Extended Term Loans (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, subject to the terms of this Section 2.14, Lead Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of any Tranche of Term Loans (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche”), be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or any portion of such Existing Term Loan Tranche (any such Term Loans which have been so converted, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.14. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, Lead Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under the relevant Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and (y) have the same terms as the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans are to be converted, except that: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) the Effective Yield with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the Effective Yield for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the applicable Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); (iv) Extended Term Loans may have mandatory prepayment terms which provide for the application of proceeds from mandatory prepayment events to be made first to prepay the Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans have been converted before applying any such proceeds to prepay such Extended Term Loans; (v) Extended Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and terms which allow Term Loans under the relevant Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans have been converted to be optionally prepaid prior to the prepayment of such Extended Term Loans) as may be agreed by Lead Borrower and the Lenders thereof and (vi) such Extended Term Loans may have other terms (other than those described in the preceding clause (i) through (v)) that differ from those of the Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, taken as a whole, that are not materially more favorable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans than the provisions applicable to the Existing Term Loan Tranche or as are otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any Extended Term Loans converted pursuant to any Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, an “Extension Series”) of Extended Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that, subject to the requirements set forth above, any Extended Term Loans converted from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Tranche of Term Loans.
Initial Term Loan The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Notice of Borrowing prior to 11:00 a.m. on the Closing Date requesting that the Term Loan Lenders make the Initial Term Loan as a Base Rate Loan on such date (provided that the Borrower may request, no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, that the Lenders make the Initial Term Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan if the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent indemnifying the Lenders in the manner set forth in Section 5.9 of this Agreement). Upon receipt of such Notice of Borrowing from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender thereof. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Closing Date, each Term Loan Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds, the amount of such Initial Term Loan to be made by such Term Loan Lender on the Closing Date. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of the Initial Term Loan in immediately available funds by wire transfer to such Person or Persons as may be designated by the Borrower in writing.
Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Term Lender or Extending Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, providing an Extended Term Loan or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Sections 2.16(a) or (b) above, respectively (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date other than changes to such legal opinion resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in Section 2.07 with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Term Loans thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Term Loans required pursuant to Section 2.07), (iii) modify the prepayments set forth in Section 2.05 to reflect the existence of the Extended Term Loans and the application of prepayments with respect thereto, (iv) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of the second paragraph of Section 10.01 (without the consent of the Required Lenders called for therein) and (v) effect such other 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, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment.
Initial Term Loans Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender holding an Initial Term Loan Commitment severally agrees to make, in Dollars, in a single draw on the Closing Date, one or more term loans (each, an “Initial Term Loan”) to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule A under the heading “Initial Term Loan Commitment”, as such amount may be adjusted or reduced pursuant to the terms hereof, which Initial Term Loans:
Incremental Term Loan The Parent Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal amount of the Incremental Term Loan in the installments on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the Incremental Term Loan Lender Joinder Agreement (as such installments may hereafter be adjusted as a result of prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.05), unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 9.02.
Additional Term Loans Subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions expressly set forth in Section 4 of the Eleventh Amendment, each 2014-1 Additional Term Lender agrees to make a loan in Dollars (the “2014-1 Additional Term Loans”) to the Borrower on the Eleventh Amendment Effective Date in the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s 2014-1 Additional Term Commitment. No amount of a 2014-1 Additional Term Loan which is repaid or prepaid by the Borrower may be reborrowed hereunder. The 2014-1 Additional Term Loans shall be denominated in Dollars, shall be maintained as and/or converted into Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans or a combination thereof, provided, that all 2014-1 Additional Term Loans made by the 2014-1 Additional Term Lenders pursuant to the same Borrowing shall, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, consist entirely of 2014-1 Additional Term Loans of the same Type. The proceeds of the 2014-1 Additional Term Loans made on the Eleventh Amendment Effective Date shall be placed into escrow with the Eleventh Amendment Escrow Agent on the terms set forth in the Eleventh Amendment Escrow Agreement. Subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in (x) Section 5.5 or (y) Section 5.2 and Section 5.6, as applicable, and the additional conditions expressly set forth in the Eleventh Amendment Escrow Agreement, the 2014-1 Additional Term Loans shall be released from escrow on the Eleventh Amendment Release Date. If the 2014-1 Additional Term Loans Termination Date occurs, the proceeds of the 2014-1 Additional Term Loans shall be released from escrow on the conditions set forth in the Eleventh Amendment Escrow Agreement and refunded and repaid in full (together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon) to the 2014-1 Additional Term Lenders on the 2014-1 Additional Term Loan Maturity Date in accordance with the Eleventh Amendment Escrow Agreement.
Incremental Term Loans The Borrower shall repay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of each Incremental Term Loan (if any) as determined pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 5.13.
Tranche B Term Loans Each Lender that has a Tranche B Term Loan Commitment severally agrees to lend to Borrower on the Closing Date an amount not exceeding its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments to be used for the purposes identified in subsection 2.5A. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing no later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at least one Business Day prior to the Closing Date, requesting a borrowing of the Tranche B Term Loans. The Notice of Borrowing shall specify (i) the proposed Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day), and (ii) that such Loans shall be Base Rate Loans. The aggregate amount of the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments is $45,000,000; PROVIDED that the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments of Lenders shall be adjusted to (1) give effect to any assignments of the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments pursuant to subsection 10.1B and (2) any increase in Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iv). Each Lender's Tranche B Term Loan Commitment shall expire immediately and without further action on March 31, 2002 if the Tranche B Term Loans have not been made on or before that date. Subject to subsection 2.1A(iv), Borrower may make only one borrowing under the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments. Amounts 35 borrowed under this subsection 2.1A(ii) and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
New Term Loans (i) Borrower may up to three times following the Closing Date, by written notice to Administrative Agent elect to request the establishment of additional Term Loan Commitments (the “New Term Loan Commitments”), by an amount not in excess of $200,000,000 in the aggregate, pursuant to this Section 2.1(c), and not less than $25,000,000 individually. Each such notice shall specify (a) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which Borrower proposes that the New Term Loan Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than one Business Day after the date on which such notice is delivered to Administrative Agent and (b) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a “New Term Loan Lender”) to whom Borrower proposes any portion of such New Term Loan Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that, any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Term Loan Commitment. Such New Term Loan Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date without further written consent or authorization from Lenders or the Administrative Agent; provided that, (a) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Term Loan Commitments; (b) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of New Term Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 shall be satisfied; (c) Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be in pro forma compliance with each of the covenants set forth in Sections 5 and 6 after giving effect to such New Term Loan Commitments and New Term Loans; (d) the New Term Loan Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements (each, a “Joinder Agreement”) (which shall set forth, for such New Term Loan Commitments and the New Term Loans made pursuant thereto, the Applicable Margin and scheduled amortization thereof and the final maturity thereof) executed and delivered by Borrower, Administrative Agent and each New Term Loan Lender; and (e) Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Any New Term Loans funded pursuant to any one Joinder Agreement shall be designated a separate series (each a “Series”) of New Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon and after the effectiveness of New Term Loan Commitments, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions and other applicable terms and conditions in this Agreement and the Joinder Agreement, (a) each New Term Loan Lender of such Series shall make a New Term Loan to Borrower in an amount equal to its pro rata portion of the New Term Loan Commitment being funded, and (b) each New Term Loan Lender of any Series shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the New Term Loan Commitment of such Series and the New Term Loans of such Series made pursuant thereto. Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders promptly upon receipt of Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and the amount of New Term Loan Commitments of such Series. Each New Term Loan Commitment with respect to any Series shall terminate immediately and without further action upon funding of such New Term Loan. The terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or permitted under this Section 2.1(c)(i) and set forth in the applicable Joinder Agreement, identical to Term Loans. In any event (a) the applicable maturity date of each Series of New Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Final Maturity Date, (b) the Weighted-Average Life to Maturity of all New Term Loans of any Series shall be no shorter than the Weighted-Average Life to Maturity of the Terms Loans outstanding on the Closing Date under this Agreement and (c) with respect to any New Term Loans created hereunder, if the initial yield on such New Term Loans (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be equal to the sum of (x) the margin applicable to such New Term Loans above the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate and (y) if such New Term Loans are initially made at a discount or the Lenders making the same receive a fee directly or indirectly from or on behalf of the Borrower for doing so (excluding customary arranger or commitment fees paid to the Arrangers or their affiliates), and such discount and fees are in excess of 0.50% (the amount of such discount or upfront fees, in excess of 0.50% expressed as a percentage of such New Term Loans, being referred to herein as “Upfront Fees”), the amount of such Upfront Fees divided by the lesser of (A) the average life to maturity of such New Term Loans and (B) four) exceeds the Applicable Margin for any Term Loans that are Eurodollar Loans by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Margin (without respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans) then in effect for such Term Loans shall automatically be increased by the Yield Differential, effective upon the making of the New Term Loans; provided that, if the lowest permissible rate applicable to such New Term Loans is higher than the lowest permissible rate applicable to other Term Loans (as a result of a “floor” or similar feature), then the difference between such lowest permissible rate and zero shall be used in calculating the Yield Differential for purposes of this clause (c). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower, Guarantors and Administrative Agent may execute such amendments and/or amendments and restatements to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or advisable to effectuate the provisions of this subsection 2.1(c)(i), and each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect any such amendments and/or amendments and restatements to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or advisable to effectuate the provisions of this subsection 2.1(c)(i).
