Common use of Removal As a Result of a Default Clause in Contracts

Removal As a Result of a Default. In the event of a Default by the Manager, the Qualifying Members (by unanimous vote, excluding any Member that is the Manager or that is an Affiliate of the Manager) shall have the right to remove such Manager as Manager by delivering written notice (the “Default Notice”) to such Manager at any time within thirty (30) days after obtaining actual knowledge of such Default, but only so long as (i) such Manager and its Affiliates are released on or prior to the effective date of removal from any and all personal or recourse liability with respect to all Company and Subsidiary financings and other obligations, and (ii) such removal does not result in a default or breach under any Company or Subsidiary financing documentation. Each Default Notice shall specify in reasonable detail the event of Default and the effective date of removal of the Manager as Manager which effective date may not be earlier than ten (10) days after the date of the Default Notice. Upon the effective date of removal of a Person as Manager, such Person shall automatically be removed as the Manager and shall be replaced in that capacity by a Person elected by the Qualifying Members by unanimous vote (excluding any Member that is the Manager subject to removal or that is an Affiliate of the Manager subject to removal). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision herein to the contrary, if the Manager subject to removal contests the validity of its removal as Manager through expedited arbitration in accordance with Section 12.03 hereof (which such Manager shall be entitled to do), then such Manager shall not be removed as Manager until the conclusion of such arbitration, and only then if such arbitration validates the removal of such Person as Manager.
