Common use of Release Actions; Release Certificates Clause in Contracts

Release Actions; Release Certificates. Each Agent, each Lender and each other Secured Party agrees that it will promptly take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower (such actions and such execution, the “Release Actions”), at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, in connection with a Lien Release Event, Release/ Subordination Event or Guaranty Release Event and that such actions are not discretionary. Without limitation, the Release Actions may include, as applicable, (a) executing (if required) and delivering to the Loan Parties (or any designee of the Loan Parties) any such lien releases, mortgage releases or assignments of mortgages, discharges of security interests, pledges and guarantees and other similar discharge or release documents, as are reasonably requested by a Loan Party in connection with the release or assignment, as of record, of the Liens (and all notices of security interests and Liens previously filed) the subject of a Lien Release Event or Release/Subordination Event or the release of any applicable Guarantee in connection with a Guaranty Release Event and (b) delivering to the Loan Parties (or any designee of the Loan Parties) all instruments evidencing pledged debt and all equity certificates and any other collateral previously delivered in physical form by the Loan Parties to a Secured Party. In connection with any Lien Release Event, Release/Subordination Event, Guaranty Release Event or Release Action, each of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely and shall rely exclusively on an officer’s certificate of the Borrower (the “Release Certificate”) confirming that (a) such Lien Release Event, Release/Subordination Event or a Guaranty Release Event, as applicable, has occurred or will upon consummation of one or more identified transactions (an “Identified Transaction”) occur, (b) the conditions to any such Lien Release Event, Release/Subordination Event or Guaranty Release Event have been satisfied or will be satisfied upon consummation of an Identified Transaction, and (c) that any such Identified Transaction is permitted by (or not prohibited by) the Loan Documents. The Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent will be fully exculpated from any liability and shall be fully protected and shall not have any liability whatsoever to any Secured Party as a result of such reliance or the consummation of any Release Action. A Release Certificate may be delivered in advance of the consummation of any applicable Identified Transaction. Each Lender and each Secured Party irrevocably authorizes and irrevocably directs the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent to take the Release Actions and consents to reliance on the Release Certificate. The Secured Parties agree not to give any Agent any instruction or direction inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 9.11 and each Secured Party expressly and irrevocably agrees that it will not hinder or direct the Agents to take any action that will hinder the automatic release of any security interest, Lien or Guaranty provided for by this Section 9.11 (including, without limitation, any refusal to release liens, return possessory collateral, execute and/or file release documentation or take any other reasonably requested actions to documents or effectuate the release of Liens on Collateral, in each case, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense). Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for, or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into, any statement in a Release Certificate, the compliance of any Identified Transaction with the terms of a Loan Document, any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or contained in any certificate prepared or delivered by any Loan Party in connection with the Collateral or compliance with the terms set forth above or in a Loan Document, nor shall the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Each relevant Agent, each Lender and each other Secured Party agrees that following its receipt of an applicable Release Certificate it will take all Release Actions promptly upon request of the Borrower and in any event not later than the date that is (i) the third Business Day following the date Release Certificate is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the date any applicable Identified Transaction described in the Release Certificate is consummated (such later date, the “Release Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing set forth in this Section 10.11 shall relieve or release any Loan Party from any liability resulting from a Default or Event of Default that results from an Identified Transaction or misrepresentation or omission in any Release Certificate.
