Effect of a Change in Control In the event of a Change in Control, Sections 6 through 13 of this Agreement shall become applicable to Executive. These Sections shall continue to remain applicable until the third anniversary of the date upon which the Change in Control occurs. On such third anniversary date, and provided that the employment of Executive has not been terminated on account of a Qualifying Termination (as defined in Section 5 below), this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.
Effect of Change in Control In the event of a Change in Control, except to the extent that the Committee determines to cash out the Option in accordance with Section 13.1(c) of the Plan, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or other business entity or parent thereof, as the case may be (the “Acquiror”), may, without the consent of the Participant, assume or continue in full force and effect the Company’s rights and obligations under all or any portion of the Option or substitute for all or any portion of the Option a substantially equivalent option for the Acquiror’s stock. For purposes of this Section, the Option or any portion thereof shall be deemed assumed if, following the Change in Control, the Option confers the right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option Agreement, for each share of Stock subject to such portion of the Option immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, other securities or property or a combination thereof) to which a holder of a share of Stock on the effective date of the Change in Control was entitled; provided, however, that if such consideration is not solely common stock of the Acquiror, the Committee may, with the consent of the Acquiror, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option for each share of Stock to consist solely of common stock of the Acquiror equal in Fair Market Value to the per share consideration received by holders of Stock pursuant to the Change in Control. The Option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the time of consummation of the Change in Control to the extent that the Option is neither assumed or continued by the Acquiror in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the time of the Change in Control.
Certification of Funds; Budget and Fiscal Provisions; Termination in the Event of Non-Appropriation This Agreement is subject to the budget and fiscal provisions of the City’s Charter. Charges will accrue only after prior written authorization certified by the Controller, and the amount of City’s obligation hereunder shall not at any time exceed the amount certified for the purpose and period stated in such advance authorization. This Agreement will terminate without penalty, liability or expense of any kind to City at the end of any fiscal year if funds are not appropriated for the next succeeding fiscal year. If funds are appropriated for a portion of the fiscal year, this Agreement will terminate, without penalty, liability or expense of any kind at the end of the term for which funds are appropriated. City has no obligation to make appropriations for this Agreement in lieu of appropriations for new or other agreements. City budget decisions are subject to the discretion of the Mayor and the Board of Supervisors. Contractor’s assumption of risk of possible non-appropriation is part of the consideration for this Agreement. THIS SECTION CONTROLS AGAINST ANY AND ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.
Termination of Obligations to Effect Closing; Effects (a) The obligations of the Company, on the one hand, and the Investors, on the other hand, to effect the Closing shall terminate as follows:
(i) Upon the mutual written consent of the Company and the Investors;
(ii) By the Company if any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Company;
(iii) By an Investor (with respect to itself only) if any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Investor; or
(iv) By either the Company or any Investor (with respect to itself only) if the Closing has not occurred on or prior to the earliest to occur of (i) the effective date of the Merger, (ii) the termination of the Merger Agreement or (iii) December 31, 2004; provided, however, that, except in the case of clause (i) above, the party seeking to terminate its obligation to effect the Closing shall not then be in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents if such breach has resulted in the circumstances giving rise to such party’s seeking to terminate its obligation to effect the Closing.
(b) In the event of termination by the Company or any Investor of its obligations to effect the Closing pursuant to this Section 6.3, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other Investors and the other Investors shall have the right to terminate their obligations to effect the Closing upon written notice to the Company and the other Investors. Nothing in this Section 6.3 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
Effect of Change of Control Notwithstanding the other provisions of Paragraph 9.3, in the event that: (i) the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause in anticipation of, or pursuant to a notice of termination delivered to the Executive within 24 months after, a Change in Control; (ii) the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason pursuant to a notice of termination delivered to the Company in anticipation of, or within 24 months after, a Change in Control; or (iii) the Company fails to renew this Agreement in anticipation of, or within 24 months after, a Change of Control, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Executive under this Agreement or otherwise, except the Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Obligations and the following benefits:
(a) the Company shall pay to the Executive, within 30 days following the Executive’s Separation from Service (as defined below), a lump-sum cash amount equal to: (i) two times the sum of (A) his Salary then in effect and (B) 75% of his then current Salary; plus (ii) a bonus for the then current fiscal year equal to 75% of his Salary (irrespective of whether performance objectives have been achieved); plus (iii) if such notice is given within the first 12 months after the date first set forth above, then, the Salary the Executive should have been paid from the date of termination through the end of such 12 month period, provided, however, that in the event of a termination for Good Reason pursuant to Clause Paragraph 15.1(h)(ii), the annual salary used for computation under this Paragraph 9.4(a) shall be the one in effect prior to the reduction referred to in Paragraph 15.1(h)(ii); and
(b) during the portion, if any, of the 24-month period (unless otherwise limited by COBRA or similar state law) commencing on the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service (as defined below) that the Executive is eligible to elect and elects to continue coverage for himself and his eligible dependents under the Company’s or an affiliate’s group heath plan pursuant to COBRA or similar state law, the Company shall reimburse the Executive on a monthly basis for the difference between the amount the Executive pays to effect and continue such coverage and the employee contribution amount that active senior executive employees of the Company pay for the same or similar coverage. For purposes of this Agreement, a Change of Control shall not be considered to be anticipated unless (a) the sale of the Company is being actively marketed, (b) a letter of intent outlining provisional sale terms and conditions are being negotiated and/or have been offered and/or exchanged, (c) nondisclosure/confidentiality agreements have been proposed to allow further due diligence for a prospective buyer(s) of the Company and/or its assets, and/or (d) a contract for the sale/purchase of the Company and/or its assets is being/has been negotiated or has been executed.

(b) Parent and Merger Sub shall have performed in all material respects all obligations and complied in all material respects with all covenants required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by them prior to the Effective Time.
(c) Parent shall have delivered to the Company a certificate, dated as of the Closing Date and signed by its Chief Executive Officer or another senior officer, certifying to the effect that the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a) and Section 6.2(b) have been satisfied.
Certain Effects of Termination If this Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 6.01, except as set forth in Section 7.03, this Agreement shall become null and void and have no further force or effect, but the parties shall not be released from any liability arising from or in connection with any breach hereof occurring prior to such termination.
Reportable Events Involving the Xxxxx Law Notwithstanding the reporting requirements outlined above, any Reportable Event that involves solely a probable violation of section 1877 of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. §1395nn (the Xxxxx Law) should be submitted by Practitioner to CMS through the self-referral disclosure protocol (SRDP), with a copy to the OIG. If Practitioner identifies a probable violation of the Xxxxx Law and repays the applicable Overpayment directly to the CMS contractor, then Practitioner is not required by this Section III.G to submit the Reportable Event to CMS through the SRDP.
Effect of Termination and Abandonment In the event of termination of this Agreement and the abandonment of the Merger pursuant to this Article VIII, no party to this Agreement shall have any liability or further obligation to any other party hereunder except (a) as set forth in Sections 8.03 and 9.01 and (b) that termination will not relieve a breaching party from liability for any willful breach of this Agreement giving rise to such termination.
