Assumption of Liabilities On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to assume and become responsible for all of the Assumed Liabilities at the Closing. The Buyer will not assume or have any responsibility, however, with respect to any other obligation or Liability of the Seller not included within the definition of Assumed Liabilities.
Assumption of Certain Liabilities (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser shall assume, effective as of the Closing, and from and after the Closing Purchaser shall pay, perform, and discharge when due, all the liabilities, obligations, and commitments of Seller arising from or related to the Acquired Assets to the extent such liabilities, obligations, and commitments relate to the period from and after the Closing (the “Assumed Liabilities”).
Assumption and Retention of Liabilities; Related Assets (a) As of the Distribution Date, except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement, EWS shall, or shall cause one or more members of the EWS Group to, assume or retain and EWS hereby agrees to pay, perform, fulfill and discharge, in due course in full (i) all Liabilities under all EWS Benefit Plans (provided, that as between EWS and SNI, SNI shall be responsible for certain of those Liabilities pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of this Agreement), (ii) all Liabilities with respect to the employment, retirement, service, termination of employment or termination of service of all EWS Employees, Former EWS Employees, their dependents and beneficiaries and other service providers (including any individual who is, or was, an independent contractor, temporary employee, temporary service worker, consultant, freelancer, agency employee, leased employee, on-call worker, incidental worker, or nonpayroll worker of any member of the EWS Group or in any other employment, non-employment, or retainer arrangement or relationship with any member of the EWS Group), in each case to the extent arising in connection with or as a result of employment with or the performance of services for any member of the EWS Group, and (iii) any other Liabilities expressly assumed by or retained by EWS or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates under this Agreement. For purposes of clarification and the avoidance of doubt, (x) the Liabilities assumed or retained by the EWS Group as provided for in this Section 2.01(a) are intended to be EWS Liabilities as such term is defined in the Separation Agreement, and (y) the Parties intend that such Liabilities assumed or retained by the EWS Group include the retirement benefits and health and welfare plan benefits under the EWS Benefit Plans for all EWS Employees, Former EWS Employees, their dependants, beneficiaries, alternate payees and surviving spouses.
Assets and Liabilities of Series All consideration received by the Trust for the issue or sale of Shares of a particular Series, together with all assets in which such consideration is invested or reinvested, all income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof (including any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds in whatever form the same may be), shall be held and accounted for separately from the assets of every other Series and are referred to as "assets belonging to" that Series. The assets belonging to a Series shall belong only to that Series for all purposes, and to no other Series, subject only to the rights of creditors of that Series. Any assets, income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof, funds, or payments which are not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular Series shall be allocated by the Trustees between and among one or more Series as the Trustees deem fair and equitable. Each such allocation shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholders of all Series for all purposes, and such assets, earnings, income, profits or funds, or payments and proceeds thereof shall be referred to as assets belonging to that Series. The assets belonging to a Series shall be so recorded upon the books of the Trust, and shall be held by the Trustees in trust for the benefit of the Shareholders of that Series. The assets belonging to a Series shall be charged with the liabilities of that Series and all expenses, costs, charges and reserves attributable to that Series, except that liabilities and expenses allocated solely to a particular Class shall be borne by that Class. Any general liabilities, expenses, costs, charges or reserves of the Trust which are not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular Series or Class shall be allocated and charged by the Trustees between or among any one or more of the Series or Classes in such manner as the Trustees deem fair and equitable. Each such allocation shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholders of all Series or Classes for all purposes. Without limiting the foregoing, but subject to the right of the Trustees to allocate general liabilities, expenses, costs, charges or reserves as herein provided, the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Series shall be enforceable against the assets of such Series only, and not against the assets of any other Series. Notice of this contractual limitation on liabilities among Series may, in the Trustees' discretion, be set forth in the certificate of trust of the Trust (whether originally or by amendment) as filed or to be filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to the Delaware Act, and upon the giving of such notice in the certificate of trust, the statutory provisions of Section 3804 of the Delaware Act relating to limitations on liabilities among Series (and the statutory effect under Section 3804 of setting forth such notice in the certificate of trust) shall become applicable to the Trust and each Series. Any person extending credit to, contracting with or having any claim against any Series may look only to the assets of that Series to satisfy or enforce any debt, with respect to that Series. No Shareholder or former Shareholder of any Series shall have a claim on or any right to any assets allocated or belonging to any other Series.
Liabilities of Seller All liabilities of Seller related to the Business or the Assets that are not Assumed Liabilities will be promptly paid by Seller as they come due.
Transfer of Assets; Assumption of Liabilities (a) Prior to the Distribution, in accordance with the plan and structure set forth on Schedule 2.1(a) (such plan and structure being referred to herein as the “Spinoff Plan”) and to the extent not previously effected pursuant to the steps of the Spinoff Plan that have been completed prior to the date hereof:
Merger, Consolidation or Assumption of the Obligations of Seller; Certain Limitations Any Person (i) into which the Seller may be merged or consolidated, (ii) which may result from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Seller shall be a party or (iii) which may succeed to all or substantially all of the business of the Seller, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Seller under this Agreement, shall be the successor to the Seller under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any document or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement, except that if the Seller in any of the foregoing cases is not the surviving entity, then the surviving entity shall execute an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Seller hereunder. The Seller shall satisfy the Rating Agency Condition with respect to any merger, consolidation or succession pursuant to this Section.
Assumption of Agreements Subject to the provisions of Section 4.8(b), with respect to agreements existing as of the Bank Closing Date which provide for the rendering of services by or to the Failed Bank, within ninety (90) days after the Bank Closing Date, the Assuming Institution shall give the Receiver written notice specifying whether it elects to assume or not to assume each such agreement. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Article IV, the Assuming Institution agrees to comply with the terms of each such agreement for a period commencing on the day after the Bank Closing Date and ending on: (i) in the case of an agreement that provides for the rendering of services by the Failed Bank, the date which is ninety (90) days after the Bank Closing Date, and (ii) in the case of an agreement that provides for the rendering of services to the Failed Bank, the date which is thirty (30) days after the Assuming Institution has given notice to the Receiver of its election not to assume such agreement; provided that the Receiver can reasonably make such service agreements available to the Assuming Institution. The Assuming Institution shall be deemed by the Receiver to have assumed agreements for which no notification is timely given. The Receiver agrees to assign, transfer, convey and deliver to the Assuming Institution all right, title and interest of the Receiver, if any, in and to agreements the Assuming Institution assumes hereunder. In the event the Assuming Institution elects not to accept an assignment of any lease (or sublease) or negotiate a new lease for leased Bank Premises under Section 4.6 and does not otherwise occupy such premises, the provisions of this Section 4.8(a) shall not apply to service agreements related to such premises. The Assuming Institution agrees, during the period it has the use or benefit of any such agreement, promptly to pay to the Receiver or to appropriate third parties at the direction of the Receiver all operating costs with respect thereto and to comply with all relevant terms of such agreement.
Assumption of Contracts The sale of the Assets is and will be made subject to the Contracts to which the Assets are presently subject. Buyer shall assume and be responsible for all obligations accruing under the Contracts after the Effective Time.
