Non-Assumption of Liabilities Except as explicitly set ----------------------------- forth in Section 1.7 above, Purchasers shall not, by the execution and performance of this Agreement or otherwise, assume, become responsible for, or incur any liability or obligation of any nature of the Company, whether legal or equitable, matured or contingent, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, ordinary or extraordinary, patent or latent, whether arising out of occurrences prior to, at, or after the date of this Agreement, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any liability or obligation arising out of or relating to: (a) any occurrence or circumstance (whether known or unknown) which occurs or exists on or prior to the Closing Date and constitutes, or which by the lapse of time or giving notice (or both) would constitute, a breach or default under any lease, contract, or other instrument or agreement or obligation (whether written or oral); (b) injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of any property, whether based on negligence, breach of warranty, or any other theory; (c) violation of the requirements of any governmental authority or of the rights of any third person, including, without limitation, any requirements relating to the reporting and payment of federal, state, local or other income, sales, use, franchise, excise or property tax liabilities of Sellers; (d) the generation, collection, transportation, storage or disposal by the Company of any materials, including, without limitation, hazardous materials; (f) any severance pay obligation of the Company, compensation owed employees of the Company for periods prior to the Closing Date, or any obligations under any employee benefit plan (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended) or any other fringe benefit program maintained or sponsored by Company or to which any of the Company contributes or any contributions, benefits or liabilities therefor or any liability for the withdrawal or partial withdrawal from or termination of any such plan or program by the Company; (g) the debts and obligations of the Company, except for the Assumed Liabilities; (h) any violation by the Company of any law, including, without limitation, any federal, state or local antitrust, racketeering or trade practice law; and (i) liabilities or obligations of the Sellers for brokerage or other commissions relative to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder.
Notice of Third Party Claims; Assumption of Defense The Indemnified Person shall give notice as promptly as is reasonably practicable to Barberry of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding, by any Person not a party hereto (a “Third Party Claim”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Person to promptly give notice shall not relieve Barberry of its obligations except to the extent (if any) that Barberry shall have been prejudiced thereby. Barberry may, at its own expense, participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding (a) upon notice to the Indemnified Person and (b) upon delivery by Barberry to the Indemnified Person a written agreement that the Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification for all Losses arising out of such Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding and that Barberry shall be liable for the entire amount of any Loss, at any time during the course of any such Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding, assume the defense thereof; provided, however, that (i) Barberry’s counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, and (ii) Barberry shall thereafter consult with the Indemnified Person upon the Indemnified Person’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding. If Barberry assumes such defense, the Indemnified Person shall have the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by Barberry. If, however, the Indemnified Person reasonably determines in its judgment that representation by Barberry’s counsel of both Barberry and the Indemnified Person would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, then such Indemnified Person may employ separate counsel to represent or defend it in any such Third Party Claim, action, suit or proceeding and Barberry shall pay all of the fees and disbursements in connection with the retention of such separate counsel. If Barberry fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party that Barberry desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant, or if Barberry gives such notice but fails to prosecute vigorously and diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of Barberry, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be prosecuted by the Indemnified Person in good faith or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Person (with the consent of Barberry, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnified Person will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof. Whether or not Barberry chooses to defend or prosecute any such Third Party Claim, suit, action or proceeding, all of the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof.
No Consent to Assumption Each Holder of a Security, by acceptance thereof, shall be deemed expressly to have withheld any consent to the assumption under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, of the Purchase Contract by the Company or its trustee, receiver, liquidator or a person or entity performing similar functions in the event that the Company becomes the debtor under the Bankruptcy Code or subject to other similar state or Federal law providing for reorganization or liquidation.
Assignment and Assumption of Liabilities Seller hereby assigns to Split-Off Subsidiary, and Split-Off Subsidiary hereby assumes and agrees to pay, honor and discharge all debts, adverse claims, liabilities, judgments and obligations of Seller as of the Effective Time, whether accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether known or unknown, including those arising under any law (including the common law) or any rule or regulation of any Governmental Entity or imposed by any court or any arbitrator in a binding arbitration resulting from, arising out of or relating to the assets, activities, operations, actions or omissions of Seller, or products manufactured or sold thereby or services provided thereby, or under contracts, agreements (whether written or oral), leases, commitments or undertakings thereof, but excluding in all cases the obligations of Seller under the Transaction Documentation (all of the foregoing being referred to herein as the “Assigned Liabilities”). The assignment and assumption of Seller’s assets and liabilities provided for in this Article I is referred to as the “Assignment.”
Assignment and Assumption Consent Effective as of the First Amendment Effective Date, for agreed consideration, XXX hereby irrevocably sells and assigns to MBL, and MBL hereby irrevocably purchases and assumes all rights and obligations in its capacity as Lender under the LC Reimbursement Agreement and other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all of MBL’s rights and obligations with respect to the Collateral and Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents (as defined in the Collateral and Intercreditor Agreement, and such Security Documents together with the Collateral and Intercreditor Agreement are referred to herein as the “Security Documents”) (the “Lender Assignment”). Effective as of the First Amendment Effective Date and in accordance with Section 7.9 of the LC Reimbursement Agreement, the Account Party hereby consents to the Lender Assignment.
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.
Assumption of Agreement Employer shall require any Successor thereto, by agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Executive, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that Employer would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of Employer to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle Executive to compensation from Employer in the same amount and on the same terms as Executive would be entitled hereunder if Employer had terminated Executive’s employment Without Cause as described in Section 7, except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such succession becomes effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination.
Successors, Assumption of Contract This Agreement is personal to the Executive and may not be assigned by the Executive without the written consent of the Company. However, to the extent that rights or benefits under this Agreement otherwise survive the Executive’s death, the Executive’s heirs and estate shall succeed to such rights and benefits pursuant to the Executive’s will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided that the Executive shall have the right at any time and from time to time, by notice delivered to the Company, to designate or to change the beneficiary or beneficiaries with respect to such benefits. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor of the Company, subject to the following:
Discretionary Nature and Acceptance of Award By accepting this Award, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and acknowledge that:
