Disqualified Institutions means those Persons (the list of all such Persons, the “Disqualified Institutions List”) that are (i) identified in writing by the Company to the Administrative Agent prior to the initial allocation of the loans to be funded on the Closing Date, (ii) competitors of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than bona fide fixed income investors or debt funds) that are identified in writing by the Company from time to time or (iii) Affiliates of such Persons set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above (in the case of Affiliates of such Persons set forth in clause (ii) above, other than bona fide fixed income investors or debt funds) that are either (a) identified in writing by the Company from time to time or (b) clearly identifiable on the basis of such Affiliate’s name; provided, that, to the extent Persons are identified as Disqualified Institutions in writing by the Company to the Administrative Agent after the Closing Date pursuant to clauses (ii) or (iii)(a), the inclusion of such Persons as Disqualified Institutions shall not retroactively apply to prior assignments or participations in respect of any Loan under this Agreement. Until the disclosure of the identity of a Disqualified Institution to the Lenders generally by the Administrative Agent, such Person shall not constitute a Disqualified Institution for purposes of a sale of a participation in a Loan (as opposed to an assignment of a Loan) by a Lender; provided, that no disclosure of the Disqualified Institutions List (or the identity of any Person that constitutes a Disqualified Institution) to the Lenders shall be made by the Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may from time to time in its sole discretion remove any entity from the Disqualified Institutions List (or otherwise modify such list to exclude any particular entity), and such entity removed or excluded from the Disqualified Institutions List shall no longer be a Disqualified Institution for any purpose under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
Disqualified Institutions shall exclude any Person that the Borrower has designated as no longer being a “Disqualified Institution” by written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Person who becomes a Disqualified Institution after the date on which it entered into a binding agreement to purchase all or a portion of the rights and obligations of an assigning Lender, such Person shall not retroactively be disqualified from being or becoming a Lender.
Disqualified Institutions means (a) those Persons that have been specified in writing by the Parent Borrower or any Sponsor to the Administrative Agent prior to February 11, 2014 and (b) those Persons that are competitors that are operating companies and their Affiliates that have been subsequently identified in writing by the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent (other than any Affiliate that is (i) a financial investor in such competitor and is not an operating company or an Affiliate of an operating company (other than such competitor) and (ii) a bona fide diversified debt fund).
