Inflation Indices Sample Clauses

Inflation Indices. The Contractor Service Fees for Committed County Waste and City Committed Waste shall be increased annually on each Adjustment Date, by ninety percent (90%) of the twelve month average increase, if any, in the CPI, provided, however that, such adjustment shall not exceed three and one-half percent (3.5%) in any one year (“Maximum CPI Adjustment”). In the event, there is a decrease in the CPI, the Contractor Service Fees shall not be reduced from their then current amounts, however, such decrease shall be credited at the next Adjustment Date where there is an increase in CPI. Likewise, if CPI exceeds three and one-half percent (3.5%) in any one year period, the disallowed excess shall be carried over to the next Adjustment Date or Dates where the CPI adjustment is less than 3.5% up to a Maximum CPI Adjustment. The first Adjustment Date shall be the one year anniversary of the Effective Date, and each subsequent anniversary thereof shall be an Adjustment Date. The CPI adjustment factor for the first Adjustment Date shall be determined by using the percentage increase in the CPI for the most recent twelve month period for which data is available but which data is also available no later than 60 days before the Adjustment Date. For subsequent Adjustment Dates, the CPI data for the subsequent twelve month period shall be used if the data for such period is available no later than 60 days before the before the Adjustment Date; if not, data for the most recent twelve month period shall be used. Contractor’s Service Fees as of the Effective Date for Committed County Waste and City Committed Waste shall therefore be adjusted effective as of the Adjustment Date by the percentage which is equal to ninety percent (90%) of the increase in the CPI. Contractor shall provide County and Committed Cities with 30 days’ advance written notice of its intent to adjust the Contractor Service Fees for Committed County Waste and Committed City Waste for this purpose. If the indices used to compute the annual inflationary adjustment are discontinued or revised by the United States Department of Labor during the Committed Waste Period, such other government index or computation with which it is replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would be obtained if the indices had not been discontinued or revised. The County shall approve any replacement indices in its reasonable discretion.

For purposes of the foregoing determinations, the current market value of any security listed and traded or quoted on a securities exchange shall be the weighted average of the daily trading prices of such security during a period of not less than 20 consecutive trading days ending not more than three trading days before the date of determination on the principal securities exchange on which such securities are listed and traded or quoted; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the Board of Directors of ExchangeCo the public distribution or trading activity of such securities during such period does not create a market which reflects the fair market value of such securities, then the current market value thereof shall be determined by the Board of Directors of ExchangeCo, in good faith and in its sole discretion, and provided further that any such determination by the Board of Directors of ExchangeCo shall be conclusive and binding on Parent. (e) ExchangeCo agrees that, to the extent required, upon due notice from Parent, ExchangeCo will use its best efforts to take or cause to be taken such steps as may be necessary for the purposes of ensuring that appropriate dividends are paid or other distributions are made by ExchangeCo, or subdivisions, redivisions or changes are made to the Exchangeable Shares, in order to implement the required economic equivalent with respect to the Parent Common Stock and Exchangeable Shares as provided for in this Section 2.7.
