Transfer, Amendment and Assignment No transfer, amendment, waiver, supplement, assignment or other modification of this Transaction shall be permitted by either party unless each of Standard & Poor's Ratings Service, a division of The XxXxxx-Xxxx Companies, Inc ("S&P") and Xxxxx'x Investors Service, Inc. ("MOODY'S"), has been provided notice of the same and confirms in writing (including by facsimile transmission) that it will not downgrade, qualify, withdraw or otherwise modify its then-current ratings on the Certificates issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the "CERTIFICATES").
Participations and Assignments (a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Persons that extends secured commercial loans in its ordinary course of business and has assets or capital of at least $100,000,000 (other than (i) a natural person or (ii) any Defaulting Lender or its wholly-owned subsidiaries or its other Affiliates) (any such Person, an “Assignee”) all or any portion of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loans and also such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower (all of which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and shall not be required for an assignment by a Lender to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender). Except as Administrative Agent may otherwise agree (and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents in writing, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), any such assignment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or, if less, the remaining Loan held by the assigning Lender. Borrower and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Assignee until Administrative Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (an “Assignment Agreement”) executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing fee of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000). No assignment may be made to any Person if at the time of such assignment Borrower would be obligated to pay any greater amount under Sections 3.1 or 3.3 to the Assignee than Borrower is then obligated to pay to the assigning Lender under such Sections (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, Borrower will not be required to pay such greater amounts). Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section 12.15 shall be treated as the sale of a participation hereunder. Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent to any assignment requiring its consent hereunder unless Borrower has expressly objected to such assignment within three (3) Business Days after notice thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) no consent of Borrower or Administrative Agent shall be required for any assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (provided that no assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or its wholly-owned subsidiaries or its other Affiliates) and (y) the consent of each Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).
DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS AND OBLIGATIONS Among other indebtedness and obligations which may be owing by Borrower to Bank, Borrower is indebted to Bank pursuant to a loan arrangement dated as of June 11, 2003, evidenced by, among other documents, a certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of June 11, 2003 between Borrower and Bank, as amended from time to time (as amended, the "Loan Agreement"). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Loan Agreement.
Succession and Assignment This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties named herein and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other Party.
Parties Bound; Assignment This Guaranty shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns and legal representatives; provided, however, that Guarantor may not, without the prior written consent of Lender, assign any of its rights, powers, duties or obligations hereunder.
Permitted Assignments Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities ("PURCHASERS") all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment, all Loans owing to it, all of its participation interests in existing Letters of Credit, and its obligation to participate in additional Letters of Credit hereunder) in accordance with the provisions of this SECTION 13.3. Each assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, ratable percentage of all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Such assignment shall be effected through an Assignment Agreement substantially in the form of EXHIBIT A hereto and shall not be permitted hereunder unless such assignment is either for all of such Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents or, without the prior written consent of the Agent, involves Loans and Commitments in an aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000. The consent of the Agent and, prior to the occurrence of a Default or Unmatured Default, the Borrower (which consent, in each such case, shall not be unreasonably withheld), shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent, assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder.
Definitions and Assumptions For purposes of this Agreement: (i) the terms “excess parachute payment” and “parachute payments” shall have the meanings assigned to them in Section 280G of the Code, and such “parachute payments” shall be valued as provided therein; (ii) present value shall be calculated in accordance with Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code; (iii) the term “Base Period Income” means an amount equal to Executive’s “annualized includible compensation for the base period” as defined in Section 280G(d)(1) of the Code; (iv) “Agreement Benefits” shall mean the payments and benefits to be paid or provided pursuant to this Agreement; (v) for purposes of the opinion of the National Advisor, the value of any noncash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by the Company’s independent auditors in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code, which determination shall be evidenced in a certificate of such auditors addressed to the Company and Executive; and (vi) Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income tax and employment taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income and employment taxation, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation in the state or locality of Executive’s domicile (determined in both cases in the calendar year in which the Date of Termination occurs or the notice described in Section 4.5(b) above is given, whichever is earlier), net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that may be obtained from the deduction of such state and local taxes.
Amendment and Assignment This Agreement may be altered, amended or modified, including the addition of any extra policy provisions, by a written instrument signed by the Employer and the Employee. Either party may, subject to the limitations of Article IV, assign its interest and obligations under this Agreement, provided, however, that any assignment will be subject to the terms of this Agreement.
Sale and Assignment On the terms and conditions set forth herein, effective on and as of the Assignment Date, the Assignor hereby sells, assigns and transfers to the Assignee, and the Assignee hereby purchases and assumes from the Assignor, all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in and to, and all of the obligations of the Assignor in respect of, the Assigned Interest. Such sale, assignment and transfer is without recourse and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, without representation or warranty.
SUBSEQUENT ASSIGNMENTS After the Effective Date, the Assignee shall have the right pursuant to Section 12.3.1 of the Credit Agreement to assign the rights which are assigned to the Assignee hereunder to any entity or person, provided that (i) any such subsequent assignment does not violate any of the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents or any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction or decree and that any consent required under the terms of the Loan Documents has been obtained and (ii) unless the prior written consent of the Assignor is obtained, the Assignee is not thereby released from its obligations to the Assignor hereunder, if any remain unsatisfied, including, without limitation, its obligations under Sections 4, 5 and 8 hereof.
