Common use of Obligees' Right to Direct Indenture Trustee After Indenture Default Clause in Contracts

Obligees' Right to Direct Indenture Trustee After Indenture Default. (a) During the continuance of any Indenture Default, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Obligations shall have the right, by an Act of Obligees, to direct the Indenture Trustee: (1) to exercise or to refrain from exercising any right or to enforce any remedy granted to it by this Indenture; and (2) to direct the time, method and place of the exercise of any such right or the enforcement of any such remedy; provided that, subject to Section 7.03, the Indenture Trustee shall have the right not to take any such action if it shall determine in good faith that the action would involve it in personal liability, would subject it to expenses against which it has not been offered adequate security and indemnity, or would be unjustly prejudicial to the Obligees not parties to such direction; and provided further that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee shall be obligated to demand payment of the Guarantees as provided in Section 6.02(a) unless the Holders of all the Outstanding Obligations shall have directed him not to make demand. (b) Nothing in paragraph (a) shall affect the right of any Obligee to institute any judicial or other proceeding, if the Indenture Trustee declines to do so, against the Secretary while the Guarantees are in effect or against the Shipowner or the Indenture Trustee if the guarantees have terminated under Section 6.04(a)(4); provided, however, that such action does not seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Obligees or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Obligees.
