Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries Designate any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary only in accordance with the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” contained herein.
Indebtedness of Subsidiaries The Borrower shall not permit any Subsidiary to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness, except:
Subsidiaries; Equity Interests; Loan Parties (a) Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures, Partnerships and Equity Investments. Set forth on Schedule 5.20(a), is the following information which is true and complete in all respects as of the Closing Date and as of the last date such Schedule was required to be updated in accordance with Sections 6.02 and/or 6.13: (i) a complete and accurate list of all Subsidiaries, joint ventures and partnerships and other equity investments of the Loan Parties as of the Closing Date and as of the last date such Schedule was required to be updated in accordance with Sections 6.02 and/or 6.13, (ii) the number of shares of each class of Equity Interests in each Subsidiary outstanding, (iii) the number and percentage of outstanding shares of each class of Equity Interests owned by the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and (iv) the class or nature of such Equity Interests (i.e. voting, non-voting, preferred, etc.). The outstanding Equity Interests in all Subsidiaries are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and are owned free and clear of all Liens. There are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to the Equity Interests of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof, except as contemplated in connection with the Loan Documents.
Additional Restricted Subsidiaries Pursuant to Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement, certain Restricted Subsidiaries of the Loan Parties that were not in existence or not Restricted Subsidiaries on the date of the Credit Agreement are required to enter in this Agreement as Subsidiary Parties upon becoming Restricted Subsidiaries. Upon execution and delivery by the Collateral Agent and a Restricted Subsidiary of a Security Agreement Supplement, such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Party herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this Agreement.
any Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary The Issuer may designate any Subsidiary of the Issuer (including any existing Subsidiary and any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary unless such Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries owns any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or owns or holds any Lien on, any property of, the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than solely any Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated); provided that
Certain Subsidiaries Unless pursuant to Indebtedness which is authorized pursuant to this Agreement, the Borrower will not, and the Subsidiaries of the Borrower will not, permit any creditor of a Project Finance Subsidiary to have recourse to the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than such Project Finance Subsidiary) or any of their assets (other than (i) the stock or similar equity interest of the applicable Subsidiary or any Subsidiary which is an entity whose sole purpose and extent of business activities is to own the stock or similar equity interest of a Project Finance Subsidiary and (ii) with respect to a Permitted Derivative Obligation) other than recourse under Long-Term Guaranties.
Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries The Company will not at any time permit the sum of the consolidated assets of all of the Company’s Subsidiaries which are not Subsidiary Guarantors (the non-guarantor Subsidiaries being referred to collectively as the “Non-Obligor Subsidiaries”) to exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries consolidated assets. For the avoidance of doubt, Excluded Joint Ventures shall be disregarded for purposes of this Section 7.15.
Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” if the designation would not cause a Default. All outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the designated Unrestricted Subsidiary will be treated as an Investment made at the time of the designation and will either reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07(a) or be a Permitted Investment, as applicable. The amount of all such outstanding Investments will be the aggregate fair market value of such Investments at the time of the designation. The designation will not be permitted if such Investment would not be permitted as a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment at that time and if such Restricted Subsidiary does not otherwise meet the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of the Board Resolution giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the foregoing conditions and the conditions set forth in the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” and was permitted by Section 4.07. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet any of the requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09, the Company shall be in default of such Section 4.09. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Subsidiary of the Company shall be designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary during any Suspension Period.
Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries The Issuer shall not permit any of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries guarantee other capital markets debt securities of the Issuer or any Guarantor), other than a Guarantor, a Foreign Subsidiary or a Securitization Subsidiary, to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any other Guarantor unless:
Certain Obligations Respecting Subsidiaries (a) The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that (i) each of its Subsidiaries at all times is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary (except for any stock or other equity interests of such Subsidiary which is owned by a third party as of the Effective Date, as listed in Schedule IV hereto) and (ii) each of its Subsidiaries is and becomes a party to the Subsidiary Guarantee and the JCI/JNI Security Agreement, PROVIDED that, in the event of any Subsidiary organized as a partnership or limited liability company, the Borrower shall cause each of the partners or members thereof, as the case may be, to enter into a pledge agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent pursuant to which the Agent, on behalf of the Banks, shall be granted a first prior perfected security interest in all of the equity interests of such partnership or limited liability company to secure the obligations owing to the Banks hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, subject to no other Lien (and the organizational document for such partnership or limited liability company shall expressly authorize each such partner or member to so pledge its equity interests therein and shall contain no other restriction against the Agent enforcing such security interest and transferring such equity interests to a third party). In the event that any such additional shares of stock or other equity interests shall be issued by any Subsidiary of the Borrower, the Borrower agrees forthwith to, and to cause its Subsidiaries to, deliver to the Agent pursuant to the Security Documents the certificates (if any) evidencing such shares of stock or other equity interests, accompanied by undated stock powers executed in blank and to take such other action as the Agent shall request to perfect the security interest created therein pursuant to the Security Documents.
