What the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement Is

A Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement is a combined financing contract that sets out a borrower's ability to draw on a revolving facility (short-term, reusable borrowing capacity) alongside a term loan (fixed principal with scheduled repayments). The document defines facility amounts, borrowing conditions, interest rates, fees, collateral and security interests, covenants, events of default, notice procedures, and maturity. It is used by lenders, borrowers, and guarantors to allocate credit risk, establish repayment mechanics and preserve remedies such as acceleration and foreclosure if covenants or payment obligations are breached.

Why a Combined Revolving and Term Loan Document Matters

This agreement consolidates short-term liquidity and long-term financing into one enforceable contract, clarifies repayment priorities, and preserves lender remedies. Properly executed, it allocates risk, supports collateral perfection, and reduces ambiguity that can delay funding or enforcement under ESIGN (15 U.S.C. ch. 96) and state UETA rules.

Why a Combined Revolving and Term Loan Document Matters

Who Typically Prepares and Signs This Agreement

Signatories often include authorized officers of borrower and lender, any guarantors, and in many cases counsel or closing agents to certify signature authority.

  • Banks and credit unions providing structured facilities across multiple tranches and maturities.
  • Middle-market and corporate borrowers negotiating combined working capital and term financing.
  • Outside counsel and in-house legal teams drafting loan covenants and collateral descriptions.

Step-by-step: Completing the Agreement

Follow this sequence to complete the document accurately and reduce rework.

  • 01
    Prepare: Assemble borrower, lender, guarantor, and collateral details.
  • 02
    Populate: Enter facility amounts, rates, fees, dates, and reporting obligations.
  • 03
    Review: Have counsel check covenants, default language, and UCC descriptions.
  • 04
    Execute: Obtain authorized signatures, notarizations, and file UCC-1 if required.

Security, Compliance, and Technical Protections

Encryption: AES-256 at rest
Transport: TLS 1.2/1.3 in transit
Audit Trail: Timestamps and IP logging
Certifications: SOC 2 Type II available
HIPAA Support: BAA required
Retention: Tamper-evident storage options

Key Risks and Penalties from Drafting Errors

Default Acceleration: Lender may accelerate debt
Repricing: Higher default interest rate
UCC Filing Gaps: Loss of perfected priority
Cross-Default: Other obligations triggered
Enforcement Costs: Attorney and foreclosure fees
Tax Withholding: Backup withholding consequences

Common Preparation Pitfalls to Avoid

  • Using informal or abbreviated legal names that prevent accurate UCC filings and collateral perfection; verify against formation records.
  • Vague collateral descriptions that fail to cover after-acquired property or specific accounts receivable classes, allowing debtor disputes.
  • Missing or incorrect signature authority where individuals sign without corporate resolutions, creating execution challenges in enforcement.
  • Incorrect effective or funding dates that misalign interest accrual, covenant testing periods, and repayment schedules.

Critical Sections to Review Carefully

These six elements determine how credit is provided, secured, and enforced under the agreement.

Facility Structure

Defines Revolving availability, borrowing base mechanics, term loan tranches, sublimits, and how drawings and repayments interact across facilities.

Interest & Fees

Specifies rate calculation, spreads, default interest, commitment and utilization fees, and fee waiver or converter provisions.

Covenants

Includes affirmative and negative covenants, financial tests, reporting obligations, and procedures for breach notices and cure periods.

Events of Default

Lists payment defaults, covenant breaches, cross-defaults, insolvency events, and lender remedies including acceleration and enforcement.

Security Interests

Describes collateral, perfection steps, UCC-1 filing requirements, priorities, and procedures for releasing or substituting collateral.

Notices & Reporting

Sets notice addresses, permitted delivery methods, periodic reporting schedules, and requirements for certified financial statements.

Configuring an Online Signing Workflow

Map signer roles, authentication, and conditional fields before sending to avoid rework and ensure enforceability.

Field Configuration
Signer Order Sequential or parallel signer routing
Conditional Fields Show fields based on selections
Authentication Email, SMS code, or KBA
Storage Encrypted archive with audit trail

Technical Considerations for eSigning and Distribution

Select a platform that meets compliance needs (ESIGN, UETA, 21 CFR Part 11 where required), supports secure storage and audit logs, and integrates with your document management and accounting systems.

  • Integrations: Salesforce, NetSuite, Google Workspace
  • File Types: PDF, DOCX, HTML supported
  • Auth Methods: Email, SMS, or advanced 2FA

Typical Online Signing Flow

A standard eight-step workflow reduces friction and preserves signature evidence.

  • Upload: Load the agreement and attachments into the signing platform.
  • Place Fields: Add signature, initial, date, and conditional fields where needed.
  • Send: Email or generate secure signing link to each signer.
  • Complete: Signers authenticate, sign, and receive final signed copies with audit trail.

Key Dates and Timing Considerations

Track these dates to align funding, covenant tests, filings, and maturity obligations.

Effective Date:

Date when obligations and covenants commence, entered as MM/DD/YYYY.

Funding / Closing Date:

Date by which initial advance is made and security interests are perfected.

Covenant Testing Dates:

Quarterly or monthly test dates for financial covenants and reporting deadlines.

UCC Filing Deadline:

File UCC-1 promptly after execution to perfect security in most states.

Maturity Date:

Date when remaining term loan principal becomes due per schedule.
