(i) the aggregate amount of all Additional Commitments shall not exceed the sum of (A) (x) the greater of $125,000,000 and an amount equal to 100.0% of Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters ending with the latest fiscal quarter (or fiscal year) for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 less (y) the aggregate principal amount of Junior Lien Indebtedness incurred under Section 7.02(b)(i) less (z) the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Notes incurred under Section 7.02(u)(A) (the amount in this clause (A), the “Incremental Dollar Basket”), plus (B) all voluntary prepayments of Term Loans and voluntary commitment reductions of Revolving Credit Commitments prior to or simultaneous with the Additional Commitments Effective Date (excluding voluntary prepayments of Additional Term Loans and voluntary commitment reductions of Additional Revolving Credit Commitments, to the extent such Additional Term Loans and Additional Revolving Credit Commitments were obtained pursuant to clause (C) below), plus (C) additional amounts so long as the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recently ended period of four consecutive fiscal quarters for which financial statements are internally available, as if any Additional Term Loans or Additional Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable and in either case incurred pursuant to this clause (C), available under such Additional Commitments had been outstanding on the last day of such period, and, in each case (x) with respect to any Additional Revolving Credit Commitment incurred pursuant to this clause (C), assuming a borrowing of the maximum amount of Loans available thereunder, and (y) excluding the cash proceeds of any Loans pursuant to such Additional Commitments, do not exceed 3.75:1.00 and 6.50:1.00, respectively (this clause (C), the “Incremental Ratio Exception”);
(ii) any such increase or any new Class shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; provided that such amount may be less than $10,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the preceding clause (i);
(iii) the final maturity date of any Additional Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date;
(iv) the Additional Term Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity equal to or greater than the then remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of each Class of Term Loans outstanding prior to such proposed incurrence of Additional Term Loans (the “Outstanding Term Loans”);
(v) the Applicable Rate with respect to any Additional Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders of the Additional Term Loans; provided that with respect to any Additional Term Loans incurred prior to the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date, (x) in the event that the Applicable Rate for any such Additional Term Loans is greater than the Applicable Rate for the Term B Loans by more than 50 basis points, then the Applicable Rate for the Term B Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Applicable Rate for the Additional Term Loans is not more than 50 basis points higher than the Applicable Rate for the Term B Loans; provided, further, that, in determining the Applicable Rate with respect to Additional Term Loans or the applicable Class of Outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this clause (v), (A) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront or similar fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrower to the lenders providing such Additional Term Loans or such Outstanding Term Loans in the primary syndication thereof (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity) shall be included and (B) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to any lead arranger (or its affiliates) in connection with the Additional Term Loans or Outstanding Term Loans shall be excluded, and (y) if any Eurodollar Rate “floor” or Base Rate “floor” applicable to any Additional Term Loans exceeds the Eurodollar Rate “floor” or Base Rate “floor” applicable to the Outstanding Term Loans, the Eurodollar Rate “floor” or Base Rate applicable to the Term B Loans shall be increased so that the applicable “floor” is the same;
(vi) no existing Lender shall be required to provide any Additional Commitments;
(vii) subject to clause (iv), the amortization schedule applicable to the Additional Term Commitments shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereof;
(viii) the Additional Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the existing Loans; and
(ix) the Additional Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and prepayment premiums) and mandatory prepayment terms as may be agreed between the Borrower and the lenders of the Additional Term Loans so long as such Additional Term Loans do not participate on a greater than pro rata basis in any such mandatory prepayments as compared to Term B Loans.
(b) Each such notice shall specify (x) the date (each, an “Additional Commitments Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Additional Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (y) the identity of the Persons (each of which shall be a Person that would be an Eligible Assignee (for this purpose treating a Lender of Additional Commitments as if it were an assignee)) whom the Borrower proposes would provide the Additional Commitments and the portion of the Additional Commitment to be provided by each such Person. As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any Additional Commitments, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate dated as of the Additional Commitments Effective Date signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that, before and after giving effect to the Additional Commitments (and assuming full utilization thereof), (i) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Additional Commitments Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.16(b), the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.05(a) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to subsection (a) of Section 6.01 and (ii) no Default or Event of Default exists. On each Additional Commitments Effective Date with respect to any Additional Term Commitment, each Person with an Additional Term Commitment shall make an Additional Term Loan to the Borrower in a principal amount equal to such Person’s Additional Term Commitment. The Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on the Additional Commitments Effective Date with respect to any Additional Revolving Credit Commitment (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments. If there is a new Borrowing of Revolving Credit Commitments on such Additional Commitments Effective Date, the Revolving Credit Lenders after giving effect to such Additional Revolving Credit Commitments shall make such Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.01(b).
(c) Any other terms of and documentation entered into in respect of any Additional Term Commitments shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Additional Term Commitments (including with respect to voluntary and mandatory prepayments), other than as contemplated by Section 2.16(a)(iii), (iv), (v), (vii), (viii) or (ix) above; provided that to the extent such other terms and documentation in respect of any Additional Term Loans are not consistent with those of the Term B Loans (except to the extent permitted by Section 2.16(a)(iii), (iv), (v), (vii), (viii) or (ix) above) they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(d) The Additional Commitments shall be documented by an Additional Credit Extension Amendment executed by the Persons providing the Additional Commitments (and the other Persons specified in the definition of Additional Credit Extension Amendment but no other existing Lender), and the Additional Credit Extension Amendment may provide for such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.16.
(e) This Section 2.16 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or Section 11.01 to the contrary.
Optional Reduction and Termination of Commitments (a) Unless previously terminated, all Revolving Commitments, Swingline Commitments and LC Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date.
(b) Upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable unless the Borrower provides in such notice (in connection with a termination in whole) that it is conditional on the occurrence of another financing or transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked if such financing or transaction does not occur on a timely basis; provided that the Borrower shall pay all amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.19 as a result of such revocation), the Borrower may reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in part or terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in whole; provided that (i) any partial reduction shall apply to reduce proportionately and permanently the Revolving Commitment of each Lender, (ii) any partial reduction pursuant to this Section shall be in an amount of at least $5,000,000 and any larger multiple of $1,000,000, and (iii) no such reduction shall be permitted which would reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount to an amount less than the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders. Any such reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount below the principal amount of the Swingline Commitment and the LC Commitment shall result in a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the Swingline Commitment and the LC Commitment, as applicable.
(c) With the written approval of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may terminate (on a non-ratable basis) the unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, and in such event the provisions of Section 2.26 will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of any such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.
