Credit Party Assignments No Credit Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or other obligations hereunder or under any other Financing Document without the prior written consent of Agent and each Lender.
Subsidiary Borrowers (a) The Company may at any time, upon not less than 5 Business Days’ notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be reasonably agreed by the Administrative Agent), designate any one or more Domestic Subsidiaries, Canadian Subsidiaries or Dutch Subsidiaries of the Company that have assets of the type eligible for inclusion in the applicable Borrowing Base (an “Applicant Borrower”) as a U.S. Borrower, Canadian Borrower or Dutch Borrower, respectively, to receive Loans hereunder by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver counterparts thereof to each Lender) a duly executed notice and agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit K or such other form as may be agreed by the Company and the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably) (a “Borrower Designation Request and Assumption Agreement”). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Borrower becoming entitled to utilize the credit facilities provided for herein the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received such supporting resolutions, constitutional documents, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel, other documents required to be delivered pursuant to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement, valuations and other documents, instruments or information (including any “know-your-customer” information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (through the Administrative Agent)), in each case similar in scope and substance to the same type of documents delivered on the Closing Date, as may be required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, and Notes signed by such new Borrowers to the extent any Lenders so require. If the Administrative Agent agrees that an Applicant Borrower shall have satisfied all of the requirements of this Section 2.21 and, therefore, be entitled to receive Loans hereunder, then promptly following receipt of all such requested resolutions, incumbency certificates, other documents required to be delivered pursuant to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement, opinions of counsel and other documents, instruments or information, the Administrative Agent shall send a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit K (a “Borrower Designation Notice”) to the Company and the Lenders specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Borrower shall constitute a U.S. Borrower, if the Applicant Borrower is a Domestic Subsidiary, a Canadian Borrower, if the Applicant Borrower is a Canadian Subsidiary, or a Dutch Borrower, if the Applicant Borrower is a Dutch Subsidiary, for purposes hereof, whereupon each of the Lenders agrees to permit such Applicant Borrower to become a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement (including to receive Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein); provided that no Notice of Borrowing may be submitted by or on behalf of such Applicant Borrower until one Business Day after such effective date.
Borrower Documents Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Administrative Agent the following, each, unless otherwise noted, dated as of the Closing Date:
Additional Borrowers Other investment companies (or series of investment companies), in addition to those Borrowers which are original signatories to this Agreement, may, with the written approval of all the Banks, become parties to this Agreement and be deemed Tranche A Borrowers for all purposes of this Agreement by executing an instrument substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto (with such changes therein may be approved by the Banks), which instrument shall (i) have attached to it a copy of this Agreement (as the same may have been amended) with a revised Allocation Notice reflecting the participation of such additional investment company and (ii) be accompanied by the documents and instruments required to be delivered by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof, including, without limitation, an opinion of counsel for such Borrower, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel; provided, that the joinder of any additional Borrower shall be effective no earlier than five (5) Business Days following receipt by the Banks of such documents and information requested by the Administrative Agent or any Bank that are reasonably required in order to comply with “know-your-customer” and other anti-terrorism, anti-money laundering and similar rules and regulations, including without limitation the USA PATRIOT Act; and provided, further, that no such additional Borrower shall be added unless each of the Banks consent, except that (A) to the extent an existing Borrower converts to a “master/feeder” structure, no consent shall be required for the master trust in such structure to become a Borrower hereunder after such conversion, provided the converting Borrower ceases to be a Borrower hereunder on or prior to such conversion and provided that such master trust is formed under the laws of a State in the United States and (B) to the extent that an existing Borrower which is a “master trust” is merged into (or transfers all or substantially all of its assets and liabilities to) its feeder fund (the “Former Feeder Fund”), no consent shall be required for such Former Feeder Fund to become a Borrower if in connection with such merger or transfer such Former Feeder Fund shall hold all or substantially all the assets and liabilities of the prior master trust, such Former Feeder Fund is formed under the laws of a State in the United States and, prior to such merger or transfer, such Former Feeder Fund shall have no Debt. Additional Borrowers may be added to this Agreement only once per each calendar quarter. Each new Borrower added to the Credit Facility after the addition of five (5) new Borrowers shall pay a new Borrower’s fee in the amount of $1,500 to the Administrative Agent, provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, waive the requirement to pay such fee. To the extent that the Banks deem that the Permitted Asset Coverage Ratio is insufficient with respect to any Additional Borrower, the Joinder in which such Additional Borrower becomes a Borrower may, with the agreement of such Additional Borrower and each Bank, contain language amending this Agreement to provide for a different Permitted Asset Coverage Ratio with respect to such Additional Borrower.
Parent Guaranty The Parent hereby, jointly and severally, together with the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Subsidiary Guaranty, absolutely and unconditionally guaranties to the holders from time to time of the Notes: (i) the full and prompt payment of the principal of all of the Notes and of the interest thereon at the rate therein stipulated and the Make-Whole Amount (if any), when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration, or otherwise (including (to the extent legally enforceable) interest due on overdue payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount (if any) or interest at the rate set forth in the Notes) and all other amounts from time to time owing by the Issuer under this Agreement and under the Notes (including, without limitation, costs and expenses), (ii) the full and prompt performance and observance by the Issuer of each and all of the obligations, covenants and agreements required to be performed or observed by the Issuer under the terms of the Notes and this Agreement and (iii) the full and prompt payment, upon demand by any holder of the Notes, of all costs and expenses, legal or otherwise (including attorneys’ fees) and such expenses, if any, as shall have been expended or incurred in the protection or enforcement of any right or privilege under the Notes or this Agreement, including, without limitation, in any consultation or action in connection therewith, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 15.1 of this Agreement. The guaranty of the Notes herein provided for is a guaranty of the immediate and timely payment of the principal and interest on the Notes and the Make-Whole Amount (if any) as and when the same are due and payable and shall not be deemed to be a guaranty only of the collectability of such payments and therefore each holder of the Notes may xxx the Parent directly upon such principal, interest and Make-Whole Amount (if any) becoming so due and payable.
