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.
CONDITIONS OF SETTLEMENT, EFFECT OF DISAPPROVAL, CANCELLATION OR TERMINATION 7.1 The Effective Date of the Stipulation shall be conditioned on the occurrence of all of the following events:
(a) the Court has entered the Preliminary Approval Order, as required by ¶3.1 hereof, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto;
(b) the Settlement Amount has been deposited into the XXXX;
(c) the Court has entered the Judgment, or a judgment substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto;
(d) Lexmark has not exercised its option to terminate the Stipulation pursuant to ¶7.3 hereof; and
(e) the Judgment has become Final, as defined in ¶1.12 hereof.
7.2 Upon the Effective Date, any and all remaining interest or right of the Defendants or the Defendants’ insurers in or to the Settlement Fund, if any, shall be absolutely and forever extinguished and the releases herein shall be effective. If the conditions specified in ¶7.1 hereof are not met, then the Stipulation shall be canceled and terminated subject to ¶7.4 hereof unless Lead Counsel and Defendants’ Counsel mutually agree in writing to proceed with the Stipulation.
7.3 Only Lexmark possesses the option to terminate the Settlement in the event that valid requests for exclusion from the Class exceed the criteria set forth in the Supplemental Agreement, executed between Lead Plaintiff and Lexmark through their respective counsel concurrently with this Agreement. The terms of the Supplemental Agreement shall not be disclosed in any other manner other than the statements herein and in the Notice, or as otherwise provided in the Supplemental Agreement unless and until the Court otherwise directs or a dispute arises between Lead Plaintiff and Defendants concerning its interpretation or application. If submission of the Supplemental Agreement to the Court is required for resolution of a dispute or is otherwise ordered by the Court, the parties will undertake to have the Court review the Supplemental Agreement in camera without filing it on the docket. If the Court requires that the Supplemental Agreement be filed, the parties shall request that it be filed under seal or with the percentage redacted.
7.4 Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, in the event the Stipulation is not approved or this Stipulation is terminated, canceled, or the Effective Date otherwise fails to occur, within ten (10) business days after written notification of such event is sent by Defendants’ Counsel or Lead Counsel to the Escrow Agent, the Settlement Fund (including accrued interest), less Taxes, Tax Expenses, and Notice and Administration Expenses which have either been disbursed pursuant to ¶¶2.1 and 2.8 hereof, or are chargeable to the Settlement Fund pursuant to ¶¶2.1 and 2.8 hereof, shall be refunded by the Escrow Agent pursuant to written instructions from Defendants’ Counsel. The Escrow Agent or its designee shall apply for any tax refund owed on the Settlement Amount and pay the proceeds, after deduction of any fees or expenses incurred in connection with such application(s) for refund, pursuant to written instructions from Defendants’ Counsel.
7.5 In the event that the Stipulation is not approved by the Court or the Settlement set forth in the Stipulation is terminated or fails to become effective in accordance with its terms, the Settling Parties shall be restored to their respective positions in the Litigation as of January 28, 2020. In such event, the terms and provisions of the Stipulation, with the exception of ¶¶1.1–1.36, 2.6–2.9, 6.3–6.5, 7.4–7.6, and 9.5–9.6 hereof, shall have no further force and effect with respect to the Settling Parties and shall not be used in this Litigation or in any other proceeding for any purpose, and any judgment or order entered by the Court in accordance with the terms of the Stipulation shall be treated as vacated, nunc pro tunc. No order of the Court or modification or reversal on appeal of any order of the Court concerning the Plan of Allocation or the amount of any attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses, and interest awarded by the Court to any of Plaintiffs’ Counsel or expenses to the Lead Plaintiff shall operate to terminate or cancel this Stipulation or constitute grounds for cancellation or termination of the Stipulation.
7.6 If the Effective Date does not occur, or if the Stipulation is terminated pursuant to its terms, neither Lead Plaintiff nor any of its counsel shall have any obligation to repay any amounts disbursed pursuant to ¶¶2.1 or 2.8. In addition, any expenses already incurred pursuant to ¶¶2.1 or 2.8 hereof at the time of such termination or cancellation but which have not been paid, shall be paid by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Stipulation prior to the balance being refunded in accordance with ¶¶2.9 and 7.4 hereof.
7.7 Defendants warrant and represent that they are not “insolvent” within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. § 101(32) as of the time the Stipulation is executed and will not be as of the time the payments of the Settlement Amount are actually transferred or made as reflected in the Stipulation. This representation is made by Defendants and not by Defendants’ Counsel. In the event of a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction, not subject to any further proceedings, determining the transfer of the Settlement Fund, or any portion thereof, by or on behalf of Defendants to be a voidable preference, voidable transfer, fraudulent transfer, or similar transaction under Title 11 of the United States Code (Bankruptcy), or applicable state law, and any portion thereof is required to be refunded and such amount is not promptly deposited in the Settlement Fund by or on behalf of any Defendants, then, at the election of Lead Plaintiff the Settlement may be terminated and the Judgment entered in favor of Defendants pursuant to the Settlement shall be null and void. Alternatively, at the election of Lead Plaintiff, the Settling Parties shall jointly move the Court to vacate and set aside the release given and the Judgment entered in favor of the Defendants and that the Defendants and Lead Plaintiff and the Members of the Class shall be restored to their litigation positions as of January 28, 2020 and the Settlement Fund shall be promptly returned.
TERM, TERMINATION, AND MODIFICATION OF RIGHTS 13.1 This Agreement is effective when signed by all parties, unless the provisions of Paragraph 14.16 are not fulfilled, and shall extend to the expiration of the last to expire of the Licensed Patent Rights unless sooner terminated as provided in this Article 13.
13.2 In the event that the Licensee is in default in the performance of any material obligations under this Agreement, including but not limited to the obligations listed in Paragraph 13.5, and if the default has not been remedied within ninety (90) days after the date of notice in writing of the default, the IC may terminate this Agreement by written notice and pursue outstanding royalties owed through procedures provided by the Federal Debt Collection Act.
13.3 In the event that the Licensee becomes insolvent, files a petition in bankruptcy, has such a petition filed against it, determines to file a petition in bankruptcy, or receives notice of a third party's intention to file an involuntary petition in bankruptcy, the Licensee shall immediately notify the IC in writing.

13.5 The IC shall specifically have the right to terminate or modify, at its option, this Agreement, if the IC determines that the Licensee:
(a) is not executing the Commercial Development Plan submitted with its request for a license and the Licensee cannot otherwise demonstrate to the IC’s satisfaction that the Licensee has taken, or can be expected to take within a reasonable time, effective steps to achieve the Practical Application of the Licensed Products or the Licensed Processes;
(b) has not achieved the Benchmarks as may be modified under Paragraph 9.2;

If the Licensee fails to alleviate the IC’s concerns as to the items referenced in 13.5(a)-13.5(g) or fails to initiate corrective action to the IC’s satisfaction, the IC may terminate this Agreement.
13.7 When the public health and safety so require, and after written notice to the Licensee providing the Licensee a sixty (60) day opportunity to respond, the IC shall have the right to require the Licensee to grant sublicenses to responsible applicants, on reasonable terms, in any Licensed Fields of Use under the Licensed Patent Rights, unless the Licensee can reasonably demonstrate that the granting of the sublicense would not materially increase the availability to the public of the subject matter of the Licensed Patent Rights. The IC shall not require the granting of a sublicense unless the responsible applicant has first negotiated in good faith with the Licensee.
13.8 The IC reserves the right according to 35 U.S.C. §209(d)(3) to terminate or modify this Agreement if it is determined that this action is necessary to meet the requirements for public use specified by federal regulations issued after the date of the license and these requirements are not reasonably satisfied by the Licensee.
13.9 Within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of the IC’s unilateral decision to modify or terminate this Agreement, the Licensee may, consistent with the provisions of 37 C.F.R. §404.11, appeal the decision by written submission to the designated IC official or designee. The decision of the designated IC official or designee shall be the final agency decision. The Licensee may thereafter exercise any and all administrative or judicial remedies that may be accessible.
13.10 Within ninety (90) days of expiration or termination of this Agreement under this Article 13, a final report shall be submitted by the Licensee. Any royalty payments, including those incurred but not yet paid (such as the full minimum annual royalty), and those related to patent expenses, due to the IC shall become immediately due and payable upon termination or expiration.

The Licensee may not be granted additional IC licenses if the final reporting requirement is not fulfilled.

TERM, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT This Agreement with respect to the Fund shall continue in effect until the expiration date set forth on Schedule A (the “Expiration Date”). With regard to the Operating Expense Limits, the Trust’s Board of Trustees and the Adviser may terminate or modify this Agreement prior to the Expiration Date only by mutual written consent. This Agreement shall terminate automatically upon the termination of the Advisory Agreement; provided, however, that the obligation of the Trust to reimburse the Adviser with respect to a Fund shall survive the termination of this Agreement unless the Trust and the Adviser agree otherwise.
Rescission and Early Termination of Contract The Illinois Commerce Commission is considering rescission and early termination of contract regulations that may afford you opportunities within certain parameters to rescind or terminate your contract without incurring an early termination fee. In addition, your DSP’s tariff (which is on file with the Illinois Commerce Commission) may contain provisions regarding penalty-free rescission periods. Homefield Energy will comply with all applicable provisions and regulations concerning rescission and early termination of contract. Shortly after your election to take service from Homefield Energy, your DSP should provide you an enrollment notice informing you of any rescission rights you may have and the last day for making a request to rescind. If you rescind this Agreement within the timeframe specified by your DSP, your enrollment with Homefield Energy will be cancelled without penalty to you. Upon rescission in accordance with applicable law, this Agreement will be considered cancelled and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder to each other. If you do not rescind this Agreement, you still may terminate the Agreement without any termination fee or penalty within 10 business days after the date of the first bill issued to you under this Agreement by calling Homefield Energy toll-free at 000-000-0000 to let Homefield Energy know to terminate this Agreement. You may terminate a residential electric supply agreement in this manner only one time in any 12 month period. Upon termination, you will remain responsible for all obligations, including payment for Retail Power and related costs and charges, incurred under this Agreement prior to the effective date of termination, including any applicable termination fee.
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.
Effect of Death, Resignation, etc of a Trustee. The death, declination, resignation, retirement, removal, or incapacity of one or more Trustees, or all of them, shall not operate to annul the Trust or to revoke any existing agency created pursuant to the terms of this Declaration of Trust. Whenever a vacancy in the Board of Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled as provided in Article IV, Section 1, the Trustees in office, regardless of their number, shall have all the powers granted to the Trustees and shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the Trustees by this Declaration of Trust.

f. Wherever referred to in this Agreement, the vote or approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities or shares of a Fund shall mean the lesser of (i) the vote of 67% or more of the voting securities of such Fund present at a regular or special meeting of shareholders duly called, if more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy, or (ii) the vote of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund.
