The Calculation Agent shall notify Counterparty prior to making any such adjustment to the Forward Price. Extraordinary Events: In lieu of the applicable provisions contained in Article 12 of the Equity Definitions, the consequences of any Extraordinary Event (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Merger Event, Tender Offer, Nationalization, Insolvency, Delisting, or Change In Law) shall be as specified below under the headings “Acceleration Events” and “Termination Settlement” in Paragraphs 7(f) and 7(g), respectively. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Equity Definitions, no Additional Disruption Event will be applicable except to the extent expressly referenced in Paragraph 7(f)(iv) below. The definition of “Tender Offer” in Section 12.1(d) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by replacing “10%” with “20%.” Dividends: No adjustment shall be made if, on any day occurring after the Trade Date, Counterparty declares a distribution, issue or dividend to existing holders of the Shares of (i) any cash dividend (other than an Extraordinary Dividend) to the extent all cash dividends having an ex-dividend date during the period from and including any Forward Price Reduction Date (with the Trade Date being a Forward Price Reduction Date for purposes of this clause (i) only) to but excluding the next subsequent Forward Price Reduction Date differs from, on a per Share basis, the Forward Price Reduction Amount set forth opposite the first date of any such period on Schedule I, (ii) share capital or securities of another issuer acquired or owned (directly or indirectly) by Counterparty as a result of a spin-off or other similar transaction or (iii) any other type of securities (other than Shares), rights or warrants or other assets, for payment (cash or other consideration) at less than the prevailing market price as determined by Dealer. Non-Reliance: Applicable Agreements and Acknowledgments: Regarding Hedging Activities: Applicable Additional Acknowledgments: Applicable Hedging Party: Dealer Transfer: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Agreement, Dealer may assign, transfer and set over all rights, title and interest, powers, obligations, privileges and remedies of Dealer under the Transaction, in whole or in part, to (A) a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dealer, whose obligations hereunder are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Dealer, or (B) any other wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Dealer with a long-term issuer rating equal to or better than the credit rating of Dealer at the time of transfer after obtaining Counterparty’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that, (i) at the time of such assignment or transfer, Counterparty would not, as a result of such assignment or transfer, designation or delegation, reasonably be expected at any time (A) to be required to pay (including a payment in kind) to Dealer or such transferee or assignee or designee an amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax greater than the amount Counterparty would have been required to pay to Dealer in the absence of such assignment, transfer, designation or delegation, or (B) to receive a payment (including a payment in kind) after such assignment or transfer that is less than the amount Counterparty would have received if the payment were made immediately prior to such assignment or transfer, (ii) prior to such assignment or transfer, Dealer shall have caused the assignee, transferee, or designee to make such Payee Tax Representations and to provide such tax documentation as may be reasonably requested by Counterparty to permit Counterparty to determine that the transfer complies with the requirements of clause (i) in this Paragraph, and (iii) at all times, Dealer or any transferee or assignee or other recipient of rights, title and interest, powers, obligations, privileges and remedies shall be eligible to provide a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8ECI, or any successor thereto, with respect to any payments or deliveries under the Agreement.
Additional Adjustments In the event that there is any change in the outstanding Shares for which an adjustment is not provided by Sections 6.1. or 6.2. of this Agreement, and the Options are then unexercised, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, require an adjustment in the number or kind of Shares or securities subject to the Options and the Option Price and such adjustment shall be binding and effective for all purposes hereof.
Annual Adjustment At the end of each Fiscal Year and following receipt by Manager of the annual accounting referred to in Article 10, an adjustment will be made to such annual account, if necessary and if available, so that the appropriate amount shall have been deposited in the Reserve.
Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment, together with interest calculated as set forth below, shall (A) be due (x) within five (5) Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within five (5) Business Days of the resolution described in clause (v) above; and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account(s) as is directed by Buyer or Sellers, as the case may be.
Closing Adjustment (a) The Company shall deliver to Buyer no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date a statement that sets forth the Company’s good faith estimate of (i) the balance sheet of the Company as of the Measurement Time (the “Estimated Balance Sheet”), which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles; (ii) the Closing Date Net Working Capital and, based thereon, the Adjustment Amount; (iii) the Company Cash and, based thereon, the amount of the Company Cash Deficiency (if any), (iv) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, (v) the Company Transaction Expenses and, based thereon, (vi) the Purchase Price (the “Estimated Purchase Price”) and the Cash Consideration (the “Estimated Cash Consideration”), together with reasonably detailed calculations demonstrating each component thereof and such documentation and access to the Company’s Books and Records as is reasonably requested by Buyer to permit Buyer to review the calculation of amounts set forth therein. Buyer shall have the ability to review and provide comments to (i) – (vi) above and the Company shall consider in good faith Buyer’s comments. (b) No later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Members’ Representative a statement that sets forth Buyer’s calculation of (i) the balance sheet of the Company as of the Measurement Time (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, (ii) the Closing Date Net Working Capital and, based thereon, the Adjustment Amount, (iii) the Company Cash and, based thereon, the amount of the Company Cash Deficiency (if any), (iv) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, (v) the Company Transaction Expenses and, based thereon, (vi) the Purchase Price and the Cash Consideration, together with reasonably detailed supporting calculations demonstrating each component thereof (the “Closing Date Statement”). (c) The Members’ Representative shall have thirty (30) days after delivery of the Closing Date Statement in which to notify Buyer in writing (such notice, a “Closing Date Dispute Notice”) of any discrepancy in, or disagreement with, the items reflected on the Closing Date Statement (and specifying the amount of each item in dispute and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for each such discrepancy or disagreement), and upon agreement by Buyer regarding the adjustment requested by the Members’ Representative, an appropriate adjustment shall be made thereto. If the Members’ Representative does not deliver a Closing Date Dispute Notice to Buyer during such thirty (30)-day period, the Closing Date Statement shall be deemed to be accepted in the form presented to the Members’ Representative. If the Members’ Representative timely delivers a Closing Date Dispute Notice and Buyer and the Members’ Representative do not agree, within thirty (30) days after timely delivery of the Closing Date Dispute Notice, to resolve any discrepancy or disagreement therein, either the Members’ Representative or Buyer may submit the discrepancy or disagreement for review and final determination by the Independent Accounting Firm, it being understood that in making such determination, the Independent Accounting Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator. The review by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited solely to the discrepancies and disagreements set forth in the Closing Date Dispute Notice and a single written submission to the Independent Accounting Firm by each of Buyer and the Members’ Representative with respect to such discrepancies and disagreements (which shall also be provided to the other party). The resolution of such discrepancies and disagreements and the determination of the Closing Date Net Working Capital and the resulting Adjustment Amount, the Company Cash and the resulting Company Cash Deficiency (if any), the Closing Indebtedness Amount, and the Company Transaction Expenses by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be (i) in writing, (ii) made in accordance with the Accounting Principles, definitions and relevant provisions of this Agreement, (iii) with respect to any specific discrepancy or disagreement, no greater than the higher amount calculated by Buyer or the Members’ Representative, as the case may be, and no lower than the lower amount calculated by Buyer or the Members’ Representative as the case may be, (iv) made as promptly as practicable after the submission of such discrepancies and disagreements to the Independent Accounting Firm (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the date of submission), and (v) final and binding upon, and non-appealable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns for all purposes hereof, and not subject to collateral attack for any reason absent manifest error or fraud. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be allocated to and borne by Buyer and the Members (in accordance with their respective Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions, which may be paid out of the Representative Expense Fund to the extent thereof) based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm. For example, should the aggregate value of the items in dispute equal $1,000 and the Independent Accounting Firm awards $600 in favor of the Members’ Representative’s position and $400 in favor of Buyer, then sixty percent (60%) of the costs of its review would be borne by Buyer and forty percent (40%) of such costs would be borne by the Members’ Representative (on behalf of the Members). Within five (5) Business Days of the resolution of all matters set forth in the Closing Date Dispute Notice, by mutual agreement of Buyer and the Members’ Representative or by the Independent Accounting Firm, Buyer shall prepare a revised version of the Closing Date Statement including an updated Purchase Price and Cash Consideration (the “Final Purchase Price”) reflecting such resolution and shall deliver copies thereof to the Members’ Representative, and such revised version (and all amounts set forth therein) shall be considered final and binding on the parties (the “Final Closing Date Statement”). (d) If the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, Buyer shall pay to the Payment Agent for distribution to the Members on behalf of TopCo in connection with the Redemption the entire amount of such difference in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and Buyer and the Members’ Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release to the Payment Agent the entire balance of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund, in each case for further distribution to the Members in accordance with the applicable Consideration Spreadsheet and such Members’ Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions. If the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price, the Members’ Representative (on behalf of each Member) and Buyer shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the entire amount of such difference to Buyer out of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund, with any remaining balance of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund to be paid by the Escrow Agent to the Payment Agent (for further distribution to the Members in accordance with the applicable Consideration Spreadsheet and such Members’ Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions); provided, however, that if the amount payable to Buyer under this Section 1.9(d) exceeds the Purchase Price Escrow Fund (a “Purchase Price Excess”), Buyer shall have the right to require the Members, severally and not jointly, in each case based on their then current respective Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions to pay to Buyer the Purchase Price Excess in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If the Final Purchase Price is equal to the Estimated Purchase Price, there shall not be any adjustment. (e) Any payments made pursuant to Section 1.9 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
Payment and Year-End Adjustment Amounts accrued pursuant to this Agreement shall be payable to the Adviser as of the last day of each month. If necessary, on or before the last day of the first month of each fiscal year, an adjustment payment shall be made by the appropriate party in order that the actual Fund Operating Expenses of a Fund for the prior fiscal year (including any reimbursement payments hereunder with respect to such fiscal year) do not exceed the Maximum Annual Operating Expense Limit.
Settlement Statement A settlement statement setting forth the amounts paid by or on behalf of and/or credited to each of Purchaser and Seller pursuant to this Agreement;
Final Settlement Statement (a) As soon as practical and, in any event, no later than ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing Date, Sellers shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) setting forth Sellers’ calculation of the adjustments to the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2.04. The Final Settlement Statement shall be prepared in accordance with this Agreement and on a basis consistent with the preparation of the Closing Statement as described in Section 2.04(d), and shall set forth Sellers’ calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price. (b) Following the delivery of the Final Settlement Statement, Sellers shall afford Buyer the opportunity to examine the Final Settlement Statement and Sellers’ calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price, and such supporting schedules and analyses as are reasonably necessary and appropriate in connection with such review. Sellers shall cooperate with Buyer in such examination, including responding to questions asked by Buyer, and Sellers shall make available to Buyer any records under Sellers’ control that are requested by Buyer in connection with such review. (c) If, within thirty (30) calendar days following delivery of the Final Settlement Statement to Buyer, Buyer has not delivered to Sellers written notice (the “Objection Notice”) of Buyer’s objections to the Final Settlement Statement or Sellers’ calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price (which Objection Notice in order to be valid must contain a statement describing in reasonable detail the items objected to, the basis of such objections and Buyer’s calculation of the amount(s) for the items objected to that Buyer asserts should be used for purposes of the Final Settlement Statement), then the Adjusted Purchase Price as set forth in such Final Settlement Statement shall be deemed final and conclusive. In addition, any of Sellers’ calculations of the Adjusted Purchase Price as set forth in the Final Settlement Statement which are not objected to in the Objection Notice shall be deemed final and conclusive. (d) If Buyer delivers the Objection Notice satisfying Section 2.06(c) above, within such thirty (30)-day period, then Sellers and Buyer shall endeavor in good faith to resolve the objections of Buyer set forth in the Objection Notice for a period not to exceed fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of delivery of the Objection Notice. If at the end of such fifteen (15)-day period there are any objections that remain in dispute, then either Buyer or Sellers may require by written notice to the other that the remaining objections in dispute be submitted for resolution to the Dallas, Texas office of Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP or to such other independent accounting firm as may be selected jointly by Buyer and Sellers within the ten (10) calendar days following a written request by Buyer or Sellers (Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP or such jointly selected accounting firm, the “Referee”). The Referee’s engagement shall be limited to the resolution of disputed amounts set forth in the Final Settlement Statement that have been identified by Buyer in the Objection Notice, which resolution shall be in accordance with this Agreement and no other matter relating to the Final Settlement Statement shall be subject to determination by the Referee except to the extent affected by resolution of the disputed amounts. In connection with the engagement of the Referee, each of Buyer and Sellers shall execute any engagement, indemnity and other agreement as the Referee shall require as a condition to such engagement. If Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP is unable or unwilling to serve as the Referee and Buyer and Sellers are unable to agree upon the designation of a Person as substitute arbitrator, then Buyer or Sellers, or either of them, may in writing request the Bankruptcy Court to appoint the substitute referee; provided that such Person so appointed shall be a national or regional accounting firm with no prior material relationships with Buyer or Sellers or their respective Affiliates and shall have experience in auditing companies engaged in oil and gas wellsite service activities. (e) The Referee shall determine such items of the calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price as are disputed within thirty (30) calendar days after the objections that remain in dispute are submitted to it. (f) If any disputed items are submitted to the Referee for resolution, (i) each of Buyer and Sellers shall furnish to the Referee such workpapers and other documents and information relating to such disputed items as the Referee may request and are available to that Party or its Affiliates (or its independent public accountants) and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Referee any materials relating to the determination of the matters in dispute and to discuss such determination with the Referee prior to any written notice of determination hereunder being delivered by the Referee; (ii) the Referee shall not assign a value to such objection that is greater than the greatest value for such objection claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such objection claimed by either Party; (iii) the determination by the Referee of items of the calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price, as applicable, as set forth in a written notice delivered to Sellers and Buyer by the Referee, shall be made in accordance with this Agreement and shall be binding and conclusive on the Parties and shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and unappealable (absent manifest error or fraud) and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereof; and (iv) the fees and expenses of the Referee (the “Audit Fees”) shall be paid by and apportioned between Buyer and Sellers based on the aggregate dollar amount in dispute and the relative recovery as determined by the Referee or Sellers and Buyer, respectively (such that, by way of example, if the amount in dispute is $100 and it is resolved $70 in favor of Buyer and $30 in favor of Sellers, then Sellers would bear 70% of the Audit Fees and Buyer would bear 30% of the Audit Fees).
Modification of Settlement Agreement Any modification to this Settlement Agreement shall be in writing and signed by the Parties.
Capital Adjustments (a) The existence of the Option shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Corporation or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Corporation's capital structure or the Corporation’s business, or any merger or consolidation of the Corporation or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred stock having a preference to or affecting the Corporation’s capital stock or the rights thereof, or the issuance of any securities convertible into any such capital stock or of any rights, options, or warrants to purchase any such capital stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation, any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Corporation’s assets or business, or any other act or proceeding of the Corporation, whether of a similar character or otherwise. (b) The securities with respect to which the Option is granted are shares of the $.001 par value common stock of the Corporation as presently constituted, but if and whenever, prior to the delivery by the Corporation of all the shares of the $.001 par value common stock with respect to which the Option is granted, the Corporation shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital readjustment, the payment of a stock dividend, or other increase or reduction of the number of shares of such common stock issued and outstanding without receiving compensation therefore in money, services, or property, the number of shares of such common stock then remaining subject to the Option shall (a) in the event of an increase in the number of outstanding shares of such common stock, be proportionately increased, and the cash consideration payable per share of such common stock shall be proportionately reduced; and (b) in the event of a reduction in the number of outstanding shares of such common stock, be proportionately reduced, and the cash consideration payable per share of such common stock shall be proportionately increased.
