Information Regarding Borrower and Guarantors Prompt written notice (and in any event within thirty (30) days prior thereto) of any change (i) in the Borrower or any Guarantor’s corporate name or in any trade name used to identify such Person in the conduct of its business or in the ownership of its Properties, (ii) in the location of the Borrower or any Guarantor’s chief executive office or principal place of business, (iii) in the Borrower or any Guarantor’s identity or corporate structure or in the jurisdiction in which such Person is incorporated or formed, (iv) in the Borrower or any Guarantor’s jurisdiction of organization or such Person’s organizational identification number in such jurisdiction of organization, and (v) in the Borrower or any Guarantor’s federal taxpayer identification number.
Co-Borrowers (a) Each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower accepts joint and several liability hereunder in consideration of the financial accommodation provided or to be provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each other. (b) Each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for the Obligations. Each of the Lead Borrower’s and the Co-Borrower’s obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder, with respect to Term Loans made to the Lead Borrower hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such obligations shall be primary obligations of each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower. (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against either the Lead Borrower or the Co-Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of, the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, all suretyship defenses and consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of either the Lead Borrower or the Co-Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. (d) Each representation and warranty made on behalf of the Co-Borrower by the Lead Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by the Co-Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against the Co-Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by the Co-Borrower. (e) Any reference to the “Borrower” in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document means the Lead Borrower, individually, or the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower collectively, as the context may require; provided that (i) any reference in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document to the “Borrower and its Subsidiaries” (or phrases of like nature) shall be deemed to refer to the “Lead Borrower and its Subsidiaries” (as applicable and modified as necessary as the context requires), (ii) any reference in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document to the fiscal year or any fiscal quarter of the Borrower shall be deemed to refer to the fiscal year or the applicable fiscal quarter of the Lead Borrower and (iii) unless the context requires otherwise, any reference in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document to financial statements of the Borrower shall be deemed to refer to financial statements of the Lead Borrower. (f) For all purposes of this Agreement, the Co-Borrower hereby (i) authorizes the Lead Borrower to make such requests, give such notices or furnish such certificates to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders as may be required or permitted by this Agreement for the benefit of the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower and to give any consents on behalf of the Co-Borrower required by this Agreement and (ii) authorizes the Administrative Agent to treat such requests, notices, certificates or consents made, given or furnished by the Lead Borrower as having been made, given or furnished by the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower for purposes of this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent or specified in this Agreement, the Lead Borrower shall be the only Person entitled to make, give or furnish such requests, notices, certificates or requests directly to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for purposes of this Agreement. The Co-Borrower agrees to be bound by all such requests, notices, certificates and consents and other such actions by the Lead Borrower. In each case, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon all such requests, notices, certificates and consents made, given or furnished by the Lead Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document as being made or furnished on behalf of, and with the effect of irrevocably binding, the Lead Borrower and the Co-Borrower.
Additional Borrowers (a) The Parent may from time to time designate one or more wholly-owned Subsidiaries of Parent organized in the United States as an Additional Borrower by delivering to the Agent: (i) all documentation and other customary information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Patriot Act, that the Agent or any Lender has reasonably requested, including, if such Subsidiary qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to such Subsidiary, without any written objection submitted by any Lender or the Agent within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of such documentation and other information; (ii) solely to the extent such Subsidiary is not already a Loan Party, (A) all documents, joinders, supplements, updated schedules, instruments, certificates and agreements and all other actions and information, then required by or in respect of such Subsidiary by Section 5.11 or by the Guaranty and Security Agreement (without giving effect to any grace periods for delivery of such items, the updating of such information or the taking of such actions), (B) a customary opinion of counsel of such Subsidiary and (C) a customary secretary’s certificate attaching such documents as were delivered by the existing Borrowers on the Closing Date; (iii) promissory notes in respect of such Subsidiary in its capacity as Additional Borrower in favor of any Lender requesting such promissory notes, in form and substance consistent with the notes (if any) provided by the existing Borrowers as of the Closing Date; and (iv) a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent whereby such Subsidiary becomes party hereto as a Borrower. (b) The designation of any wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent organized in the United States as an Additional Borrower shall only be effective two (2) Business Days following the delivery of the documents set forth in, and satisfaction of the requirements of, Section 2.2(a).
BORROWERS The Available Securities may be loaned to any Borrower identified on the Schedule of Borrowers, as such Schedule may be modified from time to time by State Street and Client, including without limitation, the Capital Markets division of State Street; provided, however, if Available Securities are loaned to the Capital Markets division, in addition to being consistent with the terms hereof, said Loan shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Securities Loan Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1, as modified form time to time in accordance with the provisions hereof (hereinafter, the "State Street Securities Loan Agreement"). The form of the State Street Securities Loan Agreement may be modified by State Street from time to time, without the consent of the Client, in order to comply with the requirements of law or any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over State Street, the Client or the securities lending program or in any other manner that is not material and adverse to the interests of the Client. Client acknowledges that it is aware that State Street, acting as "Lender's Agent" hereunder and thereunder, is or may be deemed to be the same legal entity as State Street acting as "Borrower" under the State Street Securities Loan Agreement, notwithstanding the different designations used herein and therein or the dual roles assumed by State Street hereunder and thereunder. Client represents that the power granted herein to State Street, as agent, to lend U.S. Securities owned by Client (including, in legal effect, the power granted to State Street to make Loans to itself) and the other powers granted to State Street, as agent herein, are given expressly for the purpose of averting and waiving any prohibitions upon such lending or other exercise of such powers which might exist in the absence of such powers, and that transactions effected pursuant to and in compliance with this Agreement and the State Street Securities Loan Agreement will not constitute a breach of trust or other fiduciary duty by State Street. Client further acknowledges that it has granted State Street the power to effect securities lending transactions with the Capital Markets division of State Street and other powers assigned to State Street hereunder and under the Securities Loan Agreements and the State Street Securities Loan Agreement as a result of Client's desire to increase the opportunity for it to lend securities held in its account on fair and reasonable terms to qualified Borrowers without such loans being considered a breach of State Street's fiduciary duty. In connection therewith, each party hereby agrees that it shall furnish to the other party (i) the most recent available audited statement of its financial condition, and (ii) the most recent available unaudited statement of its financial condition, if more recent than the audited statement. As long as any Loan is outstanding under this Agreement, each party shall also promptly deliver to the other party all such financial information that is subsequently available, and any other financial information or statements that such other party may reasonably request. In the event any such Loan is made to the Capital Markets division, State Street hereby covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Clients that it has adopted and implemented procedural safeguards to help ensure that all actions taken by it hereunder will be effected by individuals other than, and not under the supervision of, individuals who are acting in a capacity as Borrower thereunder, and that all trades effected hereunder will take place at the same fully negotiated "arms length" prices offered to similarly situated third parties by State Street when it acts as lending agent, notwithstanding the inherent conflict of interest with respect to Loans to be effected by State Street to the Capital Markets division.
Designation of Lead Borrower as Borrowers’ Agent (a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Lead Borrower as such Borrower’s agent to obtain Credit Extensions, the proceeds of which shall be available to each Borrower for such uses as are permitted under this Agreement. As the disclosed principal for its agent, each Borrower shall be obligated to each Credit Party on account of Credit Extensions so made as if made directly by the applicable Credit Party to such Borrower, notwithstanding the manner by which such Credit Extensions are recorded on the books and records of the Lead Borrower and of any other Borrower. In addition, each Loan Party other than the Borrowers hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Lead Borrower as such Loan Party’s agent to represent such Loan Party in all respects under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. (b) Each Borrower recognizes that credit available to it hereunder is in excess of and on better terms than it otherwise could obtain on and for its own account and that one of the reasons therefor is its joining in the credit facility contemplated herein with all other Borrowers. Consequently, each Borrower hereby assumes and agrees to discharge all Obligations of each of the other Borrowers. (c) The Lead Borrower shall act as a conduit for each Borrower (including itself, as a “Borrower”) on whose behalf the Lead Borrower has requested a Credit Extension. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Credit Party shall have any obligation to see to the application of such proceeds therefrom.
