Redemption Upon Changes in Withholding Taxes The Offered Securities may be redeemed, as a whole but not in part, at the option of the Company, upon not less than 30 nor more than 90 days notice (which notice shall be irrevocable), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date and Additional Amounts (as defined in Section 3.2), if any, if as a result of any amendment to, or change in, the laws or regulations of Switzerland or the United States, as applicable, or any political subdivision thereof or therein having the power to tax (a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws, including any action taken by a taxing authority or a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction (regardless of whether such action or such holding is with respect to the Company or Guarantor), which amendment or change is announced or becomes effective after the date the Offered Securities are issued, the Guarantor or the Company has become, or there is a material probability that it will become, obligated to pay Additional Amounts on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Securities of such series, and such obligation cannot be avoided by the use of commercially reasonable measures available to Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be; provided, however, that (a) no such notice of redemption may be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts, and (b) at the time such notice of redemption is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect. Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption described in this paragraph, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee (i)(A) a certificate signed by two Officers of the Company stating that the obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the Company taking commercially reasonable measures available to it or (B) a certificate signed by two Officers of the Guarantor stating that the obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by Guarantor taking commercially reasonable measures available to it, and (ii) a written opinion of independent legal counsel to the Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, of recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or there is a material probability that it will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a change, amendment, official interpretation or application described above and that the Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, cannot avoid the payment of such Additional Amounts by taking commercially reasonable measures available to it.
Optional Redemption Due to Changes in Tax Treatment Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, if, as the result of (a) any change in or any amendment to the laws, regulations or published tax rulings of any Relevant Jurisdiction, or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, affecting taxation, or (b) any change in the official administration, application or interpretation by a relevant court or tribunal, government or government authority of any Relevant Jurisdiction of such laws, regulations or published tax rulings either generally or in relation to the Securities or the Guarantees, which change or amendment is proposed and becomes effective on or after the later of (x) the original issue date of such Securities or Guarantees or (y) the date on which a jurisdiction becomes a Relevant Jurisdiction (whether by consolidation, merger or transfer of assets of the Issuer or any Guarantor, change in place of payment on the Securities or Guarantees or otherwise) or which change in official administration, application or interpretation shall not have been available to the public prior to such original issue date or the date on which such jurisdiction becomes a Relevant Jurisdiction (whichever is later), the Issuer or the Guarantors would be required to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 1007 of this Indenture or the terms of any Guarantee in respect of interest on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (assuming, in the case of the Guarantors, a payment in respect of such interest was required to be made by the Guarantors under the Guarantees thereof on such Interest Payment Date and the Guarantors would be unable, for reasons outside their control, to procure payment by the Issuer), and the obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of commercially reasonable measures available to the Issuer or to the applicable Guarantor, as the case may be, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem all (but not less than all) of the Securities in respect of which such Additional Amounts would be so payable at any time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ written notice as provided in Sections 1102 and 1104, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest due thereon up to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption; provided, however, that:
Termination Upon Certain Events 17 16.2 Procedures....................................................17
Repurchase of Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control and Asset Sales Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder shall have the right, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture, to cause the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture. In accordance with Section 4.06 of the Indenture, the Issuer will be required to offer to purchase Notes upon the occurrence of certain events.
Redemption for Changes in Taxes The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Holders of the Notes (which notice shall be irrevocable and given in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.04), at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due or which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts (if any) in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes or Note Guarantee, the Issuer or any Guarantor is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts (but, in the case of a Guarantor, only if the payment giving rise to such requirement cannot be made by the Issuer or another Guarantor without the obligation to pay Additional Amounts), and the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available (including, for the avoidance of doubt, appointment of a new Paying Agent but excluding the reincorporation or reorganization of the Issuer or any Guarantor), and the requirement arises as a result of:
Redemption Upon a Tax Event If (a) AT&T becomes or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendments to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective, on or after October 30, 2017 or (b) a taxing authority of the United States takes an action on or after October 30, 2017, whether or not with respect to AT&T or any of its affiliates, that results in a substantial probability that AT&T will or may be required to pay such Additional Amounts, then AT&T may, at its option, redeem, as a whole, but not in part, the Notes on any Interest Payment Date on not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption. No redemption pursuant to (b) above may be made unless AT&T shall have received an opinion of independent counsel to the effect that an act taken by a taxing authority of the United States results in a substantial probability that AT&T will or may be required to pay the Additional Amounts and AT&T shall have delivered to the Trustee a certificate, signed by a duly authorized officer, stating that based on such opinion AT&T is entitled to redeem the Notes pursuant to their terms. Further Issues AT&T reserves the right from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, to create and issue further notes ranking equally and ratably with the Notes in all respects, or in all respects except for the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date or except for the first payment of interest following the issue date of those further notes. Any further notes will have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as, and will be fungible for United States federal income tax purposes with, the Notes. Any further notes shall be issued pursuant to a resolution of the board of directors of AT&T, a supplement to the Indenture, or under an officers’ certificate pursuant to the Indenture.
Adjustments Upon Certain Events In the event of any change in the outstanding Shares by reason of any Share dividend or split, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, amalgamation, spin-off or combination transaction or exchange of Shares or other similar events (collectively, an “Adjustment Event”), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, adjust any Shares or RSUs subject to this Agreement to reflect such Adjustment Event.
Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes The Issuers may, at their option, redeem all (but not less than all) of the Notes then outstanding, in each case at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of the holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which shall become due on the applicable redemption date as a result of the redemption or otherwise if, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or the official written interpretation of such laws, which change or amendment is publicly announced and becomes effective after the Issue Date (or, if the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, after such later date), the Issuers are, or on the next Interest Payment Date in respect of the Notes would be, required to pay any Additional Amounts or if, after the Issue Date (or, if the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, after such later date), any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions that constitutes a Change in Tax Law, whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Issuers, or there is any change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material probability that the Issuers will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes (each such action, change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation, a “Tax Action”) (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel described in clause (ii) below to such effect is delivered to the First Lien Trustee), and, in each case, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to the Issuers (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the appointment of a new paying agent). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Tax Action will be given (a) earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuers would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Tax Action and (b) unless, at the time such notice is given, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts remains in effect. Prior to any redemption of Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Issuers shall deliver to the First Lien Trustee (i) an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Issuers are entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of redemption have occurred and (ii) an opinion of independent tax counsel reasonably acceptable to the First Lien Trustee to the effect that the Issuers are entitled to redeem the Notes as a result of a Change in Tax Law or a Tax Action. The First Lien Trustee will accept such Officers’ Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the holders.
Prohibition of Fundamental Changes Seller shall not enter into any transaction of merger or consolidation or amalgamation, or liquidate, wind up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation, winding up or dissolution) or sell all or substantially all of its assets; provided, that Seller may merge or consolidate with (a) any wholly owned subsidiary of Seller, or (b) any other Person if Seller is the surviving corporation; and provided further, that if after giving effect thereto, no Default would exist hereunder.
Acceleration Upon Change of Control In the event of a Change of Control, all obligations hereunder shall be accelerated and such obligations shall be calculated pursuant to this Article IV as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the closing date of the Change of Control and utilizing the Valuation Assumptions by substituting the phrase “the closing date of a Change of Control” in each place where the phrase “Early Termination Effective Date” appears. Such obligations shall include, but not be limited to, (1) the Early Termination Payment calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the closing date of the Change of Control, (2) any Tax Benefit Payments agreed to by the Corporation and the Members as due and payable but unpaid as of the Early Termination Notice and (3) any Tax Benefit Payments due for any Taxable Year ending prior to, with or including the closing date of a Change of Control (except to the extent that any amounts described in clauses (2) or (3) are included in the Early Termination Payment). For the avoidance of doubt, Sections 4.2 and 4.3 shall apply to a Change of Control, mutadis mutandi.
