Common use of MII Assumption Clause in Contracts

MII Assumption. Notwithstanding anything in any Existing Insurance Agreement or Existing Policy to the contrary, each B&W Entity that is a signatory hereto hereby transfers and assigns, and MII does hereby assume, effective as of the Assumption Time, the MII Obligations; and MII hereby agrees to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill and discharge any and all now existing and hereafter arising duties, terms, provisions, covenants, obligations and liabilities of any B&W Entity under the Existing Policies and Existing Insurance Agreements in respect of the MII Obligations (the “MII Assumption”). The Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of the ACE Affiliates, hereby consents to, and agrees to give full force and effect to, the MII Assumption. From and after the Assumption Time, the Company (and/or the applicable ACE Affiliate): (i) may enforce its rights under the Existing Policies and the Existing Insurance Agreements in respect of the MII Obligations against MII to the same extent such Person could, prior to the MII Assumption, enforce such rights against the applicable B&W Entity and (ii) releases each B&W Entity from its obligation to observe, pay, perform, satisfy, fulfill or discharge any such MII Obligations.
