Preservation of Collateral Following the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, in addition to the rights and remedies set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, Agent: (a) may at any time take such steps as Agent deems necessary to protect Agent’s interest in and to preserve the Collateral, including the hiring of such security guards or the placing of other security protection measures as Agent may deem appropriate; (b) may employ and maintain at any of any Borrower’s premises a custodian who shall have full authority to do all acts necessary to protect Agent’s interests in the Collateral; (c) may lease warehouse facilities to which Agent may move all or part of the Collateral; (d) may use any Borrower’s owned or leased lifts, hoists, trucks and other facilities or equipment for handling or removing the Collateral; and (e) shall have, and is hereby granted, a right of ingress and egress to the places where the Collateral is located, and may proceed over and through any of Borrowers’ owned or leased property. Each Borrower shall cooperate fully with all of Agent’s efforts to preserve the Collateral and will take such actions to preserve the Collateral as Agent may direct. All of Agent’s expenses of preserving the Collateral, including any expenses relating to the bonding of a custodian, shall be charged to Borrowers’ Account as a Revolving Advance maintained as a Domestic Rate Loan and added to the Obligations.
PRESERVATION OF COLLATERAL AND PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTERESTS THEREIN Borrower shall, at Lender's request, at any time and from time to time, authenticate, execute and deliver to Lender such financing statements, documents and other agreements and instruments (and pay the cost of filing or recording the same in all public offices deemed necessary or desirable by Lender) and do such other acts and things or cause third parties to do such other acts and things as Lender may deem necessary or desirable in its sole discretion in order to establish and maintain a valid, attached and perfected security interest in the Collateral in favor of Lender (free and clear of all other liens, claims, encumbrances and rights of third parties whatsoever, whether voluntarily or involuntarily created, except Permitted Liens) to secure payment of the Liabilities, and in order to facilitate the collection of the Collateral. Borrower irrevocably hereby makes, constitutes and appoints Lender (and all Persons designated by Lender for that purpose) as Borrower's true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact to execute and file such financing statements, documents and other agreements and instruments and do such other acts and things as may be necessary to preserve and perfect Lender's security interest in the Collateral. Borrower further agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement. Borrower further ratifies and confirms the prior filing by Lender of any and all financing statements which identify the Borrower as debtor, Lender as secured party and any or all Collateral as collateral.
Perfection of Uncertificated Securities Collateral Each Pledgor represents and warrants that the Collateral Agent has a perfected First Priority security interest in all uncertificated Pledged Securities (other than uncertificated Pledged Securities in which a security interest cannot be perfected by taking all applicable actions under the UCC and such other actions (including, without limitation, the delivery or filing of financing, statements, agreements instruments or other documents) as may have been reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent in order to perfect such security interest under the local laws of the jurisdiction of the issuer of such Pledged Securities) pledged by it hereunder that are in existence on the date hereof. Each Pledgor hereby agrees that if any of the Pledged Securities are at any time not evidenced by certificates of ownership, then each applicable Pledgor shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) cause (or in the case of Pledged Securities issued by an issuer that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) the issuer to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an acknowledgment of the pledge of such Pledged Securities substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 hereto or such other form that is reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, (ii) if necessary or desirable to perfect a security interest in such Pledged Securities, cause (or in the case of Pledged Securities issued by an issuer that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) the issuer of such uncertificated Pledged Securities to enter into a control agreement with the Collateral Agent and such Pledgor reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent pursuant to which such issuer shall agree to comply with instructions originated by the Collateral Agent without further consent by such Pledgor, and cause (or in the case of Pledged Securities issued by an issuer that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) such pledge to be recorded on the equityholder register or the books of the issuer, execute any customary pledge forms or other documents necessary or appropriate to complete the pledge and give the Collateral Agent the right to transfer such Pledged Securities under the terms hereof, (iii) upon request by the Collateral Agent, provide to the Collateral Agent an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, confirming such pledge and perfection thereof, and (iv) after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon request by the Collateral Agent, (A) cause (or in the case of Pledged Securities issued by an issuer that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) the Organizational Documents of each such issuer that is a Subsidiary of a Pledgor to be amended to provide that such Pledged Securities shall be treated as “securities” for purposes of the UCC and (B) cause (or in the case of Pledged Securities issued by an issuer that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) such Pledged Securities to become certificated and delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1.
Preservation of Security Interest The Servicer (at its own expense, on behalf of the Borrower) will file such financing and continuation statements and any other documents that may be required by any law or regulation of any Governmental Authority to preserve and protect fully the first priority perfected security interest of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in, to and under the Loan Assets and that portion of the Collateral Portfolio in which a security interest may be perfected by filing.
Securities Collateral Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, Secured Party may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Securities Collateral under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Securities Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private placement may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a sale without such restrictions (including an offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, each Grantor agrees that any such private placement shall not be deemed, in and of itself, to be commercially unreasonable and that Secured Party shall have no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If Secured Party determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Securities Collateral to be sold hereunder from time to time to furnish to Secured Party all such information as Secured Party may request in order to determine the amount of Securities Collateral which may be sold by Secured Party in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.
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.
Pledge of Additional Securities Collateral Each Pledgor shall, upon obtaining any Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes of any person, accept the same in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and forthwith deliver to the Administrative Agent a pledge amendment, duly executed by such Pledgor, in substantially the form of Exhibit 2 annexed hereto (each, a "Pledge Amendment"), and the certificates and other documents required under Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 hereof in respect of the additional Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes which are to be pledged pursuant to this Agreement, and confirming the attachment of the Lien hereby created on and in respect of such additional Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes. Each Pledgor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement and agrees that all Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes listed on any Pledge Amendment delivered to the Administrative Agent shall for all purposes hereunder be considered Pledged Collateral.
Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Equipment The Servicer shall, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures, take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Equipment. The Servicer is hereby authorized to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of the Financed Equipment or for any other reason.
Delivery and Control of Security Collateral (a) Any certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Trustee pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee. The Collateral Trustee shall have the right, at any time in its discretion and without notice to any Pledgor, to transfer to or to register in the name of the Collateral Trustee or any of its nominees any or all of the certificates and instruments representing or evidencing the Security Collateral, if any, subject only to the revocable rights specified in Section 9(a). In addition, the Collateral Trustee shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral, if any, for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations.
(b) At such time as any Pledgor has or acquires any Security Collateral in which such Pledgor has any right, title or interest and that constitutes an “uncertificated security” (within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC), such Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer thereof to agree in an authenticated record substantially in the form of Exhibit B with such Pledgor and the Collateral Trustee that such issuer will comply with instructions with respect to such security originated by the Collateral Trustee without further consent of such Pledgor, such authenticated record to be in form and substance satisfactory to such issuer and the Collateral Trustee.
(c) With respect to any Pledged Equity in which any Pledgor has any right, title or interest and that is not a security (within the meanings of Article 8 and Article 9 of the UCC), such Pledgor will notify each such issuer of Pledged Equity that such Pledged Equity is subject to the security interest granted hereunder.
(d) With respect to any Pledged Debt in which any Pledgor has any right, title or interest, the Pledgor will notify each such issuer of Pledged Debt that such Pledged Debt is subject to the security interest granted hereunder.
(e) If, at any time, an issuer converts any Pledged Equity into a “security” within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC, the relevant Pledgor will either (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer of such Pledged Equity to issue certificates or instruments evidencing or representing the Pledged Equity and deliver the originals of such certificates or instruments promptly to the Collateral Trustee (or as directed by the Collateral Trustee), and, if it or any Person other than the relevant Pledgor, receives any such certificates or instruments, shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Trustee, the originals of such certificates or instruments or (ii) if the security is an uncertificated security (within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC), use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer of such Pledged Equity to enter into an Uncertificated Securities Control Agreement pursuant to clause (b) above.
(f) At such time as any Pledgor has or acquires any Security Collateral in which such Pledgor has any right, title or interest and that is not a security (within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC), such Pledgor agrees that the Collateral Trustee may file a financing statement in the relevant jurisdiction.
(g) No Pledgor shall take or omit to take any action which would or could reasonably be expected to have the result of materially adversely affecting or impairing the Liens in favor of the Collateral Trustee and the holders of Parity Lien Obligations with respect to the Collateral.
Preservation of Property Bank shall not be bound to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in any property pledged as collateral to Bank to secure Borrower and/or Guarantor's Liabilities and Obligations as against prior parties who may be liable in connection therewith, and Borrower and Guarantor hereby agree to take any such steps. Bank, nevertheless, at any time, may (a) take any action it deems appropriate for the care or preservation of such property or of any rights of Borrower and/or Guarantor or Bank therein; (b) demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time due, payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any property pledged as collateral to Bank to secure Borrower and/or Guarantor's Liabilities to Bank; (c) compromise and settle with any person liable on such property; or (d) extend the time of payment or otherwise change the terms of the Loan Documents as to any party liable on the Loan Documents, all without notice to, without incurring responsibility to, and without affecting any of the Obligations or Liabilities of Guarantor.
