In addition to the permitted issuances above, Secured Debt not otherwise so permitted may be issued in an amount that does not exceed 15% of Net Tangible Assets as defined below.

(x) Indebtedness consisting of promissory notes issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any current or former employee, director or consultant of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Parents (or permitted transferees, assigns, estates, or heirs of such employee, director or consultant), to finance the purchase or redemption of Capital Stock of the Company or any of its Parents;

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to and in compliance with, this Section 3.2: (i) in the event that all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 3.2(a) and (b), the Company, in its sole discretion, will classify, and may from time to time reclassify, such Indebtedness and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of the clauses of Section 3.2(a) or (b); (ii) additionally, all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness may later be reclassified as having been Incurred pursuant to any type of Indebtedness described in Section 3.2(a) and (b) so long as such Indebtedness is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to such provision; (iii) Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments relating to, or Liens securing, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included; (iv) if obligations in respect of letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments are Incurred pursuant to any Credit Facility and are being treated as Incurred pursuant to clauses (i) or (vii) of Section 3.2(b) or Section 3.2(a) and the letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances or other similar instruments relate to other Indebtedness, then such other Indebtedness shall not be included; (v) the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, or Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof; (vi) Indebtedness permitted by this Section 3.2 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 3.2 permitting such Indebtedness; and (vii) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined on the basis of GAAP. (d) Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock or the reclassification of commitments or obligations not treated as Indebtedness due to a change in GAAP, will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 3.2. The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (a) the accreted value thereof in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount and (b) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, or liquidation preference thereof, in the case of any other Indebtedness. (e) If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 3.2, the Company shall be in default of this Section 3.2). (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.2, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary may Incur pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. (g) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to other Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be. (h) Unsecured Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to secured Indebtedness merely because such Indebtedness is unsecured. Senior Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral or is secured by different collateral.

  • Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness The Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness, other than (A) Indebtedness of any Subsidiary of the Company consisting of (i) Guarantees by such Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Company under Credit Facilities or (ii) Liens granted by such Subsidiary to secure such Guarantee or such Indebtedness of the Company, in an aggregate principal amount (without duplication), when taken together with the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness secured by Liens on the property or assets (which includes capital stock) of the Company and its Subsidiaries Incurred pursuant to the second sentence and clause (1) of the first paragraph of Section 3.02, not to exceed the Permitted Amount at the time of Incurrence of such Guarantee or Lien; (B) Indebtedness of any Designated Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of such Designated Subsidiary, provided that, with respect to this clause (B) only, no portion of such Indebtedness is recourse to the Company or any of its other Subsidiaries; (C) Acquired Indebtedness; (D) Indebtedness existing on the Issue Date of any Subsidiary of the Company; (E) Indebtedness of any Subsidiary of the Company issued in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used or will be used to extend, refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund, other Indebtedness that was permitted by this Supplemental Indenture to be Incurred under clause (C) or (D) of this Section 3.01; or (F) Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount, at anytime outstanding, not to exceed $250.0 million. The maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to this Section 3.01 shall not be deemed to be exceeded with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness due solely to the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies.

  • Limitation on Additional Indebtedness The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness unless, after giving effect thereto, either (i) the ratio of Indebtedness of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding, for purposes of this calculation only, purchase money mortgages that are Non-Recourse Indebtedness), to Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of the Company is less than 2.25 to 1; or (ii) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio exceeds 2.0 to 1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur: (i) Indebtedness under one or more Bank Credit Facilities in an amount not in excess of $550 million outstanding in the aggregate at any one time; (ii) purchase money mortgages that are Non-Recourse Indebtedness; (iii) Indebtedness Incurred under a Warehouse Facility, provided that the amount of such Indebtedness (excluding funding drafts issued thereunder) outstanding at any time pursuant to this clause (iii) may not exceed 98% of the value of the Mortgages pledged to secure Indebtedness thereunder; (iv) Indebtedness Incurred solely for the purpose of refinancing or repaying any existing Indebtedness so long as (A) the principal amount of such new Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of the existing Indebtedness refinanced or repaid (plus the premiums or other payments required to be paid in connection with such refinancing or repayment and the expenses incurred in connection therewith), (B) the maturity of such new Indebtedness is not earlier than that of the existing Indebtedness to be refinanced or repaid, (C) such new Indebtedness, determined as of the date of Incurrence, has an Average Life at least equal to the remaining Average Life of the Indebtedness to be refinanced or repaid, (D) the new Indebtedness is pari passu with or subordinate to the Indebtedness being refinanced or repaid, and (E) the existing and new Indebtedness are obligations of the same entity; and (v) if any Restricted Subsidiary guarantees payment of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.11, Indebtedness of the Company owed to a Guarantor and Indebtedness of any Guarantor owed to the Company or any other Guarantor; provided that upon any Guarantor ceasing to be a Guarantor or such Indebtedness being owed to any Person other than the Company or a Guarantor, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, shall be deemed to have Incurred Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (v). For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.02, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Indebtedness permitted in clauses (i) through (v) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 6.02, the Company will be permitted to classify (or later classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this covenant.

  • Restriction on Prepayment of Indebtedness The Borrower and the Guarantors will not, and will not permit their respective Subsidiaries to, (a) subject to §12.5, prepay, redeem, defease, purchase or otherwise retire the principal amount or pay any termination, breakage or similar payments under Derivative Contracts, in whole or in part, of any Indebtedness other than the Obligations and the Hedge Obligations after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default; provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (x) the prepayment of Indebtedness which is financed solely from the proceeds of a new loan which would otherwise be permitted by the terms of §8.1; and (y) the prepayment, redemption, defeasance or other retirement of the principal of Indebtedness secured by Real Estate which is satisfied solely from the proceeds of a sale of the Real Estate securing such Indebtedness; and (b) modify any document evidencing any Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) to accelerate the maturity date of such Indebtedness after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

  • Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries The Company shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than a Guarantor or the Issuer, to guarantee the payment of any First Lien Obligations, including any Indebtedness (or any interest on such Indebtedness) under the Senior Credit Facilities, the NXP Notes and the Existing Secured Notes unless: (1) such Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor, if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes; (2) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and shall not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against any Guarantor or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Person under its Guarantee or otherwise; and (3) such Restricted Subsidiary shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that: (A) such Guarantee has been duly executed and authorized; and (B) such Guarantee constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including, without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity.

  • Notation on Securities Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture affecting such series pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX may bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine, new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent and delivered in exchange for the Securities then outstanding.

  • Limitations on Indebtedness (a) Until the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both Rating Agencies (after which time the following covenant will no longer be in effect), the Company will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to, create, incur, assume, become liable for or guarantee the payment of (collectively, an “incurrence”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) unless, after giving effect thereto and the application of the proceeds therefrom, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on the date thereof would be at least 2.0 to 1.0. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture will not prevent the incurrence of: (i) Permitted Indebtedness, (ii) Refinancing Indebtedness, (iii) Non-Recourse Indebtedness, (iv) any Guarantee of Indebtedness of the Company represented by the Notes and (v) any guarantee of Indebtedness incurred under Credit Facilities in compliance with this Indenture. (c) For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that an item of Indebtedness may be incurred through the first paragraph of this covenant or by meeting the criteria of one or more of the types of Indebtedness described in the second paragraph of this covenant (or the definitions of the terms used therein), the Company, in its sole discretion, (i) may classify such item of Indebtedness under and comply with either of such paragraphs (or any of such definitions), as applicable, (ii) may classify and divide such item of Indebtedness into more than one of such paragraphs (or definitions), as applicable, and (iii) may elect to comply with such paragraphs (or definitions), as applicable, in any order. (d) The Company will not, and will not cause or permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, in any event incur any Indebtedness that purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) subordinated to any other Indebtedness of the Company or of such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is also by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) made expressly subordinated to the Notes or the Guarantee of such Guarantor, as the case may be, to the same extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to such other Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be.
