Notice of Termination Payment As soon as practicable after calculation of a Termination Payment, notice shall be given by the Non-Defaulting Party to the Defaulting Party of the amount of the Termination Payment and whether the Termination Payment is due to or due from the Non-Defaulting Party. The notice shall include a written statement explaining in reasonable detail the calculation of such amount. Subject to Section 5.4(b) above, the Termination Payment shall be made by the Party that owes it within three (3) Business Days after such notice is effective.
Expenses; Termination Fee (a) Except as set forth in this Section 8.3 and Section 6.12, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated herein shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Offer and Merger are consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall pay all filing fees payable pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws, and the Company shall not be required to pay any fees or other payments to any Governmental Entity in connection with any filings under the HSR Act or such other filings as may be required under applicable Antitrust Laws in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(b) If: (i) (A) this Agreement is validly terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(g), (B) following the date hereof and prior to the time of the termination of this Agreement, an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly announced and (C) the Company consummates an Acquisition Proposal (with all references to 15% in the definition of Acquisition Proposal being treated as 50% for purposes of this clause “(i)”) within twelve (12) months after such termination or the Company enters into a definitive agreement within twelve (12) months after such termination to effect an Acquisition Proposal, which Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated; (ii) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(e); or (iii) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(f), then in the case of each of clauses “(i)” through “(iii),” the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent, in cash at the time specified in the next sentence, a termination fee in the amount of $7,712,711 (the “Termination Fee”). Any Termination Fee shall be paid: (x) in the case of clause “(i)” of the preceding sentence of this (b), within two (2) Business Days after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Acquisition Proposal, (y) in the case of clause “(ii)” of the preceding sentence of this (b), within two (2) Business Days following termination of this Agreement and (z) in the case of clause “(iii)” of the preceding sentence of this (b), concurrently with a termination of this Agreement under Section 8.1(f). Any Termination Fee due under this Section 8.3(b) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, the Termination Fee shall be payable only once and not in duplication even though the Termination Fee may be payable under one or more provisions hereof. Subject to Section 8.2(b), in the event that Parent shall receive full payment of the Termination Fee, the receipt of the Termination Fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by Parent, Acquisition Sub, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the Offer and the Merger (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, and none of Parent, Acquisition Sub, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person shall be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding against the Company or any of its Affiliates for damages or any equitable relief arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the transactions or any matters forming the basis for such termination.
(c) The Company and Parent acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the Company and Parent would not enter into this Agreement. In the event that the Company shall fail to pay the Termination Fee when due, Parent shall be entitled to receive interest on such unpaid Termination Fee and Expenses, commencing on the date that the Termination Fee or such Expenses became due, at a rate equal to the “prime rate” as published in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment (calculated daily on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding) and in the event the Parent or Acquisition Sub commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the Termination Fee (or portion thereof), the Company shall pay Parent its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit.
Company Termination Fee (i) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(i), or in the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(ii), then, in each case, the Company shall pay to Parent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, a fee in the amount of $135,500,000 (the “Company Termination Fee”) at or prior to the termination of this Agreement in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(ii) or as promptly as practicable (and, in any event, within two Business Days following such termination) in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(i).
(ii) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(i) or Section 9.1(b)(iii), or in the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(ii) in respect of a Willful Breach by the Company of a covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, and in each case at any time after the date of this Agreement prior to such termination (i) a Company Acquisition Proposal has been made to the Company and publicly announced and has not been withdrawn prior to the termination of this Agreement (or prior to the Company Stockholders’ Meeting in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(iii)) and (ii) within twelve months after such termination, the Company (A) enters into an agreement with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal and such Company Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated or (B) consummates a Company Acquisition Proposal, then, in any such event, the Company shall pay to Parent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Company Termination Fee less the amount of any Parent Expenses previously paid by the Company concurrently with the consummation of such transaction arising from such Company Acquisition Proposal (and in any event, within two Business Days following such consummation); provided, however, that for purposes of the definition of “Company Acquisition Proposal” in this Section 9.3(a)(ii), references to “15%” and “85%” shall be replaced by “50%”).
Extension of Termination Date (a) The Borrower may, by notice to the Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Banks) not less than 30 days and not more than 45 days prior to the Termination Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Termination Date”), request that the Banks extend the Termination Date for an additional 364 days from the Existing Termination Date. Each Bank, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to the Borrower and the Agent given on the date (and, subject to the provision below, only on the date) 15 days prior to the Existing Termination Date (provided, if such date is not a Domestic Business Day, then such notice shall be given on the next succeeding Domestic Business Day) (the “Consent Date”), advise the Borrower whether or not such Bank agrees to such extension; provided that each Bank that determines not to extend the Termination Date (a “Non-Extending Bank”) shall notify the Agent (who shall notify the Borrower) of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than the Consent Date) and any Bank that does not advise the Borrower on or before the Consent Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Bank. The election of any Bank to agree to an extension of the Termination Date shall not obligate any other Bank to agree to such extension.
(b) The Borrower shall have the right on or before the Existing Termination Date to replace each Non-Extending Bank with, and otherwise add to this Agreement, one or more other commercial banks, which may include any Bank (each, prior to the Existing Termination Date, an “Additional Commitment Bank”) with the approval of the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld). Each Additional Commitment Bank shall enter into an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Bank shall, effective as of the Existing Termination Date, undertake a Commitment (an “Additional Commitment”). If any such Additional Commitment Bank is a Bank, its Additional Commitment shall be in addition to such Bank’s Commitment hereunder on such date.
(c) If (and only if) Banks with Commitment Amounts that, in the aggregate, together with the proposed Commitment Amounts of the Additional Commitment Banks that will become effective on the Existing Termination Date, aggregate at least 51% of the aggregate Commitment Amounts (not including the proposed Commitment Amounts of the Additional Commitment Banks) on the Consent Date shall have agreed to extend the Existing Termination Date, then, effective as of the Existing Termination Date, the Existing Termination Date shall be extended to the date which is 364 days after the Existing Termination Date (provided, if such date is not a Domestic Business Day, then such Termination Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Domestic Business Day) and each Additional Commitment Bank shall thereupon become a “Bank” with a Commitment for all purposes of this Agreement.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of the Existing Termination Date shall not be effective with respect to any Bank unless:
(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the notice requesting such extension, the Consent Date or the Existing Termination Date;
(ii) each of the representations and warranties of the Borrower in Article IV hereof shall be true and correct on and as of each of the date of the notice requesting such extension, the Consent Date and the Existing Termination Date with the same force and effect as if made on and as of each such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date); and
(iii) each Non-Extending Bank shall have been paid in full by the Borrower all amounts owing to such Bank hereunder on or before the Existing Termination Date.
(e) If the Existing Termination Date is extended as provided in this Section 2.09, (a) the Commitment of each Non-Extending Bank shall terminate on the Existing Termination Date and (b) from and after the Existing Termination Date, the aggregate Commitment Amounts of the Banks shall not include the Commitment Amounts of the Non-Extending Banks.
Notice of Payment of Termination Payment As soon as practicable after a liquidation, Notice shall be given by the Non-Defaulting Party to the Defaulting Party of the amount of the Termination Payment and whether the Termination Payment is due to the Non-Defaulting Party. The Notice shall include a written statement explaining in reasonable detail the calculation of such amount and the sources for such calculation. The Termination Payment shall be made to the Non-Defaulting Party, as applicable, within ten (10) Business Days after such Notice is effective.
Parent Termination Fee (i) If (A) either Parent or the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i) (End Date) and, at the time of such termination, any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(b)(i), Section 7.01(b)(ii) or Section 7.01(b)(iv) (Required Approvals), Section 7.03(d) (Absence of Burdensome Condition) or Section 7.01(c) (No Legal Restraints), in each case, solely with respect to the Termination Fee Approvals, shall have not been satisfied or waived or (B) either Parent or the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(ii) (Legal Restraint) (solely if the applicable Legal Restraint giving rise to such termination arises in connection with the Termination Fee Approvals) and in each case of the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), at the time of such termination, all other conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 7.01 (other than the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(b)(i), Section 7.01(b)(ii), Section 7.01(b)(iv) (Required Approvals) and Section 7.01(c) (No Legal Restraints), in each case, solely with respect to the Termination Fee Approvals) and Section 7.03 (other than the conditions set forth in Section 7.03(d) (Absence of Burdensome Condition), solely with respect to the Termination Fee Approvals) shall have been satisfied or waived (except for those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing but which conditions would be satisfied or would be capable of being satisfied if the Closing Date were the date of such termination), Parent shall pay the Parent Regulatory Termination Fee to the Company. Parent shall pay the Parent Regulatory Termination Fee to the Company (to an account designated in writing by the Company) prior to or concurrently with such termination of this Agreement by Parent or no later than three (3) Business Days after the date of the applicable termination by the Company.
(ii) If (A) the Company terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01(c)(ii) (Parent Terminable Breach) based on a failure by Parent to perform its covenants or agreements under Section 6.03, solely with respect to the Termination Fee Approvals, such failure to perform has resulted in the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(b)(i), Section 7.01(b)(ii), Section 7.01(b)(iv) (Required Approvals) or Section 7.01(c) (No Legal Restraints), in each case, solely with respect to the Termination Fee Approvals, and at the time of such termination, all other conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 7.01 (other than the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(b)(i), Section 7.01(b)(ii), Section 7.01(b)(iv) (Required Approvals) and Section 7.01(c) (No Legal Restraints), in each case, solely with respect to the Termination Fee Approvals) and Section 7.03 (other than the conditions set forth in Section 7.03(d) (Absence of Burdensome Condition), solely with respect to the Termination Fee Approvals) shall have been satisfied or waived (except for those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing but which conditions would be satisfied or would be capable of being satisfied if the Closing Date were the date of such termination), or (B) the Company terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01(c)(iii) (Parent Failure to Close), then Parent shall pay the Parent General Termination Fee to the Company. Parent shall pay the Parent General Termination Fee to the Company (to an account designated in writing by the Company) prior to or concurrently with such termination of this Agreement by Parent or no later than three (3) Business Days after the date of the applicable termination by the Company.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in the event that a Parent Termination Fee is due and payable, Parent shall have the right, at its election, to offset and reduce any Parent Termination Fee otherwise due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof, in whole or in part, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by all or any portion of the aggregate Liquidation Preference (as defined in Exhibit D) of all then-outstanding Preferred Stock held by Parent and any of its Affiliates, in exchange for the redemption of the applicable shares of Preferred Stock associated with such offset with no obligations thereunder outstanding. Without limitation of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in the event (x) the aggregate Liquidation Preference of all then-outstanding Preferred Stock held by Parent or any of its Affiliates equals or exceeds the applicable Parent Termination Fee otherwise due hereunder and (y) Parent elects to offset the full amount of the Parent Termination Fee by all or a portion of such aggregate Liquidation Preference pursuant to the preceding sentence, then neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall thereafter have any liability with respect to any such Parent Termination Fee.
Contents of Termination Notice A Termination Notice shall specify:
(a) the nature of the relevant Event of Default;
(b) a date and time, which shall be reasonable in the circumstances, at which termination is to take effect; and
(c) whether the party serving the Termination Notice reasonably considers that the Event of Default is capable of remedy, and where the relevant Event of Default is capable of remedy:
