Limitations on Distribution Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the General Partner shall not make a Partnership distribution to any Partner if such distribution would violate Section 17-607 of the Act or other applicable Law.
Further Limitations on Disposition Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, the Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until:
(1) There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or
(2) The Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the Company, the Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration under the Act or any applicable state securities laws; provided that no such opinion shall be required for dispositions in compliance with Rule 144 under the Act, except in unusual circumstances.
(3) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (1) and (2) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by the Holder to a partner (or retired partner) or member (or retired member) of the Holder in accordance with partnership or limited liability company interests, or transfers by gift, will or intestate succession to any spouse or lineal descendants or ancestors, if all transferees agree in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if they were the Holders hereunder.
Restrictions on Disposition The Stockholder hereby agrees, except as permitted in this Section 4(a) and Section 4(b) below, not to directly or indirectly, offer to sell, contract to sell, transfer, assign, cause to be redeemed or otherwise sell or dispose of any of the Parent Shares (collectively a "Disposition") received by the stockholder in connection with the Merger without the prior written consent of Cordiant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Agreement, the Stockholder shall have the right to transfer Parent Shares (i) to any Family Member, (ii) to the trustee or trustees of a trust solely (except for remote contingent interests) for the benefit of the Stockholder and/or one or more Family Members and/or a charitable organization (a "Family Member Trust"), (iii) to a foundation created or established by the Stockholder, or any other charitable organization, (iv) to a corporation of which the Stockholder and/or any Family Member and/or any Family Member Trust owns all of the outstanding capital stock, (v) to a limited liability company of which the Stockholder and/or any Family Member and/or any Family Member Trust owns all of the outstanding membership interests, (vi) to a partnership of which the Stockholder and/or any Family Member and/or any Family Member Trust owns all of the partnership interests, (vii) to the executor, administrator or personal representative of the estate of the Stockholder or any other Family Member, or (viii) to any guardian, trustee or conservator appointed with respect to the assets of the Stockholder, provided, that in the case of any such transfer, the transferee shall execute an agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (each such transfer, a "Permitted Transfer" and, collectively, the "Permitted Transfers"). For purposes of this Agreement, "Family Member" shall mean (a) the Stockholder's spouse, if living with the Stockholder, (b) any one of the following: the Stockholder's father, mother, issue, brother or sister, and the issue of a brother or sister, and (c) the spouse of any Family Member described in (b) above, if the spouse shall be living with that Family Member. The Stockholder hereby agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with Cordiant's transfer agent against the transfer of such Parent Shares except in compliance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stockholder may pledge, hypothecate or otherwise grant a security interest in all or a portion of the Parent Shares beneficially owned by him during the term of this Agreement; provided, however, that any Person receiving such Parent Shares shall be subject to all of the restrictions on Disposition of such Parent Shares imposed by this Agreement to the same extent as the Stockholder.
Limitations on Dispositions of Collateral The Debtor will not sell, transfer, lease, or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, or attempt, offer or contract to do so other than dispositions of Inventory in the ordinary course of the Debtor’s business; provided, however that the Debtor will be allowed to grant licenses to its products and related documentation in the ordinary course of business and to establish or provide for escrows of related intellectual property in connection therewith.
Restrictions on Dispositions Shareholder agrees that, from and after the date of this Agreement and through the Effective Time, he or she will not take any action that will alter or affect in any way the right to vote the Shares, except (i) with the prior written consent of Bancorp or (ii) to change such right from that of a shared right of Shareholder to vote the Shares to a sole right of Shareholder to vote the Shares.
Limitations on Debt Create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Debt except:
(a) the Obligations;
(b) Debt incurred in connection with a Hedging Agreement with a counterparty and upon terms and conditions (including without limitation interest rate) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
(c) Subordinated Debt;
(d) Debt existing on the Closing Date and not otherwise permitted under this Section 10.1 hereof, as set forth on Schedule 6.1(t) hereto and the renewal and refinancing (but not the increase at the aggregate principal amount thereof) thereof;
(e) purchase money Debt of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and Debt of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries incurred in connection with Capitalized Leases in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2,000,000 outstanding on any date of determination;

(g) Debt of the Non-U.S. Borrowers to Borrowers under loans and advances permitted by Section 10.4(d);
(h) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, unsecured Debt of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $500,000 at any time outstanding, provided that such Debt is not senior in right of payment to the payment of the Debt arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and
(i) Debt owing by an SPE in connection with the Excluded Projects, up to an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50,000,000; provided, that no agreement or instrument with respect to Debt permitted to be incurred by this Section 10.1 shall restrict, limit or otherwise encumber (by covenant or otherwise) the ability of any Subsidiary of any Borrower to make any payment to any Borrower or any other Subsidiary (in the form of dividends, intercompany advances or otherwise) for the purpose of enabling the Borrowers to pay the Obligations.
Limitations on Asset Sales The Parent shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Sale unless:
(1) the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets included in such Asset Sale; and
(2) at least 75% of the total consideration received in such Asset Sale or series of related Asset Sales consists of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of clause (2), the following shall be deemed to be cash:
(a) the amount (without duplication) of any Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) of the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary that is expressly assumed by the transferee in such Asset Sale and with respect to which the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is unconditionally released by the holder of such Indebtedness,
(b) the amount of any obligations received from such transferee that are within 60 days converted by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary to cash (to the extent of the cash actually so received), and
(c) the Fair Market Value of any assets (other than securities, unless such securities represent Equity Interests in an entity engaged solely in a Permitted Business, such entity becomes a Restricted Subsidiary and the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary acquires voting and management control of such entity) received by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary to be used by it in the Permitted Business. If at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is repaid or converted into or sold or otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then the date of such repayment, conversion or disposition shall be deemed to constitute the date of an Asset Sale hereunder and the Net Available Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with this Section 4.09. If the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary engages in an Asset Sale, the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary shall, no later than 360 days following the consummation thereof, apply all or any of the Net Available Proceeds therefrom to:
(1) repay any Indebtedness under the Credit Facilities and, in the case of any such Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility, effect a permanent reduction in the availability of such revolving credit facility;
(2) repay any Indebtedness which was secured by the assets sold in such Asset Sale; and/or
(3) invest all or any part of the Net Available Proceeds thereof in the purchase of assets (other than securities, unless such securities represent Equity Interests in an entity engaged solely in a Permitted Business, such entity becomes a Restricted Subsidiary and the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary acquires voting and management control of such entity) to be used by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in the Permitted Business. The amount of Net Available Proceeds not applied or invested as provided in this paragraph will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $10.0 million, the Issuer shall be required to make an Offer to Purchase from all Holders and, if applicable, redeem (or make an offer to do so) any Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer the provisions of which require the Issuer to redeem such Indebtedness with the proceeds from any Asset Sales (or offer to do so), in an aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness equal to the amount of such Excess Proceeds as follows:
(1) the Issuer shall (a) make an Offer to Purchase (a “Net Proceeds Offer”) to all Holders, and (b) redeem (or make an offer to do so) any such other Pari Passu Indebtedness, pro rata in proportion to the respective principal amounts of the Notes and such other Indebtedness required to be redeemed, the maximum principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be redeemed out of the amount (the “Payment Amount”) of such Excess Proceeds;
(2) the offer price for the Notes shall be payable in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date such Net Proceeds Offer is consummated (the “Offered Price”), and the redemption price for such Pari Passu Indebtedness (the “Pari Passu Indebtedness Price”) shall be as set forth in the related documentation governing such Indebtedness;
(3) if the aggregate Offered Price of Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by Holders thereof exceeds the pro rata portion of the Payment Amount allocable to the Notes, Notes to be purchased shall be selected on a pro rata basis; and
(4) upon completion of such Net Proceeds Offer in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the amount of Excess Proceeds with respect to which such Net Proceeds Offer was made shall be deemed to be zero. To the extent that the sum of the aggregate Offered Price of Notes tendered pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer and the aggregate Pari Passu Indebtedness Price paid to the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness is less than the Payment Amount relating thereto (such shortfall constituting a “Net Proceeds Deficiency”), the Issuer may use the Net Proceeds Deficiency, or a portion thereof, for general corporate purposes, subject to the provisions of this Indenture. The Issuer shall comply with applicable tender offer rules, including the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the purchase of Notes pursuant to a Net Proceeds Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.09, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.09 by virtue of this compliance.
Limitation on Disposition of Property Dispose of any of its Property (including, without limitation, receivables and leasehold interests), whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or, in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary, issue or sell any shares of such Restricted Subsidiary’s Capital Stock to any Person, except:
(a) the Disposition of (i) cash, Cash Equivalents or Investment Grade Securities or (ii) other Property that the Company (or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) reasonably determines is no longer used or useful in its business, has become obsolete, damaged or surplus or is replaced in the ordinary course of business, including the lease or sublease of excess or unneeded real property not constituting a sale and leaseback;

(d) the sale or issuance of any Restricted Subsidiary’s Capital Stock to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor or in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, to any other Restricted Subsidiary;
(e) Dispositions from (i) the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor to the Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor; provided that promptly after any such Disposition, all actions reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent shall be taken to insure the continued perfection and priority of the Liens created by the Security Documents on such Property and assets, (ii) from a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary or (iii) from a Loan Party to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party;
(f) discounts, adjustments or forgiveness of accounts receivable and other contract claims in the ordinary course of business or in connection with collection or compromise thereof;
(g) subject to the proviso below, unlimited Dispositions for Fair Market Value;

For the avoidance of doubt, any issuance or sale of Capital Stock of the Company shall not be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 7.05.
Limitations on Distributions Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make a distribution to any Member on account of its interest in the Company if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 of the Act or other Applicable Law.
