Additional Acquiring Funds In the event that an Acquiring Fund wishes to include one or more series in addition to those originally set forth on Schedule A, the Acquiring Fund shall so notify the Acquired Fund in writing, and if the Acquired Fund agrees in writing, such series shall hereunder become an Acquiring Fund, and Schedule A shall be amended accordingly.
Limited Condition Acquisitions Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, when calculating any applicable ratio or any basket based on Consolidated EBITDA or total assets, or determining other compliance with this Agreement (including the determination of compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, but excluding Section 4.02 to the extent set forth therein) in connection with a Specified Transaction undertaken in connection with the consummation of a Limited Condition Acquisition, the date of determination of such ratio or any basket based on Consolidated EBITDA or total assets, and determination of whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom or other applicable covenant shall, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Acquisition, an “LCA Election”), be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into (the “LCA Test Date”) and if, after such ratios and other provisions are measured on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other Specified Transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable Test Period ending prior to the LCA Test Date, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratios and provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided that no such acquisition shall constitute a Limited Condition Acquisition unless the Payment Conditions are satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis on the applicable LCA Test Date. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition, such ratios and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted hereunder and (y) such ratios and other provisions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related Specified Transactions. If the Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to any other Specified Transaction on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.
Consummation of Acquisition The Acquisition shall have been consummated (or shall be consummated substantially contemporaneously) for an aggregate purchase price (excluding assumption of Debt) not exceeding the amount set forth on Schedule 6.2(g) under the heading “Maximum Purchase Price of Target Company” pursuant to documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, no provision of the Merger Agreement shall have been waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in a manner that would have a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or a material adverse effect on the properties, business, operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole or the ability of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, the transaction fees and expenses for the Acquisition together with the fees referenced in Section 6.2(e)(iii) shall not exceed the amount set forth on Schedule 6.2(g) under the heading “Maximum Transaction Fees and Expenses of Acquisition”, and the Administrative Agent shall have received (or shall receive substantially contemporaneously) the following documents: (A) if counsel to the Target Company delivers an opinion to the Borrower in connection with Acquisition, a copy of such opinion, accompanied by reliance letters in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, (B) opinions from such special and local counsel as may be required by the Administrative Agent, (C) documents and other instruments as are customary for transactions of this type or as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request (including, without limitation, the analogous documents required to be delivered in Sections 6.2(b)(ii), (b)(iii), (b)(iv) and (d)(i) with respect to the Target Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective authorization to execute, deliver and perform the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, as applicable) and (D) such evidence as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request that the Acquisition does not violate the terms of the High-Yield Note Indenture.
Land Acquisition Reimbursement for the costs associated with acquiring interest and/or rights to real property (including access rights through ingress/egress easements, leases, license agreements, or other site access agreements; and/or obtaining record title ownership of real property through purchase) must be supported by the following, as applicable: Copies of Property Appraisals, Environmental Site Assessments, Surveys and Legal Descriptions, Boundary Maps, Acreage Certification, Title Search Reports, Title Insurance, Closing Statements/Documents, Deeds, Leases, Easements, License Agreements, or other legal instrument documenting acquired property interest and/or rights. If land acquisition costs are used to meet match requirements, Xxxxxxx agrees that those funds shall not be used as match for any other Agreement supported by State or Federal funds.
