Subordinated Notes The Subordinated Notes have been duly authorized by the Company and when executed by the Company and issued, delivered to and paid for by the Purchasers in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, will have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered, and will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally or by general equitable principles.
Replacement Notes If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.
Revolving Notes The Revolving Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note of the Borrower to such Lender in an original principal amount equal to such Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Committed Amount and in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.1(e).
Initial Notes On the Issue Date, there will be originally issued four hundred million dollars ($400,000,000) aggregate principal amount of Notes, subject to the provisions of this Indenture (including Section 2.02). Notes issued pursuant to this Section 2.03(A), and any Notes issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, are referred to in this Indenture as the “Initial Notes.”
New Notes For so long as a Note is not included in a Securitization, the Holder of such Note (the “Resizing Holder”) shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Borrower to execute amended and restated notes (“Amended Notes”) or additional notes (“New Notes”) reallocating the principal of the Note or Notes that it owns (but in no case any Note that it does not then own) among Amended Notes and New Notes or severing a Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Note or Notes being amended or created, provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of the Amended Notes and New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the principal balance of the Amended Notes and New Notes prior to such amendments, (ii) all New Notes continue to have the same interest rate as the Amended Note of which it was a part prior to such amendments, (iii) all New Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis with the Amended Notes and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement and (iv) the Resizing Holder holding the New Notes shall notify each other Holder, as applicable, and, if any other Note has been included in a securitization, the parties under each applicable PSA, in writing (which may be by email) of such modified allocations and principal amounts. In connection with the foregoing, (1) the Master Servicer is hereby authorized to execute amendments to the Loan Agreement and this Agreement (or to amend and restate the Loan Agreement and this Agreement) on behalf of any or all of the Holders for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal or such severing of a Note, (2) if a Note is severed into “component” notes, such component notes shall each have their same rights as the respective original Note, (3) the definition of the term “Securitization” and all of the related defined terms may be amended (and new terms added, as necessary) to reflect the New Notes and (4) if Note A-1 is severed into “component” notes, another note (or one of the New Notes) may be substituted for Note A-1 in the definition of “Designated Holder” and “Directing Holder” and the definitions of “Lead Note” and “Lead Securitization” and “Non-Directing Holder” will be revised accordingly. Neither Rating Agency Confirmation nor approval of the Directing Holder shall be required for any amendments to this Agreement required to facilitate the terms of this Section 18(a). The Resizing Holder whose Note is being reallocated or split pursuant to this Section 18(a) shall reimburse the other Holders for all costs and expenses incurred by the other Holders in connection with the reallocation or split.
Pari Passu Guarantees The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement shall rank pari passu with any similar guarantee agreements issued by the Guarantor on behalf of the holders of preferred or capital securities issued by the Issuer Trust and with any other security, guarantee or other obligation that is expressly stated to rank pari passu with the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee Agreement.
General Notes The following General Notes apply without exception to this Agreement, including to Annexes 1 through 6.
Notes Borrower agrees that:
(i) upon written request by any Lender to Borrower for a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is requested by Agent for the benefit of all or any Lender to evidence the Loan and other Obligations owing or payable to, or to be made by such Lender, Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of any such request) execute and deliver to such Lender an appropriate promissory note or notes substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D;
(ii) all references to Note or Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean the Note or Notes, if any, to the extent issued (and not returned to Borrower for cancellation) hereunder, as the same may be amended, modified, divided, supplemented and/or restated from time to time;
(iii) upon written request by any Lender, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of any such request, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender new Notes (on substantially the same terms and in substantially the same form) and/or divide the Notes in exchange for then existing Notes in such smaller amounts or denominations as Agent shall specify in its sole discretion; provided, that the aggregate principal amount of such new Notes shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding at the time such request is made; and provided, further, that such Notes that are to be replaced shall then be deemed no longer outstanding hereunder and replaced by such new Notes and returned to Borrower within ten (10) days after Agent’s receipt of the replacement Notes; and
(iv) upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Borrower of the mutilation, destruction, loss or theft of any Notes and the ownership thereof, Borrower shall, upon the written request of the holder of such Notes, execute and deliver in replacement thereof new Notes in the same form, in the same original principal amount and dated the same date as the Notes so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen; and such Notes so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen shall then be deemed no longer outstanding hereunder. If the Notes being replaced have been mutilated, they shall be surrendered to Borrower after delivery of the replacement Notes.
Additional Notes (a) The Issuer may, from time to time, subject to compliance with any other applicable provisions of this Indenture, without the consent of the Holders, create and issue pursuant to this Indenture additional notes (“Additional Notes”) that shall have terms and conditions identical to those of the other Outstanding Notes, except with respect to:
(i) the Issue Date;
(ii) the amount of interest payable on the first Interest Payment Date therefor;
(iii) the issue price; and
(iv) any adjustments necessary in order to conform to and ensure compliance with the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws) and any agreement applicable to such Additional Notes, which are not adverse in any material respect to the Holder of any Outstanding Notes (other than such Additional Notes). The Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes shall be treated as a single series for all purposes under this Indenture; provided, that the Issuer may use different CUSIP or other similar numbers among Issue Date Notes and among Additional Notes to the extent required to comply with securities or tax law requirements, including to permit delegending pursuant to Section 2.9(h).
(b) With respect to any Additional Notes, the Issuer will set forth in an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer (the “Additional Note Certificate”), copies of which will be delivered to the Trustee, the following information:
(i) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture;
(ii) the Issue Date and the issue price of such Additional Notes; provided, that no Additional Notes may be issued at a price that would cause such Additional Notes to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code, unless such Additional Notes have a separate CUSIP or other similar number from other Notes; and
(iii) whether such Additional Notes will be subject to transfer restrictions under the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws).
Additional Notes; Repurchases The Company may, without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue additional Notes hereunder with the same terms as the Notes initially issued hereunder (other than differences in the issue price and interest accrued prior to the issue date of such additional Notes) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount; provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued hereunder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes shall have a separate CUSIP number. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a Company Order, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to cover such matters, in addition to those required by Section 17.05, as the Trustee shall reasonably request. In addition, the Company may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), repurchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, whether by the Company or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties to private agreements, including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives. The Company shall cause any Notes so repurchased (other than Notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08 and such Notes shall no longer be considered outstanding under this Indenture upon their repurchase.
