Consequences of Event of Default (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Company will promptly deliver written notice thereof to the Holder. If one or more Events of Default will have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it will be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority), then, and in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 2.4(g) or Section 2.4(h) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), unless the principal of this Note will have already become due and payable, the Holder may, by notice in writing to the Company, declare 100% of the outstanding principal of this Note to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same will become and will automatically be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 2.4(g) or Section 2.4(h) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries occurs and is continuing, 100% of the outstanding principal of this Note will become and will automatically be immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the Holder.
(b) Subsection (a) above, however, is subject to the conditions that if, at any time after the outstanding principal of this Note will have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the monies due will have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company will pay or will deposit with the Holder a sum sufficient to pay the outstanding principal of this Note that will have become due otherwise than by acceleration, and if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) any and all existing Events of Default under this Note, other than the nonpayment of the principal on this Note that will have become due solely by such acceleration, will have been cured or waived, then and in every such case the Holder, by written notice to the Company, may waive all defaults or Events of Default with respect to this Note and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and such default will cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Note; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment will extend to or will affect any subsequent Event of Default, or will impair any right consequent thereon.
Consequences of Events of Default (a) If an Event of Default of the type described in Section 3.1(a) or (b) has occurred and continued for 15 days or any other Event of Default has occurred, the interest rate on this Note will increase immediately by an increment of two percentage points to the extent permitted by law. Thereafter, until such time as no Event of Default exists, the interest rate on this Note will increase automatically at the end of each succeeding fiscal quarter by an additional increment of one percentage points to the extent permitted by law (but in no event will the interest rate exceed 18 percent per annum). Any increase of the interest rate resulting from the operation of this Section 3.2(a) will terminate as of the close of business on the date on which no Events of Default exist (subject to subsequent increases pursuant to this Section).
(b) If an Event of Default of the type described in Section 3.1(d) has occurred, the principal amount of this Note (together with all accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable in connection therewith) will become immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the Holder, and the Companies will immediately pay to the Holder all amounts due and payable with respect to this Note.
(c) If an Event of Default of the type described in Section 3.1(a) or (b) has occurred and continued for 15 days and if an Event of Default of the type described in Section 3.1(b) has occurred and continued for 30 days, or any other Event of Default (other than under Section 3.1(d)) has occurred, the Holder may declare all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note (together with all accrued interest thereon and all other amounts due in connection therewith) due and payable and demand immediate payment of all or any portion of such amount. If the Holder demands immediate payment and all or any portion of the amounts due under this Note, the Companies will immediately pay to the Holder all amounts demanded to be paid with respect to this Note.
(d) The Holder will also have any other rights which it may have been afforded under any contract or agreement at any time and any other rights which the Holder may have pursuant to applicable law.
(e) Each Company hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand and notice of protest and demand, dishonor and nonpayment of this Note, and expressly agrees that this Note, or any payment hereunder, may be extended from time to time and that the Holder may accept security for this Note or release security for this Note, all without in any way affecting the liability of the Companies hereunder.
Consequences of Events of Default and Corrective Action If an Event of Default occurs, the Province may, at any time, take one or more of the following actions:
(a) initiate any action the Province considers necessary in order to facilitate the successful continuation or completion of the Project;
(b) provide the Recipient with an opportunity to remedy the Event of Default;
(c) suspend the payment of Funds for such period as the Province determines appropriate;
(d) reduce the amount of the Funds;
(e) cancel further instalments of Funds;
(f) demand from the Recipient the payment of any Funds remaining in the possession or under the control of the Recipient;
(g) demand from the Recipient the payment of an amount equal to any Funds the Recipient used, but did not use in accordance with the Agreement;
(h) demand from the Recipient the payment of an amount equal to any Funds the Province provided to the Recipient; and
(i) terminate the Agreement at any time, including immediately, without liability, penalty or costs to the Province upon giving Notice to the Recipient.
Consequences of Default Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, as defined in the Revenue Sharing Agreement:
6.1 Any unpaid amounts under section 2 shall bear interest at one and one-quarter percent (1.25%) per month;
Notification of default Each Borrower will notify the Agent as soon as that Borrower becomes aware of:
(a) the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default; or
(b) any matter which indicates that an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default may have occurred, and will keep the Agent fully up-to-date with all developments.
Consequences of non-compliance If a beneficiary breaches any of its obligations under this Article, the grant may be reduced (see Article 43). Such breaches may also lead to any of the other measures described in Chapter 6.
Covenant to Comply with Applicable Laws Upon Repurchase of Notes In connection with any repurchase offer, the Company will, if required:
(a) comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act;
(b) file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act; and
(c) otherwise comply with all federal and state securities laws in connection with any offer by the Company to repurchase the Notes; in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under this Article 15 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified in this Article 15.
Notification of Event of Default Borrower shall notify Agent immediately of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
Notification of Defaults and Events of Default Each Lender hereby agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees that upon receipt of any notice under this §14.10 it shall promptly notify the other Lenders of the existence of such Default or Event of Default.
