(b) | Each Grantor (as defined in the Security Agreement), Borrower, Subsidiary of Administrative Borrower (each, an ‘Obligor’) irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to Agent, on each date that a payment is due in connection with the Secured Obligations (notwithstanding Section 5.19(a), as defined in the Security Agreement), an amount equal to the Secured Obligations owed by such Obligor due on such date (the ‘Parallel Debt Undertaking’). |
(c) | The rights of Agent under Section 5.19(b) are several and independent of any right that any Lender or Bank Product Provider may have under the Secured Obligations. |
