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.
Liens and Liabilities Borrower shall pay when due all claims and demands of mechanics, materialmen, laborers and others for any work performed or materials delivered for the Property or the Improvements (collectively, “Property Payables”); provided, however, Borrower shall have the right to contest in good faith any such claim or demand, so long as it does so diligently, by appropriate proceedings and without prejudice to Lender and provided that neither the Property nor any interest therein would be in any danger of sale, loss or forfeiture as a result of such proceeding or contest. In the event that a mechanic’s or materialman's lien or similar proceeding is filed against the Property, or a claim is filed against Borrower or any Recourse Parties, and Borrower shall contest such lien, proceeding or claim, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of such contest and thereafter shall, upon Lender’s request, promptly provide a bond, cash deposit or other security satisfactory to Lender to protect Lender’s interest and security should the contest be unsuccessful. If Borrower shall fail to immediately discharge or provide security against any such lien, proceeding or claim as aforesaid, Lender may do so and any and all expenses incurred by Lender, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date advanced by Lender until actually paid by Borrower, shall be immediately paid by Borrower on demand and shall be secured by this Instrument and by all other Documents securing all or any part of the Obligations. Nothing in the Documents shall be deemed or construed as constituting the consent or request by Lender, express or implied, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer, mechanic or materialman for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any material for any improvement, construction, alteration, or repair of the Property. Borrower further agrees that Lender does not stand in any fiduciary relationship to Borrower. Any contributions made, directly or indirectly, to Borrower by or on behalf of any of its partners, members, principals or any party related to such parties shall be treated as equity and shall be subordinate and inferior to the rights of Lender under the Documents.
Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, Seller Any Person: (a) into which the Seller may be merged or consolidated, (b) that may result from any merger or consolidation to which the Seller shall be a party or (c) that may succeed to the properties and assets of the Seller substantially as a whole, which Person (in any of the foregoing cases) executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Seller under this Agreement (or is deemed by law to have assumed such obligations), shall be the successor to the Seller hereunder without the execution or filing of any document or any further act by any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that: (i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 3.1 shall have been breached and no Servicer Default, and no event that, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) the Seller shall have delivered to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section and that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been complied with, (iii) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such transaction and (iv) the Seller shall have delivered to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either: (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Trustee and Indenture Trustee, respectively, in the Receivables and reciting the details of such filings, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interests. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) shall be conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clauses (a), (b) or (c).
Assumption of Certain Obligations Buyer shall assume only those liabilities related to the Business or Assets which are referred to in Section 2.2(a) or are otherwise expressly assumed in this Agreement (the “Assumed Liabilities”).
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.
