Preservation of Purchase Rights Upon Merger, Consolidation, etc In case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company into another corporation or in case of any sale, transfer or lease to another corporation of all or substantially all of the property of the Company, the Company or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Warrantholders an agreement that the Warrantholders shall have the right thereafter upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action to purchase upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no adjustment in respect of cash dividends, interest or other income on or from such shares or other securities and property shall be made during the term of this Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant. Such agreement shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5. The provisions of this Section 5 shall apply similarly to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or leases.
Split-ups and Combinations of Receipts; Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Stock Upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or at such other offices as it may designate for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall execute and deliver a new Receipt or Receipts in the authorized denomination or denominations requested, evidencing the aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered; provided, however, that the Depositary shall not issue any Receipt evidencing a fractional Depositary Share. Any holder of a Receipt or Receipts representing any number of whole shares of Stock may (unless the related Depositary Shares have previously been called for redemption) withdraw the Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented thereby by surrendering such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or at such other offices as the Depositary may designate for such withdrawals and paying any unpaid amount due the Depositary. Thereafter, without unreasonable delay, the Depositary shall deliver to such holder or to the person or persons designated by such holder as hereinafter provided, the number of whole shares of Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented by the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered for withdrawal, but holders of such whole shares of Stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Stock hereunder or to receive Depositary Shares therefor. If a Receipt delivered by the holder to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number of Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary Shares representing the number of whole shares of Stock to be so withdrawn, the Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of Stock and such money and other property, if any, to be so withdrawn, deliver to such holder, or upon his order, a new Receipt evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares; provided, however, that the Depositary shall not issue any Receipt evidencing a fractional Depositary Share. Delivery of the Stock and money and other property being withdrawn may be made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate which, if required by the Depositary, shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer. If the Stock and the money and other property being withdrawn are to be delivered to a person or persons other than the record holder of the Receipt or Receipts being surrendered for withdrawal of Stock, such holders shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary and the Depositary may require that the Receipt or Receipts surrendered by such holder for withdrawal of such shares of Stock be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer in blank. Delivery of the Stock and the money and other property, if any, represented by Receipts surrendered for withdrawal shall be made by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the holder surrendering such Receipt or Receipts and for the account of the holder thereof, such delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such holder.
Merger or Consolidation of the Owner Trustee Any Person into which the Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Owner Trustee, shall, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder; provided that such Person shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.1; and provided further that the Owner Trustee shall file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust of the Issuer, if required by applicable law, and mail notice of such merger or consolidation to the Seller and the Administrator.
Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change (a) If a Fundamental Change occurs at any time prior to the Maturity Date, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion of the principal amount thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000, on the date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than 20 Business Days or more than 35 Business Days following the date of the Fundamental Change Company Notice at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”), unless the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the Interest Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, in which case the Company shall instead pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest to Holders of record as of such Regular Record Date, and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Article XIV. (b) Repurchases of Notes under this Section 14.01 shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon: (i) delivery to the Paying Agent by a Holder of a duly completed notice (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice”) in the form set forth in Attachment 2 to the Form of Note attached to this Indenture as Exhibit A, if the Notes are Physical Notes, or in compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in Global Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in each case on or before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (subject to postponement to comply with changes in applicable law after the date of this Indenture); and (ii) delivery of the Notes to be repurchased, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements for transfer) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, or book-entry transfer of the Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary, in each case such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor. The Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state: (iii) the certificate numbers of the Notes to be delivered for repurchase; (iv) the portion of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and (v) that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the two preceding sentences, if the Notes are Global Notes, then the Holder must instead comply with the applicable Depositary procedures to exercise the Fundamental Change repurchase right. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, a Holder that has exercised its Fundamental Change repurchase right with respect to any Note may withdraw such exercise in accordance with Section 14.02. The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof or any corresponding exercise or withdrawal pursuant to the applicable Depositary procedures. (c) On or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall provide to all Holders and the Trustee and the Paying Agent (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the Trustee) a written notice (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the Fundamental Change and of the repurchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. In the case of Physical Notes, such notice shall be by first class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, such notice shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify: (i) the events causing the Fundamental Change; (ii) the effective date of the Fundamental Change; (iii) the last date on which a Holder may exercise the repurchase right pursuant to this Article XIV; (iv) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price; (v) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; (vi) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent, if applicable; (vii) if applicable, the Conversion Rate and any adjustments to the Conversion Rate as a result of the Fundamental Change; (viii) that the Notes with respect to which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been delivered by a Holder may be converted only if the Holder withdraws the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and (ix) the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to repurchase their Notes. No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 14.01. At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give such notice in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that, in all cases, the text of such Fundamental Change Company Notice shall be prepared by the Company. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company on any date at the option of the Holders upon a Fundamental Change if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the acceleration of the Notes (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes), or any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary shall be deemed to have been canceled, and, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.
Discharge of Liability on Securities; Defeasance (a) When (1) the Company delivers to the Trustee all outstanding Notes (other than Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.09 of the Indenture) for cancellation or (2) all outstanding Notes have become due and payable, whether at maturity or on a redemption date as a result of the mailing of a notice of redemption pursuant to Article III of the Indenture and the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all outstanding Notes, including interest thereon to maturity or such redemption date (other than Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.09 of the Indenture), and if in either case the Company pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then the Indenture shall, subject to Section 8.01(c) of the Indenture, cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture on demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Company. (b) Subject to Sections 8.01(c) and 8.02 of the Indenture, the Company at any time may terminate (1) all its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture (“legal defeasance option”) or (2) its obligations under Sections 4.03, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13 and 4.14 of the Indenture and the operation of Sections 6.01(4), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8) and 6.01(9) of the Indenture (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(7) and (8) of the Indenture, with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and Subsidiary Guarantors) and the limitations contained in Sections 5.01(a)(3) of the Indenture (“covenant defeasance option”). The Company may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. If the Company exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(4), 6.01(6), 6.01(7), 6.01(8) and 6.01(9) of the Indenture (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(7) and 6.01(8) of the Indenture, with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and Subsidiary Guarantors) or because of the failure of the Company to comply with Section 5.01(a)(3) of the Indenture. If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option, each Subsidiary Guarantor, if any, shall be released from all its obligations with respect to its Subsidiary Guaranty. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates. (c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Company’s obligations in Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 2.10, 7.07 and 7.08 of the Indenture and in this Article VIII shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Company’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 8.04 and 8.05 of the Indenture shall survive.
Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, Servicer Any Person (i) into which the Servicer shall be merged or consolidated, (ii) resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party or (iii) that shall succeed by purchase and assumption to all or substantially all of the business of the Servicer, which Person in any of the foregoing cases is an Eligible Servicer and executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Servicer under this Agreement, shall be the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any other document or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that (x) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section 7.3 and (y) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been authorized and filed that are necessary to fully preserve and protect the interest of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee, respectively, in the Receivables, and reciting the details of such filings or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which such details are given, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to fully preserve and protect such interest. The Servicer shall provide prior written notice of any merger, conversion, consolidation or succession pursuant to this Section 7.3 to the Rating Agencies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (x) and (y) above shall be conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.
Repurchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Not later than 30 days following a Change of Control, the Company will make an Offer to Purchase all outstanding Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued interest to the date of purchase.
Discharge of Liability on Notes; Defeasance (a) This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect and any collateral then securing the Notes shall be released (except as to surviving rights of registration or transfer or exchange of Notes and certain rights of the Trustee with respect to compensation and indemnity (and the Issuer’s obligations with respect thereto), as expressly provided for in this Indenture) as to all outstanding Notes when: (1) either (i) all the Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than Notes pursuant to Section 2.7 which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited with the Trustee or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (ii) all of the Notes not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (a) have become due and payable, (b) shall become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year or (c) if redeemable at the option of the Issuer, have been called for redemption or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of a full redemption by the Paying Agent in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and, in the case of this clause (c), the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Paying Agent funds, in cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the date of maturity or redemption, as the case may be, together with irrevocable instructions from the Issuer directing the Paying Agent to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; (2) the Issuer and/or the Guarantors have paid all other sums payable under this Indenture; and (3) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. (b) Subject to Section 8.2, the Issuer at any time may terminate (i) all of its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (with respect to such Notes) and have each Guarantor’s obligation discharged with respect to its Guarantee and cure any then-existing Events of Default (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its obligations under Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 and 3.14 and the operation of Section 4.1 (other than Sections 4.1(a)(i), (ii) and (vi) and Section 4.1(c)(iv)) and Sections 6.1(iii) (with respect to any Default under Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 and 3.14 and the operation of Section 4.1 (other than Sections 4.1(a)(i), (ii) and (iv) and Section 4.1(c)(iv)), 6.1(iv), 6.1(v) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.1(vi) (with respect to Significant Subsidiaries of the Issuer only) and 6.1(vii) (“covenant defeasance option”). The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of the covenant defeasance option. In the event that the Issuer terminates all of its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (with respect to such Notes) by exercising the legal defeasance option or the covenant defeasance option, the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee of such Notes shall be terminated simultaneously with the termination of such obligations. If the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Issuer exercises its covenant defeasance option, payment of the Notes so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(b). Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Issuer terminates. (c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 7.6, 7.7 and in this Article VIII shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.6, 8.5 and 8.6 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.
Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale If any of the following events occur, namely (i) any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than (x) a subdivision or combination to which Section 14.05(c) applies) as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination of the Company with another Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, or (iii) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to any other Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, then the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture (in form satisfactory to the Trustee) providing that each Note shall be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance by a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Notes (assuming, for such purposes, a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock are available to convert all such Notes) immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance assuming such holder of Common Stock did not exercise such holder’s rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance (provided that, if the kind or amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance is not the same for each share of Common Stock in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (“Non-electing share”), then for the purposes of this Section the kind and amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance for each Non-electing share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-electing shares). Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each holder of Notes, at its address appearing on the Security Register provided for in Section 4.02 of this Indenture, within twenty (20) days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture. The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, combinations, sales and conveyances. If this Section applies to any event or occurrence, Section 14.05 shall not apply.
Merger or Consolidation of Trustee or Securities Administrator Any corporation or association into which the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation or association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall be a party, or any corporation or association succeeding to the business of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall be the successor of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator hereunder, provided such corporation or association shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.6, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
