Modification of Certain Agreements Each Credit Party will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to, consent to any amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of, or enter into any forbearance from exercising any rights with respect to the terms or provisions contained in (a) any Organization Documents of a Credit Party, in each case, other than any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification or forbearance that could not reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Secured Parties (except with the consent of the Required Lenders) or if required by law, (b) any document, agreement or instrument evidencing or governing any Indebtedness that has been subordinated to the Obligations in right of payment or secured by any Liens that have been subordinated in priority to the Liens of Agent unless such amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification is permitted under the terms of the subordination or intercreditor agreement applicable thereto or could not reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Secured Parties (it being understood that the foregoing shall not prohibit the refinancing, replacement or exchange of such Indebtedness), or (c) the Acquisition Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement) (collectively, the “Acquisition Documents”), in each case, other than any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification or forbearance that could not reasonably be expected to be adverse to the interests of the Secured Parties (except with the consent of the Required Lenders); provided, that, any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification or forbearance of the Acquisition Documents such that any Credit Party or any of their Subsidiaries become directly or indirectly liable with respect to the Deferred Purchase Price shall be deemed adverse to the interests of the Secured Parties.
Suspension of Certain Covenants If at any time after the Issue Date (i) the Notes are rated Investment Grade by each of S&P and Xxxxx’x (or, if either (or both) of S&P and Xxxxx’x have been substituted in accordance with the definition of “Rating Agencies,” by each of the then applicable Rating Agencies) and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the covenants in Section 4.06, Section 4.07, Section 4.09, Section 4.12, Section 4.13 and Section 5.01(a)(2)(C) (the foregoing, the “Suspended Covenants”). Additionally, during such time as the above referenced covenants are suspended (a “Suspension Period”), the Company will not be permitted to designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Company shall promptly upon its occurrence deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the occurrence of any Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date, and the dates thereof. The Trustee shall not have any obligation to monitor the occurrence and dates of a Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date and may rely conclusively on such Officer’s Certificate. The Trustee shall not have any duty to notify the Holders of any such events or dates. In the event that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) the condition set forth in clause (i) of the first paragraph of this section is no longer satisfied, then the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants with respect to future events. On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to be Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 4.06(b)(2). For purposes of calculating the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07(a)(iii), calculations under such covenant shall be made as though such covenant had been in effect since the Issue Date and prior, but not during, the Suspension Period. Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will not reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.07(a). For purposes of Section 4.12, on the Reversion Date, the amount of unutilized Excess Proceeds will be reset to zero. Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred as a result of a failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during a Suspension Period (or on the Reversion Date after a Suspension Period based solely on events that occurred during the Suspension Period).
Termination of Certain Agreements On and as of the Closing, the Company shall take all actions necessary to cause the Contracts listed on Schedule 6.04 to be terminated without any further force and effect and without any cost or other liability or obligation to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and there shall be no further obligations of any of the relevant parties thereunder following the Closing.

Termination of Certain Covenants The covenants set forth in Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9 and 2.10 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the consummation of (i) a Qualified Public Offering or (ii) a Liquidation Event.
Modifications of Certain Documents The Borrower will not consent to any modification, supplement or waiver of (a) any of the provisions of any agreement, instrument or other document evidencing or relating to any Permitted Indebtedness that would result in such Permitted Indebtedness not meeting the requirements of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” set forth in Section 1.01 of this Agreement, unless following such amendment, modification or waiver, such Permitted Indebtedness would otherwise be permitted under Section 6.01, or (b) either of the Affiliate Agreement or the Custodian Agreement, unless such modification, supplement or waiver is not materially less favorable to the Borrower than could be obtained on an arm’s-length basis from unrelated third parties, in each case, without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent (with the approval of the Required Lenders). Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, freely amend, restate, terminate, or otherwise modify any documents, instruments and agreements evidencing, securing or relating to Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.01(d), including increases in the principal amount thereof, modifications to the advance rates and/or modifications to the interest rate, fees or other pricing terms so long as following any such action such Indebtedness continues to be permitted under Section 6.01(d).
Amendment of Certain Documents Such Borrower will not amend or otherwise modify its Certificate of Formation or Articles of Association as the case may be, or operating agreement in any way which would have a Material Adverse Effect on such Borrower.
Effect of Certain Events (a) If at any time the Company proposes (i) to sell or otherwise convey all or substantially all of its assets or (ii) to effect a transaction (by merger or otherwise) in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company is disposed of (collectively, a "Sale or Merger Transaction"), in which the consideration to be received by the Company or its shareholders consists solely of cash, the Company shall give the holder of this Warrant thirty (30) days' notice of the proposed effective date of the transaction specifying that the Warrant shall terminate if the Warrant has not been exercised by the effective date of the transaction.
(b) In case the Company shall at any time effect a Sale or Merger Transaction in which the consideration to be received by the Company or its shareholders consists in part of consideration other than cash, the holder of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to purchase, by exercise of this Warrant and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action, the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto.
Construction of Certain Provisions If any provision of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents refers to any action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person, whether or not expressly specified in such provision.
