Refinancing Amendments (a) On one or more occasions after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Refinancing Lender, Indebtedness to refinance or replace all or any portion of the Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Loans (or unused Revolving Credit Commitments) then outstanding under this Agreement (which for all purposes of this clause (a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans, Other Revolving Credit Commitments or Other Revolving Credit Loans), in the form of Other Term Loans, Other Term Loan Commitments, Other Revolving Credit Commitments, or Other Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.16 or otherwise, (i) the Other Term Loans and Other Revolving Credit Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, respectively, (ii) the Other Term Loans shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loans being refinanced and shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans being refinanced and (iii) the other terms and conditions of such Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Credit Commitments and Other Revolving Loans (excluding pricing, fees, rate floors and optional prepayment or redemption terms) shall, taken as a whole, be not materially more favorable to the lenders providing such Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Credit Commitments and Other Revolving Loans, as applicable, than, those applicable to the Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments being refinanced (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date).
Incremental Facilities (a) The Borrower may by written notice to Administrative Agent elect to request the establishment of one or more (x) additional tranches of term loans (the commitments thereto, the “New Term Loan Commitments”) and/or (y) increases in Revolving Credit Commitments (the “New Revolving Credit Commitments” and, together with the New Term Loan Commitments, the “New Loan Commitments”), by an aggregate amount not in excess of the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount in the aggregate and not less than $100,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount as (x) may be approved by the Administrative Agent or (y) shall constitute the difference between the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount and all such New Loan Commitments obtained on or prior to such date). Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the New Loan Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower may approach any Lender or any Person (other than a natural person) to provide all or a portion of the New Loan Commitments; provided that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of the New Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Loan Commitment. In each case, such New Loan Commitments shall become effective as of the applicable Increased Amount Date; provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Loan Commitments, as applicable; (ii) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of New Term Loans or New Revolving Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 7 shall be satisfied; (iii) the New Loan Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower and Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 5.4(d); (iv) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.11 in connection with the New Loan Commitments, as applicable; and (v) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Any New Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated, a separate series (a “Series”) of New Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.
Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations to fund or participate in Loans or Letters of Credit, Agent may exclude the Commitments and Loans of any Defaulting Lender(s) from the calculation of Pro Rata shares. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(c).
Extension Amendments (a) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion, including one or more Tranches, of any commitments or the Loans (including any Extended Loans), each existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Tranche” and the Loans of such Tranche, the “Existing Loans”) be converted to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of any Existing Tranche (any such Existing Tranche which has been so extended, “Extended Tranche” and the Loans of such Tranche, the “Extended Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this subsection 2.6. Subject to the provisions of this subsection 2.6, the Borrower may elect to extend an Existing Tranche by combining the Existing Loans thereunder with existing Extended Loans, in which case such Existing Loans shall become Extended Loans and shall constitute an Extension Series with such existing Extended Loans. In order to establish any Extended Tranche, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Tranche) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Tranche to be established, which Extension Request may be modified, revoked, or revoked and reissued by the Borrower at any time prior to the effectiveness of the Extension Amendment. The terms of an Extended Tranche to be established pursuant to an Extension Amendment shall be substantially similar to those applicable to the Existing Tranche from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Tranche”) except (w) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Tranches may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Specified Existing Tranche, (x) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Tranche may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Specified Existing Tranche and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Tranche in addition to or in lieu of any change in margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A), (y) the commitment fee, if any, with respect to the Extended Tranche may be higher or lower than the commitment fee, if any, for the Specified Existing Tranche, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, and (z) amortization with respect to the Extended Term Tranche may be greater or lesser than amortization for the Specified Existing Tranche, so long as the Extended Term Tranche does not have a weighted average life to maturity shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Specified Existing Tranche; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 2.6 or otherwise, assignments and participations of Extended Tranches shall be governed by the same or, at the Borrower’s discretion, more restrictive assignment and participation provisions than the assignment and participation provisions applicable to Term Loans set forth in subsection 10.6. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Existing Loans or, if applicable, commitments of any Existing Tranche converted into an Extended Tranche pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Tranche shall constitute a separate Tranche of Term Loans or revolving commitments, as applicable, from the Specified Existing Tranches and from any other Existing Tranches (together with any other Extended Tranches so established on such date).
