Establishment of Escrow Account Prior to the Issuer initiating the Offering, and prior to the receipt of the first Subscriber funds, Escrow Agent shall establish an account for the Issuer (the “Escrow Account”). All parties agree to maintain the Escrow Account and Escrow Amount (as defined below) in a manner that is compliant with applicable banking and securities regulations. Escrow Agent shall be the sole administrator of the Escrow Account.
Establishment of a Free Trade Area The Parties to this Agreement, consistent with Article XXIV of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (GATT 1994) and Article V of the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), hereby establish a free trade area.
Establishment of Service 6.1 After receiving certification as a local exchange company from the appropriate regulatory agency, <<customer_name>> will provide the appropriate BellSouth service center the necessary documentation to enable BellSouth to establish a master account for <<customer_name>>’s resold services. Such documentation shall include the Application for Master Account, proof of authority to provide telecommunications services, an Operating Company Number ("OCN") assigned by the National Exchange Carriers Association ("NECA") and a tax exemption certificate, if applicable. When necessary deposit requirements are met, as described in Section 6.6 below, BellSouth will begin taking orders for the resale of service. 6.2 Service orders will be in a standard format designated by BellSouth. 6.3 <<customer_name>> shall provide to BellSouth a blanket letter of authorization ("LOA") certifying that <<customer_name>> will have End User authorization prior to viewing the End User's customer service record or switching the End User's service. BellSouth will not require End User confirmation prior to establishing service for <<customer_name>>’s End User customer. <<customer_name>> must, however, be able to demonstrate End User authorization upon request. 6.4 BellSouth will accept a request directly from the End User for conversion of the End User's service from <<customer_name>> to BellSouth or will accept a request from another CLEC for conversion of the End User's service from <<customer_name>> to such other CLEC. Upon completion of the conversion BellSouth will notify <<customer_name>> that such conversion has been completed. 6.5 If BellSouth is informed that an unauthorized change in local service to <<customer_name>> has occurred, BellSouth will reestablish service with the appropriate local service provider and will assess <<customer_name>> as the CLEC initiating the alleged unauthorized change, the unauthorized change charge described in FCC Tariff No. 1, Section 13 or applicable state tariff. Appropriate nonrecurring charges, as set forth in Section A4 of the General Subscriber Service Tariff, will also be assessed to <<customer_name>>. In accordance with FCC Slamming Liability Rules, the relevant governmental agency will determine if an unauthorized change has occurred. Resolution of all relevant issues shall be handled directly with the authorized CLEC and <<customer_name>>. 6.6 BellSouth reserves the right to secure the account with a suitable form of security deposit, unless satisfactory credit has already been established. 6.6.1 Such security deposit shall take the form of cash for cash equivalent, an irrevocable Letter of Credit or other forms of security acceptable to BellSouth. Any such security deposit may be held during the continuance of the service as security for the payment of any and all amounts accruing for the service. 6.6.2 If a security deposit is required, such security deposit shall be made prior to the inauguration of service. 6.6.3 Such security deposit shall be two months' estimated billing. 6.6.4 The fact that a security deposit has been made in no way relieves <<customer_name>> from complying with BellSouth's regulations as to advance payments and the prompt payment of bills on presentation nor does it constitute a waiver or modification of the regular practices of BellSouth providing for the discontinuance of service for non-payment of any sums due BellSouth. 6.6.5 BellSouth reserves the right to increase the security deposit requirements when, in its reasonable judgment, changes in <<customer_name>>'s financial status so warrant and/or gross monthly billing has increased beyond the level initially used to determine the security deposit. 6.6.6 In the event service to <<customer_name>> is terminated due to <<customer_name>>'s default on its account, any security deposits held will be applied to <<customer_name>>'s account. 6.6.7 Interest on a cash or cash equivalent security deposit shall accrue and be paid in accordance with the terms in the appropriate BellSouth tariff.
Establishment of Series Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Managing Member may, at any time and from time to time and in compliance with paragraph (c), cause the Company to establish in writing (each, a Series Designation) one or more series as such term is used under Section 18-215 of the Delaware Act (each a Series). The Series Designation shall relate solely to the Series established thereby and shall not be construed: (i) to affect the terms and conditions of any other Series, or (ii) to designate, fix or determine the rights, powers, authority, privileges, preferences, duties, responsibilities, liabilities and obligations in respect of Interests associated with any other Series, or the Members associated therewith. The terms and conditions for each Series established pursuant to this Section shall be as set forth in this Agreement and the Series Designation, as applicable, for the Series. Upon approval of any Series Designation by the Managing Member, such Series Designation shall be attached to this Agreement as an Exhibit until such time as none of such Interests of such Series remain Outstanding.
Establishment of Fund The Grantor and the Trustee hereby establish a trust fund (the Fund), for the benefit of the Agency. The Grantor and the Trustee intend that no third party have access to the Fund except as herein provided. The Fund is established initially as a standby to receive payments and shall not consist of any property. Payments made by the Grantor pursuant to the Agency’s instructions are transferred to the Trustee and referred to as the Fund, together with all earnings and profits thereon, less any payments or distributions made by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. The Fund shall be held by the Trustee, IN TRUST for the benefit of the Agency, as hereinafter provided. The Trustee shall not be responsible nor shall it undertake any responsibility for the amount or adequacy of, nor any duty to collect from the Grantor, any payments necessary to discharge any liabilities of the Grantor established by the Agency.
Establishment of Escrow Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Buyer will deposit (and the Shareholders consent to the deposit of) (i) the cash portion of the Escrow Deposit with Escrow Agent, and Escrow Agent will deposit such funds in an interest bearing deposit account, to be held in trust by Escrow Agent for the benefit of Buyer and the Shareholders (the “Escrow Account”), and (ii) stock certificates (accompanied by ten (10) sets of appropriate stock powers executed by the Shareholders in blank with signature guaranteed by a national banking institution or New York Stock Exchange member firm) representing an aggregate of 333,333 shares of Buyer Common Stock registered in the name of the Shareholders (the “Escrowed Shares”) in such individual amounts as set forth on Attachment 1 hereto. Upon its receipt of the Escrow Deposit, Escrow Agent shall provide to Buyer and the Shareholders a written receipt therefor. Unless and until the Escrowed Shares are delivered to Buyer as its absolute property pursuant to this Agreement, the Shareholders shall be entitled to vote the Escrowed Shares and to all dividends thereon, which shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent, with all cash dividends being held as part of the Escrow Account and all stock dividends being held as part of the Escrowed Shares. Any common stock or other securities distributed with respect to the Escrowed Shares as a result of a dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent and held as part of the Escrowed Shares. The cash held in the Escrow Account, including any interest or earnings received in respect thereof, and the Escrowed Shares, less amounts of cash and Escrowed Shares distributed from time to time in accordance with Section 5 hereof, shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Escrow Fund.” The Escrow Agent shall execute and deliver to each Shareholder all Proxy Statements, form of proxies or other instruments which it receives in order to give effect to the foregoing voting rights. Escrow Agent agrees to administer the disposition of the Escrow Fund strictly in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. At the Buyer’s option, the Buyer may deposit (and the Shareholders consent to the deposit of) the Earnout Payment with the Escrow Agent (and Escrow Agent will further deposit the cash portion of such deposit in the Escrow Account and the stock portion of such deposit as part of the Escrowed Shares) to be held in trust by the Escrow Agent for the benefit of Buyer and the Shareholders, at any time (1) it maintains an obligation under the Merger Agreement to pay such Earnout Payment to the Shareholders, (2) the Buyer has previously made an Escrow Claim (as defined in Section 5(a)) prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in Section 7.3(a) of the Merger Agreement) and (3) the Claimed Amount (as hereinafter defined) of such claims is greater than the amount or value of the remaining Escrow Fund. To the extent the Claimed Amount equals or exceeds the amount of the Earnout Payment, the Buyer shall be permitted to deposit the entire Earnout Payment with the Escrow Agent. If, however, the Claimed Amount is less than the Earnout Payment, the Buyer shall be permitted to deposit the amount of the Earnout Payment equal to the Claimed Amount with the Escrow Agent and the difference shall be paid directly by the Buyer to the Shareholders as provided in the Merger Agreement. Buyer agrees to deliver an Escrow Claim (as hereinafter defined) to the Shareholders and Escrow Agent at the same time it delivers the Earnout Payment (or any portion thereof) to the Escrow Agent hereunder, to the extent that an Escrow Claim has not previously been submitted in connection therewith. Each such Escrow Claim shall contain all of the same information specified in Section 5(a) below. Upon its receipt of the Earnout Payment (or any portion thereof), Escrow Agent shall provide to Buyer and the Shareholders a written receipt therefor. Once deposited by the Escrow Agent in the Escrow Account and/or the Escrowed Shares, as the case may be, the Earnout Payment (or any portion thereof) shall be, and shall be treated as part of, the Escrow Fund for all purposes hereunder and this Agreement shall apply in the same manner and to the same extent as if the Earnout Payment were part of the original Escrow Deposit.
PERMANENT ESTABLISHMENT 1. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "permanent establishment" means a fixed place of business through which the business of an enterprise is wholly or partly carried on. 2. The term "permanent establishment" includes especially: (a) a place of management; (b) a branch; (c) an office; (d) a factory; (e) a workshop, and (f) a mine, an oil or gas well, a quarry or any other place of extraction of natural resources. 3. The term "permanent establishment" also includes: (a) a building site, a construction, installation or assembly project, or supervisory activities in connection therewith, but only where such site, project or activities last more than 12 months; (b) the furnishing of services, including consultancy services, by an enterprise of a Contracting State through employees or other personnel in the other Contracting State for a period or periods aggregating more than 120 days within any twelve-month period. 4. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Article, the term "permanent establishment" shall be deemed not to include: (a) the use of facilities solely for the purpose of storage, display or delivery of goods or merchandise belonging to the enterprise; (b) the maintenance of a stock of goods or merchandise belonging to the enterprise solely for the purpose of storage, display or delivery; (c) the maintenance of a stock of goods or merchandise belonging to the enterprise solely for the purpose of processing by another enterprise; (d) the maintenance of a fixed place of business solely for the purpose of purchasing goods or merchandise or of collecting information, for the enterprise; (e) the maintenance of a fixed place of business solely for the purpose of carrying on, for the enterprise, any other activity of a preparatory or auxiliary character; (f) the maintenance of a fixed place of business solely for any combination of activities mentioned in sub-paragraphs (a) to (e), provided that the overall activity of the fixed place of business resulting from this combination is of a preparatory or auxiliary character. 5. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 1 and 2, where a person -- other than an agent of an independent status to whom paragraph 6 applies -- is acting on behalf of an enterprise and has, and habitually exercises, in a Contracting State an authority to conclude contracts in the name of the enterprise, that enterprise shall be deemed to have a permanent establishment in that State in respect of any activities which that person undertakes for the enterprise, unless the activities of such person are limited to those mentioned in paragraph 4 which, if exercised through a fixed place of business, would not make this fixed place of business a permanent establishment under the provisions of that paragraph. 6. An enterprise shall not be deemed to have a permanent establishment in a Contracting State merely because it carries on business in that State through a broker, general commission agent or any other agent of an independent status, provided that such persons are acting in the ordinary course of their business. 7. The fact that a company which is a resident of a Contracting State controls or is controlled by a company which is a resident of the other Contracting State, or which carries on business in that other State (whether through a permanent establishment or otherwise), shall not of itself constitute either company a permanent establishment of the other.
