Governing Document In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Offering Documents, the Indenture, the Pooling Agreement and this Agreement with respect to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the terms of this Agreement shall control; provided, however, that to the extent that a conflict exists as a result of an interpretation or clarification of any term of this agreement or other legislation or rulemaking by any governmental entity, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the parties hereto agree to amend this Agreement to address any such conflict.
Compliance with Applicable Laws and Governing Documents In the performance of its services under this Agreement, the Subadviser shall act in conformity with the Prospectus, SAI and the Trust’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust and By-Laws as currently in effect and, as soon as practical after the Trust, the Fund or the Adviser notifies the Subadviser thereof, as supplemented, amended and/or restated from time to time (referred to hereinafter as the “Declaration of Trust” and “By-Laws,” respectively) and with the instructions and directions received in writing from the Adviser or the Trustees of the Trust and will conform to, and comply with, the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations. Without limiting the preceding sentence, the Adviser promptly shall notify the Subadviser as to any act or omission of the Subadviser hereunder that the Adviser reasonably deems to constitute or to be the basis of any noncompliance or nonconformance with any of the Trust’s Declaration of Trust and By-Laws, the Prospectus and the SAI, the instructions and directions received in writing from the Adviser or the Trustees of the Trust, the 1940 Act, the Code, and all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Adviser shall remain responsible for ensuring the Fund’s and the Trust’s overall compliance with the 1940 Act, the Code and all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations and the Subadviser is only obligated to comply with this subsection (b) with respect to the Subadviser Assets. The Adviser timely will provide the Subadviser with a copy of the minutes of the meetings of the Board of Trustees of the Trust to the extent they may affect the Fund or the services of the Subadviser, copies of any financial statements or reports made by the Fund to its shareholders, and any further materials or information which the Subadviser may reasonably request to enable it to perform its functions under this Agreement. The Adviser shall perform quarterly and annual tax compliance tests to ensure that the Fund is in compliance with Subchapter M of the Code. In this regard, the Adviser acknowledges that the Subadviser shall rely completely upon the Adviser’s determination of whether and to what extent the Fund is in compliance with Subchapter M of the Code and that the Subadviser has no separate and independent responsibility to test the Fund for such compliance. In connection with such compliance tests, the Adviser shall inform the Subadviser at least ten (10) business days prior to a calendar quarter end if the Subadviser Assets are out of compliance with the diversification requirements under Subchapter M. If the Adviser notifies the Subadviser that the Subadviser Assets are not in compliance with such requirements noted above, the Subadviser will take prompt action to bring the Subadviser Assets back into compliance within the time permitted under the Code thereunder. The Adviser will provide the Subadviser with reasonable advance notice of any change in the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions as stated in the Prospectus and SAI, and the Subadviser shall, in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, manage the Subadviser Assets consistent with such changes, provided that the Subadviser has received prompt notice of the effectiveness of such changes from the Trust or the Adviser. In addition to such notice, the Adviser shall provide to the Subadviser a copy of a modified Prospectus and SAI reflecting such changes. The Adviser acknowledges and will ensure that the Prospectus and SAI will at all times be in compliance with all disclosure requirements under all applicable federal and state laws and regulations relating to the Trust or the Fund, including, without limitation, the 1940 Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, and that the Subadviser shall have no liability in connection therewith, except as to the accuracy of material information furnished in writing by the Subadviser to the Trust or to the Adviser specifically for inclusion in the Prospectus and SAI. The Subadviser hereby agrees to provide to the Adviser in a timely manner such information relating to the Subadviser and its relationship to, and actions for, the Trust as may be required to be contained in the Prospectus, SAI or in the Trust’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A and any amendments thereto.
Constituent Documents Without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent consistent with this Section, no Borrower Party shall alter, amend, modify, terminate, or change any provision of its Constituent Documents affecting the Investors’ debts, duties, obligations, and liabilities, and the rights, titles, security interests, liens, powers and privileges of such Borrower Party, Administrative Agent or Secured Parties, in each case relating to Capital Call Notices, Capital Commitments, Capital Contributions, Pending Capital Calls or Unfunded Commitments; or amend the terms of Section 4 of the Operating Agreement, in each case in any way that materially and adversely affects the rights of Administrative Agent or Secured Parties (each a “Material Amendment”). With respect to any proposed amendment, modification or change to any Constituent Document, the Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of such proposal. Administrative Agent shall determine, in its sole reasonable discretion (that is, the determination of the other Lenders shall not be required) on Administrative Agent’s good faith belief, whether such proposed amendment, modification or change to such Constituent Document is a Material Amendment, and shall notify the Borrower of its determination within (a) for amendments, modifications or changes proposed prior to the Final Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Operating Agreement), five (5) Business Days, and (b) for amendments, modifications or changes proposed after the Final Closing Date, ten (10) Business Days of the date on which it is deemed to have received such notification pursuant to Section 13.07. If Administrative Agent determines that the proposed amendment is a Material Amendment, the approval of the Required Lenders and Administrative Agent will be required (unless the approval of all Lenders is required consistent with the terms of Section 13.01), and Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such request for such approval, distributing, as appropriate, the proposed amendment and any other relevant information provided by any Borrower Party, and the Lenders shall be required to respond to such requests within ten (10) Business Days of such notice. If a Lender has not responded to such request for approval within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such notice, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved such proposed amendment. If Administrative Agent determines that the proposed amendment is not a Material Amendment, the applicable Borrower Party may make such amendment without the consent of Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of Administrative Agent or the Lenders, a Borrower Party may amend its Constituent Documents: (i) to admit new Investors to the extent permitted by this Credit Agreement; (ii) to reflect transfers of interests permitted by this Credit Agreement; and (iii) to facilitate the formation, operation and qualification of such Borrower Party as a RIC (to the extent not in conflict with the restrictions hereunder or otherwise materially adverse to the Lenders).
Modifications of Indebtedness, Organizational Documents and Certain Other Agreements; Etc (a) Amend, modify or otherwise change (or permit the amendment, modification or other change in any manner of) any of the provisions of any of its Indebtedness or of any instrument or agreement (including, without limitation, any purchase agreement, indenture, loan agreement or security agreement) relating to any such Indebtedness if such amendment, modification or change would (i) increase the interest rate on such Indebtedness; (ii) accelerate the dates upon which payments of principal or interest are due on, or increase the principal amount of, such Indebtedness; (iii) change in a manner materially adverse to the Borrower any event of default or add or make more restrictive any covenant with respect to such Indebtedness; (iv) change in a manner adverse to the Borrower, the prepayment, redemption or put provisions of such Indebtedness; (v) change the subordination provisions thereof (or the subordination terms of any guaranty thereof), if any; or (vi) change or amend any other term if such change or amendment would increase the obligations of the obligor or confer additional material rights on the holder of such Indebtedness in a manner adverse to the Borrower or the Lender, except in the case of this Section 7.7(a), if the incurrence of such Indebtedness, upon such amended terms, is not prohibited hereunder.
(b) Except as permitted by Section 7.2, amend, modify or otherwise change its name, jurisdiction of formation or organizational identification number, in each case without providing the Lender not less than five (5) days prior written notice (or such shorter notice as the Lender may consent to in writing in its sole discretion).
(c) Without not less than five (5) days prior written consent of the Lender, change any executive officer of the Borrower.
(d) Amend, modify or otherwise change its Formation Documents or any agreement or arrangement entered into by it, with respect to any of its Equity Interests, or enter into any new agreement with respect to any of its Equity Interests, except any such amendments, modifications or changes or any such new agreements or arrangements pursuant to this Section 7.7(d) that, either individually or in the aggregate, are not adverse to the Lender and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.
Organizational Documents The Company has furnished to the Buyers true, correct and complete copies of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), and the Company’s bylaws, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof (the “Bylaws”), and the terms of all Convertible Securities and the material rights of the holders thereof in respect thereto.
