Incremental Commitments (a) The Company may from time to time notify the Administrative Agent that certain of the Lenders designated by the Company and/or that additional lenders shall be added to this Agreement as Incremental Lenders with Commitments for the purpose of increasing the existing Commitments under the Facility (a “Commitment Increase”) by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Loan Activation Notice signed by such Lenders or such additional lenders and specifying (i) the respective Incremental Commitments of such Incremental Lenders and (ii) the applicable Commitment Increase Date; provided, that after giving effect to such Commitment Increase (including the incurrence of any Incremental Loans on the applicable Commitment Increase Date and use of proceeds thereof) (x) no Default or Event of Default shall be continuing and (y) the sum of the Total Commitments then in effect (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Incremental Commitments) shall not exceed $2 billion. (b) Each Incremental Lender that is a signatory to an Incremental Loan Activation Notice severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make revolving credit loans (each, an “Incremental Loan”) to the Company and/or the applicable Subsidiary Borrowers from time to time on or after the Commitment Increase Date specified in such Incremental Loan Activation Notice in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time up to but not exceeding the amount of the Incremental Commitment of such Incremental Lender specified in such Incremental Loan Activation Notice, subject to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Incremental Loan Activation Notice. Nothing in this Section 2.27 shall be construed to obligate any Lender to execute an Incremental Loan Activation Notice. (c) On any Commitment Increase Date, in the event any Loans under the Facility are then outstanding, (i) each relevant Incremental Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine are necessary in order to cause, after giving effect to such increased Commitments and the application of such amounts to prepay Loans under the Facility of other relevant Lenders, the Loans under the Facility to be held ratably by all Lenders with Commitments in the Facility in accordance with such Commitments after giving effect to such increase, (ii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have prepaid and reborrowed all outstanding Loans under this Agreement and (iii) the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the relevant Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.22 as a result of such prepayment.
Incremental Lenders Each notice from the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount, currency and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Increase. Incremental Increases may be provided by any existing Lender or by any other Persons (an “Incremental Lender”); provided that the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and/or each Swingline Lender, as applicable, shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Incremental Lender’s providing such Incremental Increases to the extent any such consent would be required under Section 12.9(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, to such Incremental Lender. At the time of sending such notice, the applicable Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Incremental Lender is requested to respond, which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the proposed Incremental Lenders (or such shorter period as may be approved by the Administrative Agent). Each proposed Incremental Lender may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, and shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether it agrees, to provide an Incremental Increase and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than or less than requested. Any Person not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to provide an Incremental Increase.
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.
