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.
(b) Addition of an Additional Lender shall be effected by the Additional Lender executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, a duly completed Additional Lender Supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit G attached hereto. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmittal to such Additional Lender a Note in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto in the amount of the Commitment of such Additional Lender. Acceptance by the Administrative Agent of an Additional Lender is subject to the conditions that the Administrative Agent shall have received, with a counterpart for each Lender, (i) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the Borrower, dated the effective date of such Additional Lender Supplement, as to the accuracy, both before and after giving effect to such proposed addition, of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.01 and as to the absence, both before and after giving effect to such proposed extension, of any Event of Default or event that with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, (ii) certified copies of all corporate and governmental approvals, if any, required to be obtained by the Borrower in connection with such proposed addition, (iii) an opinion of counsel to the Borrower (who shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) as to the matters set forth in Exhibit D (appropriately modified to include, in addition to the other matters set forth therein, such Additional Lender Supplement and the new Note), and such other matters as any Lender, through the Administrative Agent, may reasonably request, and (iv) such other certificates and documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all of the foregoing to be satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent. Upon execution and delivery of the Additional Lender Supplement, acceptance by the Administrative Agent and recording in the Register, from and after the effective date specified in such Additional Lender Supplement, such Additional Lender shall be a party hereto and shall, to the extent of the Commitment specified in such Additional Lender Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder.
(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.
Reliance by Financial Institution The Financial Institution is not obligated to investigate or inquire whether the Secured Party may deliver a Secured Party Order. The Financial Institution may rely on communications (including Secured Party Orders) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and given by the proper party.
Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.
Replacement of the L/C Issuer The L/C Issuer may be replaced at any time by written agreement between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced L/C Issuer and the successor L/C Issuer. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the L/C Issuer. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(m). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor L/C Issuer shall have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “L/C Issuer” shall be deemed to include such successor or any previous L/C Issuer, or such successor and all previous L/C Issuer, as the context shall require. After the replacement of the L/C Issuer hereunder, the replaced L/C Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
Additional Loan Parties Upon (i) any Loan Party creating or acquiring any Subsidiary that is a wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary, a FSHCO or a Foreign Subsidiary) after the Closing Date, (ii) any Subsidiary that is a Restricted Subsidiary of a Loan Party ceasing to be an Immaterial Subsidiary, ceasing to be a FSHCO or ceasing to be a Foreign Subsidiary, or (iii) any Subsidiary that is an Unrestricted Subsidiary becoming a wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary, a FSHCO or a Foreign Subsidiary) pursuant to Section 6.11, such Loan Party shall, to the extent that it does not violate any Gaming Law or, if necessary, has received the approval of the applicable Gaming Authority, (A) cause each such Restricted Subsidiary (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary, a FSHCO or a Foreign Subsidiary) to promptly (but in any event within 90 days after the later of such event described in clause (i); (ii) or (iii) above or receipt of such approval (or such longer period of time as Administrative Agent may agree to in its reasonable discretion or as required to obtain any necessary Gaming Approval)), execute and deliver a Guaranty and all such other documents and certificates as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to have such Restricted Subsidiary become a Guarantor and (B) deliver to the Administrative Agent all legal opinions reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent relating to the matters described above covering matters similar to those covered in the opinions delivered on the Closing Date with respect to such Guarantor; provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.08 to the contrary, any Immaterial Subsidiary that is a guarantor of any Material Indebtedness of the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiaries shall be required to be a Guarantor until such time as its guaranty of such Material Indebtedness is released (at which time it shall be released by the Administrative Agent from the Guaranty on the request of the Borrower without further action by the Creditor Parties). To the extent approvals of any Gaming Authorities for any actions required by this Section are required by applicable Gaming Laws, the Borrower and/or applicable Loan Party shall, at their own expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly (as reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith) apply for and to pursue such approvals.
Replacement of Lender If (a) any Borrower is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 to pay any Indemnified Taxes or make any additional payment to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender, (b) any Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to convert Alternate Base Rate Advances into, Term SOFR Advances or to make Eurocurrency Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.3, (c) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (d) any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender (any Lender so affected, an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower Representative may elect, if such amounts continue to be charged or such suspension or status as a Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender is still effective, to replace such Affected Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and provided further that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is an Eligible Assignee shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Advances at par and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender pursuant to an assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit C and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 12.2 applicable to assignments, and (ii) the Borrowers and/or the assignee shall pay to such Affected Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrowers hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5, and (B) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 3.4 had the Loans of such Affected Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.
Rights of Lender The Guarantor consents and agrees that the Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Guaranteed Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lender in its sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of the Guarantor under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of the Guarantor.
Replacement of a Lender In the event any Lender (i) gives notice under Section 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable, Etc.], (ii) requests compensation under Section 5.8 [Increased Costs], or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.9 [Taxes], (iii) is a Defaulting Lender, (iv) becomes subject to the control of an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision), or (v) is a Non-Consenting Lender referred to in Section 11.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers], then in any such event the Borrower may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.8 [Successors and Assigns]), all of its interests, rights (other than existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 5.8 [Increased Costs] or 5.9 [Taxes]) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
(i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.8 [Successors and Assigns];
(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and Participation Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 5.10 [Indemnity]) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.8.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.9 [Taxes], such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and
(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
Financial Institution The Financial Institution will not be liable under this Agreement, except for (i) its own willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence or (ii) breach of its representations and warranties in this Agreement. The Financial Institution will not be liable for special, indirect or consequential losses or damages (including lost profit), even if the Financial Institution has been advised of the likelihood of the loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.
