Sherritt International Corporation (the “Corporation”) is the issuer of the 8.5% Second Lien Notes due 2027 (the “New Second Lien Notes”) to be qualified herein, and is referred to herein as the “Issuer” or the “Applicant.” Each of the other applicants named above are guarantors of the New Second Lien Notes and are herein referred to as the “Guarantors” or the “Co-Applicants” (and together with the Applicant, the “Applicants”).

2. Securities Act Exemption Applicable

Existing Notes Exchange – Reliance on Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act

In connection with certain transactions (collectively, the “Transaction”) to be implemented by way of an arrangement (the “Arrangement”) pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the “Plan”) under Section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act, the Issuer intends to, on the implementation date of the Plan (the “Effective Date”), exchange all of the outstanding 8.00% senior unsecured debentures of the Issuer due November 15, 2021, 7.50% senior unsecured debentures of the Issuer due September 24, 2023, and 7.875% senior unsecured notes of the Issuer due October 11, 2025 (collectively, the “Existing Notes”), in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $588.1 million, together with all accrued and unpaid interested in respect of the Existing Notes (at the contractual non-default rate) up to but excluding the Effective Date (the “Accrued Interest”) for (a) New Second Lien Notes in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $294.05 million plus the amount of the Accrued Interest to be issued by the Issuer and guaranteed by the Guarantors, and certain early consent cash consideration (collectively, the “Exchange Transaction”) as follows:

(i) each Early Consenting Noteholder shall receive, in exchange for its Existing Notes: (a) New Second Lien Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to (1) 50% of the principal amount of Existing Notes held by such Early Consenting Noteholder on the Effective Date plus (2) the Accrued Interest owing in respect of such Early Consenting Noteholder’s Existing Notes, and (b) cash in an amount equal to 3% of the principal amount of Consent Notes held by such Early Consenting Noteholder as at the Effective Date; and
(ii) each Noteholder that is not an Early Consenting Noteholder shall receive, in exchange for its Existing Notes, New Second Lien Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to (1) 50% of the principal amount of Existing Notes held by such Noteholder on the Effective Date plus (2) the Accrued Interest in respect of such Noteholder’s Existing Notes,

1
 

all as further described in the Issuer’s Management Information Circular (the “Information Circular”), incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit T3E. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Information Circular. Unless otherwise stated, all monetary amounts contained herein are expressed in Canadian dollars.

 

The New Second Lien Notes will be issued under an indenture (the “New Notes Indenture”) to be qualified by this application for qualification (this “Application”). A form of the New Notes Indenture has been filed as Exhibit T3C to this Application.

The final principal amount of New Second Lien Notes to be issued pursuant to the Transaction will depend on the aggregate amount of interest accrued in respect of the Existing Notes up to the Effective Date. Based on an Effective Date of April 30, 2020, the aggregate principal amount of New Second Lien Notes to be issued would be approximately $319 million.

The Exchange Transaction in connection with the New Second Lien Notes will be conducted in reliance on Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act. Registration of the distribution of the New Second Lien Notes under the Securities Act is not required by reason of the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act.

Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act exempts from the general requirement of registration under the Securities Act securities issued in exchange for one or more bona fide outstanding securities, claims or property interests, or partly in such exchange and partly for cash, where the terms and conditions of the issuance and exchange are approved by a court or other governmental authority that is expressly authorized by law to grant such approval, after a hearing upon the fairness of such terms and conditions of such issuance and exchange at which all persons to whom the securities will be issued in such exchange have the right to appear.

 

The three main elements of the Section 3(a)(10) exemption are (a) an exchange of outstanding securities, claims or property interests, (b) a fairness hearing and (c) court approval of the issuances of securities in exchange for securities, claims or property interests. As described below and in the Information Circular incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit T3E, each of these elements will be satisfied in connection with the issuance of the New Second Lien Notes.

(a) Exchange

Pursuant to the Arrangement, the New Second Lien Notes will be issued in exchange for the Existing Notes as more fully described in the Information Circular, incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit T3E.

(b) Fairness Hearing

On February 26, 2020 the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) (the “Court”) granted the Interim Order (the “Interim Order”), which, among other things, authorized: (a) the Issuer to send the Information Circular to, among others, the holders of the Existing Notes and (b) the calling and holding of the Debtholders’ Meeting to consider and vote upon the Arrangement to implement the Transaction. The Debtholders’ Meeting is scheduled to take place on April 9, 2020. A hearing to seek the Court’s approval of the Arrangement, including that the terms and conditions of the Arrangement are fair to those to whom securities will be issued, is scheduled to be held by the Court, which is expressly authorized by law to hold the hearing, on April 16, 2020 at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time), or such other time and/or date as may be approved by the Court. The hearing will be open to all persons holding the Existing Notes. Such persons have the right to appear at the hearing and to present evidence or testimony with respect to the fairness of the Arrangement. Measures will be taken pursuant to the Interim Order to provide relevant information and adequate and timely notice of the right to appear to the holders of the Existing Notes, including circulation of the Information Circular, and there will be no improper impediments to appearance by those persons at the hearing.

(c) Court Approval

The Issuer anticipates that on April 16, 2020 at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time), or such other time and/or date as may be approved by the Court, it will seek Court approval of the Arrangement and the issuance of a Final Order by the Court, among other things, approving the Arrangement as fair and reasonable. The Court has been advised in connection with seeking the Interim Order and will be advised in connection with seeking the Final Order that its ruling will be the basis for claiming an exemption from registration under the Securities Act by reason of the exemption afforded by Section 3(a)(10) thereof.

INDENTURE SECURITIES

8. Analysis of Indenture Provisions.

The New Second Lien Notes will be issued under the New Notes Indenture. The following is a general analysis of certain provisions of the New Notes Indenture and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of the New Notes Indenture filed as Exhibit T3C hereto. The Issuer has not entered into the New Notes Indenture as of the date of this filing, and the terms of the New Notes Indenture are subject to change prior to its execution. Capitalized terms used herein in this Section 8 that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the New Notes Indenture.

(a) Events of Default; Withholding of Notice

An “Event of Default” means any one of the following events in relation to the New Second Lien Notes:

(1) default in any payment of interest on any New Second Lien Note when due, continued for thirty (30) days;
(2) default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, on any New Second Lien Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, upon declaration or otherwise;
(3) failure by the Issuer or any Guarantor to comply with its obligations under Article 5, Section 5.01 of the New Notes Indenture;
(4) failure by the Issuer or any Guarantor to comply for sixty (60) days after written notice from the Trustee (acting at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes) to comply with any agreement or covenant in the New Notes Indenture, the New Second Lien Notes or the Collateral Documents (other than a failure that is the subject of clauses (1), (2) or (3) of Article 6, Section 6.01(a)) of the New Notes Indenture;
(5) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there is issued or by which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is Guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), other than Non-Recourse Debt and other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, which default:
(A) is caused by a failure to pay the principal of such Indebtedness at its Stated Maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace period provided in such Indebtedness) (“payment default”); or
(B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity;

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated and remains unpaid, aggregates $25.0 million or more (or its foreign currency equivalent);

(6) failure by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $20.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent) (net of any amounts for which an insurance company is liable), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of sixty (60) days or more after such judgment becomes final and non-appealable;
(7) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:
21
 
(A) commences proceedings to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent;
(B) consents to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking an arrangement of debt, reorganization, dissolution, winding up or relief under applicable Bankruptcy Law;
(C) consents to the appointment of a custodian, receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, liquidator, assignee, trustees, sequestrator or other similar official of it or for all or substantially all of its property;
(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or
(E) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due;
(8) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:
(A) is for relief against the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in a proceeding in which the Issuer or any such Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, is to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent;
(B) appoints a custodian, receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, liquidator, assignee, trustees, sequestrator or other similar official of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, or for all or substantially all of the property of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or
(C) orders the liquidation, dissolution, readjustment of debt, reorganization or winding up of the Issuer, or any Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for sixty (60) consecutive days;

(9) any Note Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Guarantors that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms of the New Notes Indenture) or is declared null and void in a final and non-appealable judicial proceeding or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Guarantors that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, denies or disaffirms its obligations under the New Notes Indenture or its Note Guarantee; or
(10) with respect to any Collateral having a fair market value in excess of $5 million, individually or in the aggregate, (i) the failure of the security interest with respect to such Collateral under the Collateral Documents, at any time, to be in full force and effect for any reason other than in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents and the terms of the New Notes Indenture (it being understood that in no event shall any security or filings be required if such security or filings are not being granted or made in favor of the Senior Agent), or the Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, and other than the satisfaction in full of all obligations under the New Notes Indenture and discharge of the New Notes Indenture if such failure continues for 60 days or more or (ii) the assertion by the Issuer or any Guarantor, in any pleading in any court of competent jurisdiction, that any such security interest is invalid or unenforceable, except in each case for the failure or loss of perfection resulting from the failure of the Collateral Agent to make filings, renewals and continuations (or other equivalent filings) which are required to be made.

In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the New Second Lien Notes because an Event of Default described in clause (5) above has occurred and is continuing, and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in Article 6 of the New Notes Indenture, the declaration of acceleration of the New Second Lien Notes shall be automatically annulled if (1) the default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause 5 above shall be remedied or cured by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within twenty (20) days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and (2) if (A) the annulment of the acceleration of the New Second Lien Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (B) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the New Second Lien Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the New Second Lien Notes, have been cured or waived.

22
 

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) above with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee (acting at the direction of Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding New Second Lien Notes) by written notice to the Issuer, specifying the Event of Default, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding New Second Lien Notes may by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the affected New Second Lien Notes to be due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) above with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the New Second Lien Notes then outstanding shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall send to each Holder a notice of such Default or Event of Default within ninety (90) days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default specified in clauses (1) or (2) above, the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if the Trustee determines in good faith that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders.

Except for an Event of Default specified in clauses (1) or (2) above, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received from the Issuer or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the New Second Lien Notes then outstanding written notice thereof at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references such New Second Lien Notes and the New Notes Indenture. In the absence of any such notice, and except for a default under clauses (1) or (2) above, the Trustee may conclusively assume that no Default or Event of Default exists.

(b) Authentication and Delivery of the Notes; Use of Proceeds

The New Second Lien Notes to be issued under the New Notes Indenture may be executed by manual or electronic signature by at least one of the following officers of the Issuer: the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Financial Officer, any Senior Vice President, the Treasurer or the Corporate Secretary or Assistant Corporate Secretary on behalf of the Issuer. The New Second Lien Notes shall not be entitled to any benefit under the New Notes Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it is authenticated by the manual or electronic signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under the New Notes Indenture. The Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the New Second Lien Notes upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer signed by an Officer of the Issuer.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the New Second Lien Notes. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such authenticating agent may authenticate the New Second Lien Notes whenever the Trustee may do so.

There will be no proceeds to the Issuer from the issuance of the New Second Lien Notes.

(c) Release of Note Guarantees of the New Notes Indenture; Release and Substitution of Property Subject to Lien of the New Notes Indenture

The Collateral Documents and the New Notes Indenture provide that a Note Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon:

(1)           (A) any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, exchange or other disposition (by merger, amalgamation, arrangement, consolidation, winding up or otherwise) of (i) all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor or (ii) the Capital Stock of such Guarantor after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, which sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, exchange or other disposition in each case does not violate the provisions described in Section 4.10 and Article 5 of the New Notes Indenture (it being understood that only such portion of the Net Available Cash as is required to be applied on or before the date of such release in accordance with the terms of the New Notes Indenture needs to be applied in accordance therewith at such time);

(B) the proper designation of any Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary; or

23
 

(C) the Issuer’s exercise of its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option in accordance with Article 8 of the New Notes Indenture or the Issuer’s obligations under the New Notes Indenture in accordance with the terms of Article 12 of the New Notes Indenture.

The Issuer shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in the New Notes Indenture relating to such transaction and/or release have been satisfied. At the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver any documents reasonably required in order to evidence such release, discharge and termination in respect of the applicable Note Guarantee.

Notwithstanding anything in the New Notes Indenture to the contrary, a Note Guarantee by a Guarantor may, at the option of the Issuer, be unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) such Guarantor becoming an Immaterial Subsidiary or (ii) such Guarantor being released from its obligations under the Credit Facility, except where such release results from the repayment and termination of the Credit Facility.

The Liens on the Collateral under the Collateral Documents shall automatically and without the need for any further action by any Person be released with respect to the New Second Lien Notes:

(1) in whole or in part, as applicable, as to all or any portion of property subject to such Liens which has been taken by eminent domain, condemnation or other similar circumstances;
(2) in whole, upon:
(A) satisfaction and discharge of the New Notes Indenture as set forth under Section 12.01 thereof; or
(B) a legal defeasance or covenant defeasance of the New Notes Indenture as described under Article 8 thereof;
(3) in part, as to any property constituting Collateral that (a) is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Issuer or any Guarantor (other than to the Issuer or another Guarantor) in a transaction not prohibited by the New Notes Indenture or the Collateral Documents at the time of such sale, transfer or disposition or (b) is owned or at any time acquired by a Guarantor that has been released from its Guarantee in accordance with the New Notes Indenture, concurrently with the release of such Guarantee (including in connection with the designation of a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary);
(4) in whole or in part, as applicable, with the consent of the Majority Holders (including without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, New Second Lien Notes);
(5) upon the release by the Senior Agent of the Liens granted in its favor by the Issuer or any Guarantor, other than in connection with a repayment and termination of the Credit Facility;
(6) upon the sale or disposition of any Collateral pursuant to the exercise of any rights and remedies by the Senior Agent, on behalf of the Senior Lenders, with respect to any Collateral securing the Credit Facility or the commencement or prosecution of enforcement by the holders of first lien Indebtedness of any of the rights and remedies under any security document securing first lien Indebtedness or applicable law, including, without limitation, the exercise of any rights of set-off or recoupment; and
(7) upon the sale or disposition of Collateral pursuant to the exercise of any rights and remedies by the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral securing the New Second Lien Notes in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement,

provided, that, in the case of any release in whole pursuant to the foregoing, all amounts owing to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent under the New Notes Indenture, the New Second Lien Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Collateral Documents shall have been paid.

24
 

The Issuer and each Guarantor shall furnish to the Trustee, prior to each proposed release of Collateral pursuant to the Collateral Documents and the New Notes Indenture, (1) an Officers’ Certificate requesting such release; (2) an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in the New Notes Indenture and the Collateral Documents to such release have been complied with; (3) a form of such release (which release shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and shall provide that the requested release is without recourse or warranty to the Trustee); and (4) a certificate or opinion of an engineer, appraiser or other expert as to the fair value of the Collateral to be released, in accordance with Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act; provided that any such certificate or opinion may be made by an officer or legal counsel, as applicable, of the Issuer except in cases where Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent Person, which Person shall be an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert selected by the Issuer; and provided, further, that any such certificate or opinion shall not be required under this subclause (4) if the Issuer reasonably determines that under the terms of Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the Securities and Exchange Commission and its staff, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, all or any portion of Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act is inapplicable to any release or series of releases of Collateral.

Upon compliance by the Issuer or the Guarantors, as the case may be, with the conditions precedent set forth above, and upon delivery by the Issuer or such Guarantor to the Collateral Agent of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such conditions precedent have been complied with, the Collateral Agent shall promptly cause to be released and reconveyed to the Issuer, or the Guarantors, as the case may be, the released Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments prepared by the Issuer as the Issuer and the Guarantors may reasonably request to evidence such release without the consent of the Holders of the New Second Lien Notes.

(d) Satisfaction and Discharge

The New Notes Indenture shall be discharged and will cease to be of further effect, except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of New Second Lien Notes, when either:

(1) all New Second Lien Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed New Second Lien Notes that have been replaced or paid, and such New Second Lien Notes for which payment has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Trustee and is thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from the trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or
(2)

(A) all New Second Lien Notes not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the giving of a notice of redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable within one (1) year or may be called for redemption within one (1) year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in Canadian dollars or Canadian dollar denominated Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an Independent Financial Advisor, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on such New Second Lien Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption;
(B) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit or will occur as a result of the deposit (other than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowing) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than the New Notes Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;
(C) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under the New Notes Indenture; and
25
 
(D) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.

 

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) to the Trustee, in each case stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of the New Notes Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (A) of clause (2) of Section 12.01(a) of the New Notes Indenture, the provisions of Section 12.02 and Section 8.06 of the New Notes Indenture shall survive.

(e) Evidence required to be Furnished by the Issuer to the Trustee in Compliance with the Conditions and Covenants Provided for in the New Notes Indenture

So long as the New Second Lien Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer will furnish the following:

(1) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within ninety (90) days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officer’s Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officer with a view to determining whether the Issuer and each Guarantor have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under the New Notes Indenture, and further stating, as to such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge, based on such review, the Issuer and each Guarantor have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under the New Notes Indenture and if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred during the preceding fiscal year, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer and each Guarantor are taking or propose to take with respect thereto.
(2) When any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the New Notes Indenture, the Issuer shall promptly (which shall be no more than thirty (30) Business Days following the date on which the Issuer becomes aware of such Default) send to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying such event, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.
(3) The Trustee shall transmit all such reports required pursuant to Section 313(a) and (b) of the Trust Indenture Act to all Persons required to receive such reports pursuant to Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act Section.

Upon any request or application by the Issuer or any Guarantor to the Trustee or Collateral Agent to take any action under the New Notes Indenture or the Collateral Documents, the Issuer or such Guarantor, shall furnish to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 13.04 of the New Notes Indenture) stating that, in the opinion of the signer(s) or in the opinion of such counsel, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in the New Notes Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with.

Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in the New Notes Indenture (other than a certificate provided pursuant to Section 4.04 of the New Notes Indenture) shall include:

(1) a statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition and the related definitions;
(2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;
(3) a statement that, in the opinion of such Person, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with (and, in the case of an Opinion of Counsel, may be limited to reliance on an Officer’s Certificate, certificates of public officials or reports or opinions of experts as to matters of fact); and
26
 
(4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such covenant or condition has been complied with.
