Additional Lenders (a) For a period of 60 days after extension of a Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.16(a) that has resulted in a reduction of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders, the Borrower may request that one or more additional banks or other Persons (each, an "Additional Lender") become party to this Agreement as Lenders and that the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders be increased to reflect the Commitments allocated to each such Additional Lender; provided, that the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders after giving effect to such increase shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders immediately prior to such former Termination Date. Addition of an Additional Lender shall be made only with the written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and with the written consent of the Borrower (which consent may be granted or withheld in its absolute discretion). Each Additional Lender must be an Eligible Assignee and, without the consent of the Administrative Agent, the initial Commitment of each Additional Lender shall not be less than $10,000,000.

(c) If, at the time an Additional Lender is to become party to this Agreement, the continuing Lenders have any outstanding Advances, such Additional Lender shall offer to purchase from each continuing Lender, effective as of the date such Additional Lender becomes party to this Agreement, a portion of each continuing Lender's outstanding Advances, in such amounts as will have the result that, immediately after giving effect to such Additional Lender becoming party to this Agreement and to such purchases, each Lender (including the Additional Lender) shall share in the outstanding Advances in the same proportion as their respective Commitments. The Additional Lender shall offer in writing to purchase the requisite portion of each continuing Lender's outstanding Advances, at a price equal to the outstanding principal amount thereof together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase, and a continuing Lender shall not unreasonably decline to accept such offer. Each such purchase shall be made in accordance with Section 8.07 (with the related Assignment and Acceptance modified, mutatis mutandis, to reflect that such purchase is not a purchase of any portion of the Commitment of the continuing Lender). Such purchases shall not be subject to the provisions of clause (ii) of Section 8.07(a), and the Borrower shall be responsible for all amounts payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (iv) of Section 8.07(a). The Borrower shall pay to each continuing Lender on demand any amount that would be payable to such continuing Lender pursuant to Section 8.04(b) (which for this purpose shall be applied as if such assignment were a prepayment of the Advances assigned by such continuing Lender), and shall reimburse each continuing Lender on demand for all reasonable fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by it in connection with such assignment.
