Grant of Security Interest/Remedies To secure its obligations under this Agreement and to the extent Seller delivers the Collateral Requirement, as applicable, hereunder, Seller hereby grants to Buyer, as the secured party, a first priority security interest in, and lien on (and right of setoff against), and assignment of, all such Collateral Requirement posted with Buyer in the form of cash or Letter of Credit and any and all proceeds resulting therefrom or the liquidation thereof, whether now or hereafter held by, on behalf of, or for the benefit of, Buyer. Within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Collateral Requirement, Seller agrees to take such action as Buyer reasonably requires in order to perfect a first-priority security interest in, and lien on (and right of setoff against), such Collateral Requirement and any and all proceeds resulting therefrom or from the liquidation thereof. Upon or any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, an Early Termination Date or an occasion provided for in this Agreement where Buyer is authorized to retain all or a portion of the Collateral Requirement, Buyer may do any one or more of the following: (a) exercise any of the rights and remedies of a secured party with respect to the Collateral Requirement, as applicable, including any such rights and remedies under Law then in effect; (b) exercise its rights of setoff against any and all property of Seller in the possession of the Buyer or Buyer’s agent; (c) draw on any outstanding Letter of Credit issued for its benefit or retain any cash deposit; and (d) liquidate the Collateral Requirement then held by or for the benefit of Buyer free from any claim or right of any nature whatsoever of Seller, including any equity or right of purchase or redemption by Seller. Buyer shall apply the proceeds of the collateral realized upon the exercise of any such rights or remedies to reduce Seller’s obligations under the Agreement (Seller remaining liable for any amounts owing to Buyer after such application), subject to the Buyer’s obligation to return any surplus proceeds remaining after such obligations are satisfied in full.
Impairment of Security Interest (a) Subject to Sections 4.27(b) and (c), the Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, take or knowingly or negligently omit to take, any action which action or omission might or would have the result of materially impairing any security interest over any of the assets comprising the Collateral for the benefit of the Holders (including the priority thereof), and the Parent will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, grant to any Person other than the Collateral Agent or the International Security Agent (as applicable), for the benefit of the Holders and the other beneficiaries described in the Security Documents, any interest whatsoever in any of the Collateral; provided the Company and the Guarantors may incur Permitted Collateral Liens. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 4.27 will restrict the discharge and release of the security interest with respect to the Collateral in accordance with this Indenture or the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement.
(b) At the direction of the Company and without the consent of the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent or the International Security Agent (as applicable) may from time to time enter into one or more amendments to the Security Documents to: (i) cure any ambiguity, mistakes, omission, defect or inconsistency therein; (ii) provide for any Permitted Collateral Liens; (iii) add to the Collateral for the benefit of the Holders; or (iv) make any other change thereto that does not impair any security interest over any of the assets comprising the Collateral or otherwise adversely affect the Holders in any material respect; provided, however, that, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, no Security Document may be amended, extended, renewed, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified or replaced, unless contemporaneously with such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or renewal, the Company delivers to the Trustee:
(i) a solvency opinion, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, from an Independent Financial Advisor confirming the solvency of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to any transactions related to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement;
(ii) a certificate from the board of directors or chief financial officer of the relevant obligor (acting in good faith), in the form set forth as an exhibit to this Indenture, that confirms the solvency of the Person granting such Lien after giving effect to any transaction related to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement; or
(iii) an Opinion of Counsel, in form satisfactory to the Trustee confirming that, after giving effect to any transactions related to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement, the Lien or Liens securing the Notes created under the Security Documents as so amended, extended, renewed, restated, supplemented, modified or replaced remain valid and perfected Liens not otherwise subject to any limitation, imperfection or new hardening period, in equity or at law, that such Lien or Liens were not otherwise subject to immediately prior to such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement.
(c) Nothing in this Section 4.27 will restrict the release or replacement of any Collateral in compliance with the provisions set out in Section 11.04.
(d) In the event that the Company complies with the requirements of this Section 4.27, the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent and/or the International Security Agent (as the case may be) will consent to any such amendment, extension, renewal, restatement, supplement, modification or replacement without the need for instructions from the Holders.

8.2.2 give the Contractor a written notice specifying the Event of Default and suspending all payments to be made under this Agreement and ordering that the portion of the contract price which would otherwise accrue to the Contractor during the period from the date of such notice until such time as the State determines that the Contractor has cured the Event of Default shall never be paid to the Contractor;

Additional Remedies of Trustee Upon Event of Default During the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in Section 6.14, shall have the right, in its own name and as trustee of the Trust Fund, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders (including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filings of proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.
Enforcement of Security On and at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing the Security Agent may, and shall if so directed by the Majority Lenders, take any action which, as a result of the Event of Default or any notice served under Clause 27.19 (Acceleration), the Security Agent is entitled to take under any Finance Document or any applicable law or regulation.
Waiver of Event of Default The Majority Certificateholders may, on behalf of all Certificateholders, by notice in writing to the Trustee, direct the Trustee to waive any events permitting removal of any Master Servicer under this Agreement, provided, however, that the Majority Certificateholders may not waive an event that results in a failure to make any required distribution on a Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate. Upon any waiver of an Event of Default, such event shall cease to exist and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other event or impair any right consequent thereto except to the extent expressly so waived. Notice of any such waiver shall be given by the Trustee to the Rating Agency.
