Common use of Sharing among Secured Liabilities Clause in Contracts

Sharing among Secured Liabilities. (a) The Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that upon the foreclosure, sale, set-off or other realization against any of the Collateral which secures the Secured Liabilities (and not securing by its terms just the Indebtedness) (the “Shared Collateral”), the Secured Parties shall share in all of the proceeds of such Shared Collateral on a pari passu basis, ratably according to the Secured Liabilities owing to each Secured Party as specified in the following sentence. Proceeds from realization against such Shared Collateral shall be applied by the Agent as follows: (i) First to the Agent, with respect to fees and expenses accrued and outstanding (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses); and (ii) Second to the Secured Parties, ratably according to the Secured Liabilities owing to the Secured Parties. The Lenders by unanimous consent may determine from time to time whether any, and which portions, of the Collateral is to be Shared Collateral beyond the Collateral described in Section 3.1. (b) If any Secured Party has payment made to it of proceeds arising from the foreclosure, sale, set-off or other realization on any of the Shared Collateral pursuant to the remedies provided by the Collateral Documents in a greater proportion than that received by any other Secured Party (except for the Agent as specified in Subsection (a) above), such Secured Party shall (and each Lender agrees to cause any of its Affiliates which are such a Secured Party to) take such action as is necessary such that all Secured Parties shall share in the benefits of such Shared Collateral ratably in proportion to the Secured Liabilities owing to each Secured Party. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made. The foregoing sharing pertains solely to the realization against the Shared Collateral and the proceeds therefrom, and is not a general sharing arrangement regarding the Secured Hedge Providers and the Agent and the Lenders for other purposes (including without limitation payments by the Borrower and Subsidiaries from the Borrower’s and Subsidiaries’ general funds, including funds derived from the Shared Collateral or the other Collateral). The Agent and the Lenders shall have the right to receive, and the Borrower and Subsidiaries shall have the right and obligation to pay, all amounts owing as part of the Indebtedness to be paid by the Borrower and Subsidiaries to the Agent and the Lenders as and when due. The Secured Hedge Providers shall have the right to receive, and the Borrower and Subsidiaries shall have the right and obligation to pay, all amounts owing as part of the Secured Hedge Obligations to be paid by the Borrower and Subsidiaries to the Secured Hedge Providers as and when due. The Lenders shall have the right to receive, and the Borrower shall have the right and obligation to pay, all amounts owing as part of the Banking Services Obligations to be paid by the Borrower to the Lenders as and when due. The foregoing sharing arrangement pertains only to the proceeds arising from the foreclosure, sale, set-off or other realization pursuant to the remedies provided by the applicable Collateral Documents by the Agent, the Lenders and the Secured Hedge Providers on any of the Collateral which secures all the Secured Liabilities. (c) Should any payment or distribution from any such realization upon any Shared Collateral or proceeds thereof (except payments permitted by Subsection (b) above) be received by any Secured Party before either the Indebtedness has, or the Secured Hedge Obligations or the Banking Services Obligations have, as the case may be, been paid and satisfied in full and terminated such that no further liabilities will be incurred thereunder, that Secured Party shall (and each Lender shall cause any of its Affiliates which is a Secured Party to) deliver the same to the Agent in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement, without recourse, or assignment of that Secured Party where necessary), for application on the Secured Liabilities ratably as provided in Subsection (a) above, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by that Secured Party as property of the Agent. (d) The agreement by the Agent and the Lenders to so share the Shared Collateral with the Secured Hedge Providers is expressly conditioned upon and limited by (i) the right of the Agent and the Lenders, at any time and from time to time, to enter into such agreement or agreements with the Borrower and Subsidiaries as the Agent and the Lenders may deem proper extending the time of payment or increasing or renewing or otherwise altering the terms of all or any of the Indebtedness without notice to the Secured Hedge Providers and without in any way impairing or affecting this Agreement, (ii) the right of the Agent to release any portion or portions of the Collateral (including the Shared Collateral) from to time as the Agent and the Lenders may agree, and in connection therewith for the Agent to have the express power to release any Secured Hedged Provider’s lien on the Shared Collateral under the Collateral Documents insofar as it secures the Secured Hedge Obligations, without notice to or such Secured Hedge Provider’s consent, so long as such Collateral is simultaneously released insofar as it secures the Indebtedness; and (iii) the right of the Agent and the Lenders holding the Indebtedness to control all decisions and determinations in enforcing the Collateral Documents so long as any portion of the Indebtedness remains outstanding, and decisions and determinations of the Required Lenders in enforcing the Collateral Documents and in guiding the Agent in such matters shall be binding upon the Secured Hedge Providers, including without limitation when and whether to realize upon the Collateral (including the Shared Collateral), and when and whether to authorize the Agent at the pro rata expense of all the Secured Parties (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) to retain attorneys to seek judgment on the Collateral Documents. This Section 3.4 is expressly limited by the requirements and definitions in this Agreement for the creation of a Secured Hedge Obligation, and notwithstanding any provision in any commodity, interest rate or currency rate protection agreement to the contrary, liabilities thereunder which do not meet the requirements and definitions in this Agreement for the creation of a Secured Hedge Obligations shall not be secured by the Collateral or otherwise entitled to the benefits of this Section 3.4. The foregoing provisions of this Subsection 3.4(d) shall also apply with respect to the rights of the Agent and the Lenders with respect to any Lenders which are owed Banking Services Obligations. (e) This sharing of the Shared Collateral with respect to the Secured Liabilities shall remain in full force and effect not withstanding any filing of a petition for relief by or against the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or similar laws from time to time in effect and shall apply with full force and effect with respect to all such Shared Collateral covered by the Collateral Documents acquired by the Borrower or any Grantor after the date of such petition and all Indebtedness, Secured Hedge Obligations and Banking Services Obligations incurred after the date of such petition. Such sharing shall apply with full force and effect with respect to all Shared Collateral covered by the Collateral Documents from time to time, including without limitation pursuant to supplements or amendments to the Collateral Documents after the date hereof, subject to the foregoing preserved right of the Agent and the Lenders for partial releases. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, receivership, insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any or all of the Shared Collateral shall be paid or delivered directly to the Agent for application as provided in Subsection 3.4(a). (f) Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any Secured Hedge Provider for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent (i) may treat a Secured Hedge Provider as the payee of its Secured Hedge Obligations until the Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, signed by such Secured Hedge Provider in a form satisfactory to the Agent; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Secured Hedge Provider and shall not be responsible to any Secured Hedge Provider for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the Collateral Documents; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, or to inspect any property (including the books and records) of the Borrower and Subsidiaries; (v) shall not be responsible to any Secured Hedge Provider for the due execution, legality, validity, enforce ability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents; and (vi) shall incur no liability under or in respect to this Agreement or the Collateral Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. The Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Secured Hedge Provider by reason of this Agreement. The Agent shall not have any implied duties to the Secured Hedge Providers, or any obligation to the Secured Hedge Providers to take any action under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents except any actions specifically provided by such documents to be taken by it. The Agent shall have the same rights and privileges under this Agreement as any other Secured Hedge Provider and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Secured Hedge Provider” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the Agent in its individual capacity when applicable. The granting of benefits under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents to the Secured Hedge Providers is expressly conditioned upon the benefits and protections provided to the Agent under Article 9 of this Agreement applying with each force and effect to the Secured Hedge Providers. (g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 3.4 to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the provisions of Section 2.15 shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

Sharing among Secured Liabilities. (a) The Agent and the Lenders Banks hereby agree that upon the foreclosure, sale, set-off or other realization against any of the Collateral which secures the Secured Liabilities (and not securing by its terms just the Indebtedness) (the "Shared Collateral"), the Secured Parties shall share in all of the proceeds of such Shared Collateral on a pari passu basis, ratably according to the Secured Liabilities owing to each Secured Party as specified in the following sentence. Proceeds from realization against such Shared Collateral shall be applied by the Agent as follows: (i) First to To the Agent, with respect to fees and expenses accrued and outstanding (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses); and (ii) Second to To the Secured Parties, ratably according to the Secured Liabilities owing to the Secured Parties. The Lenders Banks by unanimous consent may determine from time to time whether any, and which portions, of the Collateral is to be Shared Collateral beyond the Collateral described in Section 3.1. (b) If any Secured Party has payment made to it of proceeds arising from the foreclosure, sale, set-off or other realization on any of the Shared Collateral pursuant to the remedies provided by the Collateral Documents in a greater proportion than that received by any other Secured Party (except for the Agent as specified in Subsection (a) above), such Secured Party shall (and each Lender Bank agrees to cause any of its Affiliates which are such a Secured Party to) take such action as is necessary such that all Secured Parties shall share in the benefits of such Shared Collateral ratably in proportion to the Secured Liabilities owing to each Secured Party. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made. The foregoing sharing pertains solely to the realization against the Shared Collateral and the proceeds therefrom, and is not a general sharing arrangement regarding the Secured Hedge Providers and the Agent and the Lenders Banks for other purposes (including without limitation payments by the Borrower and Subsidiaries from the Borrower’s 's and Subsidiaries' general funds, including funds derived from the Shared Collateral or the other Collateral). The Agent and the Lenders Banks shall have the right to receive, and the Borrower and Subsidiaries shall have the right and obligation to pay, all amounts owing as part of the Indebtedness to be paid by the Borrower and Subsidiaries to the Agent and the Lenders Banks as and when due. The Secured Hedge Providers shall have the right to receive, and the Borrower and Subsidiaries shall have the right and obligation to pay, all amounts owing as part of the Secured Hedge Obligations to be paid by the Borrower and Subsidiaries to the Secured Hedge Providers as and when due. The Lenders shall have the right to receive, and the Borrower shall have the right and obligation to pay, all amounts owing as part of the Banking Services Obligations to be paid by the Borrower to the Lenders as and when due. The foregoing sharing arrangement pertains only to the proceeds arising from the foreclosure, sale, set-off or other realization pursuant to the remedies provided by the applicable Collateral Documents by the Agent, the Lenders Banks and the Secured Hedge Providers on any of the Collateral which secures all the Secured Liabilities. (c) Should any payment or distribution from any such realization upon any Shared Collateral or proceeds thereof (except payments permitted by Subsection (b) above) be received by any Secured Party before either the Indebtedness has, or the Secured Hedge Obligations or the Banking Services Obligations have, as the case may be, been paid and satisfied in full and terminated such that no further liabilities will be incurred thereunder, that Secured Party shall (and each Lender Bank shall cause any of its Affiliates which is a Secured Party to) deliver the same to the Agent in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement, without recourse, or assignment of that Secured Party where necessary), for application on the Secured Liabilities ratably as provided in Subsection (a) above, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by that Secured Party as property of the Agent. (d) The agreement by the Agent and the Lenders Banks to so share the Shared Collateral with the Secured Hedge Providers is expressly conditioned upon and limited by (i) the right of the Agent and the LendersBanks, at any time and from time to time, to enter into such agreement or agreements with the Borrower and Subsidiaries as the Agent and the Lenders Banks may deem proper extending the time of payment or increasing or renewing or otherwise altering the terms of all or any of the Indebtedness without notice to the Secured Hedge Providers and without in any way impairing or affecting this Agreement, (ii) the right of the Agent to release any portion or portions of the Collateral (including the Shared Collateral) from to time as the Agent and the Lenders Banks may agree, and in connection therewith for the Agent to have the express power to release any Secured Hedged Provider’s 's lien on the Shared Collateral under the Collateral Documents insofar as it secures the Secured Hedge Obligations, without notice to or such Secured Hedge Provider’s 's consent, so long as such Collateral is simultaneously released insofar as it secures the Indebtedness; and (iii) the right of the Agent and the Lenders Banks holding the Indebtedness to control all decisions and determinations in enforcing the Collateral Documents so long as any portion of the Indebtedness remains outstanding, and decisions and determinations of the Required Lenders Banks in enforcing the Collateral Documents and in guiding the Agent in such matters shall be binding upon the Secured Hedge Providers, including without limitation when and whether to realize upon the Collateral (including the Shared Collateral), and when and whether to authorize the Agent at the pro rata expense of all the Secured Parties (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) to retain attorneys to seek judgment on the Collateral Documents. This Section 3.4 is expressly limited by the requirements and definitions in this Agreement for the creation of a Secured Hedge Obligation, and notwithstanding any provision in any commodity, interest rate or currency rate protection agreement to the contrary, liabilities thereunder which do not meet the requirements and definitions in this Agreement for the creation of a Secured Hedge Obligations shall not be secured by the Collateral or otherwise entitled to the benefits of this Section 3.4. The foregoing provisions of this Subsection 3.4(d) shall also apply with respect to the rights of the Agent and the Lenders with respect to any Lenders which are owed Banking Services Obligations. (e) This sharing of the Shared Collateral with respect to the Secured Liabilities shall remain in full force and effect not withstanding any filing of a petition for relief by or against the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or similar laws from time to time in effect and shall apply with full force and effect with respect to all such Shared Collateral covered by the Collateral Documents acquired by the Borrower or any Grantor after the date of such petition and all Indebtedness, Secured Hedge Obligations and Banking Services Obligations incurred after the date of such petition. Such sharing shall apply with full force and effect with respect to all Shared Collateral covered by the Collateral Documents from time to time, including without limitation pursuant to supplements or amendments to the Collateral Documents after the date hereof, subject to the foregoing preserved right of the Agent and the Lenders for partial releases. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, receivership, insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any or all of the Shared Collateral shall be paid or delivered directly to the Agent for application as provided in Subsection 3.4(a). (f) Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any Secured Hedge Provider for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent (i) may treat a Secured Hedge Provider as the payee of its Secured Hedge Obligations until the Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, signed by such Secured Hedge Provider in a form satisfactory to the Agent; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Secured Hedge Provider and shall not be responsible to any Secured Hedge Provider for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the Collateral Documents; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, or to inspect any property (including the books and records) of the Borrower and Subsidiaries; (v) shall not be responsible to any Secured Hedge Provider for the due execution, legality, validity, enforce ability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents; and (vi) shall incur no liability under or in respect to this Agreement or the Collateral Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. The Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Secured Hedge Provider by reason of this Agreement. The Agent shall not have any implied duties to the Secured Hedge Providers, or any obligation to the Secured Hedge Providers to take any action under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents except any actions specifically provided by such documents to be taken by it. The Agent shall have the same rights and privileges under this Agreement as any other Secured Hedge Provider and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Secured Hedge Provider” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the Agent in its individual capacity when applicable. The granting of benefits under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents to the Secured Hedge Providers is expressly conditioned upon the benefits and protections provided to the Agent under Article 9 of this Agreement applying with each force and effect to the Secured Hedge Providers. (g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 3.4 to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the provisions of Section 2.15 shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.This
