Addition of Guarantors The initial Guarantors hereunder shall be each of the Subsidiaries of Parent that are signatories hereto and that are listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto. From time to time subsequent to the time hereof, additional Subsidiaries of Parent may become parties hereto as additional Guarantors (each an “Additional Guarantor”) by executing a supplement to this Guaranty Agreement in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (or such other form as may be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Upon delivery of any such supplement to Administrative Agent, notice of which is hereby waived by Guarantors, each such Additional Guarantor shall be a Guarantor and shall be a party hereto as if such Additional Guarantor were an original signatory hereof. Each Guarantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Guarantor hereunder, or by any election by Administrative Agent or any Lenders not to cause any Subsidiary to become an Additional Guarantor hereunder. This Guaranty Agreement shall be fully effective as to any Guarantor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any such person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Guarantor hereunder].2
Affirmation of Guarantors Each Guarantor hereby approves and consents to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and agrees and affirms that its guarantee of the Obligations continues to be in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects and shall apply to the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and all of the other Loan Documents, as such are amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with their terms.
Release of Guarantor A Guarantor shall be released from all of its obligations under its Guarantee if:
Consent of Guarantor Each Guarantor shall execute the Consent of Guarantor set forth below.
Joinder of Guarantors Each of the Guarantors hereby joins in this Amendment to evidence its consent hereto, and each Guarantor hereby reaffirms its obligations set forth in the Credit Agreement, as hereby amended, and in each Guaranty Agreement and each other Loan Document given by it in connection therewith.
Release of Guarantors In connection with (x) a Subsidiary Guarantor no longer being a Material Subsidiary or (y) the sale of Equity Interests in a Subsidiary Guarantor permitted under Section 10.4, the Borrower may request in writing that the Administrative Agent release, and upon receipt of such request the Administrative Agent shall release, such Subsidiary Guarantor from the Subsidiary Guaranty and any other applicable Security Documents so long as: (i) such Subsidiary Guarantor owns no Property included in the most-recent calculation of the Borrowing Base, nor any Equity Interest in any Subsidiary Guarantor that owns a Property included in the most-recent calculation of Borrowing Base; (ii) no Event of Default shall then be in existence or would occur as a result of such release; (iii) the representations and warranties made by the Borrower and such Subsidiary Guarantor in the Loan Documents to which any of them is a party, shall be true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date of such release with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically and expressly permitted hereunder)); and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received such written request at least ten (10) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior to the requested date of release. Delivery by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent of any such request shall constitute a representation by the Borrower that the matters set forth in the preceding sentence (both as of the date of the giving of such request and as of the date of the effectiveness of such request) are true and correct with respect to such request. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to release a Subsidiary Guarantor from the Subsidiary Guaranty in accordance with this Section 4.6.
Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor If all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Beneficiary or any other Person effective as of the time of such Asset Sale.
Execution of Guarantee To further evidence the Guarantee to the Holders, the Guarantor hereby agrees to execute a Guarantee substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, to be endorsed on and made a part of each Security ordered to be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 2.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a Guarantee. Each such Guarantee shall be signed on behalf of the Guarantor by its Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice Presidents prior to the authentication of the Security on which it is endorsed, and the delivery of such Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of such Guarantee on behalf of the Guarantor. Such signature upon the Guarantee may be a manual or facsimile signature of such officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Guarantee, and in case such officer who shall have signed the Guarantee shall cease to be such officer before the Security on which Guarantee is endorsed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Company, the Security nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the Person who signed the Guarantee had not ceased to be such officer of the Guarantor.
Limitation of Guaranty Any term or provision of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount for which any Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall not exceed the maximum amount for which such Guarantor can be liable without rendering this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, as it relates to such Guarantor, subject to avoidance under applicable Requirements of Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer (including the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and Section 548 of title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable Requirements of Law) (collectively, “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”). Any analysis of the provisions of this Guaranty for purposes of Fraudulent Transfer Laws shall take into account the right of contribution established in Section 2.3 and, for purposes of such analysis, give effect to any discharge of intercompany debt as a result of any payment made under the Guaranty.
Limitation of Guarantee The obligations of each Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under the Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Federal or state law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under a Guarantee shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the Adjusted Net Assets of each Guarantor.
