Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers The Borrower from time to time may request in writing that one or more of its Foreign Subsidiaries become borrowers hereunder with the ability to request and receive Loans and Letters of Credit (each, a “Foreign Subsidiary Borrower”). Each such request shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly circulate each such request to the Lenders. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than 20 days after its receipt of such request as to whether the applicable Foreign Subsidiary may become a party hereto as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. No Foreign Subsidiary shall become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower unless approved in writing by all of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. Any Lender that fails to respond to such a request shall be deemed to have rejected the joinder of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereto. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender may request from the Borrower certain information in respect of such a Foreign Subsidiary in order to make such decision, including, without limitation, such Foreign Subsidiary’s jurisdiction of organization. Loans and Letters of Credit requested by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be made or issued from the United States. If the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree with the Borrower to add a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereto, this Agreement (and the other Loan Documents, as relevant) shall be amended to give effect to such addition. All Lenders shall be required to make Loans to each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, subject to any borrowing sublimits agreed to by the Borrower, the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders. Each such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be required to deliver, among other things (and in each case in form, scope and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders), (a) amendments, joinders and other documents required by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to give such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower the ability to receive extensions of credit hereunder, (b) collateral documents made by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in favor of the Administrative Agent, (c) resolutions, charter documents, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, as may be required by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including without limitation, information necessary to evaluate (i) any withholding tax that may arise in respect of any Loans made to or Letters of Credit issued on behalf of such Foreign Subsidiary, and (ii) the manner in which Loans may be made available to such Foreign Subsidiary, including in Dollars or the requested Agreed Currency), (d) promissory notes signed by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to the extent any Lender so requires, and (e) information required under “know your customer”, anti-money laundering or similar regulations to which such Lender is subject. No Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be joined hereto if (x) a violation of applicable law would result therefrom or (y) any Lender or the Administrative Agent objects to any adverse change in tax treatment that would result therefrom (including, without limitation, the payment of any tax gross-up or the accrual of any withholding tax). In addition, extensions of credit and other financial accommodations from the United States into the applicable jurisdiction must be permitted under applicable law. The Borrower and each Guarantor of Payment shall guaranty the Obligations of each such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower on terms and conditions acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Each Foreign Subsidiary that is or becomes a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Borrower as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each related document, including service of process.
Designation of Subsidiary Borrowers The Company may at any time and from time to time designate any Eligible Domestic Subsidiary as a Domestic Subsidiary Borrower or any Eligible Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and the Company and the satisfaction of the other conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.03, and upon such delivery and satisfaction such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Subsidiary Borrower and a party to this Agreement; provided, that in the case of the designation of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received at least 10 Business Days prior written notice of such designation during which period the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have an opportunity to review drafts of the documentation to be provided under Section 4.03 in connection with such designation and to discuss such designation with the Administrative Agent and/or the Company as applicable. If the Company shall at any time execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to any Subsidiary Borrower, such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Subsidiary Borrower and a party to this Agreement; provided, that no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Subsidiary Borrower at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Borrower shall be outstanding hereunder; provided, further, that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate the right of such Subsidiary Borrower to make further Borrowings under this Agreement.
