Incremental Loans Clause Samples
The Incremental Loans clause allows a borrower to request additional loan commitments or increases to existing loans under the same credit agreement, subject to certain conditions and lender approvals. Typically, this clause outlines the maximum amount of incremental loans permitted, the process for requesting such increases, and any requirements for new or existing lenders to participate. Its core practical function is to provide the borrower with flexibility to access additional financing as needed without negotiating a new agreement, thereby streamlining the process and ensuring efficient access to capital.
Incremental Loans. Any Incremental Commitments effected through the establishment of one or more new revolving credit commitments or new Term Loans not in the same Facility of any existing Class of Term Loans made on an Incremental Facility Closing Date shall be designated a separate Class of Incremental Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Term Commitments of any Class are effected (including through any Term Loan Increase), subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall make a Loan to the Borrower (or any Loan Party organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof, may be designated as a borrower in respect thereof so long as all obligors under such Incremental Facility are the same as with respect to the Loans hereunder) (an “Incremental Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Term Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class are effected through the establishment of one or more new revolving credit commitments (including through any Revolving Commitment Increase), subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender of such Class shall make its Commitment available to the Borrower (or any Loan Party organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof, may be designated as a borrower in respect thereof so long as all obligors under such Incremental Facility are the same as with respect to the Loans hereunder) (when borrowed, “Incremental Revolving Credit Loans” and collectively with Incremental Term Loans, an “Incremental Loans”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Revolving Credit Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto.

Incremental Loans. (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request Incremental Loan Commitments, in an amount not to exceed the Incremental Amount at the time such Incremental Loan Commitments are established, from one or more Incremental Term Lenders (which may include any existing Lender and which must be Eligible Assignees) willing to provide such Incremental Loan Commitments in their own discretion. Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Loan Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Amount or in each case such lesser amount approved by the Administrative Agent), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Loan Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice), and (iii) whether such Incremental Loan Commitments are commitments to make additional Loans or commitments to make term loans with terms different from the Loans (“Other Loans”).
