Burden of Proof—Confirmation of the Plan contract clause examples

The Debtors, as proponents of the Plan, have met their burden of proving the applicable elements of sections 1129(a) and 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code by a preponderance of the evidence, which is the applicable evidentiary standard for Confirmation. In addition, and to the extent applicable, the Plan is confirmable under the clear and convincing evidentiary standard.

Burden of Proof. In connection with any determination by the Reviewing Party or otherwise as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified under any provision of this Agreement or to receive contribution pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law the burden of proof shall be on the Company to establish that Indemnitee is not so entitled.

BURDEN OF PROOF. In any judicial proceeding brought under Clause 11(a) above, the Company shall have the burden of proving that the Director is not entitled to payment of Indemnifiable Amounts hereunder.

No Presumptions; Burden of Proof. For purposes of this Deed, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the termination of any Claim by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court has determined that the right to be Indemnified is not permitted. In addition, neither the failure of any Reviewing Party to have made a determination as to whether Indemnitee has met any particular standard of conduct or had any particular belief, nor an actual determination by any Reviewing Party that Indemnitee has not met such standard of conduct or did not have such belief, prior to the commencement of legal proceedings by Indemnitee to secure a judicial determination that Indemnitee should be Indemnified, shall be a defence to Indemnitee’s claim or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met any particular standard of conduct or did not have any particular belief. In connection with any determination by any Reviewing Party or otherwise as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to be Indemnified, the burden of proof shall be on the Company, by clear and convincing evidence, to establish that Indemnitee is not so entitled.

Confirmation Order. A final, nonappealable Confirmation Order shall have been entered and is not subject to any stay, and, unless waived by [[Organization B:Organization]], the time to appeal the Confirmation Order or to seek review, rehearing, or certiorari with respect to the Confirmation Order must have expired, no appeal or petition for review, rehearing or certiorari with respect to the provisions of the Confirmation Order may be pending, and the Confirmation Order must otherwise be in full force and effect;

Borrower Confirmation. The Company and the Specified Designated Borrower (being at all relevant times members of the same wholly owned group) confirm that:

Confirmation Schedule. The Confirmation Schedule as set forth in the Scheduling Motion, including the shortened notice related thereto, is approved in all respects.

Rating Confirmation. Upon written request of any [[Organization B:Organization]](s), such [[Organization B:Organization]] shall (at such [[Organization B:Organization]]’s expense (including reasonable legal expenses of the Master Servicer, up to $5,000) and with the reasonable cooperation of the Master Servicer), obtain a rating, in form satisfactory to the requesting [[Organization B:Organization]], of the facility contemplated by this Agreement (theExternal Rating”) from S&P, Moody’s, Fitch or another nationally-recognized rating agency reasonably acceptable to the requesting [[Organization B:Organization]] within sixty (60) days from the date of such written request, at least equal to the implied rating of “A” established by the Administrative Agent as of the Renewal Date (the "Implied Rating"). Except as set forth in the next succeeding paragraph or if any change in Law or any change in regulatory guidelines by any Official Body requires an additional External Rating, once the External Rating has been obtained, no [[Organization B:Organization]] may request another External Rating hereunder. If the External Rating is less than the Implied Rating, then the Master Servicer may effect a Ratings Cure (as defined below). The Master Servicer may effect only one such Ratings Cure prior to obtaining an External Rating that is equal to or better than the Implied Rating. A “Ratings Cure” means the satisfaction by the Master Servicer of each of the following conditions: # promptly following receipt of the External Rating, the Master Servicer notifies the Administrative Agent of its intention to effect a Ratings Cure, # the Master Servicer takes, or causes the SPV to take, any actions permitted under this Agreement and the First Tier Agreement that Master Servicer reasonably believes would improve the rating of the facility contemplated by this Agreement and # within thirty (30) days following receipt of the External Rating, obtains a new external rating of the facility contemplated by this Agreement from the rating agency that provided the External Rating (or, with the Administrative Agent's consent, from another nationally-recognized rating agency) and such new rating is at least equal to the Implied Rating.

Nonseverability of Plan Provisions Upon Confirmation. Each provision of the Plan is: # valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms; # integral to the Plan and may not be deleted or modified without the Debtors’ consent and a Court order (and subject to such other consents and consultation rights set forth in the Plan) in accordance with the terms set forth in the Plan; and # nonseverable and mutually dependent.

Interpretation. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.
