Interest Rate Risk Management Instruments (a) All interest rate swaps, caps, floors and option agreements and other interest rate risk management arrangements to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of their properties or assets may be bound were entered into in the Ordinary Course of Business and in accordance with prudent banking practice and applicable rules, regulations and policies of Company Regulatory Agencies and with counterparties believed to be financially responsible at the time, and are legal, valid and binding obligations enforceable in accordance with their terms (except as may be limited by general principles of equity, whether applied in a court of law or a court of equity, and by bankruptcy, insolvency and similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally), and are in full force and effect. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has duly performed in all material respects all of its obligations thereunder to the extent that such obligations to perform have accrued; and, to the Knowledge of the Company, there are no breaches, violations or defaults or allegations or assertions of such by any party thereunder.
Hedging (a) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, enter into any Interest Hedge Agreements (subject in each case to (i) satisfaction of the Rating Condition and (ii) unless the cost of such Interest Hedge Agreement is paid in full at the time it is executed, the prior written consent of the Majority Lenders). The Borrower will not amend or replace any Interest Hedge Agreement unless the Rating Condition shall have been satisfied in connection with such amendment or replacement and the Majority Lenders have provided their prior written consent thereto. The Borrower (or the Services Provider on behalf of the Borrower) shall promptly provide written notice of entry into, and the amendment or replacement of, any Interest Hedge Agreement to the Agents and the Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower (or the Services Provider on behalf of the Borrower) shall not enter into any Interest Hedge Agreement (A) unless it obtains written advice of counsel that (1) the written terms of the derivative directly relate to the Collateral Loans and (2) such derivative reduces the interest rate and/or foreign exchange risks related to the Collateral Loans and the Loans and (B) that would cause the Borrower to be considered a “commodity pool” as defined in Section 1a(10) of the Commodity Exchange Act unless (i) the Services Provider, and no other party, including but not limited to the Collateral Agent, the Custodian and the Administrative Agent, is registered as a “commodity pool operator” as defined in Section 1(a)(11) of the Commodity Exchange Act and “commodity trading advisor” as defined in Section 1(a)(12) of the Commodity Exchange Act with the CFTC or (ii) with respect to the Borrower as the commodity pool, the Services Provider would be eligible for an exemption from registration as a commodity pool operator and commodity trading advisor and all conditions for obtaining the exemption have been satisfied. The Services Provider agrees that for so long as the Borrower is a commodity pool, the Services Provider will take all actions necessary to ensure ongoing compliance with, as the case may be, either (x) the applicable exemption from registration as a commodity pool operator and/or a commodity trading advisor with respect to the Borrower or (y) the applicable registration requirements as a commodity pool operator and/or a commodity trading advisor with respect to the Borrower, and will in each case take any other actions required as a commodity pool operator and/or a commodity trading advisor with respect to the Borrower.
(b) Each Interest Hedge Agreement shall contain appropriate limited recourse and non-petition provisions equivalent (mutatis mutandis) to those contained in Section 12.15. Each Interest Hedge Counterparty shall be required to satisfy, at the time that any Interest Hedge Agreement to which it is a party is entered into, the then-current S&P criteria for hedge counterparties with respect to any Interest Hedge Agreements shall be subject to the Priority of Payments specified in Section 9.1(a) and Section 6.4. Each Interest Hedge Agreement shall contain an acknowledgement by the Interest Hedge Counterparty that the obligations of the Borrower to the Interest Hedge Counterparty under the relevant Interest Hedge Agreement shall be payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments specified in Section 9.1(a) and Section 6.4 and the Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide that it may not be terminated due to the occurrence of an Event of Default until liquidation of the Collateral has commenced.
