Full text of Guam Guam Code Annotated § 7 — Acceleration of Maturities., with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 7. Acceleration of Maturities.
If an Event of Default shall occur, then, and in each and every
such case during the continuance of such Event of Default, the
Trustee or the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding shall be
entitled, upon notice in writing to the Government, but only upon
the written consent of each Credit Provider that is not then in
default under its Credit Facility, to declare the principal of all of
the Bonds then Outstanding, and the interest accrued thereon, to
be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration
the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable,
anything in this Indenture or in the Bonds contained to the
contrary notwithstanding. No Credit Provider shall be entitled to
give such consent unless it has agreed to pay the Bonds payment
of which is supported by such Credit Facility, as accelerated.
Any such declaration, however, is subject to the condition
that if, at any time after such declaration and before any judgment
or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been
obtained or entered, the Government shall deposit with the Trustee
a sum sufficient to pay all the principal or Redemption Price of
and installments of interest on the Bonds payment of which is
overdue, with interest on such overdue principal at the rare borne
by the respective Bonds, and the reasonable charges and expenses
of the Trustee, and any and all other Events of Default known to
the Trustee (other than in the payment of principal of and interest
on the Bonds due and payable solely by reason of such
declaration) shall have been made good or cured to the satisfaction
of the Trustee or provision deemed by the Trustee to be adequate
shall have been made therefor, then, and in every such case, the
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Bonds then Outstanding, by written notice to the
Government and to the Trustee, may, on behalf of the Holders of
all of the Bonds, rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences and waive such default; but no such rescission and
annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default,
or shall impair or exhaust any right or power consequent thereon.
