Section 3(a)(10) 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
2

 
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, each of these elements will be satisfied in connection with the issuance of the New 2026 Exchange Notes.
(a) Exchange
Pursuant to the Arrangement, the New 2026 Exchange Notes will be issued in exchange for the Existing Notes as more fully described in the Information Circular, filed hereto as Exhibit T3E-3.
(b) Fairness Hearing
On November 15, 2023, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) (the “Court”) granted an Interim Order (the “Interim Order”), which, among other things, authorized: (a) the Parent Guarantor to send the Information Circular to, among others, the holders of the Existing Notes and (b) the calling and holding of the Special Meeting of Senior Noteholders in order for the Senior Noteholders to consider and vote upon the Arrangement to implement the Transactions. The Interim Order is attached hereto as Exhibit T3D-2. The Special Meeting of Senior Noteholders is scheduled to take place on December 15, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time). 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 December 19, 2023 at 10:00 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 December 19, 2023 at 10:00 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 (the “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.

The New 2026 Exchanges Notes will be subject to the A&R Indenture. The following is a general description of certain provisions expected to be included in the A&R Indenture, and the description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of A&R Indenture filed hereto as Exhibit T3C. The Parent Guarantor and Issuer have not entered into the A&R Indenture as of the date of this filing, and the terms of the A&R Indenture are subject to change before it is executed. Capitalized terms used below and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the A&R Indenture.
Events of Default
Unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture relating to a particular series of Notes, an “Event of Default” means any one of the following events:
(a)
default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes;
(b)
default in payment when due of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes (whether at maturity, upon redemption or upon a required repurchase);
(c)
failure by the Issuer to comply with its obligations under Section 10.1 of the A&R Indenture;
10

 
(d)
failure by the Issuer for 30 days to comply with the provisions of Section 6.14 of the A&R Indenture or Section 6.15 of the A&R Indenture to the extent not described in Section 7.1(b) of the A&R Indenture;
(e)
failure by AYR Wellness or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days (or 90 days in the case of a Reporting Failure) after written notice by the Trustee or Holders representing 51% or more of the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding to comply with any of the other agreements in the A&R Indenture;
(f)
default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by AYR Wellness or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is Guaranteed by AYR Wellness or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, if that default:
(A) (i) is caused by a failure to make any payment on such Indebtedness when due and after giving to the expiration of the grace period, if any, provided in such Indebtedness (a “Payment Default”); or (ii) 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, aggregates $5.0 million or more, or
(B) is caused by a breach or default of any other covenant other than a Payment Default (“Non-Payment Default”), after giving effect to the expiration of the grace period, if any, provided that the principal amount of any such Indebtedness individually, or when taken together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Non-Payment Default, aggregates to $10.0 million or more;
provided that, in each case (a) if any such Payment Default or Non-Payment Default is cured or waived or any such acceleration is rescinded, as the case may be, such Event of Default under the A&R Indenture and any consequential acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgement or decree and (b) any Non-Payment Default arising from any valid assertion made by a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Issuer that the granting of Liens to the Trustee in collateral securing the those certain Vendor Takeback Notes specified on Schedule B-2 of the A&R Indenture (“Specified Seller Notes”) breaches a prohibition (if any) on granting such Liens contained in the definitive documentation governing such Specified Seller Notes shall not constitute an Event of Default;
(g)
failure by AYR Wellness or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final non-appealable judgments (to the extent such judgments are not paid or covered by in-force insurance provided by a reputable carrier that has the ability to perform and has acknowledged coverage in writing) aggregating in excess of $25.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;
(h)
except as permitted by the A&R Indenture, any Guarantee is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any such Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Guarantee;
(i)
AYR Wellness or any Restricted Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:
(i)
commences a voluntary case or proceeding;
(ii)
applies for or consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding;
(iii)
applies for or consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its assets; or
(iv)
makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;
(j)
a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:
11

 
(i)
is for relief against AYR Wellness or any Restricted Subsidiary debtor in an involuntary case or proceeding;
(ii)
appoints a custodian of AYR Wellness or any Restricted Subsidiary or a custodian for all or substantially all of the assets of AYR Wellness or any Restricted Subsidiary; or
(iii)
orders the liquidation of AYR Wellness or any Restricted Subsidiary;
and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days and, in the case of the insolvency of a Restricted Subsidiary, such Restricted Subsidiary remains a Restricted Subsidiary on such 60th day;
(k)
the Security Documents shall for any reason (other than pursuant to the terms thereof) cease to create a valid and perfected Lien on any material portion of the Collateral purported to be covered thereby and the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor does not take all steps required to provide the Collateral Trustee with a valid and perfected Lien against such Collateral within five (5) days of request therefor by the Collateral Trustee or the Trustee; and
(l)
either
(i)
a default (after the expiry of any grace period or cure period provided by applicable law or regulations) under the terms of one or more Material Permits that, individually or in the aggregate, has a Material Adverse Effect, or
(ii)
any agreement by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary to surrender or terminate one or more Material Permits prior to the expiry date set out in such applicable Material Permit(s) that, individually or in the aggregate, has a Material Adverse Effect,
unless such Material Permit(s) are replaced within 60 days by substantially similar Material Permit(s) on terms and conditions no more onerous or restrictive than the Material Permit(s) forfeited or terminated under subsections (i) or (ii) or such Material Permit(s) are to be renewed or replaced by the applicable regulatory authority in accordance with applicable law.
For greater certainty, for the purposes of Section 7.1 of the A&R Indenture, an Event of Default shall occur with respect to a series of Notes if such Event of Default relates to a Default in the payment of principal, premium (if any), or interest on such series of Notes, in which case references to “Notes” in Section 7.1 of the A&R Indenture shall refer to Notes of that particular series.
For the purposes of Article 7 of the A&R Indenture, where the Event of Default refers to an Event of Default with respect to a particular series of Notes as described in Section 7.1 of the A&R Indenture, then Article 7 of the A&R Indenture shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Notes of such series and references in Article 7 of the A&R Indenture to the “Notes” shall be deemed to be references to Notes of such particular series, as applicable.
Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission, Annulment and Waiver
(a)
If an Event of Default (other than as specified in Section 7.1(i) of the A&R Indenture or 7.1(j) of the A&R Indenture) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 51% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare by notice in writing to the Issuer and (if given by the Holders) to the Trustee, the principal of (and premium, if any) and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of acceleration on, all of the outstanding Notes immediately due and payable and, upon any such declaration, all such amounts will become due and payable immediately.
If an Event of Default specified in Section 7.1(i) of the A&R Indenture or 7.1(j) of the A&R Indenture occurs and is continuing, then the principal of (and premium, if any) and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the outstanding Notes will thereupon become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. However, the effect of such provision may be limited by applicable laws.
(b)
The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 10 days after the occurrence thereof, notice of any
12

 
Payment Default or acceleration referred to in Section 7.1(f)(ii) of the A&R Indenture. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, if an Event of Default specified in Section 7.1(b) of the A&R Indenture occurs in relation to a failure by the Issuer to comply with the provisions of Section 6.14 of the A&R Indenture, “premium” shall include, without duplication to any other amounts included in “premium” for these purposes, the excess of:
(i)
the Change of Control Payment that was required to be offered in accordance with Section 6.14 of the A&R Indenture, in the event such offer was not made, or, in the event such offer was made, the Change of Control Payment that was required to be paid in accordance with Section 6.14 of the A&R Indenture; over
(ii)
the principal amount of the Notes that were required to be subject to such offer or payment, as applicable.
(c)
At any time after a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee:
(i)
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Issuer, the Holders and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:
(A) all existing Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and
(B) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction,
provided that if the Event of Default has occurred by reason of the nonobservance or non-performance by the Issuer of any covenant applicable only to one or more series of Notes, then the Holders of a majority of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes of that series shall be entitled to exercise the foregoing power of rescission and the Trustee shall so act and it shall not be necessary to obtain a waiver from the Holders of any other series of Notes; and (ii) the Trustee, so long as it has not become bound to declare the principal and interest on the Notes (or any of them) to be due and payable, or to obtain or enforce payment of the same, shall have the power to waive any Event of Default if, in the Trustee’s opinion, the same shall have been cured or adequate satisfaction made therefor, and in such event to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences,
provided that no such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
(d)
Notwithstanding Section 7.2(a) of the A&R Indenture, in the event of a declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes because an Event of Default specified in Section 7.1(f) of the A&R Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Issuer and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 30 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the Notes, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 30 day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.
(e)
The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Trustee, may on behalf of the Holders of all Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the A&R Indenture, except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or principal (or premium, if any) of, Notes; provided that if the Default or Event of Default has occurred by reason of the non-observance or non-performance by the Issuer of any covenant applicable only to one or more series of Notes, then the Holders of a majority of the
13

 
principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series shall be entitled to waive such Default or Event of Default and it shall not be necessary to obtain a waiver from the Holders of any other series of Notes.
Notice of Event of Default
If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Trustee shall, within 30 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence of such Event of Default, give notice of such Event of Default to the Holders in the manner provided in Section 14.2 of the A&R Indenture, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Trustee shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least 51% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, the Trustee shall not be required to give such notice if and the Trustee in good faith shall have determined that the withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Holders and shall have so advised the Issuer in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice relating to a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest shall not in any circumstances be withheld.
Statement by Officers
(a)
The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each of its fiscal years, a brief certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer as to his or her knowledge of compliance by the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries with all conditions and covenants in the A&R Indenture. For purposes of Section 7.20(a) of the A&R Indenture, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under the A&R Indenture.
(b)
Upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified mail or by facsimile transmission an Officers’ Certificate, specifying such event, notice or other action giving rise to such Default or Event of Default and the action that the Issuer or Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.
Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes
(a)
All Notes shall be signed (either manually or by electronic or facsimile signature) by any two authorized directors or officers of the Issuer, holding office at the time of signing. An electronic or facsimile signature upon a Note shall for all purposes of the A&R Indenture be deemed to be the signature of the individual whose signature it purports to be. Notwithstanding that any individual whose signature, either manual or in facsimile or other electronic means, appears on a Note as a director or officer may no longer hold such office at the date of the Note or at the date of the authentication and delivery thereof, such Note shall be valid and binding upon the Issuer and the Holder thereof shall be entitled to the benefits of the A&R Indenture.
(b)
No Notes will be entitled to any right or benefit under the A&R Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless such Notes have been authenticated by manual signature by or on behalf of the Trustee substantially in the form provided for herein or in the relevant Supplemental Indenture. Such authentication upon any Notes will be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Notes have been duly authenticated, issued and delivered and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits hereof.
(c)
Subject to the terms of the A&R Indenture, the Trustee shall from time to time authenticate one or more Notes (including Global Notes) for original issue on the issue date for any series of Notes upon and in accordance with an Issuer Order (an “Authentication Order”), without the Trustee receiving any consideration therefor. Each such Authentication Order shall specify the principal amount of such Notes to be authenticated and the date on which such Notes are to be authenticated. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount specified in the Authentication Orders except as provided in Section 2.10 of the A&R Indenture. Except as provided in Section 6.10 of the A&R Indenture, there is no limit on the amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder.
(d)
The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee authenticating Notes will not be construed as a
14

 
representation or warranty of the Trustee as to the validity of the A&R Indenture or of any Notes or their issuance (except the due authentication thereof by the Trustee) or as to the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under of the A&R Indenture or any Notes and the Trustee will be in no respect liable or answerable for the use made of the proceeds of such Notes. The certificate by or on behalf of the Trustee on Notes issued under the A&R Indenture will constitute a representation and warranty by the Trustee that such Notes have been duly authenticated by and on behalf of the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of the A&R Indenture.
Release of Guarantees
(a)
The Guarantee of a Guarantor will be automatically released:
(i)
in connection with any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise), in one or more related transactions, to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of AYR Wellness, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 6.15 of the A&R Indenture;
(ii)
in connection with any sale or other disposition of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of AYR Wellness after which such Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale of such Capital Stock of that Guarantor complies with Section 6.15 of the A&R Indenture;
(iii)
[reserved];
(iv)
upon payment in full in cash of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest and premium (if any) on, the Notes; or
(v)
upon Legal Defeasance, Covenant Defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the A&R Indenture as provided above under Article 8 of the A&R Indenture.
(b)
The Trustee shall promptly execute and deliver a release together with all instruments and other documents reasonably requested by the Issuer or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary to evidence the release and termination of any Guarantee upon receipt of a request by the Issuer accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate certifying as to compliance with Section 13.2 of the A&R Indenture.
Release of Security
(a)
The Liens on the Collateral will be released in whole with respect to the Notes and the Security Documents, as applicable, upon the occurrence of any of the following:
(i)
payment in full in cash of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest and premium (if any) on, the Notes;
(ii)
satisfaction and discharge of the A&R Indenture; or
(iii)
legal defeasance or covenant defeasance as set forth under Sections 8.3 of the A&R Indenture or 8.4 of the A&R Indenture,
provided that in each case, all amounts owing to the Trustee under the A&R Indenture and the Notes and to the Collateral Trustee under the Security Documents have been paid or otherwise provided for to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee, as applicable.
(b)
The Liens on the Collateral will automatically be released with respect to any asset constituting Collateral upon the occurrence of any of the following:
(i)
in connection with any disposition of such Collateral to any Person other than the Issuer (but excluding any transaction subject to the covenant described under Section 10.1 of the A&R Indenture if such other Person is required to become the obligor on the Notes) that is permitted by the A&R Indenture; or
15

 
(ii)
upon the sale or disposition of such Collateral pursuant to the exercise of any rights and remedies by the Collateral Trustee with respect to any Collateral, subject to the Security Documents.
To the extent required by the A&R Indenture (other than in relation to (ii) above), the Issuer will furnish to the Trustee, prior to each proposed release of Collateral under the A&R Indenture, an Officer’s Certificate and/or an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions to the release of the Liens on the Collateral have been satisfied.
Satisfaction and Discharge
The A&R Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued thereunder (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Notes expressly provided for therein), when
(a)
either:
(i)
all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuer, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or
(ii)
all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, including by redemption, by reason of the mailing of a Redemption Notice or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year 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 U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not 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 (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit);
(c)
such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than the A&R Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;
(d)
the Issuer or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by the Issuer under the A&R Indenture; and
(e)
the Issuer has delivered irrevocable written instructions to the Trustee under the A&R Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be.
Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of the A&R Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(ii) of the A&R Indenture, the provisions of Sections 8.7 and 8.8 A&R Indenture will survive.
Evidence and Authority to Trustee, Opinions, etc.
(a)
The Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee evidence of compliance with the conditions precedent provided for in the A&R Indenture relating to any action or step required or permitted to be taken by the Issuer or the Trustee under the A&R Indenture or as a result of any obligation imposed under the A&R Indenture, including without limitation, the authentication and delivery of Notes thereunder, the satisfaction and discharge of the A&R and the taking of any other action to be taken by the Trustee at the request of or on the application of the Issuer, forthwith if and when (a) such evidence is required by any other Section of the A&R Indenture to be furnished to the Trustee in accordance
16

 
with the terms of Section 11.6 of the A&R Indenture, or (b) the Trustee, in the exercise of its rights and duties under the A&R Indenture, gives the Issuer written notice requiring it to furnish such evidence in relation to any particular action or obligation specified in such notice. Such evidence shall consist of:
(i)
an Officers’ Certificate, stating that any such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance with the terms of the A&R Indenture;
(ii)
in the case of a condition precedent the satisfaction of which is, by the terms of the A&R Indenture, made subject to review or examination by a solicitor, an Opinion of Counsel that such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance with the terms of the A&R Indenture; and
(iii)
in the case of any such condition precedent the satisfaction of which is subject to review or examination by auditors or accountants, an opinion or report of the Issuer’s Auditors whom the Trustee for such purposes hereby approves, that such condition precedent has been complied with in accordance with the terms of the A&R Indenture.
(b)
Whenever such evidence relates to a matter other than the authentication and delivery of Notes and the satisfaction and discharge of the A&R Indenture, and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such evidence may consist of a report or opinion of any solicitor, auditor, accountant, engineer or appraiser or any other appraiser or any other individual whose qualifications give authority to a statement made by such individual, provided that if such report or opinion is furnished by a director, officer or employee of the Issuer it shall be in the form of a statutory declaration. Such evidence shall be, so far as appropriate, in accordance with Section 11.6(a) of the A&R Indenture.
(c)
Each statutory declaration, certificate, opinion or report with respect to compliance with a condition precedent provided for in the A&R Indenture shall include (i) a statement by the individual giving the evidence that he or she has read and is familiar with those provisions of the A&R Indenture relating to the condition precedent in question, (ii) a brief statement of the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such evidence are based, (iii) a statement that, in the belief of the individual giving such evidence, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to make the statements or give the opinions contained or expressed therein, and (iv) a statement whether in the opinion of such individual the conditions precedent in question have been complied with or satisfied.
(d)
In addition to its obligations under Section 7.20 of the A&R Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee at any time if the Trustee reasonably so requires, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that the Issuer has complied with all covenants, conditions or other requirements contained in the A&R Indenture, the non-compliance with which would constitute a Default or an Event of Default, or if such is not the case, specifying the covenant, condition or other requirement which has not been complied with and giving particulars of such non-compliance. The Issuer shall, whenever the Trustee so requires, furnish the Trustee with evidence by way of statutory declaration, opinion, report or certificate as specified by the Trustee as to any action or step required or permitted to be taken by the Issuer or as a result of any obligation imposed by the A&R Indenture.
9.   Other Obligors.
No person, other than the Applicants, will be an obligor of the New Notes.
