Guaranty Unconditional The obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:
Obligations of Guarantors Unconditional Nothing contained in this Article Twelve or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities or the Guarantees is intended to or shall impair, as among each of the Guarantors and the Holders of the Securities, the obligation of each Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of and interest on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Guarantee of such Guarantor, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of any Guarantor other than the holders of Guarantor Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Holder of any Security or the Trustee on their behalf from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article Twelve of the holders of Guarantor Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of any Guarantor received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Article Twelve shall restrict the right of the Trustee or the Holders of Securities to take any action to declare the Securities to be due and payable prior to their stated maturity pursuant to Section 6.01 or to pursue any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, however, that all Guarantor Senior Indebtedness of any Guarantor then due and payable shall first be paid in full before the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee are entitled to receive any direct or indirect payment from such Guarantor of principal of or interest on the Securities pursuant to such Guarantor's Guarantee.
Guarantor’s Obligations Unconditional The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and unconditional obligations of each Guarantor, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, set-off, deduction, diminution, abatement, recoupment, suspension, deferment, reduction or defense based upon any claim each Guarantor or any other person may have against the Company or any other person, and to the full extent permitted by applicable law shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstance or condition whatsoever (whether or not each Guarantor or the Company shall have any knowledge or notice thereof), including:
Limitation on Subsidiary Guarantor Liability Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Subsidiary Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article Ten, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment for distribution under its Subsidiary Guarantee is entitled to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the adjusted net assets of each Subsidiary Guarantor.
Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional (a) Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, upon this Guaranty or acceptance of this Guaranty; the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guaranty; and all dealings between the Borrower or the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty. Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or itself with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by it or the Borrower against the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Guaranteed Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, in bankruptcy or in any other instance or (iv) any other defense, set-off or counterclaim of a guarantor or a surety. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent may, but shall be under no obligation, to pursue such rights and remedies that it may have against the Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower or any such other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law or equity, of the Administrative Agent against the Guarantor. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantor and its successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and their successors, permitted endorsees, permitted transferees and permitted assigns, until all the Obligations and the Guaranteed Obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall have been satisfied by payment in full, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower may be free from any due and payable Obligations.
Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Purchasers upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Company and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Purchasers, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives to the extent permitted by law diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Company or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Purchasers, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance or fraud by Purchasers) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Company or any other Person against the Purchasers, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Company or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Company for the Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Purchasers may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as they may have against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Purchasers to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Purchasers against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof, “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
Release of a Guarantor (a) Upon (i) the sale or disposition of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor (other than the Company) by the Company in compliance with Section 4.16 or the consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into any Person in compliance with Article 5, in each case, (A) other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (B) in a transaction following which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) the liquidation or dissolution of any Guarantor (other than the Company) in accordance with this Indenture, such Guarantor’s Guarantee pursuant to this Article 10 shall be released, and such Guarantor shall be deemed released from all Obligations under this Indenture and the Securities without any further action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Any Guarantor not so released or the entity surviving such Guarantor, as applicable, shall remain or be liable under its Guarantee as provided in this Article 10. Concurrently with the defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Securities under Article 8 hereof, the Guarantors shall be released from all of their obligations under this Indenture and the Securities. In addition, a Guarantor’s Guarantee will also be released and such Guarantor will also be released from all Obligations under this Indenture and the Securities (x)(1) if such Guarantor is released from any and all guarantees of Indebtedness of the Issuer and the Company and (2) if such Guarantor will remain a Subsidiary of the Company, it has no other outstanding Indebtedness other than Indebtedness which could be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor of the Securities on the date of the proposed release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee, (y) if the Company designates such Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.03 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” or (z) the Issuer exercises its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option as described in Section 8.02 or if the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms hereof.
Obligation of Company Unconditional Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Notes is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal of and interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon, and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article.
Unconditional Guarantees For value received, the Guarantors hereby fully, irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely guarantee to the Owners and to the Trustee the due and punctual payment of the Company Obligations, when and as such Company Obligations shall become due and payable according to the terms of the Indenture and this Agreement. The guarantees by the Guarantors set forth in this Section 2 of Exhibit A are referred to herein as the “Guarantees.” Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantors’ liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Company Obligations and would be owed by the Company under the Agreement but for the fact that they are unenforceable, reduced, limited, impaired, suspended or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Company. Failing payment when due of any amount guaranteed pursuant to the Guarantees, for whatever reason, each Guarantor will be obligated (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) to pay the same immediately to the Trustee, without set-off or counterclaim or other reduction whatsoever (whether for taxes, withholding or otherwise). Each Guarantee hereunder is intended to be a general, unsecured, senior obligation of each Guarantor and will rank pari passu in right of payment with all indebtedness of such Guarantor that is not, by its terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantee of such Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its obligations hereunder shall be full, irrevocable, unconditional and absolute, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Company Obligations, the Guarantees or this Agreement, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any party with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby agrees that in the event of a default in payment of the Company Obligations under this Agreement, whether at the maturity, upon redemption or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of the Owners or, subject to Section 9.04 of the Indenture, by the Owners, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, directly against the Guarantors to enforce the Guarantees without first proceeding against the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Section 2 of Exhibit A shall be as aforesaid full, irrevocable, unconditional and absolute and shall not be impaired, modified, discharged, released or limited by any occurrence or condition whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any compromise, settlement, release, waiver, renewal, extension, indulgence or modification of, or any change in, any of the obligations and liabilities of the Company or such Guarantor contained in the Indenture or this Agreement, (ii) any impairment, modification, release or limitation of the liability of the Company, such Guarantor or any of their estates in bankruptcy, or any remedy for the enforcement thereof, resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of any applicable Bankruptcy Law, as amended, or other statute or from the decision of any court, (iii) the assertion or exercise by the Company, such Guarantor, the Trustee or the Issuer of any rights or remedies under the Indenture or this Agreement or their delay in or failure to assert or exercise any such rights or remedies, (iv) the assignment or the purported assignment of any property as security for any of the Bonds, including all or any part of the rights of the Company or such Guarantor under the Indenture or this Agreement, (v) the extension of the time for payment by the Company or such Guarantor of any payments or other sums or any part thereof owing or payable under any of the terms and provisions of any of the Bonds or the Indenture or this Agreement or of the time for performance by the Company or such Guarantor of any other obligations under or arising out of any such terms and provisions or the extension or the renewal of any thereof, (vi) the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation of the Company or such Guarantor set forth in the Indenture or this Agreement, (vii) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets, marshaling of assets and liabilities, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment of, or other similar proceeding affecting, the Company or any of the Guarantors or any of their respective assets, or the disaffirmance of any of the Bonds, the Guarantees or the Indenture or this Agreement in any such proceeding, (viii) the release or discharge of the Company or such Guarantor from the performance or observance of any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in any of such instruments by operation of law, (ix) the unenforceability of any of the Bonds, the Guarantees, the Indenture or this Agreement, (x) any change in the name, business, capital structure, corporate existence, or ownership of the Company or such Guarantor, or (xi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, a surety or such Guarantor. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby (i) waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, notice of acceptance, filing of claims with a court in the event of the merger, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or such Guarantor, and all demands and notices whatsoever, (ii) acknowledges that any agreement, instrument or document evidencing the Guarantees may be transferred and that the benefit of its obligations hereunder shall extend to each holder of any agreement, instrument or document evidencing the Guarantees without notice to them and (iii) covenants that its Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the Guarantees. Each Guarantor further agrees that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if at any time all or any part of any payment theretofore applied by any Person to any Guarantee is, or must be, rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Guarantor, such Guarantee shall, to the extent that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence notwithstanding such application, and the Guarantees shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such application had not been made. The Guarantors shall be subrogated to all rights of the Owners, the Issuer and the Trustee against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by the Guarantors pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture and this Agreement; provided, however, that the Guarantors shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation with respect to any of the Company Obligations until all of the Bonds and the Guarantees thereof shall have been indefeasibly paid in full or discharged. A director, officer, employee, stockholder, partner or member, as such, of the Guarantors shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Guarantors under the Indenture or this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Trustee, the Issuer or the Owners, any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Section 2 of Exhibit A and the Guarantees shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any rights, power, privilege or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies. The rights and remedies herein provided for are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided in law or equity. Nothing contained in this Section 2 of Exhibit A shall limit the right of the Trustee, the Issuer or the Owners to take any action to accelerate the maturity of the Bonds pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Indenture or to pursue any rights or remedies hereunder or under applicable law.
