Fees- Front End Fee– Commitment Fee Clause Samples

The 'Fees- Front End Fee– Commitment Fee' clause defines the types of fees a borrower must pay to a lender at the outset and during the commitment period of a loan agreement. Typically, a front end fee is a one-time charge paid upon the signing or funding of the loan, while a commitment fee is an ongoing charge calculated on the unused portion of the loan facility during the period the lender commits to making funds available. This clause ensures that the lender is compensated for both the administrative costs of setting up the loan and for reserving funds for the borrower, even if the full amount is not drawn, thereby allocating costs and clarifying financial obligations.
