Additional Subsidiary Guarantors Clause Samples
The "Additional Subsidiary Guarantors" clause requires certain subsidiaries of a borrower to become guarantors under a loan or credit agreement. In practice, this means that if a company acquires or forms new subsidiaries, or if existing subsidiaries meet specified criteria (such as exceeding a financial threshold), those subsidiaries must formally agree to guarantee the borrower's obligations. This clause ensures that lenders have recourse to a broader group of entities within the corporate structure, thereby strengthening the overall credit support and reducing the lender's risk if the primary borrower defaults.

The Company shall cause any such Wholly Owned Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the Securities by executing and delivering to the Trustee (a) a supplemental indenture, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, which subjects such Person to the provisions (including the representations and warranties) of this Indenture as a Subsidiary Guarantor and (b) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized and executed by such Person and such supplemental indenture and such Person’s obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee and this Indenture constitute the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of such Person (subject to such customary exceptions concerning creditors’ rights and equitable principles as may be acceptable to the Trustee in its discretion).

(2) deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with its terms. Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes of the Indenture, subject to such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Subsidiary Guarantor when its Subsidiary Guarantee is released in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. In addition, to the extent the collective Consolidated Net Worth of the Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries, as of the date of the creation of, acquisition of or Investment in a Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary, exceeds $10.0 million, the Company shall, within 60 days after such date, cause one or more of such Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries to deliver to the Trustee such a supplemental indenture and opinion as specified in clauses (1) and (2) of the second preceding paragraph (and thereby cause such Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary(ies) to cease to be Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary(ies)), such that the collective Consolidated Net Worth of all remaining Non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries does not exceed $10.0 million in the aggregate.
