L2 Syndicated Loan |
---|
L2.1 Arrangement Fee | 0 ~ 5% of the amount on loan agreement. | As the primary bank of a syndicate loan, we provide a series of services to the borrower, including but not limited to organizing the syndicate structure, full or partial underwriting, distributing syndicate loan shares, arranging the syndicate loan, conducting bank due diligence, drafting documents, organizing negotiations, convening syndicate meetings, and assisting with post-loan management. |
L2.2 Commitment Fee | 0 ~ 3% of unused credit amount, charged by quarterly, half-annually or annually. | This applies to all committed syndicate loans. The syndicate loan agreement typically stipulates a drawdown period, during which participating banks generally commit to the amounts under the loan agreement using their own funds or market funds. If the borrower does not draw down or the drawdown does not reach the total committed amount, the banks will incur costs associated with the undrawn portion of the funds. |
L2.3 Agency Fee | Capped at 3% of the loan limit amount, usually charged on annual basis. | As the agent bank for the syndicate loan, we fulfill the obligations outlined in the syndicate loan agreement and provide management and coordination services for the syndicate loan affairs of the borrower. |
L2.4 Participation Fee | 0 ~ 5% of the loan amount. | As a participating bank in a syndicated loan, this fee is charged based on the loan amount that our bank undertakes to the borrower. |
L2.5 Extension Arrangement Fee | 0 ~ 5% of the extended amount. | If the borrower requests an extension and the lending bank agrees (after a risk assessment), the loan may be extended after its maturity.The process is generally coordinated by the primary bank, which discusses the relevant terms of the extension with the lending banks and the borrower. Once all parties agree, an extension agreement can be signed. |
L2.6 Processing Fees for Various Waivers | 0 ~ 5% of the loan amount. | If the borrower or obligor requests a waiver for violations, amendments, or changes to the commitments or other provisions in the syndicated loan financing documents, and the lender agrees, this fee applies. The process generally involves the primary bank coordinating communication between the borrower or obligor and the lending bank. The lending bank will decide whether to grant consent after independent evaluation and risk assessment. Once the agreed percentage specified in the syndicated loan financing documents is achieved, the agent bank will issue a waiver confirmation letter. |
