Economic Incentives. In consideration of Owner's development of the Property in conformity with the terms of this Agreement, the City shall provide the following economic incentives to Owner and Operator for the Development:
Economic Incentives. Buyer may pursue any local, state or federal economic incentives available. No such incentives are committed by County or Seller in this Agreement; however, County and Seller shall cooperate with Buyer to obtain any such grants or other incentives.
Economic Incentives. Economic incentives consist of tax increment revenues paid to the Trustee and used by the Trustee to pay debt service on the Bonds and as otherwise provided for in Exhibits C-3, C-4 and I. The City will also support the Project, with letters of support from City staff or ELBRA or DDA or with the appearance of City staff before appropriate agencies of the State as the City deems appropriate, in support of both BRA Plan #24 approval and a Community Revitalization Program Grant or other assistance from the MSF, in an effort to reimburse the Developer for public infrastructure costs and other parts of the Project and make the private portion of the Project economically feasible by determining and filling the gap between the cost of construction and the fair market value of the Project upon completion.
Economic Incentives. It benefits the technology supplier (here IBM) to use blockchain in this scenario, as it may provide related consulting services. Fur- thermore, the successful implementation of its technology serves as a platform for future scenarios. In such scenarios both the technology as well as consultancy may be provided. We therefore argue that in this scenario blockchain adoption is also driven by company principles.
Economic Incentives. Several companies have a direct economic interest in the success of Bitcoin. As miners nowadays need special dedicated hardware, hard- ware vendors supplying this hardware have a clear economic interest in the success of Bitcoin. Furthermore, many companies, including established firms and young startups [35], offer blockchain consultancy services, some of which are related to Bitcoin. These companies also have a strong economic incentive, namely to sell consulting services. Finally, given the broad global attention to blockchain technology, there is the fear of missing out (FOMO) [34]. This may lead to that some parties buy bitcoins, as well as other cryptocurrencies, to mitigate the risk of having missed the bandwagon when it turns out the technology becomes a success. For example, public media has extensively reported on the rise of the value of Bitcoin. This triggered other, new participants to also invest in Bitcoin, as these participants also hope for a profitable investment in Bitcoin. Indeed, uninformed participants consider Bitcoin as an alternative investment [13]. However, as Bitcoin is not backed by any government nor gold, these investments are fueled largely by speculation.
Economic Incentives. The uPort app points to a perceived single source of truth, the blockchain. When more participants would adopt the uPort app, uPort would gain more exposure, recognition, and funding. Still, the need for blockchain tech- nology can be questioned. Ethereum, despite its novel design, currently contains several issues such as scalability [4], energy consumption [23], and lack of decen- tralization [12]. Instead, an independent group of trusted third parties could be used to manage the unique identifier of the smart contract. However, blockchain technology is also a marketing tool to arouse interest in a product [3] which in this scenario is the identity solution, or to arouse interest in an organization [1, 2].
Economic Incentives. Inverse block rate structures, like those used in the IID Interim Water Supply Policy, could continue to be used to provide an economic incentive to conserve water, and to provide revenue to invest in groundwater banking/storage or other capital projects to increase or extend the Colorado River supply (recycling, desalination). Such structures and projects could also be used to fund new projects and programs to mitigate impacts to historic users when apportioning water or managing shortage under the existing or expanded fallowing program (crop idling). Economic evaluations would help define the marginal cost of water and the least cost mix of investments in capital projects, demand management/conservation, apportioning water and mitigating existing users. This would help identify the cost of providing water to the Imperial region, determine ability and willingness to pay, and set investment priorities. If solutions are not affordable based on ability and willingness to pay, the Imperial Region could consider finding willing partners to invest in local solutions using a model similar to the QSA.
Economic Incentives. Collectively, the right, title and interest of Borrower (or any Affiliate of Borrower) in the Economic Incentive Agreements, but only to the extent assignable, and all of Borrower's rights (or such Affiliate's rights) to receive payments, receipts, refunds, abatements, revenues, interest, municipal personnel or services or other rights or benefits whatsoever under any of the Economic Incentive Agreements, including, without limitation, all rights and interests in and to the proceeds from the Tax Increment Financing.
Economic Incentives. To promote the adoption of quieter and more sustainable aircraft, a tiered landing fee structure will be implemented. To the extent it is allowed by law, eVTOL landings will be priced below helicopter tour and transport landings. Thus, aircraft operators will be able to achieve lower infrastructure costs for eVTOLs vs helicopters.
Economic Incentives. As a primary inducement for Hometown’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, and in consideration of Hometown’s performance of the obligations set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Town shall provide to Hometown the following economic incentives:
