Subsidiary Indebtedness The Credit Parties will not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Credit Parties (except as set forth in Section 6.3(c)(ii)) and the Pro Rata Additional Borrowers) to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness except: (A) Indebtedness existing as of the Closing Date under industrial development bonds and Indebtedness of Foreign Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount not to exceed $325,000,000 and (B) Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of Indebtedness incurred under clause (A) above; (b) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary owing to a Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary; (c) other Indebtedness (whether secured or unsecured); provided that (i) at the time of incurrence of any Indebtedness under this subsection (c), the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness does not exceed the Priority Debt Basket at such time (determined prior to giving effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness) and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, any Indebtedness under this Agreement shall be considered Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (c); (d) Indebtedness and obligations owing under Hedging Agreements and/or Cash Management Agreements so long as such Hedging Agreements and/or Cash Management Agreements are not entered into for speculative purposes; (e) Guaranty Obligations of any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of Indebtedness of the Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such Indebtedness is permitted to exist or be incurred pursuant to this Section 6.3; (f) obligations of any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with (i) any Permitted Securitization Transaction, to the extent such obligations constitute Indebtedness and (ii) any inventory financing arrangements so long as the aggregate principal amount Indebtedness in respect thereof incurred under this subsection(f)(ii) does not exceed $250,000,000 at any time outstanding; (g) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary consisting of completion guarantees, performance bonds, surety bonds or customs bonds incurred in the ordinary course of business; (h) Indebtedness owed to any Person (including obligations in respect of letters of credit, bank guarantees and similar instruments for the benefit of such Person) providing workers’ compensation, social security, health, disability or other employee benefits or property, casualty or liability insurance, pursuant to reimbursement or indemnification obligations to such Person, in each case incurred in the ordinary course of business; (i) Indebtedness owed in respect of any overdrafts and related liabilities arising from treasury, depositary and cash management services or in connection with any automated clearinghouse transfers of funds; provided that such Indebtedness shall be repaid in full within five Business Days of the incurrence thereof; (j) Indebtedness in respect of judgments that do not constitute an Event of Default under Section 7.1(i); (k) Indebtedness consisting of the financing of insurance premiums with the providers of such insurance or their Affiliates; and (l) Indebtedness created under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.
Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness The Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness, other than (A) Indebtedness of any Subsidiary of the Company consisting of (i) Guarantees by such Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Company under Credit Facilities or (ii) Liens granted by such Subsidiary to secure such Guarantee or such Indebtedness of the Company, in an aggregate principal amount (without duplication), when taken together with the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness secured by Liens on the property or assets (which includes capital stock) of the Company and its Subsidiaries Incurred pursuant to the second sentence and clause (1) of the first paragraph of Section 3.02, not to exceed the Permitted Amount at the time of Incurrence of such Guarantee or Lien; (B) Indebtedness of any Designated Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of such Designated Subsidiary, provided that, with respect to this clause (B) only, no portion of such Indebtedness is recourse to the Company or any of its other Subsidiaries; (C) Acquired Indebtedness; (D) Indebtedness existing on the Issue Date of any Subsidiary of the Company; (E) Indebtedness of any Subsidiary of the Company issued in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used or will be used to extend, refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund, other Indebtedness that was permitted by this Supplemental Indenture to be Incurred under clause (C) or (D) of this Section 3.01; or (F) Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount, at anytime outstanding, not to exceed $250.0 million. The maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to this Section 3.01 shall not be deemed to be exceeded with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness due solely to the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies.
Additional Restricted Subsidiaries Pursuant to Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement, certain Restricted Subsidiaries of the Loan Parties that were not in existence or not Restricted Subsidiaries on the date of the Credit Agreement are required to enter in this Agreement as Subsidiary Parties upon becoming Restricted Subsidiaries. Upon execution and delivery by the Collateral Agent and a Restricted Subsidiary of a Security Agreement Supplement, such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Party herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this Agreement.
Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 hereof or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Company may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a Default. Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07 hereof. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the Company will be in default of such covenant. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.
Intercompany Indebtedness The Company shall not create, incur, assume or otherwise become or remain directly or indirectly liable with respect to any Indebtedness arising from loans from any Subsidiary to the Company unless (a) such Indebtedness is unsecured and (b) such Indebtedness shall be expressly subordinate to the payment in full in cash of the Obligations on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
any Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary The Issuer may designate any Subsidiary of the Issuer (including any existing Subsidiary and any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary unless such Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries owns any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or owns or holds any Lien on, any property of, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than solely any Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated); provided that (1) any Unrestricted Subsidiary must be an entity of which the Equity Interests entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes that may be cast by all Equity Interests having ordinary voting power for the election of directors or Persons performing a similar function are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Issuer; (2) such designation complies with Section 10.10; and
Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries The Borrower Representative may at any time after the Closing Date designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and subsequently re-designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, if other than for purposes of designating a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary that is a Receivables Subsidiary in connection with the establishment of a Qualified Receivables Financing (i) the Interest Coverage Ratio of UK Holdco and the Restricted Subsidiaries for the most recently ended Reference Period preceding such designation or re-designation, as applicable, would have been, on a Pro Forma Basis, at least the lesser of (x) 2.00 to 1.00 and (y) the Interest Coverage Ratio as of the most recently ended Reference Period and (ii) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom. The designation of any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Closing Date shall constitute an Investment by the applicable Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the applicable Loan Party’s or Restricted Subsidiary’s investment therein; provided that if any subsidiary (a “Subject Subsidiary”) being designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary has a subsidiary that was previously designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (the “Previously Designated Unrestricted Subsidiary”) in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Investment of such Subject Subsidiary in such Previously Designated Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not be taken into account, and shall be excluded, in determining whether the Subject Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary hereunder. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (x) the incurrence at the time of designation of Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time, and (y) a return on any Investment by the applicable Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary in Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value at the date of such designation of such Loan Party’s or Restricted Subsidiary’s Investment in such Subsidiary. For the avoidance of doubt, neither a Borrower nor UK Holdco shall be permitted to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary. At any time a Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary hereunder, the Borrower Representative shall cause such Subsidiary to be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (or any similar applicable term) under the Senior Secured Notes.
Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries The Company shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than a Guarantor or the Issuer, to guarantee the payment of any First Lien Obligations, including any Indebtedness (or any interest on such Indebtedness) under the Senior Credit Facilities, the NXP Notes and the Existing Secured Notes unless: (1) such Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor, if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes; (2) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and shall not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against any Guarantor or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Person under its Guarantee or otherwise; and (3) such Restricted Subsidiary shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that: (A) such Guarantee has been duly executed and authorized; and (B) such Guarantee constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including, without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity.
Subsidiary Debt Permit any of its Subsidiaries (other than any Loan Party) to create or suffer to exist, any Debt other than: (i) Debt existing on the Execution Date and disclosed to the Lenders prior to the date hereof (the “Existing Debt”), and any Debt extending the maturity of, or refunding, renewing or refinancing, in whole or in part, the Existing Debt; provided, that the principal amount of such Existing Debt shall not be increased above the principal amount thereof outstanding immediately prior to such extension, refunding, renewal or refinancing (other than by an amount equal to the premium thereon, plus other reasonable amounts paid, and fees and expenses incurred in connection with such extension, refunding, renewal or refinancing), and the direct and contingent obligors therefor shall not be increased, as a result of or in connection with such extension, refunding, renewal or refinancing; (ii) Debt of any Person that becomes a Subsidiary after the date hereof, and extensions, refundings, renewals and refinancings of any such Debt that do not increase the outstanding principal amount thereof (other than by an amount equal to the premium thereon, plus other reasonable amounts paid, fees and expenses incurred in connection with such extension, refunding, renewal or refinancing); provided, that such Debt exists at the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary of such Loan Party and is not created in contemplation of or in connection with such Person becoming a Subsidiary of such Loan Party; (iii) Debt secured by Liens of the type described in and to the extent permitted by Section 5.02(a)(iv) through (ix); (iv) Debt in an aggregate outstanding principal amount at any time not exceeding $500.0 million; (v) other Debt (whether secured or unsecured) to the extent the aggregate principal amount of such Debt together with Debt secured by Liens permitted under Section 5.02(a)(iii) does not exceed an amount equal to the greater of (x) $750.0 million and (y) 10% of Consolidated Tangible Assets of the Reporting Group; (vi) Debt of any Subsidiary to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof; and (vii) endorsements of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, if any Debt is denominated in a foreign currency, no fluctuation in currency values shall result in a breach of this Section 5.02(e).
Permitted Indebtedness Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary ---------------------- will create, incur or assume any Indebtedness other than: (a) Indebtedness represented by or incurred under the Notes and the Purchase Agreement and the Revolving Credit Facility; (b) Indebtedness incurred to prepay or repay in full the remaining outstanding principal amount of Notes and all other amounts due thereon or under the Purchase Agreement; (c) Indebtedness existing on the Closing Date and identified on the Disclosure Schedule; (d) Indebtedness incurred solely as an extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement of Indebtedness of the Company or of its Subsidiaries under clause (iii) above (but excluding any Indebtedness under clause (iii) above to the extent such Indebtedness is repaid with the proceeds from the sale of the Notes and Warrants), provided that any such extension, renewal or refinancing (A) shall be on terms which on balance are substantially as favorable to the Company (or the relevant Subsidiary) as the terms of such existing Indebtedness (other than changes in the amount of the interest rate and other than the imposition of additional Liens permitted by Section 9.10(f) hereof) and (B) shall not be in a greater principal amount or have a shorter average life or earlier maturity than such existing Indebtedness; (e) Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount outstanding not exceeding $20,000,000 incurred solely to finance the purchase price of additional towers and related facilities and equipment; (f) Interest Rate Protection Agreements required by the Revolving Credit Facility or incurred for hedging purposes in the ordinary course of business; and (g) Additional Indebtedness in an amount which , together with sale and leaseback obligations permitted under Section 9.11, does not exceed $2,000,000.
