Bridge Financing The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain no later than October 30, 2004 a commitment letter (the “Bridge Financing Commitment Letter”) expiring no earlier than January 30, 2005, from a reputable financial institution in substantially the same form and substance as Exhibit F attached hereto, to provide financing on terms and conditions no less favorable than those described on Exhibit F attached hereto.
Pre-financing Pre-financing is intended to provide the beneficiary with a float. Where required by the provisions of Article I.4 on pre-financing, the beneficiary shall furnish a financial guarantee from a bank or an approved financial institution established in one of the Member States of the European Union. The guarantor shall stand as first call guarantor and shall not require the Commission to have recourse against the principal debtor (the beneficiary). The financial guarantee shall remain in force until final payments by the Commission match the proportion of the total grant accounted for by pre-financing. The Commission undertakes to release the guarantee within 30 days following that date.
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.
Financing Commitments Parent has delivered to the Company a true and complete copy as of the date hereof of the executed financing commitment letter, dated September 9, 2015, by and among Parent and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Senior Funding, Inc. and the other financial institutions party thereto from time to time, including all exhibits, schedules, annexes and amendments to such letter in effect on the date hereof (the “Commitment Letter”) and a true and correct copy of any related fee letter (collectively, the “Ancillary Letters”) (provided that percentages and amount of (i) the fees, (ii) the economic provisions of the market flex, (iii) the fee-related provisions of the alternate transaction provisions and (iv) the successful syndication definition in the Ancillary Letters may be redacted). The Commitment Letter is in full force and effect as of the date of this Agreement, and the commitments contained in the Commitment Letter have not been withdrawn, modified, rescinded or terminated or otherwise amended, supplemented or modified in any respect prior to the date of this Agreement.

Assuming the Financing is received as contemplated by the Commitment Letter, the aggregate amount of net proceeds from the Financing, together with cash, cash equivalents and current financial assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries on hand, will be, as of the Closing Date, sufficient to satisfy all of the Parent’s obligations under this Agreement, including the payment of any Subject Indebtedness required to be repaid, redeemed, retired, cancelled, terminated or otherwise satisfied or discharged in connection with the Offer or the Merger and all other costs and expenses required to be paid or satisfied by Parent in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

As of the date of this Agreement, (A) no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach by the Parent and (B) subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Section 5.1 and Annex A hereof, Parent does not have any reason to believe that the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter will not be available to Parent or Merger Sub at the Closing. Parent has fully paid all commitment fees or other fees, if any, required by the Commitment Letter to be paid prior to the date of this Agreement. There are no conditions precedent or other contingencies related to the funding of the full amount of the Financing, other than as expressly set forth in the Commitment Letter.
