Designated Borrowers (a) The Company may at any time, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), designate any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company (an “Applicant Borrower”) as a Designated Borrower to receive Loans hereunder by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver counterparts thereof to each Lender) a duly executed notice and agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit G (a “Designated Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement”). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Borrower becoming entitled to utilize the credit facilities provided for herein the Administrative Agent shall have received (i) with respect to the first designation of a Subsidiary as a Designated Borrower, the Guaranty duly executed by the Company and opinions of counsel as to the execution, delivery and enforceability of the Guaranty and such other matters concerning the Company and the Guaranty as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request, and (ii) with respect to each designation of a Subsidiary as a Designated Borrower such supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel, including such opinions from regulatory counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such other matters concerning the applicable Subsidiary as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request, and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may be required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders in their sole discretion, and Notes signed by such new Borrowers to the extent any Lenders so require. If the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders agree that an Applicant Borrower shall be entitled to receive Loans hereunder, then promptly following receipt of all such requested resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, the Administrative Agent shall send a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit H (a “Designated Borrower Notice”) to the Company and the Lenders specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Borrower shall constitute a Designated Borrower for purposes hereof, whereupon each of the Lenders agrees to permit such Designated Borrower to receive Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and each of the parties agrees that such Designated Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that no Revolving Loan Notice or Letter of Credit Application may be submitted by or on behalf of such Designated Borrower until the date five Business Days after such effective date.
(b) The Obligations of the Company and each Designated Borrower shall be several in nature.
(c) Each Subsidiary of the Company that is or becomes a “Designated Borrower” pursuant to this Section 2.14 hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including (i) the giving and receipt of notices, (ii) the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto, and (iii) the receipt of the proceeds of any Loans made by the Lenders, to any such Designated Borrower hereunder. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Company, whether or not any such other Borrower joins therein. Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgement, direction, certification or other communication delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Designated Borrower.
(d) The Company may from time to time, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate a Designated Borrower’s status as such, provided that there are no outstanding Loans payable by such Designated Borrower, or other amounts payable by such Designated Borrower on account of any Loans made to it, as of the effective date of such termination. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such termination of a Designated Borrower’s status.
Borrower The term “Borrower” as used herein shall include any new or successor corporation, association, partnership (general or limited), limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other individual or organization formed as a result of any merger, reorganization, sale, transfer, devise, gift or bequest of Borrower or any interest in Borrower.
Borrower Products Except as described on Schedule 5.11, no Intellectual Property owned by Borrower or Borrower Product has been or is subject to any actual or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened litigation, proceeding (including any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any corresponding foreign office or agency) or outstanding decree, order, judgment, settlement agreement or stipulation that restricts in any manner Borrower’s use, transfer or licensing thereof or that may affect the validity, use or enforceability thereof. There is no decree, order, judgment, agreement, stipulation, arbitral award or other provision entered into in connection with any litigation or proceeding that obligates Borrower to grant licenses or ownership interest in any future Intellectual Property related to the operation or conduct of the business of Borrower or Borrower Products. Borrower has not received any written notice or claim, or, to the knowledge of Borrower, oral notice or claim, challenging or questioning Borrower’s ownership in any Intellectual Property (or written notice of any claim challenging or questioning the ownership in any licensed Intellectual Property of the owner thereof) or suggesting that any third party has any claim of legal or beneficial ownership with respect thereto nor, to Borrower’s knowledge, is there a reasonable basis for any such claim. Neither Borrower’s use of its Intellectual Property nor the production and sale of Borrower Products infringes the Intellectual Property or other rights of others.
Borrowing Subsidiaries Within two Business Days after the receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by a Subsidiary and the Company, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender a notice of such request to become a Borrowing Subsidiary under this Agreement. If the designation of such Borrowing Subsidiary obligates the Administrative Agent or a Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall deliver to the Company, (a) within five Business Days after the receipt of such a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement in respect of a Domestic Subsidiary or (b) within 10 Business Days after the receipt of such a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement in respect of a Foreign Subsidiary, a request to that effect, and the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such request, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and comply with the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act or any other applicable laws and regulations, and, unless the results of such inquiry conflict with the requirements of such laws and regulations, or if no such request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender is made within the time period set forth above, such Borrowing Subsidiary shall become a party hereto and a Borrower hereunder with the same effect as if it had been an original party to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Subsidiary shall become a Borrower Subsidiary if it shall be unlawful for such Subsidiary to become a Borrower hereunder or for any Lender to make Loans or otherwise extend credit to such Subsidiary as provided herein or for any Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit for the account of such Subsidiary. Upon the execution by the Company and a Borrowing Subsidiary and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Borrowing Subsidiary, such Borrowing Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder; provided that no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Borrowing Subsidiary (other than to terminate such Borrowing Subsidiary’s right to obtain further Loans or Letters of Credit under this Agreement) at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Borrowing Subsidiary or any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrowing Subsidiary shall be outstanding hereunder. Promptly following receipt of any Borrowing Subsidiary Termination, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy thereof to each Lender.
Loan Parties Set forth on Schedule 5.20(b) is a complete and accurate list of all Loan Parties, showing as of the Closing Date, or as of the last date such Schedule was required to be updated in accordance with Sections 6.02, 6.13 and 6.14, (as to each Loan Party) (i) the exact legal name, (ii) any former legal names of such Loan Party in the four (4) months prior to the Closing Date, (iii) the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, as applicable, (iv) the type of organization, (v) the jurisdictions in which such Loan Party is qualified to do business, (vi) the address of its chief executive office, (vii) the address of its principal place of business, (viii) its U.S. federal taxpayer identification number or, in the case of any non-U.S. Loan Party that does not have a U.S. taxpayer identification number, its unique identification number issued to it by the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, (ix) the organization identification number, (x) ownership information (e.g., publicly held or if private or partnership, the owners and partners of each of the Loan Parties) and (xi) the industry or nature of business of such Loan Party.
Co-Borrowers (a) Each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower accepts joint and several liability hereunder in consideration of the financial accommodation provided or to be provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each other.
(b) Each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for the Obligations. Each of the Lead Borrower’s and the Co-Borrower’s obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder, with respect to Term Loans made to the Lead Borrower hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such obligations shall be primary obligations of each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower.
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against either the Lead Borrower or the Co-Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of, the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, all suretyship defenses and consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of either the Lead Borrower or the Co-Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.
(d) Each representation and warranty made on behalf of the Co-Borrower by the Lead Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by the Co-Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against the Co-Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by the Co-Borrower.
(e) Any reference to the “Borrower” in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document means the Lead Borrower, individually, or the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower collectively, as the context may require; provided that (i) any reference in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document to the “Borrower and its Subsidiaries” (or phrases of like nature) shall be deemed to refer to the “Lead Borrower and its Subsidiaries” (as applicable and modified as necessary as the context requires), (ii) any reference in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document to the fiscal year or any fiscal quarter of the Borrower shall be deemed to refer to the fiscal year or the applicable fiscal quarter of the Lead Borrower and (iii) unless the context requires otherwise, any reference in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document to financial statements of the Borrower shall be deemed to refer to financial statements of the Lead Borrower.
(f) For all purposes of this Agreement, the Co-Borrower hereby (i) authorizes the Lead Borrower to make such requests, give such notices or furnish such certificates to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders as may be required or permitted by this Agreement for the benefit of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower and to give any consents on behalf of the Co-Borrower required by this Agreement and (ii) authorizes the Administrative Agent to treat such requests, notices, certificates or consents made, given or furnished by the Lead Borrower as having been made, given or furnished by the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower for purposes of this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent or specified in this Agreement, the Lead Borrower shall be the only Person entitled to make, give or furnish such requests, notices, certificates or requests directly to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for purposes of this Agreement. The Co-Borrower agrees to be bound by all such requests, notices, certificates and consents and other such actions by the Lead Borrower. In each case, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon all such requests, notices, certificates and consents made, given or furnished by the Lead Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document as being made or furnished on behalf of, and with the effect of irrevocably binding, the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower.
