Incremental Equivalent Debt Clause Samples
The Incremental Equivalent Debt clause defines the conditions under which a borrower may incur additional debt that is treated as equivalent to existing incremental debt under a financing agreement. Typically, this clause allows the borrower to raise new debt with terms and security similar to prior incremental facilities, often subject to certain caps or requirements such as maintaining leverage ratios or obtaining lender consent. Its core practical function is to provide flexibility for the borrower to access additional financing while ensuring that new debt does not adversely affect the interests of existing lenders, thereby maintaining the agreed risk profile and protections within the credit structure.
