Financing Commitments (a) Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and shall use its reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the proceeds of the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter, (ii) satisfy (or obtain the waiver of) on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Buyer to obtain the Debt Financing, including, as promptly as practicable following the Agreement Date and receipt from Parent or its Affiliates, as applicable, delivering to the Lead Arranger (as defined in the Debt Commitment Letter), the documents and information required under the Debt Commitment Letter to commence the marketing period under the Debt Commitment Letter, (iii) negotiate definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (including any “flex” provisions) or on other terms that, in the Buyer’s sole discretion, (A) would otherwise be permitted by Section 5.11(b) and (B) would not reasonably be expected to materially delay or adversely affect, in any material respect, the ability of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing and (v) enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter. Buyer shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any material provision or remedy under, the Debt Commitment Letter or any ancillary letters referred to therein without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) if such amendment, modification or waiver (A) adds any new conditions to the consummation of all or any portion of the Debt Financing or amends, replaces, supplements or modifies any existing conditions to the consummation of all or any portion of the Debt Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to prevent, or impede or materially delay the Debt Financing, (B) reduces (or has the effect of reducing) the amount of the Debt Financing (including by increasing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount in respect of the Debt Financing (except as set forth in any flex provisions existing on the date hereof)) to an amount that, together with other available cash or other funds of Buyer and its Subsidiaries, would on the Closing Date be less than the amount required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (C) could otherwise reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or materially delay availability of the Debt Financing or (D) materially adversely affects the ability of Buyer to enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter or any Alternative Financing. In the event that the Debt Commitment Letter is amended, replaced, supplemented or Alternative Financing is obtained, Buyer shall comply with its covenants in this Section 5.11(a) and Section 5.11(b) with respect to the Debt Commitment Letter as so amended, replaced, supplemented or with respect to the Alternative Financing, if applicable, to the same extent that Buyer would have been obligated to comply with respect to the Debt Financing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall be permitted to amend, modify or supplement the Debt Commitment Letter to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, agents or similar entities who have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof on terms substantially similar to those contained in the Debt Commitment Letter.
Financing Commitment For the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the fifth anniversary hereof, Atlas America and Resource Energy agree to provide to the MLP funding of up to an aggregate of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) per annum to finance the cost of expanding the Gathering System or constructing new additions to the Gathering System. Atlas America and Resource Energy, jointly and severally, commit to provide such funding, upon the MLP's written request therefor, by purchasing Common Units at a price equal to the arithmetic average of the closing prices of the Common Units on the American Stock Exchange, or, if the American Stock Exchange is not the principal trading market for such security, on the principal trading market for such security, for the twenty consecutive trading days ending on the trading day prior to the purchase, or, if the fair market value of the Common Units cannot be calculated for such period on any of the foregoing bases, the average fair market value during such period as reasonably determined in good faith by the members of the managing board of the General Partner.
Debt Financing Parent has delivered to the Company true, correct and complete copies of executed commitment letter(s) (as the same may be amended, the “Debt Financing Commitments”), as set forth in Section 4.5 of the Parent Disclosure Letter, pursuant to which the lender parties thereto have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, to provide or cause to be provided the debt amounts set forth therein (the “Debt Financing”). As of the date of this Agreement, except as permitted by this Agreement, none of the Debt Financing Commitments has been amended or modified, and the respective commitments contained in the Debt Financing Commitments have not been withdrawn or rescinded. As of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Financing Commitments are in full force and effect. There are no conditions precedent to the funding of the full amount of the Debt Financing, other than as set forth in the Debt Financing Commitments. The aggregate proceeds contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitments, if obtained, together with the available cash of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub on the Closing Date, will be sufficient for Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger upon the terms contemplated by this Agreement, and to pay all related fees and expenses associated therewith, including payment of all amounts under Article II of this Agreement. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub has any reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition to be satisfied by it contained in the Debt Financing Commitments. Parent has fully paid any and all commitment fees that have been incurred and are due to be paid in connection with the Debt Financing Commitments, and Parent will pay when due all other commitment fees arising under the Debt Financing Commitments as and when they become payable. As of the date of this Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub have no contracts, arrangements or understandings with any Person concerning the contributions to be made to Parent or Merger Sub in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than as set forth in the Debt Financing Commitments, nor any contracts or non-binding arrangements or understandings with any Person concerning the ownership and operation of Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation.
