Upon any such permitted assignment of all or any portion of an Entire Interest, and after such assumption, the assignor shall be relieved of its agreements and obligations hereunder arising after such assignment with respect to the interest transferred, and, in the case of a transfer of an Entire Interest, the assignee shall become a Member in place of the assignor. An executed counterpart of each such assignment of all or any portion of an Entire Interest in the Company and assumption of a Member’s obligations shall be delivered to each Member and to the Company. The assignee shall pay all expenses incurred by the Company in admitting the assignee as a Member. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no permitted assignment shall terminate the Company. As a condition to any assignment of all or any portion of an Entire Interest, the selling Member shall obtain such consents as may be required from third parties, if any, or waivers thereof. The other Members shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the selling Member in obtaining such consents or waivers.
Termination by Purchaser (i) This Agreement may be terminated by Purchaser at any time prior to the Closing, if (A) Seller shall have breached or failed to comply, in any material respect, with any of Seller’s covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or (B) there shall have been a breach of or inaccuracy in any material respect when made with one or more of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement and, in the case of clauses (A) and (B) above, such breach, failure or inaccuracy would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.01 to be satisfied, which breach, failure or inaccuracy is not cured (if capable of being cured prior to the Closing) within thirty (30) days (or by the Outside Date, if sooner) after receiving notice thereof from Purchaser; provided, that Purchaser may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.01(b)(ii) only if at the time of termination (x) Purchaser is not in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and (y) Purchaser has satisfied those conditions set forth in Section 7.02 required to be satisfied by it (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing). (ii) This Agreement may be terminated by Purchaser if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the Outside Date; provided, however, that (A) Purchaser may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.01(b)(ii) only if at the time of termination (x) Purchaser is not in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and (y) Purchaser has satisfied those conditions set forth in Section 7.02 required to be satisfied by it (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) and (B) Purchaser may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.01(b)(ii) during the pendency of any Legal Proceeding brought by Seller for specific performance of Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the Closing pursuant to Section 10.15. (iii) This Agreement may be terminated by Purchaser at any time prior to the Closing, if a final, non-appealable Closing Legal Impediment shall be in effect; provided, that Purchaser may not rely upon this Section 9.01(b)(iii) to terminate this Agreement if Purchaser’s failure to fulfill any obligation or condition under this Agreement materially contributed to the cause of such Closing Legal Impediment.
Assumption by Successor The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, by operation of law or by agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Executive, to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.
Assignment; Assumption by Successor The rights of the Company under this Agreement may, without the consent of Executive, be assigned by the Company, in its sole and unfettered discretion, to any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger or otherwise, directly or indirectly, acquires all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company. The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company expressly to assume and to agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place; provided, however, that no such assumption shall relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. As used in this Agreement, the “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise.

Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption or purchase as follows: (1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or (2) if the Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased will be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption or purchase date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase.

Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.
