Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders With the consent (evidenced as provided in Article X) of the Majority in Interest of Certificate Holders, the Owner Trustee (when authorized by the Owner Participant) and the Indenture Trustee may, from time to time and at any time, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders; provided, however, that, without the consent of each Holder and each Liquidity Provider, no such amendment of or supplement to this Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto, or modification of the terms of, or consent under, any thereof, shall (a) modify any of the provisions of Section 7.11 hereof or this Section 13.02, (b) reduce the amount or extend the time of payment of any amount owing or payable under any Certificate or reduce the interest payable on any Certificate (except that only the consent of the Holder shall be required for any decrease in any amounts of or the rate of interest payable on such Certificate or any extension for the time of payment of any amount payable under such Certificate), or alter or modify the provisions of Article V hereof with respect to the order of priorities in which distributions thereunder shall be made as among Holders of different Series of Certificates or as between the Holder and the Owner Trustee or the Owner Participant or with respect to the amount or time of payment of any such distribution, or alter or modify the circumstances under which a Make-Whole Premium shall be payable, or alter the currency in which any amount payable under any Certificate is to be paid, or impair the right of any Holder to commence legal proceedings to enforce a right to receive payment hereunder, (c) reduce, modify or amend any indemnities in favor of any Holder or in favor of or to be paid by the Owner Participant (except as consented to by each Person adversely affected thereby), or (d) create or permit the creation of any Lien on the Trust Indenture Estate or any part thereof prior to or pari passu with the Lien of this Indenture, except as expressly permitted herein, or deprive any Holder of the benefit of the Lien of this Indenture on the Trust Indenture Estate, except as provided in Section 7.02 hereof or in connection with the exercise of remedies under Article VII. This Section 13.02 shall not apply to any indenture or indentures supplemental hereto permitted by, and complying with the terms of, Section 13.06 hereof. Upon the request of the Owner Trustee (at the direction of the Owner Participant) and upon the filing with the Indenture Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders and other documents, if any, required by Section 10.01, the Indenture Trustee shall join with the Owner Trustee and the Lessee in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Indenture Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Indenture Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. Promptly after the execution by the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Lessee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice thereof by first-class mail to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the registry books of the Registrar, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.
With Consent of Holders (a) The Issuer, the Note Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes without notice to any Holder but with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Subject to Section 6.4, the Holder or Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may waive compliance by the Issuer and the Note Guarantors with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not:
(i) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;
(ii) reduce the rate of or change or have the effect of changing the time for payment of interest, including Defaulted Interest, on any Notes;
(iii) reduce the principal of or change or have the effect of changing the fixed maturity of any Notes, or change the date on which any Notes may be subject to redemption, or reduce the redemption price therefor;
(iv) make any Notes payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;
(v) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture entitling each Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes on or after the due date thereof or to bring suit to enforce such payment, or permitting Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes to waive Defaults or Events of Default;
(vi) amend, change or modify in any material respect any obligations of the Issuer to make and consummate a Change of Control Offer in respect of a Change of Control that has occurred or make and consummate an Asset Sale Offer with respect to any Asset Sale that has been consummated;
(vii) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture described under Section 3.21 that adversely affects the rights of any Holder or amend the terms of the Notes in a way that would result in a loss of exemption from Taxes; or
(viii) make any change to the provisions of this Indenture or the Notes that adversely affect the ranking of the Notes.
(b) It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.
(c) After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.2.
(d) The Notes issued on the Issue Date, and any Additional Notes part of the same series, will be treated as a single series for all purposes under this Indenture, including with respect to waivers and amendments. For the purposes of calculating the aggregate principal amount of Notes that have consented to or voted in favor of any amendment, waiver, consent, modifications or other similar action, the Issuer (acting reasonably and in good faith) shall be entitled to select a record date as of which the principal amount of any Notes shall be calculated in such consent or voting process.
