Assignments and Participations The Lenders will be permitted to assign loans and commitments under the CPLV Mezz Facility with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, but which consent under the CPLV Mezz Facility shall be deemed granted if the Borrower fails to respond to a request for consent by a Lender within ten business days of such request being made); provided, that such consent of the Borrower shall not be required (i) if such assignment is made, in the case of the CPLV Mezz Facility, to another Lender under the CPLV Mezz Facility or an affiliate or approved fund of a Lender under the Term Facility or (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default relating to payment default or bankruptcy. All assignments will also require the consent of the Agent (subject to exceptions consistent with the Documentation Precedent) not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Each assignment, in the case of the CPLV Mezz Facility, will be in an amount of an integral multiple of $1,000,000. The Agent will receive a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, payable by the assignor and/or the assignee, with each assignment. Assignments will be by novation. The Lenders will be permitted to sell participations in loans subject to the restrictions set forth herein and consistent with the Documentation Precedent. Voting rights of participants shall (i) be limited to matters in respect of (a) increases in commitments of such participant, (b) reductions of principal, interest or fees payable to such participant, (c) extensions of final maturity or scheduled amortization of the loans or commitments in which such participant participates and (d) releases of all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees, or all or substantially all of the Collateral and (ii) for clarification purposes, not include the right to vote on waivers of defaults or events of default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, assignments (and, to the extent such list is made available to all Lenders, participations) shall not be permitted to ineligible institutions identified to the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date and, with the consent of the Agent, thereafter; provided that the Agent shall not be held liable or responsible for any monitoring or enforcing of the foregoing. Assignments shall not be deemed non-pro rata payments. Non-pro rata prepayments will be permitted to the extent required to permit “extension” transactions and “replacement” facility transactions (with existing and/or new Lenders), subject to customary restrictions consistent with the Documentation Precedent. Assignments to the Sponsors and their respective affiliates (other than the Borrower and its subsidiaries) (each, an “Affiliated Lender”) shall be permitted subject to customary restrictions consistent with the Documentation Precedent.
Assignments and Participation (a) Each Lender may assign to one or more banks or other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the Security Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) with the prior written consent of the Borrower to the extent the assignee thereunder is not then a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) to the extent the assignee thereunder is not then a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the amount of the Commitment or Note(s) to be held by such assignee (after giving effect to such assignment and any other assignments being made concurrently therewith to the same assignee by one or more other Lenders) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000, unless such assignment is of the entire amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment, and (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, a Lender Assignment, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $2,500. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Lender Assignment, which effective date shall be at least five Business Days after the execution thereof, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Lender Assignment, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it to an assignee pursuant to such Lender Assignment, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Lender Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto); provided, however, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have declared all Advances to be immediately due and payable hereunder a Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations without the prior written consent of the Borrower but otherwise in accordance with this Section.

Certain Other Assignments and Participations In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this Section 10.6, any Lender may assign and/or pledge all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including any Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or such other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no Lender, as between Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.
Assignments; Participations (a) Any Lender may, with the written consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees (provided that no consent of the Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment and delegation by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender) (each an “Assignee”) all, or any ratable part of all, of the Loans, the Commitments and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (provided that, unless an assignor Lender has assigned and delegated all of its Loans and Commitments, no such assignment and/or delegation shall be permitted unless, after giving effect thereto, such assignor Lender retains a Commitment in a minimum amount of $5,000,000); provided, however, that the Borrower and the Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender and the Assignee; (ii) such Lender and its Assignee shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit F (“Assignment and Acceptance”) together with any note or notes subject to such assignment and (iii) unless the assignment is to a Lender’s Affiliate, the assignor Lender or Assignee has paid to the Agent a processing fee in the amount of $3,000.
Assignment and Participation Lender may pledge or otherwise hypothecate all or any portion of this Agreement or grant participations herein (provided Lender acts as agent for any participants, except as provided below) or in any of its rights and security hereunder to an Eligible Assignee; provided, that in the absence of an Event of Default, Lender shall not grant such a participation to an Eligible Assignee (other than an Affiliate of Lender) without Borrower’s consent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed. Lender may also assign all or any part of the Loan and Lender’s obligations in connection therewith to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided, that in the absence of an Event of Default, Lender shall not assign all or a portion of its Loan to an Eligible Assignee (other than an Affiliate of Lender) without Borrower’s consent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed. Lender shall notify Borrower in advance of the identity of any proposed Eligible Assignee. With respect to assignments (and not participations) of this Agreement or any of the rights hereunder, upon delivery to (and in the absence of an Event of Default, the consent of Borrower contemplated above, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed) Borrower of an executed copy of the Eligible Assignee’s assignment and acceptance (a) each such Eligible Assignee shall be deemed to be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated to such Eligible Assignee, such Eligible Assignee shall have the rights and obligations of Lender hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and other related documents (b) Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated by it, shall be released from its obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, the obligation to fund the Eligible Assignee’s share of the Loan) and other related documents. Within five Business Days after receipt of a copy of the executed assignment and acceptance document, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a new promissory note, as applicable (for delivery to the relevant Eligible Assignee), in the form of Exhibit A hereto but substituting Eligible Assignee’s name and evidencing such Eligible Assignee’s assigned portion of the Loan and a replacement promissory note, as applicable, in the principal amount of the Loan retained by Lender (such promissory note to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the promissory note then held by Lender). The replacement promissory note shall be dated the date of the predecessor promissory note. Lender shall xxxx the predecessor promissory note “exchanged” and deliver it to Borrower. Accrued interest on that part of the predecessor promissory note evidenced by the new promissory note held by the Eligible Assignee, and accrued fees, shall be paid as provided in the assignment agreement between Lender and to the Eligible Assignee. Accrued interest on that part of the predecessor promissory note evidenced by the replacement promissory note held by Lender shall be paid to Lender. Accrued interest and accrued fees shall be so apportioned between the promissory note and paid at the same time or times provided in the predecessor promissory note and in this Agreement. Borrower authorizes Lender to disclose to any prospective Eligible Assignee any financial or other information pertaining to Borrower or the Loan subject to standard confidentiality provisions and Lender’s obligations of confidentiality set forth in Section 9.18. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Agreement, including this Section 9.2, Lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Transaction Documents and other related documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release Lender from its obligations thereunder.
Assignments and Participations Binding Effect (a) This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by ITG, the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties signatory hereto and the Agent and when the Agent shall have been notified by each Lender and the initial L/C Issuer that such Lender or L/C Issuer has executed it. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, ITG, the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties hereto (in each case except for Article VIII), the Agent, each Lender and L/C Issuer party hereto and, to the extent provided in Section 8.11, each other Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 8.9), none of ITG, any Borrower, any other Credit Party, any L/C Issuer or the Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein.
Participations and Assignments (a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Persons that extends secured commercial loans in its ordinary course of business and has assets or capital of at least $100,000,000 (other than (i) a natural person or (ii) any Defaulting Lender or its wholly-owned subsidiaries or its other Affiliates) (any such Person, an “Assignee”) all or any portion of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loans and also such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower (all of which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and shall not be required for an assignment by a Lender to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender). Except as Administrative Agent may otherwise agree (and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents in writing, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), any such assignment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or, if less, the remaining Loan held by the assigning Lender. Borrower and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Assignee until Administrative Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (an “Assignment Agreement”) executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing fee of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000). No assignment may be made to any Person if at the time of such assignment Borrower would be obligated to pay any greater amount under Sections 3.1 or 3.3 to the Assignee than Borrower is then obligated to pay to the assigning Lender under such Sections (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, Borrower will not be required to pay such greater amounts). Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section 12.15 shall be treated as the sale of a participation hereunder. Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent to any assignment requiring its consent hereunder unless Borrower has expressly objected to such assignment within three (3) Business Days after notice thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) no consent of Borrower or Administrative Agent shall be required for any assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (provided that no assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or its wholly-owned subsidiaries or its other Affiliates) and (y) the consent of each Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).
