NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, it is mutually covenanted and agreed for the equal and ratable benefit of all Holders of the Notes as follows, effective upon execution hereof by the Trustee:
DEFINITIONS
For all purposes of this Supplement, except as otherwise stated herein:
(1) capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined in this Supplement shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Original Indenture;
(2) all other terms used herein which are defined in the Trust Indenture Act, either directly or by reference thereto, have the meanings assigned to them therein;
(3) all accounting terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards;
(4) any reference to an “Article” or a “Section” refers to an Article or Section, as the case may be, of this Supplement; and
(5) the following terms shall have the respective meanings assigned them below:
“Supplement” shall have the meaning set forth in the recitals.
“Indenture” shall have the meaning set forth in the recitals.
“Original Indenture” shall have the meaning set forth in the recitals.
“Notes” shall have the meaning set forth in the recitals.
“Guarantor” shall have the meaning set forth in the preamble.
“Guarantee” shall have the meaning set forth in the recitals.
“Obligations” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 201 of this Supplement.
THE GUARANTEES
The Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, on an unsubordinated and unsecured basis, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to each Holder of the Notes and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and any other amounts due under the Notes and all other obligations of the Company under the Indenture (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Obligations”). The obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee rank equally in right of payment with other Indebtedness of the Guarantor, except to the extent such other Indebtedness is expressly subordinate to the obligations arising under the Guarantee. The Guarantor further agrees (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under this Article Two, notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.
2
The Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by: (i) the failure of any Holder of Notes to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other person under the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder of Notes or the Trustee for the Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder of Notes to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; or (vi) any change in the ownership of the Company.
The Guarantor further agrees that the Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder of Notes to any security held for payment of the Obligations.
The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.
The Guarantor further agrees that the Guarantees shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder of Notes upon the bankruptcy, concurso mercantil or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.
In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder of Notes has at law or in equity against the Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, the Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders of Notes an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations then due and owing (to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law).
The Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders of Notes, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in the Indenture for the purposes of the Guarantees, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby and (ii) in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of the Guarantee.
The Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders of Notes in enforcing any rights under this Article Two.
Section 202. Limitation on Liability; Termination and Discharge.
The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to all other liabilities (fixed and contingent) of the Guarantor, result in the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law.
3
Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder of Notes against the Company or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee or any Holder of Notes for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall the Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company in respect of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustee and the Holder of Notes by the Company on account of the Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holder of Notes, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly indorsed by the Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Obligations.
