(b) The Company has heretofore made available to the Parent true and complete copies of all of the Contracts required to be set forth in Section 3.16 of the Company Disclosure Schedule. Each such Contract is a valid and binding agreement of the Company or one of its subsidiaries in accordance with its terms, and is in full force and effect (except as set forth in Section 3.16 of the Company Disclosure Schedule), except where the failure to be valid and binding and in full force and effect would not individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in default with respect to any such Contract, nor (to the Company's Knowledge) does any condition exist that with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute such a default thereunder or permit any other party thereto to terminate such Contract, except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect. To the Company's Knowledge, no other party to any such Contract is in default in any respect with respect to any such Contract, which would have a Material Adverse Effect. No party has given any written notice (i) of termination or cancellation of any such Contract or (ii) that it intends to assert a breach of any such Contract, whether as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise, which would have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Contract identified in Section 3.16 of the Company Disclosure Schedule in response to any item under this Section 3.16 shall be deemed incorporated by reference to all other items in this Section 3.16.
Material Project Documents (a) The Company shall at all times (i) perform and observe all of the covenants under the Material Project Documents to which it is a party and take reasonable actions to enforce all of its rights thereunder, other than to the extent the same could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 9.8, maintain the System Leases (other than Leases constituting System Leases only pursuant to clause (5) of the definition thereof) in full force and effect, and (iii) maintain the Leases (other than the System Leases referred to in the foregoing clause (ii) of this Section 9.8(a)) to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party in full force and effect, except to the extent the same could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(b) If the term of a Lease with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries expires and the Qualified Lessee under such Lease has either ceased operating the related assets or has ceased paying rent as required under the applicable Lease, the Company shall, or shall cause a Subsidiary, as applicable, to enter into a supplement or a new Lease with respect to the related leasehold assets with a Qualified Lessee that provides for rent that, when combined with all other expected revenue, will, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, as of the commencement date of such supplement or new Lease, generate sufficient revenue to satisfy the requirements of Section 9.9 and will not otherwise result in a materially worse position for the Company as compared to the terms of the applicable expired Lease. Each such new Lease shall have a term of at least five years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) such expired Lease relates to transmission and/or distribution assets that are not generating significant revenue, (ii) the failure to renew such Lease would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) the Company reasonably believes it will generate sufficient revenue and hold sufficient assets (without giving effect to the leasehold assets with respect to such Lease) to satisfy the requirements of Section 9.9, then this Section 9.8(b) will not require a supplement or new lease with respect to such leasehold assets.
