Formation of Subsidiaries. Each Loan Party will, at the time that any Loan Party forms any direct or indirect Subsidiary, acquires any direct or indirect Subsidiary after the Sixth Restatement Effective Date, at any time when any direct or indirect Subsidiary of a Loan Party that previously was an Excluded Subsidiary ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary, or at any time when any Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated as a Restricted Subsidiary, within thirty days of such event (or such later date as permitted by Agent in its sole discretion) # unless such Subsidiary is an Excluded Subsidiary, cause such Subsidiary # if such Subsidiary is a Domestic Subsidiary and Administrative Borrower requests, subject to the consent of Agent, that such Domestic Subsidiary be joined as a Borrower hereunder, to provide to Agent a Joinder to this Agreement, and # to provide to Agent a joinder to the Guaranty and Security Agreement, in each case, together with (subject to such longer time period as may be expressly provided in any other Loan Document) such other Security Documents reasonably requested by the Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent (including being sufficient to grant Agent a first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) in and to the assets of such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary); # except to the extent exempted or excluded under and in accordance with the terms of the Guaranty and Security Agreement, provide, or cause the applicable Loan Party to provide, to Agent a pledge agreement (or an addendum to the Guaranty and Security Agreement) and appropriate certificates and powers or financing statements, pledging all of the direct or beneficial ownership interest in such new Subsidiary in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent; provided, that only 65% of the total outstanding voting Equity Interests of any first tier Subsidiary of a Loan Party that is a CFC or a Disregarded Domestic Person (and none of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary of such CFC or Disregarded Domestic Person) shall be required to be pledged if pledging a greater amount would result in adverse tax consequences or the costs to the Loan Parties of providing such pledge are unreasonably excessive (as determined by Agent in consultation with Borrowers) in relation to the benefits to Agent and the Lenders of the security afforded thereby (which pledge, if reasonably requested by Agent, shall be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction of such Subsidiary), and # provide to Agent all other documentation, including the Governing Documents of such Subsidiary, security agreements with respect to such Subsidiary’s intellectual property, and one or more opinions of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Agent, which, in its reasonable opinion, is appropriate with respect to the execution and delivery of the applicable documentation referred to above. Agent shall not accept delivery of any joinder to any Loan Document with respect to any Subsidiary of any Loan Party that is not a Loan Party, if such Subsidiary that qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation unless such Subsidiary has delivered a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to such Subsidiary and Agent and each Lender has completed its respective Patriot Act searches, OFAC/PEP searches and customary individual background checks for such Subsidiary, the results of which shall be satisfactory to Agent and each Lender, respectively.

If # any Person (other than a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary) becomes a Material Subsidiary of the Principal Borrower, # at any time any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary qualifying as such as a result of clauses (a), (b) or (c) of the definition thereof could become a Loan Party without violating the terms of any material contract, agreement or document to which it is a party, or # a Subsidiary of the Principal Borrower guarantees, or otherwise becomes obligated in respect of, any Unsecured Debt of the Consolidated Parties, the Principal Borrower shall, contemporaneously, in the case of [clause (z)], and within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Quarterly Subsidiary Joinder Statement pursuant to [Section 6.02(b)(i)] (or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent) in the case of [clauses (x) and (y)], (i) if such Person is a Domestic Subsidiary of the Principal Borrower, cause such Person to become a Guarantor by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a counterpart of the Guaranty or such other document as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate for such purpose, and # cause such Person to deliver to the Administrative Agent documents of the types referred to in [clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 4.01(a)], all in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided that to the extent such Person holds (whether upon delivery of the items required above or at any time after the delivery of the items required above) assets with a fair market value in excess of $5,000,000 or to the extent requested by Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent favorable opinions of counsel to such Person (which shall cover, among other things, the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the documentation referred to in this clause (a)). If a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary executes and delivers the Guaranty, it shall no longer be deemed a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary under this Agreement.
