Conditions to Action by the Indenture Trustee Clause Samples

The "Conditions to Action by the Indenture Trustee" clause defines the specific requirements that must be met before the Indenture Trustee is obligated or permitted to take certain actions under the agreement. Typically, this clause outlines prerequisites such as receiving proper instructions from noteholders, obtaining necessary documentation, or ensuring that indemnification is provided for potential liabilities. For example, the trustee may need written direction from a majority of bondholders before initiating legal proceedings or distributing funds. The core function of this clause is to protect the trustee from acting without sufficient authority or protection, thereby minimizing risk and ensuring that actions are taken only when appropriate conditions are satisfied.
Conditions to Action by the Indenture Trustee. If in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee any document required to be executed pursuant to the terms of Section 8.1 or 8.2 or the election referred to in Section 9.13 hereof adversely affects any immunity or indemnity in favor of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture or the Participation Agreement, or would materially increase its administrative duties or responsibilities hereunder or thereunder or may result in personal liability for it (unless it shall have been provided an indemnity satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee), the Indenture Trustee may in its discretion decline to execute such document or the election. With every such document and election, the Indenture Trustee shall be furnished with evidence that all necessary consents have been obtained and with an opinion of counsel that such document complies with the provisions of this Indenture, does not deprive the Indenture Trustee or the holders of the Lessor Notes of the benefits of the Lien hereby created on any property subject hereto or of the assignments contained herein (except as otherwise consented to in accordance with Section 8.1 hereof) and that all consents required by the terms hereof in connection with the execution of such document or the making of such election have been obtained. The Indenture Trustee shall be fully authorized and protected in relying on such opinion.
