Maximum Funding Proceeds definition
Maximum Funding Proceeds the maximum amount of cash and cash proceeds that a Person and its Subsidiaries have on hand and/or have raised, using their best efforts (without any requirement to sell assets other than cash equivalents), to satisfy a BSI Litigation Funding Obligation, including all cash on hand, all cash equivalents that can be converted to cash, all available internally generated funds, the drawing of all undrawn capacity under existing credit facilities, the creation of and drawdown under new secured and unsecured credit facilities and term loans to the maximum extent practicable under the circumstances and the aggregate net proceeds from the issuance and sale of additional equity, debt and hybrid securities; provided, however, that (a) for a Person and its Subsidiaries this definition of Maximum Funding Proceeds shall exclude a Normal Operating Cash Balance and (b) for purposes of calculating the amount of Maximum Funding Proceeds, a Person and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to issue and sell more equity securities than can be underwritten on a firm commitment basis by one or more Qualified Investment Bankers at normal discount rates. For this purpose, such Person and its Subsidiaries shall be required to use their best efforts to raise the maximum amount of cash and net proceeds from such transactions, borrowings and debt securities sales as expeditiously as possible. In negotiating the terms of such transactions, borrowings and debt securities sales, the maximization of cash and net proceeds shall be given priority over the minimization of the costs of raising such proceeds, the minimization of restrictive covenants, the avoidance of the creation of liens on assets or the preservation of a debt rating.
