Releases of Guarantees and Liens (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document, the Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Secured Party (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Secured Party except as expressly required by Section 13.01) to take, and shall take, any action requested by the Borrower having the effect of releasing any Collateral or Guarantee Obligations (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Credit Document or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 13.01 or (ii) under the circumstances described in paragraph (b) below. (b) At such time as (A) (i) the Loans and the other Obligations (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations) shall have been paid in full and (ii) the Commitments have been terminated or (B) any item of Collateral (including, without limitation, as a result of a Disposition of a Subsidiary that owns Collateral) is subject to a Disposition permitted under this Agreement, such Collateral shall automatically be released from the Liens and security interests created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and, with respect to the happening of the event described in clauses (A)(i) and (ii), all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Collateral Agent and each Credit Party under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person. (c) Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantee Obligations pursuant to this Section 13.19. In each case as specified in this Section 13.19, the Collateral Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral or Guarantee Obligation from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents and this Section 13.19.
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.
Consent to Collateral Assignment Subject to the provisions of this Section 9.05, Seller may (but is not obligated to) assign this Agreement as collateral to a Lender for any financing or refinancing of the Generating Facility, including a Sale-Leaseback Transaction or Equity Investment and, in connection therewith, Buyer shall in good faith work with Seller and Lender to agree upon a consent to a collateral assignment of this Agreement or to a Sale-Leaseback Transaction or Equity Investment, as applicable (“Collateral Assignment Agreement”). The Collateral Assignment Agreement shall be in form and substance reasonably agreed to by Xxxxx, Seller and Lender, and shall include, among others, the following provisions (together with such other commercially reasonable provisions required by any Lender that are reasonably acceptable to Buyer): Buyer shall give, to the Person(s) to be specified by Lender in the Collateral Assignment Agreement, simultaneously with the Notice to Seller and before exercising its right to terminate this Agreement, written Notice of any event or circumstance known to Buyer which would, if not cured within the applicable cure period specified in Article VI, constitute an Event of Default (an “Incipient Event of Default”); Lender shall have the right to cure an Incipient Event of Default or an Event of Default by Seller in accordance with the same provisions of this Agreement as apply to Seller; Following an Event of Default by Seller under this Agreement, Buyer may require Seller to (although Lender may, but shall have no obligation, subject to 9.05(g)) provide to Buyer a report concerning: The status of efforts by Seller or Lender to develop a plan to cure the Event of Default; Impediments to the cure plan or its development; If a cure plan has been adopted, the status of the cure plan’s implementation (including any modifications to the plan as well as the expected timeframe within which any cure is expected to be implemented); and Any other information which Buyer may reasonably require related to the development, implementation and timetable of the cure plan; Seller or Lender shall provide the report to Buyer within 10 Business Days after Notice from Buyer requesting the report. Buyer shall have no further right to require the report with respect to a particular Event of Default after that Event of Default has been cured; Lender shall have the right to cure an Event of Default or Incipient Event of Default on behalf of Seller, only if Xxxxxx sends a written notice to Buyer before the end of any cure period indicating Xxxxxx’s intention to cure. Lender may remedy or cure the Event of Default or Incipient Event of Default within the cure period under this Agreement. Such cure period for Lender shall be extended for each day Buyer does not provide the Notice to Lender referred to in Section 9.05(a). In addition, such cure period may, in Buyer’s reasonable discretion, be extended by no more than an additional 180 days. If possession of the Generating Facility is necessary to cure such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default, Lender has commenced foreclosure proceedings within 60 days after receipt of such Notice from Buyer, and Lender is making diligent and consistent efforts to complete such foreclosure, take possession of the Generating Facility and promptly cure the Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default, Lender or its designee(s) or assignee(s) will be allowed a reasonable period of time to complete such foreclosure proceedings, take possession of the Generating Facility and cure such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default, not to exceed 180 days after Xxxxxx’s commencement of foreclosure. Additionally, if Lender is prohibited from curing any Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default by any process, stay or injunction issued by a Governmental Authority or pursuant to any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings, then the time period for curing such Incipient Event of Default or Event of Default shall be extended for the period of the prohibition provided that Lender is exercising reasonable diligence in having such process, stay or injunction removed; Lender shall have the right to consent before any termination of this Agreement which does not arise out of an Event of Default or the end of the Term; Lender shall receive prior Notice of, and shall have the right to approve material amendments to this Agreement, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; In the event Lender, directly or indirectly, takes title to the Generating Facility (including title by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure), the Person taking title to the Generating Facility shall assume all of Seller’s obligations arising under this Agreement and all related agreements (subject to such limits on liability as are mutually agreed to by Seller, Buyer and Lender as set forth in the Collateral Assignment Agreement); provided, however, that Lender (or such Person) shall have no liability for any monetary obligations of Seller under this Agreement which are due and owing to Buyer as of the assumption date (but this provision may not be interpreted to limit Buyer’s rights to proceed against Seller as a result of an Event of Default) and Lender’s (or such Person’s) liability to Buyer after such assumption shall be limited to its interest in the Generating Facility; provided further, that before such assumption, if Buyer advises Lender (or such Person) that Buyer will require that Lender (or such Person) cure (or cause to be cured) one or more monetary or non-monetary Incipient Event(s) of Default or Event(s) of Default existing as of the date such Person takes title in order to avoid the exercise by Buyer (in its sole discretion) of Buyer’s right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Incipient Event(s) of Default or Event(s) of Default, then Lender (or such Person) at its option and in its sole discretion may elect to either (i) cause such Incipient Event(s) of Default or Event of Default to be cured, or (ii) not assume this Agreement; If Lender has assumed this Agreement as provided in Section 9.05(h) and elects to sell or transfer the Generating Facility (after Lender directly or indirectly, takes title to the Generating Facility), or sale of the Generating Facility occurs through the actions of Lender or an agent of or representative of Lender (excluding any foreclosure sale where a third party other than Lender, Seller, an Related Entity of Lender or an Related Entity of Seller is the buyer), then Lender must cause the transferee or buyer to assume all of Seller’s obligations arising under this Agreement and all related agreements as a condition of the sale or transfer excluding, however, a foreclosure (unless the transferee or buyer is Lender, Seller, an Related Entity of Lender or an Related Entity of Seller). Lender shall be released from all further obligations under the Agreement and all related documents following such assumption. Such sale or transfer (excluding a foreclosure) may be made only to a Person reasonably acceptable to Buyer; and If this Agreement is rejected in Seller’s Bankruptcy or otherwise terminated in connection therewith and if Lender or its representative or designee, directly or indirectly, takes title to the Generating Facility, then, at the request of either Buyer or Lender, Buyer and Lender (or its designee or representative) shall promptly enter into a new agreement with Buyer having substantially the same terms as this Agreement for the term that would have been remaining under this Agreement, provided that Lender’s (or its designee’s or representative’s) liability under such new agreement shall be limited to its interest in the Generating Facility and neither Lender (or its designee or representative) nor Buyer shall have any personal liability to the other for any amounts owing and neither Buyer nor Lender (or its designee or representative) shall have any obligation to cure any defaults under the original Agreement that was rejected in, or otherwise terminated in connection with Seller’s Bankruptcy.
