Release of Liens If at any time any Grantor or any ABL Secured Party delivers notice to the New First Lien Collateral Agent with respect to any specified Common Collateral that:
(A) such specified Common Collateral is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of (a “Disposition”) by the owner of such Common Collateral in a transaction permitted under the ABL Credit Agreement and the New First Lien Agreement; or
(B) the ABL Secured Parties are releasing or have released their Liens on such Common Collateral in connection with a Disposition in connection with an Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies with respect to such Common Collateral, then the Liens upon such Common Collateral securing New First Lien Obligations will automatically be released and discharged as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens on such Common Collateral securing ABL Obligations are released and discharged (provided that in the case of clause (B) of this Section 2.4(b), the Liens on any Common Collateral disposed of in connection with an Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies shall be automatically released but any proceeds thereof not applied to repay ABL Obligations shall be subject to the respective Liens securing New First Lien Obligations and shall be applied pursuant to Section 4.1). Upon delivery to the New First Lien Collateral Agent of a notice from the ABL Collateral Agent stating that any such release of Liens securing or supporting the ABL Obligations has become effective (or shall become effective upon the New First Lien Collateral Agent’s receipt of such notice), the New First Lien Collateral Agent shall, at the Company’s expense, promptly execute and deliver such instruments, releases, termination statements or other documents confirming such release on customary terms, which instruments, releases and termination statements shall be substantially identical to the comparable instruments, releases and termination statements executed by the ABL Collateral Agent in connection with such release. The New First Lien Collateral Agent hereby appoints the ABL Collateral Agent and any officer or duly authorized person of the ABL Collateral Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power of attorney in the place and stead of the New First Lien Collateral Agent and in the name of the New First Lien Collateral Agent or in the ABL Collateral Agent’s own name, from time to time, in the ABL Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, for the purposes of carrying out the terms of this paragraph, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this paragraph, including any financing statements, endorsements, assignments, releases or other documents or instruments of transfer (which appointment, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable).
Release of Liens and Guarantees A Subsidiary Loan Party (other than a Borrower) shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, (1) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (including pursuant to a merger with a Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party or a designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary) or (2) upon the request of the Borrower, in connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan party ceases to be a wholly-owned Subsidiary. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Loan Party (other than to Holdings, the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or any other Subsidiary Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral or the release of any Loan Party from its Guarantee under the Guarantee Agreement pursuant to Section 9.02, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents or such guarantee shall be automatically released. Upon termination of the aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit including as a result of obtaining the consent of the applicable Issuing Bank as described in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement), all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.
Guaranty Matters The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10.
Continuing Security Interest; Assignments under the Credit Agreement This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations, (ii) the Termination Date and (iii) the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and all Secured Hedge Agreements, (b) be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes, if any, held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 8.07 of the Credit Agreement.
Continuing Security Interest: Assignments under Credit Agreement This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been paid in full in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the Commitments have expired or have been terminated, (b) be binding upon each Grantor, and their respective successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Agent, and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender may, in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise. Upon payment in full of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the expiration or termination of the Commitments, the Security Interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors or any other Person entitled thereto. At such time, Agent will authorize the filing of appropriate termination statements to terminate such Security Interests. No transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by any Grantor to Agent nor any additional Advances or other loans made by any Lender to Borrower, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantors, or any of them, by Agent, nor any other act of the Lender Group or the Bank Product Providers, or any of them, shall release any Grantor from any obligation, except a release or discharge executed in writing by Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Agent of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such right or remedy which Agent would otherwise have had on any other occasion.
Limitation on Hedge Agreements Enter into any Hedge Agreement other than Hedge Agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, and not for speculative purposes.
Waivers and Supplemental Agreements with Consent of Holders With the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class representing Certificate Balances aggregating not less than 66% of the related Class Balance, (i) compliance by Xxxxxx Xxx with any of the terms of this Trust Agreement may be waived or (ii) Xxxxxx Mae, in its corporate capacity and in its capacity as Trustee, may enter into any Supplemental Agreement for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Certificates issued under this Trust Agreement; provided, however, that no such waiver or Supplemental Agreement shall:

It shall not be necessary for Holders to approve the particular form of any proposed Supplemental Agreement, but it shall be sufficient if such Holders shall approve the substance thereof. Promptly after the execution of any Supplemental Agreement pursuant to this Section, Xxxxxx Mae shall give written notice thereof to Holders of Certificates. Any failure of Xxxxxx Xxx to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such Supplemental Agreement.
Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off In the event that the Securities Intermediary has or subsequently obtains by agreement, by operation of law or otherwise a security interest in the Securities Account or any security entitlement credited thereto, the Securities Intermediary hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to the security interest of the Collateral Agent. The financial assets and other items deposited to the Securities Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any person other than the Collateral Agent (except that the Securities Intermediary may set off (i) all amounts due to the Securities Intermediary in respect of customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Securities Account and (ii) the face amount of any checks which have been credited to such Securities Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds).
Certain Obligations Respecting Subsidiaries Further Assurances (a) Such Obligor will take such action, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to take such action, from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that all Domestic Subsidiaries are “Subsidiary Guarantors” hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Obligor or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries shall form or acquire any new Subsidiary, such Obligor will (or will cause such Subsidiary to) no later than within 60 days of such formation or acquisition:
(i) cause such new Domestic Subsidiary to become a “Subsidiary Guarantor” hereunder pursuant to a Guarantee Assumption Agreement;
(ii) take such action or cause such Domestic Subsidiary to take such action (including joining the Security Agreement, delivering such shares of stock together with undated transfer powers executed in blank) as shall be necessary to create and perfect valid and enforceable first priority (subject to Permitted Priority Liens) Liens on substantially all of the personal property of such new Domestic Subsidiary as collateral security for the obligations of such new Domestic Subsidiary hereunder;
(iii) to the extent that the parent of such Subsidiary is not a party to the Security Agreement or has not otherwise pledged Equity Interests in its Subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement and this Agreement, cause the parent of such Subsidiary to execute and deliver a pledge agreement in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in respect of all outstanding issued shares of such Subsidiary if it is a Domestic Subsidiary or 65% of the issued shares of such Subsidiary if it is a Foreign Subsidiary, to the extent not prohibited or otherwise restricted by applicable law;
(iv) with respect to any Subsidiary, deliver such proof of corporate action, incumbency of officers, opinions of counsel and other documents as is consistent with those delivered by each Obligor pursuant to Section 6.01 or as the Lender shall have requested; and
(v) shall cause each new Subsidiary to become party to the Intercompany Subordination Agreement.
(b) Such Obligor will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall reasonably be requested by the Lender to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Obligor will, and will cause each Person that is required to be a Subsidiary Guarantor to, take such action from time to time (including executing and delivering such assignments, security agreements, control agreements and other instruments) as shall be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to create, in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, perfected security interests and Liens in substantially all of the personal property of such Obligor and its Subsidiaries as collateral security for the Obligations; provided that any such security interest or Lien shall be subject to the relevant requirements of the Security Documents.
Collateral Documents and Guaranty (a) The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion,
(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Credit Document (v) upon termination of all Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than Remaining Obligations) and the expiration, termination or Cash Collateralization of all Letters of Credit, (w) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under the Credit Documents to any Person other than a Credit Party (provided that if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall provide a certification that such disposition is permitted by this Agreement), (x) subject to Section 10.5, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the requisite lenders under this Agreement, (y) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (iii) below or (z) to the extent the property subject to such Lien becomes an Excluded Asset;
(ii) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Credit Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.2(f) or 6.2(g); and
(iii) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Credit Documents. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10(a). If any Collateral is disposed of as permitted by Section 6.9 to any Person other than a Credit Party, such Collateral shall be sold free and clear of the Liens created by the Credit Documents and the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall, at the expense of the Borrowers, take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Borrowers to effect the foregoing (provided that if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall provide a certification that such disposition is permitted by this Agreement).
(b) Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, each Credit Party, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Credit Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.
(c) Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into (including 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 any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.
(d) No Secured Swap Contract or Cash Management Obligation will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Eligible Counterparty or Cash Management Bank, as applicable, that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Guarantor under the Credit Documents except as expressly provided in Section 8.3 and Section 10.5(d)(iv). By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Eligible Counterparty and each Cash Management Bank shall be deemed to have appointed the Collateral Agent as its agent and agreed to be bound by the Credit Documents as a Secured Party, subject to the limitations set forth in this clause (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Cash Management Obligations or Obligations arising under Secured Swap Contracts unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Eligible Counterparty, as the case may be.
