(a)           If, immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to any increase in the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.20, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may at any time and from time to time, but in no event more than one (1) time per fiscal quarter, request an increase of the Commitments of one or more Classes (each, an “Incremental Commitment Increase”), by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of such proposed increase (such notice, a “Commitment Increase Notice”); provided, however, that (i) each such Incremental Commitment Increase for each Class shall be in a principal amount of at least $5,000,000, (ii) the Commitment of any Lender may not be increased without such Lender’s consent, and (iii) the Borrower shall not have the right to increase the aggregate Commitments if the effect of such increase would cause the aggregate of all Incremental Commitment Increases during the term hereof to exceed $50,000,000.  The

 

4











 

Administrative Agent shall promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days after Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Commitment Increase Notice, notify (A) each Lender, and (B) with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), each Person not then a Lender but which is a bank or other financial institution selected by the Borrower, in each case of the Borrower’s request for such increase and the Borrower’s invitation to participate in all or a portion of such increase.

 

(b)           Each Lender desiring to increase its Commitment shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing no later than fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Lender of such notice from the Administrative Agent.  Any Lender that accepts an offer to it by the Borrower to increase its Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall, in each case, execute an agreement (a “Commitment Increase Agreement”), in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, whereupon such Lender shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to the full amount of its Commitment as so increased, and the definition of Revolving Commitment and/or Term Commitment, as applicable, in Section 1.01 and Schedule 2.01 hereof shall be deemed to be amended to reflect such increase.  Any Lender that does not notify the Administrative Agent within such period that it will increase its Commitment shall be deemed to have rejected such offer to increase its Commitment.  No Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to increase its Commitment.  Any agreement to increase a Lender’s pro rata share of the increased Commitment shall be irrevocable and shall be effective upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent at the same time as that of all other increasing Lenders.

 

(c)           Any additional bank or financial institution that the Borrower selects to offer participation in the increased Commitments shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a New Lender Agreement (a “New Lender Agreement”), in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit H, setting forth its Commitment, and upon the effectiveness of such New Lender Agreement such bank or financial institution (a “New Lender”) shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, and the signature pages hereof shall be deemed to be amended to add the name of such New Lender and the definition of Revolving Commitment and/or Term Commitment, as applicable, in Section 1.01 and Schedule 2.01 hereof shall be deemed amended to increase the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders by the Commitment of such New Lender; provided that the Commitment of any New Lender shall be in a principal amount not less than $5,000,000.  Each New Lender Agreement shall be irrevocable and shall be effective upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent at the same time as that of all other New Lenders.

 

(d)           The effectiveness of any New Lender Agreement or Commitment Increase Agreement shall be contingent upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such corporate resolutions of the Borrower and legal opinions of counsel to the Borrower as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request with respect thereto, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  Once a New Lender Agreement or Commitment Increase Agreement becomes effective, the

 

5











 

Administrative Agent shall reflect the increases in the Commitments effected by such agreements by appropriate entries in the Register.

 

(e)           If any bank or financial institution becomes a New Lender with respect to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.20(c) or any Lender’s Revolving Commitment is increased pursuant to Section 2.20(b), additional Revolving Loans made on or after the effectiveness thereof (the “Re-Allocation Date”) shall be made pro rata based on their respective Revolving Commitments in effect on or after such Re-Allocation Date (except to the extent that any such pro rata borrowings would result in any Lender making an aggregate principal amount of Loans in excess of its Revolving Commitment, in which case such excess amount will be allocated to, and made by, such New Lender and/or Lenders with such increased Revolving Commitments to the extent of, and pro rata based on, their respective Revolving Commitments), and continuations of Revolving Loans outstanding on such Re-Allocation Date shall be effected by repayment of such Revolving Loans on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto or, in the case of ABR Revolving Loan(s), on the date of such increase, and the making of new Revolving Loans of the same Type pro rata based on the respective Revolving Commitments; provided, however, for the purpose of Section 4.02, the making of such new Loans shall be deemed continuations of Borrowings.

 

(f)            If on any Re-Allocation Date there is an unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Revolving Loans, such Eurodollar Revolving Loans shall remain outstanding with the respective holders thereof until the expiration of their respective Interest Periods (unless the Borrower elects to prepay any thereof in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement), and interest on and repayments of such Eurodollar Revolving Loans pro rata based on the respective principal amounts thereof outstanding.

 

(g)           On the effective date of any Incremental Commitment Increase in respect of the Term Commitments, each Lender with a new or increased Term Commitment shall make a Loan (each such loan, an “Incremental Term Loan”) to the Borrower in a principal amount equal to the amount of (i) with respect to an existing Lender, the amount of the increase with respect to such Lender’s increased Term Commitment, or (ii) with respect to a New Lender, such Lender’s new Term Commitment, as set forth in such Lender’s Commitment Increase Agreement or New Lender Agreement, as applicable.  Incremental Term Loans shall be “Term Loans” for all purposes under this Agreement.”
