Consolidation Merger Sale Conveyance and Lease SECTION 10.01. Company May Consolidate, etc.,
Limited Condition Transaction In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires that no Default or Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Issuer, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default or Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the date the definitive agreements or irrevocable notice, as applicable, for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or has been delivered, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer has exercised its option under the first sentence of this Section 4.27, and any Default or Event of Default occurs following the date the definitive agreements or irrevocable notice, as applicable, for the applicable Limited Condition Transaction were entered into or has been delivered, as applicable, and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder. In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction for purposes of: (1) determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires the calculation of the Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio or Guarantor Indebtedness Ratio; or (2) testing baskets set forth in this Indenture (including baskets measured as a percentage of L2QA Pro Forma EBITDA); in each case, at the option of the Issuer (the Issuer’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements or irrevocable notice, as applicable, for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or has been delivered, as applicable (the “LCT Test Date”). If, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent two consecutive fiscal quarters ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which consolidated financial statements of the Issuer are available, the Issuer could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. If the Issuer has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket, including due to fluctuations in L2QA Pro Forma EBITDA of the Issuer or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Issuer has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Asset Dispositions, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary or the making of Investments or Restricted Payments on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement or irrevocable notice, as applicable, for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may sell, convey or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any person which is directly or indirectly wholly-owned by one or more of the Issuer, the Guarantor and their wholly-owned Subsidiaries. (ii) The Guarantor may consolidate with or merge into any other person, or sell, convey or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any other person, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, provided that: (v) the purchasing or transferee corporation or the successor, continuing or resulting corporation in the case of a merger or consolidation (if the Guarantor is not the surviving corporation), as the case may be (the "Successor Guarantor"), expressly assumes, by an amendment to the Fiscal Agency Agreement and the Guarantee pursuant to the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the obligations of the Guarantor under the Fiscal Agency Agreement and the Guarantee and the due and punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and conditions to be performed or observed by the Guarantor pursuant to the Fiscal Agency Agreement and the Guarantee; (w) such amendment shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Fiscal and Principal Paying Agent, shall be duly executed by the Successor Guarantor and, when so executed, shall constitute a valid and legally binding agreement of such Successor Guarantor, enforceable against such Successor Guarantor in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and to general principles of equity, regardless of whether in a proceeding in equity or at law, and shall be delivered to the Fiscal and Principal Paying Agent; (x) if such Successor Guarantor is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the Federal Republic of Germany (a "Successor Guarantor Jurisdiction"), such Successor Guarantor agrees to assume the Guarantor's obligations under the Guarantee to pay any U.S. Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 3(b)(i) herein or any amounts akin to German Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 3(b)(ii) herein imposed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Successor Guarantor is organized; (y) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred or be continuing; and (z) the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Fiscal and Principal Paying Agent an officers' certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that the conditions precedent to such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or transfer have been satisfied. In addition to the foregoing conditions, in the event of any such assumption of the obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantor, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will be required to deliver an opinion of its counsel of recognized standing to the effect that such assumption of the Issuer's or the Guarantor's obligations under the Notes or the Guarantee, as the case may be, shall not be deemed for U.S. federal income tax purposes to be a taxable exchange of the Notes for new Notes by the Holders thereof, resulting in the recognition of gain or loss for such purposes or resulting in any other material adverse tax consequences to Holders of the Notes.
Interested Transactions An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.7 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.
Portfolio Transactions The Manager is authorized to select the brokers or dealers that will execute the purchases and sales of portfolio securities for the Portfolio and is directed to use its best efforts to obtain the best available prices and most favorable executions, except as prescribed herein. It is understood that the Manager will not be deemed to have acted unlawfully, or to have breached a fiduciary duty to the Fund or to the Portfolio, or be in breach of any obligation owing to the Fund or to the Portfolio under this Agreement, or otherwise, solely by reason of its having caused the Portfolio to pay a member of a securities exchange, a broker, or a dealer a commission for effecting a securities transaction for the Portfolio in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker, or dealer would have charged if the Manager determines in good faith that the commission paid was reasonable in relation to the brokerage or research services provided by such member, broker, or dealer, viewed in terms of that particular transaction or the Manager’s overall responsibilities with respect to its accounts, including the Fund, as to which it exercises investment discretion. The Manager will promptly communicate to the officers and directors of the Fund such information relating to transactions for the Portfolio as they may reasonably request.

The Company shall communicate to the Fund or its designee for that Business Day, by Fund/SERV, the net aggregate purchase or redemption orders (if any) for each Account received by the Close of Trading on such Business Day (the “Trade Date”) no later than 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time (or such other time as may be agreed by the parties from time to time) (the “Fund/SERV Transactions Deadline”) on the Business Day following the Trade Date. All such aggregated orders communicated to the Fund or its designee by the Fund/SERV Transactions Deadline on the Business Day following the Trade Date shall be treated by the Fund or its designee as if received prior to the Close of Trading on the Trade Date.
