Incremental Credit Extensions Clause Samples
The Incremental Credit Extensions clause allows a borrower to request additional credit facilities or increases to existing loan commitments under the terms of an existing credit agreement. In practice, this clause sets out the conditions and procedures for obtaining such incremental loans, including limits on the total amount, required lender consents, and any necessary documentation or approvals. Its core function is to provide flexibility for the borrower to access more funds as needed, while ensuring that lenders retain control over the terms and risk exposure associated with any increases in credit.
Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time on one or more occasions after the Effective Date, by written notice delivered to the First Lien Administrative Agent, request (i) one or more additional Classes of term loans (each a “First Lien Incremental Term Facility”), (ii) one or more additional term loans of the same Class of any existing Class of term loans (each an “First Lien Incremental Term Increase”), (iii) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Commitments of any Class (each such increase, an “Incremental Revolving Commitment Increase”) and/or (iv) one or more additional Classes of Revolving Commitments (the “Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments,” and, together with any First Lien Incremental Term Facility, First Lien Incremental Term Increase and the Incremental Revolving Commitment Increases, the “First Lien Incremental Facilities” and any Loans thereunder, the “Incremental Loans”); provided that, after giving effect to the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment referred to below and at the time that any such First Lien Incremental Facility is made or effected, (i) no Event of Default (except, in the case of the incurrence or provision of any First Lien Incremental Facility in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other Investment not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, no Specified Event of Default) shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) the Borrower shall be in Pro Forma Compliance with the Financial Performance Covenant for the Test Period then last ended (regardless of whether such Financial Performance Covenant is applicable at such time and without deducting in calculating the numerator of such Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio any cash proceeds thereof). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate principal amount of the First Lien Incremental Facilities that can be incurred at any time shall not exceed the Incremental Cap at such time. Each First Lien Incremental Facility shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof if such Incremental Facilities are denominated in Dollars (unless the Borrower and the First Lien Administrative Agent otherwise agree); provided that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 and to the extent such amount represents all the remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of First Lien Incremental Facilities set forth above.
