Reasonable Efforts Each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause their respective controlled affiliates to, cooperate in good faith with all Governmental Entities and use their reasonable efforts to (A) cause the expiration of the notice periods under the HSR Act and any other Laws with respect to the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement, (B) resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby and (C) undertake any reasonable actions required to lawfully complete the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby. Except where prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements, Parent shall be entitled to lead any proceedings or negotiations with any Governmental Entity related to the foregoing, provided that it shall afford the Company the opportunity to participate therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor Parent shall be required to take (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not take without Parent’s consent) any action which (x) is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), business, assets, liabilities or results of operations of either Parent (or any of its subsidiaries), the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) or the Surviving Corporation, taken individually or in the aggregate, (any such action, a “Burdensome Condition”) or (y) is not conditioned on the consummation of the Merger. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the Contrary, neither the Company nor Parent shall be required to contest through litigation any objection, action or proceeding by any Governmental Entity.
Regulatory Filings; Reasonable Efforts (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Company, Parent and Sub shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents and approvals from Governmental Entities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Entities, if any) and the taking of all reasonable steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Entities, (ii) the delivery of required notices to, and the obtaining of required consents or waivers from, third parties and (iii) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Offer and the Merger and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement. Each of Parent and Sub agrees that, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, each of Parent and Sub shall not, and shall ensure that none of its subsidiaries or other Affiliates shall, take any action or propose, announce an intention or agree, in writing or otherwise, to take any action that would reasonably be expected to materially delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company and its Board of Directors shall, if any state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation is or becomes applicable to the Offer, the Merger, this Agreement or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, use all commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such statute or regulation on the Offer, the Merger, this Agreement and the other transactions contemplated hereby. The Company will use commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain any consent, approval, or waiver with respect to the Material Contracts such that no party will have a reasonable basis to maintain that the representations and warranties in Section 3.11 and clause “(ii)” of Section 3.17 are not true and correct.
(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the undertakings pursuant to this Section 6.6, each of Parent and the Company shall (i) provide or cause to be provided as promptly as practicable to Governmental Entities with regulatory jurisdiction over enforcement of any Antitrust Laws (each such Governmental Entity, a “Governmental Antitrust Entity”) information and documents requested by any Governmental Antitrust Entity or necessary, proper or advisable to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including preparing and filing any notification and report form and related material required under the HSR Act and any additional consents and filings under any Antitrust Laws as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement (but in no event more than ten (10) business days from the date hereof except by mutual consent confirmed in writing) and thereafter to respond as promptly as practicable to any request for additional information or documentary material that may be made under the HSR Act and any additional consents and filings under any Antitrust Laws; and (ii) use their commercially reasonable best efforts to take such actions as are necessary or advisable to obtain prompt approval of consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by any Governmental Entity. As used in this Agreement, “Antitrust Laws” means applicable federal, state, local or foreign antitrust, competition, premerger notification or trade regulation laws, regulations, orders, injunctions, judgments, decrees, rulings or other similar requirements enacted, adopted, promulgated or applied by a Governmental Entity.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with the receipt of any necessary governmental approvals or clearances (including under any Antitrust Law), nothing in this Agreement shall require Parent or its subsidiaries to, nor shall the Company or any Company Subsidiary without the prior written consent of Parent, agree or proffer to, divest, hold separate, or enter into any license or similar agreement with respect to, or agree to restrict the ownership or operation of, or agree to conduct or operate in a specified manner, any portion of the business or assets of Parent, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries.
(d) Subject to applicable Law relating to the exchange of information, the Company and Parent and their respective counsel shall (i) have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each shall consult the other on, any filing made with, or written materials to be submitted to, any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) promptly inform each other of any communication (or other correspondence or memoranda) received from, or given to, the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, or any other Governmental Antitrust Entity and (iii) promptly furnish each other with copies of all correspondence, filings and written communications between them or their subsidiaries or affiliates, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity or its respective staff, on the other hand, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company and Parent shall, to the extent practicable, provide the other party and its counsel with advance notice of and the opportunity to participate in any discussion, telephone call or meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filing, investigation or other inquiry in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to participate in the preparation for such discussion, telephone call or meeting. None of Parent, Sub or the Company shall commit to or agree with any Governmental Entity to stay, toll or extend any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act or applicable foreign competition Laws, without the prior written consent of the other party. The Company and Parent may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 6.6 as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.6, materials provided to the other party or its counsel may be redacted to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries.
Commercially Reasonable Efforts Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties will use its commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or desirable, or advisable under applicable laws, so as to permit consummation of the Purchase as promptly as practicable and otherwise to enable consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party to that end.
Agent Efforts Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, upon the receipt of an Issuance Notice, the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal sales and trading practices to place the Shares with respect to which the Agent has agreed to act as sales agent, subject to, and in accordance with the information specified in, the Issuance Notice, unless the sale of the Shares described therein has been suspended, cancelled or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement may modify an Issuance Notice at any time provided they both agree in writing to any such modification.
All Reasonable Efforts Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and to the fiduciary duties and obligations of the boards of directors of the parties hereto to their respective shareholders, as advised by their counsel, each of the parties to this Agreement shall use all reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations, or to remove any injunctions or other impediments or delays, legal or otherwise, as soon as reasonable practicable, to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
