Common use of Successor Obligor Clause in Contracts

Successor Obligor. The indentures will provide that, unless otherwise specified in the securities resolution or supplemental indenture establishing a series of debt securities, we shall not consolidate with or merge into, or transfer all or substantially all of our assets to, any person in any transaction in which we are not the survivor, unless: ● the person is organized under the laws of the United States or a jurisdiction within the United States; ● the person assumes by supplemental indenture all of our obligations under the relevant indenture, the debt securities and any coupons; ● immediately after the transaction no Default (as defined below) exists; and ● we deliver to the trustee an officers’ certificate and opinion of counsel stating that the transaction complies with the foregoing requirements and that all conditions precedent provided for in the indenture relating to the transaction have been complied with. In such event, the successor will be substituted for us, and thereafter all of our obligations under the relevant indenture, the debt securities and any coupons will terminate. The indentures will provide that these limitations shall not apply if our board of directors makes a good faith determination that the principal purpose of the transaction is to change our state of incorporation.
