Increase of Commitments; Additional Lenders (a) From time to time after the Closing Date and in accordance with this Section, the Borrower and one or more Increasing Lenders or Additional Lenders (each as defined below) may enter into an agreement to increase the aggregate Revolving Commitments hereunder (each such increase, an “Incremental Commitment”) so long as the following conditions are satisfied:
Termination, Reduction and Increase of Commitments (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.
Increase of Commitment Increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender hereunder without the consent of such Lender;
Termination Reduction or Increase of the Commitments (a) The Company shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days' notice to the Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and provided further that (x) the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding, and (y) once terminated, a portion of a Commitment shall not be reinstated except pursuant to Section 2.05(c).
Increase in Commitment At any time during the Commitment Increase Period, Borrower may request that Agent increase the Total Commitment Amount from the Closing Commitment Amount up to an amount that shall not exceed the Maximum Commitment Amount. Each such increase shall be in an amount of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), increased by increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), and may be made by either (i) proportionally increasing, for one or more Lenders, with their prior written consent, their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, or (ii) including one or more Additional Lenders, each with a new Revolving Credit Commitment, as a party to this Agreement (collectively, the “Additional Commitment”). During the Commitment Increase Period, the Lenders agree that Agent, in its sole discretion, may permit one or more Additional Commitments upon satisfaction of the following requirements: (A) each Additional Lender, if any, shall be an Eligible Transferee and shall execute an Additional Lender Assumption Agreement, (B) Agent shall provide to Borrower and each Lender a revised Schedule 1 to this Agreement, including revised Commitment Percentages for each of the Lenders, if appropriate, at least three Business Days prior to the effectiveness of such Additional Commitments (each an “Additional Lender Assumption Effective Date”), and (C) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent and the Lenders such replacement or additional Revolving Credit Notes as shall be required by Agent (and requested by the Lenders). The Lenders hereby authorize Agent to execute each Additional Lender Assumption Agreement on behalf of the Lenders. On each Additional Lender Assumption Effective Date, the Lenders shall make adjustments among themselves with respect to the Revolving Loans then outstanding and amounts of principal, interest, facility fees, utilization fees and other amounts paid or payable with respect thereto as shall be necessary, in the opinion of Agent, in order to reallocate among such Lenders such outstanding amounts, based on the revised Commitment Percentages and to otherwise carry out fully the intent and terms of this Section 2.9(b). Borrower shall not request any increase in the Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.9(b) if a Default or an Event of Default shall then exist, or immediately after giving effect to any such increase would exist.
Increase in Commitments At any time following the Agreement Date and prior to the Termination Date the aggregate amount of the Commitments may, at the option of the Borrower, be increased by an amount not in excess of $200,000,000, either by new Banks establishing such additional Commitments or by one or more then-existing Banks increasing their Commitments (each such increase by either means, a "Commitment Increase," and each such new Bank or Bank increasing its Commitment, an "Additional Commitment Bank"); provided that (a) each Additional Commitment Bank shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, (b) no Default shall exist immediately prior to or after the effective date of such Commitment Increase, (c) each such Commitment Increase shall be in an amount not less than $10,000,000 and multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof, (d) no such Commitment Increase shall become effective unless and until the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Additional Commitment Banks shall have executed and delivered an agreement substantially in the form of Schedule 1.09 (a "Commitment Increase Supplement"), and (d) the increase in the Total Commitments shall not exceed $200,000,000. On the effective date of such Commitment Increase, each Additional Commitment Bank shall purchase, for assignment, from each other existing Bank the portion of such other Bank's RC Loans and Letter of Credit Participations outstanding at such time such that, after giving effect to such assignments, the respective aggregate amount of RC Loans and Letter of Credit Participations of each Bank shall be equal to such Bank's pro rata share (based on the total Commitments, as increased pursuant hereto) of the aggregate RC Loans and Letter of Credit Participations outstanding. The purchase price for the RC Loans and Letter of Credit Participations so assigned shall be the principal amount of the RC Loans and unreimbursed Drawings so assigned plus the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the date of assignment. Upon payment of such purchase price, each other Bank shall be automatically deemed to have sold and made such an assignment to such Additional Commitment Bank and shall, to the extent of the interest assigned, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, and such Additional Commitment Bank shall be automatically deemed to have purchased and assumed such an assignment from each other Bank and, if not already a Bank hereunder, shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement.
Optional Increase in Commitments The Borrower may, from time to time, by means of a letter delivered to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit C, request that the Aggregate Commitment Amount be increased by an aggregate amount (for all such increases) not exceeding $250,000,000 by (a) increasing the Commitment Amount of one or more Lenders that have agreed to such increase (in their sole discretion) and/or (b) adding one or more commercial banks or other Persons as a party hereto (each an “Additional Lender”) with a Commitment Amount in an amount agreed to by any such Additional Lender; provided that (i) any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount of $25,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000; (ii) no Additional Lender shall be added as a party hereto without the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuers (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld) or if an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default exists; (iii) subject to Section 8.07(h), no such increase shall be effective without the written consent of the LC Issuers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and (iv) the Borrower may not request an increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount unless the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent (with a copy for each Lender) a certificate (A) stating that any applicable governmental authority has approved such increase, (B) attaching evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of each such approval and (C) stating that the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 are correct on and as of the date of such certificate as though made on and as of such date and that no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default exists on such date. Any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be effective three Business Days after the date on which the Administrative Agent has received and accepted the applicable increase letter in the form of Annex 1 to Exhibit C (in the case of an increase in the Commitment Amount of an existing Lender) or assumption letter in the form of Annex 2 to Exhibit C (in the case of the addition of a commercial bank or other Person as a new Lender). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 and of the Commitment Amount and Pro Rata Share of each Lender after giving effect thereto. The Borrower shall prepay any Advances outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 8.04(b)) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Advances ratable among the Lenders in accordance with any revised Pro Rata Shares arising from any non-ratable increase in the Commitment Amounts under this Section 2.18; provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each increasing Lender and Additional Lender, as applicable, may make arrangements satisfactory to such parties to cause an increasing Lender or an Additional Lender to temporarily hold risk participations in the outstanding Advances of the other Lenders (rather than fund its Pro Rata Share of all outstanding Advances concurrently with the applicable increase) with a view toward minimizing breakage costs and transfers of funds in connection with any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount. To the extent that any increase pursuant to this Section 2.18 is not expressly authorized pursuant to resolutions or consents delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(i), the Borrower shall, prior to the effectiveness of such increase, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by an authorized officer of the Borrower certifying and attaching the resolutions or consents that have been adopted to approve or consent to such increase.
Increase of Commitments (a) If no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and no event, change or condition has occurred that has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, since the Effective Date, the Borrowers may at any time from time to time prior to the Maturity Date request one or more increases of the US Revolving Commitments, Canadian Revolving Commitments or the UK Revolving Commitments by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of such proposed increase (each such notice, a “Commitment Increase Notice”); provided, however, that, (i) none of the US Revolving Commitment, the Canadian Revolving Commitment or the UK Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender may be increased without such Revolving Lender’s consent, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Commitments as so increased shall not exceed $175,000,000, (iii) any increase in either the Canadian Revolving Commitment or the UK Revolving Commitment, each as herein provided, shall require a corresponding dollar per dollar increase in the US Revolving Commitment (such corresponding increase shall not be deemed to be an additional increase), (iv) the Commitments may not be increased without the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (v) that portion of the Revolving Commitments representing an increase in the Revolving Commitments made pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall only be available for the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder (for purposes of determining compliance with this clause (v) Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be the last credit extended under a Revolving Commitment - it being intended that no Borrower shall be in violation of this clause (v) unless the principal amount of Revolving Loans and Protective Advances outstanding to such Borrower exceed the amount of the aggregate Revolving Commitments to such Borrower before giving effect to such increase), and (vi) the aggregate amount of such increases during the term of this Agreement shall not exceed $25,000,000.
Effectiveness of Commitment Increase by Borrower An Assuming Lender, if any, shall become a Lender hereunder as of such Commitment Increase Date and the Commitment of the respective Class of any Increasing Lender and such Assuming Lender shall be increased as of such Commitment Increase Date; provided that:
Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments If the maturity date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the maturity date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Credit Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.03(d)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Credit Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.17. If, for any reason, such Cash Collateral is not provided or the reallocation does not occur, the Revolving Credit Lenders under the maturing tranche shall continue to be responsible for their participating interests in the Letters of Credit. Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the second preceding sentence, the occurrence of a maturity date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such maturity date. Commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit shall be agreed with the Lenders under the extended tranches.
