Increase of the Commitments (a) The Borrower may, from time to time, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, request by notice to the Administrative Agent, to increase the Commitments in minimum increments of $10,000,000, up to a maximum increase aggregate amount (for all such increases) of $500,000,000, by designating one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Designated Lender”) that agree to accept all or a portion of such additional Commitments (the “Proposed Increased Commitment”), provided, that (i) if a Designated Lender is not a Lender, such Designated Lender shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Bank and each LC Issuing Bank, and such Designated Lender’s Proposed Increased Commitment shall be at least $5,000,000; and (ii) if Designated Lender is a Lender, such Designated Lender shall be reasonably acceptable to the Swingline Bank and each LC Issuing Bank, and allocations of the Proposed Increased Commitment among Designated Lenders that are Lenders shall be based on the ratio of each existing Lender’s Proposed Increased Commitment, if any, to the aggregate of all Proposed Increased Commitments. The Borrower may elect to remove or replace any such designated Eligible Assignee at any time prior to the effective date of such increase, provided that any newly designated Eligible Assignee is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Bank and each LC Issuing Bank. (b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Designated Lenders of the Proposed Increased Commitment. 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 its additional Commitments. Any Designated Lender not responding on or prior to the date specified by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have consented to accept its additional 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 Borrower shall deliver (i) a certificate signed by a duly authorized officer of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, dated as of the effective date of such additional Commitments, stating that all conditions precedent to an Extension of Credit set forth in Section 3.02 are true and correct on and as of such effective date and (ii) a favorable opinion of counsel for the Borrower (which may be an attorney of American Electric Power Service Corporation), as to such matters as any Lender through the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. (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 Borrowings (if any) in full, and shall simultaneously make new Borrowings hereunder in an amount equal to such prepayment, so that, after giving effect thereto, the 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 Advances on such date pursuant to clause (c)(ii) above, all calculations and payments of fees and of interest on the Advances shall take into account the actual Commitment of each Lender and the principal amount outstanding of each Advance made by such Lender during the relevant period of time.
Termination Reduction or Increase of the Commitments (a) The Company shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days' notice to the Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and provided further that (x) the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding, and (y) once terminated, a portion of a Commitment shall not be reinstated except pursuant to Section 2.05(c). (b) If any Lender shall make a demand under Section 2.11 or 2.14 or if the obligation of any Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall have been suspended pursuant to Section 2.12, the Company shall have the right, upon at least ten Business Days' notice, to terminate in full the Commitment of such Lender or to demand that such Lender assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.
Termination of Commitments Declare the Commitments terminated whereupon the Commitments shall be immediately terminated.
