Subsidiaries of the Company The Company does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any corporation, association or other entity other than the subsidiaries listed in Exhibit 21 to the Registration Statement.
Unrestricted Subsidiaries (a) The Borrower may at any time designate, by a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary; provided that (1) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (2) the Borrower is in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the Financial Performance Covenants immediately after giving effect to such designation as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter of the Borrower for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.04, (3) such Unrestricted Subsidiary does not own, directly or indirectly, any Equity Interests of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and (4) no Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it is a “Restricted Subsidiary” for the purpose of the Existing Notes, any Permitted Junior Debt or any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to any of the foregoing. The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary (as applicable) therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the net book value of all such Person’s outstanding Investment therein. (b) The Borrower may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and an incurrence of Liens by a Restricted Subsidiary on the property of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (i) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 6.01 and such Liens are permitted under Section 6.02, (ii) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence immediately following such designation, (iii) the Borrower is in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the Financial Performance Covenants immediately after giving effect to such designation as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter of the Borrower for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and (iv) such Subsidiary becomes a Subsidiary Loan Party to the extent required by Section 5.10 and the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement is satisfied with respect to such Subsidiary and with respect to any Equity Interest in or Indebtedness of such Subsidiary owned by or on behalf of any Loan Party.
Subsidiaries All of the direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company are set forth on Schedule 3.1(a). The Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or other equity interests of each Subsidiary free and clear of any Liens, and all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities. If the Company has no subsidiaries, all other references to the Subsidiaries or any of them in the Transaction Documents shall be disregarded.
Excluded Subsidiaries (a) The Borrower will not permit any Excluded Subsidiary to (i) own or hold any Lien on any property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party, (ii) incur any Indebtedness that is not Non-Recourse Debt, (iii) enter into any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party that is not expressly permitted by Section 6.09 or (iv) directly or indirectly own any Indebtedness of or Equity Interests in, or have any other investments in, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party. (b) Each Excluded Subsidiary shall be a Person with respect to which neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Loan Party has any direct or indirect obligation to (i) subscribe for additional Equity Interests, (ii) maintain or preserve such Person's financial condition or to cause such Person to achieve any specified levels of operating results or (iii) except to the extent permitted by Section 6.04, otherwise guarantee performance or payment of any obligations of such Person. (c) If, at any time, any Excluded Subsidiary fails to meet the requirements set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section, such Subsidiary shall thereafter cease to be an Excluded Subsidiary for purposes of this Agreement and, as of such date, (i) any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Subsidiary Loan Party, (ii) any Liens on the property of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Liens on the property of a Subsidiary Loan Party, (iii) any investments in such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be investments in a Subsidiary Loan Party as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness, investments or Liens are not permitted to be incurred or to exist pursuant to this Agreement, the Borrower shall be in default hereunder) and (iv) the Borrower shall promptly comply with the requirements of Section 5.12 and 5.13 with respect to such Subsidiary.
