Rights and Remedies of the Collateral Agent (a) In addition to the rights and remedies specified in Section 4.4 hereof or otherwise available at law or in equity, after an event of default hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (or any successor thereto) as in effect in the State of New York from time to time (the "Code") (whether or not the Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and the TRADES Regulations and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted. Wherever reference is made in this Agreement to any section of the Code, such reference shall be deemed to include a reference to any provision of the Code which is a successor to, or amendment of, such section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such remedies may include, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) retention of the Pledged Debt Securities or other Collateral in full satisfaction of the Holders' obligations under the Purchase Contracts or (ii) sale of the Pledged Debt Securities or other Collateral in one or more public or private sales and application of the proceeds in full satisfaction of the Holders' obligations under the Purchase Contracts.
SECURITY, ENFORCEMENT AND LIMITED RECOURSE (i) Party A agrees with Party B and the Security Trustee to be bound by the terms of the Eighth Issuer Deed of Charge and, in particular, confirms that: (A) no sum will be payable by or on behalf of Party B to it except in accordance with the provisions of the Eighth Issuer Deed of Charge; and (B) it will not take any steps for the winding up, dissolution or reorganisation or for the appointment of a receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar officer of Party B or of any or all of its revenues and assets nor participate in any ex parte proceedings nor seek to enforce any judgment against Party B, subject to the provisions of the Eighth Issuer Deed of Charge.
Lack of Reliance on the Collateral Agent Independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent, each Secured Party, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries in connection with such Secured Party’s investment in the Debtors, the creation and continuance of the Obligations, the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and the taking or not taking of any action in connection therewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Company and its subsidiaries, and of the value of the Collateral from time to time, and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Secured Party with any credit, market or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before any Obligations are incurred or at any time or times thereafter. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to the Debtors or any Secured Party for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith, or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectibility, priority or sufficiency of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for the financial condition of the Debtors or the value of any of the Collateral, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or the financial condition of the Debtors, or the value of any of the Collateral, or the existence or possible existence of any default or Event of Default under the Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents.
Certain Rights of the Collateral Agent The Collateral Agent shall have the right to take any action with respect to the Collateral, on behalf of all of the Secured Parties. To the extent practical, the Collateral Agent shall request instructions from the Secured Parties with respect to any material act or action (including failure to act) in connection with the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and shall be entitled to act or refrain from acting in accordance with the instructions of Secured Parties holding a majority in principal amount of Notes (based on then-outstanding principal amounts of Notes at the time of any such determination); if such instructions are not provided despite the Collateral Agent’s request therefor, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action, and if such action is taken, shall be entitled to appropriate indemnification from the Secured Parties in respect of actions to be taken by the Collateral Agent; and the Collateral Agent shall not incur liability to any person or entity by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, (a) no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Collateral Agent as a result of the Collateral Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and the Debtors shall have no right to question or challenge the authority of, or the instructions given to, the Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing and (b) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action which the Collateral Agent believes (i) could reasonably be expected to expose it to personal liability or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or applicable law.
Priorities and Agreements With Respect to Shared Collateral 18 Section 2.1 Priority of Claims. 18
Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Company, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by Collateral Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Requisite Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by Collateral Agent at such sale.
Authority of Administrative Agent to Release Collateral and Liens Each Lender and the Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to release any collateral that is permitted to be sold or released pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, any and all releases of Liens, termination statements, assignments or other documents reasonably requested by the Borrower in connection with any sale or other disposition of Property to the extent such sale or other disposition is permitted by the terms of Section 9.12 or is otherwise authorized by the terms of the Loan Documents.
Optional Preservation of the Collateral If the Notes have been declared to be due under Section 5.02 following an Event of Default and the declaration and its consequences have not been annulled, the Indenture Trustee may with the consent of the Credit Enhancer, but need not unless so directed by the Credit Enhancer, elect to maintain possession of the Collateral. The parties and the Noteholders want sufficient funds to exist at all times for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and other obligations of the Issuer including payments to the Credit Enhancer, and the Indenture Trustee shall take that into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of any Collateral. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Collateral, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely on an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of the proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Collateral for the purpose.
Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantee Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing), shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale or other disposition.
Preservation of the Collateral Secured Party may, but is not required to, take such actions from time to time as Secured Party reasonably deems appropriate to maintain or protect the Collateral. Secured Party shall have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if Secured Party takes such action as Grantor shall reasonably request in writing which is not inconsistent with Secured Party's status as a secured party, but the failure of Secured Party to comply with any such request shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care; provided, however, Secured Party's responsibility for the safekeeping of the Collateral shall (i) be deemed reasonable if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Secured Party accords its own property, and (ii) not extend to matters beyond the control of Secured Party, including acts of God, war, insurrection, riot or governmental actions. In addition, any failure of Secured Party to preserve or protect any rights with respect to the Collateral against prior or third parties, or to do any act with respect to preservation of the Collateral, not so requested by Grantor, shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care in the custody or preservation of the Collateral. Grantor shall have the sole responsibility for taking such action as may be necessary, from time to time, to preserve all rights of Grantor and Secured Party in the applicable Collateral against prior or third parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, where Collateral consists in whole or in part of Capital Securities, Grantor represents to, and covenants with, Secured Party that Grantor has made arrangements for keeping informed of changes or potential changes affecting the Capital Securities (including rights to convert or subscribe, payment of dividends, reorganization or other exchanges, tender offers and voting rights), and Grantor agrees that Secured Party shall have no responsibility or liability for informing Grantor of any such or other changes or potential changes or for taking any action or omitting to take any action with respect thereto.
