Excluded Subsidiaries (a) The Borrower will not permit any Excluded Subsidiary to (i) own or hold any Lien on any property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party, (ii) incur any Indebtedness that is not Non-Recourse Debt, (iii) enter into any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party that is not expressly permitted by Section 6.09 or (iv) directly or indirectly own any Indebtedness of or Equity Interests in, or have any other investments in, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party.
(b) Each Excluded Subsidiary shall be a Person with respect to which neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Loan Party has any direct or indirect obligation to (i) subscribe for additional Equity Interests, (ii) maintain or preserve such Person's financial condition or to cause such Person to achieve any specified levels of operating results or (iii) except to the extent permitted by Section 6.04, otherwise guarantee performance or payment of any obligations of such Person.
(c) If, at any time, any Excluded Subsidiary fails to meet the requirements set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section, such Subsidiary shall thereafter cease to be an Excluded Subsidiary for purposes of this Agreement and, as of such date, (i) any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Subsidiary Loan Party, (ii) any Liens on the property of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Liens on the property of a Subsidiary Loan Party, (iii) any investments in such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be investments in a Subsidiary Loan Party as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness, investments or Liens are not permitted to be incurred or to exist pursuant to this Agreement, the Borrower shall be in default hereunder) and (iv) the Borrower shall promptly comply with the requirements of Section 5.12 and 5.13 with respect to such Subsidiary.
Domestic Subsidiaries Where Domestic Subsidiaries of the Borrower which are not Credit Parties hereunder (the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries") shall at any time constitute more than (the "Threshold Requirement"):
(i) in any instance for any such Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, five percent (5%) of consolidated assets for the Consolidated Group or five percent (5%) of consolidated revenues for the Consolidated Group, or
(ii) in the aggregate for all such Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, ten percent (10%) of consolidated assets for the Consolidated Group or ten percent (10%) of consolidated revenues for the Consolidated Group, then the Borrower shall (i) promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and promptly cause such Domestic Subsidiary or Subsidiaries to become a Guarantor by execution of a Joinder Agreement, such that immediately after joinder as a Guarantor, the remaining Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries shall not in any instance, or collectively, exceed the Threshold Requirement, (ii) deliver with the Joinder Agreement, supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, corporate formation and organizational documentation and opinions of counsel as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, and (iii) deliver stock certificates and related pledge agreements or pledge joinder agreements evidencing the pledge of 100% of the Voting Stock of all Domestic Subsidiaries (whether or not they are Guarantors) and 65% of the Voting Stock of all Foreign Subsidiaries, together with undated stock transfer powers executed in blank.
Immaterial Subsidiaries No Immaterial Subsidiary (a) owns any assets (other than assets of a de minimis nature), (b) has any liabilities (other than liabilities of a de minimis nature), or (c) engages in any business activity.
Additional Subsidiaries If any additional Subsidiary, other than an Insignificant Subsidiary, a Notes SPV or a Special Purpose Receivables Subsidiary, is formed or acquired after the Sixth ARCA Effective Date, the Borrower will, within ten Business Days after such Subsidiary is formed or acquired, notify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent thereof and cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied with respect to any Equity Interest in such Subsidiary held by a Loan Party and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary owed to a Loan Party. If at any time any Subsidiary that is not then a Loan Party, other than (A) an Insignificant Subsidiary, (B) prior to the PAETEC Notes Redemption Date, a Qualified PAETEC Group Member, (C) a Notes SPV, (D) any Subsidiary listed on Schedule 5.10 or (E) a Special Purpose Receivables Subsidiary, (x) is a wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary and is permitted by applicable law or regulation (without the need to obtain any Governmental Authorization) to Guarantee the Facility Obligations or (y) Guarantees any Loan Party’s obligations in respect of any AC Holdings Bonds or any other Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness created under the Loan Documents), the Borrower shall promptly cause (A) such Subsidiary to Guarantee the Facility Obligations pursuant to the Guarantee Agreement (in the case of any Subsidiary described in clause (y), on terms no less favorable to the Lenders than those applicable under such Guarantee of other Indebtedness) and (B) the other provisions of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary will become a “Guarantor” and “Lien Grantor” for purposes of the Loan Documents. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, form or acquire any Subsidiary (other than Insignificant Subsidiaries and other than (i) any Notes SPV, (ii) prior to the PAETEC Notes Redemption Date, any Qualified PAETEC Group Member and (iii) any Special Purpose Receivables Subsidiary) after the Sixth ARCA Effective Date unless either (x) all of the Equity Interests in such Subsidiary shall be directly held by a Loan Party or (y) such Subsidiary shall have Guaranteed the Facility Obligations pursuant to the Guarantee Agreement and shall have satisfied the other provisions of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement with respect to such Subsidiary. Prior to the PAETEC Notes Redemption Date, the Borrower will not permit any PAETEC Group Member to form or acquire any Subsidiary except for the purpose of reorganizing the organizational structure or form of organization of any of the PAETEC Group Members. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the PAETEC Notes Redemption Date, any Qualified PAETEC Group Member not previously subject to the requirements set forth in this Section 5.10 shall be subject to the requirements set forth in this Section 5.10 as if such Qualified PAETEC Group Member became a Subsidiary on such date.
Inactive Subsidiaries The Inactive Subsidiaries do not (a) have assets with an aggregate book value in excess of $1,000,000, (b) have revenue in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate and (c) conduct any business activities.
Formation or Acquisition of Subsidiaries Notwithstanding and without limiting the negative covenants contained in Sections 7.3 and 7.7 hereof, at the time that Borrower or any Guarantor forms any direct or indirect Subsidiary or acquires any direct or indirect Subsidiary after the Effective Date, Borrower and such Guarantor shall (a) cause such new Subsidiary to provide to Bank a joinder to this Agreement to become a co-borrower hereunder or a Guaranty to become a Guarantor hereunder, together with such appropriate financing statements and/or Control Agreements, all in form and substance satisfactory to Bank (including being sufficient to grant Bank a first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) in and to the assets of such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary), (b) provide to Bank appropriate certificates and powers and financing statements, pledging all of the direct or beneficial ownership interest in such new Subsidiary, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank; and (c) provide to Bank all other documentation in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, including one or more opinions of counsel satisfactory to Bank, which in its opinion is appropriate with respect to the execution and delivery of the applicable documentation referred to above. Any document, agreement, or instrument executed or issued pursuant to this Section 6.13 shall be a Loan Document.
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.
Additional Domestic Subsidiaries Notify the Administrative Agent of the creation or acquisition of any Domestic Subsidiary (including, without limitation, upon the formation of any Domestic Subsidiary that is a Divided LLC) and promptly thereafter (and in any event within thirty (30) days after such creation or acquisition or such later time as may be determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), other than with respect to an Excluded Subsidiary or an Excluded Securitization Subsidiary, cause such Domestic Subsidiary, and cause each direct and indirect parent of such Domestic Subsidiary (if it has not already done so), to (i) become a Global Guarantor by delivering to the Administrative Agent a duly executed joinder agreement or such other document as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate for such purpose, (ii) grant a security interest in all Collateral (subject to the exceptions specified in the Collateral Agreement) owned by such Subsidiary by delivering to the Administrative Agent a duly executed supplement to each Collateral Document or such other document as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate for such purpose and comply with the terms of each Collateral Document, (iii) deliver to the Administrative Agent such documents and certificates referred to in Section 4.01 as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, (iv) deliver to the Administrative Agent such original certificates representing the Pledged Equity or other certificates of such Person accompanied by undated irrevocable stock powers executed in blank, (v) deliver to the Administrative Agent such updated Schedules to the Loan Documents as requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to such Person, and (vi) deliver to the Administrative Agent such other documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, all in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
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.
Exclusion of Immaterial Subsidiaries Solely for the purposes of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred under clause (h), (i) or (l) of Section 7.01, any reference in any such clause to any Subsidiary shall be deemed not to include any Immaterial Subsidiary affected by any event or circumstance referred to in any such clause.
