Increase of Commitment Increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender hereunder without the consent of such Lender;
Reduction of Commitment On the last Trading Day of each Pricing Period, the Investor’s Total Commitment under this Agreement automatically (and without the need for any amendment to this Agreement) shall be reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the total amount of the Fixed Request Amount and the Optional Amount Dollar Amount, if any, for such Pricing Period paid to the Company at the Settlement Date.
Extension of Commitments The Commitments may be extended in the manner and amount set forth in this subsection (b), for a period of 364 days measured from the Termination Date then in effect. If the Company wishes to request an extension of each Bank's Commitment, it shall give notice to that effect to the Agent not less than 45 days and not more than 60 days prior to the Termination Date then in effect, whereupon the Agent shall promptly notify each of the Banks of such request. Each Bank will use its best efforts to respond to such request, whether affirmatively or negatively, as it may elect in its discretion, within 30 days of such notice to the Agent. If any Bank shall not have responded affirmatively within such 30-day period, such Bank shall be deemed to have rejected the Company's proposal to extend its Commitment, and only the Commitments of those Banks which have responded affirmatively shall be extended, subject to receipt by the Agent of counterparts of an Extension Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit H hereto duly completed and signed by the Borrower, the Company, the Agent and all of the Banks which have responded affirmatively. The Agent shall provide to the Company, no later than 10 days prior to the Termination Date then in effect, a list of the Banks which have responded affirmatively. The Extension Agreement shall be executed and delivered no later than five days prior to the Termination Date then in effect, and no extension of the Commitments pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be legally binding on any party hereto unless and until such Extension Agreement is so executed and delivered. The Company and the Borrower may decline to execute and deliver such Extension Agreement if any Bank has rejected the Company's proposal to extend its Commitment or has failed to execute and deliver such Extension Agreement, and will promptly notify the Agent and the Banks if it so declines.
Termination of Commitment On the service of a notice under paragraph (a) of Clause 18.2, the Commitment and all other obligations of the Lender to the Borrower under this Agreement shall terminate.
Increase of Commitments (a) The Company and any one or more Banks (including New Banks) may, at any time when no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, agree that such Banks shall make, obtain or increase the amount of their Commitments by executing and delivering to the Agent an Increased Commitment Notice specifying (i) the amount of such increase and (ii) the applicable Increased Commitment Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) without the consent of the Required Banks, the aggregate amount of increased Commitments obtained after the Closing Date pursuant to this paragraph, together with any increase of commitments under the 5-Year Revolving Facility (or any facility that replaces or refinances the 5-Year Revolving Facility), shall not exceed $750,000,000 and (ii) without the consent of the Agent, each increase effected pursuant to this paragraph shall be in a minimum amount of at least $10,000,000. No Bank shall have any obligation to participate in any increase described in this paragraph unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.
(b) Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which, with the consent of the Company and the Agent (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), elects to become a “Bank” under this Agreement in connection with any transaction described in subsection 2.21(a) shall execute a New Bank supplement, substantially in the form of Exhibit J-1, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other entity (a “New Bank”) shall become a Bank for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.
(c) Initial Loans made under any such increased Commitments shall be made pursuant to funding procedures then agreed to by the Company and the Agent (including as to the initial interest applicable to such Loans), and payments of principal, interest and fees under this Agreement shall be made by the Company to give effect to such procedures and the timing of such increased Commitments. Payments to the Banks in respect of the Loans will be made to give effect to the allocations or reallocations described in this subsection.
Increase of Commitments; Additional Lenders (a) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, from time to time after the Restatement Effective Date, the Borrowers may, upon at least ten days’ written notice (or such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion) to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to each Lender), propose to increase the Aggregate Revolving Commitments (an “Incremental Revolving Commitment” or an “Incremental Facility”); provided that the aggregate amount of all Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not exceed $50,000,000 in the aggregate over the term of this Agreement. No Lender shall have any obligation to extend any Incremental Facility.
(b) The Borrowers may designate a bank or other financial institution (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) to extend such Incremental Facility (each, an “Additional Lender”), which at the time agrees to extend such Incremental Facility; provided however, that any new bank or financial institution must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(c) In the case of each Incremental Revolving Commitment:
(i) such Incremental Revolving Commitment shall have the same terms as the existing Revolving Commitments (other than any initial upfront fees paid to the Additional Lenders extending such Incremental Revolving Commitment); and
(ii) the outstanding Revolving Loans and the Pro Rata Share of L/C Obligations will be reallocated by the Administrative Agent on the applicable increase effective date among the Revolving Lenders (including the Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitment) in accordance with their revised Pro Rata Shares (and the Revolving Lenders (including the Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitment) agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect such reallocation and the Borrowers shall pay any and all costs required pursuant to Section 2.18 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation were a repayment).
(d) An Incremental Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of:
(i) a supplement or joinder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent executed by the Borrowers and by each Additional Lender setting forth the Incremental Revolving Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof,
(ii) evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Borrowers with respect to the Incremental Facility, and
(iii) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrowers to the effect that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2(a) and (b) will be satisfied before and after giving effect to the incurrence of the Incremental Facility and (B) after giving effect to such increase and the payment of any related fees, the Borrowers would be in compliance on a pro forma basis with the covenants set forth in Section 8.4 (after giving effect to any Borrowings to be made on the date that the Incremental Facility becomes effective, and deeming any Incremental Revolving Commitment to be fully drawn for purposes of calculating such compliance).
(e) Upon the acceptance of any such agreement by the Administrative Agent, (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount shall automatically be increased by the amount of the Incremental Revolving Commitments added through such agreement and (ii) Schedule I shall automatically be deemed amended to reflect the Commitments of all Lenders after giving effect to the addition of such Commitments.
(f) Each supplement or joinder agreement referred to in clause (d)(i) above may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provision of this Section 2.22, and for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.22 shall supersede any provisions of Sections 2.20 or 11.2 to the contrary.
Termination of Commitment to Lend Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents, Lender’s obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the Commitment Amount to Borrower hereunder shall terminate on the earlier of (i) at Lender’s sole election, the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder, and (ii) the applicable Commitment Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender’s obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the Commitment Amount to Borrower shall terminate if, in Lender’s sole judgment, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Borrower, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the business plan of Borrower presented to Lender on or before the date of this Agreement.
Acceptance of Competitive Bids Not later than 11:30 a.m. (i) on the requested date of any Bid Borrowing that is to consist of Absolute Rate Loans, and (ii) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Bid Borrowing that is to consist of Eurodollar Margin Bid Loans, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of its acceptance or rejection of the offers notified to it pursuant to Section 2.03(d). The Borrower shall be under no obligation to accept any Competitive Bid and may choose to reject all Competitive Bids. In the case of acceptance, such notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Bids for each Interest Period that is accepted. The Borrower may accept any Competitive Bid in whole or in part; provided that:
(i) the aggregate principal amount of each Bid Borrowing may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the related Bid Request;
(ii) the principal amount of each Bid Loan must be $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;
(iii) the acceptance of offers may be made only on the basis of ascending Absolute Rates or Eurodollar Bid Margins within each Interest Period; and
(iv) the Borrower may not accept any offer that is described in Section 2.03(c)(iii) or that otherwise fails to comply with the requirements hereof.
Reduction of Commitments The Parent shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (or such later time as may be reasonable acceptable to the Administrative Agent), to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portion of the Revolving Commitments; provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section shall be permanent, with no obligation of the Revolving Lenders to reinstate such Revolving Commitments, and the Commitment Fees shall thereafter be computed on the basis of the Revolving Commitments, as so reduced. To the extent that a Revolving Commitment reduction would result in the Revolving Outstanding Amount exceeding the aggregate Revolving Commitments, the Borrowers shall reduce the Revolving Outstanding Amount such that after giving effect to such reduction such excess has been eliminated. Such reductions shall be made to the extent necessary by first prepaying the Revolving Advances outstanding at such time, and second depositing in the Cash Collateral Account an amount of cash equal to 100% of the remaining excess to be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral and applied to satisfy drawings under Letters of Credit as they occur. If after giving effect to any reduction of the Revolving Commitments under this Section, either the Aggregate Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swingline Sublimit exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments as so reduced, the Aggregate Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Swingline Sublimit or both, as the case may be, shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.
