Common use of Consequences of an Event of Default Clause in Contracts

Consequences of an Event of Default. If an Event of Default, other than a bankruptcy default with respect to any Issuer, occurs and is continuing under the indenture, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Main Issuer (and to the Trustee if the notice is given by the holders), may declare the principal of and accrued interest on the notes to be immediately due and payable. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal and accrued interest will become immediately due and payable. If a bankruptcy default occurs with respect to the Main Issuer, Co-Issuer or any other Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary, the principal of and accrued interest on the notes then outstanding will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if the notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their stated maturity, in each case, as a result of an Event of Default (including, without limitation, an Event of Default under clause (7) of the definition thereof (including the acceleration of any portion of the notes by operation of law)), the greater of (i) the Applicable Premium and (ii) the amount by which the applicable redemption price set forth in the table under “—Optional Redemption” exceeds the principal amount of the notes (the “Redemption Price Premium”), as applicable, with respect to an optional redemption of the notes shall also be due and payable as though the notes had been optionally redeemed on the date of such acceleration and shall constitute part of the Obligations with respect to the notes in view of the impracticability and difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each holder’s lost profits as a result thereof. If the Redemption Price Premium becomes due and payable, it shall be deemed to be principal of the notes, including for purposes of a Wilpinjong Mandatory Offer, and interest shall accrue on the full principal amount of the notes (including the Redemption Price Premium) from and after the applicable triggering event, including in connection with an Event of Default specified under clause (7) of the definition thereof. Any Redemption Price Premium payable above shall be presumed to be liquidated damages sustained by each holder as the result of the acceleration of the notes and the Issuers and the Wilpinjong Credit Parties to the extent they provide guarantees for the notes pursuant to “—Guarantees” agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The premium shall also be payable in the event the notes or the Indenture are satisfied, released or discharged through foreclosure, whether by judicial proceeding, deed in lieu of foreclosure, sale or collection of Collateral or by any other means, or in connection with the restructuring, reorganization or compromise of the obligations by a plan of reorganization or otherwise. IN THE INDENTURE, THE ISSUERS, AND TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE, THE WILPINJONG CREDIT PARTIES IN ANY APPLICABLE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, EXPRESSLY WAIVE (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Issuers and if applicable, the Wilpinjong Credit Parties will expressly agree (to the fullest extent they may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Redemption Price Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business entities ably represented by counsel; (B) the Redemption Price Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time acceleration occurs; (C) there has been a course of conduct between holders and the Issuer giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Redemption Price Premium; and (D) the Issuers shall be estopped from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Issuers and if applicable, the Wilpinjong Credit Parties expressly acknowledge that their agreement to pay the Redemption Price Premium to holders as herein described was a material inducement to investors to acquire the notes. Notwithstanding anything in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, in the event the Wilpinjong Mandatory Offer is consummated, no Applicable Redemption Price Premium shall be due and payable with respect to any notes tendered and exchanged pursuant to the Wilpinjong Mandatory Offer. Any notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take any other action (a “Noteholder Direction”) provided by any one or more holders (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such holder delivered to the Main Issuer and the Trustee that such holder is not (or, in the case such holder is DTC or its nominee, that such holder is being instructed solely by beneficial owners that are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction relating to the delivery of a notice of Default (a “Default Direction”) shall be deemed a continuing representation until the resulting Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist or the notes are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder is deemed, at the time of providing a Noteholder Direction, to covenant to provide the Main Issuer with such other information as the Main Issuer may reasonably request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such noteholder’s Position Representation within five business days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). In any case in which the holder is DTC or its nominee, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the beneficial owner of the notes in lieu of DTC or its nominee and DTC shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Position Representation and Verification Covenant in delivering its direction to the Trustee. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the notes, the Main Issuer determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe a Directing Holder was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Main Issuer has initiated litigation with a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation, and seeking to invalidate any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to such Event of Default shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the notes, the Issuers provide to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that a Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant, the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant. Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such holder’s participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if, without the participation of such holder, the percentage of notes held by the remaining holders that provided such Noteholder Direction would have been insufficient to validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio, with the effect that such Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred, any acceleration voided and the Trustee shall be deemed not to have received such Noteholder Direction or any notice of such Default or Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything in the preceding two paragraphs to the contrary, any Noteholder Direction delivered to the Trustee in connection with a Default under clauses (3), (4), (5), (6) or (9) during the pendency of an Event of Default under clause (7) as a result of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall not require compliance with the two immediately preceding paragraphs. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Noteholder Direction delivered to it in accordance with the Indenture, shall have no duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any Position Representation, enforce compliance with any Verification Covenant, verify any statements in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments, Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise. The Trustee shall have no liability to the Main Issuer, any holder or any other Person in acting in good faith on a Noteholder Direction. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes by written notice to the Main Issuer and to the Trustee may waive all past defaults and rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences if:
