Corrective Actions The Government will use its best efforts to ensure that each Covered Provider (i) takes, where necessary, appropriate and timely corrective actions in response to audits, (ii) considers whether the results of the Covered Provider’s audit necessitates adjustment of the Government’s records, and (iii) permits independent auditors to have access to its records and financial statements as necessary.
Successive Actions A separate right of action hereunder shall arise each time Lender acquires knowledge of any matter indemnified or guaranteed by Indemnitor under this Agreement. Separate and successive actions may be brought hereunder to enforce any of the provisions hereof at any time and from time to time. No action hereunder shall preclude any subsequent action, and Indemnitor hereby waives and covenants not to assert any defense in the nature of splitting of causes of action or merger of judgments.
Restricted Actions (a) Subject to Section 4.04, during the period beginning on the Distribution Date and ending on, and including, the last day of the two-year period following the Distribution Date (the “Restricted Period”), AdvanSix shall not (and shall not cause or permit any of its Subsidiaries to), in a single transaction or a series of transactions:
(i) enter into any Proposed Acquisition Transaction;
(ii) take any affirmative action that permits a Proposed Acquisition Transaction to occur by means of an agreement to which neither AdvanSix nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party (including by (A) redeeming rights under a shareholder rights plan, (B) making a determination that a tender offer is a “permitted offer” under any such plan or otherwise causing any such plan to be inapplicable or neutralized with respect to any Proposed Acquisition Transaction or (C) approving any Proposed Acquisition Transaction, whether for purposes of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporate Law or any similar corporate statute, any “fair price” or other provision of AdvanSix’s charter or bylaws or otherwise);
(iii) liquidate or partially liquidate AdvanSix, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, a merger of another entity into AdvanSix or any of its Subsidiaries shall not constitute an action described in this Section 4.03(a)(iii));
(iv) cause or permit AdvanSix to cease to engage in the Active Trade or Business;
(v) sell or transfer 50% or more of the gross assets of the Active Trade or Business or 50% or more of the gross assets of the “separate affiliated group” (within the meaning of Section 355(b)(3)(B) of the Code) of AdvanSix (the “AdvanSix SAG”) held immediately before the Distribution (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to sales, transfers or dispositions of assets to any member of the AdvanSix SAG); or
(vi) redeem or otherwise repurchase (directly or indirectly) any AdvanSix Stock, except to the extent such redemptions or repurchases meet the following requirements: (A) those redemptions or purchases are for business reasons unrelated to the Distribution, (B) AdvanSix Stock to be purchased is widely held, (C) those redemptions or purchases will be made on the open market and (D) the aggregate amount of those redemptions or purchases will be less than 20% of the total value of the outstanding AdvanSix Stock.
(i) For purposes of this Agreement, “Proposed Acquisition Transaction” means any transaction or series of transactions (or any agreement, understanding or arrangement to enter into a transaction or series of transactions) as determined for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Code, in connection with which one or more Persons would (directly or indirectly) acquire, or have the right to acquire (including pursuant to an option, warrant or other conversion right), from any other Person or Persons, an interest in AdvanSix Stock that, when combined with any other acquisitions of AdvanSix Stock that occur after the Distribution (but excluding any other acquisition described in clause (ii)) comprises 40% or more of the value or the total combined voting power of all interests that are treated as outstanding equity in AdvanSix for U.S. Federal income Tax purposes immediately after such transaction or, in the case of a series of related transactions, immediately after any transaction in such series. For this purpose, any recapitalization, repurchase or redemption of AdvanSix Stock and any amendment to the certificate of incorporation (or other organizational documents) of AdvanSix shall be treated as an indirect acquisition of AdvanSix Stock by any shareholder to the extent such shareholder’s percentage interest in interests that are treated as outstanding equity in AdvanSix for U.S. Federal income Tax purposes increases by vote or value.
Derivative Actions In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 3816 of the Delaware Act, a Shareholder may bring a derivative action on behalf of the Trust only if the following conditions are met:
(a) The Shareholder or Shareholders must make a pre-suit demand upon the Trustees to bring the subject action unless an effort to cause the Trustees to bring such an action is not likely to succeed. For purposes of this Section 8.9(a), a demand on the Trustees shall only be deemed not likely to succeed and therefore excused if a majority of the Board of Trustees, or a majority of any committee established to consider the merits of such action, is composed of Trustees who are not “independent trustees” (as that term is defined in the Delaware Act);
(b) Unless a demand is not required under paragraph (a) of this Section 8.9, Shareholders eligible to bring such derivative action under the Delaware Act who collectively hold Shares representing ten percent (10%) or more of the total combined net asset value of all Shares issued and outstanding or of the Series or Classes to which such action relates if it does not relate to all Series and Classes, shall join in the request for the Trustees to commence such action; and
(c) Unless a demand is not required under paragraph (a) of this Section 8.9, the Trustees must be afforded a reasonable amount of time to consider such Shareholder request and to investigate the basis of such claim. The Trustees shall be entitled to retain counsel or other advisors in considering the merits of the request and shall require an undertaking by the Shareholders making such request to reimburse the Trust for the expense of any such advisors in the event that the Trustees determine not to bring such action.
(d) For purposes of this Section 8.9, the Board of Trustees may designate a committee of one Trustee to consider a Shareholder demand if necessary to create a committee with a majority of Trustees who are “independent trustees” (as that term is defined in the Delaware Act). The Trustees shall be entitled to retain counsel or other advisors in considering the merits of the request and may require an undertaking by the Shareholders making such request to reimburse the Trust for the expense of any such advisors in the event that the Trustees determine not to bring such action.
Corrective Action Despite its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Article, the LHIN may choose not to terminate this Agreement and may take whatever corrective action it considers necessary and appropriate, including suspending Funding for such period as the LHIN determines, to ensure the successful completion of the Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Corrective Action Plans If the OAG finds deficiencies in XXXXXXX’s performance under this Grant Contract, the OAG, at its sole discretion, may impose one or more of the following remedies as part of a corrective action plan: increase of monitoring visits; require additional or more detailed financial and/or programmatic reports be submitted; require prior approval for expenditures; require additional technical or management assistance and/or make modifications in business practices; reduce the contract amount; and/or terminate this Grant Contract. The foregoing are not exclusive remedies, and the OAG may impose other requirements that the OAG determines will be in the best interest of the State.

(c) Upon the terms and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent and the Company agree, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries, to cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to (i) obtain any FCC Consents, PSC Consents, and Local Consents, and to make any registrations, declarations, notices or filings, if any, necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) in consultation and cooperation with the other, as promptly as practicable file all applications required to be filed with the FCC (the “FCC Applications”), any State Regulators (the “PSC Applications”) and any Localities to obtain the FCC Consents, PSC Consents and Local Consents, respectively, (iii) respond as promptly as practicable to any requests of the FCC, any State Regulator, or any Locality for information relating to any FCC Application or PSC Application, as applicable; provided, that each of Parent and the Company shall consult with the other before communicating with any Governmental Entity relating to these matters, and to the extent permitted by applicable Law and reasonably practicable shall enable the other party to participate in each such communication, and (iv) cure, not later than the Effective Time, any material violations or defaults under any FCC Rules or rules of any State Regulator or Locality.
(d) Upon the terms and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent and the Company agree, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries, to cooperate and to use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any Consents of any Governmental Entity, and to make any registrations, declarations, notices or filings, if any, necessary for Closing under the HSR Act, and any other Federal, state or foreign Law designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions for the purpose or effect of monopolization, restraint of trade or regulation of foreign investment (collectively, “Antitrust Laws”), to respond to any requests of any Governmental Entity for information under any Antitrust Law, to secure the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period, to resolve any objections asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby raised by any Governmental Entity and to contest and resist any action, including any legislative, administrative or judicial action, and to prevent the entry of any court order and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Judgment (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that restricts, prevents or prohibits the consummation of the Merger or any other transactions contemplated hereby under any Antitrust Law.
(e) Subject to applicable Law and the instructions of any Governmental Entity, Parent and the Company shall in good faith cooperate, consult and consider the other’s views in order to jointly develop (but subject to Parent’s final approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)), (x) the strategy for obtaining any Consents from any Governmental Entity (including the FCC Consents, PSC Consents and Local Consents) in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and (y) the positions to be taken and the regulatory actions to be requested in any filing or submission with a Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry or Action by or before, or any negotiations with, a Governmental Entity relating to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and of all other regulatory matters incidental thereto.
(f) For the purposes of this Section 6.03, “reasonable best efforts” shall include taking any and all actions necessary to obtain the Consents of any Governmental Entity (including the FCC Consents, PSC Consents and Local Consents) required to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby prior to the End Date; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall permit the Company or the Company Subsidiaries (without the prior written consent of Parent) or require Parent or the Parent Subsidiaries to take or refrain from taking, or agree to take or refrain from taking, any action or actions that, individually or in the aggregate, would be reasonably likely to have a either a Parent Material Adverse Effect or Company Material Adverse Effect (each a “Burdensome Condition”). For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any request or consent of Parent to do so, in no event shall the Company or the Company Subsidiaries be required to submit to a Burdensome Condition unless such Burdensome Condition is conditioned in all respects upon the consummation of the Merger and will not be effective for any purpose until after the Effective Time, and any such Burdensome Condition imposed on the Company or the Company Subsidiaries at the request of or with the consent of Parent shall not affect any representation or warranty of the Company under this Agreement or any condition under Section 7.01 or Section 7.03 to the obligation of Parent and Merger Sub to effect the Merger.
Corrective Action Plan Within fifteen (15) Business Days following the establishment of the Joint Remediation Committee, the Purchasers, in consultation with the Sellers, shall prepare and submit to the Joint Remediation Committee an initial draft of the Corrective Action Plan. The parties shall work in good faith through the Joint Remediation Committee to finalize the Corrective Action Plan within fifteen (15) Business Days of the Purchasers’ submission of the initial draft of the Correct Action Plan. At the end of such period, if the Sellers reasonably determine that the Corrective Action Plan proposed by the Purchasers (as may be modified over the course of such period) would not reasonably be expected to satisfactorily address the Major Default, then the Sellers may escalate the issue to the Head of Commercial Capital (or equivalent leader of any successor business unit) of the Seller Group and the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank Assets Purchaser (the “Senior Executives”) and the Senior Executives shall work collaboratively (including with the Joint Remediation Committee) to develop a mutually agreeable Corrective Action Plan within fifteen (15) Business Days.
Alternative Action In the event it shall become impossible for the Bank or the Plan Administrator to perform any act required by this Agreement due to regulatory or other constraints, the Bank or Plan Administrator may perform such alternative act as most nearly carries out the intent and purpose of this Agreement and is in the best interests of the Bank, provided that such alternative act does not violate Code Section 409A.
