Related to Increase in Rc Commitment

• Increase in Revolving Commitments (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request that the total Revolving Commitment be increased by an aggregate amount not to exceed the Incremental Revolving Facility Amount at such time. Upon the receipt of such request by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy thereof to each Revolving Lender. Such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested increase (which shall be in minimum increments of $500,000 and a minimum amount of $2,500,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Revolving Facility Amount) and the date on which such increase is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice and which, in any event, must be prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date), and shall offer each Revolving Lender the opportunity to increase its Revolving Commitment by its Pro Rata Percentage of the proposed increased amount. Each Revolving Lender shall, by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent given not more than 10 days after the date of the Administrative Agent’s notice, either agree to increase its Revolving Commitment by all or a portion of the offered amount (each Revolving Lender so agreeing being an “Increasing Revolving Lender”) or decline to increase its Revolving Commitment (and any Revolving Lender that does not deliver such a notice within such period of 10 days shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Commitment) (each Revolving Lender so declining or being deemed to have declined being a Non-Increasing Revolving Lender”). In the event that, on the 10th day after the Administrative Agent shall have delivered a notice pursuant to the second sentence of this paragraph, the Increasing Revolving Lenders shall have agreed pursuant to the preceding sentence to increase their Revolving Commitments by an aggregate amount less than the increase requested by the Borrower, such Borrower may arrange for one or more banks or other entities (any such bank or other entity being called an “Augmenting Revolving Lender”), which may include any Lender, to extend Revolving Commitments or increase their existing Revolving Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to the unsubscribed amount; provided, however, that each Augmenting Revolving Lender shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the Borrower and each Augmenting Revolving Lender shall execute all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence its Revolving Commitment and/or its status as a Revolving Lender hereunder, Any such increase may be made in an amount that is less than the increase requested by the Borrower if such Borrower is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to arrange for, Augmenting Revolving Lenders.

• Increase in Commitments The Borrower may, at its option, at any time or from time to time prior to the Termination Date, increase the Total Commitments (each such increase, a “Commitment Increase” and the additional Commitments pursuant to each such Commitment Increase, “Incremental Commitments”) to an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $225,000,000400,000,000 (with each Commitment Increase being in a minimum aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 (the “Minimum Increase Amount”) or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess of the Minimum Increase Amount) by requesting that existing Lenders or new lenders commit to any such increase; provided that: (i) no Lender shall be required to commit to any such increase; (ii) no such increase shall become effective unless at the time thereof and after giving effect thereto (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects, provided, that, to the extent any such representation and warranty is already qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, such representation shall be true and correct in all respects, and (C) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate from the Borrower to the effect of (A) and (B) of clause (ii); and (iii) no new lender shall become a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.21 unless such lender is an Eligible Assignee and the Administrative Agent shall have given its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Borrower shall be entitled to pay upfront or other fees to such lenders who extend credit pursuant to this Section 2.21 as the Borrower and such lenders may agree. Each Commitment Increase shall become effective on the date (each such date, an “Increased Facility Closing Date”) specified in an activation notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of such notice specifying the amount of the increase and the effective date thereof. Each new lender that provides any part of any such increase in the Commitments (a “New Lender”) shall execute a New Lender Supplement (each, a “New Lender Supplement”), substantially in the form of Exhibit E, whereupon such New Lender shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement to such extent. On any Increased Facility Closing Date, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the Lenders shall be deemed to assign to each Person with Incremental Commitments (each, an “Incremental Lender”) and each of the Incremental Lenders shall be deemed to purchase from each of the Lenders, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in the Revolving Loans outstanding on such Increased Facility Closing Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, the Revolving Loans will be held by the Lenders (including Incremental Lenders) ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Incremental Commitments to the Commitments, (ii) each Incremental Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Commitment and each Revolving Loan made thereunder (an “Incremental Loan”) shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Loan and (iii) each Incremental Lender that is a New Lender shall become a Lender in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. The terms and provisions of the Incremental Loans and Incremental Commitments shall be substantially identical to the terms and conditions of the Revolving Loans and Commitments.

• Increase in Revolving Credit Commitments The Borrower may, from time to time, on any Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments by delivering a Commitment Amount Increase Request substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the desired effective date of such increase (the “Commitment Amount Increase”) identifying one or more additional Lenders (or additional Revolving Credit Commitments for existing Lender(s) or by a combination of existing Lenders and additional Lenders) and the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment (or additional amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment(s)); provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall not be increased to an amount in excess of $150,000,000, (ii) any Commitment Amount Increase shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000 or such lesser amount as approved by the Administrative Agent, (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the request or the effective date of the Commitment Amount Increase and (iv) all representations and warranties contained in Section 6 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) at the time of such request and on the effective date of such Commitment Amount Increase except for representations and warranties that relate to a prior date, which shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) as of the applicable date on which they were made. The effective date of the Commitment Amount Increase shall be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness thereof, the new Lender(s) (or, if applicable, existing Lender(s)) shall advance Revolving Loans in an amount sufficient such that after giving effect to its advance each Lender shall have outstanding its Revolver Percentage of Revolving Loans. It shall be a condition to such effectiveness that if any Eurodollar Loans are outstanding under the Revolving Credit on the date of such effectiveness, such Eurodollar Loans shall be deemed to be prepaid on such date and the Borrower shall pay any amounts owing to the Lenders pursuant to Section 1.11 hereof. In the event that the Borrower shall have terminated any portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 1.11 hereof, the terminated commitment amount shall reduce the Commitment Amount Increase by the terminated commitment amount. The Borrower agrees to pay any reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent relating to any Commitment Amount Increase and arrangement fees related thereto as agreed upon in writing between Administrative Agent and the Borrower, if any. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment and no Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment shall be increased without its consent thereto, and each Lender may at its option, unconditionally and without cause, decline to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment.

• L/C Commitment (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue Letters of Credit upon the request and for the account of the Borrower (and for the benefit of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower) on any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Issuing Lender; provided that no Issuing Lender shall issue any Letter of Credit if, (i) after giving effect to such issuance, (A) the L/C Exposure would exceed the L/C Commitment or (B) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero or (C) unless otherwise agreed to by such Issuing Lender, the L/C Exposure with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender would exceed such Issuing Lender’s Specified L/C Commitment or (ii) such Issuing Lender shall have received written notice from the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 5.2 shall not have been satisfied. On the Restatement Effective Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the Borrower. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date (as it may be extended, so long as the Available Revolving Commitments of all Continuing Lenders would equal or exceed zero following such extension); provided, however, that any Letter of Credit, whether newly requested or an existing Letter of Credit that is extended or automatically renewed, may have an expiration date after the Revolving Termination Date (so long as such expiration date remains in compliance with clause (x) above) so long as the Borrower cash collateralizes such Letter of Credit at 101% of the available face amount of such Letter of Credit on or prior to the date which is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date and the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Lender providing such Letter of Credit agree to such expiration date at the time such Letter of Credit or extension is requested or at the time such existing Letter of Credit is to be automatically renewed, as applicable; provided further that any Letter of Credit (other than a Letter of Credit to which Section 2.18(c)(ii) applies) with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall only extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above if the condition described in the first proviso of this sentence is satisfied).

• Increase in Underwriters’ Commitments Subject to Sections 6 and 7 hereof, if any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to take up and pay for the Firm Shares to be purchased by it hereunder (otherwise than for a failure of a condition set forth in Section 6 hereof or a reason sufficient to justify the termination of this Agreement under the provisions of Section 7 hereof) and if the number of Firm Shares which all Underwriters so defaulting shall have agreed but failed to take up and pay for does not exceed 10% of the total number of Firm Shares, the non-defaulting Underwriters (including the Underwriters, if any, substituted in the manner set forth below) shall take up and pay for (in addition to the aggregate number of Firm Shares they are obligated to purchase pursuant to Section 1 hereof) the number of Firm Shares agreed to be purchased by all such defaulting Underwriters, as hereinafter provided. Such Shares shall be taken up and paid for by such non-defaulting Underwriters in such amount or amounts as you may designate with the consent of each Underwriter so designated or, in the event no such designation is made, such Shares shall be taken up and paid for by all non-defaulting Underwriters pro rata in proportion to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of such non-defaulting Underwriters in Schedule A. Without relieving any defaulting Underwriter from its obligations hereunder, the Company agrees with the non-defaulting Underwriters that it will not sell any Firm Shares hereunder unless all of the Firm Shares are purchased by the Underwriters (or by substituted Underwriters selected by you with the approval of the Company or selected by the Company with your approval). If a new Underwriter or Underwriters are substituted by the Underwriters or by the Company for a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters in accordance with the foregoing provision, the Company or you shall have the right to postpone the time of purchase for a period not exceeding five business days in order that any necessary changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and other documents may be effected. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall refer to and include any Underwriter substituted under this Section 8 with like effect as if such substituted Underwriter had originally been named in Schedule A hereto. If the aggregate number of Firm Shares which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to purchase exceeds 10% of the total number of Firm Shares which all Underwriters agreed to purchase hereunder, and if neither the non-defaulting Underwriters nor the Company shall make arrangements within the five business day period stated above for the purchase of all the Firm Shares which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to purchase hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate without further act or deed and without any liability on the part of the Company to any Underwriter and without any liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter to the Company. Nothing in this paragraph, and no action taken hereunder, shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

Revolving Loans may consist of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, or a combination thereof, as the Borrowers may request and may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however, that no more than six Eurodollar Loans shall be outstanding hereunder at any time with respect to Revolving Loans. For purposes hereof, Eurodollar Loans with different Interest Periods shall be considered as separate Eurodollar Loans, even if they begin on the same date and have the same duration, although borrowings, extensions and conversions may, in accordance with the provisions hereof, be combined at the end of existing Interest Periods to constitute a new Eurodollar Loan with a single Interest Period.
