Grant and Pledge Clause Samples

The Grant and Pledge clause establishes that one party formally gives or commits certain rights, assets, or interests to another party, often as security for an obligation. In practice, this clause typically details what is being granted or pledged—such as intellectual property, shares, or other collateral—and outlines the conditions under which the recipient may exercise their rights over the pledged assets. Its core function is to provide assurance and legal backing for the recipient, ensuring that they have a claim to the specified assets if the granting party fails to fulfill their obligations, thereby reducing risk and increasing security in the transaction.

Each such request for Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be by facsimile, confirmed immediately in writing, in the form of a Letter of Credit Application. Each Letter of Credit (i) will be for the account of such Borrower, (ii) will be a non-transferable standby letter of credit to support certain payment or performance obligations of such Borrower, (iii) will be for purposes reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Bank and (iv) will contain such terms and provisions as may be customarily required by the relevant Issuing Bank. (b) Prior to the Issuance of any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Bank will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of the Letter of Credit Application or Letter of Credit Amendment Application from any Borrower and, if not, such Issuing Bank will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the relevant Issuing Bank (i) has received notice prior to its Issuance of a requested Letter of Credit from the Agent (A) directing such Issuing Bank not to Issue such Letter of Credit because such Issuance is not then permitted under this Section 6.2, or (B) that one or more conditions specified in Article VIII are not then satisfied or waived or (ii) is otherwise not obligated to issue such Letter of Credit under Section 6.1, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, Issue a Letter of Credit for the account of such Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. (c) From time to time while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and prior to the Letter of Credit Termination Date, the relevant Issuing Bank will, upon the written request of any Borrower received by such Issuing Bank (with a copy sent by the Borrower to the Agent) at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter time as such Issuing Bank may agree in particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of amendment or extension, amend any Letter of Credit Issued by it or extend the expiry date. Each such request for amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be made by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing, made in such form as the relevant Issuing Bank shall require. No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to amend or extend the expiry date any Letter of Credit if: (i) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to Issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms of this Agreement; or (ii) the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit. (d) Upon receipt of notice from the relevant Issuing Bank, the Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of the Issuance of a Letter of Credit and any amendment or extension thereto. (e) If any outstanding Letter of Credit shall provide that it shall be automatically renewed unless the beneficiary thereof receives notice from the relevant Issuing Bank that such Letter of Credit shall not be renewed, the relevant Issuing Bank shall be permitted to allow such Letter of Credit to renew, and the Borrowers and the Lenders hereby authorize such renewal. The relevant Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to allow such Letter of Credit to renew if such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to Issue or amend such Letter of Credit under the terms of this Agreement. (f) Any Issuing Bank may, at its election (or as required by the Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders), deliver any notices of termination or other communications to any Letter of Credit beneficiary or transferee, and take any other action as necessary or appropriate, at any time and from time to time, in order to cause the expiration date of any Letter of Credit to be a date not later than the Maturity Date. (g) This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with any Letter of Credit Related Document. (h) Each Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Agent, concurrently or promptly following its delivery of a Letter of Credit, or amendment or extension to a Letter of Credit, to an advising bank or a beneficiary, a true and complete copy of each such Letter of Credit, amendment, or extension to a Letter of Credit.

Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the relevant L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be; or, in each case, such later date and time as the relevant L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion.

If requested by the L/C Issuer, the Parent Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the L/C Issuer’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request. (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the relevant L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Parent Borrower and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the relevant L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrowers or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, acquire from the relevant L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the relevant L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
