Limitation on Senior Subordinated Indebtedness The Company will not Incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness and senior in right of payment to the Securities. No Guarantor will Incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor and senior in right of payment to such Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee.
Limitation on Incurrence of Additional Indebtedness The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness; provided, however, that if no Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of or would occur as a consequence of the incurrence of any such Indebtedness, the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), and Restricted Subsidiaries which are not Guarantors may incur Acquired Indebtedness, in each case if, after giving effect to the incurrence thereof, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company is at least 2.0 to 1.0 (the “Coverage Ratio Exception”). The Company will not, directly or indirectly, in any event incur any Indebtedness that purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to any other Indebtedness of the Company unless such Indebtedness is also by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to the Notes to the same extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to such other Indebtedness of the Company. No Subsidiary Guarantor will, directly or indirectly, in any event incur any Indebtedness that purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to any other Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to the Note Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor to the same extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to such other Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section 4.08, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.08 shall not be deemed to be exceeded as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies. For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.08:
Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock or preferred stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such preferred stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period; provided, further, that the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness incurred by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to this paragraph shall not exceed $10.0 million.
Limitation on Additional Indebtedness The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness unless, after giving effect thereto, either (i) the ratio of Indebtedness of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding, for purposes of this calculation only, purchase money mortgages that are Non-Recourse Indebtedness), to Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of the Company is less than 2.25 to 1; or (ii) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio exceeds 2.0 to 1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur: (i) Indebtedness under one or more Bank Credit Facilities in an amount not in excess of $550 million outstanding in the aggregate at any one time; (ii) purchase money mortgages that are Non-Recourse Indebtedness; (iii) Indebtedness Incurred under a Warehouse Facility, provided that the amount of such Indebtedness (excluding funding drafts issued thereunder) outstanding at any time pursuant to this clause (iii) may not exceed 98% of the value of the Mortgages pledged to secure Indebtedness thereunder; (iv) Indebtedness Incurred solely for the purpose of refinancing or repaying any existing Indebtedness so long as (A) the principal amount of such new Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of the existing Indebtedness refinanced or repaid (plus the premiums or other payments required to be paid in connection with such refinancing or repayment and the expenses incurred in connection therewith), (B) the maturity of such new Indebtedness is not earlier than that of the existing Indebtedness to be refinanced or repaid, (C) such new Indebtedness, determined as of the date of Incurrence, has an Average Life at least equal to the remaining Average Life of the Indebtedness to be refinanced or repaid, (D) the new Indebtedness is pari passu with or subordinate to the Indebtedness being refinanced or repaid, and (E) the existing and new Indebtedness are obligations of the same entity; and (v) if any Restricted Subsidiary guarantees payment of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.11, Indebtedness of the Company owed to a Guarantor and Indebtedness of any Guarantor owed to the Company or any other Guarantor; provided that upon any Guarantor ceasing to be a Guarantor or such Indebtedness being owed to any Person other than the Company or a Guarantor, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, shall be deemed to have Incurred Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (v). For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.02, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Indebtedness permitted in clauses (i) through (v) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 6.02, the Company will be permitted to classify (or later classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this covenant.
Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock (a) (i) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock; and (ii) the Company shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock and any Restricted Subsidiary may issue shares of Preferred Stock, in each case if the Interest Coverage Ratio of the Company for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is Incurred or such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is issued would have been at least 2.00 to 1.00 determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been Incurred, or the Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be, and the application of proceeds therefrom had occurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period; provided, further, that Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors may not Incur Indebtedness or issue shares of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 4.03(a) if, after giving pro forma effect to such Incurrence or issuance (including the pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock then outstanding of Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors pursuant to this Section 4.03(a) exceeds the greater of $1,250 million and 5.0% of Total Assets (the “Non-Guarantor Exception”).
Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries The Issuer shall not permit any of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries guarantee other capital markets debt securities of the Issuer or any Guarantor), other than a Guarantor, a Foreign Subsidiary or a Securitization Subsidiary, to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any other Guarantor unless:
Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and the Guarantors may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue preferred stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such preferred stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.
Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness The Company shall not permit any of the Subsidiaries of the Company to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness, except:
Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), neither the Company nor any Guarantor will issue any Disqualified Stock, and the Company will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company and any Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock is issued would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. The first paragraph of this Section 4.09 will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):
Subordination of Subrogation Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness (A) Subordination of Subrogation. Until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid in full in cash, the Guarantors (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) waive any right to enforce any remedy which the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent now have or may hereafter have against the Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, and the Guarantors waive any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other liability of the Borrower to the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations or the Issuing Bank. Should any Guarantor have the right, notwithstanding the foregoing, to exercise its subrogation rights, each Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably (A) subordinates any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off that such Guarantor may have to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and (B) waives any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Guaranteed Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty, and that the Administrative Agent, the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 7(A).
