Limitation on Guarantees (a) The Company shall not permit any of its Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiaries guarantee, or are a co-issuer of, other capital markets debt securities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or guarantee all or a portion of, or are a co-borrower under, the Credit Agreement), other than a Guarantor, to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor unless:
Limitation on Guarantor Liability Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such 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 Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such 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 Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.
Limitation on Interest Each Bank, each Agent, Borrower, each other Credit Party and any other parties to the Loan Papers intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury Law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Papers shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate. None of Borrower, any other Credit Party, nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate and the provisions of this Section 14.6 shall control over all other provisions of the Loan Papers which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. Each Bank and Administrative Agent expressly disavow any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated. If (a) the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (b) any Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest are determined to be in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, or (c) any Bank or any other holder of any or all of the Obligations shall otherwise collect moneys which are determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the interest on any or all of the Obligations to an amount in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, then all such sums determined to constitute interest in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related Obligations or, at any Bank’s or such holder’s option, promptly returned to Borrower or the other payor thereof upon such determination. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, Administrative Agent, Banks, Borrower and the other Credit Parties (and any other payors or payees thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under applicable Law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the instrument evidencing the Obligations in accordance with the amounts outstanding from time to time thereunder and the Maximum Lawful Rate in order to lawfully charge the Maximum Lawful Rate.
Limitation on Guaranties The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, at any time Guaranty, assume, be obligated with respect to, or permit to be outstanding any Guaranty of, any obligation of any other Person other than (a) a guaranty by endorsement of negotiable instruments for collection in the ordinary course of business, or (b) obligations under agreements of the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries entered into in connection with leases of real property or the acquisition of services, supplies and equipment in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower or any of Restricted Subsidiaries, (c) Guaranties of Indebtedness incurred as permitted pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, or (d) as may be contained in any Loan Document including, without limitation, the Subsidiary Guaranty.
Limitation on Guarantors’ Liability Each Guarantor by its acceptance hereof and each Holder of a Security entitled to the benefits of the Guarantee hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee by such Guarantor pursuant to the Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Holder of a Security entitled to the benefits of the Guarantee and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agrees that the obligations of each Guarantor under the Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under the Guarantee, not result in the obligations of such Guarantor under the Guarantee constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law.
FUNDS AS PARTIES; LIMITATION ON FUND LIABILITIES (a) The Custodian acknowledges and agrees that the obligations assumed by each of the Funds hereunder shall be limited in all cases to the assets of the Fund and that the Custodian may not seek satisfaction of any such obligation from the officers, agents, employees, trustees, directors or shareholders of the Fund. With respect to each Fund organized as a Massachusetts business trust or other business trust (or Portfolio thereof) where the trustees, officers, employees or shareholders of such business trust (or Portfolio thereof) may be held personally liable for its obligations, the Custodian acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent such trustees or officers are regarded as entering into this Agreement, they do so only as trustees or officers and not individually and that the obligations of this Agreement are not binding upon any such trustee, officer, employee or shareholder individually, but are binding only upon the assets and property of said Fund (or Portfolio thereof). The Custodian hereby agrees that such trustees, officers, employees or shareholders shall not be personally liable under this Agreement and that the Custodian shall look solely to the property of the Fund (or Portfolio thereof) for the performance of the Agreement or payment of any claim under the Agreement.
Limitation on Liability of the Noteholders No Noteholder (including any Servicer on a Noteholder’s behalf, but only to the extent that the Servicing Agreement does not impose any other standard upon any Servicer, in which case the Servicing Agreement shall control) shall have any liability to any other Noteholder except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Noteholder. Each Subordinate Noteholder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the obligation of the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of such Subordinate Noteholder and that the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) shall have no liability whatsoever to such Subordinate Noteholder in connection with the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Noteholder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that such Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Each Subordinate Noteholder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the obligation of any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Non-Lead Servicer) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard (as if such standard was applicable to any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder as a “servicer” thereunder), each Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Non-Lead Servicer) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of such Subordinate Noteholder and that any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Non-Lead Servicer) shall have no liability whatsoever to such Subordinate Noteholder in connection with any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by a Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that the Non-Lead Servicer must act in accordance with the servicing standard under the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Noteholder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, any other Noteholder may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that such Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of each other Noteholder and that such Noteholder shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Noteholder in connection with such Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by such Noteholder to exercise such rights; provided, however, that such Noteholder shall not be protected against any liability to any other Noteholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence.
Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders No Note Holder shall have any liability to any other Note Holder with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Note Holder; provided, that, notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, each Servicer will nevertheless be subject to the obligations and standards (including the Servicing Standard) set forth in the related Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Note Holders acknowledge that, subject to the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, that each Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement.
Limitation on Obligations (a) The provisions of this Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section 9(a) with respect to the Maximum Liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and neither a Subsidiary Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section 9(a) with respect to the Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law.
