Certain Actions Permitted Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (a) each Agent may make such demands or file such claims in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations or Junior Priority Obligations, as applicable, owed to such Agent and the Creditors represented thereby as are necessary to prevent the waiver or bar of such claims under applicable statutes of limitations or other statutes, court orders, or rules of procedure at any time, (b) in any Insolvency Proceeding commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Credit Party, the Junior Priority Agent or the Junior Priority Creditors may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the Junior Priority Obligations, (c) the Junior Priority Creditors shall be entitled to file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Junior Priority Creditors, including without limitation any claims secured by the Collateral, if any, in each case if not otherwise in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, (d) the Junior Priority Creditors shall be entitled to file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Credit Parties arising under either the Bankruptcy Law or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case if not otherwise in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, (e) the Junior Priority Creditors shall be entitled to file any proof of claim and other filings and make any arguments and motions in order to preserve or protect its Liens on the Collateral that are, in each case, not otherwise in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Junior Priority Obligations and the Collateral and (f) the Junior Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditor may exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral after the termination of the Standstill Period to the extent permitted by Section 2.3 above.
Certain Permitted Transfers The restrictions in this Section 4 will not apply with respect to any Transfer of Carried Shares made (i) pursuant to applicable laws of descent and distribution or to such Person’s legal guardian in the case of any mental incapacity or among such Person’s Family Group, (ii) in connection with the Company’s initial Public Offering of the Common Shares upon the underwriters’ exercise of their option to purchase additional Common Shares to the extent set forth in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-120444) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 12, 2004, as amended, or (iii) at such time as the Investors sell Common Shares to any unaffiliated third party, but in the case of this clause (iii) only an amount of shares (the “Transfer Amount”) equal to the lesser of (A) the number of Vested Shares owned by Executive and (B) the number of Common Shares owned by Executive multiplied by a fraction (the “Transfer Fraction”), the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares sold by the Investors in such sale and the denominator of which is the total number of Common Shares held by the Investors prior to the sale; provided that, if at the time of such sale of Common Shares by the Investors, Executive chooses not to Transfer the Transfer Amount, Executive shall retain the right to Transfer an amount of Common Shares at a future date equal to the lesser of (x) the number of Vested Shares owned by Executive at such future date and (y) the number of Common Shares owned by Executive at such future date multiplied by the Transfer Fraction; provided further that the restrictions contained in this Section 4 will continue to be applicable to the Carried Shares after any Transfer of the type referred to in clause (i) above and the transferees of such Carried Shares must agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. Any transferee of Carried Shares pursuant to a Transfer in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(b)(i) is herein referred to as a “Permitted Transferee.” Upon the Transfer of Carried Shares pursuant to this Section 4(b), the transferring holder of Carried Shares will deliver a written notice (a “Transfer Notice”) to the Company. In the case of a Transfer pursuant to clause (i) hereof, the Transfer Notice will disclose in reasonable detail the identity of the Permitted Transferee(s).
Material Contracts; Burdensome Restrictions All material contracts relating to the business operations of each Loan Party and each Subsidiary of any Loan Party, including all material employee benefit plans and Labor Contracts are valid, binding and enforceable upon such Loan Party or Subsidiary and each of the other parties thereto in accordance with their respective terms, and there is no default thereunder, to the Loan Parties' knowledge, with respect to parties other than such Loan Party or Subsidiary. None of the Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries is bound by any contractual obligation, or subject to any restriction in any organization document or any requirement of Law which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.
Title to Collateral; Perfection; Permitted Liens (a) Borrower is now, and will at all times in the future be, the sole owner of all the Collateral, except for items of Equipment which are leased to Borrower. The Collateral now is and will remain free and clear of any and all liens, charges, security interests, encumbrances and adverse claims, except for Permitted Liens. Silicon now has, and will continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable security interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to the Permitted Liens, and Borrower will at all times defend Silicon and the Collateral against all claims of others.
Termination of Non-Permitted Liens In the event that Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall become aware or be notified by the Lenders of the existence of any outstanding Lien against any Property of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, which Lien is not a Permitted Lien, Borrower shall use its best efforts to promptly terminate or cause the termination of such Lien.
No Claims Permitted Employee waives Executive’s right to file any charge or complaint against Employer arising out of Executive’s employment with or separation from Employer before any federal, state or local court or any state or local administrative agency, except where such waivers are prohibited by law.
TITLE TO COLLATERAL; PERMITTED LIENS Borrower is now, and will at all times in the future be, the sole owner of all the Collateral, except for items of Equipment which are leased by Borrower. The Collateral now is and will remain free and clear of any and all liens, charges, security interests, encumbrances and adverse claims, except for Permitted Liens. Silicon now has, and will continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable security interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to the Permitted Liens, and Borrower will at all times defend Silicon and the Collateral against all claims of others. None of the Collateral now is or will be affixed to any real property in such a manner, or with such intent, as to become a fixture. Borrower is not and will not become a lessee under any real property lease pursuant to which the lessor may obtain any rights in any of the Collateral and no such lease now prohibits, restrains, impairs or will prohibit, restrain or impair Borrower's right to remove any Collateral from the leased premises. Whenever any Collateral is located upon premises in which any third party has an interest (whether as owner, mortgagee, beneficiary under a deed of trust, lien or otherwise), Borrower shall, whenever requested by Silicon, use its best efforts to cause such third party to execute and deliver to Silicon, in form acceptable to Silicon, such waivers and subordinations as Silicon shall specify, so as to ensure that Silicon's rights in the Collateral are, and will continue to be, superior to the rights of any such third party. Borrower will keep in full force and effect, and will comply with all the terms of, any lease of real property where any of the Collateral now or in the future may be located.
Permitted Actions Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a), a Second Lien Creditor may (a) file a proof of claim or statement of interest, vote on a plan of reorganization (including a vote to accept or reject a plan of partial or complete liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, composition, or extension), and make other filings, arguments, and motions, with respect to the Second Lien Obligations and the Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding commenced by or against any Obligor; (b) take action to create, perfect, preserve, or protect (but not enforce) its Lien on the Collateral, so long as such actions are not adverse to the priority status in accordance with this Agreement of Liens on the Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations or the First Lien Creditors’ rights to exercise remedies or otherwise not in accordance with this Agreement; (c) file necessary pleadings in opposition to a claim objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of a Second Lien Obligation or a Lien securing the Second Lien Obligation; (d) join (but not exercise any control over) a judicial foreclosure or Lien enforcement proceeding with respect to the Collateral initiated by the First Lien Agent, to the extent that such action could not reasonably be expected to interfere materially with the Enforcement Action, but no Second Lien Creditor may receive any Proceeds thereof unless expressly permitted herein; (e) bid for or purchase Collateral at any public, private, or judicial foreclosure upon such Collateral initiated by any First Lien Creditor, or any sale of Collateral during an Insolvency Proceeding; provided that such bid may not include a “credit bid” in respect of any Second Lien Obligations unless the net cash Proceeds of such bid are otherwise sufficient to cause the Discharge of First Lien Obligations and are applied to cause the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations, in each case, at the closing of such bid; (f) accelerate any Second Lien Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Second Lien Documents; and (g) seek adequate protection during an Insolvency Proceeding to the extent expressly permitted by Section 6, in the case of each of clauses (a) through (g) in a manner not inconsistent with the other terms of this Agreement. Except as expressly provided for herein, (1) no provision hereof shall be construed to prohibit the payment by a Borrower of regularly scheduled principal, interest and other amounts owed in respect of the Second Lien Obligations so long as the receipt thereof is not the direct or indirect result of any Enforcement Action, and (2) unless and until the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations shall have occurred, the sole right of the Second Lien Creditors with respect to the Collateral is to hold a lien on the Collateral pursuant to the Second Lien Collateral Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the Proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations shall have occurred.
