(a) The Company and any one or more Banks (including New Banks) may, at any time when no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, agree that such Banks shall make, obtain or increase the amount of their Commitments by executing and delivering to the Agent an Increased Commitment Notice specifying (i) the amount of such increase and (ii) the applicable Increased Commitment Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) without the consent of the Required Banks, the aggregate amount of increased Commitments obtained after the Closing Date pursuant to this paragraph, together with any increase of commitments under the 5-Year Revolving Facility (or any facility that replaces or refinances the 5-Year Revolving Facility), shall not exceed $750,000,000 and (ii) without the consent of the Agent, each increase effected pursuant to this paragraph shall be in a minimum amount of at least $10,000,000. No Bank shall have any obligation to participate in any increase described in this paragraph unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.
(b) Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which, with the consent of the Company and the Agent (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), elects to become a “Bank” under this Agreement in connection with any transaction described in subsection 2.21(a) shall execute a New Bank supplement, substantially in the form of Exhibit J-1, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other entity (a “New Bank”) shall become a Bank 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.
(c) Initial Loans made under any such increased Commitments shall be made pursuant to funding procedures then agreed to by the Company and the Agent (including as to the initial interest applicable to such Loans), and payments of principal, interest and fees under this Agreement shall be made by the Company to give effect to such procedures and the timing of such increased Commitments. Payments to the Banks in respect of the Loans will be made to give effect to the allocations or reallocations described in this subsection.
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.
Increase of Commitments. On up to three occasions after the Effective Date, the Borrower at its option may, from time to time, seek to increase the Revolving Commitments by up to an aggregate amount of $200,000,000 (resulting in maximum total Revolving Commitments of $650,000,000) upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such increase (which shall not be less than $10,000,000) and shall certify that no Default has occurred and is continuing. After delivery of such notice, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, in consultation with the Administrative Agent, may offer the increase (which may be declined by any Lender in its sole discretion) in the Revolving Commitments on either a ratable basis to the Lenders or on a non pro-rata basis to one or more Lenders and/or to other Lenders or entities reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. No increase in the Revolving Commitment shall become effective until the existing or new Lenders extending such incremental Commitment amount and the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a document in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent pursuant to which (i) any such existing Lender agrees to the amount of its Revolving Commitment increase, (ii) any such new Lender agrees to its Revolving Commitment amount and agrees to assume and accept the obligations and rights of a Lender hereunder, (iii) the Borrower accepts such incremental Revolving Commitments, (iv) the effective date of any increase in the Revolving Commitments is specified and (v) the Borrower certifies that on such date the conditions for a new Loan set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied. Upon the effectiveness of any increase in the Revolving Commitments pursuant hereto, (i) each Lender (new or existing) shall be deemed to have accepted an assignment from the existing Lenders, and the existing Lenders shall be deemed to have made an assignment to each new or existing Lender accepting a new or increased Revolving Commitment, of an interest in each then outstanding Revolving Loan (in each case, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Assignment and Assumption) and (ii) the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the existing and new Lenders shall be automatically adjusted such that, after giving effect to such assignments and adjustments, all Revolving Credit Exposure hereunder is held ratably by the Lenders in pr...
Increase of Commitments. (a) If no Default or Event of Default or Material Adverse Effect shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers may at any time prior to the Termination Date request one or more increases of the Commitments by notice to the Agent in writing of the amount of such proposed increase (each such notice, a “Commitment Increase Notice”); provided, however, that, (i) the Commitment of any Lender may not be increased without such Lender’s consent, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Commitments as so increased shall not exceed $225,000,000, and (iii) the Commitments may not be increased without the consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Any such Commitment Increase Notice delivered with respect to any proposed increase in the Commitments must offer each Lender an opportunity to subscribe for its Commitment Percentage (with respect to the existing Commitments (prior to such increase)) of the increased Commitments. The Agent shall, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a Commitment Increase Notice, notify each Lender of such request. Each Lender desiring to increase its Commitment shall notify the Agent in writing no later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice from the Agent. Any Lender that does not notify the Agent within the time period specified above that it will increase its Commitment will be deemed to have rejected such offer. Any agreement by a Lender to increase its Commitment shall be irrevocable.
(b) If any proposed increase in the Commitments is not fully subscribed by the existing Lenders pursuant to the procedure outlined in clause (a) preceding, the Borrowers may, in their sole discretion, but with the consent of the Agent as to any Person that is not at such time a Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), offer to any existing Lender or to one or more additional banks or financial institutions the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of such unsubscribed portion of the Commitments, by notifying the Agent; provided, that the Commitment of any New Lender shall not be less than $15,000,000 and shall be in an integral multiple of $5,000,000. Promptly and in any event within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice from the Borrowers of their desire to offer such unsubscribed commitments to certain existing Lenders or to the additional banks or financial institutions identified therein, the Agent shall notify such proposed lenders of the opp...
Increase of Commitments. The Borrowers shall have the right to increase the aggregate Commitments by obtaining additional funding commitments either from one or more of the Lenders (it being understood that no Lender shall have, or be deemed to have, an obligation to provide a portion of any such increase in the Commitments merely by reason of being a party hereto) or any other commercial bank or financial institution generally engaged in the business of providing corporate loans on a revolving basis; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of all such increases hereunder shall not result in the aggregate Commitments exceeding $250,000,000 at any time, (ii) any Person that provides such increase shall be subject to the approval of the Majority Lenders and the LC Issuer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, (iii) any such Person assumes all of the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder on terms substantially similar to those contained in the Assignment Agreement but otherwise pursuant to an assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (acting on the directions of the Majority Lenders) between such Person, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and (iv) as a condition precedent to any such increase, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Obligor signed by a Responsible Officer of such Obligor certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Obligor approving or consenting to such increase, and certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects with the same effect as if then made (unless stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).
Increase of Commitments. (a) At any time after the Effective Date, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may request an increase of the aggregate Commitments by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount (the "OFFERED INCREASE AMOUNT") of such proposed increase (such notice, a "COMMITMENT INCREASE NOTICE"). Any such Commitment Increase Notice must offer each Lender the opportunity to subscribe for its pro rata share of the increased Commitments. If any portion of the increased Commitments is not subscribed for by the Lenders, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, but with the consent of the Administrative Agent as to any Person that is not at such time a Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), offer to any existing Lender or to one or more additional banks or financial institutions the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of such unsubscribed portion of the increased Commitments pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) below, as applicable.
Increase of Commitments. At any time during the Term, the Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon no less than ninety 90 days written notice to the Agent, to increase the Maximum Advance Amount by an aggregate amount not to exceed $20,000,000 under terms and conditions identical to those of the Revolving Advances, such additional amounts to be provided by the then existing Lenders or such other persons who become Lenders in connection therewith; provided that no such existing Lender shall be obligated to provide any such Advance in connection with the increase in the Maximum Advance Amount, and this section shall not be deemed a commitment by any Lender to increase such Maximum Advance Amount.
Increase of Commitments. (a) From and after the Closing Date, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments; provided that the aggregate amount of all increases in the Aggregate Commitments in effect on the date hereof pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) shall not exceed $500,000,000.

Increase of Commitments. Subject to the approval of the Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Borrower shall have the right to request an increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments (provided that the aggregate amount of such increases in the Commitments pursuant to this Section shall not exceed $55,000,000) by providing written notice to the Agent, which notice shall be irrevocable once given. Each such increase in the Commitments must be an aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request. Each existing Lender shall have the right to increase its Commitment by an amount so that such Lender's Commitment Percentage shall not be decreased as a result of such requested increase in the Commitments. All other allocations of such requested increase shall be subject to the approval of the Agent. Each Lender shall notify the Agent within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Agent's notice whether such Lender wishes to increase the amount of its Commitment. If a Lender fails to deliver any such notice to the Agent within such time period, then such Lender shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. No Lender shall be required to increase its Commitment and any new Lender(s) becoming a party to this Agreement in connection with any such requested increase must be an Eligible Assignee. In the event a new Lender or Lenders become a party to this Agreement, or if any existing Lender agrees to increase its Commitment, such Lender shall on the date it becomes a Lender hereunder (or increases its Commitment, in the case of an existing Lender) (and as a condition thereto) purchase from the other Lenders its Commitment Percentage (as determined after giving effect to the increase of Commitments) of any outstanding Revolving Loans, by making available to the Agent for the account of such other Lenders at the Principal Office, in same day funds, an amount equal to the sum of (a) the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans to be purchased by such Lender plus (b) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the other Lenders under Sections 2.2(e) or 2.4(j) which have not been repaid, and the Borrower shall pay to such other Lenders interest accrued and unpaid to and as of such date on such portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall also pay to the Lenders amou...
