Reaffirmation of Guaranties The Credit Parties signatory hereto hereby reaffirm their Guaranties of the Obligations, taking into account the provisions of this Amendment.
Release of Guaranties Prior to the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall cooperate and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to, effective as of the Closing Date, terminate or cause to be terminated, in each case without obligation or liability on the part of Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Sold Companies) (collectively, the "Seller Guarantors"), or cause Buyer or one of its Affiliates to be substituted for such Seller Guarantor, in respect of all liabilities and obligations of the Seller Guarantors under guarantees of or relating primarily to obligations or liabilities (including under any Contract or letter of credit or relating to any Leased Real Property) of the Business and the Sold Companies, including those listed on Schedule 5.13 (the "Guaranties"). In the event the foregoing actions are not completed by the Closing Date, then Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Guarantors from and against all Losses incurred by any such Person as a result of such failure and from and against any continuing obligations and liabilities under any such Guaranties, except for Losses arising from any acts or omissions of a Seller Guarantor. Moreover, Seller and Buyer shall continue to cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to terminate as provided above, or cause Buyer or one of its Affiliates to be substituted in all respects for the Seller Guarantors in respect of, all obligations of the Seller Guarantors under any such Guaranties, and Buyer shall (a) indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Guarantors for any amounts which become payable under such Guaranties after Closing and (b) not and shall not permit the Business, the Sold Companies or their Affiliates to (i) renew or extend the term of or (ii) increase its obligations under, or transfer to another third party, any loan, lease, Contract or other obligation for which any Seller Guarantor is liable under such Guaranty unless the Buyer, the Sold Companies or their respective Affiliates are substituted in all respects for the Seller Guarantors, and the Seller Guarantors are released in respect of all obligations of the Seller Guarantors, under such Guaranties. To the extent that any Seller Guarantor has performance obligations under any such Guaranty, Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to (x) perform, or cause its Affiliates to perform, such obligations on behalf of such Seller Guarantor or (y) otherwise take such action as reasonably requested by Seller so as to put such Seller Guarantor in the same position as if Buyer or one of its Affiliates, and not such Seller Guarantor, had performed or were performing such obligations, in each case after Closing. To fulfill the obligations of Buyer under this Section 5.13, Buyer shall not be obligated to pay any consent fee or similar payment.
Reaffirmation of Guaranty The Guarantors hereby ratify and affirm all of the terms, covenants, conditions and obligations of the Guaranty and acknowledge and agree that the term “Obligations” as used in the Guaranty shall apply to all of the Obligations of Seller to Buyer under the Repurchase Agreement, as amended hereby.
Covenants of Guarantor (a) Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety: (i) the full and prompt payment of all Base Rent and Additional Rent and all other rent, sums and charges of every type and nature payable by Tenant under the Lease, and (ii) the full, timely and complete performance of all covenants, terms, conditions, obligations and agreements to be performed by Tenant under the Lease (all of the obligations described in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Obligations”). If a Default occurs under the Lease, Guarantor will, without notice or demand, promptly pay and perform all of the Obligations, and pay to Landlord, when and as due, all Base Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under the Lease, together with all damages, costs and expenses to which Landlord is entitled pursuant to any or all of the Lease, this Guaranty and applicable Laws.
(b) Guarantor agrees with Landlord that (i) any action, suit or proceeding of any kind or nature whatsoever (an “Action”) commenced by Landlord against Guarantor to collect Base Rent and Additional Rent and any other rent, sums and charges due under the Lease for any month or months shall not prejudice in any way Landlord’s rights to collect any such amounts due for any subsequent month or months throughout the Term in any subsequent Action, (ii) Landlord may, at its option, without prior notice or demand, join Guarantor in any Action against Tenant in connection with or based upon either or both of the Lease and any of the Obligations, (iii) Landlord may seek and obtain recovery against Guarantor in an Action against Tenant or in any independent Action against Guarantor without Landlord first asserting, prosecuting, or exhausting any remedy or claim against Tenant or against any security of Tenant held by Landlord under the Lease, and (iv) Guarantor will be conclusively bound by a judgment entered in any Action in favor of Landlord against Tenant, as if Guarantor were a party to such Action, irrespective of whether or not Guarantor is entered as a party or participates in such Action.
(c) Any default or failure by the Guarantor to perform any of its Obligations under this Guaranty shall be deemed an immediate Default under the Lease; provided, however, that if the basis for the occurrence of a default under this Guaranty is the occurrence of a default by Tenant under the Lease, then the default under this Guaranty shall not constitute a Default under the Lease until any applicable notice and cure period to which the Tenant is entitled under the Lease has expired; provided further, however, that under no circumstances shall this provision be construed to entitle Tenant to multiple notices or cure periods in connection with a given default under the Lease.
Execution of Guarantee To further evidence the Guarantee to the Holders, the Guarantor hereby agrees to execute a Guarantee substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, to be endorsed on and made a part of each Security ordered to be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 2.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a Guarantee. Each such Guarantee shall be signed on behalf of the Guarantor by its Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice Presidents prior to the authentication of the Security on which it is endorsed, and the delivery of such Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of such Guarantee on behalf of the Guarantor. Such signature upon the Guarantee may be a manual or facsimile signature of such officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Guarantee, and in case such officer who shall have signed the Guarantee shall cease to be such officer before the Security on which Guarantee is endorsed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Company, the Security nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the Person who signed the Guarantee had not ceased to be such officer of the Guarantor.
Confirmation of Guaranty Each of the Guarantors confirms that they have read and understand the Amendment. In order to induce the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the other Agents to enter into the Amendment, each of the Guarantors: (i) consents to the Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) ratifies and confirms each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party; (iii) ratifies, agrees and confirms that it has been a Guarantor and a Loan Party at all times since it became a Guarantor and a Loan Party and from and after the date hereof, each Guarantor shall continue to be a Guarantor and a Loan Party in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, as the same may be amended in connection with the Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby; and (iv) hereby ratifies and confirms its obligations under each of the Loan Documents (including all exhibits and schedules thereto), as the same may be amended in connection with the Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby, by signing below as indicated and hereby acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in any of such Loan Documents is intended to create, nor shall it constitute an interruption, suspension of continuity, satisfaction, discharge of prior duties, novation or termination of the indebtedness, loans, liabilities, expenses, guaranty or obligations of any of the Loan Parties under the Credit Agreement or any other such Loan Document.
Ratification of Guaranty By its execution of this Addendum, CFSC ratifies and confirms its guaranty contained in Article IX of the Credit Agreement with respect to the Japan Local Currency Advances made pursuant to this Addendum which Guaranty remains in full force and effect.
Release of Guarantors Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02(b) to the contrary, any Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder (and its Loan Guaranty shall be automatically released) (a) upon the consummation of any permitted transaction or series of related transactions if as a result thereof such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a single transaction or series of related transactions permitted hereunder; provided, that the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Guaranty if such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (a) of the definition thereof shall only be permitted if at the time such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of such type (i) no Event of Default exists, (ii) after giving pro forma effect to such release and the consummation of the transaction that causes such Person to be an Excluded Subsidiary of such type, the Borrower is deemed to have made a new Investment in such Person for purposes of Section 6.06 (as if such Person were then newly acquired) in an amount equal to the portion of the fair market value of the net assets of such Person attributable to the Borrower’s equity interest therein as reasonably estimated by the Borrower and such Investment is permitted pursuant to Section 6.06 (other than Section 6.06(f)) at such time and (iii) a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifies to the Administrative Agent compliance with preceding clauses (i) and (ii)) and/or (b) upon the occurrence of the Termination Date. In connection with any such release, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to the relevant Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence termination or release; provided, that upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that the relevant transaction has been consummated in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 9.22 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent (other than as to the Administrative Agent’s authority to execute and deliver such documents).
Acknowledgment of Guarantors The Guarantors acknowledge and consent to all of the terms and conditions of this Amendment and agree that this Amendment and all documents executed in connection herewith do not operate to reduce or discharge the Guarantors’ obligations under the Credit Documents.
Release of Guarantor (a) In addition to the release provisions set forth in the Indenture, subject to Section 702(d), the Guarantor shall be released and relieved from all of its obligations under this Article Seven, and the Guarantee shall be terminated and be of no further force or effect, upon the request of the Company (without the consent of the Trustee) if, immediately after giving effect to such release and termination (and, if applicable, any transaction in connection therewith, including any other concurrent release, termination, repayment or discharge of any other guarantee or other Debt of the Guarantor), the Company would be in compliance with Section 504 hereof, including in the event of a sale or other disposition as a result of which the Guarantor would cease to be a Subsidiary.
(b) In order to effect the release and termination provided for in Section 702(a), the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that, immediately after giving effect to such release and termination (as well as any concurrent release, termination, repayment or discharge of any other guarantee or other Debt of the Guarantor), the Company will be in compliance with Section 504 hereof. In the event that the release and termination is in connection with a sale or other disposition as a result of which the Guarantor would cease to be a Subsidiary, pro forma effect shall be given to such disposition (including the application of any proceeds therefrom) in determining the Company’s compliance with Section 504 and, accordingly, the amount of Debt subject to the Guarantee and any other Debt of the Guarantor shall be excluded from any calculation thereunder. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, no opinion, report or certificate, other than the Officers’ Certificate provided for in this Section 702(b), need be furnished to the Trustee for such release and termination. After its receipt of the aforementioned Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by either the Company or the Guarantor in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee under this Article Seven.
(c) No supplemental indenture, amendment or waiver shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note, release the Guarantor from any of its obligations under Section 701, other than in accordance with the provisions of this Section 702 or the other release provisions set forth in the Indenture, or amend or modify the release provisions of this Section 702.
(d) Notwithstanding the release provisions of Section 702(a), the Guarantor shall not be released from its obligations under this Article Seven and the Guarantee will not be terminated if, immediately after such release and termination (and, if applicable, after giving effect to any transaction to occur concurrently therewith), the Guarantor remains a co-obligor with or a guarantor for, as applicable, the obligations of the Company under any Existing Note. SECTION 703. AMALGAMATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, CONVEYANCE, TRANSFER OR LEASE.
(a) Unless the Guarantor has been released, or in connection with such transaction will be released, from its obligations under the Guarantee in accordance with the provisions of Section 702 hereof or any other release provision set forth in the Indenture, the Guarantor shall not amalgamate or consolidate with or merge with or into any other Person or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person by liquidation, winding-up or otherwise (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) unless:
(i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Debt which becomes an obligation of the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Guarantor in connection with or as a result of such transaction as having been incurred at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(ii) either (x) the Guarantor shall be the continuing Person or (y) the Person (if other than the Guarantor) formed by such amalgamation or consolidation or into which the Guarantor is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition the properties and assets of the Guarantor substantially as an entirety (the “Successor Guarantor”) shall, unless the Successor Guarantor is the Company, (A) be a corporation, company, partnership or trust organized and validly existing under the federal laws of Canada or any Province thereof or the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof or the District of Columbia and (B) expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee (provided, however, that the Successor Guarantor shall not be required to execute and deliver such a supplemental indenture in the event of an amalgamation of the Guarantor with one or more other Persons, in which the amalgamation is governed by the laws of Canada or any province thereof, the Successor Guarantor and the Guarantor are, immediately prior to such amalgamation, organized and existing under the laws of Canada or any province thereof and upon the effectiveness of such amalgamation, the Successor Guarantor shall have become or shall continue to be (as the case may be), by operation of law, liable for the observance of all obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee); and
(iii) the Guarantor, the Company or the Successor Guarantor, as applicable, shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction (or series of transactions), such supplemental indenture, comply with this Section 703(a) and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been satisfied.
(b) Upon any amalgamation, consolidation or merger, or any conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of the properties and assets of the Guarantor substantially as an entirety in accordance with Section 703(a), the Successor Guarantor shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Guarantor under this Supplemental Indenture and the Indenture with the same effect as if such Successor Guarantor had been named as the Guarantor herein; and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the Guarantor shall be released and relieved from all of its obligations under this Article Seven, and the Guarantee shall be terminated and be of no further force or effect.
