Release of Material Subsidiary Guarantors or Other Subsidiary Guarantors Clause Samples

The 'Release of Material Subsidiary Guarantors or Other Subsidiary Guarantors' clause defines the conditions under which a subsidiary that has guaranteed a parent company's obligations can be released from its guarantee. Typically, this release occurs if the subsidiary no longer meets the criteria for being a guarantor, such as through sale, merger, or a reduction in its significance to the overall business. The clause ensures that only subsidiaries that are relevant and necessary to the credit structure remain liable, thereby providing flexibility for corporate restructuring and reducing unnecessary obligations for entities that no longer pose material credit risk.

Notwithstanding Section 4.17(a) hereof, the Company shall not be obligated to cause such Restricted Subsidiary to Guarantee the Notes to the extent that such Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary would reasonably be expected to give rise to or result in (i) any liability for the officers, directors or shareholders of such Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) any significant cost, expense, liability or obligation (including with respect of any Taxes, but excluding any reasonable guarantee or similar fee payable to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) other than reasonable out of pocket expenses.
