Merger of the Guarantor Sample Clauses

The 'Merger of the Guarantor' clause defines the rights and obligations of the parties if the guarantor undergoes a merger, consolidation, or similar corporate restructuring. Typically, this clause stipulates that the guarantee remains in effect and binds any successor entity, ensuring that the obligations are not discharged or diminished by the merger. This provision is crucial for maintaining the enforceability of the guarantee, preventing the guarantor from escaping liability through corporate changes.
Merger of the Guarantor. The Guarantor covenants that it will not merge or consolidate with any other corporation or other entity or sell or convey all or substantially all of its assets to any person (other than such a sale or conveyance to a Subsidiary or any successor thereto (such a sale or conveyance being called an "Asset Drop-Down")), unless (i) either the Guarantor shall be the continuing corporation or the successor corporation or other entity or the person which acquires by sale or conveyance substantially all the assets of the Guarantor shall expressly assume the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants hereof to be performed or observed by the Guarantor, by instrument in form satisfactory to the Investment Guarantee Trustee, executed and delivered to the Investment Guarantee Trustee by such corporation or other entity, and (ii) the Guarantor or such successor corporation or other entity, as the case may be, shall not, immediately after such merger or consolidation, or such sale or conveyance, be in default in the performance of any such covenant or condition. In the event of any Asset Drop-Down after the date hereof, any subsequent sale or conveyance of assets by a Subsidiary to which assets were transferred in such Asset Drop-Down will be deemed to be a sale or conveyance of assets by the Company for purposes of this provision.
