Common use of Asset Sale Clause in Contracts

Asset Sale. The consummation of a sale or disposition by CEP of all or substantially all of CEP’s assets, other than a sale or disposition where the holders of CEP Voting Securities outstanding immediately prior thereto hold securities immediately thereafter that represent more than 60% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the acquiror, or parent of the acquiror, of such assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except with respect to CEG or any of its Affiliates, a change in control of CEP shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires beneficial ownership of more than 25% of CEP Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of CEP Voting Securities by CEP that reduces the number of CEP Voting Securities outstanding; provided, however, that if after such acquisition by CEP such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional CEP Voting Securities that increases the percentage of outstanding CEP Voting Securities beneficially owned by such person, a change in control of CEP shall then occur.
