Incurrence Test Sample Clauses
An Incurrence Test is a contractual provision that sets specific financial conditions a company must meet before it can take on additional debt or certain obligations. Typically, this test requires the company to maintain certain financial ratios, such as a minimum interest coverage ratio or a maximum leverage ratio, at the time new debt is incurred. For example, a company may only be allowed to borrow more money if its earnings are sufficient to cover interest payments by a specified multiple. The core function of the Incurrence Test is to protect lenders or investors by ensuring the company does not overextend itself financially, thereby reducing the risk of default.
