Incremental Loans Any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments effected through the establishment of one or more new term loans or new revolving credit commitments, as applicable, made on an Incremental Facility Closing Date (other than a Loan Increase) shall be designated a separate Class of Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Term Commitments of any Class are effected (including through any Term Loan Increase), subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall make a Loan to the Borrower (an “Incremental Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Term Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Revolving Commitments of any Class are effected through the establishment of one or more new revolving credit commitments (including through any Revolving Commitment Increase), subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Revolving Lender of such Class shall make its Commitment available to the Borrower (when borrowed, an “Incremental Revolving Loan” and collectively with any Incremental Term Loan, an “Incremental Loan”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Revolving Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Revolving Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Revolving Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Revolving Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto.
Incremental Loan Request Each Incremental Loan Request from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall set forth the requested amount, the Approved Currency and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments. Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments may be provided, by any existing Lender (but each existing Lender will not have an obligation to make any Incremental Commitment, nor will the Borrower have any obligation to approach any existing lenders to provide any Incremental Commitment) or by any other bank or other financial institution (any such other bank or other financial institution being called an “Additional Lender”) (each such existing Lender or Additional Lender providing such, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Lender” or “Incremental Term Lender,” as applicable, and, collectively, the “Incremental Lenders”); provided that (i) the Administrative Agent, each Swing Line Lender and each L/C Issuer shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Revolving Commitment Increases to the extent such consent, if any, would be required under Section 10.07(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender, (ii) with respect to Incremental Term Commitments, any Affiliated Lender providing an Incremental Term Commitment shall be subject to the same restrictions set forth in Section 10.07(l) as they would otherwise be subject to with respect to any purchase by or assignment to such Affiliated Lender of Term Loans and (iii) Affiliated Lenders may not provide Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments.
Incremental Lenders Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Incremental Revolving Commitments may be provided, by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have an obligation to make any Incremental Commitment (or Incremental Loan), nor will the Borrower have any obligation to approach any existing Lenders to provide any Incremental Commitment (or Incremental Loan)) or by any Additional Lender (each such existing Lender or Additional Lender providing such Loan or Commitment, an “Incremental Term Lender” or “Incremental Revolving Lender,” as applicable, and, collectively, the “Incremental Lenders”); provided that (i) the Administrative Agent or, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Commitments only, each Issuing Bank, shall have consented (in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Additional Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Incremental Revolving Commitments to the extent such consent, if any, would be required under Section 10.07(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to such Additional Lender, (ii) with respect to Incremental Term Commitments, any Affiliated Lender providing an Incremental Term Commitment shall be subject to the same restrictions set forth in Section 10.07(h) as they would otherwise be subject to with respect to any purchase by or assignment to such Affiliated Lender of Term Loans and (iii) Affiliated Lenders may not provide Incremental Revolving Commitments.
Commitment Increase The Borrower may, by giving at least 15 Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, propose that the Aggregate Facility Amount be increased (each such proposed increase being a “Commitment Increase”), through an increase of the Commitment of one or more existing Lenders (each an “Increasing Lender”) and/or the addition of one or more Persons (who must be Eligible Assignees) as assuming Lenders (each an “Assuming Lender”), as the Borrower may determine, all effective as of a date (the “Commitment Increase Date”) that shall be specified in such notice and that shall be prior to the Commitment Termination Date; provided the following limitations shall apply:
(A) the Borrower may not propose more than two Commitment Increases during any calendar quarter,
(B) the proposed Commitment Increase in respect of the Commitment of any Increasing Lender or any Assuming Lender shall for each Commitment Increase Date be no less than $100,000,000,
(C) the Aggregate Facility Amount may not in any event at any time exceed $2,000,000,000,
(D) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the relevant Commitment Increase Date or shall result from the proposed Commitment Increase, and
(E) the representations and warranties in Article V shall be true in all material respects on and as of the Commitment Increase Date as if made on and as of such date. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of a proposed Commitment Increase promptly upon its receipt of notice from the Borrower with respect thereto. 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.
Incremental Facility (a) The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request, prior to the Maturity Date, one or more increases to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “New Commitments”), by an aggregate amount for all New Commitments not in excess of the Incremental Available Amount (subject to Section 1.07, determined as of the date of effectiveness of such New Commitments) and not less than $25,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by the Administrative Agent or that shall constitute the remaining amount of New Commitments permitted to be incurred pursuant to this Section 2.18 at such time), and integral multiples of $25,000,000 in excess of that amount. Each such notice shall specify (A) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which Borrower proposes that the New Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and which may be contingent upon the closing of an acquisition or other transaction and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an eligible assignee under Section 9.04(b), subject to approval thereof by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks in the case of a Person that is not a Lender, to the extent such approval is required in the case of an assignment to such Person pursuant to such Section 9.04(b) (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (each, a “New Lender”), to whom Borrower proposes any portion of such New Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations (it being understood that the identity of such Lenders or other Persons may be amended after the date of such notice so long as the approval requirements, if any, are satisfied); provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Commitment. Such New Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that, subject to Section 1.07 (except as set forth in the parenthetical proviso to clause (1) below), (1) on such Increased Amount Date, each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02(a) and (b) (with references therein to the “Effective Date” being deemed to refer instead to such Increased Amount Date and, in the case of Section 4.02(b), before and after giving effect to such New Commitment) shall be satisfied (provided that if the proceeds of the Loans under such New Commitments are to be used to consummate a Limited Conditionality Acquisition, (x) no Specified Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the Increased Amount Date before and after giving effect to such New Commitments (it being understood that the requirements of Section 4.02(b) shall otherwise be complied with in accordance with Section 1.07) and (y) the requirements of Section 4.02(a) shall be subject to, if agreed to by the lenders providing such New Commitments, customary “SunGard” or other customary applicable “certain funds” conditionality provisions (including the accuracy of the representations and warranties contained in the applicable acquisition agreement as are material to the interests of the lenders providing such New Commitments, but only to the extent that the Borrower or any of its Affiliates has the right to terminate its obligations under such acquisition agreement as a result of the failure of such representation or warranty to be accurate)); (2) the New Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower, each Guarantor, if any, the New Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and each New Lender shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.14; (3) Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Sections 2.12 and 2.13 in connection with the New Commitments; and (4) Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the New Lenders or the Issuing Banks in connection with any such transaction.
(b) On any Increased Amount Date on which New Commitments are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the Lenders shall assign to each of the New Lenders, and each of the New Lenders shall purchase from each of the Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Usage outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans and participation interests in Letter of Credit Usage will be held by existing Lenders and New Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Commitments to the Revolving Commitments, (ii) each New Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment and each Revolving Loan made thereunder (a “New Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan, and (iii) each New Lender shall become a Lender for all purposes hereunder.
(c) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt of the Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (i) the New Commitments and the New Lenders, and (ii) the respective interests in such Lender’s Revolving Loans and participation interests in Letter of Credit Usage, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this Section 2.18.
(d) The terms and provisions (including pricing) of the New Loans shall be identical to the existing Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (x) the New Loans will not be guaranteed by any Person other than (1) the Guarantors or (2) any Person that shall, substantially concurrently with the incurrence of such New Loans, become a Guarantor and (y) the New Loans will not be secured by any assets not constituting the Collateral, unless such assets are substantially concurrently pledged to secure the Secured Obligations on an equal and ratable basis. Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02 to the contrary, each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.18.
