any applicable advance rates, eligibility requirements, or deductions. By establishing a clear and consistent formula for calculating available credit, this clause ensures both lender and borrower understand the limits of borrowing and helps manage the lender’s risk exposure.
