Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10(a). If any Collateral is disposed of as permitted by Section 6.9 to any Person other than a Credit Party, such Collateral shall be sold free and clear of the Liens created by the Credit Documents and the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall, at the expense of the Borrowers, take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Borrowers to effect the foregoing (provided that if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall provide a certification that such disposition is permitted by this Agreement).
